A
There are many wetlands in China and some of them have become the world's important wetlands. The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are among them. They are in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province. They are home to many different kinds of birds and animals. The world's largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve is in them. More than 700 milu deer live freely there. There are not many red－crowned cranes in the world, but every winter you can see some in the Red－crowned Cranes Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands.
The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine, too. They are really good places for wildlife. Offering food and home for some special kinds of animals and birds is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands. Wetlands are important because they also prevent floods. But some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and buildings. This means there will be less and less space for wildlife.
Luckily, more and more people are beginning to realize the importance of wetlands and wildlife. Every year, on February 2nd, many activities are held to tell people more about the wetlands.
( )41. The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are in the ________ of China.
A. east B. middle C. west D. north
( )42. Usually the weather in the wetlands is ________．

A. they are home to wildlife B. they can prevent floods

( )45. The best title for the passage is ________．
A. China's Wetlands Have All Entered the World's List
B. Wetlands—Home to Wildlife and Human Beings

B
Emily and Alex were happy when their family moved to a house with a very big garden. They could climb up trees, grow flowers and even play badminton. They liked to watch the birds fly among the trees in the garden. They even started to put food out to attract more birds.
Everything was fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strange bumping noise on a window. Emily went outside and found a small bird dead on the grass. Its neck seemed to be broken.
“It must have flown into the window，” Alex said when his sister Emily called him to have a look. “Ah, yes, look here. You can see the mark where it hit the window. There are a couple of tiny feathers stuck on the window.”
“Poor thing！” Emily said.
During the next month, five more birds died in the same way. “Why would they fly to the windows？” they wondered. Finally they found out the truth. When the birds were flying, they couldn't see into the room. All they saw was the reflection(反射) of the garden. They thought that they were flying into trees because they saw trees reflected by the windows.
“Something has to be done to save the birds，” the parents decided.
At first, the family tried keeping curtains(窗帘) across the windows, but this made the room dark. Then they bought some strong black paper and cut out the shape of a hawk. They made six hawks—one for each window. They stuck the hawks to the windows. They looked pretty and did not keep out much light. When the birds saw the hawks, they would fly away.
After that, there were no more dead birds. The family were much happier.
( )46. Emily and Alex put food out to attract birds because they ________．
A. had a special garden for birds
B. wanted to see more birds fly in the garden
C. had too much bird food to feed the birds
D. wanted to catch some birds in the garden
( )47. ________ birds died in the garden.
A. 4 B. 5 C. 6 D. 7
( )48. The birds flew to the windows because they ________．
A. found the windows very clean
B. fought for more food
C. thought there were more trees ahead
D. wanted to go into the room
( )49. The underlined word “hawk” means “________”．
A. 鹰 B. 丛林 C. 山脉 D. 燕子
( )50. The story is mainly about ________．
A. why the birds died in the garden
B. the family were good at paper cutting
C. the family had a very big new house
D. how the family saved the birds in the garden
五、 任务型阅读(每小题1分，共10分)
In the past, man did not have to think about the protection of his environment. There were not many people on the Earth, and natural resources seemed to be unlimited(无限的)．
Today, things are different. The world has become too crowded(拥挤的). We are using up our natural resources too quickly, and at the same time we are polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue like this, human life on the Earth will not survive.
Everyone realizes today that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet, with modern fishing ways, people catch more and more fish. We know that if we cut down too many trees, forests will disappear and nothing will grow on the land. Yet, we continue to use bigger and more powerful machines to cut down more and more trees.
We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, we will die. However, in most countries, people still put waste products into rivers or into the sea, and there are few laws to stop this.
We know, too, that if the population of the world continues to rise at the present rate, in a few years, there will not be enough food.
What can we do to solve these problems?
If we eat more vegetables and less meat, we will easily get more food. Land that is used to grow crops can feed five times more people than land where animals are kept.
The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth control.
Finally, if we educate people to think about the problems, we shall have a better and cleaner living place in the future.
The 51. ________ of protecting the environment
52. ________ 1. More fish are being caught.
2. More 53. ________ are being cut down.
3. More waste products are being put into rivers and the sea.
4. More 54. ________ are being born.
Causes 1. The world is becoming too 55. ________.
2. Modern methods make the situation 56. ________.
3. We are using up our 57. ________ resources too quickly.
58. ________ We humans will not survive on the Earth.
Ways 1. Eat more vegetables and less meat so that more food will be available for everyone.
2. Use modern methods of 59. ________ control so that the population will not grow too fast.
3. Educate people so that the 60. ________ will be better and cleaner.

