A
After eight puppies（幼犬）were abandoned on the side of the road in Texas，an animal shelter came to the rescue and brought them all the way from Brownwood，Texas to Wintersville，Ohio. Their journey was，by no means，a simple one.
The puppies were first found fighting for their lives in a muddy channel. They were extremely weak and dehydrated（脱水）after being forced to protect themselves in the burning Texas sun. Once the puppies were discovered，their journey was far from over. They were immediately brought to what is known as a "high kill" shelter，and after only a few hours，were scheduled for euthanasia. Things weren't looking good for the pups. Luckily，they were rescued once more.
“There's a group that specifically goes aroun d to these high kill shelters and rescues the animals that are scheduled for euthanasia，"said Brandi Damewood，the JCHS Community
Outreach Manager. "These guys were rescued by the Corrine T. Smith Animal Center. "
The puppies would eventually end up under the care of the Jefferson County Humane Society. This is because no-kill shelters and rescue organizations often work together to aid in urgent cases. An incredible network of shelters helping other shelters enables these miracle workers to save so many pets in danger of being put down prematurely.
"We have had a lot of other rescue groups come in and they help us get some of our animals adopted out like when we' re too full or things of that nature, so we kind of help each other out, and so this was a favor to help this particular shelter, "said Damewood.
The JCHS has appropriately titled the puppies' journey "the freedom ride". The 20-leg trip required 16 different volunteers to drive a total of 1,300 miles. But it was all worth it to save these adorable pups!
"We have a board member, Michelle Zdybicki, who is very active and involved in these transport groups, "said Damewood. "They would meet at specified stops, then the puppies would be transferred to the next driver for the next leg of the journey. "
Since arriving in Ohio, the puppies have been vaccinated and are hoping to find forever homes in the near future.
1、From the passage we know a shelter ______.
A．is a place to kill abandoned animals
B．can never kill any abandoned animal
C．is a place for abandoned animals
D．can provide anything for abandoned animals
2、The underlined word "euthanasia" in Para. 2 most probably means______.
A．practice of killing without pain
B．medical examination for an animal
C．physical care of a baby animal
D．supplies of food and housing for animals
3、What may happen to the puppies after arriving in Ohio ?
A．They will stay in a shelter forever. B．They may be adopted soon.
C．They cannot escape being killed. D．They may continue their journey.
4、The passage mainly tells us that______.
A．volunteers worked together to find homes for abandoned puppies
B．abandoned puppies caused animal shelters too much trouble
C．eight rescued puppies journeyed 1,300 miles in "freedom ride"
D．shelters tried their best to cure eight abandoned animals in Texas
B
Watching wooden dolls come to life may not be one of the most popular forms of entertainment today, but with over twenty years’ experience, talented puppeteer (木偶表演者) Peter Roberts has earned himself the title “master puppeteer” because of his great ability to turn puppets into believable, almost living characters. “People are quite often surprised to hear what I do for a living and have little appreciation of puppy as a form of entertainment. But while the exact origins of puppet theatre are unknown, it has been popular in many cultures and may have been the very first kind of theatre,” he explains.
Roberts’ shows are highly original. “A puppet show can involve anything from clowning(傻逗) to storytelling,” he says. Equally diverse are the audiences he performs for. “Some are attracted by the puppets themselves, while others enjoy the dialogue.” Roberts believes that this form of entertainment can be appreciated by people of all ages and cultures.
Roberts’ interest in puppets started when he received so me beautiful glove puppets one Christmas. He started putting on shows with these for family and friends and then moved on to handmade Chinese string puppets. Learning mostly from books and personal experience, he explains, “I was already spending most of m y free time carving puppets and putting on shows, so I hardly noticed the change from students to full-time professional puppeteer.”
The puppets are designed specifically for each show, which is extremely time consuming. According to Roberts, “Sometimes wh at you expect and what you actually create in the end are two very different things. I’ve made some of my best puppets ‘accidentally’.”
When most people hear the word “puppetry”, they more than likely think of a way of keeping children entertained at birthday parties. Certainly the subject matter will be expected to be light-hearted rather than serious. However, Roberts wants to point out that puppets convey serious messages sometimes.” he says.
1、What do we know about puppetry in the first paragraph?
A．It is a most popular form of entertainment.
B．It cannot give people pleasure any more.
C．It was first brought to life by Peter Roberts.
D．Its value as an art form is not fully recognized.
2、In Robe rts’ eyes, his puppet shows.
A．usually attract people full of humor
B．are most something for old aged audience
C．display something meaningful for different people
D．involve hard work and great intelligence
3、Roberts developed an interest in puppets because of .
A．the puppet show books B．his university major
C．a Christmas gift D．some Chinese string puppets
4、What does Roberts want people to think of puppet theatre?
A．It is just a kind of entertainment for kids.
B．It can be educational as well as entertaining.
C．It is only a kind of serious art form.
D．It should be kept light-hearted.

1、Dear Alex,
I had planned to show you around Beijing this weeke nd; however, I’m sorry to tell you that I can’t.
In fact, I caught a bad cold the day before yesterday. Since then I have been coughing. And I was told that I wouldn’t be able to recover soon. So I’m afraid I can’t go with you. But Wang Lin, who is one of my best friends and familiar with Beijing, will take my place. I have told your telephone number to him and he will get in touch wih you before Friday.
I’m sure that with his guidance you’ll have a wonderful time.
