Alpacas(羊驼) are members of the camel family, having lived in South America for thousands of years. Their fur gives the animals a teddy bear_like appearance. Alpacas are too small to be used as animals of burden but are valued only for their fur. Generally, their lifespan is around 15 to 20 years.
Alpacas are social animals that live in family groups made up of a male, females and their young. They are gentle, elegant, curious, intelligent and observant. They are safe and pleasant to be around, moving gracefully and slowly around the field, and are therefore unlikely to run into or over anyone, even small children. Occasionally, an alpaca will spit snd kick, but the soft padded(有爪垫的) feet usually do little more than just“get your attention”.
Because these animals are environmentally friendly and need so little grass and food, you can usually raise from two to eight alpacas on an acre of land with grass or hay. A single, 60 pound bale(大捆) of hay can generally feed a group of about 20 alpacas for one day. Alpacas also require access to plenty of fresh water to drink.
Alpaca fur is used for making knittedd and woven(编织) items, just as sheep’s wool is.These items include blankets, sweaters, hats, gloves, scarves, a wide variety of textiles(针织品) in South America, and sweaters, socks, coats and bedding in other parts of the world. The fur comes in more than 52 natural colors as classified in Peru, 12 as classified in Australia and 16 as classified in the United States.
1.According to the text, alpacas can be best used_______.
A. for long distance rides
B. to protect home
C. for children to play with
D. to carry heavy goods
2.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Alpaca’s kick can’t hurt you.
B. Alpacas want to draw your attention.
C. You must look out for Alpacas’ attack.
D. You should pay more attention to Alpaca
3.If you have 5 acres of land to raise Alpacas, how much hay do you need a day at most?
A. 60 pounds.
B. 120 pounds.
C. 100 pounds.
D. 180 pounds.

Waste heat from one of the London Underground’s lines will be used to warm over a thousand homes in the UK capital this winter. The warm air will be channeled from the Northern Line to support the London Borough of Islington’s district heating.
Named Bunhill 2,the heat network is a joint project between Islington Council, Transport for London and engineering firm Ramboll and is considered as the first of its kind in Europe. The council hopes the system will make London more self-sufficient (自给自足的) in energy, cut carbon emissions and reduce heating bills for people.Meanwhile, tube passengers on the underground can also expect cooler air.
District heating, also known as heat networks, is the supply of heat and hot water from a central source to a group of buildings. The Bunhill 2 district heating system is the second phase (阶段) of Islington Council’s Bunhill Heat and Power scheme-a heat network in Islington that was established in 2013 to warm approximately 700 homes.
The network currently channels heat created in the Bunhill Energy Centre power station into local council housing, schools and a leisure centre. Bunhill 2 will extend this network to more community buildings and a further 450 homes.
The central source of the Bunhill 2 heat network is a ventilation shaft (通风井)-a passage that is used to expel waste heat-in the abandoned (废弃的) City Road station. A heat pump designed by Ramboll will capture this extra heat from the ventilation shaft, before it is warmed to approximately 70 degrees Celsius. This will then be transferred (转移) into Islington’s heat network to supply heat and hot water to buildings.
According to the Greater London Authority, there is enough heat wasted in London to meet 38 per cent of the city’s heating demand. The expansion of district heating networks like Bunhill 2 could see this increase to 63 per cent by 2050.
“We believe that the use of large-scale heat in this way connected to urban district heating systems will play a major part in the Uk’s heating energy demand,” explained Lucy Padfield, director of District Heating at Ramboll.
“The use of heat pumps taking advantage of industrial waste heat sources is more carbon efficient than gas-fired combined heat and power, the usual source of heat for district energy schemes,” she continued. “I am convinced that with the increasing use of renewable power sources, large-scale heat pumps connected to district heating systems will play a major role in the future heating of cities in the UK.”
1.What can we learn about Bunhill 2 in London?
A.It is inspired by other cities in Europe.
B.It will be beneficial to London’s environment.
C.It can satisfy the whole city’s need for energy.
D.It is aimed at cooling the London Underground.
2.What does the underlined word “expel” in Paragraph 5 most probably mean?
A.Rely on B.Deal with.
C.Break down. D.Drive out
3.What is Lucy Padfield’s attitude towards Bunhill 2?
A.Concerned. B.Confident
C.Amazed D.Disapproving
4.What is the text mainly about?
A.London’s special way to protect the environment.
B.The development of London’s district heating network.
C.Using waste heat from the underground to warm homes.
D.Ways to deal with the London Underground’s waste heat.

I arrived at my mother’s home for our Monday family dinner. The smells of food flew over from the kitchen. Mother was pulling out quilt after quilt from the boxes, proudly showing me their beauties. She was preparing for a quilt show at the Elmhurst Church. When we began to fold and put them back into the boxes, I noticed something at the bottom of one box. I pulled it out. “What is this?” I asked.
“Oh?” Mom said, “That’s Mama’s quilt.”
I spread the quilt. It looked at if a group of school children had pieced it together; irregular designs, childish pictures, a crooked line on the right.
“Grandmother made this?” I said, surprised. My grandmother was a master at making quilts. This certainly didn’t look like any of the quilts she had made.
“Yes, right before she died. I brought it home with me last year and made some changes,” she said. “I’m still working on it. See, this is what I’ve done so far.”
I looked at it more closely. She had made straight a crooked line. At the center of the quilt, she had stitched(缝) a piece of cloth with these words: “My mother made many quilts. She didn’t get all lines straight. But I think this is beautiful. I want to see it finished. Her last quilt.”
“Oh, this is so nice, Mom,” I said. It occurred to me that by completing my grandmother’s quilt, my mother was honoring her own mother. I realized, too, that I held in my hands a family treasure. It started with the loving hands of one woman, and continued with the loving hands of another.
1.Why did the author go to mother’s home?
A. To see her mother’s quilts.
B. To help prepare for a show.
C. To get together for the family dinner.
D. To discuss her grandmother’s life.
2.The author was surprised because .
A. the quilt looked very strange.
B. her grandmother liked the quilt.
C. the quilt was the best she had seen.
D. her mother had made some changes
3.The underlined wood “crooked” in the passage most probably means .
A. unfinished
B. broken
C. bent
D. unusual
4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. A Quilt Show
