Thirty-two cases of illegal hunting or trading wild animals have been uncovered involving 33 suspects since a crackdown against illegal wildlife trade was launched on April 10.
Beijing police seized 74 wild animals grouped in China into the first-grade and second-grade state protected animals, including African grey parrots and cockatoos, as well as nearly 50 wild birds and 21 pangolin scales.

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
A. It is a bird with pure white feathers.
B. It is a bird which is big and heavy.
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.
7. What does the underlined expression “track down” mean
A. Chase. B. Find.
C. Attract. D. Recognize.
8. What does the passage mainly talk about
A. The brief introduction of the snowy owl.
B. The snowy owl is the heaviest bird in the world.
C. The snowy owl is first classified by Carolus Linnaeus.
D. The difference between the Arctic owl and the snowy owl.

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.

A small insect is getting a lot of attention in the United States. The rusty patched bumblebee (大黄蜂) is the first of its species to be declared endangered in the lower 48 states — meaning every state except Alaska and Hawaii. The rusty patched bumblebee is named for a rust-colored line on its back.
The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced this month it was adding the bee to its endangered species list. The insects are “on the brink of extinction, ” according to the service. It said the bees were once found in 28 states. But there now are only small populations remaining in 13 states. The government agency will make a plan to help the dying bees recover. The agency said that such a plan might help other insects, like butterflies.
U. S. officials think land owners can take small steps to help the rusty patched bumblebee. They say land owners can be friendlier towards bees by using native plants in their gardens. The insects directly fertilize many kinds of fruit and vegetable crops. And they fertilize grain crops used to feed cattle and milk cows. It costs billions of dollars to duplicate the job the bees do for free. Land owners are also being urged to cut back on their use of pesticide products. The officials also suggest that gardeners leave their plants alone at the end of the summer instead of cutting them. That way, the bees will have a place to live over the winter.
The Fish and Wildlife Service says the rusty patched bumblebee was added to the endangered species list partly because of habitat loss. Other reasons were disease, pesticides and climate change. Officials are worried that other bees will suffer, too. Another species of bees in Hawaii is also endangered.
24. How many states declared the rusty patched bumblebee endangered
A. 13. B. 28. C. 48. D. 50.
25. Which one is harmful to the rusty patched bumblebee
A. Planting native plants.
B. Reducing the use of pesticide products.
C. Leaving plants alone.
D. Cutting out plants regularly.
26. What can we know about the rusty patched bumblebee according to the text
A. All the states declared it as endangered species.
B. It is named for a rust-colored line on its belly.
C. It is beneficial to land owners.
D. It is endangered mainly because of habitat loss.
27. What ’s the best title for the passage
A. Bumblebee added to U. S. endangered species list
B. Why bumblebee is on the brink of extinction
C. Take steps to help bumblebee
D. The benefits of protecting bumblebee
C
On Saturday 24 August 1918, it was raining cats and dogs and thundering over a city called Sunderland on the northeast coast of England. The storm lasted for only about ten minutes. People were surprised to see that it was not just rainwater falling from the sky. There were fish falling down, too! People came out to find out what was happening. They could not believe their own eyes. There were thousands of fish—sand eels—lying on the ground. They were about seven centimeters long, and all were frozen solid.
Sand eels swim together in large groups, often in sandy water, and are often found in large numbers in the North Sea, which reaches out to the east of Sunderland. How was it possible for these sand eels to fall from the sky and land on Sunderland
Scientists believed the heavy thunderstorm that afternoon may have caused a waterspout. Waterspouts can be formed when strong winds move quickly in a circle over water. They are so powerful; anything less than one meter in length can be taken into them and forced into the clouds. The clouds carry whatever has been taken into them for long distances — sometimes over 150 kilometers. It ’s very cold up there and everything soon freezes solid.
For hundreds of years there have been reports of small animals being taken into the sky through waterspouts. In 2009, dead tadpoles rained down on the city of Nanao in Japan. In 2012, fifty kilos of prawns fell from the sky over Sri Lanka. In 2017, fish fell on the coastal city of Tampico In Mexico.
It must be a very strange experience to see fish raining down on you. It would probably hurt if one fell on your head! With climate change, global warming and many reports of terrible natural disasters, will the time ever come when it may really begin to rain cats and dogs
28. What was the rain like on 24 August 1918
A. It was very heavy.
B. It fell around England.
C. It lasted quite a long time.
D. It caused many human deaths.
29. What do we know about the sand eels that landed on Sunderland
A. They were few in number.
B. They came in different sizes.
C. They were still alive when landing.
D. They probably came from the North Sea.
30. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. Clouds.
B. Waterspouts.
C. Strong winds.
D. The waters of the sea.
31. In the end, what does the author probably care most about
A. Our health.
B. Our environment.
C. The wild animals.
D. The news reports.
D
More than 100 scientists from 25 countries have traveled to faraway places to collect wild crop seeds(种子) in an effort to help battle climate change.
The scientists, who have been compared to the heroes of the “Indiana Jones” movies, traveled on foot, four-wheeled vehicles(交通工具), boats, horses and even elephants to reach faraway areas. They faced extreme heat, dust, and danger from wild animals. At last, they collected 4, 644 seeds of 371 wild relatives of 28 world crops, many of which are said to be endangered.
The Crop Trust, an organization that works to save different kinds of crops, is directing the project. The group is working in partnership with Britain ’s Royal Botanic Gardens and Millennium Seed Bank. Additional financial support comes from Norway. The project is believed to be the largest organized international effort yet to collect and protect crops ’ wild relatives. Hannes Dempewolf is a scientist and the head at the Crop Trust. He said“What these seed collectors went through in the field resembles scenes from an Indiana Jones movie. ”
Some crops are threatened because of destruction of forests, climate change and expanded cities. The newly-found wild seeds have developed so plants can grow in extreme temperatures, poor soils, and even in low rainfall areas.
A United Nations report says that food production is at risk because of a shortage of rain and other weather extremes connected to climate change. The U. N. Food and Agriculture Organization says that the number of plant species is quickly decreasing and people are depending on fewer species for food. Those wild seeds could be important in feeding a growing human population in some areas and offer a largely unused source of diversity(多样性) to crops.
32. What does the second paragraph show
A. Collecting seeds is not an easy job.
B. The scientists ’ story is made into a movie.
C. The wild seeds are in danger of extinction.
D. The scientists can choose from many vehicles.
33. What does the underlined word “resembles”in the third paragraph mean
A. Depends on. B. Looks like.
C. Turns out. D. Refers to.
34. What is the advantage of the newly-found wild seeds
A. They can increase green areas.
B. They can provide more nutrients
C. They can survive bad conditions.
D. They can improve existent crop seeds.
35. What is the meaning of the scientists collecting wild seeds
A. Bringing more plant species to the world.
B. Helping farmers improve their farming skills.
C. Knowing about the world ’s farming practices.
D. Helping battle climate change.

