Located about 10km northeast of the city center，the Chengdu Panda Base is a popular place to see lots of pandas of different ages in what's close to their natural habitat．
Highlights and Travel Tips
The Chengdu Panda Base is a non-profit research and breeding(繁殖)facility for giant pandas that was originally founded in 1987 and opened to the public in 1993．The center began with a population of just six giant pandas and has since grown to more than 100 pandas．
For visitors，it is more like a nice park than a traditional zoo．The base is large and nice to walk around，since much of it is in a bamboo forest．There are also shops selling panda-related souvenirs，but the prices are usually higher than markets or shops outside the base．
Accessibility Information
While the main road is flat，the base is large，so it is better for visitors with mobility issues to ride the shuttle(往返)bus．Visitors who completely rely on wheelchairs may need help from others to guide．Most restrooms within the base are wheelchair accessible．
Opening Hours and Ticket Prices
Opening hours 7：30 am－6：00 pm
Entrance fee 55 CNY
Shuttle bus fee 10 CNY
Average time for this activity 2－3 hours
How to Get There
It takes about a half hour and costs around 30 CNY to get to the Chengdu Panda Base from the city center by taxi．You can also get there by public bus or subway，although these routes require a few transfers．

When Ariel Rojas rode her bike to Bay Wildlife Refuge in Queens，New York，last November，she planned to go hiking and bird-watching．A mile into her walk，she suddenly spotted a beautiful swan struggling near the water's edge．Ariel，30，who had worked at the Wild Bird Recovery Center in Manhattan，knew that swans were likely to view her as a predator and attack her but as she approached this one，it didn't move．
She was certain that the bird needed medical attention，so she covered her jacket over the bird's head to keep it calm，gently picked it up but then a thought struck her: What should I do next The nearest Wild Bird Recovery Center was across the East River and clear on the other side of town．How was she going to carry a 17-pound swan on her bike all that way Luckily，some strangers driving by offered her，her bike，and the swan a lift to a nearby subway station．On the subway，no one seemed to be particularly bothered by the feathered passenger．“One guy，” said Ariel，“was sitting right in front of me on his phone．I don't know if he even noticed there was a swan in front of him．”
Rojas called the center on the way，and Tristan Higgin，an animal-care manager，picked her up at the subway station and drove the bird，her bike，and Rojas to the facility．There，staff members determined that the swan might have heavy metal poisoning，caused by taking in weights used on fishing lines．The staff got the swan back up on her feet．She even made friends at the center—another injured swan．Sadly，even with all that loving care，the swan didn't pick up．Two months after Rojas came to her aid，she passed away．It's a disappointing ending，but the real story is just how far some people are willing to go to save a swan in the big city．In all，Rojas traveled two hours on foot，by car，and by subway while dragging her bike．

4．What does the underlined word “predator” in paragraph 1 mean
A．A potential volunteer
B．A likely audience．
C．A potential killer．
D．A likely helper．
√
C [词义猜测题。画线词后文“and attack her”“but as she approached this one，it didn't move”说明正常情况下天鹅会把她当成可能的敌人而攻击她，但是当作者靠近它时，它没有动，从而推知天鹅很可能会把她视为“可能的敌人”，C项“潜在的杀手”与之最为接近。故选C项。]
5．According to the passage，which of the following statements is true
A．It was easy for Ariel to carry the little swan．
B．The swan ran into her way and was hit．
C．Rojas sent the swan to the center all by herself．
D．The swan was kindly and lovingly treated．

D [细节理解题。根据第二段中“How was she going to carry a 17-pound swan...to a nearby subway station．”可知，天鹅很重，不容易搬运，并且，一路上不是她独自把天鹅送去野生动物康复中心的，故排除A、C两项；根据第一段中“she suddenly spotted a beautiful swan struggling near the water's edge”排除B项；根据最后一段中“Sadly，even with all that loving care，the swan didn't pick up．”等内容可知，这只天鹅受到了热情体贴的关怀。故选D项。]
6．Which of the following can best describe Rojas
A．Kind-hearted and imaginative．
B．Caring and helpful．
C．Strong-minded and energetic．
D．Positive and creative．
B [推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句可知，Rojas为了救助天鹅，不辞劳苦，从而推知，她是个有爱心且乐意施助的人。故选B项。]
√
7．What may be the best title for the passage
A．A Poor Swan
B．A Volunteer Loving and Saving Birds
C．An Act of Love to Save a Swan
D．A Poor Swan Surrounded with Love
√
C [标题归纳题。根据第二段中的“Luckily，some strangers driving by offered her，her bike，and the swan a lift to a nearby subway station．”和最后一段最后两句可知，文章讲述了Ariel Rojas在骑行时发现了一只需要救助的天鹅。最终在陌生司机等人的不断帮助下，她成功将天鹅送到了康复中心。这个故事展示了人们为拯救野生动物所付出的努力，C项“挽救天鹅的爱的行动”最适合作文章标题。故选C项。]

