Cheetahs are in trouble now.     According to the study, more than half of the world's surviving cheetahs live in one zone that covers six countries in southern Africa. Cheetahs in Asia have nearly died out. It's thought that only fewer than 50 cheetahs live in Iran.     The cheetah runs across lands far outside protected areas. Some 77% of their habitat falls outside these protected areas. As a result, the cheetah struggles because these lands are increasingly being developed by farmers and the cheetah's food is decreasing because of human hunting.     In Zimbabwe, the cheetah population has fallen from around 1,200 to just 170 in 16 years, with the main cause being major changes in land ownership.     Researchers say that the threats cheetahs are facing have gone unnoticed for far too long. "Given the nature of the cheetah, it has been difficult to gather information on them, "said Dr Sarah Durant, the report's lead author. "Our findings show that the large space requirements for cheetahs and various threats faced by them in the wild mean that they are likely to be in danger of dying out. "     Another big concern about cheetahs has been the illegal trafficking (非法交易) of young cheetahs. The young cats can fetch up to $10,000 on the black market. Some 1,200 young cheetahs are known to have been trafficked out of Africa over the past 10 years but ‎ around 85% of them died during the journey.     If the cheetahs are to survive, then immediate efforts must be made.‎ ‎24.Where do most of cheetahs live now?‎ A. In Asia. B. In Africa. C. In Europe. D. In America.‎ ‎25.What is the main factor that is threatening cheetahs?‎ A. Serious illnesses. B. Poor health. C. Climate change. D. Human activities.‎ ‎26.What has happened to young cheetahs?‎ A. Their population has increased in Zimbabwe. B. They are getting along very well with people. C. Many of them are sold on the black market. D. They have survived longer than before.‎ ‎27.What's the best title for the text?‎ A. Cheetahs are dying out. B. Cheetahs' protected areas. C. The nature of the cheetah. D. Cheetahs mostly live in Africa.‎ C In an effort to discourage people from using plastics，scientists have been hard at work inventing alternative packaging products． The idea of using seaweed（海草） to make eco-friendly water bottles has been around for a few years．Recently，Ari Jonsson took his invention-a water bottle made from red seaweed-to show off at a festival．The bottles will only hold their shape as long as they are filled．As soon as these bottles are empty they will begin to break down，though they would be perfectly safe to eat．Ari Jonsson's bottles are a step closer to a widely used alternative to the current plastic ones． The eatable water container is not the only product to add to our image of the future．Narayana Pessapaty has also created eatable spoons．After the success of his spoons，Mr．Pessapaty is ready to expand and introduce forks and chopsticks to his ‎ menu．His aim is to largely reduce the amount of plastic waste，which is a huge problem for waste sites all over the world，It is a product that may take up t0 500 years to break down，and recycling companies worldwide are struggling to deal with it． Aside from the obvious benefits to the environment，this new packaging is also cheap to produce and therefore cheap to buy．Even better is the fact that similar eatable cutlery can be made at home，possibly a science project for children or just fun with friends．Why not experiment and create your own recipes？‎ ‎28.Why do scientists invent alternative packaging products？ ______ ‎ A. To make people's life more convenient．‎ B. To show off their inventive talents． C. To change the way we picnic outside．‎ D.

It's unsafe for individuals to invent eatable cutlery at home．‎ D ‎    Climate change, global warming, the greenhouse effect … these days nobody denies that there is something strange and worrying happening to the atmosphere. Scientists are puzzled by the rise in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. They are afraid that the world may be a short way from what they refer to as uncontrolled global warming.     At Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii, meteorologists (气象专家) have been carefully monitoring the amount of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere for the past 50 years. Until recently, there has been a gradual increase of around 1.5 parts per million (ppm). In 2013 the figure rose to 2.08 ppm and in the following year they registered an increase of 2.54 ppm.     Climate analysts feel that it is too soon to draw conclusions about the phenomenon although the public are concerned that the carbon dioxide emissions are getting out of control. Jason Samenow, the chief meteorologist in the American National Weather Service, thinks that instead of having decades to find a solution to the problem, people might have only a few years. He believes that the Earth's natural systems for absorbing the gas are breaking down resulting in the uncontrolled green house effect. He insists that this is something that could happen if the Earth's temperatures rose to such a degree that it was unable to contain the heat.     One interesting aspect of this climate change is that it is not happening in a uniform way around the world. Carbon dioxide levels in the South Pole are noticeably lower. This suggests that something has happened in the northern hemisphere that set off the rise. Forest fires in North America might hold the answer to the puzzle, along with very hot summers in Europe.     The 2014 heat wave was certainly out of the ordinary. Statistics claim that more than 30,000 people lost their lives as a direct result of the high temperatures. Scientists are being cautious in their interpretations. Most feel that it is too soon to say that a new trend has been set. All agree that the phenomenon needs to be closely observed.‎ ‎32.What puzzles scientists according to Paragraph 1?‎ A. Something strange and worrying in life. B. Uncontrolled global warming. C. The increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. D. The effects of climate change on everybody.‎ ‎33.What opinion does Jason Samenow hold on the gradual increase of carbon dioxide?