24、Every summer, the Serengeti plains（平原）of Africa are worth visiting. Millions of wild animals begin their 1,800-mile journey northwards on their annual migratory（迁移的）route.

In the month of November, polar bears in their thousands cross the Canadian Arctic, as they head towards the ice sheets of Hudson Bay. The sea ice that forms every winter is the key to the bear’s managing to exist, for here they hunt for seals (海豹).

The Great Bustard, one of the heaviest flying birds, migrates each year across Europe and Asia to its wintering grounds. Unluckily, these and other migratory animals are in danger from human activity.

We have written several articles on climate change and the influence of rising ocean temperatures. Since 1979, ice sheets in the Arctic have gone down by 30 percent. What does this mean for polar bears? They are forced to stay on land for longer periods of time, which delays their search for food. As a result, bears today are 60 pounds lighter than what they were. Besides, smaller bears also produce weaker babies, and their chances of survival are at risk. In the plains of Africa, migratory animals like gazelles are traveling long distances for food, just to avoid falling prey（牺牲品）to humans who hunt them.

In an unusual step, experts from 120 countries have agreed to protect 31 migratory mammals, fish and birds. The United Nation’s 11th annual Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals (CMS) was held in Quito, Ecuador. For the first time, 900 experts attended the conference, and the enthusiastic support shows the world is united in conservation（保护）efforts.

What does getting on a protected list mean? Countries that have signed the agreement will be required to pass laws locally and work with other countries that fall within the animal's migratory path. Only one animal did not make the list. The African lion was rejected（拒绝）for lack of information of the countries where it lives.

【1】What can we learn from the passage? ________

A．The Great Bustard is one of the largest flying birds.

B．The weight of polar bears today is lighter than what it was.

C．In the 1970s, ice sheets went down by 30 percent.

D．120 experts have agreed to protect 21 migratory animals.

【2】Why was the African lion not included in the list from the passage? ________

A．We don’t know which countries it lives in.

B．It isn’t a migratory animal.

C．Experts were not interested in this animal.

D．It was not traveling long distances for food.

【3】The writer writes this passage aiming to________.

A．let us know about the animals

B．prevent the endangered animals from dying out

C．warn us about the influence of climate change

D．draw our attention to helping the migratory animals

【4】All these reasons have probably led the migratory animals to danger EXCEPT ________.

A．some human activity

B．the support from experts

C．rising ocean temperatures

D．the climate change

25、   What do you know about failure?(失败) In one way of thinking, failure is part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards success. The Spider Story is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century, was hiding in a cave form the English. He watched a spider spinning a web (结网). The spider tried to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times and six times, he failed. On the seventh time, he made it and went on to spine his web. Bruce is said to have taken heart and to have gone on to defeat (击败) the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb made hundreds of models that failed before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked why he kept on trying to make a new type of battery when he failed so often. He replied, “Failure? I have no failure. Now I know 50,000 ways that won’t work.”

The first thing to remember is that nobody can succeed every time. So take it as a common thing. You can’t win them all. Second, always think about your failure. What’s the reason of it? What can you change so that things will go right next time? Third is keep trying and don’t give up. That is the secret of success.

27、We all know the dangers of fires. It’s good and necessary for a family to learn how to prepare for a fire. Here are some suggestions.

Put a smoke alarm in the house. Smoke from a fire causes the alarm to go off. The alarm makes a loud sound. The sound tells everyone to leave the house at once.

Make escape (逃生) plans. We should know all the ways out of the house. If there is a fire, everyone follows the plan to get out. Part of the plan is to check all the windows to make sure they can be opened easily.

Put fire extinguishers (灭火器) in the house. Everyone in the family should know how to us them.

Practice for a fire. We do fire practice because we teach children about fire safety. Everyone in the family should know the following fire rules.

★Don’t open a hot door! The fire can grow more quickly if you open the door.

★Stay close to the floor to keep away from the smoke! Smoke can be more dangerous than fire. The best air is near the floor because smoke rises.

★What will you do if your clothes start to burn? First, stop! Don’t run! The fire burns faster because of more air. Fall to the floor. Then roll (打滚)! Turning over and over will make the fire go out. Put a blanket (毯子) around you to keep air away from the fire that may still be on you.

A wise family is ready all the time. If there is a fire, don’t forget to call 119 for help.
