Q: What does the man think about the test? (D) Section B Directions: In Section B, you will hear two short passages and one longer conversation, and you will be asked several questions on each of the passages and the conversation. The passages and the conversation will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard. Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage. When my family moved to America from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States. I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. Once, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry. In the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respected the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear. After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them anymore; I still respect them, but now I don’t show my feelings through words. Questions: 11. Why did the speaker bring the couple their food very fast? (B) 12. What happened to the speaker after this experience? (D) 13. Which of the following statements is true? (C) Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage For many well-educated, rich Chinese travellers, buying a copy of Lonely Planet is the first task before taking a vacation abroad. Founded in 1973, Lonely Planet is the biggest guidebook series in the US, UK, and Australia. It’s published in 11 languages including Chinese. But when the BBC confirmed on March 19 that it had sold the entire Lonely Planet series to American billionaire at a significant financial loss, many commented that the deal signified the final song for the printed guidebook. The rise of the Internet and the popularity of smartphones has become a burden on the print media. Why would a traveller bring a heavy guidebook when he can download its digital content to his smartphone in an instant? Furthermore, alternative and free travel content is readily available on the Internet, from Wikivoyage to Trip Advisor to blogs written by amateur travel writers. “If you’re in your 20s or 30s, the first place you’re going to go for travel information is a social network,” said Howard Blumenthal, who writes the Digital Insider blog. With so many people contributing content, you don’t have to go to Fodor’s to get hotel information because there’s Trip Advisor and its competitors. But the Internet is not the only reason that guidebooks are in decline. Kevin Rushby, author of four travel books said that the main problem with the guidebook is that it has a comprehensiveness that can kill any sense of personal exploration. Questions: 14. What did the sale of Lonely Planet mean? (B) 15. What is the first source of travel information for young people? (A) 16. What is the main problem of travel guidebooks? (B) Questions 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation M: Hello. W: May I speak to Daniel, please? M: Speaking. W: Hi. My name is Betty. And I’m calling about the room for rent. I saw your ad at the campus housing office. M: Oh, right. OK. Are you a student? W: Well, I’m planning to start college in English in March. M: I see. Where are you living now? W: I’ve been living in a house with other students, but I don’t like it then. M: Why? What’s the problem? W: Well. First of all, it’s really noisy. And it’s not very clean. I need a place that’s cleaner and more private. M: Well. It’s really quiet here. W: By the way, who’s Jeff? His name is also in the ad. M: He’s my cousin. He’s a musician, but he also takes classes in computer programming. He’s really easy to live with. W: OK. Is the neighbourhood safe? M: Oh, sure. This area’s crime rate is the lowest in the city. W: Well, it sounds really nice. When can I come by and have a look? M: Can you make it this evening around five. Then you can meet Jeff, too. W: OK, five o’clock is good. What’s the address? M: It’s 5743 Sunrise Avenue. W: OK. See you later. M: See you. Questions: 17. Where did Betty see Daniel’s ad? (B) 18. What does Betty major in? (D) 19. What’s Betty’s expectations of the new place? (C) 20. What can we infer from the conversation? (A) II.

