文档简介
Passage 1
With China's large trade volume, the increased use of the Chinese currency renminbi (RMB) in international trade will help stabilize the international trading system, a leading business insider has said.
The RMB, or the yuan, is getting increasingly popular and acceptable as more and more countries are willing to sign currency exchange deals with China, and more countries are starting to use the currency to settle cross border trade, said Wu Kegang, director of BCC LinkTo China, a partnership project between the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) and the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade.
“I think in the future, a large number of Chinese companies who are dealing with international trade probably will start using RMB as the currency of settlements，” Wu told Xinhua in a recent interview. “When that happens, then the Chinese currency would truly become the international currency of choice.”
Noting that China has been the largest trader of the world for several years, Wu told Xinhua that the speeding up of the currency's internationalization is very timely and “doesn't surprise me at all.”
He said the volume of China's trade is seen as an important stabilizing factor of global trading system now, and the currency getting more involved in international trade will be able to help stabilize the international trading system and also boost confidence for the Chinese economy.
During the interview, he also refuted some negative reports about China from many international observers, “particularly they use the Western economic theory to monitor and observe Chinese economy.”
Wu, who just came back from a two month trip in China, said the situation on the ground is a lot more stable. “The manufacturing, the economy is a lot more stable than the media have reported over the last three years，” he noted.
“The internationalization of the currency will also provide evidence for the outside world to see how strong and resilient (有弹性的) the economy is，” he said.

Passage 2
“How beautiful the jasmine (茉莉花) is! A sweet smell covers the budding twigs. So fragrant, so white, admired by all lips.” The famed Chinese folk song JasmineFlower has reached a global audience with its beautiful melody and lyrics. Equally popular is the traditionally made Jasmine tea, whose elegant fragrance and mellow taste fascinate countless tea drinkers.
Chen Chengzhong has a big say in the production of Jasmine tea as he is a practitioner of Fuzhou Jasmine tea scenting techniques. The 72 year old tea maker started his career early in his teenage years, when he became an apprentice in a state owned tea factory.
Jasmine tea is a kind of tea scented (带有某种香味) with the fragrance of jasmine blossoms and typically has green tea as its base. The natural scenting process consumes fresh jasmine blossoms, picked during the daytime when the buds are closed, Chen said. And the green tea leaves from the spring harvest are stored until the most fragrant jasmine blossoms in late summer.
The hot and humid climate and the red soil in East China's Fujian province provide favorable conditions for jasmine and tea plants to thrive, becoming the high quality ingredients that are needed for Jasmine tea. “Our jasmine flowers and tea leaves are all sourced from Fujian in large quantities, despite the fact that they are pricier than those from other origins，” Chen said.
When the fresh jasmine flowers are harvested, they are mixed with layers of tea leaves. Workers stir (搅拌) the tea leaves and flowers overnight, allowing the leaves to absorb the fragrant scent of the jasmine blossoms.
In the morning, the flowers are sorted, the leaves are dried, and the process is repeated. More repetition makes for a more robust jasmine flavor, and it takes at least nine scenting processes to produce Jasmine tea of a superb grade.
Having been appointed as the representative practitioner of Fuzhou Jasmine tea scenting techniques, Chen now focuses more on passing on the scenting techniques, giving lectures to students and apprentices. Chen's son Chen Zheng is motivated to follow in his father's footsteps and move forward with the scenting techniques. “Like my father, I also hope to practice this traditional skill that has profound cultural deposits, and pass it on，” Chen Zheng said.
5．What is the author's purpose of quoting the song JasmineFlower
A．To tell us not to neglect the song.
B．To show the popularity of the song.
C．To introduce the topic—Jasmine tea.
D．To clarify the origin of Jasmine tea.
6．Why are Fujian's jasmines and tea leaves the high quality ingredients

B．Because Fujian is rich in jasmines and tea leaves.
C．Because they are pricier than those from other areas.
D．Because Fujian has suitable climate and soil conditions.
