入舵市安恙阳光实验学校Unit 4 Wildlife protectionⅠ.阅读理解AKBG84 is a oneofakind girl band in Japan consisting of 33 singing and dancing grannies，with an average age of 84.The oldest member，Haru Yamashiro，is 97 years old!The new band，based in the remote island of Kohama in Okinawa，is a huge hit in the country—so much so that the members are rather shocked by their success.Their first single—titled Come on and Dance，Kohama Island—has made it to the top of the charts，and they've just completed a sellout tour of Japan.“We felt like stars in Tokyo，”added 86yearold Hideko Kedamori.“Everyone in the audience had a big smile，which gave us the energy to sing our hearts out.We're blessed to have been born in Kohama.Our lyrics are about the island and nature—whales in the sea spouting or dolphins doing somersaults (空翻)．”Regardless of the lyrics，these elderly women are incredibly charming when they perform.Their energy and enthusiasm are amazing，considering their age.In fact，no one under the age of 80 is allowed into the band.It turns out that the pop queens are blessed with incredible genes—Okinawan islanders have one of the highest life expectancies in the world.Their diet chiefly consists of vegetables and local purplefleshed s weet potatoes，with practically no added sugar.Menaka said she isn't particular about her diet.“I look after my health by cleaning my home，wiping the floors，steaming rice，”she said.“I stay in the shade when it's too hot.I don't want to get burnt.I have to take care of my skin—I'm still young at heart！”[语篇解读] 本文主要讲述了一个由33位平均年龄为84岁的奶奶组成的乐队大获成功的故事。

problems between them.Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2016·沈阳第一次质量监测)In 2013 alone at least 20,000 African elephants were killed for their teeth.In South Africa over the last two years more than 2,200 rhinos were killed for their horns.These numbers are alarming,because current rates of illegal hunting are faster than birth rates,which could lead to extinction of these ecologicallyimportant creatures in the environment.Indeed,some elephant and rhino populations are on track to be locally extinct within the next decade.If you are reading this,you may already be aware of these facts.But you might not know that wildlife trafficking(非法交易) not only threatens the existence of elephants and rhinos but is also leading to extinction of other species,such as tigers,tortoises,sea turtles,and the world’s most trafficked mammal(哺乳动物)—pangolins.Pangolins are the only mammals that are entirely covered in tough scales(鳞),which makes them look very strong.But actually they are endangered mammals.There are eight different species of pangolins,four in Asia and four in Africa,and all are threatened with extinction.Although pangolins are protected throughout most of the countries where they live,high demand in East Asia,where the delicious pangolin meat is considered a delicacy and where their scales are used in traditional medicines,is driving an illegal trade in both live animals and pangolin parts.The number of pangolin trafficking is shocking.Experts believe that over the last 10 years more than 1 million pangolins were taken from the wild.It is estimated that between 40,000 and 81,250 pangolins were killed for the illegal trade in 2013 alone.In February,the United States released a plan to deal with wildlife trafficking,which lays out the steps we will take to fight the illegal trade in wildlife,including pangolins.We are strengthening the carrying out of the plan;building international cooperation and contribution to protect wildlife;raisingawareness to drive down the demand that is fuelling the illegal trade.Get involved and remember World Wildlife Day(March 3) by spreading the e social media and tell everyone that now it is time to get serious about wildlife crime and end the demand that threatens species,big and small,from the huge elephant to the shy pangolin.1.How many endangered creatures are mentioned in the passage?A.4.B.5.C.6.D.7.2.Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?A.Eight species of pangolins live on the same continent.B.Pangolins are not protected in most of their natural habitats.C.The scales of pangolins can be used as an ingredient for cooking.D.High demand contributes to the illegal trade of pangolins in East Asia.3.What can we know about the plan released by the US?A.Social media will be used to spread World Wildlife Day.B.Whether the plan will be worked out remains to be seen.C.The US will work together with other countries to protect wildlife.D.More and more people are advised to increase their needs of pangolins.4.What is the author’s intention of writing the passage?A.T o inform us something about World Wildlife Day.B.To raise awareness of protecting endangered wildlife.C.To explain why pangolins are illegally traded in East Asia.D.T o show how the United States is to fight the illegal trade in wildlife.BI love to read before I go to sleep.It usually makes me feel calm.But a big part of this depends on what I read.I love to read Oor Wullie and The Broons.Very often I'm smiling before I go to sleep.I decide to write about this in a blog because I find that so many of us go to sleep with stress.Before we go to sleep，we may run over the day in our minds，and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV，read the news on our smart phones or tablets，or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming(宣告)all the good that's happening in the world and work emails make us feel that we're still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but，with the odd exception，I mostly avoid anything that is too mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless it's something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating，when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up a trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure I get a peaceful night's sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.I'd suggest you find lighthearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime，especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time，or if you find difficulty winding at the end of a day.It is the thing that can gently turn your attention towards lightness and ease.If your material makes you laugh，then you may feel even better.Several studiesshow that laughter boosts happy chemicals in the brain，it strengthens the immune system，it's good for the heart，and it is most definitely good for mental health.It even helps us improve our relationships.And if you do happen to pick up a copy of Oor Wullie or The Broons，I hope you find it just as entertaining as I do.1．What can we learn about Oor Wullie and The Broons?A．They make people run over the past days.B．They are the best books to be read before people sleep.C．They are extremely popular with young people.D．They make people feel relaxed and happy.2．What can we know from the text?A．Oor Wullie and The Broons are the author's favorite books.B．A comfortable blanket makes people go to sleep easily.C．The author sometimes reads something about inspirations.D．Reading something stimulating at night helps get a peaceful sleep.3．What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A．What material brings us laughter.B．How laughter affects our health.C．What benefits laughter brings to us.D．Why laughter is good for us.4．What's the main purpose of the text?A．To show the importance of reading before sleeping.B．To prove the importance of a good mood before sleeping.C．To tell us how to make ourselves stay relaxed before sleeping.D．To explain how to choose a book worthy to be read before sleeping.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

