White-furred animals are in danger of dying out. Climate (天气) change is causing a fall in snow cover, leaving them exposed (暴露的), a new study suggests.

Scientists in Poland have been following the worrying case of the white-coated weasel (白鼬), which sheds (褪去) its brown covering in the winter for a milky coat in order to blend easily into its icy environment.

But researchers have discovered that between 1997 and 2007 the number of days with snow cover was from 80 to 40 in Bialowieza Forest, Poland. It means that the little animals are caught out in a completely unsuitable environment, where they can be caught by foxes and crows. Scientists found that on days when there was little winter snow cover. The number of white-coated weasels they managed to catch fell to as low as 20 percent of the total. It meant that the rest had been killed.

The problem is likely to affect other white-furred animals such as the Arctic fox when the snow cover increasingly gives way to a landscape (风景) of greens and browns.

In the near future white weasels may disappear completely from many areas of Northern Europe and America. They will either be replaced by brown ones or they will evolve (进化).

Researchers also carried out tests using toys of brown and white-coated weasels to see if the colors were actually making a difference to predators (捕食者). They found lots of animals had come near to the white toys, but none had shown interest in the brown toys.

The researchers are hopeful the animals will learn to adapt (适应), but say they cannot rule out the animals disappearing completely.

    The Chinese saying goes: Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. This is what the Seattle-based Fare Start does. Not only does the charity provide meals for the homeless but it also teaches them cooking skills that prepare them for jobs in food service.

In Seattle, 13.2% of people live below the poverty (贫穷) line since its beginning in 1999. Fare Start has grown, graduating 100 people from its adult cooking training program in 2013, 90% of whom went on to well-paid job within 90 days of graduation. 88% of those people still held their positions six months later.

At Fare Start, students begin their training with simple tasks like reading recipes (菜谱) and planning menus. Many also receive housing. In return, they are required to work. Starting with helping in the kitchen preparing meals for people, the trainees (实习生) move their way up the ranks, ending up in the kitchen of the Fare Start restaurant in downtown Seattle.

The practical skill-training and other support services allow successful graduates like Jayna. She lost her job as a nurse due to alcohol abuse. Since graduating from Fare Start, she has worked in a small house at Yellow stone National Park. She said, "I could not have put myself back together again. Fare Start did that for me."

Kevin is another success story. He found that having to show up at the same place every day kept him on track. Upon leaving Fare Start, Kevin began setting goals for his future and seeing them through—including holding down his job for almost a year.

Going forward, Fare Start plans to shift more focus to women especially women with children.

Shi came up with the idea after an unpleasant experience in which he got wet waste all over his pants while throwing it away. He found that many other people had the same problem. He decided to solve this problem and 5. (invent) his special bag.

He first thought about using a gunny (麻布) bag or placing a bag break on his trash cans. But 6. of these ideas worked. So he decided to just design his own rubbish bag. "I didn't want to put any extra burden (负担) on the bag, so I used adhesive tape." Shi said.

7., the bag he made first was a one-off product and not environmentally friendly. So Shi kept on improving his design.

    A high school history teacher once told us, "If you make one close friend in school, you will be the most lucky. A true friend is someone who stays with you for life." Experience teaches that he is right. 1.

To most of us, friendships are considered very important, but we need to make it clear in our minds what kinds of friendship we want. You may ask yourself the following questions.2. Do we want to share ourselves or do we want to walk on surface?

For some people, many friendships on the surface are quite enough and that's all right.3. It's whether or not our expectations are the same as our friends' expectations. If so, the sharing of personal experiences including our tears as well as our dark dreams is the surest way to deepen friendships.

4. The greatest is to expect too much too soon. Deep relationships take time. Another "main difficulty" is the selfishness(自我中心;任性)to think one "possesses(控制)" the other, including his time and attention. In fact, friendships require actions in return.5. Finally, there is a question of taking care of. Unless you spend reasonable time together, talking on the phone, writing letters, doing things together, friendships will die away.

A.Good friendship is just not easily formed.

