Wild animals are our friends, but many of them are getting fewer and fewer. We should try to protect them. The four animals below are now in danger.
Tibetan Antelopes
Tibetan antelopes (藏羚羊) are medium-sized animals. They mainly feed on grass. They are usually found in groups of about 20. They are killed for their wool, which is warm, soft and fine and can be made into expensive clothes. Although people can get the wool without killing the animals, people 1 kill them before taking the wool. The number of them is dropping year by year. There are less than 75,000 Tibetan antelopes left in the world, down from a million 50 years ago.
Golden Monkeys(金丝猴)
Golden monkeys are mainly found in Sichuan, Gansu, Shanxi provinces and Shengnongjia mountainous area of Hubei Province. Golden monkeys have golden-orange fur. They 2 around in the daytime, usually in groups of as many as 100 to 200 heads, or 20 to 30 heads. They feed on fruits and young leaves of bamboos. But people are destroying the environment 3 they live. Trees and bamboos are disappearing, so golden monkeys have less and less to eat.
Elephants
Elephants are very big and strong. They are bigger than any other animals on land. They are grey and have long trunks(象鼻) and tusks(象牙). They have poor eyesight, but very good hearing and smell. They can lift heavy things and break down branches with their trunks. Elephants are very friendly towards each other and towards their neighbours. Normally, they live in a group for many years. Young male elephants do not leave the group until they are about 12 years old. Now, there are very few elephants in the world. The number of them is becoming 4 because their
living areas are used for farming. Also, people hunt them for their tusks.
Wolves
Wolves are not very big. They have grey fur. Wolves have very good eyesight, hearing and smell. Wolves’ food is various. They eat animals, insects and snails. They are friendly to each other and never attack people. They do not kill for fun. Wolves are in danger, too. They are losing their living areas because people cut down forests. 5 they will have no home or food.
1．A．carefully . B．quickly C．successfully D．simply
2．A．move around B．look around C．live together D．play together
3．A．that B．which C．how D．where

He stood for some time looking at the birds .At last he said to 3．(冠词)boy，“How much do you ask for your birds？” “Fifty cents a bird，sir，” said the boy. “I 4．(not) mean how much a bird，” said the man，“ 5．(连词)how much for all of them?

13、What do people drink in Western countries? They drink coffee, of course. Tea is the drink of us Chinese. Think again. In the West, tea is seeing to be cool again.
In Western countries like the UK, coffee used to be the fashionable drink. Jenny Northam, a 28-year-old English woman, remembers that ten years ago tea was unfashionable. “At that time young people didn’t like tea. We thought drinking tea was uncool and old-fashioned. Tea was____something we only drank when visiting grandparents.”
Several years ago US____Madonna, who lived in Britain, published a children’s book____called The Eng lish Roses. She launched the book with a tea party. Since Madonna is the “Queen of Cool”, she took a big part in making tea fashionable. The British tradition of afternoon tea was fashionable again.
In Britain, hotels accept bookings (预定) for afternoon tea weeks in advance. The trend (趋向) had also taken off in the US. In New Y ork and Los Angeles, more and more cafes are serving tea.
The tea craze is not only down to Madonna, of course. People drink tea because they connect it with the idea of living
life at a slower pace.
People drink coffee and tea at different times. Coffee is seen as the drink of people in a hurry; tea of those who like to spend their time.

