Ⅰ.阅读理解
　　Global light pollution has increased by at least 49% over 25 years， new research shows.This data （数据） only includes light which can be seen through satellites， and scientists think the true increase may be significantly higher — up to 270% globally， and 400% in some areas.
　　This study shows not only how bad light pollution has become as a problem of the whole world， but also that it is continuing to get worse， probably at a faster and faster rate.
　　The study highlights the “hidden impact （影响）” of the LED technology.LEDs send out more blue light than previous lamp technology， but satellite sensors can’t discover this blue light and so underestimate （低估） the level of emissions （排放物）.The authors say the actual increase in the power sent out by outdoor lighting， and thus of light pollution， may be as high as 270%.“To take the UK as an example， if you pay no attention to the effect of the change to LEDs， you get the false impression that light pollution has recently weakened，” said researcher Dr Sanchez de Miguel.“However， it has really increased， very remarkably.”
　　Contrary to popular belief， the LED streetlights， while potentially providing some energy savings， has increased light pollution and also the impacts on flying insects.
　　Ruskin Hartley， Executive Director of the International Dark-Sky Association， said， “Over the past 25 years， the use of LED lighting has been accompanied by rapid increases in light pollution all over the world.”
　　If no action is taken to change this trend （趋势）， the impact on the natural environment will speed up， further worsening the biodiversity （生物多样性） crisis and wasting energy.Many studies have now shown that light pollution， from streetlights and other sources， can have major impacts on the natural environment.Such pollution is likely to have played a role in the huge decrease in insect populations.
1.How does the author illustrate that light pollution becomes worse？
A.By referring to certain theories. B.By providing comparative data.
C.By listing a lot of opinions. D.By giving some examples.
2.Why was light pollution in the UK underestimated？
A.Emission levels of LEDs are low.
B.Satellite sensors are blind to LEDs.
C.Outdoor lighting is limited in the UK.
D.LEDs are less and less used in the UK.
3.What’s the general belief of LED streetlights？
A.They are good for insects. B.They save lots of energy.
C.They cause light pollution. D.They are environment-friendly.
4.What does the last paragraph focus on？
A.The harm of light pollution. B.The causes of biological crises.
C.The trend of insect populations. D.The importance of the natural environment.

　　“Mom！” I screamed as I looked through the window， “Why is my Ink Spot sitting in Mrs Cleary’s window？”
　　Mom pushed past me to confirm it.Sure enough， across the street was Ink Spot cleaning himself in the window of Mrs Cleary’s sitting room.I couldn’t believe my eyes.He was my cat， not Mrs Cleary’s.She had already adopted twelve cats.Why must she keep my cat？I could feel anger boiling up inside me.Meanwhile， Ink Spot’s leaving without any signs upset me.A sense of being left out hit me hard.
　　Ink Spot was special for me.After my baby sister’s birth， “my” parents’ time was taken by her.It seemed no one in the family cared about or even noticed me.Worse still， I was packed off to a kindergarten.I hated being left out from the bottom of my heart.
　　It was when Mom noticed me weeping in a corner one night that things began to change.After that， Ink Spot came into my life.Every night， he curled （卷曲） up beside me in bed and he was there for me after school when I raced home just to be with him.
　　I fell in love with Ink Spot the first time I saw its tiny black and white kitten， for which I called him Ink Spot.Mom and Daddy beamed with pleasure as my eyes danced with joy again.It was the first time that I had smiled since my little baby sister came into the family.As for me， he was more than a cat.Actually， he was my life.
　　But today when I came home， Ink Spot was in Mrs Cleary’s window.I wanted him back.But Mom insisted that if Ink Spot stayed at Mrs Cleary’s， that meant it was where he wanted to be.“No！Mom， Ink Spot is my cat”， I protested wildly but I had to admit the truth of Mom’s words.Standing on the sidewalk， I was at a loss as to what to do.Staring at Ink Spot for a while， I couldn’t stand the anger any longer.

参考范文：
　　I walked towards Mrs Cleary’s house hurriedly and knocked at the door angrily.The moment she opened the door， I asked Mrs Cleary with watery eyes， “Why is my cat in your window？” Confused， Mrs Cleary responded， “I didn’t know he was yours.I just thought he was another abandoned cat， so I took him in just like I took in all the rest.If what I did has hurt you， I am awfully sorry.” Then she led me directly to the sitting room， where cats were playing happily.
　　Upon seeing me， Ink Spot jumped off the window， running towards me in a flash.A flood of excitement passed through my body.I immediately picked him up and held him close as he rubbed beneath my chin purring loudly.Seeing my cat well taken care of， I realized I had misunderstood my caring neighbor.Now my anger gave way to gratitude.I thanked her again and again before I took Ink Spot to my home， where I thought he should belong.The lost and found companion made me feel I was someone again.

