When you visit some national parks, you are entering animals* habitat. 29 If not, wildlife may face the following serious risks when you get close enough tointeract with them:Consequences of Physical Contact with PeopleSome animals, from bison to birds. may be rejected by their parents if they have contact with humans. 30 In addition, wildlife can get injured when they try to escape people who have gotten too close, especially if they are near human structures or roads.Fatal Diseases from People and PetsOur domestic pets can also pose real dangers to the wildlife within parks. Both pets and people may have diseases that they can give to wildlife. Sadly, there are many examples of wildlife in parks dying from diseases given to them by pets and humans. For example, heartworm from cats can kill wildlife such as foxes, coyotes, bobcats, and mountain lions. Black-footed ferrets die from the flu if humans are sick and get too close. 31 So keeping your pets vaccinated can keep them and wildlife safe.Dangers of Eating Human Food and/or Trash (垃圾)When visitors intentionally or unintentionally feed wildlife, it has negative effects on the wildlife. Some of the dangers to wildlife include shorter lives. The best way for wildlife to have a healthy diet and live healthy lives is to search for food as they would naturally. Relying on human food or trash left out puts wildlife at risk.32 Animals becoming used to and attracted to human food will actively seek out human food. This in the worst cases can make them dangerous. Ground squirrels can bite, deer have sharp antlers (鹿角),and bears can get into cars or tents in search of food. 33 It means they may be killed by park managers for safety reasons.It's important to understand how your actions may affect the wildlife in parks. When you respect wildlife, you help protect park animals and yourself.A. These animals must be removed.B. You need to behave like a polite guest.C. Wolves can be infected by virus from dogs.D. So its best to resist the urge to pet and hold them.E. Actually, some of them may behave in a strange way.F. Observing wildlife in their native habitat can be an educational and fun experience.G. Learning to eat human food can also change the way that wildlife interact with people.【答案】29.B30. D 31. C 32. G 33.

She sometimes feels ashamed about that. "If you are not working yourself to the bone and crying yourself to sleep every night." she asks, nare you working hard enough?nBut evidence suggests that hobbies such as Kelly's satisfy more than just the stomach. Research has linked participation in leisure activities to many measures of physical and mental well-being, from reduced blood pressure to a sense of belonging. We need to see hobbies and work as win-win games.Carving out free time can be challenging, but there are strategies for success. Jingmei Li, a cancer researcher from Singapore, uses most of her holiday time for driving trips. Jennifer Hertzberg, a psychologist at the University of California, tries to keep the weekends free for her hobby, building Legos.Many scientists like them have found that hobbies offer them a break from the stress of doing science. Everyone-including scientists-can get stuck in ways of thinking that prevent them from finding a solution to a problem, no matter how hard they work. Evidence suggests that taking a break or doing something different can help improve problem-solving, by revealing a new approach or an overlooked detail. And when scientists are stuck at work, hobbies can provide a sense of accomplishment. Jennifer thinks what she likes most about Lego blocks is that she can complete them in a relatively short amount of time while she labours on long-term scientific projects.Pastimes also lead to inspiration. When astronomers first caught a glimpse of the Moon through a telescope, Galileo quickly realized that the shadows on its face indicated that its surface was rough and mountainous- not smooth. That's because Galileo liked painting, and had learnt how to represent 3D objects on a flat canvas (画布).Due to the benefits of hobbies, they should be valued in the culture of science. Success in science and having a life don*t conflict. Scientists* contribution depends more on the qualitynot the quantityof their work. And really, that is a way of living that is focused on creativity and innovation and not on just producing more.34. What makes Audrey Kelly feel ashamed?35. Why does Jennifer like building Legos?36. Why does the author mention Galileo's story in Paragraph 5?37. Do you think that hobbies benefit your study? Why or why no!? (In about 40 words) 【答案】34. That she felt she wasn't working hard enough.35. To relieve stress at workTo prove that pastimes also lead to inspiration.1.1 1 think hobbies benefit my study.