(运用了关系代词which引导限制性定语从句) [高分句型2] Another reason is hunting and fishing for animals’ fur, bones or skin, and sometimes sport. (运用了动名词短语作表语) V. Translation (3+3+4+5=15 points) 1．The new policy applies to all departments of the company. 【详解】考查动词短语和名词。表示“新政策”用名词短语The new policy，作主语；表示“适用于”用动词短语apply to，描述客观事实用一般现在时，且主语是单数，此处用applies to，作谓语；表示“公司的所有部门”短语为all departments of the company，作宾语，故翻译为The new policy applies to all departments of the company. 2．It is worthwhile to spend a whole day exploring this ancient town./It is worthwhile spending a whole day exploring this ancient town. 【详解】考查固定句型和动名词。句子陈述事实，用一般现在时；表示“做某事是值得的”用固定句型It is worthwhile to do sth.... 或It is worthwhile doing sth....；表示“花一整天时间”用spend a whole day，spend用动名词形式或不定式形式均可；表示“游览这座古镇”用“explore this ancient town”。故翻译为It is worthwhile to spend a whole day exploring this ancient town./It is worthwhile spending a whole day exploring this ancient town. 3．He was diagnosed with malaria and the doctor advised/told him to take more rest. 【详解】考查非谓语动词、固定短语。表示“他”用he，作主语，位于句首，首字母大写。表示“诊断患上（某种疾病）”用be diagnosed with，句子陈述过去发生的事情，时态用一般过去时，且主语为he，be动词用was；表示“疟疾”用malaria，作with的宾语。表示“医生”用the doctor，作and后句子的主语。表示“建议/告诉某人做某事”用advise/tell sb. to do sth.，句子陈述过去发生的事情，时态用一般过去时，所以谓语用advise/tell的过去式advised/told。表示“他”用him，作advise/tell的宾语。表示“多休息”have more rest，作宾补，用不定式形式。故翻译为He was diagnosed with malaria and the doctor advised/told him to take/have more rest. 4．It gradually dawned on the young architect that there was no shortcut to success, and the key to making some achievements/establishing himself/getting/becoming established in this industry was diligence/hard work and down-to-earth effort. =It gradually dawned on the young architect that there was no shortcut to success, and if he wanted to make some achievements/establish himself/get/become established in this industry, the key was diligence/hard work and down-to-earth effort/is to be diligent/hard-working and down-to-earth. 【详解】考查固定句型、时态、名词、名词短语和形容词。分析汉语句子，全句可以划分为两个大的层次，“这位年轻的建筑师渐渐明白”为一个层次，其后的内容为另一个层次。根据提示词，表示“某人明白……”可使用固定句型It dawned on sb. that…，其中It为形式主语，that之后的内容为真正主语，句子描述的是过去发生的事，动词dawn用一般过去时。“这位年轻的建筑师”译为the young architect，“逐渐”修饰动词dawned，用副词gradually，因此第一个层次译为It gradually dawned on the young architect that…。第二个层次的内容实为that之后的真正主语，根据前后关系，可处理为两个并列分句，第一并列分句为“成功没有捷径”，第二并列分句为“要想在行业中有所建树，关键是要勤勤恳恳、脚踏实地”，中间用并列连词and连接。“成功没有捷径”可使用there be句型，时态与第一个层次保持一致，用一般过去时；“成功（的）捷径”用名词短语shortcut to success，其中to为介词，表示方向，success为名词，作介词宾语，故第一并列分句译为there was no shortcut to success。第二个并列分句“要想在行业中有所建树，关键是要勤勤恳恳、脚踏实地”可处理为主系表结构，或含有条件状语从句的主从复杂句。主系表结构是“关键是要勤勤恳恳、脚踏实地”，其中“勤勤恳恳”可使用名词diligence或名词短语hard work，“脚踏实地”可译为down-to-earth effort，主系表结构为the key …was diligence/hard work and down-to-earth effort；“要想在行业中有所建树”可处理为介宾短语to sth.，作后置定语修饰the key。“有所建树”可译为动词短语make some achievements/establish oneself或get/become established，前面的to为介词，其中的动词应调整为动名词；“在行业中”为介词短语in this industry；故第二并列分句译为the key to making some achievements/establishing himself/getting/becoming established in this industry was diligence/hard work and down-to-earth effort。第二并列分句也可以处理为含有条件状语从句的主从复杂句。“要想在行业中有所建树”，译为条件状语从句，主语为he,指代the young architect，“要想”可用want to do…，时态与前面保持一致，用过去时，该条件状语从句为if he wanted to make some achievements/establish himself/get/become established in this industry；主句用主系表结构the key was…，表语“勤勤恳恳、脚踏实地”可使用名词和名词短语，也可使用to be+adj.结构。用名词和名词短语为diligence/hard work and down-to-earth effort，用to be+adj.结构则为to be diligent/hard-working and down-to-earth。故全句翻译为It gradually dawned on the young architect that there was no shortcut to success, and the key to making some achievements/establishing himself/getting/becoming established in this industry was diligence/hard work and down-to-earth effort. 或It gradually dawned on the young architect that there was no shortcut to success, and if he wanted to make some achievements/ establish himself/ get/become established in this industry, the key was diligence/hard work and down-to-earth effort/ is to be diligent/hard-working and down-to-earth. VI. Guided Writing Dear editors, I’m Li Hua, a Senior One student from Mingqi High School. Knowing that your column Youth Voices is collecting articles about role models, I’m writing to share my opinions sincerely. In my eyes, a true role model is not someone famous merely for reputation. Instead, they should own valuable qualities: strong perseverance in the face of difficulties, selflessness to serve others, and a humble attitude towards achievements. They hold firm beliefs, keep working hard quietly, and dedicate themselves to benefiting society without seeking fame. Tu Youyou is the most impressive role model for me. She committed herself to medical research all her life. Under poor experimental conditions and countless failed attempts, she never lost heart or gave up. With great patience and determination, she finally discovered artemisinin, which has saved millions of lives worldwide. Her devotion, persistence and sense of mission are truly admirable. Role models are like bright stars guiding teenagers forward. Their spirit encourages me to overcome laziness, face challenges bravely in my study and daily life.

