    For 40 years, people in London have been happy to see parakeets (马尾鹦鹉) in their parks. The shocking green body and long tail have brought a bright color to the parks, which have attracted a lot of people.

    However, the parakeets are no longer welcome. They will push out local birds from trees to build their own nests, and will also take most of the food in the parks, such as seeds, fruit and nuts.

    Sometimes by accident, plants and animals are carried to new places. They are transported by trains, ships or even planes. Often, animals like fishes get transported in the water containers of ships. When these ships reach new places and pump out the water from their tanks, these animals will start a new life in a new place.

    Sometimes people take plants and animals from one part of the world to the other to solve a problem. But it will create a bigger problem. Years ago, the farmers of northern Australia brought the toads (蟾蜍) from South America to their farms. They thought they would kill the beetles that harm the sugarcane crops. But the toad has done much more. It is now killing Australia’s native animals, such as snakes, water birds and so on.

    1.People get interested in parakeets mainly because of ____.

    A. their appearance B. their singing

    C. their behavior D. their living environment

    2.How do the parakeets affect the local birds?

    A. They sometimes kill the local birds.

    B. They destroy trees which the local birds live in.

    C. They take the local birds’ nests and food.

    D. They have attracted much of people’s attention.

    3.What is the third paragraph mainly talking about?

    A. How animals and plants come to new lands.

    B. How a new animal affects the local animals.

    C. Why some plants are introduced to a new place.

    D. The role of ships in transporting animals and plants.

    4.What can we learn about the toads?

    A. They didn’t kill the beetles at all.

    B. They were brought to Australia by accident.

    C. They have ruined the sugarcane crops.

    D. They have created a larger problem in Australia.

    The Taj Mahal (泰姬陵) is a love story, a sad and beautiful one. If it didn’t exist, we would easily imagine that the story of its construction was simply a fairy tale. Three hundred years ago, there lived an Indian emperor called Shah Jahan. His wife was a beautiful and bright woman whom he loved greatly. Her title was Mumtazl Mahan: its shortened form Taj Mahal, means “pride of the palace”. In the year 1630 this beloved wife of the emperor died. He was so brokenhearted that he thought of giving up his throne(皇位). Out of his love for his wife, he decided to build her the most beautiful tomb that had ever been seen.

    He summoned（召集）the best artists and architects from India, Turkey, Persia and Arabia and finally, the design was complete. It took more than twenty thousand men working over a period of 18 years to build the Taj Mahal, one of the most beautiful buildings in the world.

    The building itself stands on a marble platform 29 meters square and 6-7 meters high. Towers rise from each of the four corners. The Taj itself soars another 61 meters into the air. It is an eight-sided building made of white marble.

    The emperor planned to build an identical tomb of black marble for himself on the other side of the river connected by a silver bridge. However his son put him into a prison in the palace before he could finish, and for the rest of his life, he could only gaze across river at the tomb of his beloved wife.

    1. The whole passage tells us about ______.

    A. a beautiful fairy tale

    B. the story of the Taj Mahal

    C. white and black marble tombs made for two emperors

    D. the love story of Emperor Shah Jahan and his wife

    2.Which of the following statements is NOT true about the Taj Mahal?

    A. It was completed quickly owing to the efforts of the best artists and workers.

    B. A lot of people took part in the building work

    C. It is a magnificent building.

    D. It is a tomb for the emperor’s beloved wife.

    3.The emperor’s own tomb was designed to be ____________.

    A. 61 meters high B. eight-sided

    C. black-colored D. white-colored

    4.The emperor _____________.

    A. died soon after Taj Mahal died

    B. was killed by his son

    C. was beloved by his people

    D. died after 1648

    概要写作

    阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

    With global warming and melting ice, it isn’t easy being a polar bear anymore. Some studies have predicted that polar bears could die out by the end of the century. The good news is not all researchers think the bears are absolutely disappearing. Scientists at the American Museum of Natural History(AMNH) have published a new paper indicating that things might not be as bad for polar bears as some scientists expect.

    To understand the reason for the researchers’ cautious optimism, we must first understand the factors that are threatening the polar bear’s existence. Polar bears consume a diet of mainly young seals. In order to hunt these seals, polar bears need to rest at the top of sea ice---the same ice that is increasingly melting for most of the year thanks to climate change. In another 50 years, experts expect that the Arctic will be too warm for sea ice to form for half of the year, leaving polar bears without a reliable food source and in serious danger of starvation.

    As it turns out, alternative food sources for the polar bears aren’t completely out of the question. For as long as biologists have tailed after the animals, they’ve seen polar bears eating animals found on land like caribou(驯鹿) and snow geese---as well as the snow geese’s eggs.

    Can polar bears actually survive off these alternative food sources for long periods of time? To figure this out, researchers calculated the nutrients that a caribou and snow geese diet would provide. They found that even adult male polar bears would be able to obtain more calories than they would burn in hunting these meals. Moreover, the food would provide the food necessary to avoid starvation during the summer months.

    Unfortunately, not all polar bears have tended to seek food on land. That said, the researchers expect that necessity would push more polar bears to hunt on land to avoid starvation. They also expect that the bears could learn from their fellow bears how to hunt on land until the practice becomes second nature.
