In the 1980s,electrical lines and lead poisoning (铅中毒) nearly drove them to dying out. Now,electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.‎ In the late 1980s,the last few condors were taken from the wild to be bred (繁殖).Since 1992,there have been multiple reintroductions to the wild,and there are now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona,Utah and Baja in Mexico.‎ Electrical lines have been killing them off.“As they go in to rest for the night,they just don't see the power lines,”says Bruce Rideout of San Diego Zoo. Their wings can bridge the gap between lines,resulting in electrocution (电死) if they touch two lines at once.‎ So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles,placed in large training areas,teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but un-deadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced,66% of set-free birds died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%.‎ Lead poisoning has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead bodies of other animals containing lead,they absorb large quantities of lead. This affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds,and can lead to kidney (肾) failure and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo,where they are treated with calcium EDTA,a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days. This work is starting to pay off. The annual death rate for adult condors has dropped from 38% in 2000 to 5.4% in 2011.‎ Rideout's team thinks that the California condors' average survival time in the wild is now just under eight years.“Although these measures are not effective forever,they are vital for now,” he says.“They are truly good birds that are worth every effort we put into recovering them.”‎ ‎21.California condors attract researchers' interest because they ________.‎ A.are active at night B.had to be bred in the wild C.are found only in California D.almost died out in the 1980s ‎22.Researchers have found electrical lines are ________.‎ A.blocking condors' journey home B.big killers of California condors C.rest places for condors at night D.used to keep condors away ‎23.According to Paragraph 5,lead poisoning ________.‎ A.makes condors too nervous to fly B.has little effect on condors' kidneys C.can hardly be gotten rid of from condors' blood D.makes it difficult for condors to produce baby birds ‎24.This passage shows that ________.‎ A.the average survival time of condors is satisfactory B.Rideout's research interest lies in electric engineering C.the efforts to protect condors have brought good results D.researchers have found the final answers to the problem B Grandparents Answer a Call As a third-generation native of Brownsville,Texas,Mildred Garza never planned to move away. Even when her daughter and son asked her to move to San Antonio to help with their children,she politely refused. Only after a year of friendly discussion did Ms Garza finally say yes. That was four years ago. Today all three generations regard the move as a success,giving them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities.‎ No statistics show the number of grandparents like Garza who are moving closer to the children and grandchildren. Yet there is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing. Even President Obama's mother-in-law,Marian Robinson,has agreed to leave Chicago and move into the White House to help care for her granddaughters. According to a study of grandparents,83 percent of the people said Mrs. Robinson's decision will influence grandparents in the American family. Two-thirds believe more families will follow the example of Obama's family.‎ ‎“In the 1960s we were all a little wild and couldn't get away from home far enough or fast enough to prove we could do it on our own,”says Christine Crosby,publisher of Grand,a magazine for grandparents.“We now realize how important family is and how important it is to be near them,especially when you're raising children.”‎ Moving is not for everyone. Almost every grandparent wants to be with his or her grandchildren and is willing to make sacrifices,but sometimes it is wiser to say no and visit frequently instead. Having your grandchildren far away is hard,especially knowing your adult child is struggling,but giving up the life you know may be harder.‎ ‎25.Why was Garza's move a success?‎ A.It strengthened her family ties.‎ B.It improved her living conditions.‎ C.It enabled her to make more friends.‎ D.It helped her know more new places.‎ ‎26.What was the reaction of the public to Mrs. Robinson's decision?‎ A.17% expressed their support for it.‎ B.Few people responded sympathetically.‎ C.83% believed it had a bad influence.‎ D.The majority thought it was a trend.‎ ‎27.What did Crosby say about people in the 1960s?‎ A.They were unsure of themselves.‎ B.They were eager to raise more children.‎ C.They wanted to live away from their parents.‎ D.They had little respect for their grandparents.‎ ‎28.What does the author suggest the grandparents do in the last paragraph?‎ A.Make decisions in the best interests of their own.‎ B.Ask their children to pay more visits to them.‎ C.Sacrifice for their struggling children.‎ D.Get to know themselves better.