They are endangered members of the black bear family. One in ten black bears is actually born with a spirit bear. Clover, a three-year-old bear spirit bear, lives at the B.C. Wildlife Park near Kamloops, British. He lost his parents two years ago and was raised at a wildlife center. When he was set free to the wild, he went on human camps looking for food. Wildlife experts tried to get him used to living on his own, but he continued to look for places where there were people. Finally the experts decided that he could not live in the wild. Since then, a total of 750,000 dollars has been collected to create a habitat for Clover. The habitat covers about three acres(英亩) of land and includes natural forest, two ponds connected by a small river and something else. It will add a platform(站台) and a walkway later this year so that people can see Clover and his habitat more closely. There will also be a center where people can learn more about spirit bears. Besides, a black bear will be moved into the habitat so Clover will not feel lonely. Spirit bears are also called Kermode after Francis Kermode, who first studied them. Kermode discovered that a small number of bears carry a gene(基因) for the white fur. If a baby bear received one of these genes from each parent, its fur will be a creamy(像奶油的) white color. There are about 1,200 bears who carry the gene for white fur, but only about 200 white spirit bears in the world. Kermode bears are found only in British Columbia. They live in the Great Bear Rainforest, an area that covers the mainland and islands along the coast of B.C. between Vancouver and Alaska. 44.

A.1/234/5 B.12/34/5 C.12/3/45 D.1/23/45 CMiddle children are more likely to grow up to become successful adults, a study has claimed.Far from being cold or shy, researchers found that a middle childs place in the family helps them develop communication skills.Psychologist Catherine Salmon believed that middle children are more likely to “become leaders of change in business, politics and science”-a conclusion that middle children such as Madonna and Bill Gates would probably support. And they are also more likely to have the driver to succeed in the workplace.Professor Salmon, who wrote The Secret Power of Middle Children, said, “As children, middles have to wait a lot. Modern middles wait while their younger sister or brother is placed int the car seat. They wait while the firstborn performs in the concert. They wait to be served at the dinner table and praised for their hard work in school. Middles are used to not getting what they want right away. They learn to wait, and this helps them later in life.” .Professor Salmon also found that middle children report feeling more distant from their parents and more likely to be easily influenced by their friends. She added,” Middles get less time, attention and resources from their parents, and they often feel painful. But this seems to be short-lived. There is no doubt that this lack of attention can lead to the development of some extremely useful skills.”48. According to the first and second paragraph, middles are more likely to be _.A. cold B. successful C. rude D. shy49. Why would Madonna and Bill Gates probably support this idea?A. Because they make the conclusion.B. Because they believe that middles will become leaders of change in business.C. Because they like to drive to their workplace.D.

Also, middles feel happy from their childhood.D. Instead, parents spend more time on sisters or brothers.DA few years ago I went through a period of such depression (抑郁症) that life didnt seem worth living. It was like winter, so cold that the sun would never shine.Then I saw snowdrops (雪莲花) pushing through the freezing, hard ground. I looked at them everyday until I felt that if they could come back to life, then so could I. Those green shoots gave me hope in a way that nothing else did.As spring came, I started to put in more and more plants, until the garden was filled with color. Life was growing through my hands; gentle, peaceful, but, above all, optimistic. If I gave love, it was returned much more.I could spend hours lost in gardening. The depression I have is passed from my mother. It has affected generation (代) of my family and may happen in any situation. I can be depressed when the sun is shining or I am with a group of loving friends.Of course, fresh air and exercise help to make depression less serious, but for me gardening is more than that. It means patience as well as hope.At the end of the first garden I made stood a huge tree. It stood up to freezing temperature and strong winds. I bent (弯曲) but never broke. The leaves dropped until it was covered with nothing, but it always, always came back to life. And so I learned that we may fail down, but hope is a living thing.52.

This passage is probably from a(n)_A. CD review B. advertisement C. magazine D. guide bookE Homework , exams and most importantly ,test scores - the things you have to worry about seem endless . You are sure not alone . In China , many students are stressed out because of too much homework . But there might be good news for some of them . On Oct.28th , the Education Department of Zhejang Province published a draft ( 提纲) on cutting students homework to ask about public opinions and it had became a hot topic . It gives primary school pupils the right to leave their homework unfinished after 9 pm , and junior high school students after 10pm , with parents permission . Children in Zhejiang will like the draft . However , it has met strong objections (反对) from parents . Although parents dont want their children under too much pressure with homework , many disagree to cut homework down . There is a reason for the objections : gaokao , the “all -important” national college entrance exam . If school reduce homework , “ the parents , who want their children to get higher scores , must provide them with more after-school trainings ,” said a primary school teacher in Hangzhou . The aim of this draft , an official in Zhejiang explained , is to help to treat students differently and make sure they get enough sleep . Chu Zhaohui, a researcher at the National Institute of Education Sciences, also doubted if the guidelines would be carried on . “ They are not suitable in the recent social environments ,” he said to Peoples Daily, “Even if schools make changes , it is difficult to change the way that student study for scores .” He suggests that it would make better sense to make the system of college admissions ( 招生 )more flexible ( 更灵活 ） ， and in many other countries , the performance of students is judged by professional institutions （机构）rather than government. 56.

The officials who are worried about the move .57. What is NOT true according to the passage ?A. The draft is not welcomed by many parents in Zhejiang .B. Maybe parents will send their children to more after-school training.C. The aim of this draft is to make sure students can have enough time to exercise .D. Students should be treated differently .58. What does Chu Zhaohui mainly wants to tell us ?A. Students will have more chances to take part in the activities they like because of the draft .B. The system of college admissions should be changed as the school has made changes .C. Students should spend
