14、e zoos are essential for the survival of endangered species.To argue that zoos imprison animals is to misunderstand what zoos are about. Without zoos many of the creatures we love and admire would no longer exist. Every single day，over one hundred animal species vanish. Scientists predict that as ea

15、rly as 2050 one quarter of the Earths species will become extinct.Some animals are in danger because they are hunted. Alarmingly, the population of tigers has already fallen by ninety-five percent. Other species are in danger because of a lack of food. For example, there are fewer than 1300 giant pa

16、ndas left in the wild.Zoos have special breeding programmes to help those animals at risk. These breeding programmes are proving extremely successful.

22、icycles are elegantly simple machines that are common around the world. Many people ride bicycles for recreation, whereas others use them as a means of transportation. The first bicycle was invented in Germany in 1818. Because it was made of wood, it wasnt very strong nor did it have pedals (脚踏板）.Ri

23、ders moved it by pushing their feet against the ground.In 1839, Kirkpatrick Macmillan, a Scottish blacksmith, invented a much better bicycle. Macmillans machine had iron-covered wheels to keep them from getting worn down. He also used foot-operated levers, similar to pedals, so his bicycle could be

24、ridden at a quick pace. It didnt look much like the modem bicycle, though, because its back wheel was substantially larger than its front wheel. Although Macmillans bicycles could be ridden easily, they were never produced in large numbers.In 1861, Frenchman Pierre Michaux and his brother Ernest inv

25、ented a bicycle with an improved pedal mechanism. They called their bicycle a velocipede，but most people called it a “bone shaker” because of the effect of the wood and iron frame. Despite the impolite nickname, the velocipede was a hit. After a few years, the Michaux family was making hundreds of t

26、he machines annually, mostly for fun-seeking young people.Ten years later, James Starley , an English inventor, made several innovations that revolutionized bicycle design. He made the front wheel many times larger than the back wheel, put a gear on the pedals to make the bicycle more efficient，and

27、lightened the wheels by using wire spokes. Although this bicycle was much lighter and less tiring to ride, it was still clumsy, extremely top-heavy，and ridden mostly for entertainment.It wasnt until 1874 that the first truly modern bicycle appeared on the scene. Invented by another Englishman, H. J.

28、 Lawson, the safety bicycle would look familiar to todays cyclists. The safety bicycle had equal-sized wheels, which made it easier to ride. Lawson also attached a chain to the pedals to drive the back wheel. By 1893，the safety bicycle had been further improved with air-filled rubber tires, a diamon

29、d-shaped frame, and easy braking. With the improvements provided by Lawson; bicycles became extremely popular and useful for transportation. Today, they are built, used, and enjoyed all over the world.31.This passage was most likely written in order to _.A.compare bicycles used for different purpose

30、sB.describe the problems early bicycle makers experiencedC.persuade readers to use bicycles for transportationD.tell readers about the early history of the bicycle32.Macmillan covered the wheels of his bicycle with iron to _A.add weight to the bicycleB_ make the bicycle easier to rideC.allow the whe

33、 around the world have paused at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month to honour the sacrifices our soldiers have made in different wars, fighting for the freedoms that we all enjoy today.Known as Remembrance Day, the day originated as a tribute to the soldiers of WWI， a dark period for ou

34、r young country, which claimed the lives of over 60,000 military personnel and civilians and over 16 million dead worldwide.As there are no more surviving soldiers of WWI，today we rely on the wisdom and words of those soldiers who fought in the wars that followed，and this day now also recognizes the

35、ir heroic contribution.They tell us to always remember what those brave souls fought for, and all they ask in return is that we never forget.Thats why we wear the red poppy (罂粟花);thats why when we see a soldier in uniform we should stop him or her and say “Thank you” ; thats why we take a pause from

36、 our busy lives for two short minutes today to honor that request.Yet this message is fading away, year after year.Take for example the terrible decision to allow parents to excuse students from Remembrance Day ceremonies at school.Not only is this disrespectful, it distances the student from his or

37、 her classmates.It is difficult to understand why any Canadian parent would want to remove their child from the time-honored tradition of reading the poem In Flanders Fields, while a wreath of poppies is laid.It is more important than ever to teach school-aged children about our history，no matter ho

38、w violent it was. Sheltering them from the realities of war is a great disservice.Understanding why conflicts happened, or happen today, can help shape choices and decisions they make as adults.Of course, because we live in a free society, we cannot force an individual to do something. It is unfortu

39、nate, but some parents now have their child “opt-out” of the services. These people should be reminded they are free to make such choices only because of the men and women the rest of us are remembering.36.Which of the following is true about Remembrance DayA.Its only held in Canada.B.Its ceremony l

41、pect.D.Showing gratitude to soldiers in uniform.38.What can we learn from the passageA.War history is too violent for school children.B.The writer was once a soldier in the Canadian army.C.Few students are willing to take part in Remembrance Day ceremonies.D.More parents are keeping their children a

42、way from frightening war stories.39.The underlined word “It” in the last paragraph probably refers to _A.the death of so many soldiers in warsB.the fact that there were so many wars after WWIC.peoples ungratefulness for the freedom they haveD.removing children from Remembrance Day events39.The write

43、r believes that.A.the sacrifice of the soldiers should always be rememberedB.Remembrance Day is becoming less important for soldiersC.schools - no longer think Remembrance Day is necessaryD.people should be forced to learn about the realities of warDAmerican actor Johnny Depp can best be described a

44、s unconventional. From his early life, his path into acting and even in his choice of movie roles，we can see that Depp has seldom taken the easy road. His willingness to take risks and do the unexpected has made Depp one of the few Hollywood actors able to achieve huge commercial success while maint

45、aining his artistic reputation.Born in 1963，Depp was somewhat troublesome as a youth,.occasionally turning to petty-crime and drugs. When his parents divorced in 1978，Depp dropped out of school against his mothers wishes and started a music band called the Kids. Although the band achieved some succe

46、ss, they were seldom able to make ends meet， with Depp often unable to pay his rent, sleeping rough on friends sofas and even in his car.In 1983，the ever-optimistic Depp and his new wife, Lori Anderson, moved to Hollywood California to further Depps musical career. But life there continued to be a s

47、truggle and Depp was forced to take a job selling pens door to door to support his new family. His luck changed when Loris ex-boyfriend, the famous actor Nicholas Cage, impressed by Depps good looks and intelligence, suggested he become an actor and helped him get a small part in a movie. Several other minor movie roles and a divorce from Lori followed，before Depp got his big break three years later. He landed the leading role in the television series 21 Jump St
