Birds flock to parks in up-market neighborhoods, avoiding those in the poorer parts of town, researchers discovered.
Anne Kinzig and her colleagues at Arizona State University studied 15 parks in Phoenix and found the most diverse (多样) bird populations in the smartest parts of town. To their surprise, the socio-economic factors explained bird diversity better than anything about park ecology—such as tree diversity and vegetation(植被) structure. In fact, parks in the poorest parts of town had the highest tree and vegetation diversity, but the lowest bird diversity. “We wouldn’t have guessed it,”says Kinzig. “It’s telling us we need to look further a field for the answer.
Her team is now trying to track down exactly what it is about posh(豪华的) neighborhoods that the birds like. One possibility is that rich people have bigger gardens so there is more habitat(栖息地), surrounding the parks. Also, they may be more likely to feed the birds or perhaps offer a better menu.
Mike Toms, of the British Trust for Ornithology is not surprised by the results. “The area around gardens and parks determines which birds visit,”he says, “And larger gardens tend to contain a greater variety of habitats and so can support different bird species.”
A spokesperson for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds adds that two thirds of UK households put food out for their garden visitors: “It’s arguably the nation’s biggest pastime—certainly more popular than watching football.”
61. What is the topic of this article?
A. Birds like gardens.
B. Birds know where rich people live.
C. Birds attract many families in UK.
D. Birds enjoy high life.
62. What causes the birds to gather around rich areas?
A. The tall trees there.
B. Enough supply of food.
C. The beautiful lawns.
D. Large population.
63. Which of the following can be inferred from the text'?
A. People in UK are very friendly to visitors to their gardens.
B. Watching football used to be more popular than bird-watching.
C. Many families in UK enjoy feeding birds in their gardens.
D. Only rich people provide food to birds in their gardens.
B
The 400 phone messages said it all. Veterans(老兵) wanted to talk, and Jeff Beers, a military history buff and the son of a retired Navy man, was ready to listen. Beers had volunteered for the Veterans History Project, a program at the Library of Congress dedicated to preserving the oral histories of American’s 19 million veterans. Local newspapers listed Beer’s number, and the response was tremendous. He’s videotaped 52 vets ever since.
“Most of them are shocked that anyone would be interested in their small story,” says Beers, 33, an assistant engineer for the city of Poway, Calif. “They ask, ‘Why now?’ But it has to be now, before it’s too late.”The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs estimates that 1,847 veterans die each day.
Beers and the other volunteers are collecting the I-was-there detail. One of the most moving came from a World War II POW (prisoner of war): “He had to march 500 miles through the Black Forest in winter. They ate bark soup and slept at local farm.”
The WW II generation comprises(包含) most of the 700 histories gathered since the program began in 2001. But, says director Ellen Lovell, they want to hear from vets of every war. “I
interviewed my brother-in-law, an army surgeon in Vietnam,” she says. “He said he shared things with me that he’s never told anyone.”
64. What do we know from the text about the veterans'?
A. They live a very happy life after the war.
B. They often told their stories to others.
C. They were highly respected by people.
D. They are becoming fewer and fewer in numbers.
65. How did the veterans feel when they were interviewed?
A. Happy.
B. Sad.
C. Surprised.
D. Disappointed.
66. What does the underlined word “it” (Paragraph 1) refer to?
A. Veterans wanted to talk.
B. Jeff Beers was ready to listen.
C. The veterans had many stories.
D. There were many phone messages.
67. What kind of stories is Jeff Beers most interested in?
A. Historical records of World War II.
B. Stories written by newspaper reporters.
C. Stories most talked about by public.
D. Personal experiences of people during different wars.
C
Teenagers at one German school are learning how to achieve happiness alongside other traditional subjects such as math and languages.
The class sit in a circle with their eyes shut and they count from one to ten: someone starts, the next voice comes from the far right, a third from the other side.
The aim of the game is to listen for an opportunity to shout out the number without clashing (冲突) with another voice or leaving a pause. On the first try, most of the young Germans try to be first, while a few are too shy to join in, but by the fifth time round, they develop a rhythm(节奏). The message: give other people space but also confidently claim your own. This is a requirement for social well-being.
The Willy Hellpach School in Heidelberg is the first in the nation to develop a happiness course. It is intended for students preparing for university entrance exams.
“The course isn’t there to make you happy,” Ernst Fritz-Schubert, the school principal, warned pupils, “but rather to help you discover the ways to become happy.”
Cooking a meal together is one of the class exercises. Improving body language under the guidance of two professional actresses is another.
The course is taught for three periods a week. Despite the happy subject, the pupils themselves insist it is no laughing matter.
“In the first period, we had to each say something positive about another member of the class and about ourselves. No laughing at people or teasing(取笑),” said Fanny, 17.
The message: self-esteem(自尊) improves happiness, too.
Research by the school shows it is not the first to start happiness classes: they also exist at some US universities, but are mainly based on positive thinking, using findings from studies of depression.
“That would be too one-sided for us. We want to show how decent food or exercise can help, too,” the principal said.
68. The best title of this text would be_______.
A. Basic things for happiness
B. Having a try to be happy
C. Learning how to be happy
D. Laughing a lot at school
69. Why is the course compared with math and languages?
A. It is given like the subjects which already exist.
B. It is as important as traditional courses.
C. It is necessary for the students.
D. It arouses similar interest of the students at this school.
70. This course is required to be taken by________.
A. first year students
B. all students at this school
C. students with mental problems
D. students who are going to finish school
71. The underlined word in the last paragraph “decent” is closest in meaning to________.
A. strange
B. good
C. useful
D. ridiculous
D
I was walking along the main street of a small seaside town in the north of England looking for somewhere to make a phone call. My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted to contact the AA. Low grey clouds were gathering across the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea which nearly threw me off my feet every time I crossed one of the side streets. It had rained in the night and water was dripping from the bare trees that lined the street. I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat.
