As a child, visiting the zoo was more a punishment than a treat. I didn’t find the chimps’ tea parties funny, nor the bird shows entertaining. Feeding time for seals was less painful, but their performances still seemed like they belonged more in a circus.
And I hated circuses, especially the animal acts — men teasing lions, girls balancing on elephants and monkeys playing football. I knew that every trick a circus animal did was unnatural, achieved through strict training and quite possibly cruelty.
Happily, during my lifetime public attitudes and the law have changed. Circuses using wild animals are now almost extinct, and zoos have definitely evolved.
When my children were young, I occasionally took them to our local zoo. The elephants were in tiny cages and the gorillas looked bored as they sat peeling bananas and staring at teasing visitors. Each cage had a sign which listed the animal’s name and where it came from. But, back then, there was little information included about the environmental challenges they faced.
As a result, environmentalists and animal lovers often oppose zoos. “Animals belong in the wild,” is a common — and understandable — complaint. But what do the animals themselves prefer?
Generally speaking, zoo animals have a longer life. But — you may protest — they are not free. What? Free to be hunted and killed, free to die of hunger or thirst? Maybe sitting in a cage eating bananas isn’t so bad.
Not that such conditions are acceptable in modern zoos, due to the work of BIAZA, the British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums. These days every zoo requires BIAZA’s approval to operate, and the association sets the standards, observes conditions in zoos and develops animal-research programmes, both in the UK and abroad. BIAZA also organizes the animal exchanges between zoos all over the world.
Consequently, today, most zoo animals are born and raised in zoos, live in large, comfortable enclosures and are cared for by well-trained, knowledgeable and caring zoo employees. Of course it’s no substitute for living in the wild but unfortunately this isn’t always possible. Meanwhile, why not visit your local zoo and decide for yourself?
【1】From Paragraph 2, we can guess that the writer believes circus animals__________.
A.should have been placed in zoos
B.were not treated well by their trainers
C.were not as intelligent as those in zoos
D.had much shorter lives than those in the wild
【2】Which of the following statements about zoos would the writer probably agree with?
A.Zoo animals should be freed into the wild.
B.Zoos are more popular now than in the past.
C.Zoo animals are more restricted than in the past
D.Zoos now provide caring living conditions for animals.
【3】What is the best title for the text?
A.Zoos Are Improving B.Zoos or Circuses?
C.Closing Down Circuses D.Life of Animals

Throughout history, music spread among people of different cultures. In today’s technological advanced society, however, people spread music online, sometimes without an artist’s permission. This can lead to many problems, and music companies are now cracking down on this practice. Sharing music online without permission is theft.
Sharing music online prevents recording companies from making money from their efforts. They say that sharing music online has resulted in a huge drop in profits and sales over the past 10 years. People who find music for free online are not paying for CDs or every MP3 downloaded. To truly understand the influence of music piracy (盗版行为) on creators, one must understand how many people are involved in the recording process. For the sale of each album, profits must be shared between musicians, sound engineers, music producers, managers, advertisers, and the company selling the product. Many people believe sharing music only affects the recording artist, but the reality is that sharing hurts business for all companies involved.
There are many people who don’t see the harm in sharing music online and even think they have the right to do it. One online blogger states that he originally paid for an entire CD and that he should be able to do with the material whatever he wants. While he may have legally paid for the music, he does not have the right to provide permission, which means people like the blogger are thieves.
Although we don’t spread today’s music the same way we did before, there’s no doubt that people around the world love to share music. However, internet piracy would prevent musicians from continuing producing albums for fear of theft. Therefore, if people want to continue listening to their favorite artists, they need to buy their music so that artists will make enough profit to continue their music careers.
【1】The underlined phrase “cracking down on” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ___________.
A.bringing up carefully B.speaking highly of
C.dealing seriously with D.destroying completely
【2】What can we infer from the text?
A.Artists are taking action to protect their right.
B.Sharing music files online affects a lot of people.
C.Online music sharing increases sales of music CD.
D.A person who bought a CD has the right to share it online.
【3】How is the text organized?
A.Topic—Argument—Explanation.
B.Opinion—Discussion—Description.
C.Main idea—Comparison—Supporting statements.
D.Introduction—Supporting statements—Conclusion.
【4】What is the main idea of the text?
A.Music piracy is kind of theft. B.Sharing music is Acceptable.
C.Downloading music should be punished. D.Music piracy is good for music lovers.

California will be the first state to ban the sale and manufacture of new fur products.【1】It will go into effect on January 1, 2023.
California’s fur law was one of several bills designed to prevent cruelty to animals. “California is a leader when it comes to animal protection and today that leadership includes banning the sale of fur, ” said Governor Newsom in a news report. “【2】We are making a statement to the world that beautiful wild animals like bears and tigers have no place on trapeze (高空秋千) wires or jumping through flames.”【3】More than a dozen European countries, including the United Kingdom, Austria, Norway and the Netherlands have also passed laws to limit the fur trade.
【4】“The signing of the ban shows the point that today’s customers simply don’t want wild animals to suffer extreme pain and fear while keeping up with the fashion,” said Kitty Block, president and CEO of The Humane Society of the United States and president of Humane Society International. Not everyone, however, was pleased with the ban. Banning the killing of animals for their fur means killing the fur business, says Hyatt, an owner of a fur store.【5】
Many retailers are also ending fur sales. In mid-October, Macy’s (American’s department store) announced it will stop fur from all its stores by the end of 2020. The stores will also close all fur vaults and salons. Other fashion brands such as Prada, Gucci, Michael Kors and Burberry have taken similar steps in recent years.
A.But we are doing more than that.
B.California is taking the lead in protecting animals.
C.Similar laws have been carried out globally already.
D.And that in turn will leave many people unemployed.
E.Two other California cities had already banned fur sales.
F.Not surprisingly, the ban is welcomed by animal rights activists.
G.The ban applies to clothing, shoes, handbags and other things that contain fur.
