If you were to walk up to Arthur Bonner and say, “ Hey, Butterfly Man,” his face would break into a smile. The title suits him. And he loves it.

Arthur Bonner works with the Palos Verdes blue butterfly(蝴蝶), once thought to have died out. Today the butterfly is coming back — thanks to him. But years ago if you’d told him this was what he’d be doing someday, he would have laughed, “ You’re crazy.” As a boy, he used to be “ a little tough guy on the streets”. At age thirteen, he was caught by police for stealing. At eighteen, he landed in prison for shooting a man..

“ I knew it had hurt my mom,” Bonner said after he got out of prison. “ So I told myself I would not put my mom through that pain again.”

One day he met Professor Mattoni, who was working to rebuild the habitat(棲息地) for an endangered butterfly called El Segundo blue.

“ I saw the sign ‘ Butterfly Habitat’ and asked, ‘ How can you have a habitat when the butterflies can just fly away?’” Bonner recalls. “ Dr. Mattoni laughed and handed me a magnifying glass(放大鏡) , ‘Look at the leaves.’ I could see all these caterpillars(蝴蝶的幼蟲) on the plant. Dr Mattoni explained, ‘ Without the plant, there are no butterflies.’”

Weeks later, Bonner received a call from Dr. Mattoni, who told him there was a butterfly that needed help. That was how he met the Palos Verdes blue. Since then he’s been working for four years to help bring the butterfly back. He grows astragalus, the only plant the butterfly eats. He collects butterflies and brings them into a lab to lay eggs. Then he puts new butterflies into the habitat.

The butterfly’s population, once almost zero, is now up to 900. For their work, Bonner and Dr. Mattoni received lots of awards. But for Bonner, he earned something more: he turned his life around.

For six years now Bonner has kept his promise to stay out of prison. While he’s bringing back the Palos Verdes blue, the butterfly has helped bring him back, too.

41. When he was young, Arthur Bonner _______.

   A. broke the law and ended up in prison         B. was fond of shooting and hurt his mom

   C. often laughed at people on the streets          D. often caught butterflies and took them home

42. Bonner came to know the Palos Verdes blue after he _______.

   A. found the butterfly had died out                 B. won many prizes from his professor

   C. met Dr. Mattoni, a professor of biology             D. collected butterflies and put them into a lab

43. From the last sentence of the text, we learn that raising butterflies has _________.

   A. made Bonner famous                               B. changed Bonner’s life

   C. brought Bonner wealth                            D. enriched Bonner’s knowledge

44. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

   A. A Promise to Mom                                         B. A Man Saved by Butterflies

   C. A Story of Butterflies                                     D. A Job Offered by Dr. Mattoni

It was early morning. Peter Corbett helped Mark Wellman out of his wheelchair and onto the ground. They stood before El Capitan, a huge mass of rock almost three-quarters of a mile high in California’s beautiful Yosemite Valley. It had been Mark’s dream to climb El Capitan for as long as he could remember. But how could a person without the use of his legs hope to try to climb it?
Mark knew he couldn’t finish the climb alone, but his friend Peter, an expert rock climber, would be there to lend a helping hand. He and Mark thought that it would take seven days to reach the top.
Peter climbed about 100 feet up and hammered a piton(巖釘) into the rock. Fastening one end of a 165-foot rope to the piton, he let one end of the rope fall down. Mark caught the rope and fastened it to his belt with a special instrument. This instrument would allow Mark to move upward, but would prevent him from falling even as much as a single inch. He next reached above his head and fastened a T-shaped bar to the rope, using the same kind of instrument.
Mark took a deep breath, pushed the T-bar up almost as far as his arms could reach, and began the first of the 7, 000 pull-ups needed to reach the top. High above, Peter let out a cheer. “You’re on your way.”
Seven years before, at the age of twenty-one, Mark had fallen while mountain climbing, injuring his backbone. The fall cost him the use of his legs, but he never lost his love of adventure or his joyful spirit.
For the first four days the two men progressed steadily upward without incident. But on the fifth day an unbearably hot wind began to blow, and as time went by, it became stronger and stronger, causing Mark to sway(搖擺) violently on his rope. But Mark kept on determinedly pushing up the T-bar and pulling himself up. In spite of that, he had to admit that he felt a lot better when the wind finally died down and his body touched solid rock again.
It took them one day more than they had expected, but on July 26 at 1:45 in the afternoon, the crowd of people waiting on the top went wild with joy as the two heads appeared. Mark Wellman had shown that if you set your heart and mind on a goal, no wall is too high, no dream impossible.
【小題1】What had Mark Wellman long desired to do?

