26、 An English vicar, Sam Leach, climbed 165 feet to the top of his church not long ago. He always had a fear of heights, but he wanted to set himself free by taking the vertigo challenge, while raising money for urgently needed at his church in Devon.
He tied himself to a rope and successfully climbed up the church all the way to the top, despite feeling terribly sick at the thought of it. Sam joined three others in climbing up and down in just under an hour. The feeling he had at the top? It was “very exciting and enjoyable”.
“Actually,” says Sam, “I would do it again. The view was so amazing, looking out the town center. The fear this morning when I first got up there left my knees shaking. I was really nervous but strangely, not quite as frightened as I thought I would be. When I started doing it, I just looked straight ahead. I was not looking up, as that’s what makes me get vertigo. I was not worried about my safety, as I was tied to a rope.”
Sam’s church is covered in scaffolding at present for repairs whose money was provided by the UK’s National Lottery Heritage Fund. But while the work has been going on, US $9,000 in new repairs became necessary in the kitchen—an important part of the church’s connection with the community. “Hospitality is a key value of the church,” Sam says.
“It’s not about the building; it’s what we can offer to the community—and the kitchen is important to that.”
【1】Why did Sam Leach climb his church?
A.To overcome his fear of heights. B.To raise money to build a new church.
C.To enjoy the amazing view of the town. D.To try to get great excitement.
【2】How did Sam feel that day?
A.He was not frightened at all. B.He was excited but nervous.
C.He was confident about the goal. D.He was anxious about his safety.
【3】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.US $9,000 is needed for the whole repair of the church.
B.The kitchen was the least important part of the church.
C.The repair work of the church has been finished.
D.The church often offers food to the community.
【4】What can be inferred from the passage about Sam?
A.He raised money for climbing the church. B.He didn’t have a sense of responsibility.
C.He was brave enough to challenge himself. D.He finished climbing up and down alone.
27、While elephants born without tusks (长牙)are not unheard of,they normally form just 2 to 6 percent of the population. However, that is not the case at Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park, where an astonishing 33 percent of female elephants born after the country’s civil war ended in 1992 are tuskless. While that may appear to be just a coincidence, Joyce Poole, an elephant behavior expert, has another theory. The researcher thinks we may be witnessing unnatural evolution of the species due to the constant hunting of elephants for valuable ivory.
Poole says before the country’s 15-year-long civil war, the 100,000—acre park was home to over 4,000 elephants. However, by the time the conflict ended in 1992, about 90 percent of them had been killed for ivory to help finance weapons (武器)and meat to feed the soldiers. Of the less than 200 survivors, over 50 percent of adult females had no tusks. Therefore, it is not surprising that the park’s tuskless elephant population has grown greatly.
This is not the first time researchers have observed a great change in the population of elephants. At Zambia’s South Luangwa National Park and Lupande Game Management Area, areas which were heavily hunted in the 1970s and 1980s, 35% of elephants 25 years or older and 13% of those younger than 25 are now without tusks. A 2008 study published in the African Journal of Ecology found that the number of tuskless females at the Ruaha National Park in Tanzania went from 10.5 percent in 1969 to almost 40 percent in 1989, largely due to illegal hunting for ivory.
The recent ban on ivory in both the US and China should help get rid of, or at least reduce, elephant hunting. However, scientists are not sure how long it will take for elephants with a higher rate of tuskless females, to change the trend.
【1】What is the probable cause of the phenomenon mentioned in Paragraph 1 ?
A.Illegal hunting.
B.Constant farming.
C.A pure coincidence.
D.Natural evolution.
【2】Why did people kill so many elephants during the civil war in Mozambique?
A.To get funds by selling ivory.
B.To develop new weapons.
C.To provide food for local people.
D.To make ivory products.
【3】Which of the following had the earliest record on tuskless elephants?
A.Gorongonsa National Park.
B.South Luangwa National Park.
C.The Ruaha National Park.
D.Lupande Game Management Area.
【4】What does the underlined phrase “the trend”in the last paragraph refer to?
A.Elephants facing greater danger.
B.Elephants growing more slowly.
C.Fewer female elephants staying alive.
D.More female elephants being tuskless.
28、 When I was 12 years old, I already knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life. I was a total outsider, bullied (欺凌) at school. I felt completely alone in my small town.
But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.
Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author so I could write books that would help other teenagers the way those books helped me.
After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home, I made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.
Kindness saved me when I needed help the most. Even small acts of kindness can change someone’s life. You never know what someone else is going through. But by practicing daily kindness, you become an architect of positive change.

29、 Four wild young pandas were found at different times walking around with their mothers in a nature reserve in northwestern China in recent months, a report said on Sunday. Infrared (红外线的) cameras in Baishuijiang National Nature Reserve in Gansu Province caught four young pandas following their mothers and learning survival skills, such as feeding themselves, in the first quarter of 2019.
It was the latest finding of new young pandas in the area, which has the largest population of wild pandas among China’s 67 nature reserves. The fourth national survey on pandas, released in 2015, said there were 110 wild pandas living in the Baishuijiang area. A total of 1,864 lived in China.
The Baishuijiang National Nature Reserve has used infrared cameras since 2012 to monitor pandas, but this is the first time that four pairs of pandas have been found. “In the past, we found one pair every quarter at most,” said He Liwen, director of the Baishuijiang reserve. The young pandas’ body sizes suggested that two of them were a year and a half old, while the other two were almost 2 years old.
“The four pairs were caught in different places far away from each other. It’s very easy to see the differences,” he said. “So we can be sure of the number. “Baishuijiang staff members also found rare wildlife, including golden monkeys, Asian golden cats and gazelles.
The reserve director attributed (把……归因于……) the good news to the government’s hard work and local people’s efforts to protect the natural habitat over many years. “It’s a process of continuous, growing progress,” he said.

A Bad Idea
Think you can walk, dive, take phone calls, e-mail and listen to music at the same time? Well, New York's new law says you can't. And you'll be 【1】 $S100 if you do it on a New York City street.
The law went into force last month, following research and a(n) 【2】number of accidents that involved people using electronic gadgets when crossing the street.
Who's to【3】 ? Scientists say that our multitasking abilities are limited.
"We are under the impression that our brain can do more than it often can," says Rene Marois, a neuroscientist in Tennessee. “But a major limitation is the inability to【4】on two things at once".
The young people are often considered the great multitaskers. However, an Oxford University research suggests this idea is open to question. A group of 18-to 21-year-olds and a group of 35-to 39-year-olds were given 90 seconds to translate【5】into numbers, using a simple code. The younger group did 10 percent better when not interrupted. But when both groups were interrupted by a phone call or a(n) 【6】message, the older group matched the younger group in speed and 【7】.
It is difficult to measure the productivity【8】by multitaskers. But it is probably a lot. Jonathan Spire, chief analyst at Basex. a business-research firm, estimates the cost of interruptions to the American economy at nearly $650 billion a year.
The【9】is based on surveys with office workers. The surveys conclude that 28 percent of the workers' time was spent on interruptions and【10】time before they returned to their main tasks.
