Soon after Mr. & Mrs. Bacchus started farming their little patch of land, they faced a major problem —— a plague of birds fed on their precious crops. Then, a man stopped on the road outside their house, and asked the couple if he could take photographs of the birds on the property. Afterwards, he suggested that instead of trying to get rid of the birds. they should instead learn to live alongside them,and Maraksacha Reserve was born.
Today, the couple credit this man, the celebrated bird photographer Manu Espinosa, with changing their lives, and helping them persuade others of the vital importance of conservation in this region.
Birding tourism is flourishing in Ecuador, with increasing numbers of specialist tour groups.Ecuador contains a variety of ecosystems at differing elevations, which helps explain why it's among the top 10 countries in the world for bird diversity. The country is home to over 1,600 bird species ——nearly double the number found in all of Europe —— within an area just slightly larger than the UK.
As the business of birding grows, more and more farmers are switching their land from agriculture to bird reserves, benefiting not just the birds, but the country's economy too. One notable example is the Ajila family, who have devoted themselves to preserving the vlong-wattled umbrella bird. On his land near Recinto, landowner Luis Ajila has switched from dairy farming to conservation, replanting trees and promoting the site to wildlife tourists —— work that he says is a better livelihood than farming.
“Wildlife tourism is much more profitable than farming, but that wasn't our only motivation,”says Luis Jr., Ajila’ s son. “We aimed to protect not just the umbrella bird, but all the unique wildlife here, safeguarding them for future generations.”
Since 2005, Angel Paz has transformed his former dairy farm into a bird reserve. At first, things didn't go to plan: it took a month for the first visitor to arrive, and he paid just $10 for a four-hour tour.Since then, however, thousands of people have made the pilgrimage. “I have protected my home and its birdlife for almost two decades, and finally watched the wildlife —— and the people who visit ——flourish,” Angel Paz says.
24. What advice did the photographer give to the couple
A. Photographing the birds. B. Taking care of their property.
C. Coexisting with the birds. D. Protecting their precious crops.
25. What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about
A. How Ecuador is geographically unique.
B. What makes Ecuador a birding destination.
C. What distinguishes Ecuador's biodiversity
D. How birding tourism is operated in Ecuador.
26. What have the Ajila family achieved
A. Helping other farmers shake off poverty.
B. Applying new technology in modern farming.
C. Changing the landscapes of their residential areas.
D. Combining profitability with sustainability.
27. What can we learn from Angel Paz's story
A. It takes time to bear fruit. B. The early bird catches the worm.
C Well begun is half done. D. The secret to success is adaptability.
C
Most people can recall a time when they were in a bad mood after a long day at work and the burista(咖啡师) gave them a warm smile Or maybe they overheard their bus-mate speaking German and ended up filling the morning commute (通勤) with a stimulating conversation about an upcoming trip Strangers are around you most of the day, and what if you spend time interacting with them Anew approach urges just that.
The Atlantic examines the benefits of speaking to strangers by discussing the work of psychologistGillian Sandstrom. She considered herself an introvert(内向的人) growing up. However, about a decade ago, she started experimenting with talking to strangers. It was awkward at the beginning, but eventually Sandstrom got better at making positive connections with or smiling at the people she passed every day, and it made her feel better.
Strangers represent possible relationships and interactions. If you take the time to drop a warm smile or a kind word to a stranger, at worst this interaction couldn't be reciprocated. At best, you can sometimes have an extended conversation with a stranger, learn something interesting from them, or make a new friend.
Nicholas Epley, a psychologist at the University of Chicago conducted a study, in which participants spoke to strangers on public transportation during their morning commutes. Not only did the group speaking to strangers report having a more enjoyable commute, but conversations with seatmates lasted, on average, 14.2 minutes.
According to Epley, loneliness was one of the most dangerous social stressors and was even more physically harmful than overweight. “It's larger than air pollution and it’s larger than physical activity and exercise,” he said. Making connections with those around us could ease loneliness and its harmful impacts.
Considering all the benefits of conversing with strangers, why not take advantage of being around people you don't know Flash a smile or start up a conversation, and you may make two persons’ day better.
28. Why does the author mention the examples in the first paragraph
A. To show the value of a warm smile.
B. To introduce the topic of interactions with strangers.
C. To find spots for talking with strangers.
D. To put forward the communication methods.
29. What does the underlined word“reciprocated” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Responded. B. Remembered.
