A

13、The dodo was a ground nesting(筑巢), flightless bird. An adult dodo could grow to a height of about a meter and weigh between 45-50 pounds. The natural habitat of this kind of bird lay in the forest of Mauritius.

Seed(种子) and fruits that were found in the forest were the main food of the dodo birds. As they could easily get the food they required in the forest, they didn’t need to fly. As time went by, they finally lost the ability to fly. It turned out to be a major disadvantage for dodos, as they were left with no ability to protect themselves against human beings’ attacks in their natural habitat, which drove this kind of bird to extinction(灭绝).

The extinction of the dodo started in 1505, when Portuguese sailors set their foot on the Island of Mauritius. Before this, the dod o didn’t face any danger. People began to hunt them. It was not long before animals, like cats, pigs and monkeys, were also introduced to the island by humans. When ships arrived, the rats on these ships came onto the land. Though these animals were not able to attack huge dodos, it was easy for them to attack dodos’ nests on the ground. These animals continued to feed on dodo eggs.

The dodo became a relatively(相对地) rare bird in Mauritius at the beginning of the 17th century, and became extinct in the end. The last reported sighting of a dodo was in 1681.

1．Why did the dodo lose its ability to fly?

A．Because it liked walking on the ground.

B．Because it had no enemies in the forest.

C．Because it was too big to fly.

D．Because it didn’t need to fly to look for food.

2．What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

A．Humans hunted for dodos for money .

B．Dodos’ nesting places were attacked by human beings.

C．The dodo became extinct because of human activity.

D．Other animals on the island lived mainly on dodos’ meat.

3．What does the passage mainly talk about?

A．The extinction of the dodo.

B．The appearance of the dodo.

C．The actions taken to protect the dodo.

D．The punishment for hunting the dodo

Cities are taking interest in electric scooter-share systems as an affordable transportation to cut down on pollution and traffic jams. The electric scooters, which weigh between 30 and 40 pounds, reach speeds of about 15 mph.

In September 2017，Santa Monica, California, became the first U.S. city to

have an electric scooter-share service. Users find and unlock one of the more than

1，000 scooters with a smartphone app. A ride costs $ 1，and then 0.15 cents for

each minute of riding throughout the beach town.

Bird, the startup operating the scooter-share, picks up the scooters every

night to them, and places them around Santa Monica each morning ready for people’s use. The company was created by Travis VanderZanden, who once worked in Uber and Lyft, after he realized ridesharing services failed to help with traffic jams and air pollution. Since its September 2017 beginning, Bird’s system has served more than 50,000 riders who have taken 250,000 trips — more than half of which have been in the last month. It’s since expanded (扩张) to Venice, California, and some neighborhoods in Los Angeles and San Diego. Bird plans to expand to lots of markets by the end of 2018.

Competitors，backed by millionaires，are appearing. Two bike-share startups LimeBike and Spin, have spoken of plans to provide electric scooters in cities this year.

Electric scooters have also gotten the attention of Mayor Pete Buttigieg from South Bend，

Indiana. The city is interested in using them as a way to improve public transportation. South Bend was one of the first to use bike-share systems, which allow people to park ridesharing bikes on public land. “We love to be early pioneers，” said Buttigieg. “If we work out the safety problem, we would be open to welcoming the technology.”

“We need to make sure these new transportation systems are lawful and safe for users，”

Constance Farrell，a spokeswoman for the city of Santa Monica told CNN. “We would like to see electric scooters continue to operate in the city. They are in line with our goal of multi-modal living and

carbon-light living. ” According to Farrell，there have been eight accidents, including one with a serious head injury，in Santa Monica after the scooters rolled out. Users are required to have a driver’s license (驾照），shouldn’t ride on sidewalks or have other passengers on board.

Bird has given out free helmets to some riders and tells its users to ride in bike lanes, but some users ride on sidewalks, and most U.S. streets don’t have bike lanes.

“The global community of cities is goin g to have to work this all out for scooters，”Buttigieg said. “They can move unbelievably quickly. That’s exciting，and a little dangerous. ”

A．Because he received support from millionaires and the government. B．Because many cities had electric scooter-share services.

C．Because it is lawful and safe to use electric scooters.

18、“Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person’s life for the better, which makes everyone a better person,” Mason, a volunteer said.

National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their

achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization’s expectations. Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities.

The following tips can help if you have some of these worries:

★Start out slowly, don’t add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone’s life.

★Choose an organization with the same interests and common values.

★Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked.

★Work with a veteran(经验丰富的) volunteer. He volunteered a lot; he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization’s expectations.

★Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.

★Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If the experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the right opportunity.

Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people’s lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, “﹍little things can change a person’s life.”

1．Volunteering can help _____.