The year was 1989 and Chito was walking along the banks of the Reventazón River when he happened upon something very strange. There was a dying male crocodile(鳄鱼). When he stepped up to carefully examine the skinny reptile, he realized it had been shot through the head and then left eyes.
He knew, dangerous as it was, he couldn ’t leave the poor animal there, alone and helpless. Chito acted quickly, calling for the help of several brave friends to load the heavy reptile into his boat. He knew if he could heal it, he would then send it back into the wild. He named the huge reptile “Pocho”, which means strength and began to care for him in his own backyard.
The kind and helpful fisherman started to heal Pocho with medicine, food, and more importantly, lots of care and attention. Chito fed the crocodile a steady diet of chicken and fish. He bought medicine to prevent infection(感染) and even slept by his side at night.
Affection was one of the most important factors. Chito gave him kisses and hugs. He talked to him and petted him. “The crocodile needed my love to regain the will to live, ” he said. In time, Pocho improved enough to returned to normal health. It was time for him to return to his own river in the wild. Chito and his friends loaded the crocodile back into his boat and set him free in a nearby river. The two parted ways and Chito returned home alone.
注意: 续写词数应为150左右。
Chito awoke the next morning, and walked outside.

【参考范文】
Chito awoke the next morning, and walked outside. To his surprise, a crocodile was sleeping in his backyard. He recognized it at the first sight: it was Pocho. This crocodile had swum down the river and followed him home quietly. It seemed to Chito that Pocho had made its choice. It wanted to live with the man who had saved its life. Chito felt an unspeakable feeling that resonated in the heart of a father as he looked upon Pocho.
A closer relationship was formed between Pocho and Chito. They are inseparable now. Every day Chito wades into the chest-deep water in his little lake and calls out to his friend, who appears from beneath the muddy depths to roll about and play with its keeper, and then Chito would kiss it. Pocho can understand Chito gradually. The unique friendship has drawn the attention of tourists from around the world; more and more tourists come into town and visit Chito and Pocho. In order to welcome guests, they have performed a weekly act in his own backyard before hundreds of tourists.