You want to be confident and feel confident, but what if you're starting with little or no confidence? True self-confidence isn't an overnight acquisition. It takes dedication to realize you are a good human being that is worthy of respect and love.Recognize your insecuritiesWhat does that voice in the back of your mind say? Why do you feel uncomfortable or ashamed of yourself? This could be anything from regrets to friends at school or negative experience. Whatever is making you feel unworthy, or ashamed, identify it, give it a name, and write it down. You can also tear these written pieces to start feeling positive on those points.Get rid of insecurities graduallyEach day you should weaken it. There's no quick fix. Get to the root of the problem; focus on it and understand that you need to resolve each issue before you can move on. Check if it is an old past emotion and if it is really still relevant or applicable in your life today. And that does not mean you have to get rid of whatever makes you feel bad (many times, you simply can't). You need to learn to accept yourself, your past, your circumstances as they are, without necessarily thinking of them as “bad”.Identify your successesEveryone is good at something, so discover the things at which you do extremely well, then focus on your talents. Give yourself permission to be proud of them. Give yourself credit for your successes. Inferiority (自卑) is a state of mind in which you've declared yourself a victim. Do not allow yourself to be victimized.Be PositiveAvoid self-pity, or the pity and sympathy of others. Never allow others to make you feel inferior—they can only do so if you let them. If you continue to dislike and look down upon yourself, others are going to do and believe likewise. Instead, speak in a positive way about yourself, about your future, and about your progress. Do not be afraid to show your strengths and qualities to others. By doing so, youstrengthen those ideas in your mind and encourage your growth in a positive direction.Apply “facial feedback theory”Studies surrounding what’s called the "facial feedback theory" suggest that the expressions on your face can actually encourage your brain to express certain emotions. So look in the mirror and smile every day, and you might feel happier with yourself and more confident in the long run.Help othersWhen you know you’re of help to the people around you, and are making a positive difference in other people’s lives (even if it's just being kinder to the person who serves you coffee in the morning), you'll know that you are a positive force in the world—which will boost yourself confidence.Now, dear friends, will you let confidence keep you company? Be confident, and accomplishing your goals will be just around the corner.Title: The ways to become confident任务型阅读：（每题1分）1makes/leaves; 2.Removing; 3.causes / roots; 4.what;5.pride;6.positively;7. pitied / sympathized;8.confidence9. helpful; 10.respected一、单句语法填空1．(2014·福建，书面表达)Actually，we can't succeed ________ everything we try.2．He ____________ (employ)in writing a new book these days.3．What I need is a book that ________ (contain)the ABC of oil painting. 4．(2013·山东，阅读C)Besides，it would be grounded to protect ________ possible lightning strike.5．Health is of great ________ (important)in our life.6．I'd appreciate ________ if you could come and help me once more andI always appreciate ________ (help)me with my English in the past. 7．The whole family ____________ (hunt)for the child since he got lost. 8．(2015·四川，阅读D)But robins are in danger ________ wearing themselves out by singing too much.9．His explanation that he is at ________ loss what to do next doesn't hold water.10．His amusing performance caused a roar of ________ (laugh)in the audience.答案1.in2.has been employed3.contains4.from 5．importance6.it；helping7.have been hunting8.of 9．a ughter二、完形填空阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从以下题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

