Famous people have a lot of influence on cultural trends, like it or not. When Amal Clooney wears a Stella McCarney dress, sales go way up. However, one trend that seems harmless—but is actually damaging—is the pressure on stars to have their photos taken with rare animals.
Famous people who are asked to have photos taken with wild animals for a magazine spread or who do so while on vacation always have good intentions and even love animals. This makes them easy targets for the often greedy amusement parks and fake animal centers. These businesspeople love the thought of sharing pictures of a star hugging a baby tiger or a whale. Kind people are naturally drawn to places that claim to offer rare animals safety and are eager to see elephants paint, to hug baby bear or to swim with dolphins. However, it has shown that many of these businessmen are breeders, dealers or exhibitors that are using Hollywood’s goodwill for their own ends.
At the recently closed Tiger Temple in Thailand, 40 dead tiger cubs(幼崽) were found in a freezer, secretly killed to make tiger wine and other folk medicine for sale on the black market. But it isn’t just the “tiger temples” that are being closed down. The number of tourist traps using word like “rescue” in their names has increased greatly in recent years.
Many businessmen continually breed the animals just so they’ll have a constant supply of young animals in order to charge money for photos to people. Of course the babies are cute but they grow fast, and within a few weeks they are too big to handle. They’ll spend the rest of their lives, sometimes decades, in small and empty cages — or even be killed.
In some Asian countries, elephants are kept in camps. A few camps are working to help elephants in trouble, but the vast majority are not, and training methods are cruel. As soon as the cameras are gone after someone like Prince William takes 0a photo with an elephant, the chains go back on.
Fans, tell the stars: Stay away from rare animal photos, and the animals will be grateful. Of course, you don’t have to be famous to make a difference. Whether right here at home or at a place abroad, every one of us must fight the temptation to take a photo with an elephant or hug a baby tiger.
1.The author intends to make an appeal that ________.
A. all people including stars should refuse to take photos with rare animals
B. measures should be taken to protect the rare animals
C. bans should be issued to limit celebrities’ behavior
D. warns of wild animals should be given to the public
2.It can be inferred that ________.
A. tiger wine and folk medicine made from tiger babies are sold in the supermarket
B. most of the elephants in Asia are treated well in camps
C. people are attracted to amusement parks and fake animal centers where celebrities share photos
D. when the baby animals that take photos with tourists grow up, they will be set free
3.Businessmen use the following tricks to make profits EXCEPT ________.
A. in the name of rescuing rare animals
B. take advantage of famous people to take photos with animals
C. claim to offer rare animals safety
D. protection of rare animals
4.Which of the following do you think is the best title?
A. Tell stars to stop!
B. Be careful when sharing photos on media!
C. No sale, no killing!
D. Rescue the endangered animals!

It seems that there is no middle ground when it comes to cats. People either love them or hate them. These feelings are not new either. All through history, cats have been worshiped or hated. A study of ancient writings and evidence found in tombs indicates that for the past 5,000 years, cats have been kept as pets in China, Arabia, Egypt, and India. However, this isn’t very long compared to dogs, which have been domesticated for 50,000 years. Still, while the period in which cats have been domesticated may be quite short, it has definitely had its high and low points.
Cats were at their highest position of domesticated life in ancient Egypt. There were more cats living in Egypt during the time of the pharaohs than in any other place in the world since that time. This high number of cats was probably due to the laws protecting them. Cats were associated with the moon goddess, Bast, so the Egyptians worshiped them as holy animals. If anyone was caught killing a cat, the person could be put to death. Families in Egypt also mourned the death of a cat and had the body of the dead cat wrapped in cloth before it was finally laid to rest. This respect for cats carried over to the Roman Empire where cats were the only animals allowed into temples. This fact was probably due to the ability of cats to keep the temples free of mice and rats. With the coming of the Dark Ages in Europe, the place of cats in society took a turn for the Empire, Christians began to associate cats with pegan (异教徒) beliefs. Cats had a reputation as helpers of witches. When a person was accused of being a witch, a cat would often be put on trial with the person. The cat would be tortured(拷打) to try and make the person tell the truth, and usually the cat and the person would end up being burned in a bonfire or drowned. Bonfires of collected cats were not uncommon during this time.
