MOSCOW, Sept. 4 (Xinhuanet)--- At least 335 people including 155 children, were killed in the three---day hostage crisis (人质危机) in a southern Russian school, Russia’s Deputy Prosecutor General Sergei Fridinsky said on Saturday.

“We are still identifying the bodies. We have recovered 322 bodies, and 155 of them are children,” Fridinsky was quoted by the Itar-Tass news agency as saying.

The prosecutor said the death toll would probably grow as the clean-up operation is continuing at the site, but it will not rise considerably.

Emergency workers pulled the bodies out of the school on Saturday, after Russian special forces rescued more than 400 children and adults hostages in a special operation that has suppressed (平定)the hostage -taking standoff by Friday night.

Valery Andreyev, regional chief of the Federal Security Service (FSS), said Friday that over 30 armed militants took part in the hostage-taking crisis and Russian troops captured three of them alive on Friday, according to the Interfax news agency.

He said people of Russian origin and foreign nationals were among the killed hostage-takers. Earlier official information showed that ten Arab militants were killed in Friday’s raid (突袭).

Andreyev said a large amount of explosives (爆炸物)and mines planted by hostage-takers in the school have been found.

Rusian Presidnet Vladimir Putin made a surprise visit early Saturday to the southern Russian town of Beslan where commandos (突击队) stormed the school to end the hostage crisis. He accused the attackers of trying to spark an racial conflict that would engulf (卷入)Russia’s troubled Caucasus Mountains region.

63. It can be inferred that the Russian hostage crisis began on ________.

A. Wednesday    B. Monday     C. Friday            D. Saturday

高三英语阅读理解简单题查看答案及解析

In 2013 alone at least 20,000 African elephants were killed for their teeth. In South Africa over the last two years more than 2,200 rhinos were killed for their horns. These numbers are alarming, because current rates of illegal hunting are faster than birth rates, which could lead to extinction for these ecologically important creatures in their environment. Indeed, some elephant and rhino populations are on track to be locally extinct within the next decade.

If you are reading this, you may already be aware of these facts. But you might not know that wildlife trafficking (走私) not only threatens the existence of elephants and rhinos but is also leading to extinction of other species, such as tigers, tortoises, sea turtles—and the world’s most trafficked mammal—pangolins (穿山甲).

Pangolins are the only mammals that are entirely covered in tough scales (鳞)，which makes them look very strong. But actually they are endangered mammals. There are eight different species of pangolins, four in Asia and four in Africa, and all are threatened with extinction. Although pangolins are protected throughout most of the countries where they live, high demand in East Asia, where the delicious pangolin meat is considered a delicacy and where their scales are used in traditional medicines, is driving an illegal trade in both live animals and pangolin parts. The number of pangolin trafficking is shocking. Experts believe that over the last 10 years more than 1 million pangolins were taken from the wild. It is estimated that between 40,000 and 81,250 pangolins were killed for the illegal trade in 2013 alone.

In February, the United States released a plan to deal with wildlife trafficking, which lays out the steps we will take to fight the illegal trade in wildlife, including pangolins. We are strengthening the carrying out of the plan; building international cooperation and contribution to protect wildlife; raising awareness to drive down the demand that is fueling the illegal trade.

Get involved and remember World Wildlife Day (March 3) by spreading the plan. Use social media and tell everyone that now is the time to get serious about wildlife crime and end the demand that threatens species, big and small, from the huge elephant to the shy pangolin.

1.How many endangered creatures are mentioned in the passage?

A. 4.　　 B. 5.

C. 6.　　 D. 7.

2.Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?

A. Eight species of pangolins live on the same continent.

B. Pangolins are not protected in most of their natural habitats.

C. The scales of pangolins can be used as an ingredient for cooking.

D. High demand contributes to the illegal trade of pangolins in East Asia.

3.What can we know about the plan released by the US?

A. Social media will be used to spread World Wildlife Day.

B. Whether the plan will be worked out remains to be seen.

C. The demand leading to the illegal trade in East Asia is to be brought down.

D. The US will work together with other countries to protect wildlife.

4.What is the author’s intention of writing the passage?

A. To inform us something about World Wildlife Day.

B. To raise awareness of protecting endangered wildlife.

C. To explain why pangolins are illegally traded in East Asia.

D. To show how the United States is to fight the illegal trade in wildlife.
