26、Visiting animals in their natural homes may sound like a great idea that helps to save them, but is it ?
Researchers writing in Trends in Ecology ＆ Evolution on Oct9 said that the interactions between wild animals and friendly eco-tourists who want to take their pictures may put animals at greater risk of being eaten.
It is clear that many people visit protected areas every year. “Recent data showed that protected areas around the globe have 8 billion visitors per year; that’s like each human on Earth visited a protected area once a year, and then some!”said Dainel Blumstein of the University of California, Los Anglels. “This amount of nature tourism and eco-tourism can be added to the long list of ways in which humans cause fast environmental change.
The basic idea of the report the report is that humans change the ways animals act and those changes might affect other parts of their lives, according to Science Daily. Those changes in behavior and activity may put animals at risk.
“When animals spend time in ‘harmless’ ways with humans, they may let down their guard,” Blumstein said. As animals get used to feeling comfortable with humans, they may become braver in other situations, he says . “If this bravery continues when they meet real predators（捕食者）， then they will die more often when they meet them.”
Eco-tourism is in some ways similar to making animals live in human homes or in cities. In all three cases, regular interactions between people and animals tame. Evidence has shown that silver foxes that live with people become more laid-back and less fearful; this results from evolutionary changes but also from spending time with humans. Simply put , as Blumstein asked in the Scientific American magazine:“Does eco-tourism make animals dumb?”
And that’s not all - humans can also scare away natural predators , creating the so-called “human shield effect” and a safe environment for smaller animals that might make them braver, too. When humans are around, for example, vervet monkeys don’t see as many leopards (猎豹) trying to eat them.
Blumstein says they hope to do more research into humans’ interactions with wildlife. Scientists will “now have to understand better how different species and species in different situations react to humans and when humans might put them at risk.
【1】The main focus of report in Trends in Ecology ＆ Evolution was the idea that ______.
A. eco-tourism cause damage to the natural homes of wildlife.
B. it is easy for eco-tourists to build up trust with wide animals.
C. the changes brought by eco-tourism may be harmful.
D. protected areas around the world are overloaded with tourists.
【2】The underlined word “dumb” in paragraph 6 probably means ________.
A. anxious B. active C. curious D. stupid
【3】The author uses vervet monkeys as an example to show that ________.
A. different species react to humans in different ways.
B. the presence of humans reduces the threat from predators
C. smaller animals tend to be braver in front of predators.
D. interactions with humans make animals more relaxed and less fearful.
【4】We can infer that the writer wrote this passage mainly to .
A．explain what eco-tourism is
B．tell us something interesting about Nature
C．suggest that we stop eating meat to save animals
D．Wildlife tourism may seem helpful, but it can be deadly for some animals
27、It was called as a huge step forward. Two American astronauts--Anne McClain and Christina Koch, were scheduled on March 29 by the Canadian Space Agency to lead the first all-female spacewalk.
However, due to McClain requesting a change in her spacesuit size less than a week ago, only Koch spacewalked with a male colleague on the 29th. Together, they upgraded the batteries for the International Space Station’s solar power system. McClain spacewalked on April 7 for the second time, having done so already on March 22.
A spacewalk is when an astronaut leaves their vehicle and goes out in space. Astronauts wear one of eleven spacesuits on the ISS, each of which costs $22 million! The spacesuits provide oxygen, water, and two key safety parts. These include small jet thrusters(推进器)to allow astronauts to move around in space, and safety tethers(栓)that keep their tools and them from floating into forgetfulness. It is very important that spacesuits fit the astronauts perfectly.
A spacewalk isn’t all fun and games. When astronauts risk into black space, even the most small tear or pieces can lead to a terrible leak in the spacesuit. If astronauts put on their weighty 330-pound suit too quickly before heading outside, the rapid change in air pressure could cause nitrogen gas bubbles to enlarge in their blood vessels. This could cause severe pain to even death. And the worst of all: The safety tether could break and strand the astronaut in space. Astronauts must remain cautious while on complex spacewalks: the scenery may be amazing, but no one wants to be stuck above the Earth forever!
Regardless, Koch and McClain are important figures since less than eleven percent of the people who have gone to space are women. These spacewalkers are inspiring girls around the world. Hopefully, there will even be more women in action in the future!
【1】Why did McClain fail to spacewalk with Koch?
A．Her spacesuit didn’t fit her.
B．She made a request in her partner.
C．The solar power system of ISS didn’t work.
D．The battery for her spacewalk needs upgrading.
【2】What does the underlined word “them” refer to in the third paragraph?
A．Spacesuits.
B．Astronauts.
C．Safety tethers.
D．The tools.
【3】What is implied in the fourth paragraph?
A．Spacewalk is an unusual experience.
B．It is remarkable to have a spacewalk.
C．Spacewalk can be dangerous.
D．Spacewalk is a chance to enjoy the scenery.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A．Spacewalking Is More than Fun
B．Women Astronauts Are Remarkable
C．Astronauts Dream to Do Spacewalking
D．Women Make History with a Spacewalk
28、Living Well with Others
A good life is one that is beneficial to living well with others, while living comfortably and honestly. However, not everyone can deal with the relationship well with others. They’re looking to explore new ways to make their life better. 【1】
Smile at those around you. It’s often been said that a smile is catching. 【2】 Studies suggest that friendly engagement (交往) with others improves happiness levels, at least in part. People are more likely to treat a smiling person better than a non-smiling person.
Help others. Studies have shown that helping others has a direct relation to individual happiness. 【3】 Volunteering to help others has been connected to better quality of life.
【4】 The golden rule is still the most important rule for getting along with others. Think of how you would like your friends to act around you. If you treat people with love and respect, they will treat you with the same.
Value your friendships with others. The quality of a person’s friendship has a direct effect upon their well-being. Friends can increase a sense of your sense of belonging and purpose. 【5】
A．Research suggests that’s true.
B．Treat others how you wish to be treated.
C．Treat others with honesty, respect and kindness.
D．When meeting someone for the first time, smile to them.
E．They will also help prevent you from developing bad habits.
F．This article will cover some ideas you may want to consider.

Wind whistled round the corner of the house, thunder rolled and rain beat against the windows — not a night to be outside but rather to sit by the fire. Thanks to the solid walls and roof overhead, I could imagine Dr. Frankenstein's frightening creation wandering on such a night. I was alone, my husband away and the nearest neighbor a quarter miles down the road. Alone, that is, except for Lassie, a hairy, black and white dog, who sat with her head on my lap, her intelligent, brown eyes gazing up at me as if to say, don't worry, we'll be all right.
Through the years she was with us, she proved time and time again to be a superb judge of character. We never knew if it was a result of her sense of smell or sound-but, whatever it was, she definitely possessed a talent we humans lacked. On first meeting she would either wag the tip of her tail a couple of times to indicate that the visitor was acceptable, or slightly curl her top lip, exposing her sharp teeth which told you to be alert. Always accurate, her gift was never more obvious than on this night.
The doorbell rang. I decided not to answer it. It rang again, much longer this time. Whoever was there was not going away. Still I hesitated. On the fourth ring, with Lassie by my side, I finally answered the door. My heart beat fast and my mouth went dry, for there, stood the monster himself. A twisted body under a heavy overcoat, one shoulder bumped higher than the other and his head leaned slightly forward and to one side.
“May I use your phone?” The voice came from somewhere back in his throat and, although the request was polite, his tone was rude.
Reaching in his pocket and producing a piece of paper, he handed it to me. I refused to take it. Believing he might try and force his way in, I looked at Lassie to see if she was ready to defend the home.
Surprisingly, she sat by my side, the tip of her tail wagging.
