The snowy owl (雪鸮) is a white-colored owl with many unique characteristics. This bird bears a pure white appearance (only the male), with a rounded head, and black bill. While the male is actually a pure white individual, the female and young ones have a darker appearance with dusky spots. The female owl never attains complete whiteness in her lifetime. As young owls get older, they get whiter, losing their heavy stripes (条纹) and dark spots. This bird is between 18 to 20 inches long. Its wingspan is 49 to 59 inches. It weighs between 3. 5 to 6. 5 pounds.
The snowy owl lives in the regions of Greenland, Iceland, Canada, and the northern parts of USA. Carolus Linnaeus was the first person to classify this bird. Apart from being the heaviest owl in North America, it is also the official bird of Quebec. It is known by other names such as “the Arctic Owl” or “the Great White Owl”. The reason for this bird ’s adaptation to the cold temperatures of the Arctic Circle is its splendidly beautiful, white, and thick feathers. These feathers help it to survive the extreme cold and develop a perfect camouflage (伪装) in the “white” of its Arctic habitat.
The snowy owl is a very patient hunter, and it can sit in one place for hours. Gifted with great hearing and keen eyesight, it is known to be an efficient and clever hunter. It is not difficult for it to track down its prey, which might be barely visible under thick plants or snow cover. Before soaring off in pursuit, the bird waits patiently and identifies its potential prey. Once the prey comes within the proper range, it lays its attack with its sharp-hooked claws. It hunts both during the day and at night.
5. What can we conclude about the snowy owl from the first two paragraphs

C. It has a white appearance with black spots.
D. The female owl is whiter than the male one.
6. Why can the snowy owl adapt to the cold climate of the Arctic Circle
A. Thanks to its living areas.
B. Because of its special feathers.
C. As a result of its clever mind.
D. Owing to its strong wings.

If you have ever done competitive sports, you will know that starting a new season means a lot of hard work and practice. 1 Here are a few ways to make sure that you ’re ready for the first day.
2 Ask your coach, gym teacher or trainer for some advice before writing your plan. Besides, write down how long you have worked out and what activity you have done.
Ask your coach if you aren ’t sure what you need. New equipment can be expensive, so think about using some second-hand equipment if it ’s available. Brothers, sisters and friends can be great sources of used equipment. 3 You can ask your coach to take a look at it before the first day of practice. If you are a returning player, take out all your equipment, try it on and make sure that it still fits and works.
4 Sports camps can help new and experienced players brush up on skills before the season starts. College players, coaches or other professionals usually teach in the camps. Many schools and colleges offer various sports camps during the summer and on the weekend during the school year.
Your school or team will probably require a physical check before allowing you to participate. Because everyone needs to get checked at the beginning of the season, doctors tend to be busy those times of the year. Therefore, set up an appointment with the doctor earlier. 5
A. Set realistic goals.
B. You can also consider a sports camp.
C. Just make sure that it ’s very clean and safe to use.
D. It ’s also normal to feel a little nervous about starting.
E. Making the team and getting in shape are great goals.

If you have ever done competitive sports, you will know that starting a new season means a lot of hard work and practice. 1 Here are a few ways to make sure that you ’re ready for the first day.
2 Ask your coach, gym teacher or trainer for some advice before writing your plan. Besides, write down how long you have worked out and what activity you have done.
Ask your coach if you aren ’t sure what you need. New equipment can be expensive, so think about using some second-hand equipment if it ’s available. Brothers, sisters and friends can be great sources of used equipment. 3 You can ask your coach to take a look at it before the first day of practice. If you are a returning player, take out all your equipment, try it on and make sure that it still fits and works.
4 Sports camps can help new and experienced players brush up on skills before the season starts. College players, coaches or other professionals usually teach in the camps. Many schools and colleges offer various sports camps during the summer and on the weekend during the school year.
Your school or team will probably require a physical check before allowing you to participate. Because everyone needs to get checked at the beginning of the season, doctors tend to be busy those times of the year. Therefore, set up an appointment with the doctor earlier. 5
A. Set realistic goals.
B. You can also consider a sports camp.
C. Just make sure that it ’s very clean and safe to use.
D. It ’s also normal to feel a little nervous about starting.
E. Making the team and getting in shape are great goals.
F. Start by writing an exercise plan if you don ’t have one.
G. That can give the doctor plenty of time to fill out your paperwork.
