【題目】Kenya is losing an average of 100 of its 2,000 lions each year because of growing human settlements, increasing farming, climate change and diseases，according to the Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS).

“ Lions have a special place in Kenyans’life，” said Paul Udoto，a spokesman for the organization. “ Other than being the symbol of national strength, they are among the Big Five, a main attraction for visitors to Kenya. ”

There were 2,749 lions in Kenya in 2002 and Uieir population dropped to 2,280 by 2004 and to about 2,000 today, according to KWS figures.

“The fall of the lion population is worrying and every effort needs to be made to make sure that Kenya either protects its population of 2, 000 lions at present or increases the numbers to an ecologically acceptable level,” said Mr. Udoto.

“There is no doubt that the numbers are in free fall. I’ d be surprised if they even last as long as 20 years，” said Laurence Frank, project director of Living With Lions, a Kenya-based animal protection organization i When I first came here 30 years ago，I would always hear lions roaring across the land at night and see their tracks in the morning. Now that is very rare.

“The reason is simple。As the numbers of people grow and the numbers of cows increase they take up much of the lion’s space. Alongside that there are other ways, including poisoning 9 to kill lions. ”

Animal lovers are making a new strategy to save the animals. Part of the measures will include lions fitted with radio collars in the Amboseli area in southern Kenya, close to the border with Tanzania.

Wildlife officials in Tanzania face similar challenges in protecting their lions, but there is far less human encroachment (侵入）on the animals’ homeland there than in Kenya,

【1】What is the main reason of Kenya appreciating lions’ existence?

A. lions are the symbol of the national strength.

B. Lions are among the most endangered animals.

C. Lions are a subject of great concern to Kenyans.

D. Lions are the major appeal for foreign tourists.

【2】What does Laurence Frank mean by saying “they even last as long as 20 years ”?

A. It is alarming that the number of lions is declining at a high speed.

B. It is amazing that he has tolerated the decline for such a long time.

C. It is fascinating that many evidences have proven the decline trend,

D.It is surprising that a lion should live as long as twenty years in Kenya.

【3】In which aspect does the striking difference between Kenya and Tanzania in lion protection lie?

A.Climate changes.

B.Increasingly fanning.

C.Natural disasters*

D.Outbreaks of epidemics (流行�。�.

There are many cars in our town. For a result, there are lots of traffic jams, and the air which we will breathe is terrible. Our town is very old but all the streets are quite narrow, so there is no room for bus lanes, which mean that buses always get stuck in the traffic jams, too. However, lots of accidents with cyclists often happen because of crowded street. But I think there is a simple solution of these problems. The government should close city center to all traffic except buses and bikes, and build very larger car parks outside the town. Car drivers can take a bus into the city center and arrive at work or the shops relaxing and in a good mood.

【題目】Nowadays the U.S. students are sleepy in school because they spend too much time texting, playing video games, watching TV and using the media in other ways.

“Heavy media use interferes with sleep by reducing sleep duration, making it harder to fall asleep, and lowering sleep quality,” Meilan Zhang, an assistant professor at the University of Texas at El Paso, wrote in her research review in the journal, Sleep Medicine.

But the relationship between youth’s media use and sleep is not so simple, said Michael Gradisar, who authored both that review and the Sleep Medicine meta-analysis. “Technology use is the new evidence when we are trying to answer ‘Why are school-age children sleeping less?’” said Mr. Gradisar, an associate professor of psychology at Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia.

There may be safe limits to technology use, Mr. Gradisar stated. For instance, recent research results indicate that using a bright screen for an hour before bed or even playing violent video games for less than that will not necessarily interfere with teenagers’ sleep, he wrote.

But longer periods of usage can be harmful to sleep, Mr. Gradisar added. Rather than delaying school start times, he said, the first step should be educating parents about limiting the hours that their children are using technology before bed, and enforcing a consistent bedtime.

Early school start times are also commonly blamed for students’ sleepiness, especially for adolescents. Secondary schools around the nation and the world have been delaying start times, often with positive results.

Mr. Minnich of the TIMSS and PIRLS International Study Center hesitated to put blame to any particular factor. But he did think that cost-saving measures to consolidate（合并）bus routes might help explain U.S. students’ sleepiness.

“For those children who board the bus first, they must get up earlier, may end up sleeping on the way to school, and may end up arriving at school sleepy.” he said.

【1】Which of the following may be the good way to help kids sleep better?

A. Parents should be well educated.

B. Technology is forbidden at home.

C. Their playing time must be limited.

D. They are allowed to go to school early.

【2】What would be the factors that cause kids sleep troubles according to the text

a. Using the media.

b. Having breakfast.

c. Catching the bus.

d. The school timetable.

e. Doing too much homework.

A. a, d, e B. b, c, d

C. a, c, d D. b, d, e

【3】Which of the following may be the best title for the text?

A. Kids benefit a lot from technology.

B. Several sleep troubles appear at school.

C. Some tips can help kids sleep well.

D. Several factors affect kids’ sleep.

【題目】Sports are all about change. A team gets better. A kid practices more and swims a personal best or learns a new move on the basketball court. In 2006, two things happened that got me thinking about change—in sports and in life.

One of them is tennis champion Andre Agassi, who retired in 2006. Agassi was a terrific player who won 60 titles, including eight major championships(冠軍稱號(hào)). But his greatest accomplishment（成就）might have been how much he changed during his career.

When he was young, Agassi was a show off who seemed to care only about himself. He didn't train very hard, but he won matches because of his tremendous（極大的）talent.Eventually, though, injuries and his bad attitude caught up with him. He fell from No.1 in the world ranking to No.141.

So Agassi changed. He trained harder and became a world-class player again. More importantly, he changed as a person. He was nicer to fans and opponents（對(duì)手）. He stopped thinking just about himself and started thinking about others. Through his Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation, he raised more than $60 million to help disadvantaged kids around his hometown of Las Vegas, Nevada. He even started a school, the Andre Agassi College Preparatory Academy, for at-risk kids.

At the start of a new year, lots of people promise themselves they will change. They might vow to get in good physical shape, do better in school or be nicer to others. Changes such as those can be difficult. But they do happen. Just remember Andre Agassi: It wasn't easy, but he changed, and changed for the better.

【1】According to the writer, which of the following may be the greatest achievement for Agassi?

A. He once ranked No.1 in the world rankings.

B. He won 60 titles.

C. He changed much during his career.

D. He won 8 major championships.

【2】What does the underlined work “vow” in the 6th paragraph probably mean?

A. promise. B. agree. C. wish. D. prove.

【3】What do you know about Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation?

A. It is intended to help at-risk kids.

B. It is a charity school set up by Agassi.

C. Some disadvantaged kids can get help from it.

D. Agassi runs it with his prize money.

【4】What might be talked about in the paragraphs following this passage?

A. What achievements Agassi has made after he changed for the better.

B. How we can change for the better.

C. Another thing happened in life that got the writer thinking about change.

D. Some assessments(評(píng)價(jià)) about Agassi from different people.

Last summer, my parents and I have our family holiday in Hainan. Before the trip we booked plane tickets and the hotel where we were going to live in on the Internet and got some informations about the places we were going to visit. It was very hot in Hainan that neither of us could bear the heat. Lucky for us, it rained in the evening. The next day, we went to the seaside and lied on the beach, enjoying the beautiful scenery. On third day, we went shopping together and buying lots of seafood for our friends. Although the trip was short, but we had great fun.
