The San Diego Zoo has been a lovely home for giant pandas since two of the black-and-white bears came to visit in 1987. This week there was snow in San Diego—well, at least for a lucky group of giant pandas.
Over 15 tons of snow was blown into the San Diego Zoo's panda area on Tuesday morning to give the endangered bears a chance to play. They would experience the snow just like living in their natural habitat.
The snow day was a first for Xiao Liwu whose name means "Little Gift." He was the sixth baby panda born to Bai Yun. Xiao Liwu was jumping on Mom, playing with her and getting used to being thrown in the snow by mama bear. Jennifer Becerra, San Diego Zoo keeper said, "He was really enjoying the snow and running around. I've never seen him so happy."
All the San Diego Zoo’s giant pandas are from China, as part of a long-term captive breeding(人工養(yǎng)殖) program. Four of Xiao Liwu's brothers have already been moved from California to China.
Today there are 44 giant pandas living in zoos outside of China, where the bears' only natural home is. As just 1,600 pandas are thought to be left in the wild, researchers insist that captive breeding is an important way to study and protect the endangered pandas. Not only because of the habitat loss from human activities and low reproductive rates(繁殖率), giant pandas' survival is also affected by climate change. A study showed that global warming could kill much of the bears' main food, bamboo, over the next century.
小題1:Why was the snow blown into the San Diego Zoo's panda area?
A．To stop the bamboos from dying.
B．To give the pandas a chance to play.
C．To help the pandas live in their natural habitat.
D．To make Xiao Liwu happy.
小題2:What’s the relationship between Bai Yun and Xiao Liwu?
A．Wife and husband.
B．Father and daughter.
C．Sister and brother.
D．Mother and son.
小題3:What is NOT the factor that influences the giant pandas' number?
A．The loss of habitat.
B．Low reproductive rates.
C．Human research.
D．Climate change.
小題4:Which of the following is the best title of this passage?
A．Giant pandas in San Diego Zoo
B．Giant pandas in danger
C．Xiao Liwu’s happy time
D．How to protect giant pandas
小題5:Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Captive breeding is the most useful way to protect giant pandas.
B．More than 44 giant pandas live in zoos outside of China now.
C．China is the only natural home of giant pandas.
D．Xiao Liwu was afraid of being thrown in the snow by mama.

Mrs. Beet, a 38-year-old woman, lived in a house near a river. Every day she drives very fast to work.
On her way back from work yesterday afternoon, she was driving faster than usual because she was worried about her little son. He was alone at home.

The word “day” has two meanings. When we talk about the number of days in a year, we are using “day” to mean 24 hours. But when we talk about day and night, we are using “day” to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a ball, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning(旋轉) of the earth. At the equator(赤道) day and night are sometimes the same length. They are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 o’clock in the morning and sets at 6 o’clock in the evening. For six months the North Pole is tilted(傾斜) toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球) gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. South of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights. North of the equator nights are longer than days. Winter is the season of long nights. Summer is the season of long days.
小題1:How many meanings does the word “day” have?