Almost every kid has, at one time or another, eaten a Hershey chocolate bar. But did you know that the founder of the chocolate empire, Milton Hershey, 31 (taste) lots of failure before he ever enjoyed the flavor of success? In 1872 at age 14, Milton took a job at Royer’s Ice Cream Parlor in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Milton took what he learned from Mr. Royer’s shop and set off at age 19 for Philadelphia, 32 he started his first company, Spring Garden Confectionary Works. He loved to experiment with candy recipes and soon came up   33 a soft, chewy caramel (焦糖) that proved to be a big hit. Things went well for the company for a while, but Milton increasingly found the market 34 (change) fast. In the year he turned 24, the Spring Garden Confectionary Works went bankrupt. If failure is the best teacher, young Milton Hershey could argue that he had earned a doctorate (博士学位). His next stop was Denver, 35 (follow) by Chicago and New York. However, his businesses in these cities all ended up in bankruptcy. Some people in the same situation might have given up, changed professions, or simply found a job working for somebody else. Not Milton Hershey. He went back to Lancaster and prepared to give it one more try by   36 (form) a new enterprise — the Lancaster Caramel Company. This time, Milton got it right. Having learned much from his 37 (early) mistakes, Milton and his new company developed quickly. He became a 38 (respect) businessman, employing hundreds of people by the time the Columbian Exposition in Chicago was held in 1893. 39 the Exposition closed, Milton arranged to buy the entire exhibit, factory and all. He had made his money in caramels but decided that the future was in chocolate. Milton was never 40 (concern) about bankruptcy again. He died in 1945 at the age of 86, beloved by chocolate lovers around the world. He was to chocolate as Henry Ford was to automobiles and Steve Jobs was to computers. He revolutionized a luxury for the few into a treat for the masses. Section C (10 points) Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. opportunity    B. set      C. devoted     D. widely      E. fortune    F. gained   G. lack    H. benefit     I. rapidly     J. put    K. impressed One of the greatest stories of rags to riches success is that of Andrew Carnegie, who started life in poverty but became the richest man in the world. Carnegie was born in Scotland in 1837, the son of a weaver. In 1848, the family moved to the United States and at 13 Carnegie began work in a cotton mill, earning $1.5 per week. About three years later, he found a better job as a telegraph messenger boy. At work, his superiors (上级) were 41 by his abilities and willingness to work hard. In 1853, he 42 an office job at the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. This was his first big break. He continued to impress and rose 43 through the company, gaining more and more responsibility. At the same time, Carnegie loved reading very much and made use of every 44 to visit the library. He read 45 on all subjects, particularly literature. Carnegie now began to save a little money and, with the help of his employer, began to make some successful investments. He invested in the iron industry and eventually 46 up a business himself, owning several iron and steel plants. This was where he made his 47 . By the 1890s, the Carnegie Steel Company was the biggest and most profitable business in the world. Carnegie had always believed that the pursuit of wealth was never an end in itself. In his view, successful, wealthy people should re-distribute their wealth for the 48 of everyone in society. True to his word, in 1901, at the age of 66, he retired from business and 49 the rest of his life to charity work. Carnegie’s   50 of formal education and his poor family background clearly didn’t put barriers in the way of success. His rapid rise from poverty to wealth was due to his willingness to work hard, his intelligence and good business sense, and his talent for making things happen. He died in 1919 at the age