one-homed rhinos!In September,2022,the International Rhino Foundation(IRF)documented in a report that there is a baby boom in thispopulation,representing an increase of 167 percent.According to the report,there are a total of 4,014 greater one-horned rhinos living in India,Nepal,andBhutan.Although this is positive news,their IUCN(International Union for Conservation of Nature)status stillremains vulnerable.In India alone,the home to 70 percent of the worlds greater one-homed rhinos,there was an increase of 274rhinos since the last biannual census,according to the organization Rhino Review.An important reason for this baby boom is the fact that Assam,India,has enlarged Kaziringo National Park,home to the worlds largest one-homed rhino population.The park went from 430 square kilometers to 1,040square kilometers.This gives more breeding areas for the rhinos,and they are closed to visitors during breedingseason.India and Nepal are also protecting the rhinos by enforcing wildlife crime laws.To reduce rhino death bypoaching(偷猎)，the IRF donates vehicles and equipment,plus education including guard training and crimeinvestigation.The IRF data for other rhino species is not as promising,although the greater one-homed rhino numbers areencouraging for future conservation.According to the report,there is a decline in Sumatran rhinos,Africas whiterhinos,while the Javan rhino population is stable and threatened by loss of habitat.The State of the Rhino report offers hope for these other species.Given that the greater one-homed rhinoswere once close to extinction,with fewer than 100 living in the world,their recovery is incredible.Thisdemonstrates that there are solutions when organizations and people work together.Let us hope that thissuccessful rhino baby boom will affect other endangered wildlife species around the globe.What contributes to thebaby boom of one-homed rhinos in Assam,India?A.Extending the protected areas for rhinos.B.Raising fund to set up more reserves for rhinos.（北京）股份有限C.Leaving the one-homed rhinos alone in the wild.D.Keeping visitors away from the Kaziringo National Park.28.How does IRF help protect the one-homed rhinos?A.By cooperating with other organizations.B.By enhancing anti-poaching efforts.C.By transferring the rhinos to other habitats.D.By guarding the rhinos with new equipment.29.What can we learn from the rhino report?A.Rhinos are no longer a vulnerable species.B.Rhinos will affect other wildlife in the world.C.Everyone can play a role in protecting nature.D.It is possible to protect other endangered species.31.What is the purpose of this text?A.To inform good news on the greater one-homed rhinos.B.To show the measures taken to protect the one-homed rhinos.C.To introduce an endangered species-the greater one-homed rhinos.D.To indicate the decline of other species of rhino population.DTo the delight of bookworms,anyone who has ever told you burying your head in a book means youre beingunsociable will have to eat their words.A new study suggests those who regularly read,especially fiction,areactually nicer and more empathetic（善解人意）people.The study,carried out by Kingston University London,and presented at the British Psychological Societyconference in Brighton,UK,last week,also found that those who just watched television seemed to be less kindand understanding of

romance to drama.Thenthey were tested on their interpersonal skills.The researchers asked them about their behavior towards others,whether they understood and respected otherspoints of view,and whether they actively helped other people.Drawing on these responses sheet,the researchers found some mind boggling results.They discoveredthat those who read more showed greater positive social behavior and a better ability to empathize with others,while those who preferred watching TV didnt show the same ability to empathize and were more likely to showunsociable behavior.They also found the forms of fiction people preferred were linked to their interpersonal skills and behavior.Those who preferred fiction displayed the most positive social skills.Romance and drama lovers showed theability to see others9points of view,while comedy fans were particularly,able to relate to others the most.The researchers concluded that those who read fiction regularly are more well-adapted to see things fromother peoples points of view,which makes them better at understanding people.However,they do acknowledgethat their study didnt conclude if the effects are causal-does reading make you nicer and more empathetic,or do（北京）股份有限more empathetic people tend to read fiction?Even so,picking up a book cant hurt,and might just make theworld a nicer place.32.How did the researchers conduct the

burned out.36 This is a very unproductive way to spend your time and energy.37 Say your goal is to get up an hour earlier every day.One day you start setting your alarm for an hourearlier and you keep this up for one week.Then because you are naturally resistant to change,you go back to yourold habit.A better way is to set your alarm one minute earlier every day.After two months you are getting up anhour earlier and you will not even notice the change.38This approach can work for just about anything.K you are exercising for half an hour every day and youwant to increase that time to one hour then add a minute every day.After one month you will have reached yourgoal with very little resistance from your body and mind.39This method of change is gentle,but very powerful.Think of everything you can accomplish if you justcontinuously improve a little at a time.The change itself creates the momentum（动力）you need to keep going.40 What one minute change can you make to your life today?A.The key is to change a little bit at a time.B.Keeping on exercising can build up strength.C.It may take longer,but with this approach you are likely to succeed.D.Nothing will happen if you are not
