A

From the jagged (锯齿状的) peaks of the Himalayas to the powerful Yangtze River that flows into the Pacific, China’s vast terrain (地带) and varied climate make it the sixth most biologically diverse nation on the planet.

Since 1998, The Nature Conservancy has been working in China’s northwest Yunnan Province to protect some of the amazing natural and cultural diversity unique to this country for its future generations. In cooperation with Chinese local and state government agencies, the Conservancy established the Yunnan Great Rivers Project, which protects an area about the size of West Virginia.

Did you know?

●China contains 10% of the world’s total species.

●At least 15% of China’s mammal species and 8% of its bird species are found nowhere else on Earth.

●Nearly 15,000 plant species are native to Yunnan Province.

●Yunnan is home to 75% of Tibetan medicinal herbs and 30 endangered species.

What is the Nature Conservancy trying to do?

Education for Sustainability (可持续性)

The Nature Conservancy recognizes that environmental education is an important element of working closely with local communities to achieve sustainable conservation results. In response, the Conservancy launched a new program called Education for Sustainability which tests means of teaching and learning that combine conservation goals, social justice, and appropriate development and participation in a vision and mission for personal and social change.

Promoting Green Tourism

Tourism is both an environmental threat and an economic opportunity, with the potential to provide extremely needed income to northwest Yunnan. The Conservancy is working with local communities, government agencies, and tourism enterprises(企业) to develop strategies for “green” tourism which will limit the footprint of mass tourism while generating income for local people. In addition to combining tourism development and management at our five action sites, we assisted with regional marketing efforts to promote eco-tourism opportunities.

For many people around the world, a subway journey means speeding from one dull station to the next,surrounded by too many uncomfortable, impatient people. But on the Moscow Metro, taking the subway is like walking through a national heritage site. Depending on where you get off,you'll receive a brief course in architectural movements and face colorful glass windows, marble(大理石)columns, gilded (鎏金的)mosaics and painted scenes from Russian history.

“These extraordinarily beautiful places are unlike any metro station I've ever seen," says Vancouver-based photographer David Burdeny.

When Burdeny, who himself has a master's degree in architecture, first found out about Moscow’s metro stations, he was struck by the work of art. In all, he has photographed 20 of the most beautiful stations.

Burdeny had originally planned to focus on Russian stations more generally, taking photos of examples in both St. Petersburg and Moscow.

“But when I saw the stations in Moscow, they just completely blew away the St. Petersburg ones,"he says.

Shooting in the subway sounds simple, but it is not without challenges. For one thing, Burdeny had to figure out a way to access them between 12:30 a.m. and 5:30 a.m., when the stations were closed.

In the end, he settled on Arbatskaya Metro Station, whose vaulted (拱顶的) arches he found the most beautiful. But it also represented a challenge he was not sure he was able to overcome: conveying the hugeness of the spaces. The Arbatskaya platform, for example, stretches 820 feet.“Some of the arches are quite long,” he says. “When you enter them, they' re just so completely grand."

1. We can learn from the text that David Burdeny_.

A. is a world-famous architect

B. is studying Russian history

C. took the subway to and from work

D. took photos of Moscow subway stations

2.What Burdeny found challenging was __.

A. when to take photos of Moscow subway stations

B. whether to work in St. Petersburg or Moscow

C. how to photograph the long arches at Arbatskaya Station

D. where to get off to study the Moscow metro system

3.What does the underlined word “shooting” mean in Paragraph 6?

A. Firing bullets from a gun.

B. Taking photographs.

C. Making movies.

D. Throwing the ball at the basket.

I was with a group of businessmen, and we were dealing with a question — What is a good person?

At a certain point during the discussion, one of the students, a young man of about 30 described an event that happened at Christmas. He and his five-year-old son were decorating the Christmas tree, and a little boy came to the front door begging. If you ever visit Mexico, you will see that the people there take begging as nothing to get upset about and nothing to get embarrassed by.

So, this little boy came to the door, a boy about the same age as my student’s son. The father and the son went to the front door, and the father went back with his five-year-old son and said to him,“Give him one of your toys.” At the words, the little boy quickly picked up one toy, and his father said to him, “No, no, give him your favorite toy.”

And the little boy, like a little tiger, said, “No way!” He cried; he refused. But the father, like a big tiger in a way, insisted gently, “No, you must give him one of your favorite toys.”

And finally the boy, with his head down, picked up a toy he had just gotten. The father waited in the living room, and the boy walked to the front door with the toy in his hand. The father waited and waited.

What do you think happened?

After a couple of minutes, his son came running back into the living room, his face lighted up.

“Daddy,” he said, “can I do that again?”

I think I have got the answer to the question.

1.From the passage, we can learn that in Mexico ________.

A. begging is looked down upon

B. begging is considered as a normal part of life

C. visitors all over the world treat beggars kindly

D. few people are living a poor life

2.The sentence “Daddy, can I do that again?” showed that the boy ________.

A. got pleasure by helping the little beggar

B. wanted to please his father

C. began to like the little beggar

D. wanted to be the little beggar’s friend

3.According to the writer, “being a good person” means ________.

A. being ready to give

B. being friendly to beggars

C. having the courage to correct his/her mistakes

D. being able to teach children to tell right from wrong

Life’s coincidences (巧合) can be good or bad, but they always surprise us. I moved to Anderson in 2004 from a small town in New York. One day I stopped at a red light and was behind a car with a license plate that read “Pearl Harbor Survivor”. My father was a Pearl Harbor survivor, so I jumped out of my truck and tapped to his window. He rolled the window down and I asked if he was a Pearl Harbor survivor.

“Yes,” he said. The lights turned green so I got back in my truck, turned left and went home straight. Then, I said to myself, “Why didn’t I get his name and phone number?” I went to the local Legion Post and asked if there was a Pearl Harbor survivor here on their roster (花名册). They told me yes and his name was Bronsil Metz. I looked up his name in the phone book and gave him a call. However, I failed to reach him anyway. I then drove to his address. With no answer to the door, I left a note saying that I would like to speak with him.

The next day Metz called me back and we arranged to meet at his house. I gathered my father’s picture albums and drove to his house the next morning. My father passed away years ago, so I was filled with excitement about talking to someone with similar experiences. We two went through the albums. As I turned the pages, he started pointing out the people he knew as well as those familiar buildings. My father was a great record keeper, so after Metz named people in some pictures, I took the photos out and on the back, in my father’s handwriting, were the names, substantiating that Metz did really know the people. At that moment, I was stunned (愣住) .

1. When the author saw the “Pearl Harbor Survivor” license plate, _________.

A. he was driving on the expressway

B. he was trapped in a traffic jam

C. he was waiting for the lights to turn

D. he was looking for a new friend

2.What can we infer from the second paragraph?

A. The Pearl Harbor survivor hurried home.

B. The author disliked talking with strangers.

C. The Pearl Harbor survivor refused to give his phone number.

D. The author regretted for not asking for the survivor’s contact information.

3. The underlined word “substantiating”inParagraph 3 probably means _________.

A. arguing B. denying

C. confirming D. doubting

4.Which of the following is NOT true according to the text?

A. The author met Bronsil Metz in a small town in New York.

B. The author was surprised to find a Pearl Harbor survivor.

C. The information of some retired soldiers can be found in Legion Post.