of 83. III. Reading Comprehension Section A (15 points) Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Self-confidence: one’s belief that they can meet all the demands of a task. Some people are born with it, and everyone else is out of 51 , right? Wrong! Self-confidence is not something people are born with, like their height or hair color. It’s a skill that anyone can start 52 today. One simple self-confidence builder is 53 self-talk. What you say to yourself 54 how you feel about yourself. Telling yourself “I can’t do anything right” or asking “Why did I even try?” could ruin you. Instead, if you get a bad grade on a test, try saying “I’ll do better next time.” Rather than focusing on your failure, 55 ways that you can improve, and try again. Another way to 56 your confidence is to believe in yourself. Studies show that believing you can do something can increase your chance of success. If you put in the work to learn how to do something, believe in your ability. Don’t let 57 steal your energy and motivation away. One of the ugliest enemies of self-confidence is 58 yourself to others. Thinking that you are better than other people won’t give you confidence. 59 , it will make you proud. And thinking you are worse than others won’t make you 60 ; it will fill you with envy. Fight back by counting your blessings. Keep a journal and write down all the things that you’re 61 for. Facing your fears is another way to build self-confidence. You might have a(n) 62 for public speaking. But how will you know and make use of it if you never overcome your fears and try it? Even if you fail, leaving your 63 zone can make you stronger. Don’t let fear become an obstacle in your journey toward excellence! Finally, showing kindness to others is a great way to build self-confidence. Showing kindness 64 you that you can make a difference in the world. When you make others feel good, you, 65 , feel good about yourself. 51．A．order B．luck C．curiosity D．habit 52．A．practicing B．playing C．wasting D．updating 53．A．addictive B．independent C．positive D．energetic 54．A．links B．stretches C．limits D．influences 55．A．involve B．identify C．ignore D．indicate 56．A．shake B．inspire C．place D．share 57．A．concentration B．embarrassment C．enthusiasm D．doubt 58．A．comparing B．communicating C．proving D．exposing 59．A．Moreover B．Therefore C．However D．Instead 60．A．humble B．intelligent C．negative D．flexible 61．A．respectful B．grateful C．responsible D．regretful 62．A．talent B．anxiety C．mood D．occasion 63．A．danger B．occupation C．comfort D．safety 64．A．interests B．confirms C．promises D．reminds 65．A．in turn B．in person C．in all D．in addition Section B (22 points) Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A Cecilia Chiang, the chef and restaurant owner, was greatly known for introducing regional Chinese dishes to the United States. She helped change the way Americans think about Chinese cooking. Chiang was born into a wealthy Shanghai family with two full-time chefs—one from the north and one from the south. In 1949 her family settled in Tokyo, opening a restaurant called the Forbidden City. But it was a 1960 trip in San Francisco that set Chiang on her dramatic journey to cooking fame. She was both shocked and amused by the food most Americans considered to be Chinese. “They think chop suey(杂烩) is the only thing we have in China,” she said with a laugh. “What a shame.” So Chiang was determined to open a high-end Chinese restaurant that served authentic Chinese food. “Everybody said, ‘You cannot make it. You cannot speak English. You don’t know anything.’” she recalled. In 1961 then, Chiang opened the Mandarin. The restaurant wasn’t immediately successful. About a year after opening, the Mandarin received a mention from the San Francisco Chronicle (旧金山纪事报). The effect of the powerful writer’s positive comment was immediate. Tourists, dignitaries and celebrities(达官显贵)—from Mae West to John Lennon—flooded into the Mandarin for then -unfamiliar food like tea, smoked duck, twice cooked pork. Though the Mandarin was closed years later, Cecilia Chiang’s DNA can be found all over American Chinese food. Her son founded the chain P.F. Chang’s and the son of one of her chefs founded Panda Express. In early 2017, Chiang shared how she lived to be so old: “I always think about the better side, the good side of everything. I never think about, Oh, I’m going to fail. Oh, I cannot do this. Oh, I feel sorry for myself.” Instead, Chiang wrote books, starred in a PBS documentary series and won the most famous award in American cooking when she was 93 years old. 66．