My English was not good enough to take college-level courses, so I went to Community College in the spring of 2019. I took some ESL courses there. Then I decided to continue working toward a degree.

Once I complete my studies at Community College, I plan to go to Metropolitan State University of Denver to get a degree in business and economics. I am proud to be a student at Community College.

“When I was young, I had so much energy and I loved building things. If I had an idea, I had to build it right now using what I could find around me,” says Danish artist Thomas Dambo. When Dambo was seven years old, he bought a mountain of cushions (垫子) from a nearby market to build a game room in his parents’ house. As a teenager, he built a “crazy” castle in his backyard.
Years later, 42-year-old Dambo is proudly showing his latest work: a giant (巨人) called Little Lui. Five meters tall, Little Lui is one of the six giants placed in the corners of Peel Region of Western Australia, which will be on show for at least a year. This work makes Dambo’s giants up to 99 around the world. His gentle giants have found homes in many different countries, as far as the United States, Belgium, China, Denmark, South Korea and now in Australia.
“For me, giants represent (代表) the voice of nature,” Dambo says. This deep respect for nature is the focus of Dambo’s building works. Dambo’s giants are made almost from local recycled wood: their faces from second-hand furniture and their hair from tree branches and leaves. Taking about 750 hours to complete, each giant is built out in nature.
“I hope by visiting the giants, people will think of rubbish as a resource. I think it’s really important that next generations are connected to nature,” Dambo says. “That’s why I tried to build the giants to attract young people. I want people to be inspired and to realize they don’t need a lot to create something big and beautiful.”
24. Which of the following can best describe young Dambo?
A. Creative. B. Homesick. C. Powerful. D. Frightened.
25. What can we know about Little Lui?
A. It is kept underground. B. It’s Dambo’s first giant.
C. It will be shown to the public. D. It will be sent to Denmark.
26 What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The comments on the giants. B. The appearance of the giants.
C. The basic theme of the giants. D. The expensive materials of the giants.
27. What does Dambo plan to do with his giants?
A. Inspire more people to take adventures.
B. Encourage the young to approach nature.
C. Help people spend less time playing games.
D. Call on the young to save natural resources.

A new trend called “praise groups” or “in-need-of-praise” chat groups has become popular on Chinese social media. In Chinese culture, where modesty (谦逊) is valued, openly seeking and giving praise is uncommon. These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments (赞扬) and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.
To join a praise group, users can pay a fee on e-commerce sites, starting at 50 yuan for five minutes of compliments. The group members will then show the person with praises and kind words. The compliments can be designed for a friend or loved one as well. Participants have found that being praised by strangers can help lift their spirits and improve their self-confidence.
For example, Meng Zha, a student at Shanghai’s Tongji University, tried the service and found it amusing and uplifting. She received compliments on her appearance and even quotes (引用) from popular songs. Ms Meng couldn’t help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.
Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives. It provides a positive and uplifting experience for participants, improving a sense of happiness and self-worth.
Those who support the groups, see them as an antidote to extremely bad moods (情绪) which are often associated with things happening on the Internet.“At first, the purpose of this group is to make us learn to praise others and accept others’ praises confidently. Here we can drop everything, and use our heart to praise and support others,” one member said. But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.
28. What is the purpose of praise groups?
A. To make praise popular. B. To have everyone supported.
C. To share common interests. D. To give people hope and happiness.
29. What can we learn about Meng Zha in paragraph 3?
A. She was not strong enough. B. She was under working stress.
C. She was satisfied with the service. D. She was a gifted singer in her area.
30. What does the underlined word “antidote” mean in the last paragraph?
A. A kind of medicine. B. A way of making new friends.
C. A method of being confident. D. The wisdom of solving problems.
31. What is the author’s attitude to praise groups?
A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一种叫做“夸夸群”的交流形式在中国社交媒体上流行起来,这些聊天群提供了一个平台,让人们能够得到赞美和鼓励。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments (赞扬) and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.”(这些聊天群为人们提供了一个接受赞美和鼓励的平台,而这些在日常生活中往往是缺乏的。)和第四段中“Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives.”(夸夸群的出现,是中国人寻求和接受日常生活中可能缺乏的赞美和鼓励的一种方式。)可推知,夸夸群的目的是给人们带来希望和幸福。故选D项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Ms Meng couldn’t help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.”(孟女士忍不住笑了起来,并表示希望以后也能发表这样高质量的赞扬。)可知,孟对夸夸群的服务是很满意的。故选C项。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词上文“Those who support the groups, see them as an…”以及后文“to extremely bad moods (情绪) which are often associated with things happening on the Internet.”(可以缓解极端糟糕的情绪,这种情绪通常与互联网上发生的事情有关。)由此可知,此处为那些支持这些群的人,认为它们是一种解药。故可猜测划线单词antidote为“解药”的意思,结合选项A项A kind of medicine“一种药”意思相近。故选A项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。主要介绍了一种叫做“夸夸群”的交流形式在中国社交媒体上流行起来,这些聊天群提供了一个平台,让人们能够得到赞美和鼓励。根据最后一段中“But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.”(但是人生的旅程是漫长的,当没有人提供帮助的时候,我们只能依靠自己来面对一些意想不到的情况。)可推知,作者对夸夸群的态度既没有反对,也没有支持,只是客观地做了评价。故选B项。

