What do the following animals have in common Pandas, rhinoceros, Mexican burrowing snakes, pink pigeons and small tooth sawfish.
They are all endangered animals! Animals become endangered for a variety of reasons. Sadly, humans are behind every one of them!
For centuries, humans have hunted elephants for their tusks, and killed tigers for their beautiful fur, caught fish for food. While we still have elephants, tigers, and fish in the wild, we cannot say the same about many others that have simply died out!
Year 1505 was a dreadful turning point in the natural history of the island of Mauritius — European sailors discovered this beautiful island in the Indian Ocean and brought dogs, pigs, monkeys with them. The arrival of humans and those introduced animal species were bad news for dodo birds. About 50 pounds and flightless, dodo birds did not have any natural enemies until then. They picked fruit fallen from trees and built their nests on the ground. Shortly after humans set foot on Mauritius, however, dodo birds realized that they were in big trouble — men killed them for their meat, and those introduced animal species destroyed their nests and ate their eggs. The effects of excessive hunting and foreign species drove dodo birds to first become much fewer and then die out. The last dodo bird was killed in 1681.
Humans and animals have always competed for land and other natural resources. We clear an area of a forest for farming. We cut down trees and use wood to build beautiful houses. We build reservoirs to make sure that we have enough water to use. At the same time that we are trying to make our life comfortable, we destroy the habitats of wild animals.
More than once we have seen on television that rescue workers are trying their best to save seabirds in spilled oil. More than once we have heard about how emissions of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳的排放) and other gases have raised the earth's temperature and caused global warming. Pollution has a serious and long lasting effect. If we choose to do nothing and continue to pollute our planet Earth, our next generations will have to face an Earth without birds singing and beasts roaring.
5. Which of the following are NOT endangered animals
A. Pandas. B. Rhinoceros. C. Pink pigeons. D. Dodo birds.

B. when foreign species entered the island of Mauritius

China has more than 30 intangible cultural heritage recognized by the UNESCO, including paper-cutting, the Dragon Boat Festival, Peking Opera, acupuncture (针灸) and so on. The organization adopted a decision that China’s “The Twenty-Four Solar Terms” (二十四节气) should be put on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2016 in Ethiopia.
The Twenty-Four Solar Terms, knowledge of time and practices in agriculture, starts from the Beginning of Spring and ends with the Greater Cold, moving in cycles. It developed through the observation of the sun’s annual movement in China. In ancient time, the method of tugui, earth sundial (日暑), was used to measure the shadow of the sun for determining the solar terms.
The Twenty-Four Solar Terms came into being and developed in close relationship with Chinese agricultural production. At the initial stage of agricultural development, people began to explore the seasonal rules in the agricultural production to meet the needs in seeding, harvesting and other activities. Gradually, they formed the concept of “seed in spring, grow in summer, harvest in autumn and store in winter”. During the spring and autumn periods, the agricultural production was highly influenced by the seasonal changes, thus forming the concept of Solar Terms.
As a traditional Chinese knowledge system of time with a history of thousands of years, the Twenty-Four Solar Terms clearly expresses the concepts of respect for nature, and harmony between man and nature. Created by Chinese ancestors, it have functioned as a complete set of weather calendar (日历) to guide the agricultural production in China. It has also been introduced into North Korea, Japan and other neighboring countries and still used in Japan. The Chinese heritage has provably influenced the people’s way of thinking and behaving and will continue to be an important carrier of Chinese cultural identity.
9. According to the first two paragraphs, the Twenty-Four Solar Terms_________.
A. was used to measure the shadow of the sun
B. has not been listed as one intangible cultural heritage of humanity
C. is the best intangible cultural heritage recognized by the UNESCO
D. repeats from the Beginning of Spring to the Greater Cold every year
10. We can learn from the text that _______in China in the past.
A. the Twenty-Four Solar Terms only influenced spring and autumn
B. agricultural production highly influenced the seasonal changes
C. people cared about the changes of weather just for fun
D. the Twenty-Four Solar Terms had something to do with agriculture
11. We can infer from the text that the Twenty-Four Solar Terms_________.
A. is part of traditional Chinese culture
B. is strongly influenced by North Korea and Japan
C. is hard to explain
D. is an agricultural calendar merely used in China
D
If you’ve ever travelled with other people, the chances are you’ve had to make compromises.When you want to get up early to watch the sunrise, for example, your friends may argue that getting enough sleep is more important.And when you want to try the different food, your friends might say it looks strange and push you to a Chinese restaurant instead.
This is probably why more people these days are choosing to travel alone.According to reports on holiday habits from the Association of British Travel Agents, the percentage of people in the UK who take trips alone has been increasing, from 6 percent in 2011, to 12 percent in 2017, and to 15 percent in 2018.Most of these people said they choose to travel alone because this allows them to “do what they want”.
In fact travelling alone is only a part of a recent trend(趋势) of people wanting to take more time alone — or what’s called “me time”.“Imagine yourself as a full pot of water and everything else that asks for your attention is an empty glass.When you provide what is needed for them you are using up your own water supply,” editor Nicole Lyons wrote for the mental health social network Psych Central.“But how are you refilling your pot This is where your ‘me time’ comes in.”
However, it’s still quite a common belief that those who do things alone are losers and they’re alone simply because they don’t have anybody to be with.But why can’t people just be enough for themselves
The now Duchess of Sussex “Rachel Meghan Markle” once wrote on her blog in 2016 about how she enjoyed taking herself out to dinner and travelling alone.“It’s not easy.But it’s important, ”she wrote.You should face everything and encourage yourself to move forward when the feeling of loneliness and boredom sweeps through your body and mind, according to Markle.
12. What does the underlined phrase “make compromises” mean
A Turn up. B. Work hard. C. Give in. D. Take care.
13. Why do some people choose to travel alone
A. To save more money. B. To enjoy their freedom.
C To calm themselves down. D. To avoid troubling someone.
14. Why are Markle’s words mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To show the way of challenging yourself.
B. To tell the importance of travelling alone.
C. To prove the necessity of the sense of loneliness.
D. To introduce the advantage of travelling.
15. What is the best title of the text
A Me time:enjoy yourself alone B. A new way of travelling abroad
C. Travelling alone: a better way to relax D. A standard of finding a partner in trips

