Many people may not believe it, but this is what is happening: polar bears are dying out! They are dying because they are losing a great deal of habitat due to human incursion（侵入）and global warming.　 They are dying because of starvation as well.　 With the sea ice they depend on for survival shrinking, it is becoming increasingly difficult for them to find food.

An ecosystem is highly dependent on all of its parts, and removing even a single species can result in serious consequences.　 Polar bears are at the top of the predators（捕食性动物）where they live.　 They play an important part in the ecosystem.　 They feed on seals, fish and deer.　 Several other animals depend on the kill of polar bears.　 The failure to save polar bears might result in loss of these predators.

In addition, all large predators perform a very important function in their habitat: helping to control the populations of other species.　 When an animal group loses its natural predators, its population will rise rapidly, having a direct result in population decrease of other groups.　 A huge boom in population of Arctic seals would have a direct effect on the prey(捕食) of seals, and could reduce numbers of certain types of fish.

This could also have a direct effect on humans, who might have to compete with Arctic seals for food supplies from fish. Lack of polar bears could eventually affect human food supply. Human beings shall save polar bears to ensure the food supply.

There is no doubt that we should save polar bears.　 However, there is still another question: can they be saved? This is a matter that scientists debate because of rapid degradation（恶化）of the polar bear’ environment in recent years due to warming temperatures.　 It is estimated that if the bears cannot adapt to changing climates, they might die out before the end of the 21st century, with about 50% of the animals disappearing by 2050. So time is running out!

There are some things that may help slow down global warming and help delay extinction of polar bears.　 These include finding new energy sources that don’t give off greenhouse gases and not making any more incursions into polar bear’s territory.

1.Which is NOT the threat to the survival of polar bears according to the passage?

A. Human’s killing.　　　 B. Global warming.

C. Habitat loss.　　　　 　　 D. Lack of food.

2.Why do we need to save polar bears?

A. For the predators in the ecosystem.

B. For the seals in Arctic Circle.

C. For our own source of food.

D. For our environment.

3.If bears can’t adapt to changing climates, we will probably have lost 　　 _____　 by the middle of the 21st century.

A. half of polar bears

B. most of polar bears

C. 90% of polar bears

D. all of polar bears

4.We can infer that 　 _____　　 .

A. nothing can prevent the extinction of polar bears

B. drilling for oil in the Arctic should be encouraged

C. polar bears can surely adapt to changing climates

D. using solar energy is good for saving polar bears

Many people believe that classical music has nothing to do with young people today. However, this issue(问题) frequently causes heated debate.

Some people say that classical music is associated only with old people. For example, if you look at the audience at a classical concert, the majority is over the age of fifty.

Others say it is more popular than we first imagine. Many young people listen to classical music without realizing it. It is often used in films and advertisements. For example, a famous piece of classical music was used as the theme music for the 1990 World Cup. Not many people could have given its name, but millions enjoyed it.

Also, some people point out that young people produce new music based on classical ideas: for example, it is said that rap(说唱) music was invented by a classical musician in 1912, but it is now used by young people in pop music.

However, young people point to the fact that classical music has been outstripped(超越) by technology. To play a classical instrument, such as a violin, you need to study hard and practice for hours. Nowadays, you don’t need to get aching arms from practicing. A teenager can write and make music using a computer program in the comfort of their own bedroom.

A final point to bear in mind is that the term "classical music" is used to refer to a great variety of music, from jazz to pieces for large orchestras. This makes it even more difficult to say whether classical music is relevant（与…相关） to young people.

So, it may be only a minority of young people who play classical instruments, but when it comes to enjoying classical music, it depends on the piece of music. It may be more relevant to young people in the modern world than they realize!

I was born into a family of five children. As the youngest child, I didn’t have many new clothes. Though my parents worked very hard, we could hardly make ends meet. The only time we would receive new clothes was at Christmas.

The family across the street lived a much better life. They just had two daughters and they were often seen wearing new dresses. The younger girl named Anna was of my age. One afternoon, she walked on the street wearing a beautiful white dress. She looked like an angel in that dress. I, together with many little girls, followed her. We just couldn’t keep our eyes off her dress. We all wished we would have such a dress one day!

That day, after coming back, I told my mom that I wanted a dress like that. My mom frowned(皱眉) she thought such a beautiful dress like that must cost an arm and a leg, but my mom kept that in mind. She worked five days a week at that time, but when Christmas was getting close, she worked even on every Saturday.

However, several days before Christmas, I changed my mind. It was Anna’s birthday that day and I was invited to her home with some other girls. After that party, I asked if I could try on her white dress. “Of course,” she said, “and you can take it if you like it.” I couldn’t believe my ears. How could she give such a beautiful dress to someone else? After trying it on, I knew why.

高二英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

This fourth of July I moved into a new house with my wife, Nicole. Nicole and I met through a series of coincidences that would be unlikely without some unbelievable force causing them to happen.

The day Nicole and I met, we talked about the Yankees. In the restaurant where we sat, the first game between the Yanks and Tampa Bay was being shown on television. Nicole was happy I was a baseball fan, and she told me that was an important reason when she considered dating (约会) me. “My dad wouldn’t like me dating anyone who isn’t,” she said.

Nicole’s dad, Ira, used to be a coach for the Yankees. Many years ago, a colleague (同事) of his was leaving and packing up his office. The only thing left unpacked was a photo on the wall. It was a picture of Sparky Lyle, a famous baseball player. Sparky had signed the photo on the bottom.

“You’re not taking that?” Ira asked. “You want it?” his colleague offered. “Sure!” Ira said. He jumped at the chance to have a signed photo from a great player who had helped the team win two World Series.

Ira told me the story after the movers had gone. He then said to me, “Adam, when I first learned who was dating my daughter, that photo came into my mind,” he said. “But by now, I know for sure you’re meant to have it.” He then presented me with a box. I tore it open. Inside was the signed photo of Sparky Lyle which I had lost years ago.

“To Adam, Best Wishes, Sparky Lyle”. It was picked up by Nicole’s dad years before I’d even met her. The perfect gift — a sign only making me believe what I already knew ... I was meant for Nicole and her family all along.

1.What does the underlined word “coincidences” in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. New things.

A. he was able

B. he was a baseball fan

C. he got a new house

D. they had much in common

3.Ira got the photo of Sparky Lyle from _____.

A. Sparky Lyle　　 　　　　 B. Nicole
