单选题{{B}}B{{/B}} It was summer in a small town in Illinois, and it was hot. Insects were all around. They were outside! They were inside! They bit people! They crawled on food! The people didn't know what to do. Some people wanted to kill the insects with sprays. Others said, "Insect spray will harm the birds and the butterflies. That is a bad idea." Someone said, "Birds can help. Purple martins eat insects. We need purple martins." The people made bird houses and put them along the streets. Soon purple martins built nests in the bird houses. They had baby birds and fed them insects. As the babies got bigger, they ate more and more. The people of the town were happy. They had found a good way to get rid of the insects and not harm the birds and the butterflies. Now there are bird houses in many places and hardly any more insects in the town.

单选题Mr John has paid much attention to his weight reduction programs. Just last year, for example, when he was the main speaker at the company dinner, he said he had put on 30 pounds instead of losing the forty he had promised he would. The year before that, he joined a health club. He exercised every day and ate less food. After three months however be began making excuses about why he couldn"t go there more often. As the health club failed to work, he joined Weight Watchers but stopped going because he was the only man there. And he hates following any of the diet programs. John"s latest action is to join a walking club to "walk off" the weight.

单选题To be sure, only children experience some things differently from those with siblings (兄弟姐妹 ). Many feel more pressure to succeed. In the absence of brothers and sisters, only children are also likely to look more exclusively to their parents as role models. In India, 19-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group for the tiny number of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to be against the myth (神话) that they're irresponsible (不负责任的). "People think we're pampered (娇惯) and spoiled," says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. "But I'd like to remind them how lonely it can get." Most only children, however, say they wish for siblings only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents. Britain's David Emerson, coauthor of the book, The Only Child, says that such a person bears terrible burden in having to make all the decisions alone. Emerson knows from experience: After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable (易受攻击的) to house breakers, to a new one with more safety, "The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it," he says. "Finally, I am left with that responsibility," In the future, more and more only children will likely face similar choices. With working mothers increasing, many families are finding they simply don't have the time, money or energy'to have more than one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the accusation (指责) made against them is unfair.

单选题Chicago is a great town. I love it. We have two baseball teams here, the Cubs and the White Sox. I like the Cubs. The White Sox are boring and they're losers, too. I never go to their games. But there's a lot more to Chicago than baseball. Look around, we're in the city now. This is Michigan Avenue. There's the John Hancock Center. That building is 100 storeys high! That's too high, if you ask me. If there is a fire on the 85th or 90th floor, how are the firemen going to put it out? There's no chance... Look over there. There's a large building. It's the Sears Tower. That building is 110 storeys high! ...Do you see those round buildings? Those buildings are the Marina City Apartments (flats). Those buildings have 60 floors each. Thousands of people in each one. Imagine that, all those people in two buildings. It's terrible to have so many neighbors. There's the Merchandise Mart. That's another big building. Do you know what's in the building? There are stores, restaurants, a bank, a post office, a radio station and a TV station. It's too crowded... Well, here we are. Remember, ask any cab driver about Chicago. We know everything about this town.
