8．Animals are considered to be endangered if the species is close to extinction throughout all or most of its environment．Animals become endangered for a variety of reasons．
Some animals become endangered when their habitats contain resources for humans．For example，commercial forest cutting in the Amazon Rainforest has seriously reduced the population of many animal species and lead to the extinction of other groups．Land itself is an important resource to humans since it provides us with living space，and when people replace animal habitats with human habitats，it can lead to larger loss of natural species．
Commercial and industrial operations may reduce land or water for animals and pollute their environment．Due to water pollution，the baiji，a fresh water dolphin native to China，was declared extinct，meaning it's unlikely the population can recover．Even noise pollution from human activities can lead to the disorder of animal behavior．
Another cause that makes animals become endangered is over-fishing or over-hunting．Over-hunting whales led to near extinction of many species of whales．
The introduction of a non-native species to a habitat may make animals become endangered．The native species may not defend against a new one，and the effects can be dangerous．In Australia，the introduction of the common house cat led to the extinction of the red-fronted parakeet and has seriously damaged the populations of several small animals．
Introduced species can also bring new diseases with them．As a result，animals become endangered．Native animals may not have the power to fight against non-native diseases，and population levels can suffer．Another cause of disease is human-introduced chemicals．The use of DDT is believed to be one of the leading causes in driving the California Condor to near extinction．
When animals become endangered，the entire food chain can be affected．For example，in 2008 disease seriously harmed the honeybee，which is largely responsible for pollinating（授花粉）  plants，including many fruits and vegetables．Without their pollination，a very large part of the human diet could be reduced．In fact，if the honeybee should become extinct，our life would be affected and billions of dollars would be lost．Therefore，many people argue that when animals become endangered it is in man's own self-interest to protect them．

61．The passage is mainly aboutD．
A．ways of protecting animals'habitats
B．effects caused by species endangerment
C．dangers of bringing in non-native species
D．reasons why animals become endangered
62．Which of the following examples shows that environmental pollution may cause species endangerment？B
A．The extinction of the whales．
B．The extinction of the red-fronted parakeet．
C．The decreasing population of the dolphin．
D．The effect of the honeybee on the human diet．
63．Why is it dangerous to introduce a non-native species to a habitat？A
A．Native species are likely to die from the new diseases．
B．It's hard for non-native species to survive．
C．Non-native species will take up more space．
D．Native species are so powerful for non-native species．
64．The California Condor is in danger of dying out because ofB．
A．loss of habitat                                                       
B．harmful chemicals
C．forest cutting                                                        
D．unfamiliar diseases
65．We can infer from the last paragraph thatD．
A．humans are to blame for species extinction
B．small animals mean little to the whole food chain
C．protection of the honeybee has cost billions of dollars
D．humans protect animals for the benefit of themselves．

4．British men are encouraged to cry．
There are certain things British men like to believe about themselves．The first is that one day they will again win the World Cup．They also believe they do not cry．Over the centuries，Britons are believed to have a"stiff upper lip"．But is this true？
Yes，it is．A recent study arranged by Kleenex on how the British express their emotions reveals that 95 percent of them still containtheir emotions．
Moreover，while 72 percent think this is unhealthy，19 percent can't remember the last time they"let it out"．As a result，Kleenex is launching the"Let It Out"campaign that encourages Brits to grab a tissue and have a good cry．
These days，however，the male Briton's attitude toward crying is changing．Though the majority still struggles to open up emotionally，a 2004 study by Oxford's Social Issues Research Center found that 77 percent of British men considered crying in public increasingly acceptable．Half of London males admitted crying in front of their mothers．Scotsmen are the least emotional，although they are the most likely to cry at weddings．
Peter Marsh，director of the center，said："Crying can now indicate sensitivity rather than weakness．Like with David Beckham，crying because you're dropping off your boy at nursery isn't seen as weak．"
Winston Churchill was said to be a frequent crier，shedding tears at seeing a survivor in an air raid shelter，and when he saw his wife after a long absence．
Psychologists say that while society has accepted that men can cry，there are limits．Ronald Bracey，a consulting psychologist，said："If a man began to cry when he was having stitches（縫針）in hospital，he would be considered as a coward．Men still need to be seen as strong when it comes to physical pain．"
67．What does the passage mainly deal with？D
A．Impression of British men．
B．British men's dream of the World Cup．
C．Advice on how to control emotions．
D．Different attitudes British men have towards crying．
68．Which of the following concerning the British men is NOT true according to the passage？C
A．They are supposed to easily control emotions over the centuries．
B．They are confident that they will again get successful in the World Cup．
C．About 50% of Britons admitted crying before their mothers．
D．Nowadays，the male Briton's attitude toward crying is changing．
69．The word"contain"in paragraph 3 meansB．
A．store         B．hold back          C．include          D．stir up
70．What does the author think of the British men's crying？C
A．They should cry if hurt．
B．They should keep firm not to cry to show they are not wimps．
C．They should be brave in face of physical pain and cry if necessary when facing other problems．
D．They should"let it out"whatever problems they meet with．