The days of hunting witches have ended, but other myths about cats still hold out. For a while, people in some places used to bury live cats under new buildings for good luck. As well, many people today continue to believe that black cats bring bad luck. If a black cat walks in front of a person, that person must take extra care in the near future to watch out for dangerous situations. Regardless of superstition(迷信), cats remain a popular pet today. Some cat experts believe that a cat never truly be domesticated because it may turn wild and run away at any time. However, this claim has not put people off keeping cats in their homes. A third of homes in the United States have cats, and one out of every three of these homes keeps both a dog and a cat. Especially in large cities, many people in small apartments have found that cats make much better pets than dogs.
Cats may not be worshiped as gods any more, but there are people who seem to think of their cat as their children. These cat owners will do almost anything to keep their pets healthy and happy. For those cat owners who have always wondered what their pets are trying to tell them, a Japanese company may have come up with the perfect invention. In 2003, the Takara Company announced the Meowlingual, a cat translation device. The Meowlingual uses a microphone, display, and cat voice analyzer to analyze a cat’s meows to determine which of 200 phrases a cat is trying to say.
According to a company spokesperson, “… cat owners all over the world have been telling Takara, ‘ We want a cat translator!’” Now, the company “is making their dream come true by bringing in a new era of communication between cat lovers and their pets.”
1.Which of these is NOT discussed in the passage?
A.the status of cats throughout history
B.the evolution of different species of cats
C.the popularity of the cats today
D.communication between cats and their owners
2.The second paragraph mainly describes_______.
A.how Bast became a goddess.
B.the low point in the history of cats
C.the high point in the history of cats
D.the reason why cats are such good hunters
3.How were cats treated in Europe during the Dark Ages?
A.as farm animals B.as food C.as magical creatures D.as honored guests
4.According to the passage, what percentage of people in the United States keep both a cat and a dog?
A.about 10 percent B.nearly 25 percent C.about 33 percent D.close to 50 percent
高三英语阅读理解中等难度题查看答案及解析
When a friend does something less-than-kind like breaking something precious, embarrassing or excluding kids, it’s understandable that children feel hurt, betrayed, angry or bitter. Some may get even with the friend by doing something worse, which, however, only worsens conflicts. Children may feel caught in the tension between wanting to keep the friend and feeling unable to let go of bitterness about a serious offense.
Reine C. van der Wai and colleagues define forgiveness as the process of controlling the automatic negative thoughts and feelings that spring up when someone upsets us and instead treating that person with kindness. They argue that forgiveness is an essential skill for maintaining long-term friendships.
Parents can play a dominant role in teaching children about forgiveness. Children watch how adults in their lives respond when someone does something unkind. Do they let it go or complain to others or speak directly to the person involved? How long does it take them to get over being mad and how? Sometimes parents instruct children directly about how to react to friends’ mistakes, promoting responses ranging from “Don’t let him walk all over you and fight back!” to “He didn’t mean it.” or “Everyone makes mistakes, depending on the situation and the family values.”
There’s a delicate balance that children need to strike when it comes to forgiveness. On the one hand, passively tolerating and excusing on-going mean behavior definitely isn't healthy. Research shows that long term, repeatedly forgiving people who don’t mend their ways eats away at self-respect. On the other hand, kids need to understand that no one is perfect, so generously and sympathetically forgiving a well-meaning friend is a caring thing to do.
Here are some guidelines that might help your child figure out when it’s time to let it go and forgive someone. If it only happened one time, and it probably won’t happen again, let it go. If your friend didn’t do it on purpose, let it go. If it wasn’t that bad, let it go. If your friend is really sorry, let it go. If it was just a mistake and the friend is usually kind, let it go. If it happened more than a month ago, definitely let it go.
Holding onto hatred is emotionally costly. Sometimes, forgiveness is the right thing to do, not because the other person deserves it, but because we deserve not to be weighed down with bitterness.
1.When a friend does something unfriendly, what is NOT the possible response of the children according to Paragraph 1?
A.They are in a dilemma.
B.They intensify the contradiction.
C.They are upset, disappointed or annoyed.
D.They consider the offence understandable.
2.Children are educated about forgiveness in a family by _______.
A.taking the family values into account
B.speaking directly to the related person
C.observing parents’ reactions to a person doing something unpleasant
D.following the instructions like ignoring a friend or forgiving the mistakes
3.Which of the following is NOT right according to the passage?
A.If your friend didn’t do it deliberately, let it go.
B.Pursuing perfectionism contributes to forgiving a well-intentioned person.
C.Continuously forgiving people who fail to reform will lead to lack of confidence.
D.On some occasions, forgiving the other person is psychologically beneficial for us.
4.What is the attitude of Reine C. van der Wai and colleagues towards forgiveness?
A.Favorable. B.Neutral.
C.Pessimistic. D.Critical.
