Hadley is a sweet and energetic pup that just needs a little time to warm up. She can be nervous when meeting new people, but once she feels safe, her playful and fun personality shines through! Hadley loves to run around, play with toys and would like to stay with someone who can be patient and help her build confidence. She’d love to meet the whole family here at the shelter before you take her home. Meet Bolt! This spirited pup is lively and always ready for an adventure. Along with his playful nature, he’s also a total sweetheart who loves being around people and enjoys attention. Bolt would grow up healthy in an active home with older kids or adults only, as his enthusiasm might be a bit too much for younger children. He may also enjoy having a playful dog friend to have fun with. Coral would love to go home with someone that will take her on adventures to lakes, streams or the beach because she loves water! Playing with other dogs is another one of her favorite things to do, so bring any potential siblings over to say hello! Coral has suffered abuse before, so she needs a quiet home and a patient owner that could help her gain confidence around people. Thumbelina is a shy girl that would be grateful for an adopter who lets her slowly get used to her new home. Once she’s comfortable with you, she loves to snuggle up next to you or right on your lap. She’s met dogs and cats and seems to have done okay with both, so with a slow introduction she can learn to get along with some new furry friends. 1. Which family is the most suitable for Bolt? A. A quiet home of an old couple. B. An energetic family of adults. C. A family with young children. D. A home with no other dog pets. 2. Which dog has a history of being mistreated? A. Hadley. B. Bolt.

To give advice on petting dogs. 【答案】1. B 2. C 3.

(Bolt在有年龄稍大的孩子或成年人的活跃家庭中会健康成长，因为他的热情可能会让年幼的孩子有些难以承受。)”可知，Bolt更适合一个充满活力的成年人家庭，而不是有小孩的家庭或安静的老年夫妇家庭。同时，文中提到“He may also enjoy having a playful dog friend to have fun with. (他也可能会喜欢有一个爱玩的狗朋友一起玩。)”，因此一个没有其他狗宠物的家庭也不是最合适的。由此可知，最适合Bolt的是一个充满活力的成年人家庭。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Coral部分的介绍“Coral has suffered abuse before, so she needs a quiet home and a patient owner that could help her gain confidence around people. (Coral以前受过虐待，所以她需要一个安静的家和一个有耐心的主人，帮助她在人们面前建立信心。)”可知，Coral有被虐待的历史。故选C。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“From big-eyed couch potatoes to long-eared hiking companions, the Humane Society of Charlotte (HSC) has all sorts of dogs awaiting their forever homes. (从大眼睛的沙发土豆到长耳朵的徒步旅行伙伴，夏洛特人道协会 (HSC) 有各种各样的狗在等待它们永远的家。)”以及下文对四只狗的介绍可知，本文的目的是为这些狗寻找领养家庭，即宣传领养狗的信息。故选A。 主题02 人与自我 Passage 1 （24-25学年高二下·山东济宁·期末） The morning announcement at school doesn’t have to be the “same old” routine. It can be a few minutes of engaging content. Let’s look at how schools around America are using morning announcements to inspire a greater sense of community. The usual format of morning announcements: “Good morning everyone!” School pledge (誓言) Thought for the day A special message Innovative Additions: Motivational Start Some schools adjust from the standard format to include the weather report and lunch menu. The thought for the day is sometimes replaced by a motivational quote, such as “Accept — then act”, from Eckhart Tolle’s The Power of Now. The practices benefit students most by helping them prepare for the day and inspiring positive attitudes. Theme of the Day Providing students with a new theme for the day is a creative approach. It can direct their energy towards a positive activity. For instance, “Help a Friend Tuesday”. Students can refer to multiple sources to draw up a list of words for each day of the week, and they are actively encouraged to follow through. No wonder it is their favorite. Guest of the Day A five-star★★★★★recommendation from school staff goes to “guest of the day”, someone who has a useful, relevant message to deliver to students. That person could be the: ※ school nurse who offers health tips; ※ art teacher with some handy pointers; ※ librarian who recommends 2-3 classics. Student Appreciation Morning announcements are also used to draw attention to exceptional work by students, whether it is an essay, artwork or poem. Teachers are tasked with displaying it on a noticeboard. That student’s name is read out during the announcement. It serves as a motivator to work hard and the concept encourages healthy competition among students. 1. Where is this text probably taken from? A. An academic paper. B. A course design. C. An activity guide. D. A morning announcement. 2. Which of the following is the most popular among students? A. Motivational Start. B. Theme of the Day. C. Guest of the Day. D.

One Tree Planted has planting projects in six global regions. Every reforestation (重新造林) project has a unique impact on forests, communities, biodiversity, and the environment. Here are our most recent highlights! MONARCH BUTTERFLY HABITAT Monarch butterfly populations have been reducing over time. This is mainly because their winter habitats in California and Mexico are being destroyed. Pesticide use and extreme weather caused by climate change are also harming them.

Each fruit tree we plant equals at least $10 in food and nutrition yearly. Besides economic benefits, planting trees also boosts ecology and health. India struggles with poor air quality. Trees, which clean the air, trap pollutants, and provide oxygen over their lifetimes. FOREST FIRE RESTORATION California’s forests need active management to improve their health, reduce the risk of major wildfires, and protect this beautiful natural playground for future generations. So far, we’ve planted over 4.4 million trees in California, but there’s still more work to do. Working with partners like the U. S.

Thumbelina is a shy girl that would be grateful for an adopter who lets her slowly get used to her new home. Once she’s comfortable with you, she loves to snuggle up next to you or right on your lap.

Let’s look at how schools around America are using morning announcements to inspire a greater sense of community. The usual format of morning announcements: “Good morning everyone!” School pledge (誓言) Thought for the day A special message Innovative Additions: Motivational Start Some schools adjust from the standard format to include the weather report and lunch menu. The thought for the day is sometimes replaced by a motivational quote, such as “Accept — then act”, from Eckhart Tolle’s The Power of Now. The practices benefit students most by helping them prepare for the day and inspiring positive attitudes. Theme of the Day Providing students with a new theme for the day is a creative approach. It can direct their energy towards a positive activity. For instance, “Help a Friend Tuesday”. Students can refer to multiple sources to draw up a list of words for each day of the week, and they are actively encouraged to follow through. No wonder it is their favorite. Guest of the Day A five-star★★★★★recommendation from school staff goes to “guest of the day”, someone who has a useful, relevant message to deliver to students. That person could be the: ※ school nurse who offers health tips; ※ art teacher with some handy pointers; ※ librarian who recommends 2-3 classics. Student Appreciation Morning announcements are also used to draw attention to exceptional work by students, whether it is an essay, artwork or poem. Teachers are tasked with displaying it on a noticeboard. That student’s name is read out during the announcement. It serves as a motivator to work hard and the concept encourages healthy competition among students. 1. Where is this text probably taken from? A. An academic paper. B. A course design. C. An activity guide. D. A morning announcement. 2. Which of the following is the most popular among students? A. Motivational Start. B. Theme of the Day. C. Guest of the Day. D. Student Appreciation. 3. What is Student Appreciation aimed at? A. Publicizing sports competitions. B. Encouraging the spirit of hard work. C. Safeguarding mental health. D.

Trees, which clean the air, trap pollutants, and provide oxygen over their lifetimes. FOREST FIRE RESTORATION California’s forests need active management to improve their health, reduce the risk of major wildfires, and protect this beautiful natural playground for future generations.