A.To finish one of the most difficult rock climbs in the world.
B.To be the first to climb El Capitan.
C.To climb the highest mountain in California.
D.To help his friend Peter climb El Capitan.
【小題2】How did Mark climb the mountain?
A.He fastened the rope to his wheelchair.
B.He hammered in pitons so that he had something to hold on to.
C.He held on to the T-bar and Peter pulled him up.
D.He pulled himself up using a T-bar and special equipment.
【小題3】 How did Mark lose the use of his legs?
A.He lost his footing and fell from the side of a mountain.
B.He fell during his first attempt on El Capitan.
C.His legs were broken by falling rocks.
D.While working out in the gym, he injured his backbone.
【小題4】What was the worst problem Mark had during the climb?
A.He struck against the rock and hurt his arms.
B.A strong wind blew him away from the rock.
C.He kept falling several inches.
D.While swaying in space, he became terrified.
【小題5】How did Mark react to difficulties during the climb?
A.He admitted that he was frightened.
B.He often worried about his friend’s condition.
C.He was able to remain clam and determined.
D.He was joking to cheer himself up.

B

“There is nothing more rewarding than taking a pack of 40 dogs to the beach for a pack walk,” says Millan.

Cesar Millan, star of the National Geographic Channel’s show Dog whisperer and author of the best—selling book Cesar’s way, has a special gift for working with these animals.

Growing up on a farm in Mexico, Millan knew he wanted to work with dogs. His first job, at age 15, was helping a veterinarian(獸醫(yī)) . He was so good at calming scared dogs and handling all kinds of situations, so people started calling him le perrero, Spanish for “the dog boy.” Since then, he has built a rewarding career around his favorite animal.

“My grandfather taught me at an early age not to work against nature,” he explains. In nature,dogs are pack animals. They form a group and follow one leader. Millan’s specialty is teaching people to be pack leaders for their dogs. Everyone in the family should lead, he says.

He says a lot of people get it backwards because they don’t realize what dogs really need. So the Dog Whisperer doesn’t just train dogs; he trains owners to understand that their pets need rules. At his Dog psychology Center in Los Angeles, California, Millan also works with dogs whose dangerous behavior has prevented them from finding homes. He teaches them to be loving, gentle pets.

Through dog whisperer, viewers can actually see the change in dogs with troublesome behavior. Some dogs go crazy when visitors arrive, for example, while some have more unusual problems.

To find the right career, Millan encourages his kids to do what they enjoy. “A lot of people don’t realize I’ve been working with dogs for more than 20 years ——long before my TV show of book. Success followed me because I was following my dream of being the best dog trainer in the world.”

60. Dog whisperer is        .

A. a best —selling book          B. a TV show

C. a dog psychology center        D. Millan’s nickname

61. Cesar Millan’s being called el perrero suggests that__________.

A. he was a successful veterinarian     B. he was popular with people

62. The key to Millan’s success as a dog trainer is that__________

A. he follows the habits of dogs    B. he walks dogs every day

C.he likes working with dogs      D. he makes rules for dogs

63. What advice does Millan give on his kids’ career?

A. To become the best dog trainer in the world.

B. To choose what they like and stick to it.

C. Not to work against mature.

D. Not to be influenced by others.
