AIt's 4 a．m., and Danilo C. Dequina is already awake. Holding a flashlight and a bucket, he is walking in the pre－dawn darkness along the shore of Old Poblacion Beach in the town of Maitum, Sarangani, in the far south of the Philippines.A few minutes later, he spots a patch of sand that appears to have been disturbed by a turtle. Dequina studies the area carefully, figuring out where the eggs have been buried, and then starts digging slowly. After clearing away several centimeters of sand, he uncovers a large group of eggs, roughly the size of ping－pong balls. He picks them up and puts them in the bucket.Dequina carries the eggs to his hatchery (孵化所), some 50 meters away from the seashore. The hatchery is really just a sandy patch of land under the coconut trees enclosed by a black fence. It is here that he buries the turtle eggs he has collected. Today, Dequina scoops a hole, puts the eggs in it, and covers them with sand. After 45 to 70 days, the eggs will hatch. Dequina will then carry the hatchlings to the shore, and release them into the sea. He admits to feeling sorrow as he sets the hatchlings free—most are hunted down by natural predators, and just one percent survive to adulthood.According to the Philippine Department of Environment and Natural Resources(DENR), eight species of sea turtles face extinction, including four that come to the shores of Sarangani to lay their eggs—the Hawksbill, Olive Ridley, Loggerhead and Green Turtles.After learning about their plight (困境), Dequina attended a DENR training session on turtle conservation and decided to take action. He helped the local government to set up the Pawikan Nesting Sanctuary next to his house in 2003.The hatchery drew the attention of the locals. “They started to change their attitudes towards sea turtles，”52－year－old Dequina says. “If they see turtle eggs, they will either bring them to me or inform me of the nesting places.”Over the past ten years, more than 3，000 hatchlings have been released to the ocean.()11.Dequina walks along the shore to ________．A. release small turtlesB. bury turtle eggs deeperC. look for newly laid turtle eggsD. clear away trash from the seaside()12.When Dequina finds turtle eggs along the shore, he will ________．A. put them into the sea instantlyB. just bury themC. pick them up and put them in the bucketD. break them()13.What is the attitude of local people toward Dequina's efforts?A.

In order to reduce air pollution and oil－shortages, automobile manufacturers have announced their plans to develop hybrid vehicles (混合燃料汽车) for the Chinese market. Toyota's hybrid car Prius will be ready to drive in China this week. Let's have a look at the new car.Any vehicle is a hybrid when it combines two or more sources of power. Hybrid cars run off a rechargeable battery and gasoline. Hybrid cars have special engines, which are smaller than traditional gasoline engines. They run at 99 percent of their power when the car is cruising (匀速行驶). A specially designed battery motor provides extra power for running up hills or when extra acceleration(加速) is needed.Step into a Prius, and turn on the engine. The first thing you notice is how much quieter it is than a traditional car. At this point, the car's gasoline engine is dormant (休眠). The electric motor will provide power until the car reaches about 24 km/h. If you stay at a low speed, you are effectively driving an electric car, with no gasoline being used, and no waste gas gives off.The onboard (车载的) computer makes the decision about when to use a gas engine, when to go electric, and when to use a combination of the two. If you go over 24 km/h, when you step on the gas pedal (油门), you are actually telling the computer how fast you want to go.The electronic motor recharges automatically using a set of batteries. When driving at high speed, the gasoline engine not only powers the car, but also charges the batteries. Any time you use the brake, the electric motor in the wheels will work like a generator(发电机) and produce electricity to recharge the batteries. As a consequence, the car's batteries will last for around 200，000 miles.()15.The author writes this passage mainly to ________．A. teach people how to drive a hybrid carB. introduce a new kind of “green”carC. show how to save their gasoline when driving a carD. announce plans to develop hybrid vehicles for China()16.The first sentence probably refers to ________．A. there will be more and more green land in ChinaB. China is still young and lacking experienceC. China's new cars are combinations of different green modelsD. China has started producing environmentally friendly cars()17.Which of the followings is NOT true?A. The hybrid cars reduce air pollution and oil－shortages.B. The car's gasoline engine doesn't work until it reaches about 24 km/h.C. This kind of car is completely controlled by an onboard computer.D. A specially designed battery motor provides extra power when needed.()18.What is the MOST important feature of hybrid cars?A. They are powered by both a rechargeable battery and gasoline.B. They are much quieter than traditional cars.C. They only use 99 percent of their power to run up hills.D. They have smaller engines than traditional gasoline ones.三、根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
