One winter， a fisherman—Jim Savage—was braving the freezing temperatures when he noticed a baby dolphin struggling to free herself from another fisherman’s trap (陷阱)—the fishing net. Jim spoke to her and she calmed down as he cut her free from the net. Seeing she was too tired to swim away， he called the Wildlife Conservation Commission and they rescued the dolphin， named her Winter and took her to the center to get treatment.

Winter was placed in a holding tank (容器) and the team put a feeding tube in her throat. Soon， though， Winter learned how to eat from a bottle. But the net wrapped around Winter’s tail had caused her tail to fall off piece by piece. Eventually all that was left was a fleshy stump (殘肢). Though Winter did finally start to swim， she taught herself an entirely original way—to swing her tail stump from side to side like a fish.

She learned very well and learned how to trust and love the people who cared for her. And she made a new nonhuman friend—Panama， another rescued dolphin. The two became lifelong friends， completely inseparable.

But the trainers were worried. Her original moving way prevented her from growing properly. Then Kevin Carroll， a dolphin lover and maker of prosthetic limbs (假肢) for people， stepped in. With a team of experts， vets， and trainers， Kevin developed a new tail for Winter. Winter was retrained to use the device to swim properly， and with lots of hard work she did it!

Word about the disabled dolphin got out and everyone could relate to the dolphin. Now she seems to be connected with everyone—from adults with prostheses to a little girl who didn’t want to wear her hearing aid until she met Winter.

24. What made Winter calm down according to Paragraph 1?

A. The fishing net." " B. Jim’s words. C. The rescue team. D. The new tail.

25. Why did Jim phone the Wildlife Conservation Commission?

A. To deal with a device. B. To meet the baby dolphin.

C. To look after the baby dolphin. D. To rescue the other fisherman.

26. What made the trainers worry about Winter according to Paragraph 4?

C. Her relationship with Panama. D. Her unusual moving style.

27. What would the author think of the outcome of the event?

A. It’s great. B. It’s unexpected. C. It’s humorous. D. It’s discouraging.

At one time， biologist Chris Kelly saw a lone bat on a bridge crossing the French Broad River outside Asheville， North Carolina. Five years later， everything wildlife biologists thought they knew about endangered gray bats in this corner of the Blue Ridge Mountains has been changed.

Kelly， a biologist with the NC Wildlife Resources Commission， was on the bridge doing bird work. Bats aren’t her area of expertness， so she reached out to the state’s bat experts. Joey Weber， a technician who was working for the Commission， arrived at the bridge later that day and found 19 big brown bats living in the expansion joints (接縫).

That night， Weber was joined by Katherine Etchison， the Commission’s bat biologist， for an emergence (出現(xiàn)) count. They counted 240， but a busy schedule meant the team couldn’t return for a second emergence count until July 18. “I was very eager to get back out there because I really thought there would be something besides big brown bats. I was thinking Mexican free-tailed bats， which would be a first for Buncombe County， but that wasn’t the big news，” said Etchison.

The second emergence count recorded 1，000 bats. To learn which species used the bridge， biologists recorded the ultrasonic (超聲的) sounds made by emerging bats， which are species-specific. Later that night， Etchison rolled through the recorded calls， displayed vividly on her computer， and the suspected Mexican free-tailed bats showed up. But， so did something very unexpected too.

She immediately texted Susan Cameron， an Asheville-based biologist. Along with big brown and Mexican free-tailed bats， the computer identified the calls of endangered gray bats. The discovery was confirmed the next day when Etchison， Weber， and Cameron visited the bridge at dusk—just before bat emergence—and carefully captured a bat from one of the expansion joints. The 2016 discoveries marked the first time gray bats were known to live in North Carolina.

28. How did Kelly find the bat on the bridge?

A. Accidentally. B. Professionally. C. Purposefully. D. Skilfully.

29. What does the underlined words “the big news” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A. 1，000 bats were recorded. B. A big brown bat was identified.

