Here in Alaska, the wolf almost disappeared a few years ago, because hunters were killing hundreds of them for sport. However, laws were passed to protect the wolves from sportsmen and people who catch the animals for their fur. So the wolf population has greatly increased. Now there are so many wolves that they are destroying their own food supply.
A wolf naturally lives on animals in the deer family. People there also hunt deer for food. Many of the animals have been destroyed by the very cold winters recently and by changes in the plant life there. When the deer can’t find enough food, they die.
If the wolves continue to kill large numbers of deer, the deer will disappear some day. And the wolves will, too. So we must change the life cycles there. If we killed more wolves, we would save them from starving. We also save deer and some farm animals.
In another northern state, wolves attack cows and chickens for food. Farmers want the United States government to send a team of scientists to study the problem. They believe it is necessary to kill wolves in some areas and to protect them in places where there is a small population.
1.In Alaska, laws have been passed to ____.
A．protect people from wolves and deer
B．protect wolves from becoming dangerous
C．protect wolves from dying out
D．keep wolves from killing large numbers of deer
2.Why is it that if wolves go on killing a good many deer the wolves will die out?
A．Because wolves will have no deer to kill.
B．Because people will kill them for punishment.
C．Because killing deer is dangerous.
D．Because wolves mainly live on deer.
3.In order to protect more deer from being killed, one way is to ____.
A．pass a law B．keep deer away from wolves
C．kill more wolves D．serve wolves more food
4.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．Some wolves in some areas must be killed, which others should be protected.
B．Wolves should be protected, for there’s a small population of it on earth.
C．All wolves should be protected, for they eat deer, cows and chicken.
D．It is necessary for scientists to protect wolves, or the cycle of life will be changed

It was the beginning of the school year a few years ago and I had a little boy in my class who came from a non-English speaking home. He was very quiet and shy. I wasn’t sure how much he understood during the school day and I was especially concerned that he just stood by himself at break time and did not play. If I tried to talk to him, he would turn away and tightly shut his eyes to hide from me.
After a day or two of this, I decided to seek the help of one of my outgoing and friendly little girls. I called her over and she ran to me, ready to help.
I immediately began a long speech about what I needed from her. I asked her if she would try to get him to play, and I started talking quickly about all these suggestions on how she could start communicating with him. I explained she could do this, she could do that, she could try this idea, she could try that idea. She touched my arm to stop my talking and looked up at me in that wise and special way that only a six-year-old can, and said, “Don’t worry. I speak kid.” And she ran off.
I stood there all alone, silently watching her. It took less than a minute for the two new friends to run off, hand in hand, happily joining a game of tag(捉人游戏) taking place all over the gym.
I often think of that small moment, about what I learned and how important it is for all teachers to speak kid—big kid, little kid and middle kid. I knew my focus must be on teaching students how to think, how to approach problems, and how to figure out solutions and never take the opportunity away. We must be ready to learn from our students because those “teachable moments” during the school days are for us, the teachers, as well as our kids.
1..
Why did the author worry about the boy?
A. He didn’t dare to look the author in the eye.
B. He couldn’t speak English as well as other students.
C. He failed to understand what the author taught.
D. He was unwilling to communicate with others.
2..
After the girl agreed to help, the author________.
A. taught her what to do in detail B. thanked her for her willingness to help
C. sent her to make friends with the boy at once
D. reminded her of what she should be careful about
3..
By saying “I speak kid”, the girl meant that she could________.
A. speak the language that kids understand B. speak the boy’s native language
C. understand what kids are thinking D. speak well like a little kid
4..
The underlined words “the opportunity” refer to the chance to ________.
A. play at break time B. learn from students
C. solve problems D. speak kid

Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.
After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, "I wonder why that woman doesn't wash her window. It really looks terrible."
One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.
Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean!
Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.
That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings?
Since then, whenever I wanted to judge someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?”
Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me clearly.
