Every summer, the Serengeti plains (平原) of Africa are worth
visiting. Millions of wild animals begin their 1,800-mile journey northwards on
their migratory (迁移的) route every year.
In the month of November, polar bears in
their thousands cross the Canadian Arctic, as they head towards the ice sheets of
Hudson Bay. The sea ice that forms every winter is the key to the bear's managing
to be alive, for here they hunt for seals (海豹).
The Great Bustard, one of the heaviest flying
birds, migrates each year across Europe and Asia to its wintering grounds. Unluckily,
these and other migratory animals are in danger from human activity.
We have written several articles on climate
change and the influence of rising ocean temperatures. Since 1979, ice sheets in
the Arctic have gone down by 30 percent. What does this mean for polar bears They
are forced to stay on land for longer periods of time, which delays their search
for food. As a result, bears today are 60 pounds lighter than what they were. Besides,
smaller bears also produce weaker babies, and their chances of survival are at risk.
In the plains of Africa, migratory animals like gazelles are traveling long distances
for food, just to avoid falling prey (牺牲品) to humans who hunt them.
In an unusual step, experts from 120 countries
have agreed to protect 31 migratory mammals, fish and birds. The United Nation's
11th annual Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS) was held in
Quito, Ecuador. For the first time, 900 experts attended the conference, and the
enthusiastic support shows the world is united in conservation (保护) efforts.
What does getting on a protected list mean
Countries that have signed the agreement will be required to pass laws locally and
work with other countries that fall within the animal's migratory path. Only one
animal did not make the list. The African lion was rejected (拒绝) for lack of information
of the countries where it lives.
（1）What can we learn from the passage
A．The Great Bustard is one of the largest flying birds.
B．The weight of polar bears today is lighter than what it was.
C．In the 1970s, ice sheets went down by 30 percent.

（2）Why was the African lion not included in the list from the passage
A．We don't know which countries it lives in.
B．It isn't a migratory animal.
C．Experts were not interested in this animal.
D．It was not traveling long distances for food.
（3）The writer writes this passage aiming to __________.
A．let us know about the animals
B．prevent the endangered animals from dying out

请阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成下面表格中的有关信息。
Going on holidays is the best choice for the Europeans to relax themselves, especially in the UK. However, much has changed during the past decades(几十年).
One of the most traditional British holidays was the "seaside holiday". Families got on a train or into a car and travelled to seaside towns nearby to sun bathe on the beach, buy ice-creams and eat fish and chips and so on.
In the late 1970s, more British people started travelling to other countries in Europe for their summer holidays (July- August) because the weather wasn't very good, even in summer. The "package holiday" was particularly popular with most families.
In the 1980s and 1990s, young people in the UK became wealthier, so many of them travelled to countries all over the world for their holidays.
These years, especially, after the world financial crisis (金融危机), most British people cannot afford to spend their holidays abroad. They again begin to choose to stay in their own homes and go on a few day trips rather than spending money on hotels. They call this sort of vacation a "staycation".
Time Kind of holiday Reason
Before the late 1970s 　10． 　 It was a tradition.
In the late 1970s Package holiday 　11． 　
　12． 　 Overseas holiday Young people became wealthier.
These years 　13． 　 The world financial crisis.

The San, who is also called ‘bush people', is the last people living in the Kalahari. They eat wild animals, plants, berries, nuts and insects. Their lifestyle is very simple, ▲ . They use bows and arrows for hunting. They get their water from plants because they live in the southern Africa's hottest places and there is often no water.
They even get medicine from plants when they are ill.
The San people live in small groups of 25-50. There are no schools for children. They learn from the older people in the group. There are lots of things they have to learn so that they can live in a dangerous place like the Kalahari. In the evenings, the groups of people often sit around a fire and tell stories. Many of the stories are about animals and how to hunt them.
The Kalahari is a big area of bushland in southern Africa. It has two parts. There is less rain in south parts. It is drier and it's a lot more difficult for people to live. But when it rains at the end of the summer, the land becomes greener and more beautiful. For a few weeks, there are millions of little flowers and even butterflies! But soon, the grass and the bushes get dry and turn brown. Then life becomes more difficult again for people and animals.
Every year, thousands of tourists from all over the world visit the Kalahari. They love driving around the bushland to watch the wild animals. Their guides are often San bushmen and the tourists love listening to their stories about the wonders of the Kalahari. The tourists stay in small huts called ‘lodges'. They have comfortable beds and showers, but there is no electricity. When they go out of their hut, they have to be very careful. Sometimes there are lions or leopards around!