Solutions to Climate Change
There are personal lifestyle changes that you can make and that，to some extent，can help reduce your carbon impact．Not all are right for everybody．But applying just a few of them could make a difference．
Move closer to work．
Transportation is one of the leading sources of greenhouse gas emissions． 1 One way to dramatically cut transportation fuel needs is to move closer to work，use mass transportation，or switch to walking，cycling or some other modes of transport that does not require anything other than human energy．
Consume less．
2 Whether by quitting an automobile or employing a reusable grocery sack，cutting back on consumption results in fewer fossil fuels being burned to extract，produce and ship products around the globe．
3 .
A potentially simpler and even bigger effect can be produced by doing more with less．Citizens of many developed countries are energy-wasters，whether by speeding in a gas-wasting vehicle or leaving the lights on when not in a room．Similarly，employing more efficient refrigerators，air conditioners and other appliances can cut electricity bills． 4 You can turn the lights or your computers off when you leave the office．
Stop cutting down trees．
When purchasing wood products，such as furniture or flooring，buy used goods or，failing that，wood proved officially to have been sustainably harvested．The Amazon rainforest and other forests are more than the lung of the earth． 5 .
A．Be energy efficient．
B．Use few electrical appliances．
C．But it doesn't have to be that way．
D．Such efforts can also be usefully employed at work．
E．They may also be humans' short-term hope for limiting climate change．
F．The easiest way to cut back on greenhouse gas emissions is simply to buy less stuff．
G．Citizens spend more money on electricity to power devices when they're off than when they're on．
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几种可以减少碳足迹的日常生活方式。
1．C [根据上一句“交通运输是温室气体排放的主要来源之一”及下一句可知，有很多方法可以减少交通运输，交通运输造成温室气体排放的问题是可以控制的。C项“但不一定要那样”承上启下，符合语境。]
2．F [根据本段小标题“Consume less．”可知，本段介绍第二个减少碳足迹的方法：减少购买。F项“减少温室气体排放的最简单的方法是少买东西”与标题及本段内容一致。]
3．A [根据下文可知，本段的内容是通过使用高效能的电器减少电的浪费。A项“能源高效”能概括下文。]
4．D [根据下一句“你可以在离开办公室时关灯或关闭电脑”可知，D项“在工作中也可以想方设法减少耗电量”符合语境。]
5．E [根据上一句“亚马孙雨林和其他森林不仅仅是地球的肺”可知，树木对人类很重要。E项“它们也可能是人类为了限制气候变化的短期希望”说明树木有助于控制气候变化，与上文内容一致。上一句中的“more than”和E项中的“also”呼应。]

Located about 10km northeast of the city center，the Chengdu Panda Base is a popular place to see lots of pandas of different ages in what's close to their natural habitat．
Highlights and Travel Tips
The Chengdu Panda Base is a non profit research and breeding(繁殖)facility for giant pandas that was originally founded in 1987 and opened to the public in 1993．The center began with a population of just six giant pandas and has since grown to more than 100 pandas．
For visitors，it is more like a nice park than a traditional zoo．The base is large and nice to walk around，since much of it is in a bamboo forest．There are also shops selling panda related souvenirs，but the prices are usually higher than markets or shops outside the base．
Accessibility Information
While the main road is flat，the base is large，so it is better for visitors with mobility issues to ride the shuttle(往返)bus．Visitors who completely rely on wheelchairs may need help from others to guide．Most restrooms within the base are wheelchair accessible．

When Ariel Rojas rode her bike to Bay Wildlife Refuge in Queens，New York，last November，she planned to go hiking and bird watching．A mile into her walk，she suddenly spotted a beautiful swan struggling near the water's edge．Ariel，30，who had worked at the Wild Bird Recovery Center in Manhattan，knew that swans were likely to view her as a predator and attack her but as she approached this one，it didn't move．
She was certain that the bird needed medical attention，so she covered her jacket over the bird's head to keep it calm，gently picked it up but then a thought struck her: What should I do next The nearest Wild Bird Recovery Center was across the East River and clear on the other side of town．How was she going to carry a 17 pound swan on her bike all that way Luckily，some strangers driving by offered her，her bike，and the swan a lift to a nearby subway station．On the subway，no one seemed to be particularly bothered by the feathered passenger．“One guy，” said Ariel，“was sitting right in front of me on his phone．I don't know if he even noticed there was a swan in front of him．”
Rojas called the center on the way，and Tristan Higgin，an animal care manager，picked her up at the subway station and drove the bird，her bike，and Rojas to the facility．There，staff members determined that the swan might have heavy metal poisoning，caused by taking in weights used on fishing lines．The staff got the swan back up on her feet． She even made friends at the center—another injured swan．Sadly，even with all that loving care，the swan didn't pick up．Two months after Rojas came to her aid，she passed away．It's a disappointing ending，but the real story is just how far some people are willing to go to save a swan in the big city．In all，Rojas traveled two hours on foot，by car，and by subway while dragging her bike．

Solutions to Climate Change
There are personal lifestyle changes that you can make and that，to some extent，can help reduce your carbon impact．Not all are right for everybody．But applying just a few of them could make a difference．
Move closer to work．
Transportation is one of the leading sources of greenhouse gas emissions． 1 One way to dramatically cut transportation fuel needs is to move closer to work，use mass transportation，or switch to walking，cycling or some other modes of transport that does not require anything other than human energy．
Consume less．
2 Whether by quitting an automobile or employing a reusable grocery sack，cutting back on consumption results in fewer fossil fuels being burned to extract，produce and ship products around the globe．
3
A potentially simpler and even bigger effect can be produced by doing more with less．Citizens of many developed countries are energy wasters，whether by speeding in a gas wasting vehicle or leaving the lights on when not in a room．Similarly，employing more efficient refrigerators，air conditioners and other appliances can cut electricity bills． 4 You can turn the lights or your computers off when you leave the office．
Stop cutting down trees．
When purchasing wood products，such as furniture or flooring，buy used goods or，failing that，wood proved officially to have been sustainably harvested．The Amazon rainforest and other forests are more than the lung of the earth． 5
A．Be energy efficient．
B．Use few electrical appliances．
C．But it doesn't have to be that way．
D．Such efforts can also be usefully employed at work．
E．They may also be humans' short term hope for limiting climate change．
F．The easiest way to cut back on greenhouse gas emissions is simply to buy less stuff．
G．Citizens spend more money on electricity to power devices when they're off than when they're on．
