6.Four Wild Animal Species Were EndangeredMaybe you can still see them at the zoo.But that doesn't mean they're doing alright in the wild.
Tigers
All six tiger species are endangered,with Suatran tigers and South China tigers at a seriously endangered status.The main reasons for their population decline are illegal hunting and destroyed habitats,as humans clear forests to gather timber and build roadways.Only about 3890 tigers presently live in the wild.
Ground squirrels
That's right,even squirrels are endangered,specifically the San Joaquin ground squirrel.Native to California,USA,these guys have been disappearing since 1979 on account of the construction and human developments going through their habitat.Their total population is unknown,but it could be anywhere between 124000 and 4130000.
Giraffes
The International Union for the Conservation of Nature recently put giraffes at a vulnerable status,the level just before endangered.Th e giraffe population has declined 40 percent in the last 30 years,primarily due to loss of habitat and illegal hunting.Some giraffes are killed just for their tails,which are considered status symbols in Africa.
Asian elephants
The main threat to Asian elephants,one of the most intelligent animals,is their shrinking habitat.As the human population grows,people invade their land to build roads and railway tracks.Elephants in Myanmar are at an especially high risk for being captured and traded or used illegally in the tourist industry.Fewer than 50000 are left on the entire continent.

21.What is the total population of tigers living in the wild?A
A.Around 3890.
B.50000.
C.124000.
D.413000.
22.Which of the following is considered one of the most intelligent animals?D
A.Tigers.
B.Giraffes.
C.Ground squirrels.
D.Asian elephants.
23.What is the common threat to the four wild animals?B
A.Illegal hunting.
B.Disturbed habitat.
C.Developing tourism.
D.Unnecessary construction.
24.Which word can best describe the present situation for protecting wild animals?C
A.Satisfactory     
B.Optimistic.
C.Urgent.
D.Stable.

23.B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)Tigers中的句子The main reasons for their population decline are illegal hunting and destroyed habitats,他們的人口下降的主要原因是非法狩獵和棲息地遭到破壞; human developments going through their habitat人類(lèi)的發(fā)展通過(guò)了它們的棲息地;one of the most intelligent animals is their shrinking habitat.亞洲象是最聰明的動(dòng)物之一,主要的威脅是它們?nèi)諠u萎縮的棲息地;可見(jiàn)對(duì)于這些動(dòng)物的威脅主要是棲息地的破壞,所以答案選B.
24.C 推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章題目Four Wild Animal Species Were Endangered四種野生動(dòng)物瀕臨滅絕,和文章內(nèi)容可以推斷出保護(hù)野生動(dòng)物是緊急的,Urgent"緊急的,緊迫的",所以答案選C.

17.Seek Out a Unique BeachVISIT
Oregon.For sun and fun away from the crowded beaches of Florida,check out the Oregon coast and its 363miles of gorgeous shoreline,stretching from the Columbia River south to the redwood forests of California.Every beach is public and free."The coast is a perfect place to watch sea lions sun themselves or simply see the mighty Pacific waves crash in the sunset followed by a seafood feast in one of the busy fishing communities located between the coves (小海灣),"says Bramblett.July and August aren't peak gray whale migration season,but there's still a good chance you could catch a glimpse of some of the 200 whales that spend the summers off the Oregon coast.
SLEEP
Next to a lighthouse.Imagine yourself an ancient mariner when you book a room overlooking the Pacific Ocean at the Heceta Head Lighthouse Bed and Breakfast in Yachats,Oregon.The working lighthouse,which dated to 1894,cast a bright beam 21 miles out to sea,making it the brightest light on the Oregon coast.The cliff-top rooms at the Light Keeper's home nearby aren't cheap-you'll shell out up to 385 foraweekendnightduringpeakseason(priceincludesaseven-coursebreakfast).
BEWARE
Dangerous currents.Unless you love cold water (or wear a wet suit),you may not want to venture into the sea off the Oregon coast,even during the summer.But if you do,be prepared for tip currents.To get out of a dangerous current,don't panic,warns Tom Grill,a spokesman for the U.S.Lifesaving Association.Swim parallel to the beach until you're no longer being pulled out to sea,then swim diagonally (成對(duì)角線(xiàn)地) toward the shore.
BRING
Baby powder.Use a generous amount of baby powder to remove sand from your hands,feet or hair.The powder quickly absorbs moisture,allowing sand to fall off easily.

14.Whether you love happy endings or a dark reality in TV dramas,you could soon be able to decide what you get.Netflix,the TV-streaming company behind hit shows such as The Crown and House Of Cards,is working on ways to give viewers control of key plot decisions.
Some of the storylines will be simple and linear,like the Choose Your Own Adventure books that many grew up with.For example,viewers might decide whether a prisoner in the drama Orange Is The New Black joins a gang (黑幫) or not.
The technology could also potentially be used to allow Princess Margaret to marry Peter Townsend in The Crown,instead of having her relationship with the divorcee (離婚者) blocked by the Establishment.Other storylines will be much more complex,allowing viewers to connect plot points in a variety of ways using their TV remotes.
A source said,"We're doing work on branch narratives (敘事) so you are actually making choices as you watch.All the content will be there,and then people will have to get through it in different ways.We'll see how it plays out.It's an experiment.We'll see if it gets much success.For creators,it's a new field."
Actors would film numerous alternate plot segments (片段) in advance,letting viewers choose which route to take through the story.Netflix will run a trial with choose-your-own-adventure shows for children later this year,based on an established character.If they are successful,it will use the format for TV programmes aimed at adults.Netflix president Reed Hastings confirmed that the company is working on interactive shows,saying,"Once you have got interactivity,you can try anything."
At least five million UK households are thought to be signed up to Netflix,and it is challenging traditional broadcasters.Earlier this year,BBC boss Lord Hall promised to reinvent the iPlayer so that it overtakes Netflix as a destination in its own right,rather than a catch-up service.

