The Amur Leopards that lived in the snowy and remote areas of Northern China and Korea were already few and rare. And now due to road building, over logging, and illegal hunting, this beautiful species is also about to die out. In fact, a recent survey showed there are only 14 to 20 adults which have been confirmed to be living in a forest.·*网 The Javan Rhinoceros
If you thought that of all the rhinoceros species, the Black Rhino was an endangered one, think again. Because according to a survey, it is estimated that only 40 to 60 of the Javan rhinos are left remaining in the Ujung Kulon National Park, which is located on the western part of an island in Indonesia. Facing extinction because of its precious horns, this rare species came under protection. However, people still might not be

The Northern Right Whale got its name back in the 1970s by people who were making sure it would go extinct quickly — the fishermen. The Right Whale possesses good quantities of oil which is why it is hunted down. Moreover, it floats atop water when dead. It makes it easy to handle.

It’s hard to imagine finishing a meal of beef with broccoli without a fortune cookie. It’s like the sudden stop at the end of a wonderful sentence.
However, there is quite an agreement over who actually invented them.
David Jung, a Chinese immigrant (移民) living in Los Angeles who founded the Hong Kong Noodle Company, claims to have invented fortune cookies in 1918 — though no one seems to know where the recipe or idea came from.
The alternative and generally accepted story is that they were invented in San Francisco by a Japanese immigrant. Makoto Hagiwara was the landscape designer who created the Japanese Tea Garden in Golden Gate Park. According to Hagiwara, the fortune cookie was based on a Japanese
treat called tsujiura senbei. He sweetened the recipe to appeal to American tastes, enclosed (附上) thank-you notes in the cookies, and served them to his guests with tea. Depending on which account you read, Hagiwara began distributing (分发) the cookies in either 1907 or 1914, but in any case they clearly made their appearance well before the 1918 date claimed by Jung. Within a few years, however, Chinese restaurant owners in San Francisco had copied the recipe, replacing the thank-you notes with fortunes. The rest, as they say, is history.
To speed up the process of forming fortune cookies — originally performed awkwardly with chopsticks — Edward Louie invented a folding machine for his Lotus Fortune Cookie Company, which is still in existence today in San Francisco. Now mass produced and widely distributed, the fortune cookie is exported to China and Hong Kong with fortunes written in English. Most popular in the United States, the cookies continue to lift spirits with promises of great success, love, fame and good fortune. Some fortune cookie sayings include “Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clear to the bone” and “Belief is thought at rest”. 46. When having a meal of beef with broccoli, Americans often . A. make promises about their future B. expect to get a fortune cookie C. try to make some delicious food first D. try to predict the future of their own
47. The author tends to believe . A. fortune cookies came from China

Here are four of the ten most endangered species of animals around the world.
The Ivory-Billed Woodpecker (象牙嘴啄木鸟)
Among our list of ten most endangered species, the ivory-billed woodpecker is believed to be the one that is most endangered. In fact, they are so endangered that they are believed to be even extinct by now. They were found in the southeastern area of the US and Cuba. Some
picture when fitted together.
It is generally agreed that John Spilsbury, a teacher in England, created the first jigsaw puzzle in 1767 “for the purpose of teaching geography”. Sticking his maps to the flat hardwood, he used a fine saw (锯条) to cut along the borders of the European countries, and the jigsaw puzzle was born. Soon, people began making pictorial (图形的) jigsaw puzzles. Their purpose was to entertain rather than to teach.
Most modern jigsaw puzzles are made out of cardboard, since they are easier and cheaper to mass-produce. An enlarged photograph or printed reproduction of a painting or other two-dimensional (二维的) artwork is glued onto the cardboard before cutting. This board is then fed into a press (印刷机). The press forces a set of steel follow board (模板) of the desired shape through the board until it is fully cut.
Typical images found on jigsaw puzzles include scenes from nature, buildings and repetitive designs. Castles and mountains are two traditional subjects. However, any kind of picture can be used to make a jigsaw puzzle; some companies offer to turn a personal photograph into a puzzle.
Jigsaw puzzles could occupy one’s time enjoyably for hours. And, of course, a jigsaw puzzle was “recyclable,” in that one could break the puzzle up once one had completed it and then pass it on to another family member or friend. Another point to bear in mind is that jigsaw puzzle
enthusiasts discover that working on a jigsaw puzzle is a great way to rce stress!
According to the Alzheimer Society of Canada, doing jigsaw puzzles is one of many activities that can help keep the brain active and may contribute to rcing the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (阿尔茨海默氏病). These days, free online jigsaw puzzles with beautiful pictures and puzzle cuts are available. You may also control the level of difficulty. You may use the online jigsaw puzzle maker to quickly create your own puzzles from your favorite pictures and photos. 51.

