Have you ever been friendly with some animals?If you stay in Canada, you can find dogs，cats，horses，etc. in almost every family. These are their pets. People love these pets and have them as their good friends. Before they keep them in their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them injections (注射) so that they wont carry disease. They have special animal food stores, though they can get animal food in almost every kind of store. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit peoples houses, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find that almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are weled to e and have a good meal. They are free to e and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animal in Canada. They have a law against killing wild animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished. If an animal happened to get run over by a car, people would be very sad about it.People in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them might be: Their family ties are not as close as ours. When children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own life. Then the old will feel lonely. But pets can solve this problem. They can be good friends and never leave them alone.As the elderly population increases in China, I think more and more people are also willing to make friends with their animals.21. This passage shows that Canadians _ .A. hate animals B. often kill animalsC. love animals D. dont keep their pets inside their houses22. The word “bird feeder” in the second paragraph probably means_ .A. a person who gives food to birds B. something that catches birdsC. a bowl that has food for birds D. an animal that eats birds23. The passage mainly talks about _ .A. life of the old in Canada B. how to take good care of petsC. how to keep disease from pets D. Canadians have pets as their friendsBWhat would it take to get you to put down your phone during a meal? Sarahs Corner Cafe in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, is offering a deal for people who want to enjoy a meal, and each other, unplugged（拔下插头）. Theyve set up so-called “family recharging stations” at tables where you drop your phone into a basket. “They let the server know and the server will bring over a basket with old fashioned Hangman and Tic Tac Toe and pencils because those games are interactive instead of coloring, which is solitary (孤单的),” owner Barry Lynch told ABC News. Once a family joins in the challenge, staff bring games to the table to encourage the family to interact and municate with one another. If families make it through the meal without looking at their phones, theyre rewarded 10 percent off their bill. “A lot of people are starting to do it and its taken on a life of its own,” said Lynch. The idea for the “family recharging time” came to Lynch after observing many of his customers. “Theres one particular family I knew used to e in on Sunday for breakfast after church,” he recalled. “Every time I went over, one or two of the kids and sometimes the parents would be on the phone. I also knew the dad would go to New York for work every day, which takes a lot of time. I asked him about that and he said, Yeah, I still do it. Its so nice to be together and these breakfasts are rare. And when he said that, I thought, Something is going on here. I need to do something.” Lynch is thrilled by the response his phone-free meals have gotten and hopes they continue to enrich his customers family time. “I just thought it was such a shame not to have more time together just to talk,” he said.24. How can a family get a 10% discount at Sarahs Corner Cafe? A. They have phone-free meals. B. They take no phones for meals. C. They keep polite during the meals. D. They remain quiet during the meals.25. Why do servers bring over the games to the challengers? A. To cater for (迎合) them. B. To test their courage. C. To make them municate. D. To develop their game skills.26. What did Barry show by telling the familys story? A. Why he had pity on the family. B. How the family spent their weekend. C. Why the family members ignored each other. D. How he had the idea for family recharging time.27. Whats the reaction of the customers about their phone-free meals?A. Passive. B. Positive. C. casual. D. Doubtful.CWhen temperatures are high, walking on hot roadways, parking lots, and other paved surfaces can really burn your feet. All of that heat es from the energy of the sun. But what if we could turn that energy into electricity? It may sound like a crazy science dream, but an electrical engineer and his wife may have found a way to do just that. Scott Brusaw has developed a six-sided glass panel（面板）that contains solar cells, which can change sunlight into electricity. The panels fit together and can form a flat surface on the ground. Brusaw and his wife, Julie, founded a pany called Solar Roadways to further develop the idea and produce these new solar panels. They plan to use their invention to replace the pavement on U.S. roads. According to the Brusaws, if we replaced all of the nations asphalt（沥青）with these solar panels, they would produce more than three times the amount of electricity currently used by the United States in a year. In return, electricity from solar panels doesnt produce harmful pollution, so the panels could be a smart choice for the environment.The U.S. government sees some promise in the Solar Roadways project. A number of labs around the country have tested the panels to see if they can withstand（经受）the heavy traffic and rough weather. The lab results show that not only do the panels meet the requirements, but they can actually handle more weight than they need to.Now, money must be raised to start building the panel pavement system. The Brusaws have raised more than $1 million from ordinary people who learned about their project. However, some experts predict the Brusaws plan could finally cost more than $1 trillion.Could Solar Roadways meet the worlds increasing need for electricity? A lot of obstacles（阻碍）stand in the way of re-creating the highway system out of solar panels. 28. The glass panel the Brusaws has developed_. A. is too heavy to carry B. has a high temperature C. is powered by an engine D. is environmentally-friendly29. Whats the U.S. governments attitude towards the Brusaws plan now? A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Interested. D. Indifferent.30. What does the underlined part “their project” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. Replacing asphalt roads with solar panels. B. Designing more money-saving solar panels. C. Testing the solar panels the Brusaws invented. D. Reducing the ever-growing need for electricity.31. What can we learn from the passage? A. Enough funds have been raised for the project. B. The panels cant hold the weight of the heavy traffic. C. It is no easy task to rebuild a panel pavement system. D. The pavement on U.S. roads has been replaced by solar panels.DBack in middle school, I went to live with my mother for two years on her farm. Whenever people hear that I lived on a farm, they immediately have an image of dairy cows, tractors, hay, and overalls. Nothing could be further from the truth. I wasnt on the kind of farm everyone imagines. I didnt feed cows or pigs; I didnt grow corn or wheat. I helped my mother raise llamas（羊驼）. It is strange that such non-traditional livestock should be raised on a long-established farm such as ours, which has been in the family for generations. Our family did indeed raise traditional livestock for many decades. Then, fifty years ago, my great-grandfather decided to buy a llama. He must have learned that wool from llamas could help him earn more money than wool from sheep. The llama wool business turned out to be so successful, in fact, that my great-grandfather changed the family business to a pletely-developed llama farm. Before I began to live on the farm, I had many illusions（错误的观念）about rural life. What could possibly be easier than feeding and grooming（照看）some animals? After I had settled into my new home, however, I realized that farm work was much more involved than I had expected. Collecting manure（肥料）, for example, doesnt seem so bad when someone else does it on TV, but I had to get up before dawn every day to finish that chore before catching the bus to school. I dont mean to say that my life on the farm was a bad experience. I learned a lot about myself: for example, Im not a morning person. I also learned about llamas habits, such as spitting（吐唾沫）when they are unhappy. Most importantly, my mother and I got to spend a lot of time together during those years. Although I doubt whether Ill have a career in farming, I look forward to returning to the family farm for short visits.32. Why did the authors great-grandfather want to raise llamas? A. To make more money. B. To learn about their habits. C. To please his grandchildren. D. To save their lives.33. What did the author imagine rural life would be like? A. It would be boring and tiring. B. It would involve lots of laborers. C. It would be very easy and relaxing. D. It would be the same as what was shown on TV.34. How did the author feel about his life on his mothers farm? A. He was bored. B. He was grateful. C. He was excited. D. He was disappointed.35. What would be the best title for the text? A. Returning to a family B. Enjoying a big family C. Living on a farm D.
