1 . A few years ago, I was leaving the dog kennel(养狗场) where I worked, only to find a baby goat at the end of the driveway. The kennel’s owners are animal rescuers, and I thought someone_________him over the fence. The kid was_________nervous but stood perfectly still as I got closer.

I’m an animal_________and I’ve brought home dogs, cats, horses, chickens, and fish, but never a goat. The tiny kid was too_________for me to leave it behind. I_________him Quincy and bottle- fed him in my bathroom.

Quincy proved to be quite_________. When he was about a week old, I tapped my fingers on the floor and said “_________” I was amazed when he dropped down. I was even more amazed when he did it three times_________. A quick study, Quincy learned to lie down, bow, and turn in a circle in no time. He knows the name of everything I feed him, and even joins us for_________to the dog park.

I often take my dogs to shows where they can perform their__________. Quincy did his first show at just six weeks old. He knew only a few tricks then, but he did them perfectly and never__________or got nervous in front of the crowd. Now he’ll shake hooves, come when called, walk on a leash, wave, smile for the__________( “Say cheese!” ), and more. Quincy and my dogs perform regularly at schools, nursing homes, and charity events. Quincy can even “read” his tricks off cue cards(提示卡), which always__________the most applause(掌声).

The goat kid nobody__________turned out to be one of the smartest animals I’ve had. He’s by far the sharpest of my bunch—just don’t tell the__________!

5 . Marco Springmann and his colleagues, at the Oxford Martin School’s Future of Food Programme, built computer models that predicted what would happen if everyone became vegetarian by 2050. The results indicate that if the world went vegan (严格的素食主义者), the greenhouse gas emissions declines would be around 70%.

In the US, for example, an average family of four emits more greenhouse gases because of the meal they eat than from driving two cars---but it is cars, not steaks, that regularly come up in discussions about global warming.

Food, especially livestock (牲畜，家畜) also takes up a lot of room. 68% of agricultural land in the world is used for livestock. When these lands become grasslands and forests, they would capture carbon dioxide and further ease climate change.

However, if the whole world went vegan, there would be negative effects too. First, it is necessary to keep livestock for environmental purposes. “I’m sitting here in Scotland where the Highlands’ environment is very man-made and based largely on grazing by sheep,” says Peter Alexander, a researcher in socio-ecological systems modeling at the University of Edinburgh. “If we took all the sheep away, the environment would look different and there would be a potential negative impact on biodiversity.”

Plus, meat is an important part of history, tradition and cultural identity. Numerous groups around the world give livestock gifts at weddings, celebratory dinners such as Christmas with turkey or roast beef.

And nowadays, moderation in meal-eating’s frequency and portion size is key to solving these conflicts. “Certain changes would encourage us to make healthier and more environmentally friendly dietary decisions,” says Springmann, “like putting a higher price lag on meat and making fresh fruits and vegetables cheaper.”

In fact, clear solutions already exist for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the livestock industry. What is lacking is the will to carry out those changes.

But hope was not lost. Soon after the quakes, the army sent 150,000 soldiers to Tangshan to dig out those who were     1     and to     2     the dead. More than 10, 000 doctors and nurses came to provide medical care. Workers built     3    for survivors     4     homes had been destroyed. Hundreds of thousands of people were helped. Water and food were brought into the city by train, truck, and plane. Slowly, the city began to     5    again.

Tangshan started to     6     itself and get back up on its feet. With strong support from the government and the tireless     7     of the city’s people, a new Tangshan was built upon the earthquake ruins. The new city has become a     8     to more than seven million people, with great improvements in transportation, industry, and environment. Tangshan city has proved to China and the rest of the world that in times of disaster, people must     9     and show the     10     to stay positive and rebuild for a brighter future.

Kunming, the capital of Yunnan Province, is the economic and cultural     1     (central) of southwest China. It is connected by rail with all of China’s major cities. Its rail connection with Hanoi (河内)     2     (establish)in 1901.

Kunming’s mild climate makes it a good place     3     (visit) any time of the year. Although it can be hot and humid in summer, it has cool, dry winters. The climate here is great for flowers, with more than 400     4     (variety) grown here. The camellia (山茶花) is the city’s official flower. The city is also known     5     its green parks, such as Cuihu (Green Lake) Park with its waterways     6     winding paths.

In addition to its     7     (extreme) beautiful scenery, Kunming serves as     8     base from which people can explore the culture of ethnic groups in the area. The most well known are the Dai, Bai and Naxi. People can also visit the Yunnan Stone Forest,     9     has been known as the     10     (one) wonder of the world since the Ming Dynasty. Located 120 km from Kunming, the stone forest features awesome rock formations.

Every day people throw away a lot of household garbage – paper, cans, kitchen waste, used batteries and glass     1     sorting it.   There are many problems     2    (cause) by unsorted garbage. On one hand, it's     3    great waste of resources. On the other hand, the disposal of unsorted garbage can cause serious environmental pollution,     4    does harm to people's health. Now our government has realized the importance of garbage sorting. So far many activities     5     (hold) to teach people how to sort garbage     6     (proper).

People in cities, like Beijing and Shanghai, are required to sort garbage into four categories - kitchen waste, dangerous waste,     7     (recycle) waste and other waste. Also, they can get certain points for sorting their garbage. When they accumulate enough points, they can go to the community     8     (exchange) them for some gifts of daily use. However, still a lot of people in China lack the     9     (aware) of garbage sorting. Changing people's mindsets and habits will take a long time. But once one person       10     (develop) the habit of garbage sorting, more may be influenced to do the same.
