Making my way slowly along the cliff (悬崖) face, I gazed (注视) at the great appearance of each temple I passed. As I entered the first ce and looked up at the feitian—an imagined flying god in Buddhist art, I wondered how many hundreds of thousands of others, from near and far, he looked at the same great paintings and statues.
Sometime between the 4th and 14th century, Mogao was an important Buddhist center connecting East Asia and South Asia. Hundreds of ces were carved into a
cliff face running along the Daquan River. Located on the ancient Silk Road, one of the great trade routes in ancient times, it created an environment of artistic and cultural exchange between the different cultures.
My personal adventure to Dunhuang had taken me, by way of train and bus, from Xining in Qinghai Province to Lanzhou in Gansu Province, and through the Jiayu Pass. From there, I continued on through Yumen Pass, also known as the Jade Gate, and crossed the Gobi Desert to find this all and sleepy desert town, and to see these ces for myself.
As I explored the temples,I was amazed by the vivness (生动性) of the paintings and statues. It was almost as though they were painted or carved the day before. I had discovered the reason why people trel.
There are more than 2,000 coloured statues that were carved 1,500 years ago. More than 1,400statues are well-protected so they can still be appreciated. During the thousand years of artistic activity,the style of the wall paintings and statues changed. The early ces show greater Indian and Western influences,while during the Tang Dynasty the influences of Chinese painting styles became noticeable.
Today, the Mogao Ces stand out from the desert like a shinning pearl on the Silk Road.
6. What do we know about Mogao?
A. It was a Buddhist center in West Asia.
B. It can be easily reached by
train and bus.
C. It has carved ces on Daquan Mountains.
D. It was the meeting point for different cultures.
7. Which is the writer's trelling route (路线) according to paragraph 3?
A. B.
C. D.
8. What made the writer amazed?
A. The well-protected temples.
B. The large number of tourists.
C. The preserved coloured statues.
D. Some paintings made not long ago.
9. Which of the following best describes the wall paintings and statues?
A. Highly developed.
B. Plain.
C. Culturally mixed.
D. Noticeable.
10. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Style Changes Over Years
B. The Pearl of the Silk Road

In a world on fire and underwater, scientists he announced some good news:
Several important tuna(金鱼)species he stepped back from the edge of extinction.
Two bluefin tuna species, a yellowfin, and an albacore are no longer seriously endangered or he moved off the leading international list of endangered species entirely.
The unexpectedly fast recovery speaks to the success of efforts over the past decade to end overfishing. But tuna are not the only species scientists are
thinking carefully at the 2021 World Conservation Congress in Marseille, France, which is organized by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Researchers warn that many other sea species continued to be imperiled. For example, more than a third of the world's sharks are still threatened with extinction due to overfishing, habitat loss, and climate change.
“I think the good news is that sustainable (可持续的) fishing industry are possible,” says Beth Poloro, a biologist at Arizona State University. “We can
eat fish without reducing the population to the point where it is on the road to dying out or extinction." At the same time, she warns that the recovery should not encourage us to catch as many fish as we want. “We need to keep doing what's working." Poloro adds.
The IUCN, which determines the world's most endangered species on its Red List of Threatened Species, also announced at the meeting that some animals are moving
in the other direction, onto the Red List. Like the Komodo dragon, an lizard (蜥蜴), it is at particular risk from climate change.
Of course, the work of protection is never over, and it will require close and continuous attention to make sure neither tuna nor Komodo dragons return to the edge of dying out. But for now, people can celebrate a few wins for the animal world.
11. What is the good news about tuna?
A. They he been removed from the list of endangered species.
B. The fishing of tuna has been put to an end completely.
C. The population of some tuna species has recovered
D. The number of some tuna species increases slowly
12. What does the underlined word "imperiled" in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Dangerous.
B. Sustainable.
C. Disappointing.
D. Endangered
13. What can we learn from Beth Poloro's words?
A. We can fish tuna as much as we want.
B. Protecting tuna is a long way to go.
C. We shouldn't encourage tuna fishing.
D. The population of tuna will reduce.
14. Why does the writer mention "the Komodo dragon" in paragraph 5?
A. To introduce a topic.
B. To make a comparison.
C. To explain an ea.
D. To give an example.
15. What is the writer's attitude towards the recovery of the tuna species?
A. Positive.
B. Concerned.
C. Unclear.
D. Doubtful.【11～15题答案】

Learn to Exist in Harmony with Nature
Every time I think about Zhaxi’s words “We’re not trying to se the animals. Actually, we’re trying to se ourselves.”, the image of Tibetan antelopes appears in my mind. For them, the 1980s and 1990s were bad times. The population dropped by more than 50 percent.

【66题答案】
【正确答案】One possible version:
Learn to Exist in Harmony with Nature
Every time I think about Zhaxi's words “We’re not trying to se the animals. Actually, we’re trying to se ourselves.”, the image of Tibetan antelopes appears in my mind. For them, the 1980s and 1990s were bad times. The population dropped by more than 50 percent. There were two causes of this serious situation. For one thing, hunters were shooting antelopes to make profits. For another, as new roads and railways were built, their habitats were becoming aller. To se this species from extinction, national nature reserves were established to prove shelter for antelopes. Beses, brges and gates were added to help them move safely across different habitats. In my opinion, when harming wildlife like antelopes, we are destroying ourselves, because we are also part of nature and cannot survive on our own. Only when we live in harmony with nature can we se ourselves.

Andie Ang's personal interest in monkeys was awakened when she was a child In 1995. Ang's father saw some sailors mistreating a all young African monkey and brought it home.
Just ten at the time, Ang clearly remembers her excitement on first seeing the golden-furred little monkey. She named him Ah Boy and they soon became close companions. "I would cycle through the neighbourhood and Ah Boy would always
follow me," recalls Ang. "Neighbors would stop to look and comment, ' Oh, so
cute!' " Ah Boy quickly developed a daily routine of climbing onto Ang's shoulders to pull her hair apart in search of anything that shouldn't he been there.
But as the years passed, the family became unable to care for the monkey, so Ang turned to the internet for help. After a complicated and costly process, the day arrived for Ang and Ah Boy to say goodbye. It was a tearful parting for her. Later that day, Ang made up her mind to study monkeys. "The time we spent together made me want to know more about monkeys, the threats to them, and how we can help," she says.
After getting a Life Sciences degree, Ang went on to complete a PhD in Biological Anthropology with a specialty in Raffles' banded langurs（黑脊叶猴）, a critically endangered species which hadn't been studied for 15 years.
Today, she spends hours in Singapore's Central Catchment Nature Reserve, where the entire local population of Raffles' banded langurs can be found, doing field research in the forest. Her group has done lots of things to preserve this species, entifying and naming every monkey living in resential areas. They enjoyed discovering their indivual personalities. As a result of Ang's work and growing support among locals, the community has come to better understand the value of native wildlife. The future of this all population of Raffles' banded langurs has become a lot more certain.