Which of the following can be the best title for this
D. it can make people get B. it can combine pleasure with
received from our parents. However, we can work on developing a good character and choose how we express ourselves. But meeting John in the hospital made me realize how uncontrollable our personalities can become sometimes.
John was once the manager of a building company, and was the man who would like to go to get things done. He took charge of lots of workers, and had great ability in his work. At home, he was a family man. However, five years ago, John suffered serious damage in his brain. It led to bleeding and subsequent (后来的) damage to the front part of his head, which is known to control our ability to judge what’s good and bad, to reason, and to control many of our activities. Ever since then, nothing was the same for John nor his family. John didn’t become paralyzed (瘫痪的) or lose the ability to speak like many patients do. In fact, he was quite active and spoke fluently and quite a lot. John, however, was a different person, and the man his wife and family knew is no longer there. Ever since the accident, John became totally different as if he no longer cared about what he said anymore or how people thought about him. During our meeting, John was easy, excited, and happy, but he often threw out words which were considered to be improper for the time and place. Despite being at a medical office for his condition, he often spoke off-topic and joked around a lot. His attention was short, and he didn’t remember things very well. According to his wife, he no longer feels the
need to brush his teeth, to take a bath, and do other daily activities unless he’s told to do so, and his wife finds herself managing him as if he were a child needing to be told everything that needs to be done. This is quite unexpected from a man who was once managing a large company and raising a family with children. Today, he no longer works, and is being taken care of by his loving wife who never forgets the man who he was. I’ve seen many patients who had strokes (中风) during my turn in the hospital. Of those who survive, some people may lose their ability to walk, while others may lose their sight. But my meeting with John made me realize that the most heart-breaking for me to see is those who lose their personalities, which makes us who we are. 56. The author wrote this passage mainly to . A. explain what the personality is.
B. record the change of Mr. John in personality. C. show the bad result of brain harm. D. tell us how to protect our brain properly.
57. From this passage we can know that Mr. John used to be ..-- A. a very happy man
B. a man with a high position in a company C. a skilled worker in a large company D. careful with everything he did
58. How different was John after he suffered the harm in his head?2-1-c-n-j-y
A. He became much happier than before. B. He received more care from his families. C. He lost control of his words and actions. D. He couldn’t speak as well as he used to. 59. What does the author think makes us who we are? A. Our knowledge. C. Our personalities.
B. Our genes. D. Our determination.
60. What attitude does the author have towards Mr. John? A. Pitiful. C. Pleased.
B. Puzzled. D. Uncertain.
第二节 下面文章中有5个段落需要添加首句(第61-65题)。请从下列选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中选出适合各段落的首句。选项中有一项是多余选项。【版权所有:】 A. Limit the use of disposable cups. B. Try to avoid using electricity. C. Limit the use of your car. D. Use fluorescent light bulbs. E. Buy green and avoid waste. F. Recycling means a lot.
Ways to make your school a green campus
There are plenty of things that universities have been doing to make schools green campuses, but there are also a lot of things that students can do to make a green campus and support an eco-lifestyle. Here are some ideas for you to make your campus a more eco-friendly campus.
61. The amount of paper a college student uses per semester is unbelievable. The paper may be class notes, scrap copies, term papers, student newspapers, graphs and pictures printed out and countless other random items. We know that these things can’t be avoided, but the way you handle the use of all the paper can really help create a better green campus. Look for recycling bins by garbage bins, dorms, restaurants and classrooms.
62. Whether you’re in a dorm or moving into your first off-campus apartment, the temptation to buy disposable (一次性的) cups is huge. However, this not only is bad for the environment, but it’s bad for your student finances as well. Buy cheaper plastic cups. Wash these
by hand or throw them in the dish washer if you have one.
63. This is a good bit of advice for those college students who are paying their own electric bills. The fluorescent (荧光的) bulbs might be slightly more expensive than regular ones, but will decrease your energy intake, last longer and save you money. These are good for dorms as well. This light is a lot more pleasant and environmentally efficient than overhead dorm lighting.
64. Most campuses, especially those that are trying to become a more eco-friendly campus, have pretty good public transit. On top of that, almost all universities are pedestrian (为行人而设的). Walking or biking will help make your campus a green university. If you must drive, try to find others who need to as well, and carpool to save emissions, remembering to avoid the freshman (or sophomore, or junior) walkers.
65. Buy recycled goods as much as possible. The recycled goods are slightly more expensive than the normal products, but it’s worth it to make a green campus. Not only will the recycled goods conserve the earth’s natural resources, but will also help protect the environment by saving the waste on your campus, which will keep your campus green. 第三部分 写作(共两节,满分40分)
