Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Reese was a 13yearold senior dog who liked nothing more than to love her human. Unfortunately, while that love was returned to Reese, her owner just didn't have the time to care for her.So, the family did the only thing they could think of. They took Reese and dropped her off in a stranger's yard with a note tied to her rope, explaining their situation at that time.Hopefully, this “new owner”would be able to give Reese a better life.
It wasn't that Reese's previous owner didn't want the dog. It's just that they didn't have the time to take care of a senior dog. They didn't think it was fair to keep Reese around when they had four young kids to take care of, let alone Reese wasn't exactly fond of kids. All she wanted to do was lie around and love her human—her fully grown human.
Instead of bringing Reese to a shelter, her owner chose to do something a bit unusual. They brought Reese to a stranger's house and, without even knocking on the door,left her in the yard and drove away.
But the stranger's front lawn couldn't keep the senior dog either. They weren't going to do the same thing as the dog's previous owner, though. The stranger was going to take steps to make sure that Reese found a forever home that loved her.
Not really knowing where to start,the stranger went to Facebook,posting in a private group about their unusual situation.At the very least,they hoped someone could point them in the right direction.Then again,at the very best,maybe someone would want to take Reese in!
Robyn Klein was an old lady and agreed to take Reese into her home.When Robyn took in Reese,she introduced the senior dog to her mother,Suzy Reeves.It was pretty much love the moment she saw Reese.Suzy just had a feeling that there was something special about the dog,and she was ready for another companion(陪伴).
1.What might the note tied to Reese be about?
A.Directions for how to feed the dog.
B.Reasons for giving up the dog.
C.The problems with the dog.
D.Requirements for sending the dog to a shelter.
2.Which might be one of the reasons for the dog's being sent away?
A.It became a danger to the children.
B.It was too old to take care of itself.
C.It failed to get along well with kids.
D.It needed a larger living space.
3.What was the stranger's greatest wish when turning to the Internet?
A.To find the homeless dog a new home.
B.To find out the dog's previous owner.
C.To ask for advice on dealing with the dog.
D.To search for information on raising a dog.
4.Who fell in love with the senior dog at first sight?
A.The stranger. B.Robyn Klein.
C.Its original owner. D.Suzy Reeves.

In the last 100 years, the global temperature has gone up by around 0.75 ℃.This may not sound like much, but an increase of 2 ℃ in global temperatures could result in extinction for 30% of the world's land species.
On account of the changing climate, the world's ecosystems are also changing faster.More than onethird of the world's mangroves (红树林)and around 20% of the world's coral reefs(珊瑚礁)have been destroyed in the last few decades.Due to the higher temperatures and higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, plants are producing more pollen(花 粉), which could lead to more cases of asthma, a medical condition which makes it hard to breathe.
What is causing climate change? It seems that the main cause is the huge amount of greenhouse gases, such as CH4 and CO2,but the real reason for this is that the world's population increases and more land is needed to provide food and energy.Burning fossil fuels for heating, lighting, transport,electricity or manufacturing produces CO2.By cutting down trees, we are increasing the amount of CO2 and reducing the amount of oxygen.As a result of human activities, CO2 levels are now at their highest in 800, 000 years.
The biggest challenge we all face is to prevent further environmental disasters.We must do something before it is too late.We need to reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.We need to stop burning fossil fuels and start using renewable energy.We can get enough energy from renewable fuels, such as solar energy or wind power to stop using fossil fuels completely.
