Great white sharks! Just hearing that name makes many people’s hair stand on end. In reality, these big fish have more to fear from us than we do from them. For many years, people killed countless great white sharks in the waters around the United States.
But thanks to conservation (保護(hù)) efforts, great whites are making a comeback in the U.S. Two recent studies show that the population of these sharks is rising along the east and west coast.
Why is the growing population of a killer fish something to celebrate? “When you fish too many of them, you start to lose balance in the environment,” says shark researcher Tobey Curtis. As the biggest killer, sharks help keep the populations of fish, seals, and other creatures they eat from growing too large.
In spite of their importance, great white sharks had long been hunted for their meat and their fins (鰭). Then, in 1997, the U.S. government passed a law that didn’t allow the hunting of great whites. Afterwards, the numbers of these sharks in the U.S. waters started to increase.
The law wasn’t the only thing that has helped great whites. Conservationists have also played a part in the sharks’ comeback. The research group OCEARCH is using a method called tagging (加標(biāo)簽) to help change people’s attitudes about great white. They let the public follow each shark as it travels the world’s oceans. OCEARCH also gives each tagged shark a name to help people form a closer connection with the big fish.
The group’s most well-known shark is named Katharine. She was tagged last year near Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Since then, thousands of people have tracked Katharine’s movements on Twitter and the OCEARCH website.
This helps people see sharks in a new way. Chris Fischer, the founder of OCEARCH believes learning to appreciate great whites will encourage people to do more to protect them.
1.The underlined part “makes many people’s hair stand on end” in Paragraph 1 can best be replaced by______.
A. worries many people B. bores many people
C. frightens many people D. interests many people
2.The law passed in 1997 ______.
A. seemed very helpful
B. let scientists down
C. needed to be changed
D. made people like great whites
3.Katharine’s example is used to show that ______.
A. great whites are in fact lovely animals
B. the OCEARCH website has a lot of visitors
C. the number of great whites is growing quickly
D. OCEARCH help people get closer to great whites
4.The main purpose of the passage is to ______.
A. introduce an experiment result
B. make an advertisement for OCEARCH
C. remind us that big killers are dying out
D. inform us that great whites are making a comeback

I have happy memories of trips to Europe, but my trip to Romania (羅馬尼亞) was unique. When I was there as recalled, it was like being in a “James Bond” movie. My husband was born there, but his family sent him to study in Italy. Before he left, his mother told him, “As long as I write in pencil, don’t come back. When I write to you in pen, it’s safe to return.” But she never wrote in pen.
My husband lived a poor life in Italy. He applied to go to America, but there was a limit in number and he was rejected. He was accepted by Canada, though, and from Calgary he jumped onto a train to San Francisco. There he stayed —illegally. He became a US citizen when we got married. By then he was a charming European with a Romanian accent and the manners of a prince.
With seven years’ experience in America, a US passport, and two children later, he felt it was safe to visit Romania. He hadn’t seen his mother, two sisters, and two brothers since he was sixteen. We flew to Munich, Germany; picked up the German-made car we had purchased in the States; and drove to Romania via Austria and Hungary. When we reached Bucharest, the capital city of Romania, his family was waiting outside his sister’s house to greet us. After a long time of hugging, kissing, and crying, his family also hugged me, the American wife with two young children. They had great interest in me. Few Americans visited Romania at that time, and most Romanians had little chance to travel. I had brought an English-Romanian dictionary with me and managed to communicate, using only nouns, with no verbs. My Romanian improved, and the family’s stock of English words increased, but mostly I spoke in broken, New York-accented Romanian. The sisters loved their gifts of skirts and purses, the brothers loved the radios, and the children loved the candy. We made side trips to the Black Sea and enjoyed sightseeing in beautiful mountains. Dining at outdoor cafes to the music of violins was fantastic with fancy flavor, but nothing was as special as family dinners.
Romania didn’t have many dry cleaners. Most homes had old-fashioned washing machines but no dryers, and it was a hot summer. My husband’s relatives didn’t want to risk dirtying their clothes. Their solution was as simple as it was shocking: the women only wore their bras(胸罩) and slips (襯裙) at dinner table. The men were eating without shirts. They all had jobs, so time was precious. Having dinner without proper clothes was a small inconvenience compared with the effort of washing clothes —at least in my husband’s home, perhaps all across Romania. I, of course, having just met them, ate fully clothed. I washed my clothes by hand and hung them outdoors to dry.
On the last night of our three-week stay, we had a large family dinner. I was tired of washing my clothes. So I pulled my dress over my head and placed it on the chair behind me. All men and women applauded for my action. Even with my poor Romanian, I understood that they were saying, “She’s part of our family now.”
My children were 4 and 5 at the time, but they still have memories of that trip. They know how to say, “Good morning.” and “There are apricots (杏子) on the tree.” I can still say, “Do you speak Romanian?” and “I swim in the Black Sea.” But most of all, I remember sitting at a long dining-room table in my bra, enjoying meatballs with fresh garlic (大蒜).
1.From Para.1, we learn that ________.
A. a trip to Europe would be dangerous
B. the mother didn’t want to see her son
C. Romania might be unsafe at that time
D. the mother didn’t like to write in pen
2.The writer’s husband became an American citizen through ________.
A. experiences B. application
C. illegal stay D. marriage
3.What made the writer feel special about the family dinner in Romania?
A. The way people dressed .
B. The way people spoke.
C. The fantastic violin music.
D. The fancy food flavor.
4.The writer was completely accepted by her husband’s family when ________.
A. she offered gifts to the whole family
B. she spoke her husband’s language
C. she washed all the clothes by hand
D. she had dinner in bra like other ladies
5.The writer shared her story to say ________.
A. “East or west, home is the best”
B. “When in Rome do as the Romans do”
C. “Marry a dog and follow the dog forever”
D. “The course of true love never runs smooth”

When Frida Kahlo’s paintings were on show in London, a poet described her paintings as “ a ribbon(絲帶)around a bomb”. Such comments seem to suggest Kahlo had a big influence on the art world of her time. Sadly, she is actually a much bigger name today than she was during her time.
Born in 1907 in a village near Mexico City , Kahlo suffered from polio(小兒麻痹癥) at the age of seven. Her spine(脊柱) became bent as she grew older. Then, in 1925, her back was broken in several places in a school-bus accident. Throughout the rest of her life, the artist had many operations, but nothing was able to cure the terrible pain in her back. However, the accident had an unexpected side effect. While lying in her bed recovering, Kahlo taught herself to paint.
In 1929, she got married to Diego Rivera, another famous Mexican artist. Rivera’s strong influence on Kahlo’s style can be seen in her early works, but her later works from the 1940s, known today as her best works, show less influence from her husband.
Unfortunately, her works did not attract much attention in the 1930s and1940s, even in her home country. Her first one-woman show in Mexico was not held until 1953. For more than a decade after her death in 1954, Kahlo’s works remained largely unnoticed by the world, but in the 1970s her works began to gain international fame at last.
1.What does the phrase “a much bigger name” in Paragraph 1 most nearly mean?
A. a far better artist
B. a much more famous person
C. a much stronger person
D. a far more gifted artist
2.The terrible pain Kahlo suffered was caused by .
A. back injuries B. her bent spine
C. polio D. the operations she had
3.Kahlo’s style had become increasingly independent since the .
A.1930s B. 1970s C. 1950s D. 1940s
4.What is the author’s attitude toward Kahlo?
A. Devotion. B. Encouragement.
C. Worry. D. Sympathy.