According to the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), six red wolf pups (幼崽) were found in North Carolina’s Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge last week. That’s great news for endangered red wolves, and marks the first time these pups have been born in the wild since 2020.
Long ago, red wolves lived all through the US Southeast. But as the wolves were hunted, and as more and more land was taken over for cities, roads and farms, the wolves began to die out.
In 1973 a new law called the Endangered Species Act was passed, which was designed to protect animals that were in danger of dying out, like red wolves. At the time, there were only about 17 red wolves remaining in the wild.14 of those wolves were caught and fed by researchers to protect them. Then, the FWS conducted a program called the Red Wolf Recovery Program. But by 1980, red wolves were believed to have been extinct in the wild.
Luckily, the wolves did well under people’s care, and their numbers continued to grow. Soon the FWS began releasing red wolves back into the wild. Those wolves with tracking collars spread out, paired up, and began to have pups. By 2012, red wolf numbers had hit a new high point of about 120 wolves in the wild. The program’s success led to many other programs aimed at bringing animals back from the edge of extinction.
Sadly, though, wild red wolf numbers began to drop again. Some wolves were shot and others were hit by cars. As the number of adults fell. the number of pups being born also began to drop. In 2020, a total of four pups were born in the wild. In 2021, 2022 and 2023, no wild pups were born at all.
So the news that six pups hatched in the wild this year is a huge boost. But the good news isn’t an accident.
32. How did the FWS protect red wolves?
A. It made a new law to protect them. B. It kept them in the wild.
C. It moved them into a new habitat. D. It carried out a recovery program.
33. What is partly responsible for the reduced number of red wolves in recent years? ?
A. The lack of food B. The worsened weather.
C. The illegal hunting. D. The loss of forests.
34. What will be talked about in the following paragraph?
A. The accidents that happened this year. B. The effort the FWS has made.
C. The wishes from the researchers. D. The health condition of the pups.
35. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. Endangered Species Act Taking Effect B. Red Wolf Pups Decreasing in the US
C. Endangered Red Wolf Pups Born in the Wild D. Future Faced by Endangered Red Wolves
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。讲述了六只红狼幼崽在野外出生,这是自从2020年以来第一次有红狼幼崽出生,因为红狼濒临危险,是快要灭绝的动物,所以FWS开展了一个名为红狼恢复计划的项目。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Then, the FWS conducted a program called the Red Wolf Recovery Program. (然后,FWS开展了一个名为红狼恢复计划的项目。)”可知,FWS开展了一项红狼恢复计划来保护红狼。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“But as the wolves were hunted, and as more and more land was taken over for cities, roads and farms, the wolves began to die out. (但是随着狼被猎杀,随着越来越多的土地被城市、道路和农场占据,狼开始灭绝。)”可知,导致红狼濒临灭绝的因素之一是非法猎杀。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“So the news that six pups hatched in the wild this year is a huge boost. But the good news isn’t an accident.(所以今年有六只幼崽在野外孵化的消息是一个巨大的鼓舞。但好消息并非偶然。)”可知,后文会讲述FWS为保护红狼幼崽所做的努力。故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“According to the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), six red wolf pups (幼崽) were found in North Carolina’s Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge last week. That’s great news for endangered red wolves, and marks the first time these pups have been born in the wild since 2020. (据美国鱼类和野生动物管理局(FWS)称,上周在北卡罗来纳州的鳄鱼河国家野生动物保护区发现了六只红狼幼崽。这对濒临灭绝的红狼来说是个好消息,这标志着自2020年以来这些幼狼第一次在野外出生。)”以及通读整篇文章可知,本文讲述的是六只红狼幼崽在野外出生,这是自从2020年以来第一次有红狼幼崽出生。C“野生濒危红狼幼崽出生”符合主题,故选C。