7．Which of the following is RIGHT about the process of making Jasmine tea
A．It uses the most fragrant jasmine blossoming in early summer.
B．It takes at most nine scenting processes to produce Jasmine tea of a superb grade.

Passage 3
Massimo Bottura, a three Michelin Starred chef, has extended his culinary (烹饪的) empire globally. However, he says that the peak of all of his achievements is Milan's Refettorio Ambrosiano and the following 12 global branches.
At Refettorio Ambrosiano, dinner guests are greeted by name. They dine on fine china at tables created by the country's most sought after furniture designers. The waiters are polite, and the chefs have been trained under the finest restaurateurs in the world. The set menu changes every day, depending on what comes in with the morning's delivery.
This morning's delivery contains dry arugula (芝麻菜), chicken close to its sell by date and too ugly to be sold oranges. By dinner, however, the supermarket castoffs have been transformed into a three course meal. The 100 or so diners—refugees, the homeless, and the unemployed—enjoy the meal with obvious pleasure, laughing with the volunteer waiters, praising the volunteer chefs, and forgetting, at least for an hour, the challenges of a life lived on the streets.
The brightest gems in Bottura's culinary empire are not restaurants at all. He thinks of them as spaces that shine a light on the dignity of their guests while focusing attention on the food waste problem by turning foods that were otherwise going to be headed toward rubbish bins into Michelin Guide worthy meals.
Bottura first thought of Refettorio Ambrosiano as a pop up concept for the 2015 World Expo in Milan. The organizers had invited him to cook for the grand opening. Bottura proposed something different. He wanted to invite the world's best chefs to cook with him for the city's homeless, using leftovers. That idea soon got supported and turned into something more permanent.
Today, the Refettorio is “a movement，” Bottura says. “It is a model for fighting food waste and isolation on the front lines. And it starts by looking at an old carrot or a piece of hard bread and catching sight of gold.”
9．How do the Refettorio Ambrosianos differ from Bottura's other restaurants
A．The waiters are well trained.
B．The tables are custom made.
C．They are three Michelin starred.
D．Daily delivery decides the set menu.
10．Which of the following best describes the event at Refettorio Ambrosiano
A．An evening gathering for local chefs.
B．A charity sale of supermarket castoffs
C．A wealthy meal for the less fortunate.
D．A volunteer training for the homeless
11．What does Bottura think of the Refettorio
A．It's his best profitable restaurant.
B．It's a good project for food safety.
C．It's a pop up concept to extend his business.
D．It's win win for the environment and society.
12．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．Less Waste, More Taste.
B．A Dinner of Dignity
C．Best Restaurant, Best Service.
D．The Power of Food
Passage 4
In conversations with strangers, people commonly tend to think they should speak less than half the conversation time to be likable. But we've discovered this idea is wrong. Our data shows that people tend to think they should speak about 45% of the time to be likable in a one on one conversation with someone new. However, it appears speaking up a bit more is actually a better strategy.
In our research, we randomly assigned people to speak for 30%, 40%, 50%, 60% of the time in a conversation with someone new. We found that the more they spoke, the more they were liked by their new partners. This was only one study with 116 participants, but the outcome is supported by other researchers' findings. For example, a previous study randomly assigned one in a pair to take on the role of “speaker” and the other to take on the role of “listener.” After engaging in 12 minute interactions, listeners liked speakers more than speakers liked listeners because listeners felt more similar to speakers than speakers did to listeners. This outcome suggests the reason people prefer those who speak up: Learning more about a new partner can make you feel like you have more in common with him or her.
Further, we assigned people to speak for up to 70% and even 90% of the time. The result shows it is not an ideal strategy. Our research does not suggest people hold down a conversational partner but rather that they feel comfortable speaking up more than they usually might.
Research like ours can help people gain a ‘more reasonable understanding of social interactions with new people and become more confident about how to make a good first impression. It has the obvious benefit of allowing us to carefully control speaking time. However, it does not reflect more natural conversations. Future research should figure out whether our findings generalize to more natural interactions.