B.We should understand why we need friends.

C.Are they to be close or kept at arm's length?

D.What are some of the difficulties of friendship?

E.In other words, you must give as much as you take.

F.But at some point we need to make sure one thing.

 

    They say that "travel is the best teacher" and there is no better example of this idea than the Ming dynasty travel writer and geographer Xu Xiake (1587-1641). His book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake, not only encouraged a love of travelling among Chinese people but provided important scientific information about the country's land and geography.

Born into a wealthy Jiangyin family, Xu became interested in books about different places at an early age and wanted to travel. When he was 18, however, Xu's father died and so, it seemed, did his travelling dreams. He now was responsible for the family farm and taking care of his 60-year-old mother as tradition required.

But his mother had different ideas. Understanding her son's love of travel and valuing the knowledge he could get from such experiences, this modern-thinking woman refused to keep her son at home. She agreed that Xu could travel for three months every year, when there was less farm work.

So at the age of twenty and with his mother's support, Xu set off for the first time, leaving behind not only his mother but his new wife as well. He would repeat this goodbye each year for most of the next 30 years. During this time, he travelled throughout the Ming kingdom, carefully studying the lands he passed through and recording his experiences and many discoveries in a diary. This diary, which once had over 500,000 words, would finally become The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake.

Although rich, Xu avoided comfortable travel, preferring to go almost everywhere on foot. This way he could research the environment in detail and get a true picture of the natural world. Many of his trips were to hard-to-reach mountain areas, and through wild forests where few people lived. His willingness to face hardships came at a cost however. Progress was slow and tiring and he was frequently sick, robbed and beaten during his journeys.

Sadly Xu became seriously ill during his last and longest journey, a 4-year trip through the Southwest of China. He died in 1641, soon after returning to his hometown for the last time. When his diary was finally printed years after his death, much of it had been destroyed or lost. Although incomplete, it still made Xu a travelling legend (传奇人物) around the world.

1.Which of the following best describes Xu's mother?

A.Strict but interesting. B.Supportive and open-minded.

C.Helpful and hardworking. D.Kind but uneducated.

2.Xu preferred walking during his travels because ______.

A.it gave him the chance to meet different kinds of people

B.it helped him to save money and travel for a longer time

C.it allowed him to see and study the environment in detail

D.it was the only way to reach the places he was interested in

3.What is true about Xu's book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake?

A.It was the first travel book ever written in China.

B.It made Xu very famous during his lifetime.

C.It was mainly about the different people of China.

D.It was only made public after Xu died.

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A.Xu Xiake's Life Story B.Xu Xiake's Discovery

C.Xu Xiake's Travelling Experience D.Xu Xiake's Book

5.What is the correct order for the following events from Xu's life?

a. He went on his first journey.

b. His book was finally printed.

c. He returned to his hometown for the last time.

d. He developed an interest in books about other places.

e. He started managing the family farm after his father died.

    The students have given Miss Chan the following:

Passage 1  Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

It is an interesting story about a girl named Alice, who follows the White Rabbit down a rabbit hole and finds herself in Wonderland. She not only finds the White Rabbit, but also meets other animals such as the Dormouse and the Caterpillar. During her adventure, Alice eats and drinks things that make her change in size. At last, Alice enters a garden, where she happens to see a trial (审判). The Knave of Hearts is accused (指控) of stealing the Queen of Hearts' pie, while the King of Hearts is the judge. As Alice argues with the Queen, the Queen becomes angry with Alice and orders her men to kill Alice. In the end, Alice grows to a huge size and knocks over the playing cards. Suddenly, Alice wakes from her dream.

The classic Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carroll, an English author, was fantastic. It took you to a world of fantasy. The storyline is so imaginative. Alice, with her pleasant personality is attractive. It is one of the classics needed to complete your bookshelf.

