Located in northern Manitoba on the west side of Hudson Bay, Churchill is out in the middle of nowhere. But polar bears like it that way. They spend summers on the tundra (苔原) around Churchill. In the fall, they wait anxiously along the shore of Hudson Bay for the ice to form. Then they go out onto the frozen sea to hunt ringed seals their favorite food. October and November are the best polar-bear viewing times. From tundra vehicles, visitors to Churchill observe the bears. Some enjoy day trips or stay overnight on large tundra vehicles that have private cabins and eating facilities. Others stay at a wilderness lodge on the bears’ migration route to view the vigorous creatures. These lodges can be reached only by air and feature luxury food and living arrangements. Despite the large number of polar bears that visit Churchill each year, there is growing concern about the animals’ future. Because the earth is getting warmer, the ice forms later in the year now and disappears sooner in the spring. As a result, polar bears have less time to hunt for seals. Polar bears can also find smaller animals, bird eggs and berries on land, but this kind of food is not sufficient to support the animals. Polar bears are also affected by plastic and chemicals that get into the ocean. A research project carried out in northern Europe has found high concentrations of both plastic and chemicals in the tissue of polar bears. These materials and substances can damage the animals’ internal organs, especially when the animals are not yet mature. Many people are researching polar bear health. Their goal is to gather the information that is needed to help save these animals. 1.What does this article imply about Churchill? A. It’s located in a very remote area. B. It’s attracting fewer tourists now. C. It’s surrounded by smaller towns. D. It’s dependent on the oil industry. 2.What does this article explain about polar bears? A. The ways in which they threaten people B. The most important elements of their diets C. The mating behavior that they exhibit D. The time of year when they give birth 3.How is the polar bears’ seal winter hunting season changing? A. It’s starting earlier. B. It’s becoming colder. C. It’s finishing later. D. It’s getting shorter. 4.What can we learn about polar bears from this article? A. How they avoid traffic accidents B. How they learn good habits from one another C. How they’re endangered by pollution D. How they find a hiding place during bad weather

“Developed and developing nations can learn from each other seeking a low-carbon economy. In terms of energy saving and green economy, China doesn’t lag behind developed nations,” said Zhou Changyi, director of the energy saving department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. “While we can learn many aspects from developed nations, they also should learn something from us, such as water conservation,” Zhou said in a speech during the new Path of China’s Industrialization forum at the ongoing China International Industry Fair. He said industrialized nations and China are dealing with different issues to fight climate change. The United Kingdom, for example, is concerned about transport, buildings and new energy in reducing carbon emissions. For China, the most urgent task is how to realize new type of industrialization and avoid mistakes that other countries made when they industrialized. Swiss power and automation technology group ABB called for a stronger focus on product life-cycle assessment, or LCA, which is used to study the environmental impact of a product from the research and manufacturing stage through its usage and recycling. Tobias Becker, head of ABB’s process automation division for North Asia and China, said LCA is an effective tool in helping manufacturing industries to reduce carbon emissions. LCA shows that industrial customers should focus on a product’s environmental impact throughout its life-cycle instead of on its initial investment. Richard Hausmann, North East Asia CEO of Siemens, said, “The color of future industrialization is green. ” The Germany company recently announces that it wants to receive orders worth more than 6 billion Euros ( US 8. 8 billion) for intelligent power networks, Smart Grid, over the next five years. Siemens has set a 20 percent market share target for the global smart grid business. A smart grid delivers electricity from suppliers to consumers using digital technology, advanced sensors specialized computers that save energy, reduce costs and increase reliability. The United States and China are considered the two biggest markets for smart grid. 1.Which of the following can best replace the underlined phrase “lag behind” in Paragraph 1? A. act better than B. perform worse than C. run faster than D. keep quieter than 2. about Smart Grid isn’t mentioned in the text. A. Small in size B. Low-cost C. Energy-saving D. Security 3.What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Intelligent Power Networks B. Low-carbon Economy a Shared Goal C. Two Biggest Markets for Smart Grid D. Developed and Developing Nations Can Learn from Each Other

How to prepare for exams? Here are some tips you can read with your child. The first step in preparing for examinations is to set a fixed time each day to study and a schedule to say when to start the revision and for which subject. The plan should include how many chapters to revise and how many worksheets (活页练习题) to work on. 1.. Parents who do not know the examination schedule can search “exam timetable” to see the official examination schedule. 2.. The second thing is to decide on the place to study. Some need total silence in a library before they can concentrate while others like to have some background music like in the cafeteria, 3. . So there is no need to tell your child to change the study place if he is producing the desired results. 4.. For lessons, pupils must participate in lessons and discussions actively. For exercise, work on the simple ones in the textbook. For theory, pupils can use the mind map method to summarize the facts. At last, be smart. Focus on chapters that are the core of the subject or difficult chapters.5.. A. Next the most effective way to revise is to use an active approach. B. Making good preparations counts. C.