Cecilia Chiang opened the Mandarin in order to ________. A．remember her 1960 trip in San Francisco B．serve real Chinese food to the Americans C．show her shock and amusement towards food D．continue her family tradition of running restaurants 67．What do we know about the Mandarin? A．It is in the charge of Chiang’s son now. B．It wasn’t successful until two years later. C．It turned out pretty popular among Americans. D．It changed the way Americans think about China. 68．Which of the following best describes Cecilia Chiang? A．Talented and active. B．Ambitious and selfless. C．Optimistic and creative. D．Positive and determined. B ADOPT A DOLPHIN NOW And you will receive: ●WDC adoption pack ●A certificate of adoption ●Free magazine subscription ●Dolphin updates throughout the year She’s beautiful. She’s intelligent. Don’t let her die. Every two minutes another dolphin suffers a slow, painful death, accidentally trapped in fishing nets. Help end the suffering. More than 300000 dolphins die in fishing nets every year. You can help save dolphins around the world by adopting a UK dolphin for just £4 a month. Adopt now. WDC, Whale and Dolphin Conservation, is the leading global charity dedicated to the conservation and protection of whales and dolphins. We defend these remarkable creatures against the many threats that they face through campaigns, lobbying, advising governments, conservation projects, field research and rescue. Our vision is a world where every whale and dolphin is safe and free- including the dolphin you adopt. Meet the dolphins The dolphins each have their own personalities- on the dolphin you would like to adopt. The dolphins of Scotland’s Moray Firth are amazing but they face many threats. When you adopt a dolphin you will build a special link with an individual and help us to protect the whole population and give them a safer future. Kesslet Kesslet is a young mum who likes to hunt and play with her calf. Charlie. Kesslet is easy to spot because of her curved dorsal fin. She is friends with lots of the local dolphins and can be often seen travelling in groups of mums and youngsters. Mischief Mischief is a very friendly male dolphin who is always in party mood! He is often seen in big groups leaping around with friends such as Sundance. Mischief is also a powerful hunter who can outrun even the biggest salmon. He is easily recognized by the big nick(缺口) in his dorsal fin. Sundance Sundance was first spotted in 1990 when he was a tiny calf and now he’s a big adult male bottlenose dolphin. Sundance is really sociable and he just loves to leap around with friends. Why adopt a dolphin? “I can thoroughly recommend adopting a dolphin with WDC． It’s a fantastic way to support their amazing work. Plus, you get to know an individual dolphin!" says Miranda Krestovinikoff, BBC TV Presenter. Oil and gas exploration and production, large marina (码头) development, pollution, fisheries and more are increasingly putting pressure on the dolphins and their home. By adopting a dolphin, you will build a special link with an individual and help us to protect the whole population. Extinction is forever—the Moray Firth dolphins cannot be replaced. When you adopt a dolphin you will be helping to fund our work protecting dolphins around the world including: ●Essential research—the more we understand about the dolphins, the better we can protect them. ●Political campaigns to ensure effective laws are in place to protect the dolphins and give them a safer future. ●Equipment such as binoculars, cameras and acoustic recorders to help with our research.

