During this holiday, my family took a trip to Tanzania. Getting there was really an adventure! We took fifteen different planes. The ride was difficult, but the scenery was amazing. When we arrived, the time difference was difficult to deal with, but after a few nights I got used to it. We stayed in a safari resort(游猎度假村).There were all kinds of noises. But they weren’t ones I was used to hearing; the noises came from animals and insects.
On our first day, we saw a herd of giraffes and two rhinos(犀牛).Our guide Mishi told us that the two black rhinos had been caught and brought here because they were in danger of dying out due to poachers(偷猎者),who wanted them for their horns(角).The two rhinos are not in a zoo but in guarded pens(牲畜栏) of about 100 acres.
The next day, Mishi took us to a river. In it, there are big crocodiles(鳄鱼) and even bigger hippos. After we took pictures, Mishi brought us to a suspension(悬挂) bridge. My family was very nervous about crossing it after seeing what was in the river and there was a sign saying “No more than one person on the bridge each time”. Mishi finally promised us that it was not dangerous, and she was right! We all made it to the other side in one piece.
After we explored a little in the area, we found a long line of ants. I noticed that a few were bigger than the others and these bigger ants were walking next to the line, as if keeping the others in order. Mishi told us that they were called Army Ants and were used by old Tanzanian tribes(部落) for medical treatment. They could live with nature harmoniously.
After many days of fun and great adventure, our trip was over. I am looking forward to going back someday.

Back in 1973, out of concern that many of American native plants and animals were in danger of extinction, Congress passed the Endangered Species Act. The law allows the government to decide species as either “endangered” or “threatened”. Once plants and animals are on the list, they can’t be harmed or harvested, and their living places can’t be changed or damaged in a way that kills, injures or weakens their ability to breed (繁殖), feed or perform other functions necessary for existence.
While environmentalists have thought the law is of great importance in history, mining and the agribusiness (农业综合企业) interests don’t think so. They argue that when an endangered animal is found on public land, the use of the land is strictly controlled, which can prevent farming, and other business use of the land. So, the recent US government has sought to change the way that the law is applied to reduce what it considers overprotection for threatened species.
But a study published in the journal PLOS ONE in January revealed that researchers looked at 31 different populations of ocean animals, and that they found that 78 percent of the mammals (哺乳动物) and 75 percent of the turtles increased their population size after receiving protection under the Act. What was even more impressive was that the number of Hawaiian humpback whales increased from just 800 in 1979 to more than 10,000 in 2005.
“We should celebrate the Act’s track record of reducing the harm from water pollution, overfishing, beach habitat loss and killing. Humans often destroy ocean ecosystems(生态系统), but our study shows that with strong laws and careful administration, we can also help them make a comeback, ” said Shaye Wolf, a researcher of the Center for Biological Diversity in Tucson, Arizona.
8．What can we know about the Endangered Species Act in Paragraph 1
A. It mainly focuses on protecting ocean species.
B. It covers almost all the details of wildlife protection.
C. It encourages people to raise wildlife in a careful way.
D. It asks the whole world to work together to protect wildlife.
9．Why does the recent US government try to change the way of carrying out the Act
A. The Act has limited the economic benefits of land.
B. Some land has got polluted due to the Act.
C. Some states refuse to follow the Act.
D. The Act fails to save enough endangered species.
10．What does Paragraph 3 mainly intend to show us
A. Quite a lot of ocean animals’ population is still worrying.
B. The government failed to put some rare species on the list.
C. The Act turned out to be effective for ocean animal protection.
D. Whales benefit most from the Act after receiving protection.
11．What do Shaye Wolf’s words in the last paragraph imply
A. More strict rules should be added to the Act.
B. Overfishing is the main threat to ocean animals.
C. The damage caused by human activities to the ecosystem is unavoidable.
D. Proper laws play a powerful role in environmental protection.
If you face two similar valued options for where to attend college, you have weighed the pros and cons, but you still have difficulty deciding. You decide to give it more time, and think about it a bit more.
The findings of a fascinating paper titled Irrational Time Allocation in Decision-Making suggests you might be making a mistake. Participants in the research viewed images that contained pairs of different foods and they had to choose which item they preferred to eat.
The researchers found that participants spent more time choosing between options that were roughly equal in value than between options in which there was a large value disparity. In other words, people took longer than they should have when deciding between two equally appealing choices. When shown an unpleasant food alongside a favored food, participants chose quickly. When shown a favored food alongside another favored food, people took a while.
Relatedly, there is research suggesting that people take longer to distinguish between two numbers when there is a small difference than when there is a large one. For example, people take longer to determine which number is larger between 47 vs 49 than for 12 vs 35. Perhaps this tendency explains why people take so long to choose between two options with roughly equal payoffs. In the same way that we have difficulty distinguishing numbers that are nearly equal in value, we also have difficulty choosing between options that are roughly equally pleasant.
However, there are doubts among people. Some think this seems not reasonable. If two choices are equally appealing, then the decision shouldn’t take so long. Some wonder whether this works in the opposite direction—whether duration of decision-making implies that options are equal. When options are roughly equal, people tend to take a long time to decide. Does this suggest that if people take a long time to decide, then options are roughly equal Maybe in some instances, the longer we take to make a decision, the less it matters what we actually choose.
12．What’s people’s common practice in decision making
A.They often rush a decision without much thinking.
B.They seldom balance advantages and disadvantages.
C.They only concentrate on their personal preferences.
D.They tend to spend too much time on their options.
13．What does the underlined word “disparity” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A.Difference. B.Preference. C.Growth. D.Potential.
14．What does the research convey in paragraph 4
A.It is difficult for people to value their options.
B.The value of numbers is difficult to distinguish.
C.People hesitate when facing two similar choices.
D.People prefer to take those high-valued options.
15．What is the best title for the text
A.Never too late to make a decision B.Be patient with appealing choices
C.How to handle various choices D.The more time, the better decision
二、七选五
16．According to research, about 21.5 million American children between the ages of six and seventeen are involved (参与的) in a team sport. ① But regardless of the reasons for getting involved, children can gain a lot from sports.