62. lighting
63. and 64. a

【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了中秋节的时间、由来和庆祝活动等。
【56题详解】
考查时态,语态和主谓一致。句意:它是在农历八月十五日庆祝的。它被庆祝,句子用被动语态,且句子描述客观事实,时态用一般现在时,因此空格处是一般现在时的被动语态,主语It是单数,因此空格处是is celebrated。故填is celebrated。
【57题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意:在中国的传说中,月亮在这一天是最亮最圆的。句子描述客观事实,时态是一般现在时,由say是原形可知,空格处用复数,故填legends。
【58题详解】
考查最高级。句意:在中国的传说中,月亮在这一天是最亮最圆的。由and roundest可知,空格处用最高级brightest,故填brightest。
【59题详解】
考查不定式。句意:人们与家人和朋友聚在一起,欣赏代表和谐和团结的明亮的满月。根据语境可知,句子表示“人们与家人和朋友聚在一起,欣赏代表和谐和团结的明亮的满月”,空格处用不定式表目的,故填to admire。
【60题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:人们与家人和朋友聚在一起,欣赏代表和谐和团结的明亮的满月。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词full moon是满月,因此空格处用which引导定语从句,故填which。
【61题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:自古以来,人们就有在中秋节吃月饼的习惯。由Since ancient times可知,句子时态是现在完成时,主语people是复数,因此空格处是have had。故填have had。
【62题详解】
考查动名词。句意:除了赏月,人们还点灯笼,舞狮舞龙,享受文化活动和表演。by是介词,空格处用动名词作宾语,故填lighting。
【63题详解】
考查连词。句意:除了赏月,人们还点灯笼,舞狮舞龙,享受文化活动和表演。空格处和lighting,performing是并列关系,都是作by的宾语,句子是肯定句,因此空格处用and表并列,故填and。
【64题详解】
考查冠词。句意:中秋节是游览中国,体验丰富文化和传统的好时机。time是可数名词单数形式,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,great是辅音音素开头,因此空格处用a,故填a。
【65题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意:中国文化具有如此巨大的影响力,中秋节已传入东亚和东南亚国家。“such+a/an+名词+that”是固定结构,意为“如此……以至于……”,因此空格处用such,故填such。

任务型阅读
Eric was working in a selling business. He had been on the road visiting people for more than a month without going home. He couldn’t wait to get back to see his wife and children. It was coming up on Mother’s Day, and he usually tried to make it “back home”, but this year he was just too busy and too tired. The day when he was driving in a small town, he saw a flower shop. He said to himself, “I know what I will do. I’ll send my mother some roses.”
He stopped and went into the flower shop and saw a young man talking to the girl in it. “How many roses can I get for five dollars, Miss?” the young man asked. The girl was trying to explain that roses were expensive. Maybe the young man would be happy with something else.
“No. I have to have roses,” he said. “My mom was badly sick last year and I didn’t get to spend much time with her. I want to get something special. It has to be red roses, because that is her favorite.” He was stubborn.
The girl in the shop looked up at Eric and was just shaking her head. Something inside of Eric was touched by the boy’s voice. He wanted to get those roses so badly. Eric had been lucky in his business, and he looked at the girl and silently said that he would pay for the young man’s roses.
The girl looked at the young man and said, “OK, I will give you a dozen red roses for your dollars.” The young man almost jumped into the air. He took the flowers and ran down the store. It was worth more than fifty dollars just to see that kind of excitement.
Eric ordered his own flowers and asked the girl to have it delivered to his mother. After that, with a relief he drove down the road. Not long after his driving,he saw the young man walking to a graveyard (墓地).

