Postmen are all too used to keeping an eye out for the threat of dogs. But in a seaside town in North Wales, they have been forced to take cover from an unexpected threat seagulls. They have complained that the birds have become so terrifying that deliveries to some streets have been suspended. Yesterday citizens of Abergele agreed the seagulls were fearless but said they were angry at losing their daily post.
Roberts, who works as a safety adviser, lives where the attacks have taken place. “Last week, we noticed we hadn’t got any mail for what we thought was a week, but it’s hard to tell because you don’t always know if you’re due any mail,” she said. “We put something on Facebook asking if anyone else had not had their post. . . One of my Facebook friends said a postman had refused to deliver because of the seagulls. ”
Royal Mail said that deliveries had been interrupted because of the postman experiencing attacks by seagulls as he delivered mail on his round there over the past few weeks, adding that the postman got people’s mail through whenever it was safe.
“We know that these kinds of attacks do happen at this time of year across the country as they are nesting,’’ she said. Royal Mail apologized to the customers affected and promised to continue to monitor the situation every day, but in the meantime some are having to travel to neighboring Royal to collect mail from the delivery office there.

For environmental reasons, Britain will ban all new petrol and diesel-powered vehicles from its roads beginning in 23 years, a government report says.
The plan, Expected Wednesday, aims to start removing petrol and diesel(柴油) engines in 2040. It follows a similar official statement in France and comes after the British government was ordered by the High Court to develop new plans to reduce NO2 in the air. Judges ruled that previous clean-air plans were not enough to meet European Union pollution limits in the coming years.
Britain’s government has said the poor air quality has an unnecessary and avoidable negative effect on citizens’ health, and costs up to $ 3.5 billion in annual lost productivity.
Part of the new plan involves an offer of $ 260 million to local governments to change rules where vehicle emissions(排放) are over EU standards. Ideas so far include changing road layouts(布局), reprogramming traffic lights and charging a fee for the oldest and most polluting cars on the road.
The plan also includes $1.3 billion for government purchase of extreme-low-emission vehicles, nearly $ 130 million to improve infrastructure for electric vehicle charging stations and $ 378 million for remodeling existing vehicles.
Climate change is also a reason for the plan to get these vehicles off the road. “We can’t carry on with petrol and diesel cars,” Environment Secretary Michael Gove said. “It’s important we all prepare for a significant change which deals not just with the problems of health caused by emissions, but the broader problems caused in terms of accelerating climate change.”
Gove added that local communities are partly responsible for coming up with ways to limit emissions, including possible limitations on commuters(上下班往返者) and the addition of cleaner mass transportation options. Local leaders are called on to draw up “appropriate plans” to deal with climate challenges related to emission, he said.
8. Why does the British government decide on this ban?
A. To focus on its citizens’ health. B. To promote solar energy in transport.
C. To respond to the High Court’s request. D. To follow in France’s footsteps.
9. Which measure may the British government take to achieve its plan?
A. Replacing traffic lights. B. Changing the way roads are arranged.
C. Spending some money on electric vehicles. D. Removing old and high-emission vehicles.
10. What can be inferred from Gove’s words?
A. Convenient public transportation is badly needed.
B. Petrol and diesel cars may hold back economic progress.
C. Vehicle emissions are the key factor in climate change.
D. United efforts are required to achieve the plan.
11. What is the suitable title for this passage?
A. Practical ways to reduce vehicle emissions
B. Britain plans to take petrol and diesel engines off roads
C. The EU forces Britain to improve the poor air quality
D. Relationship between vehicle emissions and climate change
D
Feeling tired? Under too much stress? Well, you may want to try Yoga(瑜珈). It’s what more and more people have been turning to to release the trouble of modern life. Practically unheard of
in the West until 50 years ago, Yoga has become one of the most popular health trends around the world, including China. If you search for Yoga on line in Chinese, lots of pages are there to see, most of which are main pages of Yoga clubs. In order to keep fit and lose weight, many girls spend more than 1000 yuan taking part in Yoga classes every month.
However, are you really ready for it? There are several things you need to know before you really take it.
First, do not force your body too much. Yoga has many difficult poses. They are beautiful and worth boasting if you could finish them. But if you force yourself to do as exactly as an experienced Yoga teacher does, you may hurt your body, instead of strengthening it. Do you remember you original purpose for playing Yoga? It is self -building, not competing.
Second, do some research about the Yoga class that you are to register. Yoga is new in China and there are not so many certificated well-trained Yoga teachers. Some not well organized clubs just find someone learn a little Yoga and certificate them. But be aware, a non-eligible teacher might wrongly guide you and you could not benefit from the classes much except that they force you to exercise your body a bit. Considering about the large amount of money you invest in it, it’s worth and reasonable to make sure the teachers in the club are qualified before you join.
Third, it would be better to learn something about nutrition when you practice Yoga. In the very beginning, Yoga was part of the Vedas, bible of the traditional Indian philosophy. So it could be regarded as a kind of lifestyle. When you have decided to care for your body, why not feed it properly? In fact, good clubs have their own nutritionists.
Anyhow, make sure you are ready before you act. The fashion may change quickly. But what benefits is still good for us.
12. The author’s main purpose in writing the passage is to _______.
A. tell people how to relax themselves
B. let people know more about Yoga
C. tell peoples Yoga has gained its popularity in China
D. give people some advice on taking part in Yoga classes
13. The word “eligible” in the fourth paragraph most probably means .
A. qualified B. experienced C. honored D. hi-technical
14. Which of the following is NOT the author’s advice?
A. Don’t easily follow the fashion about Yoga. B. Join one of the noblest Yoga clubs.
C. Know some knowledge about nutrition. D. Find out a real teacher.
15. From the advice offered by the author, we can conclude that ______.
A. Yoga has nothing to do with culture
B. Yoga is somehow easy to exercise
C. not all the Yoga clubs have standard teachers
D. many people learn Yoga in order to compete
