The forest in Senegal, a country in west...

The forest in Senegal, a country in western Africa, is full of the chimps’ usual noises. Suddenly dogs bark. Larger male chimps drop from the trees to face the threat while the others climb to safety. Then the dogs’ young human masters appear.

One mother chimp with a tiny baby tries to run. The dogs attack and separate them. The two teenage boys quickly catch the baby chimp. But they don’t act out of sympathy --- they save the baby so they can sell it.

After the teenagers return to their hometown, they visit a man who is said to be very interested in chimps. When they ask the man, Johnny Kante, if he wants to buy the baby, he replies, “That’s not what we do.” Kante is a member of a scientific team. Although Kante is angry with the teens for capturing the chimp, he hides his anger and persuades them to take him to the baby chimp.

Unsure of what to do next upon seeing the chimp, Kante calls Jill Pruetz, the head of the chimp research team. “I’m really worried,” says Pruetz, doubtful that the mother is still alive. But knowing that wild chimps sometimes adopt orphans(孤儿), Kante and pruetz decide they must try to return the baby chimp to its wild community.

Kante pays another visit to the teenagers. After he explains how much trouble they are in, because chimps are an endangered species, he requests they should give him the frightened baby without payment. They agree. Kante takes the baby chimp to his home and feeds her milk from a bottle whenever she cries.

The next morning, Pruetz and Kante leave the baby with another team member and begin their search for the wild chimps. Pruetz quickly finds the group in the woods. She recognizes the female that is without her child.

Pruetz is so excited that she runs the entire mile back to bring the baby chimp to the tree where the chimps are hanging out. The researchers place the baby on the ground near the tree and back away. Almost immediately, a male chimp drops to the ground and stares at the baby curiously. He carries her back to where the mother is waiting.

Pruetz still can’t believe how fortunate they were to have reunited the mother and child. “Surprising is the only word I can think of,” she says.

1.The dogs’ master visit Johnny Kante to ______________.

A.sell the baby chimp

B.ask him to take care of the baby chimp

C.wash the baby chimp’s wound

D.ask him to return the baby chimp to its wild community

2.When Kante sees the little chimp the first time, he’s __________.

A.a bit at a loss B.excited

C.angry D.clear about how to save her

3.It can be learned from the passage that ___________.

A.Kante feeds the baby chimp carefully in the lab

B.larger male chimps protect other chimps when there are dangers

C.the teenagers get some money after setting the baby chimp free

D.Pruetz and Kante take the baby chimp with them to search for the wild chimps.

4.What is the main idea of the passage? ________

A.How precious chimps are.

B.An adult chimp’s deep love for her baby.

C.The dangers the wild chimps are facing.

D.How caring people reunite a baby chimp with her mother.

 

1.A 2.A 3.B 4.D 【解析】 这是一篇记叙文。本文叙述的是有爱心的人如何让婴儿黑猩猩和妈妈团聚。 1.细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句they save the baby so they can sell it. 他们救了那个猩猩幼崽,这样就可以把它卖掉。和第三段When they ask the man, Johnny Kante, if he wants to buy the baby,他们问Johnny Kante是否想买猩猩幼崽。可知狗的主人去拜访Johnny Kante是为了卖猩猩幼崽。故选A。 2. 3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段The researchers place the baby on the ground near the tree and back away. Almost immediately, a male chimp drops to the ground and stares at the baby curiously. He carries her back to where the mother is waiting. 可知,研究人员将婴儿放在树旁的地上,然后退后。几乎同时,一只雄性黑猩猩从树上下来,好奇地盯着婴儿。他把她带回到母亲等候的地方。由此判断出当有危险时,更大的雄性黑猩猩保护其他黑猩猩,故选B。 4.主旨大意题。通读全文尤其是根据文章最后一段Pruetz still can’t believe how fortunate they were to have reunited the mother and child. “Surprising is the only word I can think of,” she says. Pruetz可知,Pruetz仍然不敢相信他们能让母亲和孩子团聚是多么的幸运。“惊喜是我唯一能想到的词,”所以短文的主旨大意是有爱心的人如何让婴儿黑猩猩和妈妈团聚。故选D。

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。

It was the first day of our new grade. Everyone in the classroom was chatting happily, excited to see each other again after the long holidays. When the door slid open, all of us stopped talking and turned to look. In came our teacher Ms. Sullivan, followed by an ordinary-looking boy,

“This boy’s name is Rafael.” Ms. Sullivan announced. “He’s a transfer student (转校生), and he’s going to be in our class starting from today. Make sure all of you welcome him warmly.”

The class clapped. But I didn't want to have a second look at the newcomer, for he had no outstanding qualities considering his small figure and casual T-shirt.

“Oh, I forgot to mention one thing.” Ms. Sullivan spoke up. “Rafael actually has hearing problems. Normally he would have hearing aids on, but his old ones have just been broken.

His doctor suggested that he stay at home until he got his new ones. However, Rafael insisted on attending his first day of school. So if you want to communicate with him, you have to write it on a piece of paper.”

This single speech sent the whole class up into an uproar (嘈杂). Some students looked at each other with expressions of surprise. Others voiced cries of concern out of pity.

Ms. Sullivan calmed everyone down. “I’d like someone to personally help him out throughout the day. Do I have any volunteers?”

“How can a disabled person be intelligent?” I thought to myself. I refused to raise my hand, expecting someone else would. But nobody did or said anything. Dead silence spread across the classroom.

It was by total bad luck that my eyes happened to meet Ms. Sullivan's.

“How about you, James?” She asked me. “Is it okay for you to take care of Rafael just for today?”

It is difficult to refuse a request by someone, especially if that person is a teacher. I sighed and nodded slightly. Ms. Sullivan gestured for Rafael to sit beside me and then asked us to share our holiday stories with the class.

Paragraph 1:

Immediately, the class became excited.