What do the following animals have in common Pandas, rhinoceros, Mexican burrowing snakes, pink pigeons and small tooth sawfish.
They are all endangered animals! Animals become endangered for a variety of reasons. Sadly, humans are behind every one of them!
For centuries, humans have hunted elephants for their tusks, and killed tigers for their beautiful fur, caught fish for food. While we still have elephants, tigers, and fish in the wild, we cannot say the same about many others that have simply died out!

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了动物因各种原因而濒临灭绝，每一种的背后都有人类的因素。文章以渡渡鸟的灭绝为例讲述了人类是如何导致其它物种灭绝的。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Pandas, rhinoceros, Mexican burrowing snakes, pink pigeons and small tooth sawfish.(熊猫，犀牛，墨西哥穴居蛇，粉红鸽子和小锯齿锯鱼)”以及第二段“They are all endangered animals!(它们都是濒危动物！)”可知，渡渡鸟不是濒危物种。故选D。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“The arrival of humans and those introduced animal species were bad news for dodo birds.(人类的到来和那些引入的动物物种对渡渡鸟来说是坏消息)”以及“Shortly after humans set foot on Mauritius, however, dodo birds realized that they were in big trouble — men killed them for their meat, and those introduced animal species destroyed their nests and ate their eggs. The effects of excessive hunting and foreign species drove dodo birds to first become much fewer and then die out. The last dodo bird was killed in 1681.(然而，在人类踏上毛里求斯后不久，渡渡鸟意识到它们遇到了大麻烦——人类为了获取渡渡鸟的肉而杀死了它们，那些引入的动物物种破坏了它们的巢穴，吃了它们的蛋。过度捕猎和外来物种的影响导致渡渡鸟数量急剧减少，然后灭绝。最后一只渡渡鸟在1681年被杀死)”可知，1505年是毛里求斯岛自然历史上一个可怕的转折点，因为欧洲水手在印度洋发现了这个美丽的岛屿，并带来了狗、猪和猴子，最终人类的到来和那些引入的动物物种导致渡渡鸟灭绝了。由此可知，划线词意思是“可怕的”。故选C。

