After sitting in classes for over six hours, they come home only to spend several more hours on homework. This leaves them with little time for sports, hobbies, or simply resting.

It is easy to spend hours scrolling through posts, which can be a huge waste of time.

A. Completely supportive and enthusiastic. B. Negative and believes it should be avoided.
C. Appreciative of its benefits but aware of its risks. D. Indifferent and doesn't care about it.

Zoos also play a key role in education and research, helping people understand and protect wildlife. So, are zoos perfect? Maybe not. But for now, they are a necessary and mostly positive force for conservation.
Question: What is the author's opinion about modern zoos?( )
A. They are completely cruel and should be closed.
B. They are perfect and have no problems.

①It's easy to think "that will never happen to me", but natural disasters are becoming both more common and serious. Millions of families face floods, tornadoes and other natural disasters every year. In Australia, for example, its wildfires from 2021 to 2023 were caused by the high temperature and a drought(干旱), taking away the lives of hundreds of people and billions of animals.
②While you can't stop disasters from happening, you can stay safe during one if you know what to do.
③Floods can happen very suddenly. Flood water can be deeper than it looks. It can carry you away, so stay away! Glass, snakes, and dirty things can be in flood water. They can make you sick, so don't drink it even if you are thirsty.
④A tornado happens during some storms. If there's a tornado warning, go someplace, such as a small and sturdy bathroom, which is safe from the wind and flying things. Remember to keep away from windows or anything heavy that might fall on you. Get down low and cover your head with your arms.
⑤You can stay safe during an earthquake by moving away from things that might fall. Get down under something strong if you can't rush out of the building right away. Protect your neck and head with your arm. If you're outside, go to an open space. Stay away from trees or anything that might fall over and hurt you.
⑥Bushfires, also known as wildfires, are common across the world during the hotter months. It is important that you try to stay calm in a bushfire. Some fires can start so quickly that they threaten(威胁) homes and lives within minutes, so your safest choice is always to leave early. You'd better prepare an emergency survival kit and have it handy at all times.
⑦No one wants to be caught in a dangerous and extreme situation. If the unthinkable does take place, having a plan and knowing what to do could make all the difference for you and your loved ones.
( )1. Why does the writer mention Australian wildfires?
A. To show that a natural disaster will never happen to us.
B. To show that the fires can cause the death of people and animals.
C. To show that high temperatures and droughts may cause wildfires.
D. To show that natural disasters are becoming more and more serious.
( )2. What does the underlined word "sturdy" mean in Chinese?
A. 明亮的 B. 宽敞的 C. 结实的 D. 不透气的
( )3. When disasters happen, what can we do to keep safe?
A. We should not wait for other people's help in a bushfire.
B. We should cover our heads and stand still when a tornado comes.
C. We can drink flood water if we are really thirsty when a flood happens.
D. We can stay under the trees after getting out of buildings in an earthquake.
( )4. What's the structure of the passage?
A. ①/②/③④⑤⑥/⑦ B. ①②③/④⑤⑥/⑦ C. ①/②③④⑤⑥⑦ D. ①②/③④⑤⑥/⑦