13．What is the common belief concerning conversations with strangers
A．Speaking a little less is preferred.
B．Speaking half the time is the best.
C．Listeners are more likable than speakers.
D．Listeners fail to control the conversations.
14．How was the research carried out
A．By analyzing speaking habits.
B．By making comparisons.
C．By listing examples.
D．By collecting data.
15．What is the disadvantage of the research
A．The conversation time is limited.
B．Further study is hard to continue.
C．The findings are less widely appliable.
D．Interactions with strangers are missing.
16 .In which situation can the research finding be applied
A．Attending a family gathering.
B．Partying with your friends.
C．Meeting a new teacher.
D．Making a public speech.
Passage 5
If you visited a big aquarium such as SeaWorld or the Miami Seaquarium a decade ago. Performances by tiger whales were probably a centerpiece of the visiting experience. However, animal advocates have pushed to end the harmful practice of keeping these enormous whales locked up in small pools and forcing them to perform for audiences. Now the good news is emerging from this continuing movement. Lolita, one tiger whale living in the Miami Seaquarium, may soon be released to the Salish Sea where her mother lives.
Lolita's possible homecoming is a longtime coming. The enormous animal was caught in 1970 in the Salish Sea, a body of water off the coast of Washington, which his home to tiger whales. Until now she has spent the past 52 years in captivity in Miami. Her tank is considered the smallest among those of captive whales in America. She has been forced to perform for crowds for decades. This has resulted in injuries. She has hit her head while performing “fast swims”， and her blood work has been abnormal.
Whales in captivity can suffer severe health issues. Lolita outlived her tank mate Hugo, who died of aneurism (动脉瘤) caused by hitting his head on the aquarium walls. “Lolita's lucky，” said Howard Garrett, a whale researcher and activist. “It's against all odds that she is still alive. I think it's her mental health that keeps her physical health in good shape. She is a complete miracle in her ability to stay healthy.”
According to the United States Department of Agriculture, Lolita may not be getting enough food and water. This only adds to the list of health concerns which can appear in captivity. Activists who have been pushing for decades may at last see Lolita return to the Salish Sea, where her mother, a 93 year old tiger whale known as “Ocean Sun”， leads a pod. Returning these magnificent creatures to their natural habitat is a humane solution advocated for by the likes of the International Marine Mammal Project.
17．Which of the following best describes Lolita
A．She got many injuries while performing for audiences over 50 years.
B．Her blood works well though she suffers severe health problems.
C．She was caught on the beach in Miami as a result of her injuries.
D．She was switched to a bigger tank because of her mate's attack.
18．Why is Lolita in good physical health according to Howard Garrett

B．Hugo influenced her positively.
C．She gets timely medical treatment.
D．Whale researchers offer necessary aids.
19．What can we know from the last paragraph
A．Activists have succeeded in accomplishing the project.
B．Lolita will definitely fit in with the pod led by her mother.
C．Joint efforts are being made to release creatures like Lolita.
D．There's little hope for Lolita to return to her natural habitat.
20．What is the best title of the passage
A．Lolita, the Last Tiger Whale in the World
B．Lolita, Released to the Salish Sea
C．Animals in Capacity Are Suffering a Lot
D．Lolita May Soon Go Free from Captivity
Passage 6
While the rest of us are sleeping, freshwater turtles (龟) from Central America to Asia are getting out of the water and basking (月光浴) at night. There have been reports of this behavior before, but now a new study is the first to document the widespread occurrence. The findings suggest this may be a common and almost entirely overlooked aspect of many species' ecology.
Dr. Donald McKnight, one of the researchers, said he and a colleague first observed freshwater turtles night basking at the Ross River in Townsville, Australia. “We think it's related to temperature. The water is staying so warm at night that it's actually warmer than the turtles like to be and they can cool down by coming out of the water，” says McKnight.