There was no sign of a call box, nor was there anyone at that early hour whom I could ask. I had thought I might find a shop open selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his rounds, but the town was completely dead. The only living thing I saw was a thin frightened cat outside a small restaurant.
Then suddenly I found what I was looking for. There was a small post office, and almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street next to it was the town’s only public call box, which badly needed a coat of paint. I hurried forward, but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside. He was fat, and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat.
I could not see his face and he did not even raise his head at the sound of my footsteps.
Discreetly(谨慎地), I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait my turn. It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the call box door.
72. At what time was the story set?
A. An early winter morning.
B. A cold winter afternoon.
C. An early summer morning.
D. A windy summer afternoon.
73. Which of the following words best describe the writer’s impression of the town?
A. Cold and frightening.
B. Dirty and crowded.
C. Empty and dead.
D. Unusual and unpleasant.
74. The underlined word “trickling” in the last paragraph probably means
A. rushing out suddenly
B. shining brightly
C. flowing slowly in drops
D. appearing slowly in a red color
75. Why didn’t the man raise his head when the writer came near?
A. He was annoyed at being seen by the writer.
B. He was angry at being disturbed by the writer.
C. He was probably fast asleep.
D. He was probably murdered.

Robinson Diaz lives in a small cottage high in the Andes Mountains of South America. Diaz is a “cable racer”, and every morning he faces the difficult task of taking the local teacher to her school. To do this, he first walks for an hour up to a place the locals call Los Pinos, right at the edge of the 400-foot deep gorge(峡谷) of the Negro valley. Here, one end of a thick metal cable has been fixed to a wooden post. The cable stretches right across the deep valley to the other side, a kilometer away.
A metal hook is fixed to the cable, with leather straps hanging from it. Diaz fastens the straps around his shoulders and waist, does a quick safety check and then, without hesitating, throws himself off the edge of the mountain. Attached to the cable by only the metal hook, he rapidly picks up speed and soon he is racing through the air. Crossing the valley by wire takes him 30 seconds, instead of the two hours it would take him to walk down through the rain forest and climb up the steep muddy slopes on the other side.
As Diaz begins his trip, Diana Rios, a 23-year-old elementary teacher, is waiting on. The other side of the gorge for the moment when he will come racing through the mist towards her at 100 mph. She will then return with him, hanging on to him as he goes back along the cable. Diana had no idea when she took the teaching job that just getting to work in the village school would be dangerous. "At first I wanted to cry," she says, clutching her hook as the metal cable starts to rattle(喀哒作响) violently at Diaz’s approach. “But I soon got used to it.” She still prefers to go with Diaz, though, rather than making the frightening and hazardous(危险) crossing on her own.
For the inhabitants(居民) of Los Pinos, the wire cable is a lifeline. For more than 50 years, it has served the community as a form of transport to and from the rest of the world. Everything that comes arrives via the cable-bricks and wood for building, sacks of rice and corn. Pregnant mothers, who must get to the nearest clinic, cross the wire during the darkness of the night, returning with their newborn babies. It is dangerous, but they have no choice.
This time Robinson Diaz makes a perfect landing on Diana’s side of the gorge. For him, the dangers of this daily journey are insignificant. “What I’m really scared of is snakes,”he says. “This is nothing in comparison.” Then Dianna straps herself into her harness and hooks herself up to the wire behind Diaz, holding on to him tightly. He turns, flashes her a smile, releases the brake and kicks away. Within seconds, teacher and cable-racer have disappeared back into the mist.
76. Robinson Diaz has a difficult task every morning because he has to________.
A. climb a long way up a mountain
B. get to the edge of a valley
C. help someone get to work
D. walk through a dangerous area
77. In the second paragraph, the writer suggests that Diaz is________.
A. confident about what he is doing
B. unaware of the danger he faces
C. careless about his own safety
D. uncertain of what he is doing
78. Diana Rios found out how she would travel to work________.
A. when she was a student
B. when she saw the cable
C. after she had met Diaz
D. after she took the job
79. What is Diana's opinion about the journey now?
A. She enjoys it.
B. She no longer finds it a problem.
C. It makes her feel very frightened.
D. It would be impossible without Diaz.
80. What does Diaz say about using the cable?
A. He does not think there is any risk.
B. He is worried about the danger of snakes.
C. He is happy that he can help the teacher.
D. He does not find it as frightening as other things.

Should Y uanmingyuan Be Rebuilt?
Yuanmingyuan. “Garden Of all gardens”, was burnt down in l860. Recently my classmates had
a discussion about whether it should be rebuilt or not.
Supporters of rebuilding the garden say only by doing 50 can we see the original sight of the garden, which no wonder reflects the Chinese civilization. And it will be another place of interest for tourists. If partly rebuilt, it will provide a comparison and help us remember the history.
Those who disagree think it more reasonable to keep the garden like this. The ruins will remind us of the past. We should never forget the history. Other buildings like Palace Museum and Summer Palace can also be symbols of the Chinese culture, so it is not necessary to rebuild this garden. Some also worry that the environment will be destroyed when the construction goes on in this district.
So you see, opinions vary and it’s hard to say which is right and which is not.。
