“He’ll 17 around in circles and look at you. If you sit down, he’ll 18 with you. If you are outside, he will come up to you and smell your leg. He’s a lot more 19 ,” said Fulstone. “For the quakes, he was very alert (警觉的) and 20 barking and doing his run-around movements.”
Scientists have 21 that animals sense bad 22 because of changes in barometric pressure (气压) or other factors and dogs have low blood sugar or other medical 23 because of hormonal (荷尔蒙的) changes.

Gilbert 32 all animals are born with a sixth sense, and they’re more likely to 33 it if they have strong feelings with their 34 . Otherwise, “Humans will think they have a 35 dog or an unhelpful dog,” he said.

It was very cold and I had been watching a homeless man make himself comfortable in a “shelter”(住所) next to the river bank. He had been living there for over a month. During the period, I passed by and I never saw him with warm clothing or food. But that day, I knew what I wanted to do.
I was young, living at home, and when I told my parents what I wanted to do they were alarmed. I could be putting myself at risk, taking a box to a homeless person in the night! But I knew that I would be safe.
I went to the store, got an apple box and filled the box with some things he needed. Then I put a Christmas card on the top of the things. It said, “Even though we hardly know each other, I wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas!” I put ten one-dollar bills inside as well.
My father insisted he accompany (陪伴) me to the area as it was 10:00 pm on Christmas Eve. I said he could drive me but he had to stay in the car. He agreed.
I took the box, which by now was heavy with all those gifts and walked towards his “shelter”. I called out to him, “Sir, I have a Christmas box for you!”
He walked towards me and I was surprised by two of the most beautiful, gentle, and blue eyes.
“Why are you doing this, boy?” he asked.

New Zealand is one of the most famous tourism destinations in the world. Travelers traveling to New Zealand need to consider the following things:
Bookings
Since most of the activities are done in a group like arranging hotels and meals, it is important that people travel as a group. They can enjoy special offers and discounts from the travel agencies, which will save them a lot of money. But individual travelers can’t enjoy those things. Travelers should also select their dates of starting and book their travels ahead of time.
Seasons
Travelers should also find out the season that New Zealand is now experiencing. This will help them carry the right clothing for the given season during their travels. Travelers traveling during summer should carry light clothes and their swimming suits if they are to enjoy the sunny beaches in New Zealand. But those traveling in winter should carry heavy clothing including hats and boots.
The rental (租赁)
Travel agencies have rental houses, bikes and motorcycles for tourists wishing to enjoy these services. For travelers wishing to get car rental, they must have driving licenses and must be allowed by the New Zealand government.
The culture
People traveling to the country are also encouraged to learn the culture of the people of New Zealand. This will enable them to be freely accepted into the country by the locals since they will be doing many things that they will consider acceptable. Learning the local language and the culture will help the tourist enjoy his New Zealand visit.

About six years ago my husband and a co-worker drove to see the sister company to the business my husband was running in Edmonton and then decided to drive to see the co-worker’s family.
This co-worker is one of 17 children. These people live in an average house without TV. I admire anyone who has taken the time to raise their children in the old-fashioned way where the children entertain themselves and each other. This really touched my husband. Not only did these people still have the majority of their family at home but they had taken on two foster children (收养的孩子).
Over the two days my husband felt worried about these two little girls. When my husband returned home, he said, “Andrea, I have something I need to talk to you about.” He told me about these little girls and how he really wanted to adopt them.
At that time I had a 4-year-old, a 2-year-old and a 1-year-old child. I understood what he wanted to do but I had to take our children into consideration. His biggest concern was that these two little girls would be split up (分开).
Time moved on and the years passed. These two little girls came into our thoughts often. Did we do the right thing or not? This question was asked too frequently.
As the years passed this co-worker left the company and eventually, so did my husband. Just over a year ago my husband had a meeting with one of the sales managers for the sister company. My husband met with this gentleman over dinner one night. I am not sure how these little girls came into the conversation, but my husband must have been telling this gentleman about his trip. During that dinner I received a phone call from my husband. He wanted to introduce this gentleman to me over the phone. I talked for a few minutes. I was really puzzled.
This gentleman and his wife had adopted the two girls we were looking to adopt years before. They were not able to have children and had so much love to give. The girls are where they belong. We get information frequently and have been sent pictures of what the girls look like now. There is a higher being who looks after us, you know!

