After eating, the young man introduced himself as a bird collector. “I saw a white heron (鹭) not far from here two days ago. I've been looking for the rare bird ever since.Have you seen it, too?” he asked Mary.
Mary's heart began to beat fast. She knew that strange white bird! She'd seen it on the other side of the forest. The young man was staring at Mary. “I would give $100 to the person who showed me where the white heron is.”
That night Mary's dreams were full of all the wonderful things she and her grandmother could buy for one hundred dollars.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
In Jakarta, apart from the narrow, unpaved road, the two-meter-high concrete coastal wall is the only thing that separates Susan's small restaurant from the sea. Her family depends on that wall. Growing up here, Susan used to play on the beach in front of her house. But by the 2000s the beach had disappeared, and the sea frequently flooded the neighborhood.
In 2002, the government built the coastal wall, to give the residents peace of mind and time — a respite (暂缓) from the steady sinking of the land under the city and the steady rising of the sea. But just five years later, in 2007, the wall proved no match for the worst floods in Jakarta's modern history.
Jakarta is now sinking at a truly alarming rate — a rate that varies around the city but is up to 11 inches a year in the northern areas. About 40 percent of Jakarta is below sea level. By comparison, climate change is raising sea level by only less than an inch a year. But sinking land and rising sea both point toward the same outcome: regular flooding in Jakarta. “Jakarta is the center of administration, economy, culture, and entertainment. Over the years Jakarta has grown into a big city with no environmental support system,” says Andy, a lecturer at the University of Indonesia. Ultimately that's why it is sinking today.
The situation is one reason the government announced that the nation's capital would be moved away to a new city to be built on Borneo, which is now forest. But local communities aren't so happy with the plan. They fear the project would destroy their land, forest, and livelihoods. In Jakarta, on the other hand, those who welcome the decision arguing that it will ease Jakarta's burdens of crowding and pollution.
But as the government leaves the sinking capital, what is to become of the 10 million people like Susan who still live there
语篇解读:本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了雅加达面临土地不断下沉和海平面不断上升的问题,介绍了政府准备采取的措施和影响。
1.What is the function of the coastal wall
A.To prevent the land from sinking.
B.To keep the residents from floods.
C.To stop the steady rising of the sea.
D.To restore the beach for the residents.
√
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中“In 2002, the government built ... land under the city and the steady rising of the sea.”可推知,海堤的作用是让居民免受洪水侵袭。
2.What can we learn about the floods from Paragraph 3
A.The floods were caused by nature and humans.
B.Climate change is the primary cause of the floods.
C.The rise of the sea level is the outcome of regular flooding.
D.The economic development has a great impact on the floods.
√
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中“By comparison, climate change ... Ultimately that's why it is sinking today.”可推知,洪水是由自然因素和人为因素造成的。
3.What can be learned from the passage about Jakarta
A.It is no longer the nation's capital now.
B.It is an underdeveloped city with a large population.
C.Its residents suffer a lot from the plan of the government.
D.Its measures to protect the environment are far from satisfactory.
√
解析:细节理解题。根据第四段中“The situation is one reason ... But local communities aren't so happy with the plan.”可知,雅加达保护环境的迁都措施远不能令人满意。
4.What is the author's attitude to the plan of the government
A.Intolerant. B.Supportive.
C.Worried. D.Indifferent.
解析:观点态度题。根据最后一段“But as the government leaves the sinking capital, what is to become of the 10 million people like Susan who still live there?”可推知,作者对于政府的迁都计划感到担忧。

参考范文:
We had a discussion about whether sea exploitation should be limited and our opinions are divided.
Most of us think it should be limited. First, the technology of developing marine resources isn't mature enough, causing serious destruction and waste of marine resources. Second, overexploitation will cause great damage to the marine environment and ecosystem.
However, those who hold the opposite opinion think there is a serious shortage of resources on land, making it necessary to explore the sea and find new resources, which will promote economic development.
In my opinion, we should continue sea exploitation on condition that we take measures to protect the sea.
Ⅲ.读后续写
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My cousin Isaiah and I went fishing on the lake. Midweek, no one was around here. The nearby protected wetlands ran along the shore. Songbirds, ducks, and Canada geese slid by on the breeze, touching down briefly on the water's surface before flapping (拍打) and quacking their way back up into the sky.
Standing at the lake's edge, I cast my fishing line onto the smooth-as-glass water. Down the shoreline was Isaiah, who liked to fish alone, away from noise and other people.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a few great northern loons (潜鸟) crowded together not far from the shoreline. Loons usually travel alone, but here were five of them in a group. One loon, making painful sounds, swam away from the group, toward me. It seemed like it was trying to get my attention.
“Isaiah! Come here!” Isaiah pressed his finger against his lips, pointed to where he had cast his line, and shook his head gently.
“Just get over here. Now!” I yelled.
He laid his fishing pole down and dragged his feet, moving toward me at a snail's pace.
“Come here!” I yelled again. “Take a look at that loon. It keeps getting closer and closer!”
On hearing this, Isaiah fastened his pace.
The loon stopped in the shallow water near shore, not ten feet away from us. It was so close that we could see its red eyes. Oddly, the bird's wings were held tight against its spotted black-and-white body. Though scared of its sharp beak (喙), we stepped into the water cautiously. As we approached the loon, we both saw something around its neck. Reaching down, I touched its head, my heart racing. I could see there was a shiny red-hook deeply stuck in its body, and fishing line was wrapped tightly around its neck. Left like this, the loon couldn't fly or fish or survive. It was asking us to help!