There are a lot of insects and many kinds of plants in the wetland. They provide birds with enough food. So there are lots of birds living in the wetlands. The red－crowned cranes are the most famous birds in Yancheng wetlands. Every year, a lot of red－crowned cranes stay here for winter.
Wetlands are perfect home to birds and animals. We must take action to protect our wetlands. If we don't, it will be impossible to see many endangered birds in the future.

There are many wetlands in China and some of them have become the world's important wetlands. The Chinese Yellow Sea Wetlands are among them. They are in Yancheng, Jiangsu Province. They are home to many different kinds of birds and animals. The world's largest Milu Deer Nature Reserve is in them. More than 700 milu deer live freely there. There are not many red－crowned cranes in the world, but every winter you can see some in the Red－crowned Cranes Nature Reserve in the Yellow Sea Wetlands.
The temperature in the wetlands is usually neither too high nor too low. There is a lot of rain and sunshine, too. They are really good places for wildlife. Offering food and home for some special kinds of animals and birds is not the only reason why we need to protect wetlands. Wetlands are important because they also prevent floods. But some people want to change the wetlands to make more space for farms and buildings. This means there will be less and less space for wildlife.
Luckily, more and more people are beginning to realize the importance of wetlands and wildlife. Every year, on February 2nd, many activities are held to tell people more about the wetlands.

Emily and Alex were happy when their family moved to a house with a very big garden. They could climb up trees, grow flowers and even play badminton. They liked to watch the birds fly among the trees in the garden. They even started to put food out to attract more birds.
Everything was fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strange bumping noise on a window. Emily went outside and found a small bird dead on the grass. Its neck seemed to be broken.
“It must have flown into the window，” Alex said when his sister Emily called him to have a look. “Ah, yes, look here. You can see the mark where it hit the window. There are a couple of tiny feathers stuck on the window.”
“Poor thing！” Emily said.
During the next month, five more birds died in the same way. “Why would they fly to the windows？” they wondered. Finally they found out the truth. When the birds were flying, they couldn't see into the room. All they saw was the reflection(反射) of the garden. They thought that they were flying into trees because they saw trees reflected by the windows.
“Something has to be done to save the birds，” the parents decided.
At first, the family tried keeping curtains(窗帘) across the windows, but this made the room dark. Then they bought some strong black paper and cut out the shape of a hawk. They made six hawks—one for each window. They stuck the hawks to the windows. They looked pretty and did not keep out much light. When the birds saw the hawks, they would fly away.
After that, there were no more dead birds. The family were much happier.

五、 任务型阅读(每小题1分，共10分)
In the past, man did not have to think about the protection of his environment. There were not many people on the Earth, and natural resources seemed to be unlimited(无限的)．
Today, things are different. The world has become too crowded(拥挤的). We are using up our natural resources too quickly, and at the same time we are polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue like this, human life on the Earth will not survive.
Everyone realizes today that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet, with modern fishing ways, people catch more and more fish. We know that if we cut down too many trees, forests will disappear and nothing will grow on the land. Yet, we continue to use bigger and more powerful machines to cut down more and more trees.
We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, we will die. However, in most countries, people still put waste products into rivers or into the sea, and there are few laws to stop this.
We know, too, that if the population of the world continues to rise at the present rate, in a few years, there will not be enough food.
What can we do to solve these problems?
If we eat more vegetables and less meat, we will easily get more food. Land that is used to grow crops can feed five times more people than land where animals are kept.
The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth control.
Finally, if we educate people to think about the problems, we shall have a better and cleaner living place in the future.

九、 One possible version：
Yancheng is a city in the north of Jiangsu. It is famous for its wetlands. The biggest wetland there has an area of more than 450，000 hectares. It's an ideal shelter for many endangered birds.
There are a lot of insects and many kinds of plants in the wetland. They provide birds with enough food. So there are lots of birds living in the wetlands. The red－crowned cranes are the most famous birds in Yancheng wetlands. Every year, a lot of red－crowned cranes stay here for winter.
Wetlands are perfect home to birds and animals. We must take action to protect our wetlands. If we don't, it will be impossible to see many endangered birds in the future.
