A
A five year old dog named Kelsey has been praised as a hero for helping to save the life of her owner who slipped in the snow and broke his neck.
The man, Bob, was alone when he left his Michigan farmhouse on New Year's Eve to collect firewood. Expecting a journey of only several meters, Bob was wearing just long johns (衬裤), a shirt and slippers when he went outside, although the temperature was around -4 ℃.
After the accident, he was unable to move in the snow. Fortunately, Kelsey came to his assistance.
“I was shouting for help, but my nearest neighbor is about 400 meters away, and it was 10:30 pm,” Bob explained. But my Kelsey came. By the next morning, my voice was gone and I couldn't yell for help, but Kelsey didn't stop barking.
Kelsey's companion kept him warm by lying on top of him. She licked his face and hands to keep him awake. “Kelsey kept barking but never left my side,” Bob recalled. “She kept me warm. I knew I couldn't give up and that it was my choice to stay alive.”
Bob spent 20 hours in the freezing cold. When he finally lost consciousness, his dog kept barking. Finally, hearing the barking, Bob's neighbor discovered him at 6:30 pm on New Year's Day and called the emergency services at once. When Bob arrived in hospital, his body temperature was below 21℃. However, doctors were surprised to find that he didn't have any frostbite (冻疮). They believed it was because of Kelsey's determination to keep him warm. Dr Chaim Colen, the doctor who treated Bob, said, “Animals can help and his dog really saved him ... He was very fortunate.”
Bob said he was “enormously” grateful to both Dr Colen and his Kelsey. “They saved my life. They are truly heroes!”

Are African wild dogs really dogs What's the difference between African wild dogs and the dogs we know as pets For one thing, African wild dogs, which live in Africa, only have four toes, while domestic (驯养的) dogs and wolves have five. But you won't want to count for yourself, because they are truly wild animals.
“Wild dogs are not somebody's domestic dogs that ran away and didn't come back, although some people used to think that,” explains Dr McNutt, who studies these animals at Wild Dog Research Camp in the African country of Botswana. “They are actually Africa's wolves, and just like wolves, they do not make good pets. They need to be out in the wild doing what they are supposed to do—find the food they need to survive and feed their babies.” In fact, they travel so far that researchers have to use radio collars (颈圈) to keep track of them. The collars send out radio signals that tell people where the dogs are. No two wild dogs have the same pattern of coats, so it is easy to tell them apart.
African wild dogs are smart and sociable, like pet dogs. Adult dogs, male and female, are willing to take good care of young ones.
Millions of domestic dogs live on the planet, but there are probably fewer than 6,000 African wild dogs left. Humans hunt them and farmers who don't want them to go after cows and sheep poison them. Humans are also destroying the wild, natural habitat (栖息地) they need to survive in. Fortunately, today more farmers are finding other ways to protect their cows and sheep from African wild dogs instead of killing the animals.
5.Which of the following can explain why African wild dogs are different from domestic dogs
A.African dogs can live longer than domestic dogs.
B.African dogs have fewer toes than domestic dogs.
C.African dogs are much bigger in size than domestic dogs.
D.African dogs are much more dangerous than domestic dogs.
6.In Dr McNutt's view, African wild dogs ________.
A.are a kind of wolves
B.can be trained as pet dogs
C.actually are missing domestic dogs
D.generally are not used to living in groups
7.What suggestion does the author give in the last paragraph
A.Farmers should use domestic dogs to fight against wild dogs.
B.African wild dogs should be protected instead of being killed.
C.Farmers should take responsibility for feeding African wild dogs.
D.African wild dogs should be used to protect farmers' cows and sheep.
C
Many animals recognize their food because they see it. So do humans. When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know that you can eat it. You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.
Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda (大熊猫) eats only one particular type of bamboo (竹子). Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the choice. A kind of white butterfly (蝴蝶) will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet (多样化饮食). The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will be different depending on the season.
Humans have a very varied diet. We often eat food because we like it and not because it is good for us. In countries such as France and Britain, people eat food with too much sugar. This makes them overweight, which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right food, therefore, has become an area of study in modern life.
8.We can infer from the text that humans and animals ________.
A.depend on one sense in choosing food
B.are not satisfied with their food
C.choose food in similar ways
D.eat entirely different food
9.Certain animals change their choice of food when ________.
A.the season changes
B.the food color changes
C.they move to different places
D.they are attracted by different smells
10.We can learn from the last paragraph that ________.
A.food is chosen for a good reason
B.French and British food is good
C.some people have few choices of food
D.some people care little about healthy diet

