Pandas, rhinoceros, Mexican burrowing snakes, pink pigeons and small tooth sawfish.They are all endangered animals! Animals become endangered for a variety of reasons. Sadly, humans are behind every one of them!For centuries, humans have hunted elephants for their tusks, and killed tigers for their beautiful furs, caught fish for food. While we still have elephants, tigers, and fish in the wild, we cannot say the same about many others that have simply died out!Year 1505 was a dreadful turning point in the natural history of the island ofW1Mauritius—European sailors discovered this beautiful island in the Indian OceanW2and brought dogs, pigs, monkeys with them. The arri v al of humans and those introduced animal species were bad news for dodo birds (渡渡鸟). About 50 pounds and flightless, dodo birds did not have any natural enemies until then. They picked fruits fallen from trees and built their nests on the ground. Shortly after humans set foot Pon Mauritius, however, dodo birds realized that they were in big trouble—men killed them for their meat, and those introduced animal species destroyed their nests and ateW3their eggs. The effects of excessi v e hunting and foreign species drove dodo birds to first become much fewer and then die out. The last dodo bird was killed in 1681.Humans and animals have always competed for land and other natural resources. We clear an area of a forest for farming. We cut down trees and use wood to buildW4beautiful houses. We build reser v oirs to make sure that we have enough water to use. At the same time that we are trying to make our life comfortable, we destroy the habitats of wild animals.More than once we have seen on television that rescue workers are trying their best to save seabirds in spilled (泄漏的) oil. More than once we have heard about how emissions of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳的排放) and other gases have raised the Earth temperature and caused global warming. Pollution has a serious and longlasting effect. If we choose to do nothing and continue to pollute our planet Earth, our next generations will have to face an Earth without birds singing and beasts roaring.篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。

They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.__1__ The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly. Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses.__2__So they are called “diseases of civilization”. Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none.__3__However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones. They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits. They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains.__4__We eat six times more salt than our ancestors. We eat more sugar. We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.__5__But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.A.Stone Age people lived a simple life.B.These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.C.In that case, they would live much healthier.D.Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.E.But today, we enjoy eating a lot of these.F.People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.G.Modern people used to suffer from “diseases of civilization”.篇章导读:本文是一篇议论文。

Then we are discouraged W1that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are. After that we're frustrated (沮丧) that we have teenagers to deal with P2. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage.We always tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our mate gets his or her act together,when we get a nice car and are able to go on a nice vacation when weretire. The truth is, there's no better time than right now. If not now, when? Our life will always be filled with challenges. It's best to admit this to ourselves and decide to be happy anyway.One of my favorite quotes (引语) comes from Alfred D. Souza. He said,“For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin—real life. But there was always some obstacle (障碍) in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it_dawned_on_me that these obstacles were my life.” This perspective (观点,想法) has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness.Happiness is the way.So treasure W2every moment that you have.And remember that time waits for no one. So stop waiting until you finish school;until you go back to school; until you get married; until you get divorced; until you have kids; until you retire; until you get a new car or house; until spring; until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy ...Happiness is a journey, not a destination W3. So, work like you don't need money,love like you've never been hurt, and dance like no one's watching.1.The best title of the passage is ________.A.Happiness Is a DestinationB.Our Life Will Be Filled with ChallengesC.Life Will Be BetterD.Happiness Is a Journey答案:D标题判断题。

It will turn off the in-store music and TVs to make the shop perfect for anyone who is troubled by loud noises.Manager Simon Lea says “you'll be able to hear a pin (大头针) drop” when he starts his first quiet hour at 8 am on Saturday May 7.He decided to introduce it after seeing a boy with autism crying on the shop floor two weeks ago.“This boy was kicking and shouting. His mum just didn't know what to do. She told me he has autism,” said Simon, a 39-year-old father of two. “Then I gave him a£1 football. This boy looked at me and he started playing with the football.”Because of the event, the manager decided to talk to a member of staff (员工) with an autistic child and disabled shoppers to see if he could do anything for them.The result is the “quiet hour”,which will mean staff coming in an hour early at 6 am to prepare the shop for the May 7 event.“It's all about helping people really. Six months ago I would have said ‘control your child’even though I've got children. But learning about autistic and other disabled people has helped me think about how I can make it a better place to shop,” said Simon. “I myself suffered for many years with anxiety (焦虑). I used to hate going into busy stores. There are a lot of people who have mental illness and we want to make the shop better for them.”【语篇解读】本文是记叙文。

