Scientific experiments can sometimes go wrong and when they do the results may range from the disastrous to the troubling. One such experiment took place in South America about fifty years ago. Whether its final consequences will cause serious damage or nothing more than a small trouble still remains to be seen.
The story began in 1956 when an American scientist working in Brazil decided to solve the problem of increasing the productivity of that country's bees. He imported a very active type of African bee from Tanzania and mated (交配) it with the more easy-going native variety to produce a new kind of bees. The new bees worked harder and produced twice as much honey. It seemed that Professor Kerr, for that was the scientist's name, had a total success on his hands.
Then things began to go wrong. For some reason as yet unseen, but perhaps as a result of something in their environment, the new bees began to develop extremely attacking personalities. They became bad-tempered and easy to be angry, attacked the native bees and drove them from their living places.
But worse was to follow. Having taken over the countryside, the new bees, with their dangerous stings (叮), began to attack its neighbours- cats, dogs, horses, chickens and finally man himself. Along period of terror began that has so far killed a great number of animals and about 150 human beings.
This would have been bad enough if the bees had stayed in Brazil. But now they are on the move, heading northwards in countless millions towards Central and North America; and moving at the alarming speed of 200 miles a year. The countries that lie in their path are naturally worried because it looks as if nothing can be done to stop them.
5. The results of the South American experiment___.
A. have caused a serious trouble
B. have proved to be wrong
C. are not yet certain
D. are not important
6. The experiment mentioned in this passage was designed to___.
A. increase the amount of honey in Brazil
B. make Brazilian bees more easy-going
C. increase the number of bees in Brazil
D. make African bees less active
7. Which of the following may be the cause of the new bees' attacking personalities?
A. Their production of honey.
B. Their hard work.
C. Their living environment.
D. Their bad temper.
8. The last paragraph implies that___.
A. the bees have been driven to Central and North America
B. the bees may bring about trouble in more countries
C. the bees
must be stopped from moving north
D. the bees prefer to live in Brazil
Ⅷ.短文改错(10分)
I saw an accident happened on my way home this afternoon.
A girl was crossing the street on a zebra crossing while a young
man drove a motorbike towards her. Then the young man saw the
girl and tried to stop, and he drove too fast to stop. He hit the
girl and fell off her motorbike. The girl was badly hurt and couldn't
move. The young man didn't know how to do. I ran to a phone -
box nearby and dialed 110 to call for the police. Soon the police
reached. They sent her to
hospital at once. One of the policemen

talking. It was very dangerous to drive very fast, I think.
