【題目】閱讀理解
Since Abbi Hickman was just a little girl, she has been surrounded by animals. Chickens, cats, dogs, rabbits, and sometimes goats are just some of the animals she cares for. At the age of 9, Abbi went to the Tracy Animal Shelter，in her hometown of Tracy，California，to adopt Sheldon，her favorite cat. There，she saw the poor conditions that the animals were kept in. Abbi knew that it was her duty to take action.
Pins for Pets is Abbi's solution. For the last three years, she has organized a bowling tournament to raise funds for the Tracy Animal Shelter. She has raised more than $30,000, resulting in a better home for the animals. “Now the shelter is nicer and cleaner and animals have more space. It is far better, a hundred percent better,” Abbi says.
To praise Abbi for her outstanding efforts, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) named her the 2015 ASPCA Tommy P. Monahan Kid of the Year. This award is given to kids who make a substantial (大量的) effort to help animals. Abbi responded to the news of her win with shock. “I was pretty excited. I' m really honored to receive it,” she says.
Sacrificing time and effort to assist animals can sometimes be difficult, but Abbi hopes to do more. “I want to spread my free services to more shelters. I really just hope people are kinder to animals and respect them more,” says Abbi, sharing her goals for her organization.
At the age of 12, Abbi has already accomplished so much. The advice she has for kids like her, who want to accomplish their goals, is, “Nothing is impossible. You can do anything you put your mind to. Even if it is something small, it can make a huge difference.” Abbi's work has improved the lives of animals, and she plans to keep coming up with new ways to help them.
（1）When she was very little, Abbi went to the Tracy Animal Shelter and .
A.adopted a dog called Sheldon she liked best
B.raised kids' awareness of protecting animals
C.found the poor conditions the animals lived in
D.learned some knowledge about some animals
（2）How has Abbi raised money during the last three years?
A.By begging from door to door.
B.By organizing a bowling match.
C.By helping others look after some animals.
D.By turning to the Tracy Animal Shelter for help.
（3）Which of the following can best describe Abbi?
A.Cautious and loyal.
B.Determined and imaginative.
C.Changeable but optimistic.
D.Responsible and Caring.
（4）What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A.Abbi's organization is non-profit.
B.Abbi thinks she has done enough.
C.Helping animals is a piece of cake.
D.People are friendly enough to animals.

【答案】
（1）C
（2）B
（3）D
（4）A
【解析】Abbi小時候起就很喜歡動物，她為小動物做了很多事情，去動物收容所收養(yǎng)動物，成立Pins for Pets，組織保齡球比賽為收容所捐款等等。美國防止虐待動物協(xié)會還為她頒了獎，但是她還想做更多，她想把她的免費服務(wù)擴展到更多的庇護所，希望人們更加愛護動物尊重它們。
（1）C 細節(jié)理解題。第一段講述，Abbi去特雷西動物收容所去收養(yǎng)小貓，發(fā)現(xiàn)那里的動物居住條件很差。她決心要為此做點什么。
（2）B 細節(jié)理解題。由第二段可知，為了給動物收容所捐款，她組織了保齡球賽。
（3）D推理判斷題。從她為小動物做的努力，如領(lǐng)養(yǎng)小貓，為小動物捐款和號召人們善待尊重小動物等可以看得出，她是有責(zé)任心(responsible)和同情心(caring)的
（4）A 推理判斷題。 從最后的兩段話可以看出，為了幫助小動物她付出了大量時間和精力，已經(jīng)很不容易了，但她還想做的更多。她想把她的免費服務(wù)擴展到更多的收容所。她成立的組織的宗旨就是希望人們對待動物更友善些，更尊重些。可見，她的組織是非營利的愛心組織。

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
There are so many things we do in our daily lives that have become a “habit”, How you answer the phone is a habit. The way you sit in the car when you drive is a habit. Have you ever tried to change the way you do something, after you've done it in a certain way for so long? It's easy to do as long as you think about it. The minute your mind drifts to something else, you go right back to the old way of doing things. It's a way of doing things that has become routine or commonplace. To change an existing habit or form a new one can be a tedious(單調(diào)乏味的) task.
Let's pick something fairly easy to start with, like spending 15 minutes in the morning reading the Bible. If you want to turn something into a habit that you do every day, you have to WANT to do it. Make a firm decision to do this on a daily basis.
Imprint(銘刻) it in your mind. Write several notes to yourself and put them in places where you will see them. By the alarm clock, on the bathroom mirror, on the refrigerator door, in your briefcase, and under your car keys are good places to start.
After the newness wears off, then you will have to remind yourself, “Hey, I forgot to. . . ”. Keep using the notes if you have to. Some people say it will take over a month to solidify(變得穩(wěn)固) it and make it something you will do without having to think about it. I tend to agree with the last statement. Two to three weeks will help you to remember, but thirty days or more will make it a part of your everyday routine.
A. What is a “habit” anyway?
B. Is doing things in an old way good?
C. Brushing your teeth is a habit.
D. Forming a bad habit is easy.
E. It takes 16 to 21 times of repeating a task to make it a habit.
F. If you don't, you will find a way to do everything but that.
G. That's something you won't necessarily have to think about before you do it — habit.

【題目】Biros have been observed to sleep while in flight for the first time ever. Because of some flights that can often last several days, weeks, or even longer, some sea birds have long been thought of being able to fall fully asleep while “on the wing”, though it was not proven.

Now researchers say they have evidence which shows birds can sleep in flight. Scientists from Max Planck Institute used a sample of 15 adult female frigatebirds(軍艦鳥) to test the sleep patterns. Each bird had a small electroencephalogram(EEG腦電圖) sensor fitted to record changes in the animals’ brain activity as they flew for up to 10 days and over 3,000 kilometres.

The readings showed that during flight the birds could sleep using one hemisphere of the brain, or both together. It was known that frigatebirds could sleep with one “half” of the brain, which allows them to keep one eye open and “connected” to the awake half.

According to the research, it is sleeping technique used by birds for finding directions. “Frigatebirds sleep mostly while circling in rising air and keep the eye connected to the awake hemisphere facing the direction of flight, suggesting that they watch where they are going,” says the study.

Despite the ability to fall “fully” asleep, the birds were found to do it less in the air compared to one land. They slept “very little and less deeply while in flight. This suggests that though it is possible, falling totally asleep is not very good during flight which will need the bird’s attention.

The researchers said the short sleep could be serving as “power naps” to keep the birds going until they return to land. Further study could help us understand why lack of sleep affects humans so badly.

【1】The phrase “on the wing” in the first paragraph may mean .

A. sleeping B. fighting

C. flying D. thinking

【2】Why did the researchers fit the frigatebirds with EEG sensors?

A. To know animals’ brain activity

B. To get some of the good samples

C. To help the birds fly much longer

D. To use the birds to find directions

【3】How do the sleeping birds find the directions?

A. They keep one eye connected to the awake part

B. They sleep less when they are circling in rising air

C. They pay special attention to the way

D. They have a good sleep before they start flying

【4】What is the best title of the text?

A. A Study on Birds in Flight

B. Birds Can Sleep in Flight

C. Flying Bird’s Brain Activity

D. Sleep With Half of the Brain
