21、The number of giraffes is becoming smaller across Africa, according to the Giraffe Conservation Foundation. The total population has dropped by 40 percent in the last 15 years. People care little about it. Surprisingly, even scientists haven't given much attention to giraffes. "We are learning more about their ecology, but what we know is still way behind what we know about other species. It's a silent extinction (濒临灭绝)", said Dr. Julian Hennessy, a wildlife scientist.
"The main reason for the smaller number of giraffes is their loss of living places," said Hennessy, "as an increasing part of land is used for farming. But hunting also has a big influence." You might wonder why hunters like giraffes. First of all, once a giraffe is brought down, there is lots of meat with a small amount of effort. Besides, there is another thing encouraging the hunting. In Tanzania, Hennessy says, the latest word on the street is that eating giraffe meat could cure AIDS. Fresh giraffe heads and bones can be sold at prices of up to $140 per piece.
Another widespread misconception about giraffes is that they are everywhere. Look at kids' books which are full of giraffes. They are always in zoo collections. They can be seen easily, so you don't think we have to worry about them. But the truth is that they are in danger of extinction. There is a lack of right and true data.
Hennessy and other researchers are now pulling together the data needed to improve the situation of the entire giraffe species. He hopes that the world will finally start to realize how endangered these beloved animals have become.
【1】It can be inferred from the first Paragraph that.
A．giraffes are unpopular in Africa
B．the giraffe is always silent in daily life
C．Scientist don't want to learn the ecology of Africa.
D．the extinction occurs without enough attention
【2】What has caused the high price of giraffe meat in Tanzania?
A．The country's custom.
B．The illegal international trade.
C．The fun of hunting a giraffe.
D．The idea that it's a cure for AIDS.
【3】The underlined word "misconception" in Para. 3 is closest in meaning to________.
A．Protection
B．expression
C．misunderstanding
D．impression
【4】The final purpose of Hennessy's great effort is to________.
A．collect more information about giraffes
B．raise public awareness of protecting giraffes
C．prove giraffe will disappear in the next few years
D．work with the International Union for Conservation of Nature
22、 It was time for Mr. Rocco to shut up shop when I hurried into the florist’s. “Now, what is it that you want?” Mr. Rocco turned to me. “I want the most beautiful flower you have.” I replied, “And just how much do you have to pay for this most beautiful flower?” I held out a wet hand showing a quarter and dime. He nodded, and then showed me a plant on the counter “I can give you this one for 35 cents.” he said，“ Aw, gee,” I protested, “it looks like a weed!” About l 8 inches high, the plant was in a small pot covered with faded red paper.“ Now trust me, boy---I promise that tomorrow morning when you get up, you will find your most beautiful flower. ”said Mr. Rocco. I knew him to be a good honest man, so I agreed to take it.
It was almost midnight when I arrived home. Mom was seriously sick and using the front bedroom. I looked in to see if she was asleep, and then quietly tiptoed in and set the plant on the table beside her bed. I wanted her to be surprised when she woke on Mother’s Day. The next morning, I dressed and hurried downstairs. The sun was shining through kitchen window as I looked into Mom’s room. She motioned for me to come in, then glanced over at the table where the plant was. Holy mackerel! There were three big yellow trumpet-shaped blooms. It was just like Mr. Rocco said---the most beautiful flower I ever saw! When I looked at Mom, she was smiling as tears streamed down her cheeks.

23、Cimabue, the greatest painter in medieval (中世纪的) Italy, was surprised one day when he came back from his lunch break and discovered a fly was under the nose of a character he had been working on. So he reached out to touch the insect. To his surprise, he found only wet paint. Turning around, he saw that his apprentice (学徒), Giotto di Bondone, was doing everything he could to keep from laughing. Giotto had painted the fly when Cimabue was away, and it looked so real that Cimabue had been completely fooled.
Giotto was born into a poor farming family. Legend has it that one day when Cimabue was walking around the countryside, he spotted a young shepherd (牧羊人) boy. The boy was not tending his sheep. Instead, he was drawing pictures of them, and the sheep he drew were so lifelike that Cimabue stopped to ask the boy his name. The boy replied that it was Giotto, and Cimabue immediately asked him to come to Florence so that the young shepherd could learn how to paint.
In the Middle Ages, an artist not only had to concern himself with things like design and technique, but he also had to learn how to make paints. Almost all artists were men, and they began their apprenticeships at an early age. An apprentice’s job was to copy his master as exactly as he could. The unfortunate result of this imitation was a lack of new ideas.
In fact, art in the Middle Ages remained the same for hundreds of years. The people in paintings didn’t look like real people, and the symbolism of art was often so remote that it must have been difficult for viewers to connect with it on a personal level. Giotto used many techniques that were uncommon at the time to bring the paintings to life for viewers. He painted people the way he saw them, instead of the overly tall people that other artists painted. He created three-dimensional space by using perspective, something that had not been done since Roman times. Finally, he threw out parts of the symbolism associated with medieval painting.
【1】What’s the authors purpose in writing the first paragraph?
A．To indicate Giotto liked making fun of others
B．To show the fly painted by Giotto looked real.
C．To indicate Giotto drew better than Cimabue.
D．To show Cimabue disliked painting flies very much.
【2】What do we know about medieval artists?
A．Supporting themselves by making paints.
B．Lacking creativity.
C．Having a short period of apprenticeship.
D．Having an unhappy childhood.
【3】What was Giotto doing when Cimabue first met him according to legend?
A．He was taking a walk.
B．He was feeding sheep.
C．He was drawing pictures.
D．He was playing with a shepherd boy.
【4】What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?
A．Giotto’s efforts on medieval painting.
B．The competition between medieval artists.
C．The most popular forms of painting in the Middle Ages.
D．Giotto’s endeavours to change art in the Middle Ages.
