However, wolves have a softer, more social side, one that has been embraced by a heart-warming new init

10、iative.In a bid to save some of Europes last wolves, scientists have explored the willingness of these supposedly fierce creatures to help others of their kind. Female wolves, the scientists have discovered, make excellent foster parents to wolf cubs that are not their own. The study, published in Z

11、oo Biology, suggests that captive-bred wolf cubs（幼兽）could be placed with wild wolf families, boosting the wild population.The gray wolf was once the worlds most widely distributed mammal, but it became extinct as a result of widespread habitat destruction and the deliberate killing of wolves suspect

12、ed of preying on livestock. Fear and hatred of the wolf have since become culturally rooted, fuelled by myths, fables and stories.In Scandinavia, the gray wolf is endangered, the remaining population found by just five animals. As a result, European wolves are severely inbred and have little genetic

13、 variability变异性,making them vulnerable to threats, such as outbreaks of disease that they cant adapt to quickly. So Inger Scharis and Mats Amundin of Linkoping University, in Sweden, started Europe5s first gray wolf-fostering program. They worked with wolves kept at seven zoos across Scandinavia. Ei

14、ght wolf cubs between four and six days old were removed from their natural parents and placed with other wolf packs in other zoos. The foster mothers accepted the new cubs placed in their midst.The welfare of the foster cubs and the wolves natural behavior were monitored using a system of surve川anc

15、e cameras. The foster cubs had a similar growth rate as their step siblings in the recipient litter, as well as their biological siblings in the source litter. The foster cubs had a better overall survival rate, with 73% surviving until 33 weeks, than their biological siblings left behind, of which

16、63% survived. That rate of survival is similar to that seen in wild wolf cubs. Scientists believe that wolves can recognize their young, but this study suggests they can only do so once cubs are somewhere between three to seven weeks of age.If captive-bred cubs can be placed with wild-living familie

17、s, which already have cubs of a similar age, not only will they have a good chance of survival, but they could help dramatically increase the diversity of the wild population, say the researchers. Just like the wild wolves they would join, these foster cubs would need protection from hunting. Their

18、arrival could help preserve the future of one of natures most iconic and polarizing animals.61. Whafs the theme of the passage?A. Giving wolf cubs a new lifeB. Foster wolf parents and foster cubsC. The fate of wild wolvesD. Changing diversity of wild wolvesWhich of the following flow chart best demo

21、wareness of protecting wolvesSection CDirections: Read the following passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once.

22、iuses all seem to have a mission beyond their individual identity.C.She is establishing habits of thought she can call upon in order to understand or solve D. Practicing ambitiously would be a driving force of women approaching the success.E. This contact would give the girl a vision of her future s

23、elf.F. Instead, its deliberate practice.The latest research suggests that the key factor separating geniuses from the merely accomplished is not I.Q., a generally bad predictor of success. (67)Top performers spend more hours practicing their craft. If you wanted to picture how a typical genius might

24、 develop, youd take a girl who possessed a slightly above average verbal ability. It wouldnt have to be a big talent, just enough so that she might gain some sense of distinction. Then you would want her to meet, say, a novelist, who coincidentally shared some similar biographical traits. Maybe the

25、writer was from the same town, had the same ethnic background, or, shared the same birthday.(68) It would give her some idea of a fascinating circle she might someday join. It would also help if one of her parents died when she was 12, giving her a strong sense of insecurity and fueling a desperate

26、need for success. Armed with this ambition, she would read novels and life stories of writers without end. This would give her a primary knowledge of her field. Shed be able to see new writing in deeper ways and quickly perceive its inner workings.Then she would practice writing. Her practice would

27、be slow, painstaking and error- focused. By practicing in this way, she delays the automatizing process. Her mind wants to turn conscious, newly learned skills into unconscious, automatically performed sk川s. By practicing slowly, by breaking sk川s down into tiny parts and repeating, she forces the br

28、ain to internalize a better pattern of performance. Then she would find an adviser who would provide a constant stream of feedback, viewing her performance from the outside, correcting the smallest errors, pushing her to take on tougher challenges. By now she isredoing problemshow do I get character

29、s into a room-dozens and dozens of times. (69)The primary trait she possesses is not some mysterious genius. Its the ability to develop a purposeful, laborious and boring practice routine. The latest research takes some of the magic out of great achievement. But it underlines a fact that is often ne

30、glected. Public discussion is affected by genetics and what we5re “hard-wired to do. And its true that genes play a role in our capabilities. (70)We construct ourselves through behavior.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main points of the pass

31、age in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.According to an official report on youth violence, uln our country today, the greatest threat to the lives children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence/7 Given that this

32、is the case, why arent students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit?First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. It is reported that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor

33、insult. For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence.If the conflict occurs, students can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution: stay calm. On

34、ce the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words and accusations only add fuel to the emotional fire while soft words can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.After that, they can use another key strategy for conflict r

35、esolution: listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterwards, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speakers position. Then the two people should

36、change roles.Finally, students need to consider what they are hearing. An argument doesnt mean trying to figure out the fault of the other person but means understanding what the real issue is. As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller.V. TranslationDirections: Translat
