　　In the middle of the night， a baby chimpanzee （黑猩猩） is having nightmares.Chantal， his caretaker， tries to calm him down.She works at the Tchimpounga Chimpanzee Rehabilitation Center， in the Republic of the Congo， in Africa.The chimp’s name is George.He was taken from his mother by hunters.Finally， he was rescued and taken to the sanctuary （鳥獸保護(hù)區(qū)）， where Chantal helped him make friends with other chimpanzees.“We rescue chimps from terrible conditions and help them to live in the wild like other chimpanzees，” Chantal said， “They need to learn chimp behavior.”
　　Chimpanzees meet a lot difficulties because people cut down forest and illegal （非法的） wildlife trade.Their population， numbering in the millions a century ago， could be down to 172，000.This makes the work of the Tchimpounga Sanctuary even more important.
　　When opening in 1992， Tchimpounga had space for 60 chimpanzees.It has been made larger to the size of a hundred football fields， and is home to around 150 chimps.Many live on islands with thick forest in the Kouilou River.In that environment， the chimps are prepared for a possible return to the wild.The sanctuary also works with the government to reduce illegal trade in animals.Tchimpounga’s head veterinarian （獸醫(yī)） Rebeca Atencia said， “We have effectively reduced the arrival of orphan （孤兒） chimpanzees to Tchimpounga.We’ve received only one orphan chimp over the past three years.”
　　The chimps have shown that they understand the sanctuary staff’s efforts.“Saving the life of a chimpanzee is very gratifying，” Atencia says.“Chimpanzees know when you’ve helped them or saved their life.Sometimes， they thank you with a hug.”
　　As the leader of Jane Goodall Institute （JGI）， Atencia also works with people who live near the sanctuary.These people depend on the forest for food and building houses， and their growing population is a danger to chimps.JGI helps the people in these places get healthcare， clean water， and others.This makes them less dependent on the area’s natural resources and reduces illegal trade in chimps.At present， there are islands within the sanctuary where the chimps can be safe from wild chimpanzees and hunters.And they’re still under the care of the sanctuary staff.
1.What happened to chimps after they were taken to the sanctuary？
A.They got together with their mothers.
B.They were trained to comfort social workers.
C.They were taught how to live a usual life.
D.They were used for scientific experiments.
2.How does Rebeca Atencia probably find the sanctuary’s work？
A.It was dangerous and cost a lot of money at first. B.It has received lots of support.
C.It hardly saves adult chimps. D.It is a success.
3.What does the underlined word “gratifying” in Paragraph 4 mean？
A.Challenging. B.Interesting.
C.Pleasing. D.Tiring.
4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph？
A.Supporting local people is good for chimp protection.
B.More efforts should be made to care for wild chimps.
C.The chimp population in the sanctuary has grown quickly.
D.People near the sanctuary depend on tourists to increase income.
B
　　Cows produce much methane （甲烷）， the world’s second worst greenhouse gas， as they break down the grass.They are a large source of the greenhouse gases that are driving climate change.Now scientists have shown the pollution from cows can be reduced by adding a little seaweed （海藻） to their food.
　　The researchers from the University of California studied 21 cows on a farm for about five months.They taught the cows to get their food from inside a special hood， which allowed the scientists to know the amount of the methane the cows were giving off.They used a small amount of seaweed， which they mixed with the cows’ food.
　　The consequences were surprisingly good.In some cases， the cows produced 82% less methane.The improvement depended on the kind of food the cows were given.Even the worst-polluting cows produced 33% less methane.Over the five months， the scientists didn’t see any signs that the cows’ stomachs were getting used to the seaweed and starting to produce more methane again.What’s more， the cows that were fed seaweed gained just as much weight as the other cows.
　　But there are still some big problems with the idea of feeding cows seaweed.For one thing， there’s not enough seaweed to feed all of the cows in the world.So farmers would have to figure out a way to grow lots of seaweed.A bigger problem is that for most of their lives， cows live in the fields， where they eat grass.That means there’s no chance to feed them seaweed every day.
　　Still， as the study shows， something as simple as feeding cows seaweed can help reduce some of the pollution causing the climate crisis.
5.Why did the researchers carry out the study？
A.To improve the cows’ living conditions.
B.To test the effects of the seaweed.
C.To measure the amount of methane produced by cows.
D.To discover healthier grass to reduce the pollution from cows.　
6.What’s the third paragraph mainly about？
A.The background of the subjects. B.The process of the research.
C.The content of the experiment. D.The results of the study.
7.What is the biggest challenge in the researchers’ opinion？
A.Seaweed is pretty rare in the world. B.It’s hard to mix seaweed with grass.
C.Cows can hardly have daily access to seaweed. D.Cows fed with seaweed gained weight easily.
8.What is the author’s attitude towards the findings？
A.Doubtful. B.Positive.
C.Unclear. D.Negative.

