【推荐1】With various difficulties, for 33 years, Luo Yingjiu, 82, has run a small zoo in Enshi, Hubei province, on his own. At the one-man Fenghuang Mountain Zoo, Luo serves as director, cleaner, breeder, vet and conductor.
Most of the animals of the zoo are old and disabled, many of which were saved by Luo. The zoo’s lion, tiger and python passed away years ago, leaving only a bear, some peafowls, a troop of monkeys, a Tibetan mastiff, a wild boar, two raccoons and about 20 dogs. Luo has given names to all the animals in the zoo. “Animals are friends to human beings. If they are treated well, they will also be nice in return,” says Luo. Because of long white hair, he was always mistaken for a woman. Once he cut his long hair, but one of the monkeys didn’t recognize him, so he has kept it long ever since.
A ticket only costs 10 yuan per person, and it’s free for children. As different types of entertainment in this modern times, the zoo has become less attractive to local people and Luo has even fallen into debt(债务) to keep the zoo. Recently, due to the pandemic, the number of visitors has cut down to just several people a day. Luo lives economically, eats simply and never dines out. Sometimes he picks up empty bottles to sell to support the zoo. But he’s generous to the animals, whose daily cost of food is now about 400 yuan. He says his selflessness is something he has carried over from his army days.
While the world changes rapidly, the zoo remains much the same, and so does Luo’s insistance and his love for the animals.

【推荐2】The novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) has already made tens of thousands of people sick. Where did the virus come from? Scientists say it probably came from bats.
Bats can carry and transmit more than 60 viruses that can infect humans, Live Science noted. They include the world’ s deadliest viruses,such as Ebola and HIV. Due to their strong immune systems (免疫系统),bats are able to host these viruses and not get sick. At the same time,the viruses keep developing inside the bats to create new variants (变体). These variants can then infect new hosts,such as other wild animals.
Pangolins (穿山甲),for example,might be an intermediate host (中间宿主) for NCP,according to a recent study by Chinese scientists. This means that bats might have given the virus to pangolins,with pangolins then spreading it to humans.
Wild animals like snakes,hedgehogs (刺猬) and bamboo rats also carry various viruses. But since they live in the wild,there should be few chances for humans to come into contact with them and get infected—unless the animals are eaten or used to make animal products. When people hunt, buy and eat wild animals, they can introduce viruses to the rest of the population.
But this doesn’t mean that we should kill wild animals. Each species has a role in the eco-system (生态系统) and all of them are important in keeping a natural ecological balance. The lesson we can learn from disease outbreaks is to respect and protect animals and to live in harmony with them instead of hunting,killing,or eating them.
1. Why can bats host many viruses without getting sick?A.Because these viruses are not deadly. |
B.Because the viruses are kept in balance. |
C.Because they have strong immune systems. |
D.Because they can spread the viruses to other animals. |
A.danger | B.peace | C.pain | D.surprise |
A.Research more about wild animals. | B.Exercise regularly to stay healthy. |
C.Stop keeping animals as pets. | D.Don’t buy or eat wild animals. |
【推荐3】Trees are useful to man in three very important ways.
The first important way is that they provide man with wood and other products. Trees provide not only man with food, but also many animals with food. Without trees, many animals could not live on the earth. It’s not easy for man to live on the earth, either.
The second important way is that trees give us shade(阴凉). On a hot summer day, people are eager (渴望) to have a rest under the tree after they have a long walk. You can imagine how important the shade of a tree is to man and animals.
The third important way is that trees help to prevent drought and floods. However, in many parts of the world, man has not realized the third way. They cut trees down in large numbers. In the end, they find that they have lost the best friends they had.
根据短文内容,判断正(A)误(B),并在答题卡的相应位置将其涂黑。
1. Many animals could not live on the earth without trees.
2. In hot summer, trees give us shade to cool.
3. Cutting down trees in large numbers can’t cause drought or floods.
4. The underlined word “ they” refers to man and animals.
5. Protecting forests is protecting ourselves.
The clock struck twelve.
Scrooge looked around him for the Ghost, but he couldn’t see it. Then he remembered old Jacob Marley’s prediction(预言). He lifted his eyes, and he saw a serious Ghost. The ghost wore a black robe(长袍). The robe covered its head, its face and its body. The only thing visible(看得到的) was a hand. The ghost didn’t speak or move. Scrooge was scared.
“Are you the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come?” asked Scrooge. The Ghost didn’t answer, but it pointed its hand in front of it.
“You are going to show me the future,” Scrooge continued. “Am I right, Ghost?” The Ghost nodded its head. That was the only answer Scrooge received.
“Ghost of the Future,” he said, “I’m more afraid of you than of all the other ghosts. But because I want to be a better man, I will go with you. Please, speak to me.”
It didn’t reply. The hand pointed straight in front of them. “Lead on!” said Scrooge.
The Ghost moved forwards. Scrooge followed in the shadow of its robe. And the robe carried him along. The city suddenly appeared(出现)around them. There they were, in the heart(心脏)of it. The Ghost stopped beside some businessmen at the Stock(股票)Exchange. Its hand was pointing to them, so Scrooge listened to their conversation.
“I only know he’s dead,” said a great fat man. “When did he die?” asked another.
“Last night, I think.”
“What was the matter with him?” asked a third.
“God knows,” said the first, with a yawn(哈欠).
“What has he done with his money?” asked a red-faced gentleman.
“I don’t know,” said the great fat man, yawning again. “He hasn’t left it to me. That’s all I know.”
Everybody laughed.
“It will be a very small funeral(葬礼),” said the great fat man. “I don’t think anybody will go to it.”
Scrooge knew the men. And he looked towards the Ghost for an explanation(解释). He didn’t understand why this conversation was important. But he knew it must be.
Scrooge looked around the place. He looked at the clock. It was strange. He was usually there at this time, but he couldn’t see himself.

On Saturday morning, every boy in town was happy, except Tom sawyer. Tom’s aunt said he had to paint the fence. It was thirty yards long and three yards high! Tom painted a small corner, and then he sat down under a tree to have a rest.
Soon the boys who were free would come along and make fun of him. Just then, he had a wonderful idea. He picked up his brush and went back to work.
Ben Rogers came along the road. He sang happily, with an apple in one hand.
“I’m going swimming,” said Ben. “Do you want to come? Oh, but you have to work, don’t you?” “Work?” he said, “I don’t think that this is work. It’s fun. Does a boy get a chance like this every day?”

【推荐3】Li Lirong opened the iShenzhen app, chose two bottles of milk and pressed OK on the screen. A few minutes later, she picked up the milk, which was free, from a nearby dispenser(自动售货机). The cleaner in Shenzhen has been enjoying free products for several months. “It’s really heart-warming,” Li said. “Although it is a small act by the government, it shows great love.”
Shenzhen’s Futian District has launched a “Futian food bank” program. It encourages companies(公司)dealing with the food business to give away products that are about to expire(到期). People can choose the products on the iShenzhen app and collect them from certain dispensers. The service is now open to people with low pay, such as cleaners and gardening workers, and people with special needs, such as childless elderly people.
“In order to prevent food waste in Futian, we set up the food bank program,” said Tang Yuhong, an officer of Futian District. “We also hope to give real help to people in need.” Tang hopes more companies and people can take part in the program.
Freshippo, a shopping platform(平台), is one of the companies taking part in the program. And it has given away thousands of products so far. “Freshippo wants to play a leading role in the fight against food waste and help people in need. We will do more in the future.” said Shang Jun, one director of the company. Other shopping platforms such as Meituan and Dingdong Maicai are also taking part in the program.
