21、In order to live in the wild, tigers need water to drink, animals to hunt, and plants in which to hide. As the mountains, jungles, forests, and long grasses that have long been home to tigers disappear, so do tigers. Agricultural expansion, new roads, and industrial expansion push tigers into smaller and smaller areas of land. Without wilderness, the wild tiger will not survive.
Asia’s explosive population growth demands that more and more land be changed to agriculture. Indonesia, for example, has the same population as the United States, but only ten per cent of the land area. Almost all of Indonesia’s lowland forest has been cleared for rice planting.
In India, where there are about 60 per cent of the world’s wild tigers, the human population has grown by 50 per cent in the past 20 years. Over the past 40 years, China’s population, the largest in the world, has more than doubled and 99 per cent of China’s original forest habitat has been destroyed.
Tigers compete with humans and industry for land. Local people hunt the same prey (猎物) as tigers do, making tigers to turn to domestic animals and, even humans. Threatened villagers often poison, or shoot the encroaching (侵犯) tigers. In addition to food, local communities also need to use the surrounding areas of forest for livestock grazing (放牧) and wood for fuel.
To protect tigers from hunting and the rapidly increasing loss of land, wildlife conservationists (自然资源保护者) have worked with governments to establish wildlife reserves. Reserves are protected areas ranging in size from China’s Xioaling at 21 km2 to Indonesia’s Kerinci Seblat at 14,846 km2.
【1】Why does the author mention Indonesia?
A．To tell us Indonesia has a large population.

D．To tell us its rice planting is of great importance.
【2】Where do most of the world’s wild tigers live?
A．In the USA.
B．In Indonesia.
C．In China.
D．In India.
【3】What made tigers kill domestic animals?
A．Finding less to eat.
B．Cutting down wood.
C．Industry’s development.
D．Human’s illegal hunting.
【4】What’s the best title for the text?
A．Tiger Habitat Loss
B．Humans and Tigers
C．Importance of Reserves
D．Importance of Tiger Protection
22、 It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest man would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver’s seat is another matter.
Road politeness is not only good manners, but a good sense. It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behavior of politeness is anything but enough. Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.
However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. A typical example is the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.
An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in a traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings. Unfortunately, modern drivers can’t even learn to drive, let alone master the roadmanship(公路驾车技能). Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take(互谅互让)from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.
【1】The passage mainly talks about _________.
A.traffic jams B.good manners C.road politeness D.modern drivers
【2】Troubles on the road are often caused by _________.
A.traffic jams B.the behavior of the drivers
C.the great speed of modern life D.terrible road conditions
【3】What does the underlined word “anything but” in the second paragraph mean?
A.in no way B.by coincidence C.in particular D.in effect
【4】It is not always right for drivers to _________.
A.master the roadmanship
B.neglect politeness when they see it
C.give a friendly nod in answer to an act of politeness
D.encourage old ladies to cross the road whenever and wherever they want to
23、When you underline and add notes to a text, when you ask yourself questions about its contents, you are establishing your understanding of what you are reading. 【1】. A summary is a record or account of main points of a text. It forces a reader to understand the general idea of a piece rather than to just scan through each word and sentence written.
To summarize is to condense （压缩）a text to its main points and to do so in your own words. To include every detail is neither necessary nor desirable. 【2】— the main idea and its necessary supporting points, which in the original passage may have been mixed with less important material.
【3】. They are not the same thing. An analysis is a discussion of ideas, techniques, and/or meaning in a text. A summary, on the other hand, does not require you to respond to the ideas in a text.
If a text is organized in a linear (线性的) fashion, you may be able to write a summary simply by writing the major points in your words from the beginning of the text to the end. However, you should not assume that this will always be the case. 【4】. They may not state the thesis or main idea immediately at the beginning, but rather build up to it slowly, and they may introduce a point of development in one place and then return to it later in the text. 【5】.
A．They are not shortened texts
B．Different writers give different ideas
C．Not all writers use such a straightforward structure
D．Instead, you should only cover the most important information
E．In these cases, you should reconstruct the text in an organized way
F．Many students make the mistake of confusing summary with analysis
G．When you write a summary, you are showing your understanding of it
24、 How often do you read a newspaper? About 10 million people read every day in the UK. The most popular newspapers are the tabloids(小报), which are full of celebrity(名人) news and how did these papers get their stories?
Simple! Some have been breaking the law! They’ve been doing this by hacking into people’s mobile phones and stealing private information. Police found out about this back in 2005. At the time, reporters working on The News of The World were accused of hacking the phones of the royal family and other famous people.
But it soon became clear that other celebrities were also victims. They include author J.K. Rowling, actor Hugh Grant and actress Sienna Miller. As a result of the scandal(丑闻), Murdoch(the owner of The News of The World) was forced to close down The News of The World, and David Cameron(the former British Prime Minister) announced that there would be an inquiry(调查) into the press.
Lord Justice Leveson(a leading English judge) was appointed to lead the inquiry. On opening the first session Leveson said, “The press provides an essential check on all aspects of public life. That’s why any failure within the media affects all of us. At the heart of this inquiry, therefore may be one simple question: who guards the guardians?” The inquiry is focusing on three major areas: the relationship between the press and 1. ...the public. 2. ...the police. 3. ...politics.
The big question is, what changes are going to be made as a result of the inquiry? Defenders of freedom of the press are worried that journalists won’t be allowed to investigate freely, and that new laws will be introduced to limit what they can and can’t do. At present, journalists often use undercover techniques to get a story, especially if it’s in the public interest.
【1】How do the tabloids get news about celebrities?
A.They all have to break the law to get the private news.
B.Some use illegal ways to get private information.
C.They get celebrities’ private information by phoning.
D.They steal private information by using a mobile phone.
【2】What is Leveson’s attitude to the press?
A.He has pity on the press.
B.He is against the press.
C.He will punish the press.
D.He will be good to the press.
【3】What does the underlined word refer to in the fourth paragraph?
A.Lord Justice. B.The press. C.The common people. D.The police.
【4】What is the best title of the article?
A.Journalists in trouble. B.The law in trouble.
C.Celebrities in trouble. D.Lord Justice in trouble.