For the study, researchers put cameras to watch the night activity of as many freshwater turtle species as possible. The cameras were set up in 25 locations. They were programmed to take a photo every two minutes. They collected data on 29 species of freshwater turtles.
It would be lovely to think the turtles are just enjoying some leisure time when things are quiet. But the researchers note that in most cases, the turtles got out of water when the water was too warm and the air was cooler. Given the warming planet, that's admittedly a bit depressing. However, not all of the nighttime baskers were escaping too warm water. According to the study, turtles in India exhibited more basking on cooler nights, rather than warmer nights, and those in Africa spent more time basking at night in winter than in summer. The reasons for these differences are unclear. It may be that at some sites or seasons, turtles are escaping
unfavourably warm water temperatures, while at others, they are taking advantage of the warm air to increase their body temperature and escape unfavourably cold water.
Regardless of the “why” behind different species' reasons for midnight basking, it's a fascinating look at behaviors not previously documented by scientists. And it is at least encouraging to know that turtles are figuring out important behaviors tied to climate change.
21．Why do the freshwater turtles from Australia get out of water at night
A．To search for extra food.
B．To avoid natural enemies.
C．To cool themselves down.
D．To enjoy the quietness outside.
22．What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A．How the study was conducted.
B．What the study brought about.
C．Why the study was carried out.
D．Where the study was made.
23．Which of the following are the researchers certain about
A．Turtles in Africa flee water often on summer nights.
B．The water is unfavorable for turtles to survive in India
C．The reasons for turtles' different behaviors are obvious.
D．Night basking is caused by the change of water temperature.
24．How does the author feel about the finding
A．Skeptical. B．Positive.
C．Surprised. D．Desperate.

With China's large trade volume, the increased use of the Chinese currency renminbi (RMB) in international trade will help stabilize the international trading system, a leading business insider has said.
The RMB, or the yuan, is getting increasingly popular and acceptable as more and more countries are willing to sign currency exchange deals with China, and more countries are starting to use the currency to settle cross border trade, said Wu Kegang, director of BCC LinkTo China, a partnership project between the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) and the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade.
“I think in the future, a large number of Chinese companies who are dealing with international trade probably will start using RMB as the currency of settlements，” Wu told Xinhua in a recent interview. “When that happens, then the Chinese currency would truly become the international currency of choice.”
Noting that China has been the largest trader of the world for several years, Wu told Xinhua that the speeding up of the currency's internationalization is very timely and “doesn't surprise me at all.”
He said the volume of China's trade is seen as an important stabilizing factor of global trading system now, and the currency getting more involved in international trade will be able to help stabilize the international trading system and also boost confidence for the Chinese economy.
During the interview, he also refuted some negative reports about China from many international observers, “particularly they use the Western economic theory to monitor and observe Chinese economy.”
Wu, who just came back from a two month trip in China, said the situation on the ground is a lot more stable. “The manufacturing, the economy is a lot more stable than the media have reported over the last three years，” he noted.
“The internationalization of the currency will also provide evidence for the outside world to see how strong and resilient (有弹性的) the economy is，” he said.
1．What is Wu's attitude towards the internationa lization of the Chinese currency
A．Pessimistic. B．Surprised.

Passage 2
“How beautiful the jasmine (茉莉花) is! A sweet smell covers the budding twigs. So fragrant, so white, admired by all lips.” The famed Chinese folk song JasmineFlower has reached a global audience with its beautiful melody and lyrics. Equally popular is the traditionally made Jasmine tea, whose elegant fragrance and mellow taste fascinate countless tea drinkers.
Chen Chengzhong has a big say in the production of Jasmine tea as he is a practitioner of Fuzhou Jasmine tea scenting techniques. The 72 year old tea maker started his career early in his teenage years, when he became an apprentice in a state owned tea factory.
