26、 Teenagers are risk-takers. Those things may not be understood by the adults around them. Are they driven by poor judgment or immature (不成熟的)brains?
In their book Wildhood, the bestselling authors Barbara Natterson-Horowitz and Kathryn Bowers, present findings from their five-year study on wild animal adolescence(青春期). The two performed a complete survey of age-related death in wild animals and found something truly surprising—young folks are born to take risks, and with good reasons.
Life on Earth for adolescent and young adult animals is just as dangerous. In the wild young animals crash, drown and starve more often than their adult animals. And they are more likely to be targeted and killed by predators (捕食者).Old enough to be away from home? But new to the ways of the world? This time of life is risky for human adolescents as well. Wildlife biologists describe these unprepared creatures as predator naives(幼稚).
Facing death danger while still maturing is a fact of life for adolescents across species. Adolescents must have predator awareness if they are to survive. Said another way: To become safe, you must take risks.
Adult bats typically flee predators such as barn owls. But adolescent bats have been seen doing the opposite —flying toward them. This behavior can also be seen in other wild animals. Biologists call it “predator inspection(检查)”. Predator inspection provides young animals important information about their deadly predators. Familiarity with predatory strategies helps adolescents survive and even avoid future attacks. Predator inspection is one of the ways to help predator naives to become experienced predators.
Studying wild animal adolescence offers a new understanding of why teenagers act the way they do. Parents should balance the urge to protect with the need to let their teenagers test their wings. The research suggests that adolescents need some exposure to the dangers they will someday face on their own —and without knowing that, parents’ over protection maybe the riskiest behavior of all.
【1】What do we know about predator naives?
A．They die of hunger.
B．They are inexperienced.
C．They are born to hate risks.
D．They like living in the wild.
【2】How can adolescents survive according to paragraph 4?
A．By keeping away from dangers.
B．By experiencing various dangers.
C．By approaching other companions .
D．By learning security experience from elders.
【3】What benefit can adolescent animals get from predator inspection?
A．They don’t have to avoid dangers.
B．They don’t have to fight for food.
C．They can learn about their predators.
D．They can understand the value of life.
【4】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．Refusing parents’ protection benefits teenagers.
B．Parents should take risks with their teenagers.
C．Studying wild animal adolescence benefits human parenting.
D．Parents should avoid leaving their teenagers exposed to dangers.
27、“Did you hear what happened to Adam last Friday?” Lindsey whispers to Tori. With her eyes shining, Tori brags, “You bet I did，Sean told me two days ago. ”
Who are Lindsey and Tori talking about? It just happened to be yours truly, Adam Freedman. I can tell you that what they are saying is(a)not nice and(b)not even true. Still, Lindsey and Tori aren’t very different from most students here at Linton High School, including me. Many of our conversations are gossip(闲话). I have noticed three effects of gossip: it can hurt people, it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction, and it can cause social pressures in a group.
An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about. Usually, gossip spreads information about a topic—breakups, trouble at home, even dropping out–that a person would rather keep secret. The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is，the juicier the gossip it makes. Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie. People often think of gossipers as harmless, but cruel lies can cause pain.
If we know that gossip can be harmful, then why do so many of us do it? The answer lies in another effect of gossip: the satisfaction it gives us. Sharing the latest rumor(传言)can make a person feel important because he or she knows something that others don’t. Similarly, hearing the latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the “in group”. In other words, gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority(优越感).
The effects of gossip vary depending on the situation. The next time you feel the urge to spread the latest news, think about why you want to gossip and what effects your “juicy story” might have.
【1】Why is a conversation given at the beginning of the passage?
A．To introduce a topic.
B．To present an argument.
C．To tell a story.
D．To clarify the writing purpose.
【2】What important negative effect does gossip have?
A．Breaking up relationships.
B．Embarrassing the listener.
C．Causing unpleasant experiences.
D．Spreading information around.
【3】Why do many people like to gossip?
A．It gives them a feeling of pleasure.
B．It helps them make more friends.
C．It makes them better at telling stories.
D．It enables them to meet important people.
28、Soon enough, we will lose some of the most amazing sites on Earth!
The Great Barrier Reef
Rising air temperatures will cause sea temperatures to rise as well.All life supported by the oceans will be affected with this shock to their ecosystem.Coral are some of the most vulnerable marine animals and we are already watching whole reefs disappear.The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is no exception and will continue to shrink as the temperatures rise！These reefs are some of the best in the world for diving, but they will soon disappear!
Venice
Sprawling across(横跨)hundreds of small islands in Northeast Italy，Venice is at extreme risk of sinking into the Adriatic Sea.Rising sea levels are in fact a serious threat to many coastal cities located at sea level.Lucky for us，however，Venice is developing a series of sea walls to protect the city in times of high tide.
Glacier(冰川)National Park
Glacier National Park was once covered by over 150 glaciers, but by 2005 it only had about 27！Located in Montana, Canada, this park is over a million acres and has a huge plant and wildlife population.As temperatures rise, the glaciers and ice melt, which will upset the ecosystems sustaining over a thousand plant species and hundreds of animals.
The Amazon
The cause behind the disappearance of these fantastic places ultimately comes down to humans.Our expansion usually requires cutting down forests for land, fuel and materials，but rarely considers the consequences.These forests are sources of food and medicine for just about everyone on the planet!
What will happen if we lose these valuable places and beautiful destinations？！
【1】According to the text，what is causing coral's death?