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了埃里克一直忙于工作没有时间回家看望母亲,在母亲节将来来临之际,他在镇上的花店给母亲买花时,被一位男青年对于母亲的爱和思念所打动,他对自己没有回家看望母亲感到愧疚,决定亲自给母亲送花的故事。
【66题详解】
①考查形容词。根据第一段中“It was coming up on Mother’s Day, and he usually tried to make it “back home”, but this year he was just too busy and too tired. (母亲节快到了,他通常会想办法“回家”,但今年他太忙了,也太累了。)”可知,作者今年太忙太累了而没有在母亲节的时候回家。空处需要形容词tired“劳累的”作表语。故填tired。
②考查形容词性物主代词。根据第一段中“He said to himself, “I know what I will do. I’ll send my mother some roses.” (他对自己说:“我知道我会做什么。我会给我妈妈送一些玫瑰。”)”可知,作者决定送给他妈妈一些玫瑰。空处需要形容词性物主代词his“他的”,作定语。故填his。
③考查动词。根据第二段“He stopped and went into the flower shop and saw a young man talking to the girl in it. “How many roses can I get for five dollars, Miss?” the young man asked. (他停下来走进花店,看到一个年轻人在和里面的女孩说话。“小姐,五美元能买到多少朵玫瑰?”年轻人问道)”可知,作者在花店看到一个男士正试着用五美元买玫瑰花。空处需要动词try“尝试”,空处需要非谓语动词作宾语补足语,该动词和宾语之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词作宾语补足语。故填trying。
④考查动词。根据第二段“The girl was trying to explain that roses were expensive. (女孩试图解释玫瑰很贵。)”可知,女孩正在尽量解释玫瑰花很贵。空处需要动词explain“解释”。try to do sth.“尽量作某事”。故填to explain。
⑤考查名词。根据第三段“I want to get something special. It has to be red roses,because that is her favorite. (我想买点特别的。一定是红玫瑰,因为那是她的最爱。)”可知,红玫瑰是男士妈妈的最爱。由此可知,他坚持他妈妈的最爱是红玫瑰。空处需要名词favorite“特别喜爱的人(或物)”。故填favorite。
⑥考查副词。根据第三段““No. I have to have roses, ” he said. “My mom was badly sick last year and I didn’t get to spend much time with her. (“不,我必须要玫瑰,”他说。“我妈妈去年病得很重,我没有太多时间陪她。”)”可知,男士的妈妈病的很重。由此可推知,他想要送给他妈妈红玫瑰是由于他妈妈病的很重。空处需要副词badly“严重地”,修饰形容词。故填badly。
⑦考查动词。根据第四段“Something inside of Eric was touched by the boy’s voice. (男孩的声音触动了埃里克的内心。)”可知,男孩的声音触动了埃里克的内心。由此可知,Eric被男孩的声音感动,决定给男孩买玫瑰花。空处需要动词touch“感动”,在句中作谓语,句子为一般过去时态,和主语之间为被动关系,所以用一般过去时态的被动语态,主语为第三人称单数形式。故填was touched。
⑧考查名词。根据倒数第二段“The young man almost jumped into the air. He took the flowers and ran down the store. It was worth more than fifty dollars just to see that kind of excitement. (那个年轻人几乎跳到空中。他拿着花沿着商店跑去。光是看到那种刺激就值五十多美元了。)”可知,男人因为能够买到玫瑰花而非常的兴奋。由此可知,男人兴奋地拿着玫瑰花离开了。空处需要名词excitement“兴奋”,和前面的介词in构成介词短语,在句中作状语。故填excitement。
⑨考查动词。根据最后一段“Eric ordered his own flowers and asked the girl to have it delivered to his mother. (埃里克订购了自己的花,并要求女孩把它送到他的母亲。)”可知,作者订了花并让女孩送到了母亲那。空处需要动词deliver“投递”。空处需要非谓语动词作宾语补足语,该动词和宾语之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词。故填delivered。
⑩考查动词。根据最后一段“After that, with a relief he drove down the road. Not long after his driving,he saw the young man walking to a graveyard (墓地). (在那之后,他如释重负地开车上路。开车后不久,他看到那个年轻人走向墓地。)”可知,买完花后,作者开车上路了。空处需要动词drive“驾驶”,在句中作谓语。句子是对过去事实的描述,所以用一般过去时态。故填drove。
【67题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“It was coming up on Mother’s Day, and he usually tried to make it “back home”, but this year he was just too busy and too tired. (母亲节快到了,他通常会想办法“回家”,但今年他太忙了,也太累了。)”可知,母亲节对于作者来说就是回家拜访母亲,在那一天表示对母亲的爱。故答案为It was a time to visit his mother and show his love for her.
【68题详解】
细节理解题。倒数第二段“ It was worth more than fifty dollars just to see that kind of excitement. (光是看到这种兴奋就值50多美元)”可知,作者帮助了男士后,感觉看到男士是如此兴奋,他觉得很值。故答案为He felt it was worth more than fifty dollars just to see the young man’s excitement.
【69题详解】
开放题。本题为开放题,答案不唯一,合理即可。题目问“Eric 看到这个年轻人走向墓地后会怎么做?”。可以回答“他或许在母亲节亲自回家看望母亲”。visit his mother“拜访他的母亲”,the coming Mother’s Day“即将到来的母亲节”,in person“亲自”。故答案为He might visit his mother on the coming Mother’s Day in person.(答案不唯一)

