I think the situation all over the world is really awful(极坏的). Firstly, I feel so sorry for the giant panda. It's one of the most popular animals in the world. We learned that pandas mainly live on bamboo, and that a panda can eat half its body's weight(重量) of bamboo in 24 hours! That's a lot of bamboo. I think we should try to do more to stop cutting down the forests. We would be so sad if they became extinct(灭绝的) forever(永远). Secondly, what we should try to protect more is the Chinese alligator(短吻鳄). These creatures(生物) live in some parts of eastern China. They live in freshwater(淡 水的) rivers and lakes but the water in some places isn't clean enough for them to live in. It's really dirty in fact. The government should stop factories from polluting the lakes and rivers. 5 If we protect these beautiful animals in China, more people may come to China to visit our beautiful country, especially to see the quieter areas in the country. Now most visitors just see the cities. I hope you will encourage(鼓励) more people to think about such an important subject. Yours， Huang Jing 56. What's Huang Jing's project at school about? A. Choosing heroes. B. Writing letters. C. Helping to protect animals. D. Animals in danger. 57. If a panda is 100 kilos, how much bamboo can it eat in 24 hours? A. 50 kilos. B. 200 kilos. C. 150 kilos. D. We are not sure. 58. What does the underlined word “polluting” mean? A. 保护 B. 危害 C. 清理 D. 污染 59. What's the main problem in the places that the Chinese alligators live in? A. People cut down most of the bamboo and the alligators can't find enough food to eat. B. People kill too many alligators to eat their meat. C. People put most of the alligators in cages of the zoos. D. People pollute the water of the rivers and lakes there and the alligators can't find enough clean water. B The long trunk of an elephant is a wonderful example of skill. The neck of four­footed animals is usually long, to make them reach their food without difficulty, but the elephant has a short neck, to make him more easily support the weight of his huge head and heavy teeth. His long trunk lets him get his food easily. The trunk of an elephant is to him what the neck is to other animals. It is also a 6 nose to him, for at the end of it there is an empty place like a cup, and in the bottom of the cup are two holes, and the animal smells and breathes through them. It is an arm and a hand too, so that it has been said that the elephant carries his nose in his hand, and it might also have been said that he breathes by his hand. At the end of the trunk, there is a strange part, about five inches long, which forms a finger. With this finger the animal can pick up the smallest piece of money from the ground, and he has been taught to make marks like letters with a pen. The trunk of a full­grown elephant is about eight feet long. The elephant has such great strength that he can knock down a man with it. 60. The elephant has a short neck to support ____. A. his leg B. his body C. his arm D. his head and teeth 61. The trunk of the elephant helps him get his ____ easily. A. side B. tail C. food D. ear 62. The trunk of the elephant takes the place of the following except ____. A. a neck B. a nose and a finger C. an arm and a hand D. a leg 63. How does the elephant smell? Through two holes ____. A. in the bottom of the cup B. at the beginning of the trunk C. in his head D. in his face C People sometimes like to read stories of dogs very much. They think that dogs are much cleverer than cats，sheep，cows or other animals in their homes. One of my close friends，Bob，has a very large dog named Jack. Every Sunday afternoon，Bob and Jack have a walk in the park nearby. Jack likes these walks very much. One Sunday afternoon，I paid a visit to my friend. I stayed there for a long time and my friend and I had much more to talk with each other than ever before. Soon it 7 was time for them to take a walk in the park. We forgot it. Jack became worried about it. He walked around the room several times and then sat down in front of me and looked at me. But we still paid no attention(注意) to him. I went on talking with my friend. At last，Jack could not wait any longer. He went out of the room and came back a few minutes later. He sat down in front of me again. But this time，he held my hat in his mouth. Suddenly，I understood what Jack meant and so did my friend. 64. How many people are there in this story? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. 65. Jack ____. A. is a close friend of mine B. enjoys walking in the park every Sunday afternoon C. has many close friends D. enjoys talking in the room 66. Jack was worried because ____. A. he wanted to eat something B. it was Sunday afternoon again C. he was not feeling well D. he wanted his master(主人) to take him for a walk 67. Jack took my hat in his mouth to show that ____. A.

Do you know that carrier pigeons (鸽子) can be trained to help people too? Here are some examples. Mailman Carrier pigeons can be trained to carry messages to people. The note is placed 8 into a small can (金属罐). The can is tied to the pigeon's leg, Then the pigeon flies off with the note. Lifeguard From high up in the sky, especially trained pigeons can spot (发现) orange life jackets in the ocean. Sometimes it is difficult for humans to spot people lost at sea, especially when the weather is bad. However, pigeons can fly quickly over a large area of water to look for people. Spy Many years ago, carrier pigeons were used to help our country during wars (战争). “ Spy pigeons” had small cameras that were tied to their feet, As a pigeon flew over enemy (敌人) land, the camera took photos of the land below. This would allow our soldiers to see where the enemies were and what they were doing. So next time you see a pigeon, stop and watch it closely. What might look like an ordinary bird to most people, might actually be helpful. 68. Which part of the carrier pigeon is the can tied to? A. The pigeon's back. B. The pigeon's head. C.

Tigers wait until it is dark，and then they go out to look for their food. When a tiger sees an animal，it moves very quietly，and then jumps on the animal to kill it. Sometimes it can take a tiger several days to finish eating its kill. The tiger eats until it's full，and then it covers the dead animal with leaves. Later，when the tiger is hungry again，it comes back to eat some more. Tigers are different from the others in the cat family. They like water，and they often jump into rivers to swim. Some tigers live in very cold places like North Korea ， Eastern Russia ， and Northeast China. Other tigers live in warmer places—India and parts of Southeast Asia. All tigers are in danger. People killed them to eat their meat，use their skins for clothes，and their bodies for medicine. In addition，there is also less and less land for tigers to live on.
