B Xiaoyan, a volunteer in Guangzhou, has a deep love for nature. That love started when she was 14. One day, she looked through her teacher’s telescope (望远镜) at a bird. What she saw surprised her — the bird was so beautiful. That moment touched her deeply, and she decided to learn more about nature. Now, Xiaoyan works as a volunteer, taking children and teenagers on nature tours of wetlands and parks around Guangzhou. She wants them to feel the same sense of wonder that she felt as a child. What’s more, she hopes her work can help more people see the true value of nature, inspiring them not only to enjoy its beauty but also to take action to protect it. Xiaoyan is one of 700 volunteers in a project started by the Guangzhou Green City Environmental and Cultural Development Center (GZGC). Through training courses, the organisation aims to improve volunteers’ ability to protect the environment. Over the past two years, a number of training courses have been organised to help volunteers learn about local plants and animals, and how to protect them. To recognise the volunteers’ hard work, the organisation uses a digital system to record their work and gives awards to its most active volunteers. Xiaoyan is one of them. She says the best part of volunteering is meeting friends who love nature as she does and passing her knowledge to young people. “Volunteering gives me hope for the future. I hope more young people can join me and together we can work to make our city a better place,” Xiaoyan adds. ( ) 26. What made Xiaoyan decide to learn more about nature? A.

It mainly organises nature tours for university students. D. It gives money as prizes to its excellent volunteers. C In nature, animals need to change over time if they want to survive. These changes usually happen slowly. But one kind of bird, the Anna’s hummingbird, is changing faster than other animals. Anna’s hummingbirds are tiny birds, and they are no bigger than an egg. They have beautiful feathers and a long beak. However, researchers found that more and more of these birds were born with longer and thinner beaks. Researchers made this discovery by studying more than 100 hummingbird specimens (标本) in museums. They measured their beaks and found that the shape and size of their beaks changed a lot. Amazingly, the physical changes began when people started putting up feeders (喂食器) in their gardens or backyards. The feeders served to help the birds during hard times. In winter, people filled the feeders with sugar water. And the birds would drink it for energy. To drink more, the birds developed longer and thinner beaks. Surprisingly, the longer beaks made room for bigger tongues (舌头), allowing the birds to get more sugar water at a time. Their beaks also became sharper (更锋利的). That could help the birds protect food from other hungry animals. The changes didn’t stop there. Anna’s hummingbirds now live in more areas. They used to live mostly in northern Mexico and Southern California. Now, you can find them even in Canada. Professor Mark Jones explained, “Warmer winters because of climate change might have helped a bit, but the feeders probably played the biggest part. They offered the birds food when it was cold. This helped the birds survive in northern areas.” ( ) 31. Which question does paragraph 2 answer? A. Where do Anna’s hummingbirds live? B. What do Anna’s hummingbirds look like? C. How did Anna’s hummingbirds get their name? D. Why are Anna’s hummingbirds changing so fast? ( ) 32. What do we know about the birds from paragraph 5? A. Their ability to protect food has improved. B. Their favourite food has become less. C. They look more beautiful with longer beaks. D. They have bigger tongues than other birds. ( ) 33. Why did the birds change according to Professor Mark Jones? A. Climate change makes winter shorter. B. It was getting harder for them to find food. C. Their living environments became worse. D. They needed more energy from the feeders. ( ) 34. What can we learn from the passage? A. All animals need humans’ help to survive. B. Human activities can unexpectedly affect wildlife. C. Anna’s hummingbirds are the most amazing birds. D. Anna’s hummingbirds need more areas to survive. ( ) 35. How did researchers find the changes of the hummingbirds’ beaks? A. By watching them in Canada. B. By studying museum specimens. C. By building feeders in gardens. D. By measuring their tongues. 四、任务型阅读(共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) One morning in Beijing, Xu Wei joined about 40 other people at a community centre to “watch” the Chinese street dance film One and Only. All the people suffer from serious eye problems and they can’t see. Then, how did they “watch” the film? In fact, they listened to narrators (旁白员) explaining what was happening in the film. It is never easy to make such a movie. To recreate a 90-minute film, the team from Guangming Cinema needs to begin by watching it ten times, carefully studying every detail. Guangming Cinema was set up in December 2017 by volunteers from the Communication University of China. Volunteers have produced more than 800 such movies over the years. They also work with local charities and schools. Guangming Cinema itself provides these movies, while charities and schools connect with local people with eye problems, inviting them to “watch” these films. “I’ve come here four times to enjoy these special movies. It really means a lot to me. With narration, the movies are never boring for me,” said Xu. “It allows me to experience movies in an easier way.” Cao Jun, another attendee, also enjoys “watching” those films. He said, “I’ve developed a more active (活跃的) social life because this gives me a chance to meet new friends. ‘Watching’ them with others from time to time makes my life brighter.” 36.How did people “watch” the film One and Only? 37.When was Guangming Cinema set up? 38.What do charities and schools do? 39.How has “watching” those films influenced Cao’s life?
