Desperate to protect his farmland from a group of monkeys that were always destroying his crops, a farmer in Karnatakas India decided to paint his dog to look like a tiger in the hope that it would scare the monkeys away. Srikant Gowda, a farmer from Karnatakas Shivamogga region, recently made interactional news headlines after it was reported that he used hair dye to paint his watchdog in the characteristic stripes of a tiger. The dog already had a reddish hair color, so all he had to do was add the black stripes and some white to give it the tiger look. It wasn't that Gowda had always wanted to own a tiger, but that he hoped the disguise(乔装) would help the dog drive away the monkeys destroying his crops. The Indian farmer told reporters that he got the idea four years ago when he visited Uttara Kannada and came across a farmer in Bhatkal who was using a fake tiger doll to scare away monkeys. It seemed silly, but he tried the idea himself and was surprised to see that it actually worked. However, he was convinced that the toy tiger wouldn't fool the monkeys for long, so he decided to try something else as well. The trick, strange as it might seem, has worked well and the dog has been able to actually scare off the monkeys. This year Gowda not only used hair dye to make his watchdog look like a small tiger, but he also placed large posters of real tigers and his own fake tiger all over his farmland, hoping that they would keep the monkeys at bay. The paint job actually doesn't harm the dog. It’s actually hair dye(染发剂) and lasts up to a month before fading away. 【1】What did the fanner decide to do to protect his crops? A.Raise some tigers B.Draw a dog like tiger C.Set traps for the monkeys D.Make up his dog as a tiger. 【2】Where did Srikant Gowda get his inspiration? A.From a trip. B.From a friend C.From a toy. D.From the Internet 【3】What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A.The dye can do harm to dogs. B.The “paint job” will last for only a month. C.More dogs are likely to be painted like tigers. D.Monkeys will never stop destroying crops. 【4】What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Farmer Is Friendly to Animals B.Farmer Is Good at Drawing Tigers C.Farmer Protects His Crops from Animals D.Farmer Paints His Dog as a Tiger to Scare Away Monkeys |

Transport has a lot to answer for when it comes to harming the planet. While cars and trains are moving towards greener, electric power, emissions（排放）from air travel are expected to increase massively by 2050. If we want big green sky solutions, we need blue sky thinking. Fortunately, there's plenty of that happening right now, particularly the short - haul flights powered by batteries. Harbour Air is the largest seaplane airline in North America, flying 30,000 commercial flights in 40 seaplanes each year. Significantly, all Harbour Air routes last less than 30 minutes, making it perfectly fit for electric engines. "As an airline, we're currently in the process of turning all our planes into electric airplanes. says CEO Greg McDougall. To make this happen, the airline has partnered up with MagniX to create the world's first commercial flight with an electric engine. Making the skies electric isn't just good for the environment, it also makes sound financial sense： a small aircraft uses $ 400 on conventional fuel for a 100 - mile flight, while an electric one costs $ 8 12 for the same distance, and that's before you factor in the higher maintenance costs of a traditional engine. There's also the added bonus that electric planes are just much more pleasant to fly in. No loud engine noise, no smell of fuel, just environmentally friendly peace and quiet. While there has been real progress in the e-plane industry, the technical challenges that remain are keeping everyone's feet firmly on the ground. A battery, even a lithium one, only provides 250 watt-hours per kilogram； compare this to liquid fuel, which has a specific energy of IL 890 watt-hours per kilogram. Carrying adequate batteries, however, would make the plane too heavy to get off the ground. In aircraft, where every bit of weight counts, this can't just be ignored. The transition （过渡 ） from gas to electric in the automobile industry has been made easier by hybrids - vehicles powered by both fuel and electricity. Many believe the same pattern could be followed in the air. Fuel consumption could be reduced as the electric component is switched on at key parts of the journey, especially on take-off and landing. It's certainly an exciting time for electric flying. With companies like Harbour Air taking the lead, battery-powered planes, especially on short-haul journeys, are set to become a reality in the next few years. 【1】According to Para l, what is happening in air transport? A.New explorations of the sky are being launched. B.Pollution caused by batteries is being controlled. C.Efforts are being made to make air travel greener. D.Demand for short-haul flights is increasing massively. 【2】Why is Harbour Air fit for electric flights? A.It runs short routes. B.It has a strong partner. C.Its planes can land on the sea. D.It has planes with powerful engines. 【3】What might be the biggest challenge of electric flying? A.To improve the ground service for e-planes. B.To find qualified technicians for e-plane industry. C.To calculate the energy needed to power e-planes. D.To balance power and weight of batteries in e-planes. 【4】What could be done during the transition from gas to electric in air flight? A.To produce new electric components. B.To increase battery consumption. C.To use mixed - power technology. D.To expand the landing field. 【5】What is the author's attitude towards the prospect of electric flying? A.Short-sighted B.Wait-and-see C.Optimistic D.Skeptical |

I’ve been taking time this week to stop and smell the roses. Literally, I bend over in my neighbors’ front yard, check that nobody is watching, and then bury my head in the flowers. I’ve also been walking into bakeries, walking around without buying anything. After having surgery on my broken nose 18 months ago, I haven’t been able to smell or taste things. This week, however, my nose is back in business. I’ve been overwhelmed by smells, and it’s given me a new way of thinking. A pleasant smell is just one of the little bits and pieces that make life enjoyable, but which we often ignore. I remember once, when my son was five months old, I was carrying him down the street. Wind swept through and almost tipped us over. He threw his little head back and giggled. He’d never felt the wind on his face. When is the last time I laughed at the weather? The first time I ate bacon, I rushed home to my parents, determined that we ate this deliciousness at every meal. My father smiled and agreed. We don’t write postcards about the small things. We don’t frame them in photographs. They aren’t that great or grand, but without them, life is altogether too loud. These quiet experiences give us a chance to enjoy the simple fact of being alive. As my sense of smell returns to me, it’s like I’m smelling things for the first time. They’re full of memories and magic. Food tastes better, and the air is indeed sweet. I know what the poets mean now. It almost makes my broken nose worthwhile. Now, I am waiting for this bandage to come off. There’s an itch I can’t reach! 【1】With the first two paragraphs, the writer mainly tries to . A.give examples of how she kills time B.show that she loves doing secret things C.get readers to wonder about her behavior D.discuss new ways on how to enjoy spare time 【2】What does the underline phrase “a new way of thinking” in paragraph 5 refer to? A.A habit of overcoming ignorance. B.A habit of giving personal consideration. C.An ability to fully use our limited attention. D.An ability to discover the pleasure of small things. 【3】The tone of the story is . A.lively B.sad C.calm D.serious |

Much meaning can be conveyed clearly with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak. 【1】 In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he is sensing that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable. The same in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward other's stare with you that way. Eyes do speak, right? Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. 【2】 If a man glances at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to change his gaze, his intentions are obvious. That is to say, he wishes to attract her attention. However, the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking. 【3】 If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to take over you, you will feel uneasy. A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim. 【4】 In fact, it is quite the contrary. 【5】 They will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time to show affection that words cannot express. Evidently, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation. A.Can you find it annoying sometimes? B.Do you have such kind of experience? C.Honest people tend to look too long at others. D.In this way one tries to tell the other that he is attentive. E.In fact, continuous eye contact is confined to lovers only. F.But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex. G.He wrongly believes it is a sign of honest communication to look straight in the eye. |
