A
Do you think of white when someone talks about a polar bear In fact, the polar bear does not have white fur. It just appears to be white. Polar bears have a very good sense of smell. It helps them to find food. During summer, polar bears sleep longer, because they are able to find their food more easily at night. Usually, after a meal, polar bears have a short sleep. A polar bear can have 2-3 babies at a time. They live with their mothers until they are about two-and-a-half years old.
However, polar bears will die out soon because of people. There are only 20,000 to 25,000 polar bears in the world. The ones that are left are trying to survive today. The number of polar bears is becoming smaller and smaller because of the loss of sea ice— polar bears mostly inhabit (居住于) the sea ice, not the land ice. This is happening because of global warming, pollution, hunting and so on.
Ordinary people don't care, but great people have the power and want to save tigers, fight for giant pandas and save polar bears. Ordinary people will wait, but great people will find a new world. For me, I will not be waiting. I will take the bus more often from now on. Join me and save the polar bears, and, of course, the tigers, the giant pandas and...

Animals do many different, amazing things to get through the winter. Some of them migrate. They travel to other places where the weather is warmer or where they can find food.
Many birds migrate in autumn. Because the trip can be dangerous, some travel in large groups. For example, geese fly in noisy, “V”-shaped groups. Other kinds of birds fly alone.
Some animals stay active in winter. They must change themselves as the weather changes. Many change their doing or their bodies. For example, snowshoe rabbits grow white fur to help them hide in the snow.
Food is hard to find in winter. Some animals, like mice, collect lots of food in autumn and store it to eat later. Some animals eat different kinds of food as the seasons change.
Some animals hibernate for part or all of the winter. This is a special, very deep sleep. The animal’s body temperature drops, and its heartbeat and breathing slow down. It uses very little energy. In autumn, these animals get ready for winter by eating much more food than in summer and storing it as body fat. They use this fat to keep them alive while hibernating.
Water makes good protection for many animals. When the weather gets cold, they move to the bottom of lakes and rivers. There, frogs and many fish hide under rocks or fallen leaves. Cold water holds more oxygen than warm water, and frogs can breathe through their skin.
Every type of insect has its own life cycle and that is the way it grows and changes. Different insects spend the winter in different forms of their lives. Some insects also spend the winter without moving. Some insects spend the winter as pupae(蛹). Other insects die after laying eggs in autumn. The eggs change into new insects in spring and everything begins all over again.

A. breathing through their skin B. eating a lot of foodC. sleeping for the whole winter D. growing white thicker fur
( )33. The main purpose of the examples in the last paragraph is to tell us ________.
A. most insects die when winter comesB. different insects grow and change in their own ways
C. most insects spend the winter without moving D. different insects grow and change in the same ways

A wetland park named Nanhaizi in south Beijing opened to the public for free, Beijing Times reported.
The park covers an area of 11. 65 square kilometres. Around 200,000 new trees in it turn the park into a natural oxygen bar(氧气吧). Visitors also have a chance to visit a special kind of animal—Pere David's Dear(麋鹿).

The game of Go is one of the four most popular games in Chinese culture. It is not only a competitive event of the mind, but also a board game of entertainment.
Go was created in China more than 4,000 years ago. Now many people around the world has shown great interest in it, too. Moreover, Go still serves as a way of cultural exchange among the people in many Eastern and Western countries today.
A game of Go has many meanings for real life. It represents a square world of round pieces in black and white. There are 181 black pieces and 180 white ones in total. While the board is fixed, the pieces can be placed in millions of different ways, just as life in the real world may take many turns. The proper placement of each tiny Go piece is the same as how one might solve a difficult problem in life.
Go carries deeper cultural and competitive meanings. Different from chess and Chinese chess, in the game of Go, the players do not wipe out (消灭) each other’s pieces. Instead, they simply try to win a larger share of space while allowing the other side some space. The one who forces the other side into a dead corner wins the game.
A modern Go talent in China once believed that the final purpose of the game was to achieve peace. Instead of fighting as enemies, the two players work together and play an excellent game.