‎ C More students than ever before are taking a gap year (间隔年) before going to university. It used to be called the “year off” between school and university. The gap-year phenomenon originated (起源) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.‎ This year,25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year,according to statistics on university entrance provided by the University and College Admissions Service (UCAS).‎ That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony Higgins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education.“Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with,and complete,their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,”he said.‎ But not everyone is happy. Owain James,the president of the National Union of Students (NUS),argued that the increase is evidence of student hardship—young people are being forced into earning money before finishing their education.“New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university up to £15,000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree. NUS statistics show that over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacation periods,”he said.‎ ‎29.What do we learn about the gap year from the text?‎ A.It is flexible in length.‎ B.It is a time for relaxation.‎ C.It is increasingly popular.‎ D.It is required by universities.‎ ‎30.According to Tony Higgins,students taking a gap year ________.‎ A.are better prepared for college studies B.know a lot more about their future jobs C.are more likely to leave university in debt D.have a better chance to enter top universities ‎31.How does Owain James feel about the gap-year phenomenon?‎ A.He's puzzled. B.He's worried.‎ C.He's surprised. D.He's annoyed.‎ D A team of British surgeons has carried out Gaza's (加沙) first organ transplant for a long-term plan to train local medical staff to perform the operations.‎ Two patients underwent kidney (肾脏) transplants at the Shifa,Gaza's biggest public hospital. The operations were conducted a fortnight ago by a volunteer medical team from the Royal Liverpool hospital.‎ Ziad Matouk,42,was born with one kidney and was diagnosed with renal failure (肾衰竭) several years ago. Matouk,whose wife donated one of her kidneys,hopes to return to his job within six months. The couple had sought a transplant in Cairo,but were rejected as unsuitable at a state hospital and could not afford the fee at a private hospital.“We were desperate,” said ‎ Matouk.‎ The UK-Gaza link-up began about a year ago after Abdelkader Hammad,a doctor at the Royal Liverpool hospital,was contacted by an anaesthetist (麻醉师) at the Shifa,who outlined the difficulties the Gaza hospital was facing with dialysis (透析).The Shifa is forced to rely on generators because of power cuts; spare parts for its aging dialysis machines have been difficult to import; and supplies of consumables are often scarce. After an exploratory trip last April,Hammad,whose family is Palestinian,and three colleagues from Liverpool arrived in Gaza via Egypt last month,bringing specialist equipment. Two patients were selected for surgery. The first,Mohammed Duhair,42,received a kidney donated by his younger brother in a six-hour operation. Two days later,Matouk received a transplant after his wife,Nadia,36,was found to be a good match. The surgery was carried out by the British team,assisted by doctors and nurses from the Shifa.”We are very satisfied with the results,“said Sobbi Skaik,head of surgery at the Gaza hospital.‎ Skaik hopes that Gaza medical teams will eventually carry out kidney transplants independently,and that other organ transplants may follow. The Shifa is working with the Gaza ministry of health on a plan to train its doctors,surgeons,nursing staff and laboratory technicians in transplant surgery at the Royal Liverpool.“Funding is a problem,”said Hammad.“In the meantime we'll go back as volunteers to Gaza for the next couple of years to do more transplants.”The Liverpool team's next visit is scheduled for May.‎ ‎32.What effect does Gaza's first organ transplant hope to get?‎ A.Helping poor Gaza people to regain health to make more money.‎ B.Releasing Gaza hospitals' pressure of lack of professional doctors.‎ C.Assisting the Royal Liverpool hospital in perfecting their operations.‎ D.Calling for international attention at Gaza's poor medical service.‎ ‎33.Why did the state hospital refuse to practice surgery for Ziad Matouk?‎ A.Because he couldn't afford the fee at a public hospital.‎ B.Because the hospital didn't accept dangerous patients.‎ C.Because they couldn't find a matched organ.‎ D.Because his condition was untreatable.‎ ‎34.What is the beginning of the cooperation between the Royal Liverpool hospital and Gaza?‎ A.A UK doctor contacted Gaza hospital.‎ B.The Shifa imported medical machines from the UK.‎ C.Ziad Matouk's condition seemed to get worse.‎ D.A Shifa doctor turned to Royal Liverpool hospital for help.‎ ‎35.What did Dr Hammad and his team do recently?‎ A.They had an exploratory trip in Egypt last April.‎ B.They carried out surgeries to test Gaza's medical equipment.‎ C.They carried out two transplant surgeries in Gaza.‎ D.They sought assistance from the hospital of the Shifa.‎ 第二节:阅读短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。每小题只有一 个最佳选项, 选项中有两项是多余选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)‎ We say yes for many reasons.