【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“For centuries, humans have hunted elephants for their tusks, and killed tigers for their beautiful fur, caught fish for food. While we still have elephants, tigers, and fish in the wild, we cannot say the same about many others that have simply died out!(几个世纪以来，人类为了象牙而猎杀大象，为了它们美丽的皮毛而猎杀老虎，为了食物而捕鱼。虽然我们在野外仍然有大象、老虎和鱼类，但我们不能对许多其他已经灭绝的动物说同样的话！)”结合文章以渡渡鸟的灭绝为例讲述了人类是如何导致其它物种灭绝的。由此可知，A选项“什么使动物处于危险之中”最符合文章标题。故选A。

If you’ve ever travelled with other people, the chances are you’ve had to make compromises.When you want to get up early to watch the sunrise, for example, your friends may argue that getting enough sleep is more important.And when you want to try the different food, your friends might say it looks strange and push you to a Chinese restaurant instead.
This is probably why more people these days are choosing to travel alone.According to reports on holiday habits from the Association of British Travel Agents, the percentage of people in the UK who take trips alone has been increasing, from 6 percent in 2011, to 12 percent in 2017, and to 15 percent in 2018.Most of these people said they choose to travel alone because this allows them to “do what they want”.
In fact, travelling alone is only a part of a recent trend(趋势) of people wanting to take more time alone — or what’s called “me time”.“Imagine yourself as a full pot of water and everything else that asks for your attention is an empty glass.When you provide what is needed for them you are using up your own water supply,” editor Nicole Lyons wrote for the mental health social network Psych Central.“But how are you refilling your pot This is where your ‘me time’ comes in.”
However, it’s still quite a common belief that those who do things alone are losers and they’re alone simply because they don’t have anybody to be with.But why can’t people just be enough for themselves
The now Duchess of Sussex “Rachel Meghan Markle” once wrote on her blog in 2016 about how she enjoyed taking herself out to dinner and travelling alone.“It’s not easy.But it’s important ”she wrote.You should face everything and encourage yourself to move forward when the feeling of loneliness and boredom sweeps through your body and mind, according to Markle.
12. What does the underlined phrase “make compromises” mean
A. Turn up. B. Work hard. C. Give in. D. Take care.
13. Why do some people choose to travel alone
A. To save more money. B. To enjoy their freedom.
C. To calm themselves down. D. To avoid troubling someone.
14. Why are Markle’s words mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To show the way of challenging yourself.
B. To tell the importance of travelling alone.
C. To prove the necessity of the sense of loneliness.
D. To introduce the advantage of travelling.
15. What is the best title of the text
A. Me time:enjoy yourself alone B. A new way of travelling abroad
C. Travelling alone: a better way to relax D. A standard of finding a partner in trips
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一种新兴趋势“me time”，即人们想要更多的独处时间，去做自己想要的事情。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“When you want to get up early to watch the sunrise, for example, your friends may argue that getting enough sleep is more important.And when you want to try the different food, your friends might say it looks strange and push you to a Chinese restaurant instead.”（例如，当你想早起看日出时，你的朋友们可能会认为充足的睡眠更重要。当你想尝试不同的食物时，你的朋友可能会说它看起来很奇怪，然后把你推到一家中国餐馆。）可知，和他人一起旅行，你可能不得不妥协，推测划线短语make compromises表示“做出妥协”，与give in同义。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Most of these people said they choose to travel alone because this allows them to “do what they want”.”（这些人中大多数人说，他们选择独自旅行是因为这样可以“做他们想做的事”。）可知，大多数人选择独自旅行，是因为他们想做自己想做的事情，享受自由。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“You should face everything and encourage yourself to move forward when the feeling of loneliness and boredom sweeps through your body and mind, according to Markle.”（马克尔说，当孤独和无聊的感觉席卷你的身心时，你应该面对一切，鼓励自己前进。）可知，当感到孤独和无聊时，你应该面对一切，所以引用马克尔所说的话是为了说明独自旅行的重要性。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，文章主要介绍了一种新兴的趋势“me time”，即为了避免和别人一起旅行时产生不便和麻烦，很多人选择独自旅行，去做自己想做的事情，所以“自我时间：独自玩得开心”可以作为文章标题。故选A项。
