Zoos have been around for centuries — and they’ve changed a lot over the years. In the Middle Ages, wealthy people kept animals in their gardens. Public animal parks appeared in European cities in the late 1700s and early 1800s. The Philadelphia Zoo, the first in the United States, opened in 1874.
Until a few decades (十年) ago, most zoos were organized by creatures — monkeys in one area, cats in another, birds somewhere else, just like museum collections. In recent years, zoos have instead begun grouping animals that would normally interact (互相作用) in the wild. Moreover, instead of closing animals behind bars, designers are creating landscapes like the environments in which these creatures would naturally be found. Nearby signs provide information about the animals and their habitats in parts of the world where they normally live.
The Denver Zoo’s new Predator Ridge exhibit, for example, aims to teach visitors about Africa. Eight acres of land provide homes for 14 animal species, including lions, porcupines, cranes, and wild dogs. Plants from the region grow alongside African-like landform. Ten-foot-tall mounds (土墩) give lions a place from which to survey their surroundings, just as they would do in the wild.
Landscape design makes visitors to the Denver Zoo’s Predator Ridge exhibit feel like they’re really in Africa.
Animals in Predator Ridge can’t actually be mixed with one another, for safety reasons. But hidden deep channels and other smart features allow visitors to see all the animals at once. Different species can see each other too.
1.What is the passage mainly about?
A. Protection of zoo animals.
B. Changes of zoos over the time.
C. The safety problem of zoos.
D. The living habits of zoo animals.
2.In the Denver Zoo ten-foot-tall mounds are built to _____.
A. protect the safety of visitors
B. separate lions from other animals
C. create a natural environment for lions
D. offer visitors a better view of lions
3.The underlined part “the region” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to _____.
A. Africa B. the Predator Ridge exhibit
C. the Denver Zoo D. the ten-foot-tall mounds
4.We can learn from the passage that _____.
A. the earliest zoos were probably rich people’s gardens
B. the Philadelphia Zoo is the first zoo in the world
C. the new Predator Ridge exhibit is held in Africa
D. more animals will be kept in zoos in the future

Shopping in the United States changes a lot. About ninety years ago most people shopped in small stores that were owned by one person or a family. Women went from the bakery to the butcher's to the grocer and on to the fruit and vegetable seller in order to get their food for the week.
Then about sixty years ago, supermarkets were born. In a supermarket, people could get all the different kinds of food they needed without going to different stores.
The next big change in shopping in the United States was the shopping mall. A shopping mall is a group of stores under one roof. Because malls allowed people to shop without worrying about the weather, they soon became very popular. The mall became a place for people to socialize in addition to shopping. If you walk through a mall, you will see older people sitting, chatting and drinking coffee. Malls are places for teenagers to hang out. Many teens will often just“go to the mall”and spend time with their friends.
The recent change in American shopping was the superstore. Large chain stores such as WalMart, Office Depot and Toys“R”Us have been built all across the United States. Because they are so large, they can buy goods at a great discount and sell them much cheaper than smaller stores.
Sometimes, when they are built near small towns, many of the small town stores have to close. They just cannot compete with their giant neighbors.
And now, online shopping is becoming more and more popular all over the States. People are too busy to go to the physical stores, so they go shopping over the Internet. Online shopping has lots of advantages. For instance, online stores are usually available 24 hours a day. Searching or browsing online shops can be faster than browsing the physical stores. While, online shopping also has its disadvantages. People are at higher risk of being cheated on the part of the merchant than in a physical store. And privacy of personal information may be let out.
1.Which of the following shows the right order of shopping development in the United States?
①small stores
②superstores
③shopping malls
④shopping online
⑤supermarkets
A. ①②③④⑤ B. ①⑤②③④
C. ①⑤③②④ D. ②③④①⑤
2.Which is the place for people to spend time with others according to the passage?
A. Shopping malls. B. Small stores.
C. Supermarkets. D. Superstores.
3.Why can the superstores sell products at much lower prices?
A. Because they are built near small towns.
B. Because they are across the United States.
C. Because they sell all kinds of products people need.
D. Because they can buy goods at a reduction in the prices.
4.What's the disadvantage of online shopping according to the passage?
A. Wasting time.
B. Leaking personal information.
C. Fixed prices.
D. No chance to do physical activities.
