26、   Over millions of years， African penguins have developed a keen sense of where to find food． Once they're old enough， they set off from the shores on which they were hatched（孵化） for the first time and swim long distances in search of tasty fish like anchovies and sardines． But they don't search directly for the fish themselves． When African penguins head out to sea， they look for areas with low surface temperatures and high chlorophyll（叶绿素）． Because those conditions signal the presence of algae（藻类）． And lots of algae means lots of plankton（浮游动物）， which in turn means lots of their favorite fish． Well， that's what it used to mean．

Climate change plus overfishing have made the penguin feeding grounds a mirage（海市蜃楼）． The habitat is indeed plankton﹣rich， but now it's fish﹣poor． Researchers call this an "ecological trap．" "It's a situation where you have a signal that previously pointed an animal towards good﹣quality habitat． That habitat has been changed， usually by human pressures． The signal stays， but the quality in the environment gets worse．"

Richard Sherley， a zoologist at the University of Exeter and his team used satellite imaging to track the African penguins from eight sites along southern Africa． Historically， the birds benefited from tons of fish off the coasts of Angola， Namibia and western South Africa， but now they're going hungry．

"I was really hoping we'd see them going east， and finding areas which the fish had moved to but it ends up being quite a sad story for the penguins．" said Richard．

The researchers calculate that by falling into this ecological trap， African penguin populations on South Africa's Western Cape have declined by around 80 percent．

Some research groups are exploring the idea of moving them to a place where they can't get trapped， like the Eastern Cape． But Sherley thinks that a solution in the long run means making and carrying out rules to create more sustainable（可持续的） fishing industry， which needs public support．

【1】How do penguins find their food？

A. They discover fish with their keen sense．

B. They swim long distances directly for fish．

C. They make signals to each other when finding fish．

D. They look for warmer and greener areas．

【2】What is an ecological trap for the African penguins？

A. A trap set to catch penguins．

B. A good fish habitat with few fish．

C. A habitat rich in plankton．

D. A mirage on the sea．

【3】What can be done to help the penguins in the long run？

A. Move the penguins to other places．

B. Create nature reserves for penguins．

C. Keep a balanced fishing industry．

D. Increase the population of penguins．

【4】What is the main idea of the passage？

A. African penguins are losing their habitats．

B. African penguins are falling into ecological traps．

C. A sustainable development is needed．

D. African penguin populations have declined．

27、Science has just proven what we’ve suspected all along that sitting at a desk all day could be making us fat．According to a new study women who work in an office are consuming a shocking 100，030 extra calories in snacks every year—which can add up to a terrifying two stone in weight gain．Yikes!

The research quizzed 1，000 women who work in offices and revealed that on a typical working day women prefer to have at least three snacks，which adds up to almost 500 calories．

Crisps were named as the top weak point of female workers，with an average of 135 bags eaten at work annually and 45 per cent of those surveyed admitting to having “hidden” food personally in the office．Unsurprisingly biscuits were also a favorite desk snack with 39％admitting to hiding away packets of biscuits and the average woman dipping 135 biscuits in their tea every year．Office“cake culture’’ likely has a role to play in the ninety slices of cake women are wolfing down each year．The study also revealed we’re indulging(放纵)our sweet tooth by ploughing through 90 packets of sweets and 45 doughnuts throughout the working year．

Just over a fifth of female workers admit they have absolutely no willpower when it comes to office treats，while three in ten say they eat the food purely because it's there．Women also mentioned being bored，tired or stressed as common reasons for them to eat more in the office．

The survey revealed that so-called “low fat’’ treats are actually adding to that yearly calorific total，with the average female employee consuming 45 packets of high-fat nuts and another 45 bags of sugary dried fruits，every year．The most popular times to reach for a snack are 10：30 am and 3：30 pm，with 48％ of women saying they are always too hungry to wait until lunch．Women also admitted sugary coffees and energy drinks help get them through the day．

【1】How did the researchers find the result of their study?

A. They found it met their expectation．   B. They felt confused and puzzled．

C. They found it quite amusing．   D. They felt quite surprised．

【2】Women have snacks almost at any time because they_______________.

