Maybe its next move will be to roll off a leaf and play dead or stand up to a bird about 100 times its size.Maybe it’s letting you know that the weather will be good tomorrow.Who knows?‎ ‎29.Ladybugs were brought from Australia to California in the 1800s to .‎ A.add more ladybugs to area B.report the weather for farmers C.act as a lucky sign of good crops D.save orange trees by eating insects ‎30.From the passage we know that .‎ A.it’s the adult ladybug that eats most of the harmful insects B.ladybugs often roll off a leaf and play dead to attack the birds C.ladybugs can give off a dangerous fluid to protect themselves D.the baby ladybug mainly eats mites,aphids,mealy bugs,and oranges ‎ - 11 -‎ ‎31.The underlined phrase“stand up to”most probably means .‎ A.watch B.support C.save D.fight ‎ ‎32.Which of the following may the author agree with?‎ A.Ladybugs do harm to nature. B.Ladybugs are unusual insects.‎ C.Ladybugs are dangerous insects. D.Ladybugs eat more than they should.‎ D A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep.But now a study has found it really does help people nod off—if it is milked from a cow at night.‎ Researchers have discovered that "might milk" contains more melatonin（褪黑激素）,which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.‎ The study,by researchers from Seoul,South Korea,involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows miked both during the day and at night.‎ Those given night milk,which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin,were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime,according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.‎ Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.‎ While the effect of cows’ milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now,taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.‎ Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax.‎ Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening.The more fat you take in before bedtime,the greater burden you will put on your body at night.‎ ‎33.Which of the following is true of melatonin according to the text?‎ A.It’s been tested on mice for ten times.