Isaiah rushed to grab the scissors from the toolbox and came back. While turning back to the spot, he shouted and asked me to grab the poor loon. Realizing the fact that he wanted to help free the loon from the deadly fishing line and hook, I did as he required. Upon arrival, he knelt down and cut the fishing line first, carefully but quickly, in case the scissors hurt the loon. Then, he pulled out the red-hook that stuck in its body gently. At the moment, the loon sounded pleasantly.
With a sigh of relief, I set the loon down on the water. The poor creature flapped its wings happily, quacking its way in the lake. Then, it swam toward us again. Using its head, it touched our hands, seemingly saying that we were to be thanked. We felt greatly moved and excited. We clearly knew that what we had done to the creature was what we should do in our daily life. We are all masters of our environment, just like living things. We should live in peace with them.UNIT 3 课时检测(八) Writing Workshop

In Jakarta, apart from the narrow, unpaved road, the two meter high concrete coastal wall is the only thing that separates Susan's small restaurant from the sea. Her family depends on that wall. Growing up here, Susan used to play on the beach in front of her house. But by the 2000s the beach had disappeared, and the sea frequently flooded the neighborhood.
In 2002, the government built the coastal wall, to give the residents peace of mind and time — a respite (暂缓) from the steady sinking of the land under the city and the steady rising of the sea. But just five years later, in 2007, the wall proved no match for the worst floods in Jakarta's modern history.
Jakarta is now sinking at a truly alarming rate — a rate that varies around the city but is up to 11 inches a year in the northern areas. About 40 percent of Jakarta is below sea level. By comparison, climate change is raising sea level by only less than an inch a year. But sinking land and rising sea both point toward the same outcome: regular flooding in Jakarta. “Jakarta is the center of administration, economy, culture, and entertainment. Over the years Jakarta has grown into a big city with no environmental support system,” says Andy, a lecturer at the University of Indonesia. Ultimately that's why it is sinking today.
The situation is one reason the government announced that the nation's capital would be moved away to a new city to be built on Borneo, which is now forest. But local communities aren't so happy with the plan. They fear the project would destroy their land, forest, and livelihoods. In Jakarta, on the other hand, those who welcome the decision arguing that it will ease Jakarta's burdens of crowding and pollution.
But as the government leaves the sinking capital, what is to become of the 10 million people like Susan who still live there

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My cousin Isaiah and I went fishing on the lake. Midweek, no one was around here. The nearby protected wetlands ran along the shore. Songbirds, ducks, and Canada geese slid by on the breeze, touching down briefly on the water's surface before flapping (拍打) and quacking their way back up into the sky.
Standing at the lake's edge, I cast my fishing line onto the smooth as glass water. Down the shoreline was Isaiah, who liked to fish alone, away from noise and other people.
Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a few great northern loons (潜鸟) crowded together not far from the shoreline. Loons usually travel alone, but here were five of them in a group. One loon, making painful sounds, swam away from the group, toward me. It seemed like it was trying to get my attention.
“Isaiah! Come here!” Isaiah pressed his finger against his lips, pointed to where he had cast his line, and shook his head gently.
“Just get over here. Now!” I yelled.
He laid his fishing pole down and dragged his feet, moving toward me at a snail's pace.
“Come here!” I yelled again. “Take a look at that loon. It keeps getting closer and closer!”
On hearing this, Isaiah fastened his pace.
The loon stopped in the shallow water near shore, not ten feet away from us. It was so close that we could see its red eyes. Oddly, the bird's wings were held tight against its spotted black and white body. Though scared of its sharp beak (喙), we stepped into the water cautiously.

参考范文:
We had a discussion about whether sea exploitation should be limited and our opinions are divided.
Most of us think it should be limited. First, the technology of developing marine resources isn't mature enough, causing serious destruction and waste of marine resources. Second, overexploitation will cause great damage to the marine environment and ecosystem.
However, those who hold the opposite opinion think there is a serious shortage of resources on land, making it necessary to explore the sea and find new resources, which will promote economic development.
In my opinion, we should continue sea exploitation on condition that we take measures to protect the sea.