姓名,年级:时间:课时分层作业(十三) Section Ⅰ[高考题型练习提能力]Ⅰ.阅读理解AListening to music is considered a good thing for adults.Indeed it is.Scientific studies have proved it。
Music has so many good effects on our body,mind and mood that this world will certainly not be a good place without music。
Then,is music good for children? Some parents think so and let their children learn or listen to music.But some parents don't know the importance of music to children。
Here are some reasons why music is important to children.First,music is good for children's intelligence。
Studies have proved that children who learn music are likely to have higher intelligence than those who have no interest in or dislike music。
This is because the brain gets stimulated (刺激) by the rhythm and tone of music。
Music also has soothing (抚慰的) effect on children and helps remove their stress.Today’s children are under a lot of stress from schoolwork。

He still can't recall several weeks of his life after the accident.What he does remember is watching the Olympics on TV and seeing Shaun White w in the gold medal.“It was hard lying there in the shape I was in, watching those guys do amazing tricks,” admits Pearce, looking through thick glasses.They keep him from seeing double.Today, Pearce's focus is getting his health back to 100%.So far, he's made rapid progress in his physical therapy(治疗).A year ago, he couldn't walk straight.Now, not only can he walk, but he can drive again.Pearce says his speedy recovery is the result of his fans, his friends and mostly, his family. His mother, Pia, says he r youngest son's positive attitude helped too.“I knew Kevin was going to find a way to be okay.”These days, Pearce is back on the snowboarding circuit(巡回赛).Instead of performing tricks, though, he's commenting on them from the broadcasting room.He still longs for competition.But heunderstands the danger of another fall.1.Kevin Pearce can say nothing about the accident because he ________.A.has no memory of the accidentB.isn't allowed to say anything about itC.lost the power of speech in the accidentD.doesn't want to recall the terrible experience2.The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to “________”.A.other playersB.Pearce's friendsC.other players' tricksD.Pearce's thick glasses3.What can be inferred from Pearce's mother's words?A.She is very worried about her son's health.B.She has confidence in her son's recovery.C.She is thankful to her friends and relatives.D.She regrets she can't help her son recover.4.We can learn from the passage that now Pearce ________.A.teaches others to snowboardB.is still involved in snowboardingC.is still lying in bed and watching TVD.is learning new skills from other playersBIn the competition of Olympic weightlifting, the athletes try to lift the maximum weight they can.There are special conditions they have to meet in order to compete: body weight, height and strength.The Olympic weightlifting mainly tests the limit of explosive strength(爆发力).There are not many lifters who really like Olympic weightlifting and the explanation is very simple: they are short of explosive strength.The weights used for Olympic weightlifting are added in kilogrammes.The order by which the athletes enter the competition is not general, but it is set depending on the ually the athletewith the lowest weight begins.If he/she is not successful, he/she can try later.There is a maximum of three lifts allowed for every competition.For many years Olympic weightlifting was only for men.However, now women also take part in Olympic weightlifting.It was at the beginning of the 21st century that women's competitions entered an organized professional environment.For women, Olympic weightlifting is more difficult because of their different body structure.However, strength training techniques(技术) are widely and successfully used by women, too.Lots of the athletes who've ended up in Olympic weightlifting competitions have started with strength training only to improve their muscle condition and their body power.However, the demarcation line(分界线) is not still very clear between power training and Olympic weightlifting.This is how so many lifters have got into Olympic weightlifting competition, even if their purpose was different at the beginning.5.Few lifters can take part in Olympic weightlifting mainly because ________.A.they are tired of the trainingB.they haven't been trained correctlyC.they can't learn the lifting techniquesD.they don't have enough explosive strength6.How many more times can a lifter try if he/she fails for the first time?A.Two.
