Otters（水獭）are cute water animals. These days, keeping otters as pets is getting popular. In Japan, some “otter cafés（咖啡馆）”are open for business. People can pay to play with the otters there and to take photos with them. In Indonesia, people go swimming with their pet otters and take funny videos. These photos and videos posted online have interested more people to buy otters as pets. However, these enjoyable photos and videos hide the damage（损害）that the online trade is doing to otters. In fact, wild otters are facing many dangers-they have long been hunted（猎杀）for their coats; in some places, fishermen have been killing otters in order to stop them from eating fish; and now, the online pet trade has become another big problem for otters.

In the wild, baby otters usually stay with their mothers during their first year of life. According to a report, 70% of the otters sold online are under one year old. These baby otters have been stolen from their mothers.

Otters are very social. They live in family groups of up to 15 in the wild. Keeping an otter as a pet can make it very sad and lonely. When they swim, they need enough space. Their owners’ bathtubs（浴缸）or pools are nowhere near as large as the bodies of water in the wild.

On the other hand, otters simply don’t make good pets. They have a very special fishy smell. If they are kept indoors, they will leave a lot of waste around the house. This would make the smell even more unpleasant. Besides, when otters are unhappy, they will make loud noises and even attack（攻击）people. If a person is hurt by an otter, he or she needs to go to hospital at once.

So, we should stop the otter trade and never share photos and videos about them online.

【1】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 1?

A．Different kinds of otters.

B．The advantages of playing with otters.

【2】Wild otters are facing the following dangers EXCEPT

A．people kill otters for their coats

B．people buy and sell them online

C．people kill them to eat their meat

D．people kill them to stop them from eatingfish

【3】What do we know about otters in the wild?

A．Most otters sold online are just one year old.

B．They like to live in family groups.

C．They don’t need enough space while swimming.

D．Baby otters never stay with their mothers.

【4】Why don’t otters make good pets?

a. They may attack people.

b. They may make loud noises.

c. They have a special fishy smell.

d. They need to go to hospital often.

A．a,b,c

B．a,b,d

25、Last year，I worked in a middle school near my mother's house，and I stayed with her for a month. During that time，I helped her do some housework and buy some food.

After the first week，I noticed that the food was eaten up very quickly. Then I began keeping an eye on my mum. To my surprise，I found that she would put some of the food into a paper bag and go out with it at about nine every morning. And finally，I decided to follow her. I saw her taking the food to the street children. She would also spend a lot of time talking and playing with them.

One day，I talked to a neighbor and found out that my mum was well-known in the area. The children were very friendly with her and even thought of her as their own mother. Then it hit me why wouldn't she want to tell me about it? Was she worried that I would stop buying food if I found out?

When my mum got home，I gave her a big hug (拥抱)．I told her she didn't need to keep it a secret from me. And she told me something about the children. Some of them lived with an old lady in a small house. Others slept on the street. For years，she was helping the poor street children by giving them food. After she told me everything，I was so moved by how selfless (无私的) she was. She helped others in need. As her son, I was so proud of my mum.

26、

Karie checked the words carefully on her spelling test. If she got 100 percent today, she’d win her class’s Spelling Challenge and a new dictionary. Plus, Ms. Green had promised to do a handstand if anyone got a perfect score.

Three more words to go. N-i-c-e-l-y. Q-u-i-c-k-l-y. H-o-n-e-s-t-y. Wait! She’d spelled honesty, not honestly! She deleted the t-y and wrote l-y before handing in her paper.

After the break, Ms. Green walked to the front of the room and cleared her throat. Then, as if she were an Olympic gymnast, Ms. Green’s feet flipped into the air. “Congratulations, Karie! You did it!” she announced while upside down. The whole class cheered! Ms. Green presented Karie with her prize. Karie smiled happily for her perfect in spelling.

After school, Karie rushed in to her home. “Everything’s PERFECT”she shouted, showing Mom her spelling test and prize. Karie picked up her cat. “Can you spell nicely, Casper? And quickly and honesly, and ...” Karie’s stomach tumbled(坍塌) to the floor. Honesly? H-O-N-E-S-L-Y!

After that, Karie stepped down the hall and fell onto her bed. How could she tell the class she hadn’t earned the prize after all? That Ms. Green did the handstand for nothing? Karie pulled out the test paper. It wasn’t her fault that Ms. Green had given her the prize. Shouldn’t Ms. Green have been more careful when grading her test? If, no one would ever know.

The next morning, Karie’s hands shook. She gave her teacher the spelling paper and the dictionary. “I can’t keep this. I misspelled honestly and you didn’t catch it.” “I see.” For a moment, Ms. Green picked up the pen. She crossed out the word “perfect” and wrote “honest” before handing the dictionary back to Karie. “I get to keep this? Honestly?” “For honestly, no.” Ms. Green smiled, “But for honesty, yes.”

【1】Karie took part in ________ .

A．a speaking test

B．a Spelling Challenge

C．a handstand test

D．an Olympic event

【2】At home, after Karie noticed her mistake, she ________.

A．felt very upset

B．felt very happy secretly

C．put the missing “t” back in

D．deleted the t-y and wrote l-y

【3】Why did Ms. Green give the prize back to Karie?

A．Because Karie told the truth.

B．Because Karie got 100 percent.

C．Because Ms. Green was not careful.

D．Because Ms. Green crossed out the word “perfect”.

27、“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine.”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine.” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”.

Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might be thinking, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong.” But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not so sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.

People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says “I have to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse, “Someone’s at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuse might be real, or it might not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.

Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s a part of the game of language.

【1】When a person in the United States asks “How are you?”, he or she wants to hear “ ________”.

A．How are you?

B．Fine.

C．I don’t know.

【2】When a person wants to disagree with someone, it is polite to say “________”.

A．You’re wrong. I disagree.

B．I’m not so sure.

C．I’m sure I disagree.

【3】When a person says “I have to go now. Someone’s at the door.”, the person may be ________.

A．giving an excuse

B．hurting someone’s feeling

C．talking to a person at the door

【4】One of the rules of the game of language is probably ________.

A．“Be polite.”

B．“Don’t disagree with other people.”

C．“Never say exactly what you’re thinking.”
