Because the main purpose of the puppy factory is to make money, puppy factory owners don’t spend enough money on the dogs. To save money, they keep dogs in packed cages. The animals almost never get exercise or attention. Their cages are often dirty, with little protection from sun, wind or cold. Many puppies born in puppy factories are taken away from their mothers before they are ready. Then they are shipped cross-country to be sold in pet shops. The moms left behind are then bred (繁殖) again to produce more puppies. Many of the dogs born in puppy factories have serious health problems. Although the puppies may seem healthy, these problems can show up when they’re fully grown sometimes even sooner. Some of the puppies die within days or weeks of purchase (购买). Kind kids and their families can help. In the future, don’t buy puppies from pet stores. Even if a pet store says that they don’t sell dogs from puppy factories, chances are they really do. And don’t trust newspaper or website ads made by people who sell puppies. If your family is ready for a dog, your best choice is to adopt (收养) one from an animal shelter (收容所).

There are currently two desert farms in the world where quality vegetables are being planted cheaply and easily. Sundrop Farms, based in South Australia, uses experimental greenhouses to grow tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. The biggest challenge of growing food in a desert, obviously, is the lack of available water. The researchers at Sundrop Farms have gotten around this problem by using the sun to desalinate（淡化）sea water. It can also be used to control the temperature of the greenhouses. Without depending on limited resources such as land and fresh water, Sundrop Farms has made farming a practice. This can increase the world’s food supplies. Another benefit of this kind of farming is that it can be done anywhere, thus reducing the costs of transporting food to distant locations. Yet another benefit is that it reduces the need for pesticides（杀虫剂）. Another experimental desert farm is the Sahara Forest Project, which began in Qatar in December 2012. Greenhouses in the farm are cooled by saltwater. Solar power and other technologies are used together to help make vegetation（植被）grow in the desert environment. As deserts have expanded over recent years around the world due to global warming, this project could solve the problem. The result form the Qatar project were better than expected and in June of 2014, Jordan agreed to host another one. This will be much bigger than the Qatar project and the project members will have even more opportunities to test their experiments on a much larger scale. It is not clear yet that desert farming represents the future of farming but these projects have shown some success in the field. 18．What does “this problem” in paragraph 2 refer to? A．Sea water is hard to purify. B．The desert is short of water. C．The temperature is high in the desert. D．Desert farms aren’t fit to plant vegetables. 19．What is one of the characters of desert farming? A．It needs more pesticides. B．It saves delivery costs. C．It has a location limit. D．It solves food waste problems. 20．What can we know about the Sabara Forest Project? A．It lives up to expectations. B．It can help produce more food. C．It is started to prevent global warming. D．It uses technology to produce saltwater. 21．What can be inferred about desert farming from the last paragraph? A．It still has problems to solve. B．It represents the future of farming. C．Its early success has aroused interest in it. D．Its aim is to create more job opportunities. （22-23八年级上·广东广州·单元测试）① Zoos are very popular with adults and children. But are zoos actually a good thing? ②Some people criticize keeping animals in zoos. In their opinion, animals often suffer a lot for being enclosed. Even the best zoos can’t provide the environment that animals have in the wild. It’s a pity that the animals living in the wild are caught, and then kept away from their families. This leads many zoo animals to feel nervous or sad. What’s worse, some zoo animals may even die earlier than their wild relatives. ③However, some people have different ideas. They think zoos can connect people with animals, educate the public to protect animals and call on people to save animals as well as their homes. Some zoos offer a safe place to those animals which have been badly treated. Also, to support international breeding program, zoos have special programs to produce more young animals, especially for the species (物种) which are in danger of dying out. In the wild, some of the endangered species have trouble in finding partners and having new baby animals. A good zoo will provide a safe environment for these species. Moreover, zoos also do research into animal behavior and how to treat their illnesses. ④So, are zoos good or not? It depends on how good the zoo is. It’s sure that zoos have more advantages than their harmful effects.

They look very much like squirrels (松鼠), but they spend much of their time on the ground. People name this animal chipmunk because they make the special chip-chip sound. There are as many as 25 kinds of chipmunks, and most live in North America. A wild chipmunk can live for 2 to 5 years. Chipmunks are very small, and they enjoy living alone. When they are two months old, they leave their mothers to live by themselves. They build their own homes and start collecting food there all by themselves.

Chipmunks may not be as popular as pet dogs or pet cats, but they can be good ones. They can feed on many things from vegetables and fruits to nuts (坚果) and bird eggs.

The number of mosquitoes isn’t high if a city has many cold days and nights. But if the city has a lot of rain and the weather is warm, there are a lot of mosquitoes. Well, when the weather gets about 32℃, they will become less active. When the air is dry and windy, it is also hard for them to live. Even the Arctic (北极地区) has a large number of mosquitoes. During summer, the temperature of some places there can be over 30℃. It is comfortable for mosquitoes to live there. Also, mosquitoes have few enemies (敌人) in the Arctic. They can grow bigger than those in other places. ▲ That is Iceland. The weather there is quite hard for mosquitoes to live. Usually, the adult mosquitoes lay eggs (产卵) in water or near it. If the weather is hot enough, the baby mosquitoes will become adult mosquitoes soon. However, the weather is cool even in summer in Iceland. And because the weather changes a lot, the eggs of mosquitoes can’t grow up. 30．What can we learn about mosquitoes from Paragraph 1? A．Their different sizes. B．Their favourite food.

Bird-building strikes happen at all hours of the day, but the reason behind it is different during the day from it is at night. During the day birds often fly into windows and tall buildings covered by glass. Most of the time, birds live in the wild, such as forests and wetlands. These birds have no idea what glass is. They might see small trees and flowers inside a window and want to rest on these plants. They are unaware of the glass between them and the plants. As a result, they fly right into the glass. At night, the light in the buildings attracts birds. Many migratory birds fly at night, and for reasons scientists do not yet fully understand, the light at night can cause birds to change their flight path. This is especially true on foggy days. Luckily, there are a few things you can do to help stop it. The best thing you can do is choose bird-friendly glass. There are also some less expensive ways to make your windows more visible(可见的) to birds. Even something as simple as closing your curtains(窗帘) will prevent birds from hitting windows. Turning off the lights at night helps cut down on the number of birds that fly into buildings and it also helps save energy. And if your windows have screens on them, they will go a long way in stopping birds strikes. 35．What’s the reason for bird-building strikes during the day? A．Glass. B．Wind. C．Sound. D．Rain. 36．Why do birds hit windows at night? A．Because they are looking for food. B．Because the light catches their attention. C．Because they are tired and want to have a rest. D．Because the window is a good place for hiding. 37．What does the underlined word “prevent” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．punish B．stop C．encourage D．challenge. 38．What can you do to help stop birds flying into windows? A．Open the curtains. B．Buy expensive glass. C．Grow small plants. D．Keep lights off at night. 39．In which part of a magazine can we probably read this passage? A．Science. B．Travel. C．Nature.