‎ A. People still have decades to solve this problem. B. Uncontrolled greenhouse effect may happen in some situation. C. The Earth's natural systems for absorbing the gas have completely broken down. D. The public shouldn't be responsible for carbon dioxide emissions.‎ ‎34.What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?‎ A. Forest fires in North America. B. Low temperatures in the South Pole. C. Hot summers in Europe. D. North and South differences in climate change.‎ ‎35.How will scientists deal with the high temperatures?‎ A. By observing the phenomenon closely. B. By giving a solution directly. C. By experiencing high temperatures personally. D. By setting a new trend soon.‎ E ‎    Imagine an area 34 times the size of Manhattan. Now imagine it covered ankle-deep in plastic waste—a total of about 19 billion pounds of garbage.       (36)     ‎ ‎    "We're being overwhelmed (淹没) by our waste," said Jenna Jambeck, an environmental engineer who led the 2015 study that determined this astonishing number.     (37)    , unless something is done to stop the tide of garbage.‎ ‎    Plastic—a widely-used material—has in many ways been a benefit to humans but it has also caused a growing problem. Today, plastics are the No. 1 type of garbage found in the sea. Ocean Conservancy, a nonprofit that organizes an annual coastal cleanup event worldwide, said plastic waste makes up around 85 percent of the garbage collected from beaches and oceans.‎ ‎    Ocean Conservancy says plastics are believed to threaten at least 600 different wildlife species.     (38)    ; a growing body of evidence suggests humans are consuming plastics through the seafood we eat. A study suggests some plastics could be poisonous to humans, and could potentially increase the risk of health problems.‎ ‎        (39)    . At the Economist World Ocean Summit this week, ten nations announced to reduce plastic sea litter as part of UN Environment's Clean Seas Campaign.     (40)     Corporations also have a role, as do individuals. We can start by thinking twice before using single-use plastic products—and when we do use them, we should take care to properly throw them off or recycle.‎ A．The following is what we should do B．And it's not just wildlife that's threatened C．And this figure is likely to double by 2025‎ D．But it's not just countries that need to do their part E．By 2050, that figure is expected to rise to 1,000 species F．That's how much plastic waste ends up in our oceans every year G．All of us have an important role to play in dealing with the problems 三、完形填空 We all have an idea about the common types of environmental problems. However, light pollution may be a(n) (41) term to many of us. But, the fact is, it does (42) mankind, other living forms and the environment as a whole. Light pollution (43) all forms of the misused man-made light. It is(44) when artificial light sources brighten certain areas, which do not(45) lighting. It can be office lighting, car(46), street lights and many more. Light pollution is(47) to both animals and human beings. Upon studies, obvious effects have been observed in the (48) of animals which are active at night. It is found that (49)light at night makes it difficult for these animals to(50), wander and perform their regular activities. As to human beings, light pollution is directly or indirectly(51) for causing several diseases. Its effects are related to (52) in the body clock. It contributes to(53) of developing cancerous cells. So, it's nothing less than a (54) human health. Apart from this, the actual(55) of misused light is about millions of dollars every year. It also leads to the release of greenhouse(56)and global warming. After all, fuels are used ‎ for producing(57)in all countries. While outdoor lighting is part of our (58) lifestyle, some simple ways will surely help to reduce light pollution. For example, while(59) outdoor lighting, make sure that they are pointed downwards.

These spots are usually away from popular tourist attractions，which means that to find them you'll need the spirit of an explorer.‎ That's   (62)   I came across roujiamo when I was exploring Beijing. I found   (63)   restaurant that sold dishes from Xi'an when I explored the area around   (64)   (I) office one day. I decided to try it out.‎ My roujiamo  (65)   (make) fresh, so the bread was still warm. It was soft when I bit into it, and the meat inside was delicious and tender. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I ordered more to take home with me. Though it's just a snack, it's still quite filling and can   (66)   (easy) satisfy your appetite.‎ There are   (67)   (kind) of things you can put inside the“mo”, as the bread is called. For example, in certain areas in Xi'an, the meat   (68)   (use) is usually beef, but in Gansu Province, lamb is more common. And the first roujiamo that I tried was made   (69)  pork. However it's made, it's still a tasty snack. And for an American like me who grew up   (70)  (eat) hamburgers, it's a perfect combination of East and West.‎ 五、 短文改错 假定英语课上老师要求同桌中间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文．文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处，每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改．增加：把缺词处加个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写出该加的词．删除：把多余的词用斜线（ ）划掉．修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词． 注意：1．每处错误及其修改均仅限一词； 2．只许修改 10处，从第11处起不计分．‎ I couldn't believe my ears when I heard my name calling． I was chosen to play the leading role in the play， that was my dream． As a shy and thin girl， I was used to be quite afraid of speak in public． But my parents and teachers always encourage me to do so． Now I have changed great． In class， I am often the first one to stand up and answering questions even if I may make some mistakes． No pains， no gains． Now I am always brave enough overcome the difficulty in my heart and have changed in a lively girl． So my experience shows that we should not be afraid of losing face and only in this way can we make progresses．‎ 六、书面表达 英语老师为了提高复习效率，广泛征求学生意见。假如你是英语课代表，由你来征求并整理大家的意见。请根据以下提示，给老师写一封反馈信，表达同学们的意见和建议，并提出自己的看法(2点)。 1.进度不要太快，给学生留出时间思考； 2.对于重点和易错点要反复练习； 3. ...... 注意： 1.词数100左右 2.不要逐词逐句地翻译，可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。‎ 英语周测一答案和解析 ‎【答案】听力 ‎1~5CCAAB 6~10CBAAB 11~15CABBB 16~20CACAC 阅读理解 1.
