More than 500 years ago, explorers sailed to the Americas. They (bring) a few four-legged passengers along with them: pigs. Today, there are (near) six million wild pigs, also known as boars (野猪), (run) free in the US.
Boars can cause a lot of damage to crops and soccer fields. They eat baby birds and turtle eggs. Every year, they cause $1.5 billion in damage. People do all they could to stop them, boars keep going strong.
Texas is home to half of the country's boar population. Some (place) offer hunters $5 for every boar tail they bring in. High-tech means are also used (fight) against the wild pigs. The latest is a steel (钢) cage hangs off the ground — officials lay a track of tasty corn leading to cage. Special cameras record the boars approaching. Officials watch from afar. At just the right moment, the officials press a button on an app. The cage drops and traps a dozen boars all at once.
But boars are smart. They've learned ways to avoid being (catch). They know that humans hunt in daylight. Now the animals sleep during the day and eat at night, when it's much (safe). Until we find a way to outsmart them, boars will keep pigging out on farms and gardens.

Wild animals seem to have escaped the Indian Ocean tsunami, adding weight to the idea that they have a "sixth sense" for disasters, experts said on Thursday.
Sri Lanka wildlife officials have said the waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island's coast seemingly missed wild beasts, with no dead animals found.
"No elephants are dead, not even a dead hare or rabbit. I think animals can sense disaster. They have a ‘sixth sense'. They know when things are happening," H.D. Ratnayake, director of Sri Lanka's Wildlife Department, said on Wednesday.
The waves washed floodwaters up to 3 km (2 miles) inland at Yala National Park in the southeast, Sri Lanka's biggest wildlife reserve and home to hundreds of wild elephants. "There has been a lot of evidence (证据) about dogs barking or birds migrating before volcanic eruptions or earthquakes. But it has not been proved." said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behaviour specialist at Johannesburg Zoo. "There have been no specific studies because you can't really test it in a lab or field setting," he said. Other authorities agreed with this conclusion.
"Wildlife seems to be able to pick up certain signs, especially birds. There are many reports of birds detecting coming disasters," said Clive Walker, who has written several books on African wildlife.
Animals certainly rely on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger such as predators (掠食动物). The idea of an animal "sixth sense" is a lasting one that the evidence on Sri Lanka's damaged coast is likely to add to.
(1)、What happened after the Indian Ocean tsunami?A、Many people died but wild animals survived. B、The "six sense" of wild animals developed C、Wild beasts were killed or went missing D、The coast was found in good condition.(2)、What does H.D. Ratnayake do?A、He is a zoo keeper. B、He is a wildlife official. C、He is a movie director. D、He is an animal behaviour expert.(3)、Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "detecting" in paragraph 5?A、Taking up. B、Putting up. C、Picking up. D、Bringing up.(4)、What is the text mainly about?A、Animals can save themselves from human activity. B、Animals' natural power to escape from danger. C、How to protect wildlife when disasters happen. D、The serious damage of the Indian Ocean tsunami. -

Donald Watson was a man who thought very much about the food he ate. He was born in Yorkshire, England, in September 1910. And he died in November 2005, at the age of 95. That is a very great age. Watson explained that it was because he never ate any food from animals.
When he was a boy, Watson stayed on a farm. He loved to see the animals. He said that they gave so much to people. And all the animals were so friendly. Then, one day, he saw a man killing a pig. He was very sad. From then on, Watson decided that he would never again eat meat. Twenty years later he decided that he wouldn't eat anything from animals, such as milk, cheese or eggs. He became a vegan.
Watson formed a group called "The Vegan Society". In its newspaper, The Vegan Society thought it was terrible and wrong to eat food from animals. At first, there were not many people who agreed with him. They thought it was crazy to do it. Most people thought it was too difficult and unhealthy. However, over time, more and more people began to agree with Watson and The Vegan Society.
People become vegans for many reasons. Watson and his friend stopped eating because they loved animals. They believed that it was wrong to hurt another living thing.
Now, people also become vegans for environmental reasons. Keeping animals takes a lot of resources, including water and food. Also, in some places, people are cutting down trees to create more land for cows. By avoiding food from animals, vegans hope to protect these forest areas.
Finally, just like Watson, some people believe that being a vegan is healthier. They believe that food from animals causes heart problems, a high body weight and many other health problems.
(1)、At first, Watson refused to eat meat ____.A、because of his love for animalsB because he has a lot of health problems
C. because of environmental reasonsD. because keeping animals needed lots of resources(2)、The underlined word "vegan" in paragraph 2 refers to a person ____.A、likes keeping animals B、protect animals C、doesn't kill any animals D、doesn't eat any product from animals(3)、At first, most people think eating food from animals is ____.A、hard B、acceptable C、uncaring D、unhealthy(4)、The best title for the text is ____.A、Donald Watson: A New Way to Eat B、Animal Protection in England C、The Vegan Society: A Special Group D、Healthy Eating Habits -