C. Evaluated. D. Employed.
30. What can we learn from Epley's study
A. Physical activity helps to reduce loneliness.
B. Most commuters tend to talk with strangers.
C. Social interactions make participants less stressed.
D. Participants remove their negative emotions totally.
31. What is the text mainly about
A. Social interactions for stress relief.
B. Importance of talks during commutes.
C. Skills of getting along with strangers.
D. Benefits of interacting with strangers.
D
We are all aware of the damaging pollution that's created by driving petrol and diesel (柴油)vehicles. Many of the world's cities are blocked with traffic, creating fumes(烟气) containing gases such as nitrogen oxides. The solution for a clcaner, greener future could be electric vehicles. But how opt m stic should we be Therc was much excitement last year when the UK government announced it would ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030. But is that easier said than done
The road to global traffic being totally electric is still a long way off. Currently, battery life is an issue —— a fully charged battery won't take you as far as a full tank of petrol. There are also limited numbers of charging points to plug an EV into. Of course, technology is always improving. Some of the biggest tech companies, like Google and Tesla, are spending huge amounts of money developing clectric cars. And most of the big car manufacturers(制造商) are now making them too. Colin Herron,a consultant on low-carbon vehicle technology, told the BBC:“The big leap (跳跃) forward will come with solid state batteries, which will appear first in mobile phones and laptops before they progress to cars.” These will charge more quickly and give cars a bigger range. Cost is another issue that may discourage people switching to electric power. But some countries offer incentive, such as cutting prices by reducing import taxes, and not charging for road tax and parking. Some also provide exclusive lanes(专用道) for electric cars to be driven on, overtaking traditional cars which might be stuck in jams.
These kinds of measures have made Norway the country with the most electric cars per capita (人均) at more than thirty electric cars per 1000 inhabitants. But Colin Herron warns that“electric motoring” doesn't mean a zero-carbon future. “It's emission-free motoring, but the car has to be built,the battery has to be built, and the electricity does come from somewhere.” Maybe it's time to think about making fewer journeys or using public transport.
32. What can we infer from the question at the end of paragraph 1
A. Electric vehicles will not resolve the traffic problems.
B. We should be pessimistic about the future of electric cars.
C. It's not a good idea to replace petrol vehicles with electric ones.
D. It's not easy to attain a greener future by means of electric vehicles.
33. What does the underlined word“incentive” mean in paragraph 2
A. payment.
B. income.
C. encouragement.
D. method
34. Which statement is true according to the passage
A. Electric vehicles will create a zero-carbon future.
B. Electric cars might not get stuck in traffic jams in the future.
C. There are four barriers on the road to global traffic being totally electric.
D. Putting solid-state batteries in electric cars first will be a“great leap forward”.
35. What is the most suitable title for the text
A. Total Electric Traffic: a Long Way to Go
B. Electric Power or Petrol:a Tough Decision to Make
C. Electric Vehicles: a Road to a Greener Future
D. Petrol and Diesel Vehicles:a Main source of Gases

Jenny has been a vet (兽医) for many years. Throughout her practice, there have been many unusual cases. Some were quite sad and some were even funny. But most of all she remembered one time on a rainy day a little girl came to her with her little guinea pig(豚鼠).
She was in tears and asked Jenny to save her beloved pet. “This is my only friend. I really love myDorothy,” the girl said. Jenny examined the animal and realized that it was very ill. The pig looked young. Probably, it was already sick when it was sold to the girl. The vet saw many children's tears,and each time she felt awful. But she always found the strength to say that she couldn't save the pet.
However, this time she looked at the girl and couldn't say anything. Jenny saw how simply the girl was dressed and thought that her family didn't make a lot of money. Therefore, the pig wasn't just a pet for her, but a real treasure.
“Tell me your phone number, so I can call you after the operation,” Jenny said.
“I’ ll give you my grandmother’ s phone number, because I live with her. My parents were gone.Grandma said that they had gone somewhere far and for a long time. By the way, they gave me the pig before leaving,” the girl said.
Jenny wrote down the number, and when the girl left the clinic, she burst into tears. She realized her parents had died and the girl didn't know the truth yet. How could she tell her that her guinea pig was going to die Jenny looked at the animal helplessly and wondered what she could do. Suddenly she came up with an idea. But before doing it, she put the guinea pig to sleep, and went to the nearest pet store during lunchtime. She wanted to buy exactly the same guinea pig and give it to the girl.
