Dstudent, Rasmus Erlandsson, studied an extremely threatened species, the Scandinavian arctic fox. The current population numbers are fewer than

12、150 individuals in mainland Europe so many of the young foxes are having difficulty finding a non-related partner. Other threats to the species include competition from the red fox for the rare small rodents (啮齿目动物) they both depend upon for food. Angerbjorn and Erlandsson monitored the arctic fox p

13、opulation in Vasterbotten and Norrbotten, Sweden, to identify the best areas for further conservation actions. This included tagging (贴标签于) the baby foxes, which proved to be a challenge.“When catching arctic foxes it is easy to believe that the smaller ones are the easiest to handle. In some aspect

14、s it is true. Their teeth are smaller and the jaws less powerful. However, just as human children have a hard time keeping still, the really small cubs (幼兽) do too.”“We handle the foxes in a bag while tagging, and the trick is to keep the animal still between your legs while kneeling. And here comes

15、 the tricky part. How do you keep a small, wild fox still? You cannot apply too much force. You really do not want to hurt it. Just as with small children the best tool is patience, but at the same time you want the handling to be as short as possible.”“One particular cub had a technique I had never

16、 experienced before as it continuously tried to turn onto its back, for no obvious reason. I had to reach the ears, so I quickly turned the cub upright. The cub stayed still for a few seconds, and then began to roll onto its back again. The same thing happened over and over again! Finally, I got the

Actually, Kasaine is tracking lions. Parti

20、cularly, he is tracking one lion called Marti.Tracking lions on foot may sound dangerous, but Kasaine has been doing it for most of his life. Born in a traditional Maasai family, he understood the beauty and risk of the wildlife. Living with big game forces him to develop a good sense of where anima

21、ls have been and where they might be going. During his 12-kilometer walks to and from school, he learned how to tell the paw prints of a lion from those of other animals.Growing up, Kasaine knew that improving his tracking abilities would help him avoid other dangerous animals. But maybe Kasaine did

22、nt know that, years later, he would be tracking lions specifically to encounter them and to protect them. Today he leads a small group of wide-eyed tourists over a red sandy path in the reserve, searching for the lion that has left upon it his unmistakable prints.Each year, tens of thousands of tour

23、ists come to Kenyas national parks to try to visit the “big five”: elephants, rhinoceros, leopards, buffaloes, and lions. The attraction of these animals to people all over the world means that the nations economy is tied to the protection of its wildlife. If Kenyas wildlife disappears, so does its

24、second-largest source of income.Considering the rapid urban development in Kenya, this isnt unimaginable. In 2016, a study shows that many of the nations most treasured species have fallen to less than one-third of their population counting from just 40 years ago. The number of lions fell too. In 19

25、98, the nation was home to over 15,000; only about 2,000 remain today. Several experts have predicted they could disappear entirely from the country in the next two decades.Wildlife protection efforts in Kenya must be at the sacrifice of other things. People were forced to leave their land and into

26、smaller surrounding regions. Communities like Kasaines are now finding it increasingly difficult to maintain a traditional Maasai lifestyle. But they are glad that their sacrifice really makes a difference.1、What did Kasaine learn on his way to school and back home?AThe beauty and risk of the wildli

27、fe.BThe method of telling different plants.CThe skills of telling different paw prints.DThe lifestyle of a traditional Maasai family.2、What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?AThe lion.BThe path.CThe reserve.DThe group.3、Why is Kenya making efforts to protect wildlife?ATo improve

28、the nations economy.BTo offer more jobs to the local people.CTo show the importance of the “big five”.DTo set a good example to other countries.4、What do we know from the fifth paragraph?AThe lions in Kenya are in danger of dying out.BThe number of species declined seriously in 2016.CThe nations eco

29、nomy is experiencing a very hard period.DSpecies in Kenya decreased every year in the recent ten years.5、How does Kasaine feel about his sacrifice?AUnpleasant.BHopeful.CDoubtful.DWorthwhile.23（8分） Positive thinking is a significant element of happiness. In order to become a positive thinker, determi

30、nation and consistency are important. The first thing to know about positive thinking is that everyone can do it. With certain cognitive (认知的) and behavioral changes, we can all become positive thinkers. Another important factor is that being a positive thinker does not mean you become numb to anyth

31、ing that is not working properly in your life or is negative - it just means that you approach life and face challenges with a healthier outlook.Instead of selectively attending to negative events, focus on the positive ones. Then pay attention to the delayed consequences of your behavior rather tha

32、n the immediate ones. For example, if a job is not going like you want, focus on the fact that you have a job and how you can take your time to make the situation better.Challenge any internal attributions and see if you compare your behavior to standards that are excessively rigid and perfectionist

33、ic. If so, change these and be reasonable with your comparisons. For example, if you constantly compare your weaknesses with other peoples strengths, then switch this and compare yourself with those who are doing poorer than you as well. Overall, people who focus more on their strengths than their w

34、eaknesses but at the same time are aware of their weaknesses have a healthier self-evaluation result.When faced with too much fear about a situation, imagine the worst case and visualize a solution for it, then let go of fear. This way, you will be prepared for anything and your fear will not block

35、you from being open and creative to different solutions. For example, if you are constantly worried about losing your job up to a point where it is creating a lot of anxiety and fear and is effecting your performance and your happiness negatively, then think of losing your job, visualize how you wil

36、l handle it, find solutions in your mind and then let go of the thought and the fear attached to it.So positive thinkers are better problem solvers and have better interactions. In addition to that, people who are positive thinkers are happier and more satisfied with their life.1、Why is positive thi

38、lenges more healthily.2、What does the text suggest about the job you dont like?AQuitting it and finding a better one.BKeeping and trying to make it better.CBeing negative and numb to it.DChallenging yourself with a new outlook.3、What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 4?ABe prepared for