Jasmine tea is a kind of tea scented (带有某种香味) with the fragrance of jasmine blossoms and typically has green tea as its base. The natural scenting process consumes fresh jasmine blossoms, picked during the daytime when the buds are closed, Chen said. And the green tea leaves from the spring harvest are stored until the most fragrant jasmine blossoms in late summer.
The hot and humid climate and the red soil in East China's Fujian province provide favorable conditions for jasmine and tea plants to thrive, becoming the high quality ingredients that are needed for Jasmine tea. “Our jasmine flowers and tea leaves are all sourced from Fujian in large quantities, despite the fact that they are pricier than those from other origins，” Chen said.
When the fresh jasmine flowers are harvested, they are mixed with layers of tea leaves. Workers stir (搅拌) the tea leaves and flowers overnight, allowing the leaves to absorb the fragrant scent of the jasmine blossoms.
In the morning, the flowers are sorted, the leaves are dried, and the process is repeated. More repetition makes for a more robust jasmine flavor, and it takes at least nine scenting processes to produce Jasmine tea of a superb grade.
Having been appointed as the representative practitioner of Fuzhou Jasmine tea scenting techniques, Chen now focuses more on passing on the scenting techniques, giving lectures to students and apprentices. Chen's son Chen Zheng is motivated to follow in his father's footsteps and move forward with the scenting techniques. “Like my father, I also hope to practice this traditional skill that has profound cultural deposits, and pass it on，” Chen Zheng said.
5．What is the author's purpose of quoting the song JasmineFlower
A．To tell us not to neglect the song.
B．To show the popularity of the song.
C．To introduce the topic—Jasmine tea.
D．To clarify the origin of Jasmine tea.
6．Why are Fujian's jasmines and tea leaves the high quality ingredients
A．Because their fragrances are mixed together.
B．Because Fujian is rich in jasmines and tea leaves.
C．Because they are pricier than those from other areas.
D．Because Fujian has suitable climate and soil conditions.
7．Which of the following is RIGHT about the process of making Jasmine tea
A．It uses the most fragrant jasmine blossoming in early summer.
B．It takes at most nine scenting processes to produce Jasmine tea of a superb grade.
C．Tea leaves should be mixed with fresh jasmine flowers to absorb their fragrance.
D．Fresh jasmine blossoms are picked during the daytime when the buds are opened.
8．What does Chen Zheng want to do

B．Practice and pass on Jasmine tea scenting techniques.
C．Give lectures to students and apprentices.
D．Become an apprentice in a state owned tea factory.
Passage 3
Massimo Bottura, a three Michelin Starred chef, has extended his culinary (烹饪的) empire globally. However, he says that the peak of all of his achievements is Milan's Refettorio Ambrosiano and the following 12 global branches.
At Refettorio Ambrosiano, dinner guests are greeted by name. They dine on fine china at tables created by the country's most sought after furniture designers. The waiters are polite, and the chefs have been trained under the finest restaurateurs in the world. The set menu changes every day, depending on what comes in with the morning's delivery.
This morning's delivery contains dry arugula (芝麻菜), chicken close to its sell by date and too ugly to be sold oranges. By dinner, however, the supermarket castoffs have been transformed into a three course meal. The 100 or so diners—refugees, the homeless, and the unemployed—enjoy the meal with obvious pleasure, laughing with the volunteer waiters, praising the volunteer chefs, and forgetting, at least for an hour, the challenges of a life lived on the streets.
The brightest gems in Bottura's culinary empire are not restaurants at all. He thinks of them as spaces that shine a light on the dignity of their guests while focusing attention on the food waste problem by turning foods that were otherwise going to be headed toward rubbish bins into Michelin Guide worthy meals.
Bottura first thought of Refettorio Ambrosiano as a pop up concept for the 2015 World Expo in Milan. The organizers had invited him to cook for the grand opening. Bottura proposed something different. He wanted to invite the world's best chefs to cook with him for the city's homeless, using leftovers. That idea soon got supported and turned into something more permanent.
