His calmness makes it easy to forget that hes tracking one of the most dangerous animals in the world. Kasaine is tracking lions especially one lion called Marti, who is the reallife Lion King of Selenkay Conservancy.Tracking lions on foot may sound like a death wish, but Kasaine has been doing it for most of his life. Born into a traditional Maasai family he quickly grew to understand the beauty and danger of wildlife. Living with big wild animals forces him to develop a good sense of where they have been and where they may be going. During his 12kilometer walks to and from school, he learned how to tell the paw prints (爪印)of a lion from those of other animals.Growing up, Kasaine knew that improving his tracking abilities would help him avoid surprise meetings with dangerous animals. For many Maasai, tracking is mainly a matter of selfprotection. But Kasaine is tracking lions to meet them and to protect them. He leads a small group of wideeyed tourists over the red sandy path, searching for the lion that has left upon it his prints.Each year, thousands of tourists crowd Kenyas national parks to try to have a look at the“big five”； elephants, rhinoceros, leopards, buffaloes and lions. The international draw of these animals matters a lot because the nations economy is tied to the protection of its wildlife. If Kenyas wildlife disappears, so does its secondlargest source of income.Wildlife protection efforts in Kenya meant marking off land exclusively(专门地)for animals. But it also meant that the people who had originally lived in the area were forced to leave their land and into smaller surrounding areas, They are also finding it increasingly hard to keep a traditional Maasai lifestyle. But people are glad that it really makes a difference to wildlife protection.5How did Kasaine track lions?ABy working together with tourists. BBy running after them all the time.CBy going to school every day. DBy studying their paw prints.6What can we learn from Paragraph 4?AMaasai people are born animal lovers. BTourism is a big threat to Kenyas wildlife.CKenya benefits a lot from its wildlife protection. DSmall animals are not included in their protection policy.7What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?AKenyas economic development. BPeoples leaving their original homes.CKenyas secondlargest income source. DKenyan peoples traditional Maasai lifestyle.8What is the best title for the text?AWildlife protection in Kenya BMeeting a dangerous animalCWilson Kasaines wise choice DLearning to live with lionsC2019沈阳市郊联体阶段If you believe in thermometers(温度计)，you should believe in global warming. And if you believe in eating fries with your burger, you should worry more about carbon emissions.It wont happen overnight, but as the planets climate changes, the growth cycles of main crops will all be heavily affected .Here are three of the crops that might not beat the heat.The potato actually needs a great deal of beauty rest to develop properly. “They need a cool nighttime temperature in order to start growing the tuber, the part that we eat，” Nelson says.Temperature and altitude are two primary concerns in coffee growth, and farmers are stuck between a rock and a hard place. “We know that coffee grows in a certain temperature range，” Nelson says. “Theyve been moving up the mountains, but at some point you run out of mountains to move up.” Highergrade strains of Arabica coffee in Central American regions are at particular risk due to the need for lower growing temperature, especially since diseases and pests are also becoming more of a factor as temperatures rise.Even if youre looking at the direct effects of temperature alone, rice is in trouble. “As nighttime temperatures go up, the rice is going to have a problem flowering and wont make as many seeds，” Nelson says. In addition to this direct heat consequence, rising sea levels will flood many rice fields and destroy water salinity levels, while droughts will lower production, raise prices, and further shame westerners who are too clumsy with chopsticks to be able to clear their plates once a new grain is adopted.9What is the closest meaning to the underlined word “emissions” in Paragraph 1?AMixture.BPollution.CGoing down. DLetting off.10What does the potatoes development need according to Nelson?AEnough water and salt.BCool temperature at night.CMuch sunshine and fresh air.DSudden rise of the temperature.11The rice is difficult to flower, probably because _.Asea levels go up suddenlyBthe temperature rises at nightCmany seeds cant be producedDboth temperature and altitude rise12What is the best title for the text?AHow Does Global Warming Affect WesternersBHow Does The Cool Temperature Affect RiceCWhat Is The Real Reason For Crops GrowthDThree Crops That Wont Survive Minor Climate ChangesD2019濮阳三模As more and more schools rush to put digital devices in the hands of every student, many parents are becoming increasingly concerned about the quality of their childrens education. The promise of increased student academic achievement through the use of technology hasnt really produced any significant results in the past 20 years.Researchers at the University of California Los Angeles conducted a study in 2019 to determine if the social skills of elementary students were blocked by screen time. Two groups of sixth grade students were compared. One group was sent to an outdoor camp for one week with no screen time, while the control group live life as normal. After one week, the students at camp had made significant improvements over their peers(同龄人). The good news is that when we limit access to screen time and give children the opportunity to interact face to face, they quickly become better at reading nonverbal cues(非言语暗示)and determining the emotional state of others. The bad news is that we have a generation of children that struggle with this basic emotional intelligence skill.Too much screen time has been linked to childhood obesity, sleep disorders, behavior problems, and academic challenges. But is there a difference between schoolwork and entertainment media?When students are using technology for academic work they are more likely to be communicating with peers, working cooperatively, and developing other important skills. However，all these are impossible when students watch entertainment media. They just sit and watch!Parents have right to be concerned about their childrens screen time at school, but they should begin by discussing the use of digital media at home. Some parents are continuously engaged in their own devices, responding to every ring of their phones, receiving and sending messages. How can they expect their children to do better?13What was the schools initial intention of using digital devices?ATo improve students academically.BTo help students develop socially.CTo make school life more entertaining and colorful.DTo make sure students get technological education.14What aspect of children worries the writer a lot?ALacking guidance on proper screen time.BLacking chances to communicate with others.CLacking interest in improving their study.DLacking skills in reading others emotional state.15From the passage, we can learn that _.Aparents shouldnt oppose schools in their educational approachesBsome parents may set a bad example to their children in using digtal mediaCthe screen watching time shouldnt be longer than 2 hours for studentsDits wrong for schools to focus on technological education.七选五2019湛江二模Brand is one of the most important things when starting a blog or any website, that name stays with you, everything you do is to build that name. _16_ Below youll find 4 tried and true methods that youll find just as useful.1.