　　阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Scientists say a huge percentage of bird species are in danger because their habitats， or homelands，are disappearing.Traditional migration paths take birds through countries that are not protecting locations to stop，rest and feed.The scientists studied the migration， or fight， paths， of almost 1，500 species.They decided that 91 percent of them passed through dangerous areas.
The major danger for migratory birds is development.Building and paving have covered over nature where birds stop and feed as they move from one part of the world to another.For example， a bird called the bar-tailed godwit migrates from its breeding grounds in the Arctic.It flies all the way to the southern hemisphere in Australia and New Zealand.Along the way，the small birds stop at Yellow Sea mudflats in China， North Korea and South Korea.
One of the scientists working on the study says “many of these critical sites have been lost to land reclamation （开垦） owing to urban， industrial and agricultural expansion.” The problem， according to investigators，is that many of these small birds die along their migration because they don’t have a safe place to eat and rest.There is no place to restore their energy for the next leg of their journey.“They simply perish （死亡） along the way，” says one of the scientists.Countries in North Africa， Central Asia and those along the coasts of East Asia are having the most difficult time conserving land.The scientists say these countries do not have enough areas that are safe for birds.
The researchers say countries need to work together and provide safe stopover areas for birds that pass through their boundaries.For example， one country might have preserved safe zones for migrating birds.But a neighbor country might not.A bird might perish.One scientist tells the Los Angeles Times that while some habitats are changing， more work can be done to make urban areas safe for birds.He says small changes — like planting more native plants or keeping cats out of areas birds would be likely to use — could make a big difference.

　　Global light pollution has increased by at least 49% over 25 years，
new research shows.This data （数据） only includes light which can be
seen through satellites， and scientists think the true increase may be
significantly higher — up to 270% globally， and 400% in some areas.
　　This study shows not only how bad light pollution has become as a
problem of the whole world， but also that it is continuing to get worse，
probably at a faster and faster rate.
　　The study highlights the “hidden impact （影响）” of the LED
technology.LEDs send out more blue light than previous lamp
technology， but satellite sensors can’t discover this blue light and so
underestimate （低估） the level of emissions （排放物）.The authors
say the actual increase in the power sent out by outdoor lighting， and thus
of light pollution， may be as high as 270%.“To take the UK as an
example， if you pay no attention to the effect of the change to LEDs，
you get the false impression that light pollution has recently weakened，”
said researcher Dr Sanchez de Miguel.“However， it has really
increased， very remarkably.”
　　Contrary to popular belief， the LED streetlights， while potentially
providing some energy savings， has increased light pollution and also the
impacts on flying insects.
　　Ruskin Hartley， Executive Director of the International Dark-Sky
Association， said， “Over the past 25 years， the use of LED lighting
has been accompanied by rapid increases in light pollution all over the
world.”
　　If no action is taken to change this trend （趋势）， the impact on
the natural environment will speed up， further worsening the biodiversity
（生物多样性） crisis and wasting energy.Many studies have now shown
that light pollution， from streetlights and other sources， can have major
impacts on the natural environment.Such pollution is likely to have played
a role in the huge decrease in insect populations.

成一篇完整的短文。
　　“Mom！” I screamed as I looked through the window， “Why is
my Ink Spot sitting in Mrs Cleary’s window？”
　　Mom pushed past me to confirm it.Sure enough， across the street
was Ink Spot cleaning himself in the window of Mrs Cleary’s sitting
room.I couldn’t believe my eyes.He was my cat， not Mrs
Cleary’s.She had already adopted twelve cats.Why must she keep my
cat？I could feel anger boiling up inside me.Meanwhile， Ink Spot’s
leaving without any signs upset me.A sense of being left out hit me hard.
　　Ink Spot was special for me.After my baby sister’s birth， “my”
parents’ time was taken by her.It seemed no one in the family cared
about or even noticed me.Worse still， I was packed off to a
kindergarten.I hated being left out from the bottom of my heart.
　　It was when Mom noticed me weeping in a corner one night that
things began to change.After that， Ink Spot came into my life.Every
night， he curled （卷曲） up beside me in bed and he was there for me
after school when I raced home just to be with him.
　　I fell in love with Ink Spot the first time I saw its tiny black and white
kitten， for which I called him Ink Spot.Mom and Daddy beamed with
pleasure as my eyes danced with joy again.It was the first time that I had
smiled since my little baby sister came into the family.As for me， he was
more than a cat.Actually， he was my life.
　　But today when I came home， Ink Spot was in Mrs Cleary’s
window.I wanted him back.But Mom insisted that if Ink Spot stayed at
Mrs Cleary’s， that meant it was where he wanted to be.“No！Mom，
Ink Spot is my cat”， I protested wildly but I had to admit the truth of
Mom’s words.Standing on the sidewalk， I was at a loss as to what to
do.Staring at Ink Spot for a while， I couldn’t stand the anger any
longer.

参考范文：
　　I walked towards Mrs Cleary’s house hurriedly and knocked at the
door angrily.The moment she opened the door， I asked Mrs Cleary with
watery eyes， “Why is my cat in your window？” Confused， Mrs
Cleary responded， “I didn’t know he was yours.I just thought he was
another abandoned cat， so I took him in just like I took in all the rest.If
what I did has hurt you， I am awfully sorry.” Then she led me directly
to the sitting room， where cats were playing happily.
　　Upon seeing me， Ink Spot jumped off the window， running
towards me in a flash.A flood of excitement passed through my body.I
immediately picked him up and held him close as he rubbed beneath my
chin purring loudly.Seeing my cat well taken care of， I realized I had
misunderstood my caring neighbor.Now my anger gave way to gratitude.I
thanked her again and again before I took Ink Spot to my home， where I
thought he should belong.The lost and found companion made me feel I
was someone again.