Young Chinese are fighting against society through a simple act of resistance: lying down. Examples of the "tangping", or "lying flat", way of life (include) not getting married, not having children, and refusing to work extra hours or to hold a job at all. "I stay at home and sleep and watch television series." said Zhang, who described herself as "lying flat" for the last two weeks leaving her job in the film industry in Wuxi.
"Tangping" (emerge) over the last few months. Some compare them to the 1950s Beat Generation in the United States. (other) call their behavior a form of nonviolent resistance. "People realize there is no upward mobility," said Yicheng Wang, a PhD student in political science at Boston University. The term developed after April post on the Tieba forum, whose author, unemployed for the last two years, described a low-effort, low-cost lifestyle consisting of just a few months' work out of the year.
"Lying flat is my movement," he (write), referring to the Greek philosopher Diogenes, who was known for living in a large container. He posted a picture of himself lying in bed in the middle of the day with the curtains (draw).
But as "tangping" gained (popular), it also brought a level of dishonor. Nanfang Daily called the philosophy "shameful". Global Times made light of it describing "lying flat" as "not a serious philosophy".
For Zhang in Wuxi, lying flat is not about giving up or withdrawing from society. "Many people want to lie down because 996 is too (tire), " she said, referring to the constant hours common in tech industry, the staff are expected to work from 9 a. m. to 9 p. m. , six days a week. The philosophy is also about giving oneself a break.

Summer is the swimming season. As fun as a swimming pool can be, it's also a major safety risk if you don't take the appropriate precautions (预防措施). Here are some tips for a safe swimming season.
If children or inexperienced swimmers are in the pool, it's very important to have close supervision. Supervisors should be an adult who can swim well and knows how to save others in a swimming pool. They mustn't be distracted with their cellphone, or a conversation with another adult. They must take that role very seriously. . More children aged 1 to 4 die from drowning than any other causes of death.
Keep a variety of flotation devices in and around the pool like a life jacket plus pool noodles or a paddle board. That helps when accidents happen. .
Supervisors should also learn basic CPR.
The steps are:
⒈Place the person on his back and gently lift his chin and tilt (倾斜) his head back.
⒉Place one hand over the other, place them over the patient's breastbone and administer 30 chest presses.
⒊Pinch their nose and place your mouth tightly over their mouth and administer two short breaths
Start again until the patient starts breathing.
Emergency department staff sometimes see significant head injuries and spinal cord injuries that come from careless diving. This happens more among teenagers and young adults. Prevent this by making sure people are only using existing diving boards that are designed to dive into deep water.
Another risk is a condition called "dry drowning". This happens after a near-drowning event in which water gets into someone's lungs. . Call 120 or go to the emergency department right away. This is very rare, but can be fatal (致命的).
A. Drowning can happen in an instant
B. Adults should watch over the safety
C. Drowning isn't the only danger with pools
D. Pool owners should be sure to have a fence around their pool
E. Call for help and start administering CPR as quickly as possible
F. A drowning person having something to grab can get out of the pool quickly
G. That means the airway is closed off and can't provide someone with enough oxygen

"What kind of rubbish are you?" This question might normally cause anger, but in Shanghai it has brought about weary groans over the past week. On July 1st, the city introduced strict trash-sorting regulations that are expected to be used as a model for our country. Residents must divide their waste into four separate categories and toss it into specific public bins. They must do so at scheduled times, when monitors are present to ensure compliance (服 从) and to inquire into the nature of one's rubbish.
Violators face the prospect of fines and worse. They could be hit with fines of up to 200 yuan ($29). For repeat violators, the city can add black marks to their credit records, making it harder for them to obtain bank loans or even buy train tickets.
Shanghai authorities are responding to an obvious environmental problem. It generates 9 million tons of garbage a year, more than London's annual output and rising quickly. But like other cities in China, it lacks a recycling system. Instead, it has relied on trash pickers to sift through the waste, plucking out whatever can be reused. This has limits. As people get wealthier, fewer of them want to do such dirty work. The waste, meanwhile, just keeps piling up. China churns out 80 billion pairs of disposable chopsticks a year.
Many residents appear to support the idea of recycling in general but are frustrated by the details. Rubbish must be divided according to whether it is food, recyclable, dry or hazardous (有害的), the distinctions among which can be confusing, though there are apps to help work it out. Some have complained about the rules surrounding food waste. They must put it straight in the required public bin, forcing them to tear open plastic bags and toss it by hand. Most annoying are the short windows for dumping trash, typically a couple of hours, morning and evening. Along with the monitors at the bins, this means that people go at around the same time and can keep an eye on what is being thrown out; no one wants to look bad.
(1)、Which definition fits the underlined word "Violators" in Paragraph 2 most?A、People who don't sort the waste. B、People who don't inquire about the nature of rubbish. C、People who don't follow the regulations. D、People who don't throw the trash on time.(2)、What are the residents dissatisfied with most?A、Short scheduled time for throwing away the trash. B、Complicated distinctions among the four categories of trash. C、Being observed by monitors when tossing the garbage. D、Being fined for improper behaviors.(3)、What is the author's attitude towards the trash-sorting regulations according to the text?A、Doubtful B、Neutral. C、Indifferent. D、Sympathetic.(4)、Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A、A Restart of Trash-sorting B、What Kind of Rubbish Are You C、A New Time of Garbage Classification D、A Recycling System Is Needed in Shanghai -