14、Can you remember a world before the Internet? If your answer is "no," then you are probably a millennial. Millennials are the new generation(代) of young Americans. They were born between 1982 and 1992. There are 33 million of them, and they are just starting to enter the workforce(劳动力). Many experts(专家) believe that millennials are different from young Americans of past generations. They also believe that millennials will change the workforce in important ways.
How are millennials different? They are the first generation born in the computer age. The Internet has always been a part of their lives. They spend about 16 hours a week on the Internet, and this doesn't include e-mail. And they spend 72 hours a week using other electronic media(媒体), including mobile phones and video games. They are "native speakers" of the language of the computer age. People who were born earlier will never be native speakers of that
language. Why not? They did not grow up "speaking" it.
How will millennials change the workforce? To answer that question, it is important to understand how the millennials use the Internet. They use the Internet to communicate. They visit websites such as FaceBook and MySpace every day. They share(分享) ideas, music, information, games, and friendships with people all over the world. When they start working, they will want to share their work and ideas with others.
It is also important to understand the way millennials grew up. Their parents and teachers gave them a lot of attention. They taught them that their opinions were valuable(有价值的). As a result, many millennials are very confident. At work, they will expect their co-workers and bosses to listen to their opinions.
Millennials also grew up with lots of structure in their lives. Many of them went to school at the age of two or three and played on sports teams. At work, they will expect the rules to be clear. They will also expect a strong but fair boss, like a coach on a sports team. They will follow the person in charge(主管) if he or she is fair. But they will not follow an unfair boss. They will also expect their work to be fun and creative, similar to their experiences on a sports team.
These are a few of the changes that experts believe that millennials will bring to the American workforce. But the world is changing very fast. There will probably be more changes that are difficult to imagine today.
1．According to the first paragraph of the passage, which of the following in NOT true?
A．Millennials belong to a new generation.
B．Millennials were born about ten years ago.
C．Millennials are entering the workforce.
D．Millennials know little about the world before the Internet.
2．Which is the main reason that makes the experts believe milennials are different from young Americans of past generations?
A．Millennials can speak a better native language.
B．Millennials grow up with computers and the Internet.
C．Millennials use mobile phones and e-mails often.
D．Millennials spend long hours playing video games.
3．Why do the Millennials expect to share their work and ideas with others?
A．Because they know how to use the Internet to make new friends.
B．Because they understand how to communicate with new friends.
C．Because they grow up sharing ideas, music, information with others by the Internet.
D．Because the Internet can provide all the information they need.
4．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A．Millennials grow up with more attention from their teachers and parents.
B．Many millennials are showing more confidence than the others at work.
C．Many millennials give more valuable opinions to their co-workers and bosses.
D．Many of the millennials have had fun and creative experience when they are on sports teams.
5．From the passage we know that ________.
A．the number of the millennials had come to 33 million by the end of 1982
B．most of the millennials learn their native computer languages in schools
C．millennials require their bosses to be healthier and the rules clearer at work
D．more changes will probably be brought to the American workforce by millennials

16、Can you imagine a pair of shoes that could tie themselves? All you would have to do is to put them on and push a
button. Well, this idea is becoming a real reality. The shoe company Nike created the self-tying shoe! This idea first came from the movie Back to the Future II, Nike has been working for years to create a shoe that can do this in real life. They have finally done it with Nike HyperAdapt 1.0.

To take them off, all you have to do is to push the “－” button, and the shoes will be easily off.
They haven’t been released to the public yet, and the cost of the shoes is still unknown. But you might be able to get a pair of your own closer to the holiday season this year.

17、The Spring Festival travel rush started on Friday Jan 13, 2017. It is the biggest thing for Chinese to travel in the Spring Festival. It has become the world's largest human movement every year.
During these days, billions of trips are made by travelers. The government's forecast(预测) shows the number is similar to last year's. But it is very difficult for the government to make sure the transportation goes well.
On Friday, 8.55 million trips were made on railways, 58 million by roads, 590, 000 by waterways and 1.3 million by air across the country, according to the Ministry of Transport. New services are being used during this year's travel rush to improve passengers' travel speed.
A few major train stations, such as Guangzhou and Changsha, are using face recognition (面貌识别) technology for the first time. The technology can save passengers' travel time. It is also convenient for train station staff members who check train tickets and ID cards.
The technology compares passenger's face with the photo on ID card. Now, passengers at those stations only need to stand in front of a camera for a few seconds after putting their ID cardat a checkpoint(检查站).

18、My 10-year-old Donna said, "Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow?" Donna was
a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.
"Sure, honey, that sounds great." I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a big smile.
In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. "I'll be back soon." she told me. But three days later, Lillian's sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadn't come out any more. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.
The next day Donna brought her new friend home. "Hi, Mrs. Loggia." the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she smiled brightly. "My name is Laura."
My daughter's new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled(迷惑)when Laura's mom came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. "Judy!" sh e cried.

19、Now more and more middle school students choose to study abroad. As for me, I don't think it's a good idea.
Firstly, it's said that many Chinese students spend most of their time with other Chinese students when they study abroad. There are few chances for them to improve their English. Secondly, it costs much for a student to study abroad. Lastly, many people think children can be more independent when they live abroad alone. In my opinion, every child can become independent if they can get used to doing alone .Living abroad is not the only way to become independent. So I don’t think it’s good for middle school students to study abroad.。
