AFour Wild Animal Species Were EndangeredMaybe you can still see them at the zoo. But that doesn’t mean they’re doing alright in the wild.TigersAll six tiger species are endangered, with Sumatran tigers and South Chin tigers at a seriously endangered status. The main reasons for their population decline are illegal hunting and destroyed habitats(栖息地), as humans clear forests to gather timber（木材）and build roadways. Only about 3890 tigers presently live in the wild.Ground squirrelsThat’s right, even squirrels are endangered, specifically the San Joaquin ground squirrel. Native to California, USA, these guys have been disappearing since 1979 on account of the construction and human development going through their habitat. Their total population is unknown, but it could be anywhere between 124000 and 413000.GiraffesThe International Union for the Conservation of Nature recently put giraffes at a vulnerable(脆弱的) status, the level just before endangered. The giraffe population has declined 40 percent in the last 30 years, primarily due to loss of habitat and illegal hunting. Some giraffes are killed just for their tails, which are considered status symbols in Africa.Asian elephantsThe main threat to Asian elephants, one of the most intelligent animals, is their shrinking habitat. As the human population grows, people invade their land to build roads and railway tracks. Elephants in Myanmar are at an especially high risk for being captured and traded or used illegally in the tourist industry. Fewer than 50000 are left on the entire continent.21. What is the total population of tigers living in the wild?A. Around 3890.B. 50000.C. 124000.D. 413000.22．Which of the following is considered one of the most intelligent animals?A. Tigers.B. Giraffes.C. Ground squirrels.D. Asian elephants.23．What is the common threat to the four wild animals?A. Illegal hunting.B. Disturbed habitat.C. Developing tourism.D. Unnecessary construction.BDay in and day out. Rose, a neat, well-dressed, dark-haired young woman carries out her work at an office in a business park near Cambridge and spends hours studying pictures of children being abused. She watches the images again and again, looking for the tiniest details that might deliver a young victim from hell. They might be as small as the titles of books on a table, the action of making the bed or the images on the posters on the wall—anything that might provide a clue to the place where the child is suffering, and might finally lead the police to the abuser.How can Rose decide to do such work? And all that for a salary of less than $23,000 a year? She said her motivation in joining the work was to protect the public." When I first started this job, there was anger at the beginning. But when you see what the children have to endure, you know someone has to be there to protect them. If I can play a small part, I will help make a difference."The 33-year-old woman is enthusiastic about her job. Rose and her team have done what they could to put the children's life back together. They are very proud of what they have done.The nature of her work has changed her for the better. "I'm a lot more focused on the positive, much more relaxed about the world. I enjoy the good people around me," she says. Rose thinks that her job is a bit like giving blood. Maybe you don't like doing it, but someone has to.

Rose’s life has been positively affected by her job.3CThe world’s first “Sky Pool” has been uncoated, and it’ll give anyone a touch of dizziness, unless he or she is not bothered by heights.Situated in the capital’s new riverside di strict beside Battersea Power Station, the glass pool, hanging 10 storeys, or 110 feet up as a bridge between two apartment buildings, is 25m long, 5m wide and 3m deep with a water depth of 1. 2m. Swimmers will be able to look down 35 metres to the street below as they take a dip, with only 20cm of glass between them and the outside world. It’s even got a bar, folding chairs and an orange garden.The pool will be part of Embassy Gardens at Nine Elms, a huge billion building project beside the new American Embassy in south-west London. The project is creating thousands of apartments, the smallest of which are expected to cost nearly $ 1 million, and the pool will only be open to the apartments’ owners.Embassy Gardens takes design inspiration from the Meatpacking District of New York with floor to ceiling windows and brick frontages. The designer, Sean Mulryan, desired to push the boundaries in the capability of construction and engineering and do something that had never been done before. The Sky Pool’s trans parent structure is the result of significant advancements in technologies over the last decade.The experience of the pool will be truly unique and it will feel like floating through the air in Central London.Those people lucky enough to swim there will have a faultless view of the Palace of Westminster and the London Eye. It will be a selling point for developers when the second stage of the development is released to market.28. Who can swim in the Sky Pool?A. Anyone at Nine Elms.B. Visitors to London.C. People living in Embassy Gardens.D. Those who are not terrified of heights.29. What can the swimmers enjoy according to the paragraph 2?A. Having fun surfing online.B. Drinking orange juice for free.C. Appreciating the views below.D. Experiencing diving and surfing.30. What do we know about the pool from the text?A. It lies in the centre of London.B. It is 25 metres above the ground.C. It was similar to New York’s modern constructions.D. It is helpful for selling apartments in Embassy Gardens.31．We can infer from the text that .A. the apartments of Embassy Garden are fairly expensiveB. the new American Embassy has been moved awayC. Nine Elms is a street in Embassy GardensD. building the pool is not a complex jobDAs free as they make us, mobile phones still need to stay close to a power source. Soon that may change with "green" power.Three Chilean students got the idea for a plant-powered device(装置) to charge their cellphones, while sitting in their school's outdoor courtyard during a break from exams, with dead mobile phones.Then, one of them had an "aha" moment.“It occurred to Camila to say about plants, "said inventor Evelyn Aravena. “‘Why don't you havea socket, if there are so many plants? ’After that, we thought, ‘why don't they have a charging outlet?Because there are so many plants and living things that have the potential to produce energy, why not?’”Their invention—a small biological circuit called E-Kaia—uses the energy plants to produce during photosynthesis(光合作用). A plant uses only a small part of that energy and the rest goes into the soil, and that's where the E-Kaia collects it. The device plugs into the ground and then into your phone."It's the most amazing project I've ever seen in my life, plain and simple. They brought this original model, and it worked — and that's when it all changed, at least from my personal point of view and I began to support them." said Mauricio Cifuentes.The device solved two problems for the engineering students — they needed an idea for a class project, and an outlet to plug in their phones."Looking for a place to charge the notebook, which had no power, and the mobile phones, we weren't able to find anything because all the other students were in the same state of madness trying to find a place to charge their devices," said Aravena.But plants are everywhere, and the bio－circuit makes the best of their excess(过多的) power.The E-Kaia doesn't carry much charge but it's powerful enough to completely recharge a mobile phone in less than two hours.The student inventors have applied for patents on their technology, and expect the E-Kaia to go on sale in December 2016.32. How could the students get the "green" power idea?A. By carrying out an experiment.B. Just from an occasional thought.C. With the support of their professors.D. Inspired by the information in a science book.33. The device collects power by using _____________.A. photosynthesisB. a small biological circuitC. energy plantsD. the electricity stored in the device34. What can we learn from what Mauricio Cifuentes said?A. He intended to buy the patent.B. He invented the original device.C. He showed great interest in the device.D. He attempted to produce the device in large numbers.35．What might be the best title for the passage?A. A New Device to Change the WorldB. Green Power - A New and Potential Source4C. Chilean Students Find A Green Way to Charge PhonesD. A New Device Invented by Chilean Students Will Be on Sale第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