Passage 2  The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

It is an interesting story about a girl named Dorothy, who is taken away from her home in a storm and finds herself in the Land of Oz. Dorothy, together with her companions the Tin Woodman who wants a heart, the Scarecrow who wants a brain and the Cowardly Lion who wants courage, journeys in search of the wizard (巫师) in order to return home. After facing many difficulties they successfully meet the Great Oz, who in fact is not a wizard. However, the old man gives the Scarecrow a brain made of pins and needles, the Tin Woodman a heart made of silk and filled with sawdust, and the Cowardly Lion a bottle of courage. In the end, Dorothy finally gets home to where her aunt and uncle live. They are very glad to see she is safe.

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, written by L. Frank Baum, is an enjoyable American classic. What I loved most were Dorothy's friends, who were always there when Dorothy needed help. Dorothy is also loved by everyone for her sweetness and honesty. If you have not read it, why don't you give yourself a treat?

    Americans buy more bottled water than any other nation in the world. 29 billion bottles of water are drunk each year. It takes 17 million barrels of oil to make these bottles. That's enough oil to keep a million cars going for twelve months.

So why don't more people drink water from the tap in the kitchen? Some people drink bottled water because they think it is better for them than water out of the tap, but that's not true. In the United States, the government makes sure water from the tap is safe.

People love bottled water because it is convenient to take with them. But maybe if they understand the problems it makes, they will try drinking from a glass at home or carrying water in a reusable bottle instead of a plastic one. Although plastic water bottles can be turned into some other useful things, only a small number of them are reused. The rest are taken away in rubbish trucks, or even worse, they end up as rubbish on the land and in rivers, lakes, and the ocean. Plastic bottles take hundreds of years to break down.

Water is good for you, so keep drinking it. But think about how often you use plastic water bottles, and see if you can make a change. If you take one to school, don't throw it away — bring it home and put tap water in it for the next day.

1.Americans buy the most bottled water in the world.

2.The United Nations makes sure water out of the tap is safe.

3.Plastic water bottles we use cause serious pollution.

4.It takes a hundred years to make plastic water bottles break down.

5.We should use a plastic water bottle as many as possible before throwing it away.

How will we save our planet?

Which topic drew the most attention from people around the world in 2019? It was climate change, according to three well-known English dictionaries.

The Oxford, Collins and Cambridge dictionaries chose "climate emergency", "Climate strike" and "upcycling", respectively(分别地), as their "Word of the Year". This tells us that climate change was a widely-discussed issue in 2019.

"Climate emergency" means a situation in which urgent action is needed to reduce climate change. "Climate strike" refers to people leaving work or school to call for more action to protect the environment. "Upcycling" refers to making new items out of old or used items to reduce waste.

Climate change has already affected the world in many ways. Take Venice for example. Due to climate change, Venice experienced the worst flooding it has seen in the last 50 years in 2019. Many stores, restaurants and hotels were flooded. This caused serious damage totaling hundreds of millions of euros.

Although we've known about global warming for a long time, our large companies and governments have been slow to respond to it. The year 2019 might have been the turning point that will finally encourage our leaders to take responsibility.

"Decades ago, when the science on the climate issue was first increasing, the impacts(影响)could been seen as an issue for future generations," Katharine Mach, a Stanford University climate scientist, told The New York Times. "It's definitely our issue now."

However, simply realizing that climate change is a threat is not enough, we must take real action before it is too late.

1.Which dictionary didn't choose the climate word as their "Word of the Year"?

A.The Oxford. B.The Collins. C.The Webster. D.The Cambridge.

2.Which of the following words of phrases calls for making new items with old or used things?

A.Climate change. B.Climate emergency. C.Upcycling. D.Climate strike.

3.Why did Venice experience the worst flooding during past 50 years in 2019?

A.Because of heavy rain. B.Because of climate change.

C.Because of bad economy. D.Because of terrible managements.

4.According to Katharine Mach, what should we do now?

A.We should take action to fight against climate change in the future.

B.We'd better leave the climate issue to future generations.

C.We should take responsibility to deal with climate change immediately.

D.We should realize the climate change is a big threat but we can do nothing.

 

    Jordan was born with a disability. But she says her difference doesn't hold her back—it makes her amazing.

