actions. although protecting wildlife may seem too hard at times, even small actions in your own neighbourhood can help protect many different animals. here are some tips on how to protect wildlife through small actions.1.create wildlife friendly areas in your backyard.when trying to make your garden more beautiful , you can choose plants that can provide food and shelter to native wildlife . this will also help cut down on pollution . add bird or bat houses to your yard or garden to attract and shelter these species.2. avoid harming the natural ecosystem ( 生态系统 ) in your area.some plants from other places can kill or harm native plants that provide food and shelter for wildlife.3. _.by using less water and fewer fuels, you will be helping to protect the wildlife around you . take buses or the subway when you can, turn off electric devices when youre not using them , take shorter shower, and keep your room temperature at or below 68 degrees during the winter.4. buy products that are wildlife friendlydont buy products that are made from endangered animals. keep in mind that some endangered animals are killed by traps , catches or hunters who are after other wildlife within the same habitat.5. donate money or time to organizations that protect wildlife and their habitats.you can give money to organization or groups that protect wildlife species in your neighbourhood.21we infer that the purpose of this passage is to _.a. tell us why protecting wildlife is extremely important nowb. suggest that we protect wildlife through actionsc. explain why protecting wildlife is not as hard as people think.d. give us some tips on how to protect wildlife through small actions22which of the following threats to wildlife is not mentioned in the passage ?a. animal diseasesb. loss of habitatc. pollutiond. hunters23whats the best title for the third point ?a. have a greener lifestyle.b. use less water and fewer fuels.c. take a bus when you go out d. try a new kind of life.24the writer suggests that we _.a. not buy products made from animalsb. share cars with others when we go outc. grow as many kinds of plants in our gardens as possibled. provide shelters for birds and bats in our gardens or yardsnever go into a supermarket hungry! this is a good piece of advice. if you go shopping for food before lunchtime, youll probably buy more than you plan to. unfortunately, however, just this advice isnt enough for consumers these days. modern shoppers need an education in how and how not to buy things at the store. first, you check the weekly newspaper ads. find out the items that are on sale and decide if you really need these things. in other words, dont buy anything just because its cheaper than usual! “new and improved!” or “all natural” on the front of a package influence you. instead, read the list of contents on the back. third, compare prices, that is, you should examine the prices of both different brands and different sizes of the same brand.another suggestion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands. ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages. these products are cheaper because producers dont spend much money on packing or advertising. the quality, however, is usually as good as the quality of well-known name brands. in the same way, in buying clothes, you can often find high quality and low prices in brands that are not famous. shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money. although these stores arent very attractive, and they usually do not have individual dressing rooms, not only are the prices low, but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in high-priced department stores.wise consumers read magazine ads and watch tv commercials, but they do this with one advantage: knowledge of the psychology behind the ads. in other words, well informed consumers watch for information and check for misinformation. they ask themselves questions: is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page? is there any real information in the commercial(商业广告), or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image? with the answers to these questions, consumers can make a wise choice.25all the following statements are true about the phrase “ordinary items” in paragraph 2 except _.a. ordinary products are usually cheaper than famous brands.b. producers spend less money on packaging of ordinary items .c. the quality of ordinary items is usually as good as that of famous brands.d. ordinary items never say “new and improved” or “all natural”.26what does the writer think about ads?a. they are believable. b. they are attractive.c. they are helpful. d. they are harmful.27one of the authors suggestions to consumers is _.a. to buy any ordinary items instead of famous brands .b. to make use of advertisements carefully for shopping.c. to buy high quality items such as famous brands after lunch .d. not to buy items with words like “new and improved” or “all natural”.28the author implies that _.a. advertisements sometimes dont tell the truth to the consumers.b. discount clothing stores are only good places to go to for shopping.c. going into the supermarket hungry, you may buy less than you plan to.d. the quality of ordinary items is usually high and the prices are relatively low.its not easy being a teenager nor is it easy being the parent of a teenageryou can make your child feel angry, hurt or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourselfit is important to

calls，but teaches your teenager moderation(节制).or if you are open to the idea，allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job29 the main purpose of the

sports was born.” their dream was to help athletes with permanent physical disabilities compete in action sports. adaptive action sports holds camps, clinics, and events to create programs and opportunities for these individuals. since 2000, the usasa has provided opportunities for adaptive athletes to compete in snowboarding competitions. in 2007, the usasa competition had 17 adaptive athletes compete, the largest number of adaptive athletes in adaptive athlete competition history. although many competitors were still injured, they recovered quickly and showed how hard they are
