Dear friend,
For the past 17 years, you have been my best friend. I remember that you told me you were called Cigarette because of your features. You have seen me through difficult times, happy times and just about every stage of my life. You have always been here when I need you. Some of my family and friends didn’t like you so much, but I’ve always been on your side. I thought you were a great friend, and I counted on you at all times, especially when I was not very happy.
It’s hard for me to tell you this, but in the past few months, I have been seriously thinking about ending our relationship. I think that I‘ve just been too dependent on you, and I feel that at the age of 35 I should start being more independent. I thought about just maybe seeing you once in a while, but I don’t think that would work. Eventually, I’d start relying on you all the time again. I feel the only way to end our relationship is to end it forever.
I’ve always included you in everything I’ve done. But next week, I’m going on a trip, and I’ve decided not to take you along. I feel this would be a good time to break up. I will be gone for a whole week without you and if I can make it on my own for that week, I know I can make it forever.
It is a little sad for me knowing that I won’t be able to rely on you any more, but I think I will be a better person in the end.

Bill McIntosh and Royce Wedding had been the best friends for 30 years. Now, living alone 12 miles east of the town, Bill earned his living by hunting foxes and rabbits.
"Coming to the football match this afternoon?" Bill McIntosh asked 54-year-old Royce Wedding as they drank beer at the Eureka Hotel. Royce shook his head, "I promised Mom I’d burn off the weeds in one of our fields." “I’ll give you a hand," Bill said.
Driving slowly from the southern edge of the field, they worked their way upwind, leaving a line of burning weeds in their wake. Suddenly the fire was on them.

When it crashed back down Royce found himself unable to move. Bill lay where he fell. “Royce!" he cried, struggling to his feet and heading for the car. Pulling open the door, he seized Royce’s arms through the smoke. "I’m stuck," Royce said. “Get yourself away!" The fire bit at Bill’s arms, face and legs, but he said, "I'm not leaving you here.” Now Bill pulled as hard as he could. Suddenly he fell backward. Royce was free and out of the car.
"What's the matter with that dog?" said Vicky Wedding, Royce’s mom. Shocked by noise behind her, she turned to see Bill leaning against the door.

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

We human beings haven’t been good friends to animals. For thousands of years, we have been polluting the environment, making it hard for animals to live on the planet. We have been killing animals for their fur, feathers or meat, or simply because they are dangerous. As a result, many kinds of animals have disappeared forever. Hundreds more are on the endangered list today.
Should we care about animals? Of course we should. If animals of a certain kind all disappear, they will never come back again. Animals are more than just resources of things we need. Every kind of animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying any kind of animal can lead to many problems. For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks(鹰), the corn and grain that the farmers stored were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice. With less and less hawks to keep down their numbers, rats and mice multiplied(繁殖) quickly. And if people kill too many birds, more and more insects will eat the crops.
Luckily, we’ve realized that we shouldn’t kill animals any more. And people are working hard to save those animals that would disappear soon. The government also passed laws to protect the endangered animals. In fact, quite a few countries have passed such laws. These laws forbid the killing of any kind of animal on the endangered list. We should try our best to protect and save the endangered animals.
1.The text calls on us to__________.
A. protect the endangered animals.
B. find out more about the balance of nature.
C. keep animals grow quickly.
D. protect the environment.
2.The example that farmers killed hawks shows that__________.
A. there were too many rats and mice
B. animals are very beautiful and interesting.
C. every kind of animal is important in nature .
D. animals are good food resources
3.What is the author’s attitude towards the future of endangered animals ?
A. Doubtful B. Uncaring C. Optimistic D. Negative
