3 . I enjoy feeding birds in my garden. About three years ago, a baby chipmunk (花栗鼠) which I named Chip came to this festive display. Over that summer, I watched it ______. The next summer, the chipmunk was back, and I wondered whether it would ______ me to feed it by hand or let me pet it. Before Chip would approach, I’d ______ its favorite food, bend down and keep very still. I’d leave my open hand______, unmoving, so the animal would know I wouldn’t ______ it. I continued doing this for a few weeks.

Finally, late in that second summer, Chip did show more trust. One day as I offered a seed with my fingertips, it approached and ______ took the seed into its mouth. It never bit my fingers. I was happy that Chip and I had make a(n) ______ of trust.

After about two months of this ______, I went further. With my index finger, I ______ its back once gently. I’m not even sure Chip felt it, but it didn’t ______. I then moved my two fingers slowly and gently over it. ______, Chip stayed calm, eating seeds, before running quickly back into the bush. Today, the chipmunk comes out of hiding when I call its name, and lets me pet its soft, silky body.

A friend once mentioned that after she ______ a dog, she noticed that her high blood pressure had approached ______ without medication, and she became calmer and could handle stress better. I think I, too, feel calmer from my interactions with Chip. I’ve also developed a greater ______ for nature and its creatures and the opportunity to observe, protect and save wildlife. Most of all, I am amazed by the ______ of a tiny chipmunk to meet me halfway in trust.

5 . Hurricane season can be wild and unpredictable.    1     Here are some ways you can beef up(增加) your home security in hurricane weather, even if you need to move out.

    2    That actually does nothing to ensure your safety in the powerful winds. Sticking to hurricane shelters or plywood(胶合板) is the only way to go when it comes to protecting those points of entry in hurricane conditions. Buy sheets of plywood, measure your windows and use brackets(支架) to hold the plywood in place.

Sandbags are very useful. While sandbags won’t be able to help in the extreme storm, many people will be able to prevent flooding and extensive damage to their belongings by placing sandbags.    3    Any storm water that is kept out of your home is storm water that won’t be able to damage the belongings inside your home, so sandbags are well worth having at your doorways during a hurricane.

It important to prepare the inside of your home for strong winds and rain. But you should also keep an eye on the outside of your house, too. Trim(修剪) trees, especially dead branches, to prevent anything else that could fly through a window and cause damage during a hurricane.    4    

You should also take pictures of expensive items like electronics and keep notes of their serial numbers.    5    Also, there are always bad people outright after a storm. If the worst happens and your home is broken into right after a bad storm, having pictures and detailed notes about what was in your home prior to the hurricane will make it easier for police to track down stolen items.

A．You should have a camera at home.

B．It can be strong enough to resist the forceful winds.

C．Making sure nothing is loose in your yard is important.

D．These dangerous storms can bring damage to your home and belongings.

E．They will be able to effectively keep storm water out in many cases.

F．It will aid with your insurance company if anything needs to be replaced.

G．You may see people attaching windows with sticky tape before a hurricane comes.

7 . CAMBODIA—The “world’s loneliest elephant” has been resettled at a nature reserve (保护区) in the Oddar Meanchey Province after receiving some help from singer Cher recently.

Kaavan, a 36-year-old, 9,000-pound elephant, was given the nickname after he suffered from emotional and physical problems while living in a zoo in Pakistan for 35 years. During that time, Kaavan was mostly tied in his enclosure (圈用地), and when his partner died in 2012, her body lay next to him for several days before it was removed. Doctors said Kaavan was overweight, malnourished (营养不良的) and suffering from behavioral problems due to loneliness.

Cher, who has been advocating Kaavan’s resettlement, met with Pakistani Prime Minister on Friday and later visited Kaavan in the zoo. Kaavan was tested for COVID-19 before his seven-hour journey, during which 440 pounds of food were prepared. A doctor took care of him on the flight and worked with Four Paws, the animal rescue group that organized the move. He said Kaavan did not seem stressed and even slept during the flight. Very few elephants have been relocated by plane, according to Four Paws.

