He is a northern white rhinoceros, a rare subspecies of white rhinos. But hes not just any northern white rhino.

Sudan, Fatu, and Najin have had their horns _11_ so that poachers (偷猎者) will not want to hunt them.

On Wednesday, for the third time in four years, Dallas Seavey won Alaskas Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. And his father, Mitch Seavey, came in second. Dallas finished the 979mile race in 8 days, 8 hours, 13 minutes and 6 seconds, five hours slower than his recordsetting finish last year. But it was still good enough to win. Dallas owed this to his dog team. “I really do believe that this is one of the best dog teams thats ever been，” he said. The Iditarod route was moved further north than usual this year. Alaska had a warmerthannormal winter. And had the ushers(赶狗拉雪橇的人) used the usual route, they might have been sledding on mud instead of snow and ice. But just as the race was beginning, a cold front ( 冷 锋 ) swept across the state. “The temperature fell 40 below zero and snow fell down，” Dallas said. “It was not the easy run that many people had expected.” The Iditarod is considered the Super Bowl of sled dog racing and honors some brave men. It essentially retraces (重走) the route used in 1925, when men on dog sleds raced across the state to deliver lifesaving serum (血清) to Nome, to stop a potentially deadly disease. Its an extreme test of strength and patience for the human ushers and their dogs. That was a very tough race, but Dallas had a lot of confidence in his dogs and himself. “As long as you take care of the dog team and make good decisions, good things will happen，” Dallas said. For coming in first this year, Dallas got $70,000 and a new pickup truck. Mitch got approximately $58,600 for coming in second. Including Mitchs Iditarod win in 2013, the Seavey family has now won four Iditarods in a row. And judging by what they said on Wednesday, neither the father nor the son plans to quit anytime soon. As long as they were having fun, they said, they would keep on competing. “The win is a result of doing what we love，” Dallas said. 1Who did Dallas think contributed to his winning most? A. His dog team. B. His father. C. His teacher. D. His friends. 2What happened during this years Iditarod? A. Racers moved further south than usual. B. Racers became slower than they did last year. C. Racers had to run in an unexpected snow. D. Racers spent most of their time sledding on mud. 3The original purpose of the Iditarod was to _. A. test humans strength and patience B. amuse those suffering from a deadly disease - 6 - C. develop the teamwork of fierce dogs D. remember those who risked saving others lives 4How many times has Mitch won the Iditarod in the past four years? A. Once. B. Twice. C. Three times. D. Four times. 5In the next Iditarod, Dallas and his father will be _. A. judges B. racers C. coaches D. audience 本文是一篇新闻报道，报道了今年阿拉斯加的狗拉雪橇比赛的相关情况。 1解析：从第二段中的“But it was still good enough to win. Dallas owed this to his dog team”可知，Dallas 认为这次的成功主要归功于他的狗队。 答案：A 2解析：从第四段中的“But just as the race was beginning, a cold front (冷锋) swept across the state. The temperature fell 40 below zero and snow fell down” 可知，比赛过程中，选手们遇到了冷锋，温度骤然下降，大雪纷纷，这给比赛增加了难度，故选 C 项。 答案：C 3解析：从第五段的内容可知，阿拉斯加的狗拉雪橇比赛最初的目的是纪念那些冒着生命危险去送血清的人们，故选 D 项。 答案：D 4 解析 ： 从第一段中的 “for the third time in four years. And his father, Mitch Seavey, came in second”和倒数第二段中的“Including Mitchs Iditarod win in 2013, the Seavey family has now won four Iditarods in a row”可知， 在最近四年的狗拉雪橇比赛中， Seavey 家共获胜四次， 父亲 Mitch Seavey 获胜一次，儿子 Dallas 获胜三次。故选 A 项。 答案：A 5解析：从最后一段中的“As long as they were having fun, they said, they would keep on competing”可知，明年的狗拉雪橇比赛应该依旧可以看到这对父子选手的身影，故选 B 项。 答案：B