When Jordan was having a new dance class at the age of 8, she noticed that some kids were staring at her. The kids were looking at her left arm. It stops above the elbow(肘部).

Each year, about 2,000 babies in the United States are born with limb differences, like Jordan was. That means they are missing all or part of an arm or a leg. With only one hand, Jordan has a tough time doing certain activities like tying her shoes. She sometimes uses a prosthetic(假体)arm to help her ride her bike.

Jordan attended camps for kids with limb differences. Three years ago, she was a special workshop. She was challenged to design a new prosthetic arm—one that would turn her disability into a "superpower".

Jordan worked with designers. They used a 3-D printer to create a prosthetic arm shaped like a unicorn's horn(独角兽的角). "It was really cool to show that you can build onto your difference to make it awesome," says Jordan.

In 2017, Jordan and her mom formed an organization called Born Just Right. They want to help other kids with limb differences. "We want to show kids that anything is possible," Jordan says.

Sure, people still sometimes stare. But Jordan uses those moments to educate others, "Your differences are amazing and you never know what amazing things you can do with them."

1.Why were the kids staring at Jordan?

A.Because Jordan was good at dancing. B.Because Jordan only had part of the arm.

C.Because Jordan couldn't dance well. D.Because Jordan was a famous designer.

2.What does the underlined word "limb" in Paragraph 3 mean?

A.Eyes or ears. B.Noses or mouths. C.Arms or legs. D.Hair or skin.

3.Which of the following statements is CORRECT?

A.Jordan became disabled when she was eight years old.

B.Jordan invented a special prosthetic arm on her own.

C.Born Just Right is set up by Jordan and her mom.

D.There is no one staring at Jordan anymore.

4.What can we infer(推断)from the passage?

A.Jordan is proud to be different and will encourage other disabled kids.

B.Jordan never feels uncomfortable when people stare at her.

C.Jordan will have a real arm one day in the future.

D.More and more people will use 3-D printers to make prosthetic arms.

 

    Confucius, one of the most important Chinese philosophers, was celebrated across the country for his 2,570th birthday in September 2019. After all these years, his influence is still strong in modern times.

Unlike the abstract philosophy of Laozi, Confucian idea about right and wrong are ways to understand and apply to daily life. "It's all about the every day. It's all about family," Roger Ames, a Fonfucius expert at Peking University, told China Daily.

For example, many Chinese learn at an early age to "be filial to parents and respectful to brothers( 入则孝,出则悌)". Confucius believed that if everyone knows how to love their families, they will know how to love others, love their country, and love the world.

"Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you." is the favourite Confucius doctrine( 信条)of Guo Jiulin, a professor at Dalian Minzu University. "It reminds me that if a person wants to fulfill his social ambitions(抱负), he must first be strict with himself in words and deeds," he told China Daily.

Another important Confucian idea is "he", or harmony, Sun Yiting, a student from Zhejiang University, values it. "It reminds me to calm down when I get angry," she said. "It reminds me to put myself in others' shoes. This way of thinking makes my life much happier."

Confucian ideas can even be applied to today's global problems, according to Ames.

"Confucius believed that the only way I can take my stand is by helping other people take theirs(己欲立而立人,己欲达而达人). If my neighbour does better, I do better. That's the Confucian wisdom. This is really needed in the world today," said Ames.

"Global warming, food and water shortages, environmental problems, international terrorism(恐怖主义). We can solve these problems only if we work together."

1.Which of the following is the picture of Confucius?

A. B. C. D.

2.We will celebrate Confucius's ________ birthday in 2022.

A.2,570th B.2,571st C.2,572nd D.2,573rd

3.Which of the following ideas is NOT from Confucius?

A.If everyone knows how to love their families, they will know how to love others.

B.If a person wants to fulfill his social ambitions, he must first be strict with himself.

C.We should put ourselves in others' shoes to make our lives much happier.

D.If we want to stand, we should stand with our neighbours or our friends.

4.The best title for the passage is "________".