29、About 18,000 refugees (难民) from Burma have come to the United States each year since 2007. Some have settled in Howard County, Maryland between Baltimore and Washington. A local school began teaching English to the children of the refugees. But while the children learned the language, their parents did not. That made communication with teachers arduous.
At present, almost fifty children from Burma attend Bollman Bridge Elementary School. Laurel Conran is a teacher there. She said, “The main idea is the global idea.” She teaches English to speakers of other languages. One of her students is Tha Neih Ciang. Another student is Tha Neih’s mother, Tin Iang. Ms. Conran practices English with Tin Iang at the mother’s workplace. Many refugees from Burma work at Coastal Sunbelt Produce, a supplier of fruits and vegetables to restaurants and other businesses.
Laurel Conran started classes at the company to help refugees from Burma learn English. Laurel Conran said, “The program is a six-week session. It’s once a week, on every Wednesday, from twelve to one o’clock. So every Wednesday I go to Coastal Sunbelt.” As the workers eat lunch, they also practice their new language skills.
Lisa Chertok has a child at Bollman Bridge. She is also a manager at Coastal Sunbelt. She helped Ms. Conran develop the lessons, which she says have really helped. Lisa Chertok said, “Well, when the Burmese employees got here, they were very, very shy. Now I find that they are more outspoken than before. They’re more communicative. As parents, they are also more involved in their children’s school.”
Jonathan Davis is the headmaster of Bollman Bridge Elementary School. Mr. Davis hopes the lessons will help these parents feel better about communicating with the school. He said, “Even as simple as making a phone call to say that their son or daughter is sick, even if that’s the amount of English that they have got from the program, that truly will help us.”
【1】What does the underlined word “arduous” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Interesting. B. Necessary.
C. Difficult. D. Surprising.
【2】When the refugees from Burma first arrived in Howard County, .
A. neither the children nor the parents could speak English
B. the parents liked communicating with the teachers
C. the parents could help their children speak English
D. the children could speak very good English

B. She worked at Coastal Sunbelt Produce before being a teacher.
C. She teaches not only English but also other languages.
D. She often goes to the refugees’ company to teach them English.
【4】Jonathan Davis hopes that the lessons will .

I was fat kid who grew into an overweight adult. I was _______laughed at for being heavier than the other kids, _______ me feeling shy. I tried several diets, but _______worked, and I _______gaining weight. Another factor _______ my weight gain was my love for cooking, especially rich, high-fat desserts, which I enjoyed preparing and, of course, eating.
When I finished high school at the age of 18, I weighed 215 pounds. _______ the self-confidence to go to a new, faraway school, I decided to stay close to home instead of going away to college.

My turning point came 10 years later at a friend’s New Year’s Eve party when I was at my all-time highest weight of 330 pounds. I caught my _______ in a mirror and the truth hit me: I was overweight and unhealthy, and unless I did something about it now, I would only get bigger and _______.
After leaving the party, I thought about my past weight-loss _______ and realized they didn't work because they required me to abandon foods I loved. Then I would constantly think about food and binge, ________ the diet satisfy my hunger and not feel deprived.
My biggest ________ was finding a way to fit my passion for cooking into my healthier lifestyle. At first, I tried to stay away from the kitchen to prevent myself thinking about food. The result: Food was all I thought about. ________ had to be some way to combine cooking with healthful eating. I found the ________after reading several low-fat cookbooks. With some trial and error, I could modify my favorite foods and make them low in fat, yet delicious.
The pounds started coming off, and when I started exercising (usually cardio and weight training five times a week), they seemed to melt away. I didn’t feel deprived, and I felt free to give my body the care and attention it ________.
I lost 165 pounds over the next two years. I had many ups and downs. I was determined to go on.