On Monday, Kaavan arrived in Cambodia and made his way north by truck to his new home. Once he feels settled, he will be set free from his enclosure and allowed to wander around the reserve, which houses about 600 Asian elephants. Experts say Kaavan will get a long term of psychological and physical treatment. Years of living in an enclosure with poor flooring has caused his nail to crack and overgrow and he has developed a habit of shaking his head back and forth for hours, which is believed to be out of boredom.

The elephant has lost half a ton since his diet was changed to fruit and vegetables. The zoo where he spent much of his life has been ordered to shut down.

1. What do we know about the elephant?

A．It had a weight problem.

B．It was kept free in the zoo.

C．It was all alone in his enclosure.

D．It lived in a reserve for 35 years.

2. According to the text, which of the following can best describe the move?

A．Dangerous.

B．Uncomfortable.

C．Well-organized.

D．Wide-spread.

3. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?

A．The introduction to his new home.

B．The further arrangements for Kaavan.

C．The cause of Kaavan’s health problems.

D．The medical treatment Kaavan will receive.

4. What is the text?

A．A news report.

B．A short story of an elephant.

C．A research article.

D．An advertisement to a nature reserve.

9 . 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

One Saturday afternoon, I was watching TV in the living room with my grandpa when a blinding flash of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by a deafening sound, and the pictures on TV disappeared with that sound. Before I realized what had happened, a gray-white shadow rushed in through the open window and flew over my head. Bang! It hit the wall and slid off to the floor. Shaking with fear, I approached it cautiously and saw that it was a pigeon. It looked at me in fear, trying to open its wings and struggling its feet, but apparently powerless.

So I called my grandpa and immediately set out to give it a helping hand. Taking it in my hands, I felt a few drops of warmth on my hands. It was blood! I gently spread its wings and there were a few red feathers inside. “Don’t worry. We’ll get it out alive,” Grandpa said to me. Then he got the first-aid kit. With some cotton, we dried the blood, cleaned the wound and then put it under a hairdryer to dry. All went smoothly, for the pigeon had no strength left to resist. There happened to be an empty birdcage at home, so I put it in gently and added a little water and some grains.

For the next few days, the moment I got home from school, I would run to feed the pigeon. And Grandpa helped a lot, tidying up the cage daily. Little by little, its strength returned. One evening, I fed it with the biscuit I was eating. It enjoyed it! One week later, its wound almost healed (痊愈); its feathers grew and it became brave. Whenever I sat at the table eating biscuits, it looked up at me, cooing (咕咕地叫) constantly. To my joy, I could also reach into the cage to touch it. When I gently fingered its head, it playfully pecked (啄) at me. Finally it completely recovered. But every time I was with it, it seemed restless in the cage. To make it happy and pretty, I tied an orange string (线)around its leg.

注意:1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。

One day, however, when I returned home, Grandpa met me at the door, looking embarrassed.

Sure enough, I saw a pigeon flying into the house the next afternoon!

10 . 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

Plastic has polluted the countryside and been     1    threat to wildlife for decades. In the last century or so, environmentalists have urged us     2    (cut) the amount of plastic we use or recycle the plastic bags. However, with only less than 14 percent of the total amount recycled, people are still struggling with plastic pollution     3    (global).

There may be a solution. Recently scientists have made a biodegradable (可降解的) plastic,     4     means the billions of plastic bags, cups, straws, etc. that we throw away each day could be recycled.     5     (compare) with ordinary plastics, they could break down as naturally as organic waste. They could do it within a few weeks,     6     (use) just heat and water. The new, biodegradable plastic has polyester-eating enzymes (酶) inside it. When these enzymes are exposed     7     heat and water, they eat away at the plastic and turn it into “food” for the soil. Professor Ting Xu said up to 98 per cent of the plastic her team made reduced into tiny pieces. She said: “The study gives us a     8     (believe) that this continuing problem of single-use plastics can    9    (solve) in the near future.” She added: “Look at all the wasted stuff we throw away—clothing, shoes, electronics....We are taking things from the earth at a     10     (fast) rate than we can return them.”
