A safari park is a park in which wild animals are kept. They are mainly located in east or central Africa. They often occupy a very wild area, with mountains and rivers. To visit the park and look at the animals, people have to drive around — in a car for a few of hours because the park is huge.

In south Africa there is a safari park, which contains all sorts of wild animals like lions, elephants, rhinoceroses, zebras, wild pigs, deer and giraffes.

There is a wild road leading through the park, but nobody is permitted to walk on the road. Anyone traveling in the park has to go in a car because wild animals may fiercely attack people. From the car he may see almost every type of African wildlife. Some of these are getting scarce (稀有的) because people kill them for various reasons. For example rhinoceroses are killed for their horns, which are used in traditional Chinese medicines for colds and headaches. Perhaps they will be seen only in museums and books one day.

Travelers may purchase food for the animals. They can feed them when they tour the park. Of course, they should not feed them in a close distance because the wild animals may attack people. In addition, they should only give proper food to the animals.

A traveler may carry a gun with him in his journey. The gun is given to him by the government. However, it is not used for hunting. In fact, a seal is fixed to it. The traveler may fire at a wild beast to defend himself in case he is attacked. However, he has to prove the government that he has been attacked and that he has not fired at a harmless animal.

1.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. The gun is given to a traveler by the government.

B. The gun can be used to hunt.

C. The gun is given to a traveler to defend himself.

D. A traveler may fire at a wild beast.

2.Which is the thing people have to do while traveling in the park?

A. Carry a gun with him.

B. Drive around in a car.

Self-employed private physicians who charge a fee for each patient visit are the foundation of medical practice in the United States. Most physicians have a contract relationship with one or more hospitals in the community. They send their patients to this hospital, which usually charges patients according to the number of days they stay and the facilities (operating room, tests, medicines that they use). Some hospitals belong to a city, a state or, in the case of veteran’s hospitals, a federal government agency. Others are operated by religious orders (教會) or other non-profit groups.

Some medical doctors are on salary. Salaried physicians may work as hospital staff members, or residents, who are often still in training. They may teach in medical schools, be hired by corporations to care for their workers or work for the federal government’s Public Health Service.

Physicians are among the best paid professionals in the United States. In the 1980s, it was not uncommon for medical doctors to earn incomes of more than $ 100,000 a year. Specialists, particularly surgeons, might earn several times that amount. Physicians list many reasons why they deserve to be so well rewarded for their work. One reason is the long and expensive preparation required to become a physician in the United States. Most would-be physicians first attend college for four years, which can cost nearly $ 20,000 a year at one of the best private institutions. Prospective physicians then attend medical school for four years. Tuition alone can exceed $ 10,000 a year. By the time they have obtained their medical degrees, many young physicians are deeply in debt. They still face three to five years of residency (實習(xí)階段) in a hospital, the first year as an apprentice physician. The hours are long and the pay is relatively low.

Setting up a medical practice is expensive, too. Sometimes several physicians will decide to establish a group practice, so they can share the expense of maintaining an office and buying equipment. These physicians also take care of each other’s patients in emergencies.

Physicians work long hours and must accept a great deal of responsibility. Many medical procedures, even quite routine ones, involve risk. It is understandable that physicians want to be well rewarded for making decisions which can mean the difference between life and death.

1.According to the passage, it is very unlikely that an American hospital is owned by .

A. a church B. a city

C. a corporation D. a state

2.According to the passage, how long does it take for a would-be physician to become an independent physician in the USA?

A. About twelve years. B. Eight years.

C. Ten years. D. About seven year.

3.Sometimes several physicians set up a group medical practice mainly because .

A. there are so many patients that it is difficult for one physician to take care all of them

B. they can take turns to work long hours

C. no one wants to assume too much responsibility

D. facilities may be too much of a burden for one physician to shoulder

4.which of the following statements could fully express the author’s view towards physicians, payment in the USA?

A. It is reasonable for physicians to have a large income because their work is very dangerous.

B. For their expensive education and their responsibility, they deserve a handsome pay.

C. Physicians should be better paid because they work long hours under bad conditions.

D. Physicians have great responsibility, so it is understandable that they should be well rewarded.

The Simple Technique That Could Save Cyclists' Lives

It's called the Dutch Reach, and if a Massachusetts doctor has his way, it could prevent road riders 1.ever getting doored again.

Last year, some 45,000 bicyclists were injured on the road, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation. And ten percent of those 2.(injury)were the direct result of the rider getting doored: a supremely terrifying, 3.(pain)collision where a driver opens his door immediately in front of a cyclist.

Michael Charney, a 70-year-old 4.(retire) doctor from Cambridge, Massachusetts, is spearheading a grassroots campaign to end dooring forever. The campaign promotes the Dutch Reach—a technique where a driver reaches over with his right hand to open the car door, 5.(force) him to turn his body, look over his shoulder—and 6.(hopeful) see any oncoming cyclists.

The name 7.(inspire)by the bike-friendly Netherlands, where drivers are required in their driving exams to open car doors with their right hands. Charney hopes this potentially life-saving technique will be adopted in the U.S. It’s already picking up some de facto (實際存在的)steam; there’s now a sign at an intersection in Cambridge 8.a cyclist was killed last year by a car door that reads, “Safer to open car door with far hand.”

“It’s simple, it’s obvious, 9.it costs nothing” Charney told The Boston Globe. “People just have to switch from one thoughtless habit to another thoughtless habit –but the 10.(two) one is safer.”
