Last weekend, my husband and I drove a dog to her new home. Typically, when we have a new dog in the backseat, it's a young dog. But this passenger was a much different story.Magdalen is a 13-year-old dog. Her owner gave her up temporarily when he was sick, but when he fully recovered several months later, he said he didn't want her back. He had her since she was young but now had no place for her.
The family who had given her a temporary home had children and other dogs and was unable to give her a forever home. When Speak St. Louis, the rescue team I work with, was contacted about the dog, they offered to take her in. She went to a vet(兽医)for a basic health check. But the vet didn't have great news, Her mouth was swollen(肿胀的)with all sorts of problems. Two teeth fell out during cleaning and eleven more had to be pulled out.
Luckily, a good friend of mine, a dog trainer with a soft heart for seniors, had agreed to adopt Magdalen. On the trip to the trainer's home, the sweet senior looked so relaxed in our backseat. I felt a great sense of relief and pleasure.
Her owner needed some temporary help when he was sick. But I can't imagine why he wouldn't have wanted her back. I think of my own dog and dogs we lost to old age in the past. We're family and we stay that way forever. She'd be able to live a good life, I hoped, in her new home!
24.What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A.The former owners of the dog.B. Where the dog was treated.
C.What the dog needed most.D. The problems the dog met.

C. Surprised and curious. D. Hopeful and proud.
27.What does the author think of Magdalen's owner giving her up

Written and illustrated by Shel Silverstein, The Giving Tree is a children's book that tells the story about a young boy and a tree in the forest. The story starts with the boy and the tree being the best of friends and having fun. As the boy grows older, he asks more from the tree, which willingly agrees until all that is left is a stump(树桩). In the end, the boy,now an old man, comes back to the tree and tells it that all he wants is a place to sit on,something that the tree eagerly provides.
In the book, each part of the story goes straight to the point without confusing readers.The book doesn't include the events that happen to the boy in between. We see how the boy's needs increase to a point that the tree finally gives its trunk as he grows. It makes the book easy to read and understand. The writing style may seem plain and boring at first but we need to keep in mind that it is a children's book. If it weren't that way, then it would be unattractive to its young readers.
The words used are very easy to understand. The phrase,"and the tree was happy", is quite moved and shows the tree's love for the boy. The use of the word “need"also shows readers the attitude of the boy. The change from"need"to "want"in the end also tells readers the changes that the boy goes through.
Though the book has been criticized as it can be understood in different ways, it is because of this that the book succeeds. Again the book is written for children. Different children have their own ways to understand the book and will consider it interesting.
28. What is the book mainly about
A. A boy's great love for a tree.
B. A boy's relationship with a tree.
C. A boy's dependence on a forest.
D. A boy's interesting life in a forest.
29. Why is the book suitable for young readers in the author's opinion
A.Its story is touching. B.Its expressions are simple.
C.Its writing style is humorous. D. Its topics are varied.
30.What makes The Giving Tree popular
A.The comments kids gave. B.The writing style.
C. The pictures in it. D.Different ways to understand it.
31.What is the author's purpose in writing the text
A. To comment on a book. B. To introduce a-writer.
C. To recommend a story. D.To give readers a lesson.
D
The surface of Mars is etched(蚀刻)with ancient river valleys and lake basins. Some researchers think that liquid water once flowed on the Red Planet. Today, Mars is too cold for much, if any, liquid water to exist. And 3.8 billion years ago, when the flowing water formed, the sun was fainter than it is today, making it even harder to imagine a warm Martian climate. That's why many researchers think Mars may have gone in and out of deep freezes.
Some researchers have suggested that early Mars only thawed out(解冻)when largeasteroid(小行星)impacts or volcanic eruptions temporarily warmed the planet. But Kasting,a geologist at Penn State University, thinks warm windows from such dramatic events would have been too brief to carve the vast canyons(峡谷) that exist on Mars. Now, Kasting and his colleagues have come up with an alternative explanation: They think Mars may have experienced a series of climate cycles caused by changes in the strength of the greenhouse effect.
The idea goes like this: When Mars was cold and frozen, volcanoes continued to belch out the greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and hydrogen into the atmosphere. There, the gas blanket trapped heat and warmed the planet up until liquid water began to flow, forming Mars' rivers and lakes. However, warm temperatures and abundant water would also have sped up certain chemical reactions that consumed carbon dioxide, mitigating the greenhouse effect and cooling the planet .back down again. Then the cycle would repeat.
Kasting shared his theory with other .astronomers at the December meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco, and in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters. So far, Kasting's team has only shown that such an explanation is possible,according to climate models: But the researchers say field trips could help Test the idea by looking for evidence of multiple warm events, and their durations.
32.What made researchers believe that liquid water once existed on Mars
A. The geological features of Mars. B. The natural climate of Mars.
C The temperatures of the sun. D. The colour of the planet.
33.What is Kasting's theory based on
A.Large asteroids had no impact on Mars.
B. Volcanic eruptions were very frequent on Mars.
C.Deep valleys couldn't be formed in a short period of time.
D.Carbon dioxide and hydrogen were abundant in the atmosphere.
34.What does the underlined word"mitigating"in paragraph 3 mean
A.Achieving. B.Reducing C.Experiencing. D. Enhancing
35.Which is the most suitable title for the text
A.Large Asteroid Impacts on the Red Planet
B.Liquid Water Existing on Mars
C.Climate Cycles Could Have Carved Canyons on Mars
D. Ancient River Valleys Have Been Found on Mars
