26、Canada has reintroduced some bisons (北美野牛) to the country’s oldest national park in Banff, Alberta, officials said on Monday, more than 130 years after the North American animal last appeared on the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rockies.
The protection team moved a group of 16 bisons into enclosed grassland in Banff National Park in the west of the province last week. The group will stay under observation in the Panther Valley until next summer, when the animals will be released into the full 1,189 sq km reintroduction zone in the park’s eastern valleys.
Parks Canada said bisons were once main grazers (plant-eaters) and that bringing them back would recover their missing role in Banffs ecosystem. “This would be one of only four bison groups in North America that would be fully interacting with their predators (meat-eaters) and shaping the ecosystem as they did over a hundred years ago,” said Karsten Heuer, the bison reintroduction project manager. Those predators will include wolves and bears native to the park.
Ten pregnant female bisons and six young bulls were disease-tested before being driven 400 km across Alberta by truck. Since the Panther Valley is not easy to reach by road, officials attached the containers by a long line to a plane and flew them in one at a time for the last 25 km.
Vast bison groups of up to 30 million animals once lived freely across North America. The animal was nearly hunted to extinction, and park keepers estimate bisons have not grazed in Banff National Park since before it was set up in 1885.
【1】Why did the protection team move bisons into enclosed grassland?
A．To observe them.
B．To protect them.
C．To cure diseases.
D．To change their habits.
【2】Why did Canada reintroduce bisons to Banff National Park?
A．To reshape Banff’s ecosystem.
B．To help the bison population expand.
C．To make the oldest national park worth visiting
D．To recover their predators’ role in the ecosystem.
【3】What’s the main reason for the great decrease of bisons?
A．Deadly diseases.
B．Cruel hunting.
C．Natural predators.
D．Worsened ecology.
【4】What is the author’s purpose of writing the text?
A．To show how to protect bisons.
B．To describe the living condition of bisons.
C．To explain how to transport bisons to Banff.
D．To inform readers of bisons returning to Banff.
27、As you walk around the UK in March, you might notice that some people are wearing a daffodil (水仙花) on their coats. The British wear these yellow flowers to show they support one of this country’s best-known charities: Marie Curie.
Marie Curie tries to ensure everyone who has cancer is cared for in the best possible way. It also helps fun d research into possible cures. Founded in 1948, it has been continuing with its goal ever since.
The charity was named after Marie Curie, a famous scientist. She experimented with newly-discovered elements to create the theory of radioactivity (放射性). Unfortunately, over-exposure to the radioactive elements made her develop a disease and die in 1934. Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize in two different fields. Because of her pioneering work, the charity decided on the name of Marie Curie.
The daffodil is one of the first plants to flower during spring in the UK, which marks the return of flowering plants to the ecosystem after winter. Because of this, the charity uses the daffodil as a symbol, hoping cancer patients could recover from sickness.
Everyone you see wearing a daffodil has contributed to the charity, but each daffodil is worth only what you want to pay for it. The charity does ask that you stick to a minimum amount of £1.
The charity encourages people to start wearing their daffodils at the start of March, when the “Great Daffodil Appeal” kicks off. But that doesn’t mean you can only wear them in March. People are sometimes seen walking around with daffodils on their clothes all year round.
【1】Why do some British people wear a daffodil?
A．To advocate a charity.
B．To celebrate patients’ recovery.
C．To remember a scientist.
D．To offer hope to cancer patients.
【2】What makes the charity use the name of Marie Curie?
A．Marie Curie’s support for the charity.
B．Marie Curie’s achievement in cancer treatment.
C．Marie Curie’s study on radioactivity.
D．Marie Curie’s concern over cancer patients.
【3】What does the daffodil imply according to the charity?
A．Bringing life to other people.
B．Returning of flowering plants.
C．Contributing money to the charity.
D．Encouraging patients to cheer up.
【4】What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A．A change in a British custom.
B．The effect of a campaign.
C．A special activity held in March.
D．The time to wear daffodils.
28、Fear is something we all experience, especially when setting out on any new undertaking. Failure is one of the most common and most damaging fears that many people struggle with. 【1】. You can take a close look at your fear of failure and then work with it to shape your future success. Let’s learn how to move past your fear and to ward your goals.
【2】 . When people are mastering a skill or project, failure is a necessary part of the learning process. Embracing failure as a learning experience allows you to see it as a gift, not a punishment or sign of weakness.
Re-evaluate your approach. Often times, when a result doesn’t match our expectations, we are likely to mark the attempt as a failure. 【3】 . However, if we view our results as more or less effective, with the aim of improvement, we are able to always make positive changes. Studies show that people who are successful usually don’t encounter fewer or more setbacks than people who aren’t. The key is entirely in how you interpret those setbacks. Don’t let them convince you that success is impossible.
Take things slow. Rushing into new ventures without any personal preparation can make things worse. 【4】 . Don’t push too far outside your comfort zone all at once.
Be kind to yourself. Don’t mock your fears; they are there for a reason. Work with your fears. 【5】. The more you learn about why you have these fears and what causes them, the better you can work with them.
A．This is “all or nothing” thinking
B．Learn what doesn’t work or does
C．Recognize failures as learning experiences
D．Try to find steps towards your goals directly
E．Merely avoiding the feeling of fear is not likely
F．Work through your fear or failure at your own pace
G．Treat yourself sympathetically and with understanding
29、European Day of Languages falls on 26 September. BBC News Online reported the attitudes across several European Union countries to languages.
Tamsin Smith, Rome, Italy
Italians place very high importance on learning languages, particularly English. Twenty years ago it was quite difficult to find an English speaker here but today it is quite easy. The strong influence of American and English culture helps young people to learn the English language. They often become familiar with it through “Harry Potter” books or Disney movies. English schools, where Italian children are taught all their lessons in English, are also becoming popular among rich Italians.
Lucien Libert, Paris, France
Languages are very important in France. A good knowledge of the English language is necessary for many Frenchmen to get a good job and the more languages you can learn, the better. English is the first language you learn in school and you start very young. Most people have at least eight years of learning English at school. Learning German or Spanish comes next and Latin is also taught in most schools. While French people learn languages, there is also a movement to protect the French language.
James Helm, Dublin, Ireland
The English language predominates(占优势) in Ireland, but the ancient Irish language is a lasting source of pride and interest, and it remains a living tongue that is used in several areas. School are required to teach ancient Irish, and most students learn it as part of the subjects. There is a continuing discussion about how to protect the language best. In recent years some primary schools have introduced foreign language classes for younger students, and the Irish government has tried to encourage schools to offer more languages such as French, Spanish, German and Italian.