“When I was young I had so much energy and I loved building things. If I had an idea, I had to build it right now using what I could find around me,” says Danish artist Thomas Dambo. When Dambo was seven years old, he bought a mountain of cushions (垫子) from a nearby market to build a game room in his parents’ house. As a teenager, he built a “crazy” castle in his backyard.
Years later, 42-year-old Dambo is proudly showing his latest work: a giant (巨人) called Little Lui. Five meters tall, Little Lui is one of the six giants placed in the corners of Peel Region of Western Australia, which will be on show for at least a year. This work makes Dambo’s giants up to 99 around the world. His gentle giants have found homes in many different countries, as far as the United States, Belgium, China, Denmark, South Korea and now in Australia.
“For me, giants represent (代表) the voice of nature,” Dambo says. This deep respect for nature is the focus of Dambo’s building works. Dambo’s giants are made almost from local recycled wood: their faces from second-hand furniture and their hair from tree branches and leaves. Taking about 750 hours to complete, each giant is built out in nature.
“I hope by visiting the giants, people will think of rubbish as a resource. I think it’s really important that next generations are connected to nature,” Dambo says. “That’s why I tried to build the giants to attract young people. I want people to be inspired and to realize they don’t need a lot to create something big and beautiful.”
24. Which of the following can best describe young Dambo?
A. Creative. B. Homesick. C. Powerful. D. Frightened.
25. What can we know about Little Lui?
A. It is kept underground. B. It’s Dambo’s first giant.
C. It will be shown to the public. D. It will be sent to Denmark.
26. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The comments on the giants. B. The appearance of the giants.
C. The basic theme of the giants. D. The expensive materials of the giants.
27. What does Dambo plan to do with his giants?
A. Inspire more people to take adventures.
B Encourage the young to approach nature.
C. Help people spend less time playing games.
D. Call on the young to save natural resources.