手惰市安逸阳光实验学校必修2 Unit 4 Wildlife protection李仕才一、阅读理解APeople who possess high selfesteem are able to commit better and produce a greater bond in relationships with others. Dr. Douglas feels that most people do not value themselves, but with love and selfrespect anyone can be above normality and grasp success with the family, the office, or others.We have become too reliant on intelligence, beauty, and money for our own selfesteem. The loss of esteem reduces the will and ability to set and reach goals. In a series of reading Douglas teaches how to avoid negative statements, how to change them into selffacing behavior, and how to take charge of your mental attitude. Where other motivational and selfhelp work stops with the theoretical plan for succe ss, Douglas takes everyday examples and puts them into his books. From raising children who believe in themselves to using selfesteem to help bridge the gap in the workplace, he gives readers concrete solutions to the problems that might ruin their interpersonal relations.Selfesteem building comes from filling your thoughts with positive affirmations (肯定) and learning to react to failures with motivation instead of selfdestruction. These lessons are valuable for anyone who feels that life is even slightly out of control. People who feel they have adequate esteem can learn to use it to make their success grander, faster, and more beneficial for others. Douglas approaches this process of selfdevelopment as a means of more than creating good things for th e individual but also for setting up keys for influencing good things for others.For more than thirty years, Dr. Douglas has addressed more than two million people on topics from time management to speaking effectively to raising drugfree children.

入舵市安恙阳光实验学校Unit 4 Wildlife protectionⅠ.阅读理解With weather getting warmer,animals have begun to change in response to the new condition.And some of them have become smaller.Some scientists thought this might be an adaptation to a warmer world; smaller bodies should be able to lose heat better.But now a new study has found that for red knot birds,that’s not the case.Ecologist Jan van Gils and his colleagues have been studying these birds for 33 years.Over the course of their research,van Gils and his team have found that in Russia where the red knots summer,snowmelt and spring have been advancing by half a day per year on average.Over more than thirty years,the researchers caught and measured nearly 2,000 birds.In years when the snowmelt had arrived particularly early,the birds were likely to be smaller and have shorter bills (鸟嘴).The birds leave the coast of Western Africa,where they winter,and fly north toward Russia.The birds are supposed to arrive in spring,so they can lay their eggs and when their chicks hatch out,there will be a wealth of arthropod (节肢动物) insects to feed their young.But even though the red knots are advancing their arrival date by about a quarter of a day per year,it is not enough to keep up with the snowmelt.And in years when the snowmelt arrives early,the arthropods reach the greatest quantity before the birds need them.Therefore,chicks miss out on eating well and they grow up to be smaller and have shorter bills.Being smaller and having a shorter bill isn’t a problem in Russia —but it is in Africa.There,adult birds feed on thin-shelled bivalves (双壳贝类),Loripes lucinalis.But the bivalves are burieddeep.However,other options,Dosinia isocardia bivalves and seagrass rhizomes (根茎),which only the youngest birds rely on,are not abundant or nutritious.Van Gils and his colleagues found that,in their firstyear,shorter-billed red knots don’t survive as well in Africa.The majority of birds that survive are the long-billed birds.1.How did Jan van Gils and his colleagues reach the conclusion?A.By comparing red knots with other birds.B.By dividing 2,000 red knots into several groups.C.By watching and examining red knots for three decades.D.By analyzing studies that have been published in Science.2.What influence does early snowmelt have on red knots?A.Their chicks don’t have enough to eat.B.Their eggs take more time to hatch out.C.They need to find other places for summer.D.They arrive in Russia half a day earlier each year.3.Why do few adult short-billed red knots survive in Africa?A.Because they can’t find arthropod insects to eat.B.Because they can’t access Loripes lucinalis bivalves.C.Because Dosinia isocardia bivalves they need are rare.D.Because seagrass rhizomes they feed on are not nutritious.4.What’s the purpose of the text?A.To tell a story.B.To provide facts.C.To make an announcement.D.To put forward suggestions.语篇解读:本文是说明文。

