Dr. Ellen Bronson of the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore always wanted to work with animals. Unlike many animal-loving little girls, though, her first idea was to be a naturalist. If a naturalist is someone who sits in the woods and observes animals and takes notes, then that’s exactly what she was doing at the time.
·15·莲山课件http://www.5ykj.com/
莲山课件http://www.5ykj.com/
Dr. Bronson grew up “in the middle of nowhere”, and her parents didn’t let her watch TV. “So I spent a lot of time hanging out in the woods because there was not a lot to do otherwise,” she says. “I had a funny notebook that my parents still have, where each page is about a certain animal.”
When she got a little older, being an animal doctor seemed like a better choice than working with animals in the forest, and the success in giving medical help to them satisfied her hugely, but she says that even the cases that don’t work out as well can be meaningful. “You also have the failures, which are hard at the time, but they help not just you but the whole zoo learn,” She says.
And, of course, another advantage of the job is getting to work with really cool animals. “I really like the animals that feed on meat — they’re very tough, and you can get them through hard times,” she says.
Finally, another advantage of her job is how often she gets to work with an animal over its life. “We’re there doing medical examination when they’re born, we watch them grow up,” she says. “And we watch them as they age. We help them age peacefully and help them be pain-free, and then we’re also there when they die. That is something very special.”
24. From the passage, we can learn that Dr. Ellen Bronson spent her childhood in .
A. a place without a name B. a very distant place
C. the center of a city D. the middle of a certain place
25. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. Giving animals medical help is always Ellen’s dream.
B. Even failures can also mean something to Ellen.
C. Failures in work are hard for Ellen to accept.
D. Observing animals gives Ellen greater satisfaction.
26. In her work with animals, she can .
A. earn fame and respect from her work.
B. realize her dream of becoming a naturalist.
C. take care of many animals from birth to death.
D. keep all the animals in peace and free from pain.
27. Which of the following best describes Dr. Bronson?
A. Generous. B. Well-educated. C. Grateful. D. Caring.

For many years, Bruce Bexler dreamed of going where no human had gone before. He wanted to cut a path through unexplored lands and discover rare, exotic species.
That might sound like an impossible dream, but Bexler turned it into a reality.
In December 2015, he and a team of Australian and American scientists ventured into an isolated tropical rain forest on the island of New Guinea. They were the first people ever to enter the mist-covered region. “As time was limited, we were dropped in by helicopter. Once we were on the ground, there were no trails anywhere; it was really hard to get around,” Bexler says.
Within minutes of landing, the team spotted a black chicken-like bird with strange orange skin hanging from its neck. The scientists soon determined that the unusual creature was a type of honeyeater — the first new bird species to be sighted on New Guinea in 60 years.
The honeyeater wasn’t the only surprise for the scientists. They discovered more than 40 previously unknown plant and animal species — 13 birds of paradise, 20 frogs, four butterflies, and five palms. “We were like kids in a candy store,” Bexler recalls. “Everywhere we looked, we saw amazing things we had never seen before.”
The newfound species didn’t shy away from the scientists. Two long-nosed echidnas — primitive egg-laying mammals — let the visitors pick them up and take them back to camp to study them. An echidna looks like a hedgehog and is also called a spiny anteater.
Bexler thinks the animals weren’t scared because they had never seen humans before. “In almost all parts of New Guinea, animals are hunted for food, and because of this, they are very cautious of people,” he explains. “This area gives scientists a place where they can go to study the behaviours of animals that have not yet learned to be afraid of people.”
Scientists believe the area is probably the largest untouched forest in Asia. Local people called Kwerba hunt and collect plants from the outer-edges of the forest but told Bexler that not even their ancestors had gone so far into the woods. The wooded area is approximately a 10-day walk from the nearest village.
Bexler and his team did not have enough time during the expedition to study the area completely. They hope to return and expect to record many more undiscovered species. “We just scratched the surface,” Bexler says. “Anyone who goes there will come back with a mystery.”

28. Which word best describes Bruce Bexler?
A. Adventurous. B. Cautious. C. Optimistic. D.Thorough.
29. What does Bruce Bexler mean in Paragraph 5 when he says the scientists “were like kids in a candy store”?
A. They didn’t have enough food and were hungry.
B. They were very excited about what they saw.
C. They were misbehaving like naughty children.
D. They knew that if they kept searching, they’d find sugar.
30. Why did some of the animals allow the scientists to pick them up?
A. The scientists seemed to be very friendly.
B. The scientists were skilled in handling animals.
C. The animals had been well-trained by the local people.
D. The animals had no experience or fear of people.
31. What can we conclude about the area Bruce Bexler explored?
A. The best way to explore the area is by helicopter.
B. The area has not been visited by scientists for many years.
C. The area still contains many plants and animals unknown to science.
D. The locals are unwilling to allow the scientists to enter the deep woods.

Petrol and diesel cars may still dominate our roads, but their days are numbered. A recent university study found that current electric cars could be used for 87 per cent of daily car journeys in the US. That figure could rise to 98 per cent by 2020.
One hurdle to the widespread adoption of electric cars has been ‘range anxiety’ — drivers’ concerns about running out of juice on a journey. While petrol stations are conveniently located across national road systems, the necessary network of electric charging stations is still being developed. That said, charging points are becoming increasingly common throughout the USA.
Attitudes towards electric vehicles have changed quite considerably over the last few years. Not that long ago, electric cars were met with distrust, and their large price tags drove customers away. Thanks to
·15·莲山课件http://www.5ykj.com/
莲山课件http://www.5ykj.com/
improvements in battery capacity, recharging times, performance and price, the current generation of electric cars are starting to persuade critics. Plug-in cars will soon give internal combustion engine models a run for their money.
As well as advancements on the road, electric vehicles are taking to the seas and skies. Electric boats are among the oldest methods of electric travel, having enjoyed several decades of popularity from the late 19th to the early 20th century before petrol-powered outboard motors took over. Now, the global drive for renewable energy sources is bringing electric boats back. Steps towards electric air travel are also being made, with Airbus and NASA among the organisations developing and testing battery powered planes. The experiments could soon make commercial electric flight a reality.
Electric vehicles do not produce any emissions. Were the US to act on the study’s findings and replace 87 per cent of its cars with electric vehicles, it would reduce the national demand for petrol by 61 per cent. However, because of the production processes and the generation of electricity required to charge these vehicles, they cannot claim to be completely emission-free. That said, as many countries continue to increase their use of renewable energy sources, electric vehicles will become even cleaner.
32. Which is the best title for this passage?
A. My Dream Car B. History of Electric Cars
C. Problems with Petrol Cars D. Driving into the Future
33. As used in Paragraph 2, the underlined word “hurdle” means _______.
A. aim B. barrier C. consequence D. step
34. In the past, why did many people refuse to buy the electric cars?
A. They were not good value.
B. They were very poorly made.
C. They were not widely promoted.
D. They couldn’t travel at a high speed.
35. What is the function of Paragraph 4?
A. To introduce the history of electric travel.
B. To explain why the world needs more electric cars.
C. To show why more people have interest in electric cars.

In my village a lot of children have left school for many different reason. Some families are so poor to send their children to school, so their kids have to earn money to support their families. There are also many parents which do not think it useless to send their children to school. They prefer to have their children do something else rather than to let them go to school. I feel worried this. I thought every child should have the opportunity to receive education. And it is necessary of us to care about the children, because one day they will play a important part in the construction of our country. So ways must be found to stop children from leave off their studies.
