21、 Insects could disappear within a century at current rate of decline, says global review.
The world’s insects are rushing down the path to extinction, threatening a “catastrophic collapse of nature’s ecosystems”, according to the first global scientific review. More than 40% of insect species are declining and a third are endangered, the analysis found. The rate of extinction is eight times faster than that of mammals, birds and reptiles.
“It should be of huge concern to all of us, for insects are at the heart of every food web, they pollinate(授粉) the large majority of plant species, keep the soil healthy, recycle nutrients, control pests, and much more. Love them or hate them, we humans cannot survive without insects, ” said Professor Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex in the UK. In the food web, a creature often feeds on many kinds of creatures, and the same creature is eaten by many consumers. Therefore, when one species of organism is reduced or even extinct, other organisms will be affected.
The analysis says intensive agriculture is the main driver of the declines, particularly the heavy use of pesticides(杀虫剂). Urbanization and climate change are also significant factors.
One of the biggest impacts of insect loss is on the many birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish that eat insects. A small number of adaptable species are increasing in number, but not nearly enough to outweigh the big losses.
Matt Shardlow, at the conservation charity Buglife, said: “It is alarming to see this collation of evidence that demonstrates the pitiful state of the world’s insect populations. It is increasingly obvious that the planet’s ecology is breaking and there is a need for an intense and global effort to stop and reverse these dreadful trends.”
【1】Why cannot we humans survive without insects according to Professor Dave Goulson?
A.Humans feed on insects.
B.Insects pollinate most plant species.
C.Humans love and hate insects.
D.Insects are at the centre of all food webs.
【2】What is the main idea of the text?
A.The decline of insects threatens collapse of nature.
B.Insects extinct faster than mammals, birds and reptiles.
C.Insects keep the soil health and control pests.
D.Using pesticides is the main cause of the decline of insects.
【3】How does the author sound in the article?
A.Humorous B.Hopeful C.Worried D.Disappointed
22、We all have heard terrible stories about taking children out on holiday---everything from unfriendly hotels to boring activities. Luckily, this is not likely to be a problem here in Thailand. Now allow me to suggest some special activities to you.
Phuket Aquarium
This has to be an exciting visit for kids of any age. It provides different exhibitions and kids can learn a lot about Southeast Asian freshwater and wildlife. There, you will find a map which can take you to the door, or you can follow the signs to Cape Panwa. Call 0876933965 or go to www.phuketaquarium.org.
Sailing
Phuket Yacht Club offers a Junior Sailing Program on the first three Sundays of every month. To get there from Phuket City, you can follow the Chao Fa East road, turn left at the Aquarium sign and follow the Novotel Cape Panwa signs. If you drive please park your car on the roadside and walk down. Call 0852159185 or e-mail phuketyachtclub@gmail.com.
Phuket Zoo
It’s set in tropical gardens shaded by big trees. The zoo has a large number of workers who can speak several languages. They are happy to answer “why” questions of everyone. If you get hungry on the tour, there are different foods for you, but you must pay for them. For more information, go to www. phuketzoo. com.
Whitewater Rafting
As a small island, Phuket has no rivers, but after a two-hour drive, you can arrive at neighboring Phang Nga Province, where you can enjoy great fun. Go to the whitewater rafting link on www.phuket.net.
【1】What can we learn about Phuket Aquarium?

23、There are plentiful ways to help increase your efficiency. 【1】 But according to time management trainers, employing even one of the strategies can save most people hours each week.
Clarify actual expectations. When you take on a significant task, talk with key participants about what they expect. Perhaps they need a PowerPoint deck; perhaps they don’t. 【2】 By clarifying what’s actually needed and to what level, you can save hours of time on getting tasks done.
【3】 Depending on what you need to accomplish, you can potentially save time by sharing what you’ve done by word of mouth. When you are asked to research a particular topic, instead of writing up a formal presentation, you may accomplish your purposes in less time during a one-on-one discussion. This strategy also works well if you need to communicate about more abstract concepts.
Develop templates (模板) and checklists. To speed up your process on routine items, come up with a template or checklist. You might want templates for activities like putting together reports or presentations. Checklists are valuable for weekly planning or other repeated activities. 【4】You can keep them more systematically, but simply having them recorded in a Word document is sufficient.
Time box your work. Finally, a strategy for doing a good job faster is deciding how much time you will spend on a task, and them sticking to it. If you tend to overinvest in the research stage, you may want to tell yourself you have to stop after one to two hours. Time boxing doesn’t guarantee you’ll finish the work in the assigned time. 【5】
A．Make it a conversation.
B．Communicate with others in time.
C．However, it can definitely help with focus.
D．It means you spend less time and still do a good job.
E．Which strategies work best vary from person to person.
F．Both will save you time on remembering or deciding what to do.
G．Maybe a comprehensive plan is required or just an outline will work.
24、We interviewed two people, one who went from the country to the city and one who did the opposite.
Janet Lincoln is a salesgirl who moved to St. Louis five years ago. Here’s what Janet told us:
“Five years ago I used to live in a small town called Lemon Falls. I grew up and went to high school there. After I graduated I worked in a supermarket. Lemon Falls had a population of about 800 people, and I knew every single one of them. They all knew everything about me, too. You couldn’t do anything without everyone in town knowing about it. The first chance I got I moved to St. Louis and I love it. I don’t know as many people now as I used to, but that’s OK. I have a few good friends, and I see them when I want to. I kind of like being anonymous. I’d never go back to Lemon Falls.”
Troy Henson had the opposite experience. He and his wife, Darla, and their two children moved from St. Louis to Bloomfield three years ago. Here’s what Troy told us:
“The best thing we ever did was get out of St. Louis. Don’t get me wrong; St. Louis is as good a place as any other city, I suppose — if you like cities, that is. We don’t. Both Darla and I grew up in St. Louis. We met at college and got married. Then the kids came along and life got difficult. We didn’t know any of our neighbors. We both had good jobs, but it always seemed like there was never enough money. That all changed when we moved to Bloomfield. I don’t make as much money as I used to, but then we don’t have as many expenses as we did. We know our neighbors. Life is good. We’d never leave Bloomfield.”

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Twenty years ago, my mother, who was in her early eighties at that time, arrived for her regular two-week visit at my home in Chertsey. She lived with my elder brother in Derek most of the time and for ten years had stuck to her habit of going for an hour-long morning walk to keep fit. In Derek, she would walk around a park that is quite close to my brother’s house. Naturally, she was keen to continue her morning walk while with us in Chertsey.
Our preferred park was a 2 km walk from my house and it had a l km walking track. I could not drive her there every day as I had to leave for the office at the same time she wanted to set out. Since there were hardly any footpaths in Chertsey, my mother said she was delighted to walk on the road as she was certain there wouldn’t be much traffic in the morning.
I was less confident so I suggested it would be safer if she changed her walk time to the evening. That way I could take her to the park after work. However, my mother — a determined person — said that she could not change her routine for just a few days and insisted that she would be leaving the house every day at 7 am and returning by 8 am. She started doing this and stuck firmly to her schedule. So one day when she had not returned by 8:30 am, my wife, Qaisa, phoned me in a panic. Worried, I immediately drove home, taking the same route that my mother would have taken for her walk.
Not spotting her anywhere, I went to the police station to report my mother’s disappearance. The station house officer advised me to wait until midnight before filling the report. Since it was only 10 am, I drove back to the park, in the hope of discovering some trace, but in vain. Totally at a loss for what to do next, I returned home and waited impatiently, walking back and forth in the house.

At 11:10 am the doorbell rang and my mother stood outside the door smiling, accompanied by a young woman.