C. Mexican free-tailed bats showed up. D. The discovery of gray bats was confirmed.

30. How did biologists recognize the species of the bats?

A. By counting the emergence. B. By analyzing the bats’ sounds.

C. By capturing the bats. D. By looking through the computer.

31. What is the text mainly about?

A. A biology research. B. An endangered bat discovery.

C. The emergence of free-tailed bats. D. The way of finding endangered bats.

The fight is on to be free from air pollution in our cities. While the best solution in the long-term would be to ban fossil-fueled cars， that won’t help the millions who are dying in the meantime， and so some high-tech solutions are now on the cards.

London’s air pollution problem has been getting worse for years. In March 2016， ten London pigeons (鴿子) became famous. These pigeons took off to the sky， wearing backpacks monitoring air pollution. Once in the air， the backpacks sent live air-quality updates to the smartphones of the Londoners below.

Another promising approach can be found in Beijing. A seven-meter-high “Smog Free Tower”， designed by a Dutch scientist， Daan Roosegaarde， opened in Beijing’s 751 D Park in September 2016. It is a huge， outdoor air purifier (凈化器). Airborne particles (顆粒) are sucked into the tower and caught by a dust-removal plate. Finally， clean air is blown out of the other end. “Changing smog particles does not take much power，” Roosegaarde said.

As for what to do with the collected PM waste， he has currently set up a business making jewellery out of the waste. Prince Charles owns a set of “smog free” cufflinks (袖扣). If collected on at a big scale， Roosegaarde believes it could even be used as a building material.

Mexico City has an alternative solution. Looking to Nature to maximize the surface area of a building， Allison Dring， a Berlin-based architect， managed to catch light and wind from all sides. She is now making a building material by burning agricultural crop by-products in the absence of oxygen. “It means that you are actually taking carbon out of the sky， transforming it into a material， and then using it to build， ” says Dring.

The fight against outdoor air pollution is really just starting. Even if none of the ideas take off， at least the prince’s cufflinks， the special building surface and pigeons wearing backpacks will have brought the issue more to the public’s attention.

32. What do the underlined words “on the cards” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A. Hardly to achieve. B. Widely questioned.

C. Likely to happen. D. Publicly welcomed.

33. The ten pigeons in London were used to _______.

A. monitor air pollution B. warn Londoners

C. update weather forecast D. deliver backpacks

34. What can we learn about the Smog Free Tower?

A. It is the first air purifier in the world." B. Its power consumption is high.

C. Light and wind can be caught by it." D. PM waste from it can be reused.

35. What can be the best title for the text?

A. Why Is Technology Used to Fight Smog? B. What Makes Smog a Worldwide Problem?

C. How Are the World’s Cities Fighting Smog? D. When Can Humans Keep Away from Smog?

Trees have long played a special role in all aspects of human life. In ancient times， trees provided a place for humans to take shelter from storms， heat and even enemies. Today， the importance of trees continues to increase. 36

Trees provide the necessary oxygen to breathe. Many industrial and development activities add huge quantities (數(shù)量) of carbon dioxide to the environment. Trees absorb carbon dioxide and in turn release fresh oxygen in the environment. 37 Thus， they are the most important contributors in maintaining the environmental balance.

Trees can prevent soil erosion (侵蝕) and clean soil. Trees tie up the soil of the earth tightly. 38 They are highly beneficial for preventing soil erosion. Besides， poisonous chemicals and pollutants from various factories enter into the soil， thus causing soil pollution. Trees have the ability to store them or change them into less harmful forms.

39 Trees satisfy the need of fuel for cooking in many areas around the world. Trees also provide wood for furniture and hundreds of household items. Wood pulp (漿) is used for making paper in industries. Also， trees produce a number of fruits and nuts which are sold at market. Some trees are even used to make medicines.

Trees provide life to birds and insects. 40 Insects get their food in the form of seeds， buds， and fruits. Thus trees are the most important supporters of life.

A. This lowers global warming.

B. Trees are of money-making importance.

C. This increases the drying effect on the soil.

D. More benefits of trees are being discovered.

E. They give them food， shelter， cover and nest sites.

F. Trees provide wood for making furniture and paper.

G. Thus， fast flowing water or heavy wind is unable to take away soil with it.