For as long as I can remember, I want to be a performer. But when it was time to go to college and decide what I wanted to be for the rest of my life, it didn't occur to me to choose drama as my major. Making a living as a performer seems impractical to me. So instead of starting drama I started pre-law, and then went to law school like my two sisters did before me. They seemed happy enough, I thought; they worked about 80 hours a week, but they made good money and could afford expensive cars and fancy apartments in the city.
After law school I got a new job and worked as a lawyer for a big company. I had great benefits, including four weeks of vacation a year, but I never got to use any of my vacation time because there was always too much work to do. I worked from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. six days a week, and when I was finished, all I could do was collapse into my bed until I woke up to do it all over again the next day.
After five years of this lifestyle, I thought I was going to go crazy. I was unhappy and exhausted, I never saw my friends or my family, and I realized I hadn't been in a play or musical since I started law school. I thought that acting in a small community play might make me feel better, but rehearsals and performances all took place during my work hours. So I made a drastic decision and quit my job.
I got a small part in a local play and then the lead role. Now I make my living from acting, and once in a while, I do some legal consulting for a little extra money. I don't get paid a lot for my acting jobs, but it's enough. I had to give up my big apartment and expensive car, but I'm so much happier now. I see my friends and family, I have free time,and I get to do something I love every day.
(1)、The writer went to law school because ____.A、his two sisters went to law school B、he was interested in the practice of law C、a lawyer's job would bring him a decent and leisure life D、acting jobs were not well-paid enough to earn a living(2)、How did the writer feel about the work of a lawyer after five years practicing law?A、Rewarding. B、Exhausting. C、Enjoyable. D、Endless.(3)、Why did the writer quit his job as a lawyer?A、Work consumed almost all his time and energy. B、He didn't have great benefits.C He hated working and wanted a break.
D. Some rehearsals and performances took place during his work hours.(4)、What is the purpose of the passage?A、To inform us that the writer quit his job. B、To show us how boring it is to be a lawyer. C、To tell the writer's story of making a living as an actor. D、To share with us the change of the writer's lifestyle and the reason. -

A golden mist settled over the cornfields. The sun prepared to rest for the evening, and I intended to follow. Saying goodbye to the clan (宗族) I was staying with, I headed back to camp. I looked forward to setting my camera aside for an evening to reflect on my time in Ethiopia.
It wasn't long when I heard a voice behind me, "Photo, photo, photo." A young Surma boy about eight years old followed closely at my heels. I breathed a tired sigh. I had no energy to press the shutter button one more time, no matter how beautiful or eager he was.
Over the past four days, many in the camp had wanted their photograph taken. I hoped the boy would find someone else to snap his photograph, but he kept following me and saying, "Photo, photo, photo." He managed to catch my eye. With eyes wide full of hope, he asked me again with anticipation on his face.
As I looked at him, half interested, an idea for a composition flashed in my mind.
I kneeled in the cornfield and instructed the boy where to stand and how to pose. As I prepared to take the photograph, his energy suddenly shifted from eagerness to shyness to fear.
No matter what I told him to do—how to stand and how to look—I just couldn't get the shot. Frustrated, I gave up. I looked at the boy, who looked alone and awkward. He'd wanted his photograph taken, and now he'd gone camera-shy.
In an effort to cheer him, I clapped my hands, saying, "That was great. You were great." Others in his clan gathered around, cheering and clapping loudly. The boy's face immediately broke into a smile. I intuitively (凭直觉地) took a few shots of the moment. That photograph turned out to be better than I'd imagined.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I printed a large copy of the photograph and returned to the Surma boy's clan.
……
As I left Ethiopia, I held onto the memory of the Surma boy's joyous tears and the collective hope of his clan.
