The Amazing Penguin Rescue
The summer of 2016, the ship MV Treasure sunk, creating an oil spill. Thirteen hundred tons of fuel oil were flowing right in the middle of the African Penguins’ habitat. Soon the oil covered about 20,000 penguins. Without swift help, the seabirds would have no chance for survival. Volunteers were showing up by the thousands and I also took part in what was the largest animal rescue operation ever.
A warehouse was turned into a rescue center near the habitat and hundreds of pools were built to hold about 100 oiled birds each. When walking into the center, I couldn’t believe my ears. I had expected to walk into a chorus of honking and squawking(叫声). Instead, the center sounded like a library. The penguins were dead silent. My heart ached for the painful birds. Cleaning them all seemed like an impossible task. But we had to carry on like doctors in an emergency room. There was no time for doubt. Cleaning oil off a penguin wasn’t easy. Even with more than 12,500 volunteers, it took a month to bathe all 20,000 birds at the center.
While volunteers were busy bathing the oiled penguins, another crisis (危机) was developing. Oil from the spill had started moving north. Tens of thousands of penguins were in the oil’s path. But we already had our hands full with 20,000 recovering birds. If any more birds were oiled, we wouldn’t have enough resources to save them.
One researcher came up with an idea: What if the penguins were temporarily moved out of harm’s way? Experts decided to have a try. Volunteers rounded up the penguins and released them 500 miles away. The hope was that by the time the seabirds swam home, the oil would be gone. The plan worked! Another 20,000 penguins were saved.
The entire penguin rescue took about three months. More than 90% of the oiled penguins were successfully returned to the wild. Looking back on the rescue, I am still amazed by the work of the volunteers. What I could hardly believe was that we accomplished an impossible task.
1.The African penguins were in danger because of ________.
A. a knock by a ship B. a spill of oil
C. a change of habitats D. a lack of help
2.When walking into the rescue center, the author felt ________.
A. ambitious B. hopeless
C. shocked D. inspired
3.The crisis was ended by ________.
A. stopping the flow of the oil
B. cleaning the polluted habitat
C. asking more volunteers to help
D. moving the penguins from home
4.The author mainly intends to tell us that ________.
A. many hands make great work
B. where there is a will there is a way
C. the future of wildlife is in our hands
D. unite to make the earth pollution-free

Somali pirates(海盗) robbed three Thai fishing ships with 77 sailors on board nearly l,200 Miles off the Somali coast,the farthest-off-shore attack to date,an officer said Tuesday.
Pirates have gone farther south and east in answer to increased patrols(巡逻)by warships off the Somali shore. The robbing of the three ships Sunday was about 600 miles outside the normal operation area for the international force,said a spokesman.
The spokesman said the attack so far out at sea was a clear sign that the international patrols against pirates were having a “marked effect on pirate activity in the area”.
“Once they start attacking that far out,you’re not even really talking about the Somali basin or areas of water that have any connection with Somalia,” said an officer,Roger Middleton.“Once you’re that far out,it's just the Indian Ocean,and it means you’re looking at trade going from the Gulf to Asia,from Asia to South Africa.”
"This is the farthest robbing to date.They are now operating near the Maldives and India,”said another officer.
The three ships--the MV Prantalay l l,12,and l 4—had 77 members on board in total.All of them are Thai, the spokesman said.Before the Sunday robbing,pirates held l l ships and 228 sailors.
Pirates have increased attacks over the past year in hopes。f catching more dollar payments. Because of increased patrols and defenses on board ships,the success rate(率)has gone down,though the number of successful attacks has stayed the same year over year.
1.The pirate attack reported in the text happened____________.
A.far out in the Indian Ocean
B.in the normal patrol area
C.near the Somali, coast
D.in the south of Africa
2.According to the text, which can best describe the situation of the pirate problems?
A.More goods on board are lost.
B.Pirate attacks happen in a larger area now.
C.The number of attacks has stayed the same these years.
D.Pirate attacks are as serious as before along the Somali coast.
3.Which is true about the warship patrols according to the text?
A.The patrols are of little effect.
B.The patrols are more difficult.
C.More patrols are quite necessary even in Asia.
D.The patrols only drive the pirates to other areas.
4.How many sailors were held by the pirates up to the time of the report?
A.228. B.77. C.383. D.305.
