AYears ago, many zoos kept all kinds of animals in small cages. Small cages made it easy for people to see the animals, but a small cage is not a good place for an animal to live in.Today zoos keep animals in different kinds of cages. The cages are very big and open. They usually have plants and a little lake. The cages look like the animals' habitats (栖息地)．Zoos help to protect all kinds of animals.They protect animals in the zoo and they protect animals in the wild. How do they do this? Zoos teach people how animals live in the wild. Zoos want people to help protect the animals' wild habitats.Many plants and animals are going extinct. Mammoths, which are related with Asia elephants, are now extinct. There are no mammoths in the world today. Scientists say that seventy­four different kinds of living things go extinct every day!Zoos are working together to stop animals from going extinct.21．Zoos kept animals in small cages so that people can ________.A．protect them B．see them betterC．feed them D．save them22．Today, zoos keep animals ________.A．in bigger cages B．in the wildC．in smaller cages D．in the field23．An animal or a plant that is going extinct ________.A．no longer exists (存在) in the worldB．comes into this world soonC．becomes very dangerousD．has fewer and fewer living membersBScientists have recently discovered that animals that live in groups, such as elephants, foxes, and wolves, are more likely to follow rules. If they don't, and each does its own thing, the group will probably break apart. Group members would be forced to live alone, and would have a harder time hunting and raising their young. That's probably why a traveling wolf pack was seen stopping and waiting for its limping (跛行的) leader to catch up. Similar social ties are believed to be responsible for an elephant saving her friend from drowning.Sometimes, though, animals try their best to do what's right, even when there's nothing in it for them. Nobody knows exactly why. “It might simply feel good to be kind, just as it does for humans.” says Bekoff. If your friend wasn't nice to you, what would you do? Maybe you would just walk away. That's exactly what a wild red fox did when she was playing boxing with another fox.Toby was a generous cat. For ten years, the kind kitty shared his food with a spaniel (长耳狗) named Katie. After supper, owner Linda Gustafson always divided the food. She'd drop some in Katie's bowl on the floor and some in Toby's dish on the kitchen counter. Gustafson kept the cat's dish up high to keep Katie from stealing Toby's treats. As it turned out, Katie didn't need to steal; she only had to beg. Every night, the spaniel ate her food in a few seconds. Then she'd sit and stare at the cat and every night, Toby would be nice. Using his paw, he'd get several pieces of tasty food down to the waiting dog. Apparently, Katie appreciated it, because whenever she was curled up in her beanbag bed and the cat walked over, she would give up her nice, warm spot. “Toby would then lie down in the center of the beanbag，” says Gustafson, “and Katie would lie on the floor.”24．The reason why some animals prefer to live in groups lies in that ________.A．they have to follow natural rulesB．they are afraid of staying aloneC．they cannot find food by themselvesD．living alone would make their lives harder25．According to Bekoff, animals try their best to do what's right because ________.A．it feels good to be kindB．animals are friendly by natureC．they have learned to do so for a long timeD．they want their owners to like them26．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________________________________________________________________________.A．Linda always lets the animals eat togetherB．Katie sometimes gets her food by stealingC．Toby is generous but Katie isn'tD．Katie and Toby help each other27．The passage mainly tells us that ________.A．we should protect animals and live with them peacefullyB. animals，like humans，can be connected by friendly social tiesC. rules only exist in human societies and not in animal societiesD. animals will make the world more beautiful and peacefulCLanguages have been coming and going for thousands of years，but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going.When the world was still populated by hunter­gatherers，small，tightly knit (联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other.Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago，when the world had just five to ten million people，they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards，many of those people started settling down to become farmers，and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number.In recent centuries，trade，industrialisation，the development of the nation­state and the spread of universal compulsory education，especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades，all have caused many languages to disappear，and dominant languages such as English，Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present，the world has about 6,800 languages.The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven.The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages，often spoken by many people，while hot，wet zones have lots，often spoken by small numbers.Europe has only around 200 languages；the Americas about 1,000；Africa 2,400；and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200，of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800.The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000，which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction (消亡)，with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick，at random，Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers)，Chiapaneco in Mexico (150)，Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one，with a question­mark)：none of these seems to have much chance of survival.28．What can we infer about languages in hunter­gatherer times?A．They developed very fast.B．They were large in number.C．They had similar patterns.D．They were closely connected.29．Which of the following best explains “dominant” underlined in paragraph2?A．Complex. B．Advanced.C．Powerful. D．Modern.30．How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A．About 6,800. B．About 3,400.C．About 2,400. D．About 1,200.31．What is the main idea of the text?A．New languages will be created.B．People's lifestyles are reflected in languages.C．Human development results in fewer languages.D．Geography determines language evolution.DAs scientists in the Netherlands tried to figure out how to build a super flying robot, they learned from one of nature's flyers: the humble fruit fly. And by building this robot, they've gained new understanding of how the fly carries out one of its dangerous tasks.The robot is called the DelFly Nimble. Its wingspan (翼展) is about a foot wide. It has four wings that can beat at 17 times per second, which appear very delicate because they're made of the same material as space blankets.“In previous designs, they always had a tail, like a traditional airplane tail，” said the robot's main designer Matej Karasek. He's based at the Micro Air Vehicle Laboratory at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, and he and his colleagues published their findings on Thursday in Science.“In previous generations，” he said, “f lapping wings drove the robot forward while the tail helped to guide and stabilise (稳定) it. But now the DelFly Nimble is completely controlled by the wings.” “The challenge then was actually combining the control into the wing movement, and that's what we achieved，” Karasek said.“In the latest generation, the wings can each move individually or rotate (旋转) around the body of the robot. The robot can remain in one place in the air for about five minutes on a full battery or fly for more than a kilometre，” K arasek said, “and because the scientists are controlling all the movements, they can use the robot to learn more about how fruit flies actually carry out their dangerous tasks, which has caught the attention of biologists. ”32．Where did scientists get the creative idea of the flying robot?A．From a fruit fly. B．From the birds' wings.C．From some fruit. D．From an airplane.33．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 probably refer to?A．A full battery. B．A flapping wing.C．The DelFly Nimble. D．The humble fruit fly.34．What interests biologists most about fruit flies?A．That they are very tiny insects.B．How they conduct challenging tasks.C．Why they can be easily found in the world.D．That they have light wings and fly quickly.35．Where is the text probably taken from?A．A research paper. B．A travel brochure.C．A health magazine. D．A chemistry textbook.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)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，选项中有两项为多余选项。
