【题目】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。
A zoo keeper had been working at a zoo for 15 years and never experienced any problems. He always worked the evening shifts (夜班) because he was trusted to properly lock up the zoo. On a warm summer night in late June, the zoo keeper turned off the lights and wished all of his animals a good night. He left the zoo and walked to his car in the parking lot. As he reached in his pocket, he realized that his keys had been left in the office. He quickly walked back to the zoo.
When he arrived at the door, to his surprise, it was unlocked. In fear of triggering (触发) the alarm that he had just set, he did not turn on the lights. He turned on the flashlight on his phone and began to make his way to the office. When he walked by the panther's (豹) cages, he saw the young cubs playing together. He liked the zoo better at this hour because at night was when the animals come to life.
At last, he made it back to the office. Unfortunately this time the office door was locked and he knew that if he were to break the window, he would set off the alarm. Knowing there was no way inside, he decided it would be best to spend the night inside the zoo. The zoo keeper walked towards the bird cages because he knew he could sleep comfortably on the benches near the cages.
A few hours later, the zoo keeper heard a door slam (砰的一声) that woke him up.
“Quiet!" a voice whispered.
“What? There's no one here, another voice said. "The old man left hours ago”
"Alright, let's just grab the animals and get out of here.”
The zoo keeper didn't know what to do. He began to weigh his options: he could trigger the alarm but that would raise questions as to why he was inside, or he could face the thieves but that could potentially put him in danger. Then he turned the corner but made sure not to be seen so that he could see who had entered the zoo.

【题目】 Bats often appear in movies and literature as frightening creatures. The animals have even been linked in some cultures to vampires, seeking to attack humans and drink the blood of them. In reality, bats are usually not harmful to people. They can do good things for people and the environment. For example, bats eat a lot of different insects that can harm our environment. They can also spread seeds.
But a serious disease is currently threatening the bat population in many parts of the United States. The disease is called white-nose syndrome. It has killed more than 6 million bats across the United States since 2007. Bats catch the disease through their skin while resting on the walls of mountain caves. Biologist Lindsay Rohrbaugh says that the disease spreads quickly and can lead to strange behavior in bats.
In Washington D. C, researchers are studying how white-nose syndrome is affecting the area's nine species of bats. Some scientists are trapping bats on an island in the middle of the Anacostia River to test for the disease. The group is receiving money to help carry out their studies.
Marco Carvello is with the Washington D. C Government's Department of Energy and Environment. "Scientists are concerned that the disease is continuing to greatly reduce the bat population. The bat deaths are affecting the quality of human life in many ways. Without bats, there is an increase of many insects. And that's only going to get worse over time if some ways can't be found," he said.
One theory is that some bats are no longer returning to caves to avoid getting, sick. This means more of them are now making their way into cities, where contact with humans is more likely Experts advise people to keep away from bats in case they have the disease. And animal control officers should safely remove the animals.
【1】According to Paragraph I people tend to think bats __________.
A.should be protected
B.can help spread seeds
C.do harm to human beings
D.may damage the environment
【2】Which of the following might Marco Carvello agree with?
A.The disease has led to people's strange behavior.
B.The-disease may cause the disappearance of bats.
C.The government should control the spread of the disease.
D.The decrease in the bat population can greatly affect humans' life.
【3】What does the author mainly tell us in the passage?
A.A bat species is decreasing in number.
B.We have found ways to protect bats.
C.A disease-causes many deaths of bats.
D.We should have a high opinion of bats.

【题目】 Roughly 8. 5 billion plastic straws are used in the United Kingdom each year, but as a new ban takes effect next April, that number will decrease to zero. One startup (初创企业) is hoping to capture the chance to make a kind of straws as an alternative by using an unlikely material: pasta (意大利面食).
“It has all the function of a plastic straw that everyone has been using,” says Maxim Gelmann, founder of Stroodles, the startup. The straws, made by an Italian company that also produces regular pasta, are the same shape and size as a standard plastic straw.
Unlike a paper straw, they don’t taste like wet paper; they don’t change the flavor of the drink. They last at least an hour, and longer in colder drinks. If you’re nursing a drink for hours and the pasta eventually softens, you can choose to eat it. The raw straw is also eatable, and Gelmann says that some people snack on them.
A handful of other pasta-straw startups also exist, though Stroodles is hoping to feature itself with a smoother, more plastic-like material and its branding.
It’s more expensive to make than a plastic straw, but at large volumes, it can compete with the cost of paper straws. Because of the coming ban, “No one really compares us with plastic anymore,” Gelmann says. “They compare us with paper straw prices, which makes my argument much easier and my expectation brighter.”
Other alternatives, like bamboo or stainless steel, are more expensive and a less elegant solution; some bars say that customers don’t trust the idea that stainless steel straws can be fully sanitized (消毒). Another option—a plastic-like eatable straw made from seaweed—may be more of a competitor.
【1】What’s the startup’s main purpose of producing the pasta straws?
A.To reduce the consumption of energy.
B.To take over the market.
C.To answer the call for the ban.
D.To compete with paper straws.
【2】What advantage do the pasta straws have compared with other straws?
A.They are cheaper.B.They can be used longer.
C.They can be treated as snacks.D.They are suitable for mass production.
【3】What attitude does Gelmann have towards the pasta straws’ future?
A.Controversial.B.Doubtful.
C.Cautious.D.Positive.
【4】What can be inferred from the text?
A.The government disagrees with Gelmann.
B.The startup will become a very big company.
C.The pasta straws face fierce competition.
D.The pasta straws can improve drinks’ flavor.

【题目】 More than half of the birds in Washington are at risk of extinction because of climate change. That's according to a new national report from the Audubon Society, which gives detailed analysis of climate effects on about 600 species of North American birds.
It's based on more than 140 million observations of birds across the US, Mexico and Canada. Audubon scientists looked at the likely effects of sea-level rise, urbanization, drought, extreme spring heat, increased fires, heavy rain and other factors.
But it doesn't just spell out a doomsday scenario (世界末日).Instead, it offers a range of effects and warming, depending on how much carbon humans add to the atmosphere.
"It is truly an existential threat (威胁), not only to birds but to people,” said Doug Santoni, board chair of Audubon Washington, who looked into the report as soon as it came out.
Santoni says he was struck to see the vulnerability (脆弱)of a common “ backyard bird" , the dark-eyed junco. It's one that many first-time birders become familiar with as they learn how to identify species based on their markings and other traits. Currently in Washington, you can count on juncos to show up at your feeder, year round. Extreme spring heat, increased fires and heavy rain are the kinds of changes that will force birds like these north, or kill them off if they fail to adapt.
Trina Bayard, director of bird conservation at Audubon’s Washington chapter, says, "It's certainly a very serious warning report," but adds that there’s still hope. “If we can stabilize current temperatures and decrease our emissions (排放), we can really reduce the effects to these birds …that's very motivating. ”
【1】What can we know about the new report?
A.It analyses the species of birds in detail.
B.It's issued by watching 600 bird species.
C.It shows the end of North American birds.
D.It reports the threat some birds are facing.
【2】What may Santoni probably agree with?
A.Climate change is a threat only to birds.
B.It's too late to take action to save the birds.
C.The current situation of the birds is worrying.
D.It's common that birds are affected by climate change.
【3】Which of the following can help these birds according to Trina?
A.Lowering present temperatures.
B.Reducing our daily emissions.
C.Making them adapt to climate change.
D.Encouraging people to protect them.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A.Climate change threatens many Washington bird species.
B.A new report about 600 species of North American birds.
C.Different attitudes towards the situation of bird species.
D.Climate change makes different kinds of species at risk.