32.How will viewers connect plot points?A
A.By using their TV remotes.
B.By taking part in TV programs.
C.By interacting with actors or actresses.
D.By participating in filming plot segments.
33.Why will Netflix run choose-your-own-adventure shows for children?D
A.To attempt to create another hit show.
B.To compete with traditional broadcasters.
C.To attract as many children viewers as possible.
D.To test whether their creative ideas are successful.
34.What's Reed Hastings'attitude to interactive shows?A
A.Confident.
B.Doubtful.
C.Negative.
D.Worried.
35.What's the author's purpose of writing this text?D
A.To advertise for Netflix company.
B.To recommend some English hit shows.
C.To predict future development in filming.
D.To introduce the latest technology in TV dramas.

18.Imagine that you're looking at your company-issued smartphone and you notice an e-mail from Linkedln:"These companies are looking for candidate like you!"You aren't necessarily searching for a job,but you're always open to opportunities,so out of curiosity,you click on the link.A few minutes later your boss appears at your desk."We've noticed that you're spending more time on Linkedln lately,so I wanted to talk with you about your career and whether you're happy here,"she says.Uh-oh.
It's an awkward scene.Attrition(損耗) has always been expensive for companies,but in many industries the cost of losing good workers is rising,owing to tight labor markets.Thus companies are making greater efforts to predict which workers are at high risk of leaving so that managers can try to stop them.Methods range from electronic monitor to sophisticated analyses of employees'social media lives.
Some of this work may be a reason to let employees to quit.In general,people leave their jobs because they don't like their boss,don't see opportunities for promotion or growth,or are offered a higher pay; these reasons have held steady for years.
New research conducted by CEB,a Washington-based technology company,looks not just at why workers quit but also at when."We've learned that what really affects people is their sense of how they're doing compared with other people in their peer group,or with where they thought they would be at a certain point in life,says Brian Kropp,who heads CEB's HR practice."We've learned to focus on moments that allow people to make these comparisons."
Technology also provides clues about which star employees might be eyeing the exit.Companies can tell whether employees using work computers or phones are spending time on (or even just opening e-mails from) career websites,and research shows that more firms are paying attention to these things.Large companies have also begun tracking badge swipes(瀏覽痕跡)----employees'use of an ID to enter and exit the building or the parking garage---to identify patterns that suggest a worker may be interviewing for a job.

25.From the first paragraph,we can infer Linkedln isC.
A.a(chǎn)n e-mail
B.a(chǎn) job from the Internet
C.a(chǎn) professional social network
D.a(chǎn) world-famous company
26.What's the main idea of the second paragraph?C
A.The cost of losing good workers is rising
B.Companies are stricter with workers than before
C.Measures have been taken to find the potential workers who want to quit
D.Finding new jobs has been a trend for most workers
27.According to the research by CEB,which of the following might be the most probable reason for workers to quit their jobs?B
A.They don't like their bosses
B.Workers are always doing comparisons
C.Not seeing opportunities for promotion
D.To find a higher-paid job.

15.What do the world's most successful people all have in common?
By examining the work habits of over 150greatest writers and artists and scientists,the researchers including Standford Professor Jeffrey Pfeffer found that high achievers like Robert Moses turn out to be all alike:
Busy!Busy!
(16)DIn a study of general managers in industry,John Kotter reported that many of them worked 60to 65hours per week-which translates into at least six 10-hour days.The ability and willingness to work difficult and tiring hours has characterized many powerful figures.Energy and strength provide many advantages to those seeking to build power.
Just Say No!
The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say"no"to almost everything.And that's what gives them the time to accomplish so much.(17)BAnd focus means saying"no"to a lot of distractions(分神).
Know What You Are!
Ignore your weakness and keep improving your strengths.Don't waste time exploring skill areas where you have little competence.Instead,focus on-and build on-your strengths.(18)F.
Create Good Luck!
Luck is not magical-there is a science to it.Richard Wiseman studied lucky people for his book Luck Factor,and broke down what they do right.(19)GBy being more outgoing,open to new ideas,following the feeling that something is true,being optimistic,lucky people create possibilities.
Does applying these principles to your life actually work Wiseman created a"luck school"to test the ideas-and it was a success.In total,80percent of people who attended Luck School said that their luck had increased.(20)C.
A.Spend enough time to improve your weakness.
B.Achievement requires focus.
C.On average,these people reported that their luck had increased by more than 40percent.
D.They never stop working and they never lose a minute.
E.Busy people are more likely to be lucky.
F.This means knowing who you are,what you are and what you are good at.
G.Certain personality types are luckier because they behave in a way that offer the chance for good opportunities.