A new trend called “praise groups” or “in-need-of-praise” chat groups has become popular on Chinese social media. In Chinese culture, where modesty (谦逊) is valued, openly seeking and giving praise is uncommon. These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments (赞扬) and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.
To join a praise group, users can pay a fee on e-commerce sites, starting at 50 yuan for five minutes of compliments. The group members will then show the person with praises and kind words. The compliments can be designed for a friend or loved one as well. Participants have found that being praised by strangers can help lift their spirits and improve their self-confidence.
For example, Meng Zha, a student at Shanghai’s Tongji University, tried the service and found it amusing and uplifting. She received compliments on her appearance and even quotes (引用) from popular songs. Ms Meng couldn’t help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.
Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives. It provides a positive and uplifting experience for participants, improving a sense of happiness and self-worth.
Those who support the groups, see them as an antidote to extremely bad moods (情绪) which are often associated with things happening on the Internet.“At first, the purpose of this group is to make us learn to praise others and accept others’ praises confidently. Here we can drop everything, and use our heart to praise and support others,” one member said. But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.
28. What is the purpose of praise groups?
A. To make praise popular. B. To have everyone supported.
C. To share common interests. D. To give people hope and happiness.
29. What can we learn about Meng Zha in paragraph 3?
A. She was not strong enough. B. She was under working stress.
C. She was satisfied with the service. D. She was a gifted singer in her area.
30. What does the underlined word “antidote” mean in the last paragraph?
A. A kind of medicine. B. A way of making new friends.
C. A method of being confident. D. The wisdom of solving problems.
31. What is the author’s attitude to praise groups?
A. Critical. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent.

According to the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), six red wolf pups (幼崽) were found in North Carolina’s Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge last week. That’s great news for endangered red wolves, and marks the first time these pups have been born in the wild since 2020.
Long ago, red wolves lived all through the US Southeast. But as the wolves were hunted, and as more and more land was taken over for cities, roads and farms, the wolves began to die out.
In 1973, a new law called the Endangered Species Act was passed, which was designed to protect animals that were in danger of dying out, like red wolves. At the time, there were only about 17 red wolves remaining in the wild.14 of those wolves were caught and fed by researchers to protect them. Then, the FWS conducted a program called the Red Wolf Recovery Program. But by 1980, red wolves were believed to have been extinct in the wild.
Luckily, the wolves did well under people’s care, and their numbers continued to grow. Soon the FWS began releasing red wolves back into the wild. Those wolves with tracking collars spread out, paired up, and began to have pups. By 2012, red wolf numbers had hit a new high point of about 120 wolves in the wild. The program’s success led to many other programs aimed at bringing animals back from the edge of extinction.
Sadly, though, wild red wolf numbers began to drop again. Some wolves were shot and others were hit by cars. As the number of adults fell. the number of pups being born also began to drop. In 2020, a total of four pups were born in the wild. In 2021, 2022 and 2023, no wild pups were born at all.
So the news that six pups hatched in the wild this year is a huge boost. But the good news isn’t an accident.
32. How did the FWS protect red wolves?
A. It made a new law to protect them. B. It kept them in the wild.
C. It moved them into a new habitat. D. It carried out a recovery program.
33. What is partly responsible for the reduced number of red wolves in recent years? ?
A. The lack of food B. The worsened weather.
C. The illegal hunting. D. The loss of forests.
34. What will be talked about in the following paragraph?
A. The accidents that happened this year. B. The effort the FWS has made.
C. The wishes from the researchers. D. The health condition of the pups.
35. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. Endangered Species Act Taking Effect B. Red Wolf Pups Decreasing in the US
C. Endangered Red Wolf Pups Born in the Wild D. Future Faced by Endangered Red Wolves

He said to himself, “I know what I will do. I’ll send my mother some roses.”
He stopped and went into the flower shop and saw a young man talking to the girl in it. “How many roses can I get for five dollars, Miss?” the young man asked. The girl was trying to explain that roses were expensive. Maybe the young man would be happy with something else.
“No. I have to have roses,” he said. “My mom was badly sick last year and I didn’t get to spend much time with her. I want to get something special. It has to be red roses, because that is her favorite.” He was stubborn.