Although most effects of sports on children are good, there can be disadvantages. If the pressure to win is overemphasized (过分强调) or the expectations of parents or coaches become too great, kids may experience lots of stress.⑤ To avoid these bad effects, children should not overemphasize winning but focus on developing certain skills.
A. Organized sports require children to work together to achieve a common goal.
B. They may take part in sports for fun or to develop some skills.
C. It can cause worries, headaches, stomach aches, and muscle pain.

47．答案：to be told
解析：考查不定式的被动。句意:公司的经理走进会议室，要求被告诉事实。此处为“要求做某事”，表达为demand to do，应用不定式作宾语，且此处the manager与tell之间为被动关系，故此处应用不定式to do的被动形式，故填to be told。
48．答案：where
解析：考查定语从句。句意:这就是汤姆将和父母一起度假的城市。定语从句修饰先行词city，关系词替代先行词在从句作地点状语，应用where引导。故填where.
49．答案：why
解析：分析句子可知，the reason是先行词，后面的内容是用来解释说明the reason的，所以应该是一个定语从句，因为后面的内容是用来解释说明她对这部电影感兴趣的原因的，所以应该是一个why引导的定语从句，why在从句中作原因状语，故答案为why。
50．答案：that
解析：本题考查强调句型。强调句型的构成是It is/was+被强调部分+that+其它，所以答案为that。
51．答案：leading
解析：本题考查with的复合结构，即with+宾语+宾语补足语，宾语是a local guide，它与动词lead(带领)之间是主动关系，因此用现在分词leading，故答案为leading.
52．答案：to finish
解析：句型It is beyond one's ability to do sth.:做某事超出了某人的能力，it是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式，所以此处要填动词finish的不定式to finish。故答案为to finish。