Wildlife Protection李仕才【阅读理解插花】Our “Mommy and Me” time began two years ago. My next-door neighbor and fellow mother, Christie, and I were out in our front yards, watching seven children of age 6 and under ride their bikes up and down. “I wish I could tak e one of my children out alone, ”said Christie.Then we worked out a plan: When Christie takes one of her children out, I’ll watch her other three. And when she watches two of mine, I’ll take someone out.The children were extremely quick to accept the i dea of“Mommy and Me”time. Christie’s daughter, McKenzie, went first. When she returned, the other children showered her with tons of questions. McKenzie was smiling broadly. Christie looked refreshed and happy. “She’s like a different child when there’s no one else around, ”Christie shared with me quietly. With her mother all to herself, McKenzie didn’t have to make an effort to gain attention.Just as Christie had noticed changes in McKenzie, I also discovered something different in each of my children during our alone time. For example, I am always surprised when my daughter, who is seldom close to me, holds my hand frequently. My stuttering(口吃)son, Tom, doesn’t stutter once during our activities since he doesn’t have to struggle for a chance to speak. And the other son, Sam, who’s always a follower when around other children shines as a leader during our times together.The “Mommy and Me”time allows us to be simply alone and away with each child—talking, sharing, and laughing, which has been the biggest gain. Every child deserves(应得到)to be an only child at least once in a while.【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

Wildlife Protection李仕才一、阅读理解About six months ago, I was working in a job where I sat at a computer in an office for 50 hours or so each week. My best friend, Dusty，also sat in an office at a computer all day. We often talked about what a waste it seemed to be, spending our time inside in front of a computer all day long. I ended up leaving my job, and so did Dusty. Neither one of us are sitting in an office all day. Last week, Dusty came to my home and declared，“I’m going to travel.”Of course, traveling is exciting. It’s getting to experience new things, getting to be a slightly different version of ourselves, but I think the point is more about the mindset(心态) that it allows for than the actual reality that comes with it. Waking up every day with a sense of excitement for the unknown. Approaching each interaction during the day with a sense of wonder. Not thinking about yesterday or tomorrow, and just about whatever’s right in front of you.However, the thing is, we don’t need to be in transit to be able to approach our days this way. It is possible for me to be living my normal life and be excited for the unknown of the day. I meet new people and do new things every day. Yes, they might be in Santa Monica, a few blocks from my apartment, but what’s the difference between a new person here and a new person in Australia?I read an Alan Watts quote recently, and it goes as follows：“If I ask you what you did, saw, heard, smelled, touched and tasted yesterday, I am likely to get nothing more than the thin, sketchy outline of the few things that you noticed, and of those only what you thought worth remembering... But suppose you could answer，‘It would take me forever to tell you, and I am much too interested in what’s happening now.’”Our generation seems to be eager to expand our horizons(视野). But I agree withAlan Watts. There is a lot of opportunity for horizonexpansion wherever we happen to be. I think I’ll wake up tomorrow, walk down the street, and put on my adventurer’s cap.【解题导语】旅行之所以吸引人是因为它可以让人们探索未知，但是并不一定非要去旅行才可以达到这个目的。

Based on the bestselling novel written by Ken Follett, this TV show starring the brilliant Eddie Redmayne is widely recognized as one of the best historical TV dramas of recent years.MahabharataThis Indian Hindilanguage series is liked by many people for being regarded as the simplest and the most fun way to learn about the ageold wisdom of the Indian people.It tells us about the kings and heroes who love, fight and make wise decisions.This drama is about the endless struggle between good and evil.The CrownThis story about the transformation of the young Princess Elizabeth into the queen shows everything about the British monarchy (君主制)．It includes many storylines, each of which could be made into a separate TV show.The series focuses on the ageold themes of family, marriage and politics, and this is probably what makes The Crown win popularity.语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文。