Today, the Refettorio is “a movement，” Bottura says. “It is a model for fighting food waste and isolation on the front lines. And it starts by looking at an old carrot or a piece of hard bread and catching sight of gold.”
9．How do the Refettorio Ambrosianos differ from Bottura's other restaurants
A．The waiters are well trained.
B．The tables are custom made.
C．They are three Michelin starred.
D．Daily delivery decides the set menu.
10．Which of the following best describes the event at Refettorio Ambrosiano
A．An evening gathering for local chefs.
B．A charity sale of supermarket castoffs
C．A wealthy meal for the less fortunate.
D．A volunteer training for the homeless
11．What does Bottura think of the Refettorio
A．It's his best profitable restaurant.
B．It's a good project for food safety.
C．It's a pop up concept to extend his business.
D．It's win win for the environment and society.
12．Which can be a suitable title for the text
A．Less Waste, More Taste.
B．A Dinner of Dignity
C．Best Restaurant, Best Service.
D．The Power of Food
Passage 4
In conversations with strangers, people commonly tend to think they should speak less than half the conversation time to be likable. But we've discovered this idea is wrong. Our data shows that people tend to think they should speak about 45% of the time to be likable in a one on one conversation with someone new. However, it appears speaking up a bit more is actually a better strategy.
In our research, we randomly assigned people to speak for 30%, 40%, 50%, 60% of the time in a conversation with someone new. We found that the more they spoke, the more they were liked by their new partners. This was only one study with 116 participants, but the outcome is supported by other researchers' findings. For example, a previous study randomly assigned one in a pair to take on the role of “speaker” and the other to take on the role of “listener.” After engaging in 12 minute interactions, listeners liked speakers more than speakers liked listeners because listeners felt more similar to speakers than speakers did to listeners. This outcome suggests the reason people prefer those who speak up: Learning more about a new partner can make you feel like you have more in common with him or her.
Further, we assigned people to speak for up to 70% and even 90% of the time. The result shows it is not an ideal strategy. Our research does not suggest people hold down a conversational partner but rather that they feel comfortable speaking up more than they usually might.
Research like ours can help people gain a ‘more reasonable understanding of social interactions with new people and become more confident about how to make a good first impression. It has the obvious benefit of allowing us to carefully control speaking time. However, it does not reflect more natural conversations. Future research should figure out whether our findings generalize to more natural interactions.
13．What is the common belief concerning conversations with strangers
A．Speaking a little less is preferred.
B．Speaking half the time is the best.
C．Listeners are more likable than speakers.
D．Listeners fail to control the conversations.
14．How was the research carried out
A．By analyzing speaking habits.
B．By making comparisons.
C．By listing examples.
D．By collecting data.
15．What is the disadvantage of the research
A．The conversation time is limited.
B．Further study is hard to continue.
C．The findings are less widely appliable.
D．Interactions with strangers are missing.
16 .In which situation can the research finding be applied
A．Attending a family gathering.
B．Partying with your friends.
C．Meeting a new teacher.
D．Making a public speech.
Passage 5
If you visited a big aquarium such as SeaWorld or the Miami Seaquarium a decade ago. Performances by tiger whales were probably a centerpiece of the visiting experience. However, animal advocates have pushed to end the harmful practice of keeping these enormous whales locked up in small pools and forcing them to perform for audiences. Now the good news is emerging from this continuing movement. Lolita, one tiger whale living in the Miami Seaquarium, may soon be released to the Salish Sea where her mother lives.
Lolita's possible homecoming is a longtime coming. The enormous animal was caught in 1970 in the Salish Sea, a body of water off the coast of Washington, which his home to tiger whales. Until now she has spent the past 52 years in captivity in Miami. Her tank is considered the smallest among those of captive whales in America. She has been forced to perform for crowds for decades. This has resulted in injuries. She has hit her head while performing “fast swims”， and her blood work has been abnormal.