　　Ali and his younger sister， Zahra， lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job， and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months， the landlord was breathing down their necks （盯著他們）.
　　One day， Ali took Zahra’s shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed， but he lost them on the way home. It wasn’t until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed， so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra agreed and the two decided to share Ali’s running shoes. Zahra’s school hours were in the morning， so she would wear them first. After school， she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to his school， which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could， Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.
　　Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the city. When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes， he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.

　　In Chinese culture， the red-crowned crane has long been regarded as a symbol of happiness and good luck.It is one of the largest cranes in the world， standing at about 150 cm tall.The feathers of the bird are as white as snow， except for some black ones on its face， neck and wings.Its unique feature， from which it gets its name， is the bright red skin on the top of its head.The red-crowned crane is found in China， Russia， Mongolia， Japan and the Korean Peninsula.In China， it spends the warmer months in the rivers and wetlands in the north-east.When the weather gets cold， it migrates to east-central China.Its food includes fish， snails and water plants.It only breeds where the natural habitat is safe.Thanks to increasing protection measures， the number of red-crowned cranes in China is on the rise. 【學(xué)語言】 本文主要介紹了中國的一種珍稀動(dòng)物——丹頂鶴。范文介紹了丹頂鶴在中國文化中的寓意、外形特征、棲息地以及遷徙行為和飲食習(xí)慣。時(shí)態(tài)主要運(yùn)用了一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)，人稱以第三人稱為主；語言上使用as ...as結(jié)構(gòu)，把丹頂鶴的羽毛比喻成白雪。 另外，作者運(yùn)用了高級(jí)句式，如使用動(dòng)詞-ing短語作定語、“介詞＋關(guān)系代詞”引導(dǎo)定語從句等，給文章增色不少。 【學(xué)結(jié)構(gòu)】 文化寓意→總體介紹（世界上最大的鶴之一）→具體介紹（外形特征、棲息地、遷徙行為、飲食習(xí)慣）→現(xiàn)狀

Step 1　品教材課文
In Chinese culture， the red-crowned crane has long been regarded as a symbol of happiness and good luck.It is one of the largest cranes in the world， standing at about 150 cm tall.The feathers of the bird are as white as snow， except for some black ones on its face， neck and wings.Its unique feature， from which it gets its name， is the bright red skin on the top of its head.The red-crowned crane is found in China， Russia， Mongolia， Japan and the Korean Peninsula.In China，
it spends the warmer months in the rivers and wetlands in the north-
east.When the weather gets cold， it migrates to east-central China.Its
food includes fish， snails and water plants.It only breeds where the
natural habitat is safe.Thanks to increasing protection measures， the
number of red-crowned cranes in China is on the rise.
Step 2　析寫作手法
【學(xué)語言】
本文主要介紹了中國的一種珍稀動(dòng)物——丹頂鶴。范文介紹了丹頂鶴在中國文化中的寓意、外形特征、棲息地以及遷徙行為和飲食習(xí)慣。
時(shí)態(tài)主要運(yùn)用了一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)，人稱以第三人稱為主；語言上使用
as ...as結(jié)構(gòu)，把丹頂鶴的羽毛比喻成白雪。
另外，作者運(yùn)用了高級(jí)句式，如使用動(dòng)詞-ing短語作定語、“介詞＋
關(guān)系代詞”引導(dǎo)定語從句等，給文章增色不少。
【學(xué)結(jié)構(gòu)】
文化寓意→總體介紹（世界上最大的鶴之一）→具體介紹（外形特
征、棲息地、遷徙行為、飲食習(xí)慣）→現(xiàn)狀

　　In the middle of the night， a baby chimpanzee （黑猩猩） is having
nightmares.Chantal， his caretaker， tries to calm him down.She works
at the Tchimpounga Chimpanzee Rehabilitation Center， in the Republic
of the Congo， in Africa.The chimp’s name is George.He was taken
from his mother by hunters.Finally， he was rescued and taken to the
sanctuary （鳥獸保護(hù)區(qū)）， where Chantal helped him make friends
with other chimpanzees.“We rescue chimps from terrible conditions and
help them to live in the wild like other chimpanzees，” Chantal said，
“They need to learn chimp behavior.”
　　Chimpanzees meet a lot difficulties because people cut down forest
and illegal （非法的） wildlife trade.Their population， numbering in
the millions a century ago， could be down to 172，000.This makes the
work of the Tchimpounga Sanctuary even more important.
　　When opening in 1992， Tchimpounga had space for 60
chimpanzees.It has been made larger to the size of a hundred football
fields， and is home to around 150 chimps.Many live on islands with
thick forest in the Kouilou River.In that environment， the chimps are
prepared for a possible return to the wild.The sanctuary also works with
　　the government to reduce illegal trade in animals.Tchimpounga’s head veterinarian （獸醫(yī)） Rebeca Atencia said， “We have effectively
reduced the arrival of orphan （孤兒） chimpanzees to Tchimpounga.
We’ve received only one orphan chimp over the past three years.”
The chimps have shown that they understand the sanctuary staff’s
efforts.“Saving the life of a chimpanzee is very gratifying，” Atencia
says.“Chimpanzees know when you’ve helped them or saved their
life.Sometimes， they thank you with a hug.”
　　As the leader of Jane Goodall Institute （JGI）， Atencia also works
with people who live near the sanctuary.These people depend on the forest
for food and building houses， and their growing population is a danger to
chimps.JGI helps the people in these places get healthcare， clean
water， and others.This makes them less dependent on the area’s natural
resources and reduces illegal trade in chimps.At present， there are
islands within the sanctuary where the chimps can be safe from wild
chimpanzees and hunters.And they’re still under the care of the
sanctuary staff.