No Car Day was first started by 34 cities in France on September 22, 1998. It was started to protect the environment. By now, more than 1,000 cities around the world have had a No Car Day.
The first No Car Day in China was in Chengdu in 2001. Other cities including Taipei, Shanghai and Wuhan, also support the day.
In Beijing, more and more people are taking part in the activity. It asks drivers to leave their cars at home for one day each month and walk or ride a bike to work. It also calls on Beijingers not to use cars on June 5th (World Environment Day). The slogan for the day is, "If we drive for one less day, we can have one more nice day."
So far, more than 200,000 drivers have shown their support. "We can't control the weather, but we can choose not to drive," said Wu Zhonghua, a car club chairman. Beijing is trying to have 238 blue sky days this year. In the first quarter of 2007, Beijing only had 52 blue sky days. This was 11 days less than the number for the same period last year.

19．阅读理解
Nowadays, many
children spend hours a day looking at computer screens or other digital(数码的) products. Some eye care doctors say all the screen time has caused more
children to have what they call Computer Vision Syndrome(电脑视力综合征).
Nathan Warford is
an optometrist(验光师) in the
US. He says he
has seen more children having eye problems. “More children come into my office because their parents have
noticed that they have headaches or red eyes, or because their degree of
short-sightedness appears to be increasing very fast and they're worried, ” he said.
Dr Warford says
part of the problem is that even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or
they start to get a headache, some children don't tell their parents, because
they don't want their games or the computers to be taken away. Another part of the problem is that people blink(眨眼睛) less often when they look at the screen. A person who uses a computer or a digital product blinks
about a third as much as we normally(正常地) do in everyday life. If eyes can't stay wet or are too tired, they will not be
protected like normal.
（1）Which of the following may be caused by too much screen time
A．Having wet eyes. B．Having headaches.
C．Having small eyes. D．Having a toothache.
（2）Why don't some children tell their parents when their eyes start to feel uncomfortable
A．Because they think it is not serious.
B．Because they want to continue playing computer games.
C．Because they don't want their parents to worry.
D．Because their parents don't care about them.
（3）People blink about as they normally do when they use computers.
A．a third as much B．two thirds as much
C．half as much D．as much
（4）From the passage, we can learn that .
A．children should blink as much as possible
B．tears can't protect eyes
C．blinking is good for eyes
D．it's useless to blink
（5）What is the passage mainly about
A．Some information about the latest digital products.
B．Dr Warford's experience of working out eye problems.
C．Eye problems of children caused by using digital products.
D．Why it's bad to use computers.

Millions of Chinese have been playing a
mobile game called Travel Frog recently. You play as the "mother" of
a frog who lives alone and enjoys travelling. You need to prepare food and
tools for his trips. The frog will send you postcards while he is away.
The game's popularity may have something to
do with how lonely people are these days, according to the Xinhua News Agency.
Many players have said that the lonely frog is just like them. But playing with
the frog helps them forget their loneliness(孤独) for a
short time.
Loneliness seems to be a common problem
today. According to the Guardian(英国卫报), about
40 percent of American adults say they're lonely. And in the UK, about one in
five people in the country are "always or often lonely", the
Telegraph(英国电讯报) reported.
This might be why the UK government
declared(宣布) the country's very first
"Minister of Loneliness" in January. The minister's job is to find
ways to help UK citizens feel less lonely. The minister's office will provide
more money for activities that connect people together.
This loneliness problem may be partly due
to social media. When we see pictures of friends having fun or posting selfies(自拍) without us, we may compare their "perfect" lives with
our own and feel upset and lonely.
But we should remember that no one is
destined(注定) to be lonely. As UK poet John Donne
once wrote, "No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece
of the continent(陆地), a part of the main."
（1）What do players do while playing Travel Frog
A．Build houses for their frogs.
B．Write postcards to their frogs.
C．Choose places for their frogs to travel.
D．Prepare food and tools for their frogs' trips.
（2）The purpose of introducing Travel Frog is to .
A．tell us how to play this game B．lead in more popular games
C．tell us how popular this game is D．lead in the problem of loneliness
（3）To deal with loneliness, Minister of Loneliness .
A．designed the game Travel Frog B．found ways to get people together
C．reported the problem in the newspaper D．stopped people from using social media
（4）What does the last paragraph mean
A．In fact, we are not lonely. B．Loneliness is a big problem.
C．Everyone should live the way he likes. D．It is no use to compare ourselves with others.
