　　The honey guide does not actually like honey，but it does like the wax(蜂蜡)in the beehives (蜂房). The little bird cannot reach this wax, r attention, it flies through the forest, waiting from time to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest.When they finally arrive at the nest, the_follower reaches in to get at the delicious honey as the bird patiently waits and watches.Some of the honey，and the wax，always falls to the ground，and this is when the honey guide takes its share.

　　Scientists do not know why the honey guide likes eating the wax，but it is very determined in its efforts to get it.The birds seem to be able to smell wax from a long distance away.

　　1．Why is it difficult to find a wild bees' nest?

　　A．It's small in size.

　　B．It's hidden in trees.s special in the way________．r

　　【语篇解读】 　[细节理解题。根据文章第一段第四句Often以及第二段的第二句The little bird cannot reach this wax inside the bees' nest.可知，由于蜂房高居树上并且隐藏在树丛中，所以它们不容易被发现，因此B项正确。]　[词义猜测题。对于画线部分的前一个句子Once it has their attention该句中them指the curious animal or person所以下句中的the follower也指的是the curious animal or person即“寻找蜂蜜者”所以C项正确。]　[推理判断题。根据文章的描述蜂蜜向导鸟寻找蜂蜜是通过吸引人或动物来帮助它们得到自己需要的蜂蜡对于动物来讲它们懂得利用外力来达到自己的目的这种方式是很特别的。蜂蜜向导鸟通过这种方式找到自己的食物所以A项是正确的。]　[标题概括题。本文主要介绍了蜂蜜向导鸟D项(蜂蜜爱好者的帮助者)意义正确。A项意为“野生蜜蜂”；B项意为“蜂蜡和蜂蜜”；C项意为“非洲养蜂”三者均不能表达出文章的主旨。]冲击“211”(长难句分析) to time for the curious animal or person as it leads them to the nest.

　　分析　句子的主干是：①...it flies through the forest状语从句：②Once_it_has_their_attention状语从句：③...as it leads them to the nest, 分词短语作状语。译文　④一旦引起了他们的注意它就会飞越森林并且在引领他们朝蜂巢前行的途中它还会不时地停下来等一等这些好奇的动物或者人。分析　这是一个并列主从复合句主句They_will_arrive_and_will_enter_ churches。状语从句⑥...whenever_a_beekeeper_is_taking_honey；状语从句⑦...when_beeswax_candles_are_being_lit．译文　⑧每当养蜂人从蜂箱采蜜的时候它们(小鸟)都会立刻到来而且每当蜂蜡在点着的时候它们都甚至飞进教堂。B 根据短文内容从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。__1__If we compare a human brain to a hard disc, what the scientists are doing is to make better use of the hard disc.

　　As far as I am concerned，I don't think what some of the people do in their spare time is right.Games and money cannot bring us real happiness and wealth.Health is the most important thing for us and it can help us to do something that we want to do.We should all remember：Exercise one hour a day