A. are free to go out when hungry

B. have put them away in advance

C. have too little work to do in the office

D. have the same favourite food with the colleagues

【3】When are women more likely to have snacks in their office?

A. When they have finished hard jobs．

B. When they get their new work started．

C. When they feel tired or anxious．

D. When they feel relaxed and comfortable．

【4】What does the passage want to tell us?

C. Female workers have more power in offices．

D. Women working in offices are easy to get fat．

28、   Undesired side-effects and toxicities of drugs, especially in the area of new-drug development are unpredictable and often disastrous. 【1】 . These drugs are either over-the-counter medicine or health nutritional supplements. Patients are convinced that the pills will work wonders inside their bodies. That’s why they usually buy them and take them blindly.

In order for a chemical to be considered a safe drug, it must prove safe and its benefits outweigh the risks through experiments. 【2】. Drugs are approved only after tests have demonstrated that they are relatively safe when used as directed. Thus some very dangerous drugs are approved because they are necessary to treat serious illnesses.

Many people suffer ill effects from drugs called side effects, even though they take the drug exactly as directed. The human population contains a great variety of genetic variation, but drugs are tested on just a few thousand people. 【3】.

Even though the drug has been tested. A patient may also acquire a tolerance for a certain drug, which means the patient has to take even larger doses to produce the desired effect. 【4】. Thus the person becomes so dependent on the drug that he or she will have severe psychological and physical disturbances when the drug is taken away. This will cause great trouble to the patient.

A.When a particular drug is taken by millions, some people may not respond in a predictable way

B.This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur.

C.Tolerance may lead to addiction.

D.However, no substance that has the power to do this is completely safe.

E.Side-effects of drugs are usually provided when patients are advised by doctors to take them.

F.So we should take as little medicine as possible

29、First aid is emergency care for a victim of sudden illness or injury until more skillful medical treatment is available. First aid may save a life or improve certain vital signs including pulse, temperature, a clear airway, and breathing. In minor emergencies, first aid may prevent a victim’s condition from worsening and provide relief from pain. First aid must be given as quickly as possible. In the case of seriously injured, a few minutes can make the difference between complete recovery and loss of life.

First aid measures depend upon a victim’s needs and provider’s level of knowledge and skill. Knowing what not to do in an emergency is as important as knowing what to do. Improperly moving a person with a neck injury, for example, can lead to permanent spinal (脊柱的)injury.

Despite the variety of injuries possible, several basic rules of first aid apply to all emergencies. The first step is to call for professional medical help. The victim, if conscious(有意识的), should be reassured that medical aid has been requested, and ask for permission to provide any first aid. Next, assess(评估)the scene, asking other people or the injured person’s family or friends about details of the injury or illness. The victim should be checked for the medical card that describes special medical conditions. Unless the accident scene becomes unsafe or the victim may suffer further injury, do not move the victim.

First aid requires rapid assessment of victims to determine whether life-threatening conditions exist. One method for assessing a victim’s condition is known by ABC, which stands for:

A—Airway: Is it open and clear

B—Breathing: Is the person breathing? Look, listen, and feel for breathing.

C—Circulation: Is there a pulse? Is the person bleeding extremely? Check skin color and temperature for additional signs of circulation problems.

【1】How can first aid help victims?

A．By sending them to the hospital.

B．By providing a surgery for them

C．By avoiding their sudden illnesses or injuries.

D．By preventing their condition from worsening.

【2】What does the author want to tell in the second paragraph?

A．Providers’ first aid knowledge and skills are very important.

B．Knowing what not to do is more important than other skills.

C．First aid should follow the victims’ words first.

D．A neck injury is a very serious illness.

【3】What can we learn about ABC?

A．It is a first aid brochure.

B．It is a kind of assessment method.

C．C stands for checking the things of victims.

D．Airway means air environment around victims.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A．Various Emergencies Calling for First Aid

B．The Importance of First Aid

C．Some Basic Knowledge About First Aid

D．The History and Development of First Aid