DOHA (AFP) – The destruction of natural habitats in Europe is wiping out butterfly, beetle and dragonfly species across the region, the updated European “Red List” of endangered species showed Tuesday.
Scientists examining Europe’s 435 butterfly species found that the populations of one in three species are falling and nine percent are already threatened with extinction.
“Most butterflies at risk are in southern Europe,” said Annabelle Cuttelod, coordinator of the European Red List at the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
“Their main threat is habitat loss, most often caused by changes in agricultural practices, either through intensification (强化)or abandonment, or to climate change, forest fires and the expansion of tourism.”
Logging has led to a decline in the population of some beetle species that depend on decaying wood. Known as saproxylic(食腐) beetles, they play an important role in ecosystems (生态) by recycling nutrients.
Some 11 percent or 46 species of them are at risk of being lost from the region, while seven percent are threatened with extinction worldwide.
“The main long-term threats to saproxylic beetles are habitat loss due to logging and the decline in the number of mature trees,” said the IUCN.
For dragonflies, it is the overuse of freshwater resources that is causing these species to drop in numbers.
Five percent of dragonfly species are threatened with global extinction, while some 11 percent are considered to be threatened within Europe.
“Increasingly hot and dry summers combined with overuse of water for drinking and irrigation are causing the dragonflies’ wetland habitats to dry up,” said the IUCN.
51. What is the main cause of habitat loss of butterflies in Europe?
A. Changes in agricultural practices. B. Climate change.
C. Environmental pollution. D. The expansion of tourism.
52. The main threat facing the dragonflies is _______.
A. cutting down trees
B. the decreased number of mature trees
C. the lack of fresh water resources D. the hot and dry weather
53. Saproxylic beetles can _______.
A. improve ecosystems B. do harm to ecosystems
C. be the food of other insects D. get nutrients from soil
54. How many species of beetles feeding on decaying wood are threatened with extinction worldwide?
A. About 11. B. About 15. C. About 25. D. About 29.
55. We may learn from the passage that _______.
A. 11 percent of the dragonflies in Europe won’t be found outside Europe
B. dragonfly species are well protected in other parts of the world
C. wildlife is generally well protected in Europe
D. the disappearance of natural habitats is largely due to human activities

第一节 阅读表达 (共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)
[1] Looking to improve your language skills, but you don’t have the time to go overseas to attend school? More and more universities around the world are offering opportunities for students to get degrees online (distance education) from the comfort of their own homes, and many of these institutions are accredited, meaning that they have met certain standards of excellence.
[2] If you decide to take language courses online, be sure to compare the benefits of studying online with those of going abroad. The advantages of studying online are that the costs are usually lower, you can study at your own pace, and you have access to the materials 24-hours-a-day from almost any computer in the world. However, you won’t get the human interaction(相互作用) of meeting people face to face like you would if you were physically attending a school overseas.
[3] On the other hand, _______________________ may include day-to-day opportunities to learn a new culture, meet new friends with whom you can use and practice the language, and chances to see different parts of the world. However, there may be a number of disadvantages for some including expense, time away from one’s school, family, or work life, and the challenge of adapting to a new culture and way of life.
[4] Whatever you do, consider a distance education program that meets your educational needs and is within your budget(预算). And equally important, it provides you with opportunities to grow beyond the classroom through cultural and educational activities.
56. List three disadvantages of attending a school by going overseas. (no more than 20 words)

The mobile phone newspaper, a source to help people keep up with the world, has become more and more popular.
The mobile phone newspaper offers fast access to the news. And it only takes up space on the cell phone which is easy to carry. Better still, it is environment-friendly. No trees are required to make paper for the pages of the newspaper. However, some people dislike it because it offers less information than the traditional newspaper. Sometimes it bothers readers too much by having to turn pages quite often.
Everything has both sides. And you can choose what you like.
