Farmers do not like crows (乌鸦) because these birds eat newly-
planted seeds (种子). They are afraid that they will not have anything left in
autumn if the birds eat up all the seeds.
It is hard for farmers to get close enough to kill crows. Crows have
very good eyes and good hearing. They are also very careful. While some are
eating the newly-planted seeds, others sit on the tallest trees around the fields.
Caw-caw-caw, cries the first crow to see farmers coming. All the other
lookout crows join in the crying and then, in no time at all, there is not a crow
to be seen. Farmers have found several ways to kill crows. But it is good that
there are still crows about. These birds are our friends. They pay for the seeds
they eat by killing pests(害虫). One pest, for example, can eat up several
plants in a few hours. With thousands of them at work in one night, we might
find ourselves without food to eat. This is why we should not try to kill off
the crow.
56. According to the writer, crows only bring troubles to farmers.
A. Right
B. Wrong。

Internet(因特网)use seems to cause a decline(下降)in psychological(心理的')health,which is reported by a study.Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet felt more depression(沮丧)and loneliness than those who spent little time on the Internet, the two-year study showed. And it wasn't that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Internet seems to cause the bad feelings.Scientists are surprised at the results, which were quite different from what they thought before. They thought that the Internet would make people psychologically healthier than TV, since on the Internet users are free to choosetheir information and to communicate(交流)with others.However, the scientists also said, when people spend a lot of time or even all the day time on the lntemet, there is no time left for them to be with their family and friends. They can' t have real conversations. Another possible reason is that people can see the outside world on the Internet and it makes them less satisfied(满意的)with their lives."But it' s important to remember this is not about the Internet itself; it' s about how it is used, " one of the scientists says.56.

◆赞助太平洋科学中心自1962年以来,太平洋科学中心一直激发(人们)对科学、数学和技术领域发现和终身学习的热情。

如今太平洋科学中心每年接待游客130多万人,为整个华盛顿州的课堂和社区活动提供了以探索为特征的科学教育。

这是一项了不起的成就,如果没有个人、公司和其他社会组织的慷慨赞助,我们就无法取得的一项成就。

请访问发现赞助的多种方式。

B我在野生动物志愿者组织工作,这是一家(提供野生动物)救援和教育的机构,位于蝗虫谷贝利植物园。

尽量帮助受伤、流离失所或生病的动物是令人心碎的,(因为我们)从来不能确定它们能否存活。

但是,当救助起作用的时候,简直太美好了。

我接到了羊肉镇一名女子的救援电话,她在地上发现了一只猫头鹰幼雏。

我到现场时,看到了一只两到三周大的猫头鹰。

为了安全它已经被放置在一个架子上。

我检查了这只幼雏,似乎它很正常。

如果我能找到巢穴,也许能把它放回去,但是没找到。

接下里我要做的是建造一个巢穴,并把它固定在树上。

房主非常乐于助人,给我找了一个铁丝篮。

为了让巢更加舒适、安全,我放进去了一些松树枝。

我将这只雏鸟放进去后,它很快就平静下来了。

现在它只需要父母,但它们却不在。

我给了房主一份关于猫头鹰幼雏饥饿时尖声鸣叫的录音。

Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already zxxk been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches intothe basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure,but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH!The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.24.What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according ro paragraph 1?A.Efforts made in vain.B.Getting injured in his work.C.Feeling uncertain about his future.D.Creatures forced out of their homes.25.Why was the author called to Muttontown?A.To rescue a woman.B.To take care of a woman.C.To look at a baby owl.D.To cure a young owl.26.What made the chick calm down?A.A new nest.B.Some food.C.A recording.D.Its parents.27.How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A.It’s unexpected.B. It’s beautiful.C. It’s humorous.D. It’s discouraging.CSome of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO( United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying(联合) voice across cultures.Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture.“Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tells National Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. “What I’m hoping to accomplish is that mu generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore. It’s actually color, and it’s actually digital.”Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran.Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party, “Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music as much as it is concert music,” says Moran. “For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion(情感) lie? Are we, as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes we lose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “So I want to continue those dialogue. Those are the things I want to foster.”28.Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A.To remember the birth of jazz.B.To protect cultural diversity.C.To encourage people to study music.D.To recognize the value of jazz.29.What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Jazz becoming more accessible.B.The production of jazz growing faster.C.Jazz being less popular with the young.D.The jazz audience becoming larger.30.What can we infer about Moran’s opinion on jazz?A.It will disappear gradually.B.It remains black and white.C.It should keep up with the times.D.It changes every 50 years.31.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Exploring the Future of jazz.B.The Rise and Fall of jazz.C.The Story of a jazz Musician.D.Celebrating the Jazz Day.DA buld-it-yourself solar still(蒸馏器)is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it’s an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, you must carry the necessary equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only componentsrequired, though, are a 5’ 5’ sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and a container— perhaps just a drinking cup — to catch the water. These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher’s productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole.Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet’s center down with a rock. The plastic should now form a cone(圆锥体) with 45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must be centered directly over, and no more than three inches above, the cup.The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the material and fall off into the cup.