　　Cows produce much methane （甲烷）， the world’s second worst
greenhouse gas， as they break down the grass.They are a large source of
the greenhouse gases that are driving climate change.Now scientists have
shown the pollution from cows can be reduced by adding a little seaweed
（海藻） to their food.
　　The researchers from the University of California studied 21 cows on
a farm for about five months.They taught the cows to get their food from
inside a special hood， which allowed the scientists to know the amount of
the methane the cows were giving off.They used a small amount of
seaweed， which they mixed with the cows’ food.
　　The consequences were surprisingly good.In some cases， the cows
produced 82% less methane.The improvement depended on the kind of
food the cows were given.Even the worst-polluting cows produced 33%
less methane.Over the five months， the scientists didn’t see any signs
that the cows’ stomachs were getting used to the seaweed and starting to
produce more methane again.What’s more， the cows that were fed
seaweed gained just as much weight as the other cows.
　　But there are still some big problems with the idea of feeding cows
seaweed.For one thing， there’s not enough seaweed to feed all of the
cows in the world.So farmers would have to figure out a way to grow lots
of seaweed.A bigger problem is that for most of their lives， cows live in
the fields， where they eat grass.That means there’s no chance to feed
them seaweed every day.
　　Still， as the study shows， something as simple as feeding cows
seaweed can help reduce some of the pollution causing the climate crisis.

5. Why did the researchers carry out the study？
A. To improve the cows’ living conditions.
B. To test the effects of the seaweed.
C. To measure the amount of methane produced by cows.
D. To discover healthier grass to reduce the pollution from cows.
解析：　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的They used a small amount
of seaweed， which they mixed with the cows’ food.及第三段內(nèi)容
可知，研究人員進(jìn)行這項(xiàng)研究是為了測試海藻的影響。
6. What’s the third paragraph mainly about？
A. The background of the subjects.
B. The process of the research.
C. The content of the experiment.
D. The results of the study.
解析：　段落大意題。根據(jù)第三段可知，第三段主要講的是這項(xiàng)
研究的結(jié)果。

A. Seaweed is pretty rare in the world.
B. It’s hard to mix seaweed with grass.
C. Cows can hardly have daily access to seaweed.
D. Cows fed with seaweed gained weight easily.
解析：　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段最后兩句可知，研究人員
認(rèn)為最大的挑戰(zhàn)是牛很難每天吃到海藻。
8. What is the author’s attitude towards the findings？
A. Doubtful. B. Positive.
C. Unclear. D. Negative.
解析：　觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。根據(jù)最后一段可知，作者認(rèn)為給牛喂海藻
可以減少污染。由此推知，作者對這些發(fā)現(xiàn)的態(tài)度是積極的。

but he lost them on the way home. It wasn’t until he got home that he
realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be
angry and disappointed， so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Zahra
agreed and the two decided to share Ali’s running shoes. Zahra’s
school hours were in the morning， so she would wear them first. After
school， she would rush back and give them to Ali. He could then run to
his school， which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he
could， Ali often arrived late and was warned by the school.
　　Ali heard about a long distance race that was held for the boys in the
city. When he learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes， he
decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.
　　The day of race arrived. Ali had a strong start， but halfway through
the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache.

參考范文：
　　He looked forward and found three boys running ahead of
him.Tiredness and anxiety welled up in his heart， reminding him of his
promise to Zahra.Regardless of his aching legs， Ali clenched his teeth，
wiped the sweat off his forehead， and headed for the boys in front of
him.Catching up with one boy， he felt a sense of achievement.He
gathered all his strength and the finishing line was within a stone’s
throw.However， without any warning he fell over， unconscious.
　　When Ali came to life， he was already at home.Opening his eyes，
he eyed Zahra sitting beside his bed， concerned and anxious.A big smile
spread across her face.“You did it， my dear brother.”She yelled as she
waved a pair of new shoes high in the air.Only then did Ali realize that he
won the third prize.Ali and his sister kissed the prized shoes over and over
again， grinning from ear to ear.The whole room was filled with warmth
with a ray of golden sunshine shining through.
