Ⅱ.阅读理解
(2013·济南3月模拟)
The National Park Service in the United States will mark its one hundredth anniversary in 2016. As it nears its second century, the Park Service plans to increase its educational programs for students and teachers.
The plans include transportation support for one hundred thousand students each year to visit national parks to learn about nature and history. Yellowstone is believed to have been the world's first national park when it was established in 1872. Other students will get a chance to see parks in faraway places through Skype and other online programs.
The National Park Service also works with partners to provide education. One of its partners is a nonprofit organization called NatureBridge. NatureBridge is celebrating its fortieth anniversary and says one million young people have taken part in its programs. The organization works with students from kindergarten through twelfth grade and uses national parks as its classrooms. It provides field science programs at Yosemite National Park and four other locations in California and the northwestern state of Washington.
Now, NatureBridge is launching an East Coast center with a fourmilliondollar grant from Google. The program will begin in April at the Prince William Forest Park in Virginia. Students stay for three to five days in NatureBridge programs. The activities are aimed at developing their science skills. For example, they learn about different soils and study water quality under a microscope. Jason Morris, executive vice president of NatureBridge says when they are not sleeping, eating or in a laboratory, the students spend their time outdoors.
Julia Washburn is associate director of education and interpretation for the National Park Service. She says in a time of budget cuts, the agency has to find ways to still meet its goals. And one of the most important services that the Park Service provides every day is nature interpretation.

Nature's cheats
Mary is digging in the ground for a potato, when along comes John. Seeing that there is no one in sight, John starts to scream. John's angry mother rushes over and drives Mary away. Once his mum has gone, John helps himself to Mary's potato.
We've all experienced similar annoying tricks when we were young—the brother who stole your ball and then got you into trouble by telling your parents you had hit him. But Mary and John are not humans. They're African baboons (狒狒). __1__
John's scream and his mother's attack on Mary could have been a matter of chance, but John was later seen playing the same tricks on others. __2__
Studying behavior like this is complicated, but scientists discovered apes (猿) clearly showed that they intended to cheat and knew when they themselves had been cheated. __3__ An ape was annoying him, so he tricked her into going away by pretending he had seen something interesting. When she found nothing, she “walked back, hit me over the head with her hand and ignored me for the rest of the day.”
Another way to decide whether an animal's behavior is deliberate is to look for actions that are not normal for that animal. A zoo worker describes how an ape dealt with an enemy. “He slowly stole up behind the other ape, walking on tiptoe. When he got close to his enemy, he pushed him violently in the back, then ran indoors.” Wild apes do not normally walk on tiptoe.
__4__ But looking at the many cases of deliberate trickery in apes, it is impossible to explain them all as simple copying.
It seems that trickery does play an important part in ape societies. __5__ Studying the intelligence of our closest relative could be the way to understand the development of human intelligence.
A.In most cases the animal probably doesn't know it is cheating.
B.An amusing example of this comes from a psychologist working in Tanzania.
C.And playing tricks is as much a part of monkey behavior as it is of human behavior.
D.So the psychologists asked his colleagues if they had noticed this kind of trickery.
E.The ability of animals to cheat may be a better measure of their intelligence than their use of tools.
F.This use of a third individual to achieve a goal is only one of the many tricks commonly used by baboons.
G.Of course it's possible that it could have learnt from humans that such behavior works, without understanding why.

A:Not much. I had to pay an__7__(expect) bill, so I needed the money back.
B:Well, talk to him about it next time you see him. He probably feels__8__bad about it as you do. Close friends sometimes have disagreements. It's nothing unusual. Neither of you said anything really nasty, did you?

答案:
Dear Miss Clinton,
I am very sorry that I will not be able to attend the lecture tomorrow afternoon,
which is on American culture.
My mother is ill, and I will take her to hospital tomorrow since my father is on a business trip. I will take care of my mother until she is better, so I have to ask for several days' leave. I am very interested in the topic of American culture. It is really a pity that I miss it. I wonder if there will be any recording of the lecture. If so, I can listen to it when it is convenient.
Thank you very much.
Yours,
Li Hua