C Alibaba co-founder and chairman Jack Ma on Monday announced in an open letter that he would step down, with the company CEO Daniel Zhang taking over as the chairman of the board. Zhang is known as a key architect of Alibaba’s “Singles Day”, the Nov. 11 event that has become the world’s largest online shopping event. In the letter entitled “Happy Teachers’ Day,” Ma said he would retire as the chairman of the board on Sept. 10, 2019. Ma said he would work closely with Zhang to ensure a smooth transition and stay on the Alibaba board of directors until the annual shareholders meeting in two years. After he steps down, he will continue to be part of the “Alibaba Partnership”, which has the ability to nominate the majority of directors on the company’s board. He also wants to return to education and charity, which gives him excitement and blessings. “There’s only Bill Gates who has done the same. No other tech founder in the world has just resigned like that at the top,” said Rupert Hoogewerf, which publishes an annual influential list of China’s richest people. Hoogewerf added that in China, Ma was a figure like no other, with friends ranging from movie stars to billionaires, though he often outshone them all. “He’s the big one, he’s the one that brings them together.” The company was founded at a time when the industry was still dominated by state-owned firms and entrepreneurship was seen as a risky career path. Alibaba, previously recognized as an on-line shopping company, also has investments in sports content, microchips and facial recognition technology and has been positioning itself as a serious player in cloud computing. Mr. Ma said in the letter, “The one thing I can promise everyone is this: Alibaba was never about Jack Ma, but Jack Ma will forever belong to Alibaba.” 73．What do we learn about Alibaba from this passage? A．It was founded by Jack Ma alone. B．It is nothing more than an online shopping company. C．It was founded at the time when private-owned firms was in a minority. D．Its shareholders meeting holds twice a year. 74．What can we infer from paragraph 2? A．Hoogewerf speaks highly of Jack Ma’s firm. B．Bill Gates and Jack Ma have a lot in common. C．Other than stars and billionaires, Jack Ma makes few friends. D．Jack Ma is an influential person to unite his friends. 75．Jack Ma will do the following things after stepping down except________. A．Helping people in need. B．Ensuring the company’s transition. C．Education career. D．Suggesting candidates for the board. 76．What’s the best title for this passage? A．The Brief Introduction of Jack Ma B．Daniel Zhang to Take Over Alibaba C．Alibaba’s Development D．Jack Ma to Step Down as Alibaba’s Head Section C (8 points) Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. A．I often experienced that myself. B．It trains you to express your thoughts. C．It allows you o see your progress over time. D．Just use whatever tool you feel comfortable with. E．This will help you connect your idea to another idea. F．Then you can do whatever necessary to avoid repeating the same mistakes. The Benefits of Keeping a Journal If you want to grow, one important thing you should do is keeping a journal. It may seem simple, but it can make a big difference in your life. I have been keeping journals for years. Writing all the lessons I learn and all the ideas I get has become a habit for me. And to be honest, I can’t imagine what my life would be like without it. Here are some benefits you will get by keeping a journal. It prevents you from losing an idea. Have you ever gotten an idea only to lose it later because you didn’t write it down? 77 But then I developed the habit of writing down every idea that came into my mind as soon as possible. If I’m away from my computer, I usually write it down on a piece of paper that I bring wherever I go. I will then transfer the idea to the journal in my computer. It helps you review all the lessons you’ve learned. By reviewing your journal, you can quickly see the lessons you’ve learned from your mistakes and the ideas you’ve gotten. 78 You can use the ideas to push yourself forward. 79 After keeping a journal for years, you can look back at it and see how far you’ve gone. Things that were big problems in the past might seem small today. The raw ideas you had in the past might have been realized today. It helps you expand your ideas. When you try to come up with a sentence to express an idea, you are thinking actively about it. 80 In the end, you will expand your ideas. Ⅳ. Summary Writing (10 points) 81. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point (s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. Endangered Species An endangered species is a group of animals that could soon become extinct. Extinction happens when the last of the species has died out and there will be no more. Many species are nearly extinct and could disappear off the face of the earth very soon if we don’t do anything to save them. There are many reasons why species become endangered but most of them are due to humans. Habitat destruction is the main reason why animals become endangered and this happens in two ways. When humans move into a new area, the animals’ habitat is destroyed and there is nothing to eat because humans chop down trees and build houses and farms. Animal habitats are also destroyed because of pollution. Chemicals in rivers and poisons on farms cause the destruction of habitats and animals can no longer live there. Endangered species are also the result of hunting and fishing. Animals are killed for their fur, bones or skin, or just for sport (消遣). Some seal species are now on the verge of extinction because they are killed for their fur to make coats. Tigers are shot to make medicine and tea from their bones, and crocodiles are caught to make bags and shoes. Overfishing means that large sea creatures like whales, tuna and sharks have all become endangered species, because too many are caught to make things like shark’s fin soup. So what can individuals and governments do to protect animal and plant species from becoming endangered? We should take care not to pollute natural areas, and farmers or companies who destroy animal habitats should face a financial penalty (处罚). Governments can help, too, by making it against the law to hunt, fish or trade in endangered species. If we all cooperate by taking these steps, we will protect our planet so that our children and their children can enjoy it too. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________ V.
