Grizzly bears,which may grow to about 2.5 m long and weigh over 400 kg,occupy a conflicted corner of the American psyche—we revere(敬畏) them even as they give us frightening dreams.Ask the tourists from around the world that flood into Yellowstone National Park what they most hope to see,and their answer is often the same:a grizzly bear.
"Grizzly bears are re-occupying large areas of their former range,"says bear biologist Chris Servheen.As grizzly bears expand their range into places where they haven't been seen in a century or more,they're increasingly being sighted by humans.
The western half of the U.S.was full of grizzlies when Europeans came,with a rough number of 50,000 or more living alongside Native Americans.By the early 1970s,after centuries of cruel and continuous hunting by settlers,600 to 800 grizzlies remained on a mere 2 percent of their former range in the Northern Rockies.In 1975,grizzlies were listed under the Endangered Species Act.
Today,there are about 2,000 or more grizzly bears in the U.S.Their recovery has been so successful that the U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service has twice attempted to de-list grizzlies,which would loosen legal protections and allow them to be hunted.Both efforts were overturned due to lawsuits from conservation groups.For now,grizzlies remain listed.
Obviously,if precautions(预防) aren't taken,grizzlies can become troublesome,sometimes killing farm animals or walking through yards in search of food.If people remove food and attractants from their yards and campsites,grizzlies will typically pass by without trouble.Putting electric fencing around chicken houses and other farm animal quarters is also highly effective at getting grizzlies away."Our hope is to have a clean,attractant-free place where bears can pass through without learning bad habits,"says James Jonkel,longtime biologist who manages bears in and around Missoula.
(1)、How do Americans look at grizzlies?A、They cause mixed feelings in people. B、They should be kept in national parks. C、They are of high scientific value. D、They are a symbol of American culture.(2)、What has helped the increase of the grizzly population?A、The European settlers' behavior. B、The expansion of bears' range. C、The protection by law since 1975. D、The support of Native Americans.(3)、What has stopped the U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service from de-listing grizzlies?A、The opposition of conservation groups. B、The successful comeback of grizzlies. C、The voice of the biologists. D、The local farmers' advocates.(4)、What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A、Food should be provided for grizzlies. B、People can live in harmony with grizzlies. C、A special path should be built for grizzlies. D、Technology can be introduced to protect grizzlies. -

It should be one of the main goals in today's society to reduce plastic consumption.Though many believe recycling will solve the problem,and continue using plastic,it's actually the opposite.In 2013,254 million tonnes of trash was produced in the US alone,and only around 30% was recycled.This means the rest ended up in a landfill and will stay there for up to 1,000 years.
Now Asian countries,including Vietnam and Thailand,are looking for new ideas to avoid plastic.One of those ideas was a new,eco-friendly way to pack their goods by avoiding plastic packaging.One of Perfect Homes Chiangmai's team members noticed a creative way to reduce plastic that a supermarket called Rimping Supermarket was using.Little did he know that people all around the world would absolutely love this idea."I just entered to get a few items while we were waiting to sign some contracts with our lawyer,who was delayed.When I noticed the vegetables wrapped in banana leaves,I simply liked the idea.So I took a few pictures and posted them online," he said.
With more than 3.5 million views and over 17 thousand shares,the idea became something people can encourage more supermarkets to implement(实施).
Some have noticed that not everything on the shelves is completely plastic-free to which the supermarket responded that they are taking one step at a time,but it's not that easy.Many products come to the supermarkets pre-packaged and many companies are interested in wrapping their produce in plastic since it is the cheapest and the easiest option.
It's now up to the shoppers to show the supermarket which they prefer.If everyone opts for the banana leaf packaging,they will probably stop stocking the items in plastic.
(1)、What can we infer about recycling from paragraph 1?A、The author thinks highly of recycling. B、The US did a great job in recycling in 2013. C、Recycling has failed to solve the plastic problem. D、Recycling helps a lot in reducing plastic consumption.(2)、Why did the man go to Rimping Supermarket?A、To buy some items. B、To look for new ideas there. C、To take photos of their shelves. D、To sign a contract with a lawyer.(3)、What does the underlined phrase "opts for" in the last paragraph probably mean?A、Doubts. B、Increases. C、Dislikes. D、Chooses.(4)、What is the best title of the text?A、Leaf Packaging Spreads Rapidly B、Reducing Plastic Consumption C、Recycling Avoids Plastic Packaging D、A Good Option Makes a Difference -
