Now China has five national parks.They protect nearly 30% of the important wild species (野生物种) in China.Let’s take a look at three of them.
Giant Panda National Park Location (地址): Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu More than 80% of China’s wild giant pandas live there! The park builds many small houses for pandas in these three provinces.Besides pandas, leopards (金钱豹) and monkeys also live in the park.Pandas and their “neighbors” can live and play together.
National Park of Hainan Tropical (热带的) Rainforest Location: Hainan As big as 4,400 square kilometers, it has a very large tropical forest.The forest covers nearly 96% of the park.More than 400 kinds of endemic (特有的) plants are growing in the park.There are 35 Hainan gibbons (长臂猿) in the park.They are the only surviving (幸存的) members of the species in the world.What’s more, Hainan’s three highest mountains are also in the park.
Sanjiangyuan National Park Location: Qinghai It is the largest national park in China.It is about 14 times the area of Yellowstone National Park in the United States.People call it “the water tower of China”, because it is home to the sources (源头) of the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the Lancang River.It is also home to hundreds of animal species.
( )51.How many kinds of endemic plants are growing in National Park of Hainan Tropical Rainforest

All aboard! Let’s take a ride on the world’s highest railway—the Qinghai-Xizang Railway (青藏铁路).Sit back and enjoy the journey.Get ready for the trip of a lifetime.
We’re leaving Qinghai Station.The scenery along the way is some of the wildest in all of China.Keep your eyes open as we race through this beautiful land.You might see a rare Tibetan antelope from your window.
Before we begin our journey,let’s learn about this amazing railway.It’s truly one of the great engineering wonders of the 21st century.When it was completed on July 1,2006,the Qinghai-Xizang Railway set nine world records,including the world’s highest railway at 5,072 metres above sea level,the world’s highest tunnel at 4,905 metres,and the longest tunnel ever built on permafrost,a type of ground that keeps changing as the weather warms and cools.
As we travel higher,the air gets thinner and thinner.Soon there will only be 50 to 60 percent of the oxygen which we are used to breathing.But don’t be afraid.Each rail car has two separate oxygen systems.One system spreads oxygen throughout the train at all times.And each passenger can also get a personal oxygen mask just like those used in planes.
Here are a few more things to think about as our train leaves the station.The designers solved three main challenges when building this great railway.First,the high altitude made the task difficult because there was no enough oxygen.Second,much of the railway runs across permafrost.Finally,the railway goes through some of the most sensitive ecology in China.Great care was necessary to make sure of the smallest possible influence on nature.
All three challenges were met,making our trip possible.All aboard! The train to Xizang is leaving in fifteen minutes.
( )55.Where are the passengers
A.On a bus. B.On a train. C.On a ship.
( )56.How does the text show the railway is amazing in Paragraph 3
A.By telling a story.
B.By using a designer’s words.
C.By introducing its world records.
( )57.How many oxygen systems are there in each rail car
A.One. B.Two. C.Three.
( )58.Which of the following increased the difficulty of building the railway
A.The changing ground. B.The polluted air. C.The dangerous animals.

A LESSON FROM NATURE
Not many years ago, some farmers were worried because hawks(鹰)were taking many of their chickens.59. E Finally they went to the officials and asked for help.
“Kill the hawks,” the officials said.“We’ll even pay you for them.”60. A
The farmers killed many hawks.Before long they didn’t have to worry about their chickens.But they now had a new worry.Field mice were eating up a lot of the farmers’ grain(谷物).
How did this happen
61. F They eat more field mice than chickens.But the farmers did not know this.When they killed a lot of hawks, they changed the balance(平衡) of nature.
When people move into a new place, they often destroy(破坏)many wild plants.62. C If the animals cannot find enough plants to eat, they will go hungry or have to leave the place.
In one part of the United States, for example, the deer there like to eat a certain kind of wild rose.The mountain lions there eat the deer.The number of deer, mountain lions, and wild roses does not change much if people leave things as they are.
But people killed many mountain lions in order to protect the deer.Soon there were so many deer that they ate up all the wild roses.Then the deer began to eat the green leaves of the young trees.The trees were important to the farmers.So the farmers thought of ways to protect their trees.Now the deer had nothing to eat, and many of them died.This was another lesson from nature.
63. D This is the lesson we should remember.
A.So the farmers began to think of ways to kill hawks.
B.It’s possible and harmless(无害的)for people to kill the animals as they like.
C.Many of these plants are food for the animals.
D.It is important for us to keep the balance of nature.
E.The farmers did not know what to do.
F.Hawks eat not only chickens but also field mice.

We’re leaving Qinghai Station.The scenery along the way is some of the wildest in all of China.Keep your eyes open as we race through this beautiful land.You might see a rare Tibetan antelope from your window.
Before we begin our journey,let’s learn about this amazing railway.It’s truly one of the great engineering wonders of the 21st century.When it was completed on July 1,2006,the Qinghai-Xizang Railway set nine world records,including the world’s highest railway at 5,072 metres above sea level,the world’s highest tunnel at 4,905 metres,and the longest tunnel ever built on permafrost,a type of ground that keeps changing as the weather warms and cools.
As we travel higher,the air gets thinner and thinner.Soon there will only be 50 to 60 percent of the oxygen which we are used to breathing.But don’t be afraid.Each rail car has two separate oxygen systems.One system spreads oxygen throughout the train at all times.And each passenger can also get a personal oxygen mask just like those used in planes.
Here are a few more things to think about as our train leaves the station.The designers solved three main challenges when building this great railway.First,the high altitude made the task difficult because there was no enough oxygen.Second,much of the railway runs across permafrost.Finally,the railway goes through some of the most sensitive ecology in China.Great care was necessary to make sure of the smallest possible influence on nature.
All three challenges were met,making our trip possible.All aboard! The train to Xizang is leaving in fifteen minutes.

A LESSON FROM NATURE
Not many years ago, some farmers were worried because hawks(鹰)were taking many of their chickens.59. E Finally they went to the officials and asked for help.
“Kill the hawks,” the officials said.“We’ll even pay you for them.”60. A
The farmers killed many hawks.Before long they didn’t have to worry about their chickens.But they now had a new worry.Field mice were eating up a lot of the farmers’ grain(谷物).
How did this happen
61. F They eat more field mice than chickens.But the farmers did not know this.When they killed a lot of hawks, they changed the balance(平衡) of nature.
When people move into a new place, they often destroy(破坏)many wild plants.62. C If the animals cannot find enough plants to eat, they will go hungry or have to leave the place.
In one part of the United States, for example, the deer there like to eat a certain kind of wild rose.The mountain lions there eat the deer.The number of deer, mountain lions, and wild roses does not change much if people leave things as they are.
But people killed many mountain lions in order to protect the deer.Soon there were so many deer that they ate up all the wild roses.Then the deer began to eat the green leaves of the young trees.The trees were important to the farmers.So the farmers thought of ways to protect their trees.Now the deer had nothing to eat, and many of them died.This was another lesson from nature.
63. D This is the lesson we should remember.
A.So the farmers began to think of ways to kill hawks.
B.It’s possible and harmless(无害的)for people to kill the animals as they like.
C.Many of these plants are food for the animals.
D.It is important for us to keep the balance of nature.
E.The farmers did not know what to do.
F.Hawks eat not only chickens but also field mice.