Whales in captivity can suffer severe health issues. Lolita outlived her tank mate Hugo, who died of aneurism (动脉瘤) caused by hitting his head on the aquarium walls. “Lolita's lucky，” said Howard Garrett, a whale researcher and activist. “It's against all odds that she is still alive. I think it's her mental health that keeps her physical health in good shape. She is a complete miracle in her ability to stay healthy.”
According to the United States Department of Agriculture, Lolita may not be getting enough food and water. This only adds to the list of health concerns which can appear in captivity. Activists who have been pushing for decades may at last see Lolita return to the Salish Sea, where her mother, a 93 year old tiger whale known as “Ocean Sun”， leads a pod. Returning these magnificent creatures to their natural habitat is a humane solution advocated for by the likes of the International Marine Mammal Project.
17．Which of the following best describes Lolita
A．She got many injuries while performing for audiences over 50 years.
B．Her blood works well though she suffers severe health problems.
C．She was caught on the beach in Miami as a result of her injuries.
D．She was switched to a bigger tank because of her mate's attack.
18．Why is Lolita in good physical health according to Howard Garrett
A．Her mental state is sound.
B．Hugo influenced her positively.
C．She gets timely medical treatment.
D．Whale researchers offer necessary aids.
19．What can we know from the last paragraph
A．Activists have succeeded in accomplishing the project.
B．Lolita will definitely fit in with the pod led by her mother.
C．Joint efforts are being made to release creatures like Lolita.
D．There's little hope for Lolita to return to her natural habitat.
20．What is the best title of the passage
A．Lolita, the Last Tiger Whale in the World
B．Lolita, Released to the Salish Sea
C．Animals in Capacity Are Suffering a Lot
D．Lolita May Soon Go Free from Captivity
Passage 6
While the rest of us are sleeping, freshwater turtles (龟) from Central America to Asia are getting out of the water and basking (月光浴) at night. There have been reports of this behavior before, but now a new study is the first to document the widespread occurrence. The findings suggest this may be a common and almost entirely overlooked aspect of many species' ecology.
Dr. Donald McKnight, one of the researchers, said he and a colleague first observed freshwater turtles night basking at the Ross River in Townsville, Australia. “We think it's related to temperature. The water is staying so warm at night that it's actually warmer than the turtles like to be and they can cool down by coming out of the water，” says McKnight.
For the study, researchers put cameras to watch the night activity of as many freshwater turtle species as possible. The cameras were set up in 25 locations. They were programmed to take a photo every two minutes. They collected data on 29 species of freshwater turtles.
It would be lovely to think the turtles are just enjoying some leisure time when things are quiet. But the researchers note that in most cases, the turtles got out of water when the water was too warm and the air was cooler. Given the warming planet, that's admittedly a bit depressing. However, not all of the nighttime baskers were escaping too warm water. According to the study, turtles in India exhibited more basking on cooler nights, rather than warmer nights, and those in Africa spent more time basking at night in winter than in summer. The reasons for these differences are unclear. It may be that at some sites or seasons, turtles are escaping
unfavourably warm water temperatures, while at others, they are taking advantage of the warm air to increase their body temperature and escape unfavourably cold water.
Regardless of the “why” behind different species' reasons for midnight basking, it's a fascinating look at behaviors not previously documented by scientists. And it is at least encouraging to know that turtles are figuring out important behaviors tied to climate change.
21．Why do the freshwater turtles from Australia get out of water at night
A．To search for extra food.
B．To avoid natural enemies.
C．To cool themselves down.
D．To enjoy the quietness outside.
22．What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A．How the study was conducted.
B．What the study brought about.
C．Why the study was carried out.
D．Where the study was made.
23．Which of the following are the researchers certain about
A．Turtles in Africa flee water often on summer nights.
B．The water is unfavorable for turtles to survive in India
C．The reasons for turtles' different behaviors are obvious.
D．Night basking is caused by the change of water temperature.
24．How does the author feel about the finding
A．Skeptical. B．Positive.
C．Surprised. D．Desperate.