Top Ways to Spend the Holiday Season with Pets
Taking a nap is a great way to refresh during the holidays, and a nap with your dog or cat (or both) is an excellent bonding opportunity.
Holiday time is here. The decorating, the shopping, the cooking, the cleaning, the wrapping ... 1
In the season's craziness,our furry family members tend to get ignored or over stimulated (过度刺激的). 2 But they don't have to: be sure to pay attention and give them a break from the activity when they need it and add them to the fun when they don't.
●Rest time.
If your pet seems stressed, have a safe place for him away from activity. Cats should have a quiet, cozy spot to sleep with food, water, and their litter box. 3 Be sure to have a soft area for sleep, a toy or two, water, and some food. But you might need a nap, too, to refresh for holiday festivities. So use this time to take one together.
● 4
Many Christmas tree farms welcome pets on a leash (皮带). Your pet will just love being with you outdoors while you share one of the season's most honored traditions—picking out the perfect tree. Just be sure to call the farm first to confirm that pets are welcome ... and you have a new annual tradition.
●Go to have a catch.
Give your pup a good run and wear him out ahead of when company visits. 5 This way, he'll be happy and relaxed when greeting guests. Dog parks are ideal as pups can run, chase tennis balls, and socialize with others. Always remember to walk to and from the park with your pup on a leash and poop bags in hand.
A.Keep pets on a leash.
B.Dogs love playing catch.
C.Dogs might also need one.
D.But where do our pets fit in
E.Pick out the family Christmas tree.
F.As a result, pets can experience restlessness and anxiety.

第二节 概要写作(25分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
The mind of an elephant should not be underestimated. They are intelligent animals born with both excellent memory and artistic talent. Elephants eat about 495 pounds of vegetarian food a day. They spend about 16 hours a day eating, but must walk about 4 miles a day in search of food. The average elephant lives about 70 years, and its sharp memory allows it to remember places where it has found food as long as 30 years earlier, even as a baby.
In an elephant's travels, it comes across other elephants also looking for food. Some elephants are friendly, and some are not so nice. Elephants remember every elephant they have ever met. They can even recognize an elephant they perhaps haven't seen for 30 years. They immediately remember whether this elephant is an enemy or a friend.
When elephants are not searching for food, they sometimes produce art in the sand with their trunks. They seem to enjoy just relaxing and painting in the sand. One day, an elephant zookeeper noticed this and gave an elephant a paintbrush filled with red paints to see if the elephant would paint on a canvas (画布). Sure enough, it did, and since then elephants in most zoos have been given paintbrushes, paints, and canvases. The resulting abstract art has been sold for high prices around the world. The money goes to support the elephants in the zoos. Most felt that the elephants were only capable of painting abstracts. However, they have been trained to paint trees, flowers, and other things in nature. This has enabled us to understand “elephant genius” even more.

Golden Monkeys
Golden monkeys live mainly in China. They are protected by Chinese government. Their fur is golden and a bit grey. Their tails are as long as their bodies. The male golden monkeys are big and strong while the female ones are much smaller. Golden monkeys live in forests which are 1,500-3,000 meters above the sea level, and they like living in groups. They feed on fruit, nuts, tree leaves and so on.
Now the number of golden monkeys is decreas-ing. Our government has built some nature reserves to protect them. We hope people can stop hunting golden monkeys and that more and more people can realize the importance of protecting them.
