Some unwelcome visitors from North America have been turning up in the waters off the coast of Great Britain.

North American lobsters (龍蝦) have been found in the North Sea (between Great Britain and Northwest Europe), far from their own habitat. The lobsters usually live along the eastern coast of Canada and the United States.

It is impossible that the lobsters could have made the 5,600-kilometre journey on their own. They were probably brought to Britain and then got away from containers. Some of the lobsters that were caught had elastic bands (松緊帶) holding their legs shut, like lobsters that are kept in containers in stores or restaurants.

Many may have been “set free” from some ships passing through the area. Sometimes passengers order a live lobster from a tank in the dining room and then ask the waiter to throw it overboard instead of cooking it.

According to official records, 26 North American lobsters have been caught in waters off Great Britain since 1988. However, it is believed many more have been found but not reported.

It is against the law to let North American lobsters come into British waters. If they settle down in European waters, it would be bad for the local lobsters. The two live in the same place and eat the same food. But North American lobsters are larger, stronger and more aggressive (好斗的) than European lobsters, and they produce young more quickly.

As a result, they could take food and space away from the local lobsters, and from other types of shellfish that live in the same area. These lobsters may also carry diseases that could harm the local lobsters.

1.Those unwelcome lobsters _____.

A. could travel 5,600 km a day on their own

B. used to live in waters off Great Britain

C. would soon disappear in British waters

D. might have escaped on the way to Britain

2.What can we learn about European lobsters?

A. They are growing too fast to be kept under control.

B. Shellfish often take away their food and space.

C. They are easily harmed by North American lobsters.

D. People become ill easily if they eat these lobsters.

3.The author's purpose of writing the text is most likely to _____.

A. discuss B. report

C. advertise D. introduce

How many times have you seen a "lost dog" poster hanging up on a street corner? John Polimeno was at a coffee shop when he spotted one of those posters. He thought about his own experience looking for a lost pet, with crying children in the backseat, and knew there must be a better way. After seeing several of the coffee shop customers glued to their smartphones, Polimeno had an idea.

It's a smartphone app called Finding Rover, and it uses facial recognition technology to reunite lost dogs with their owners. Polimeno is the founder and CEO of Finding Rover. Launched in the Apple Store in late 2013, followed by Android and Web versions, the app uses software developed by Polimeno and a team at the University of Utah. They studied facial recognition technologies for pets, locating all of their unique facial features.

It works like this: Pet owners upload a picture of their dog. Shelters and other Finding Rover users upload pictures of found dogs. Once a dog is reported found, its picture is scanned through all of the "lost" pictures. A found dog and lost dog are then matched based on the technology, and the worried owner is notified.

Laura Steveson of Chula Vista, Calif., was one of those owners. She describes her 5-year-old Brussels Griffon, Monchichi, as "her everything." They have been through a lot together: divorce, remarriage, moving, and everything in between. When Steveson and her husband traveled to City of Hope Cancer Center for his illness, Monchichi went missing. Steveson says she "fell to pieces" and her husband, near the end of his week-long treatment, started searching for ways to find their pet. He happened upon Finding Rover, and Steveson uploaded a picture of Monchichi. Minutes later, Steveson received an email that her dog was safe and found at the San Diego County Department of Animal Services. She was glad to receive piece of mind so quickly in such a stressful situation.

Currently, Finding Rover only helps find lost dogs, but next month cats will be added to the app.

1.When did John Polimeno get the idea of inventing a new smartphone app?

A. He lost Children many times. B. He saw the dogs street corners.

C. He found posts at a coffee shop. D. He ashed many shop customers.

2.What was the Finding Rover based on?

A. Facial recognition technology. B. Apples Store.

C. Animals’ unique emotion. D. The interest s of dogs’

3.What should pet owners do first if the want to use Finding Rover?

A. They should get in touch with other shelters.

B. They should scan through the lost pictures.

C. They should take a photo of their own dogs.

D. They should upload the pictures of lost dogs.

4.What does the underlined word “notified”in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. stopped B. informed

C. treated D. rescued

Chinese consumers' crazy appetite for luxury goods and services appears unstoppable,with just 2 percent of the Chinese population responsible for one-third of the world's luxury items.

As China's economic miracle develops,the market opportunities for all sorts of luxury goods and services are increasing.Luxury consumption in China now extends ways beyond well-known car,clothing and jewelry brands.For example,the luxury jet market in China is the fastest-growing in the world,even outstripping that of the United States, with a market share of 25 percent.This trend appears to continue,with 20 to 30 percent growth expected in China, compared with only 2 to3 percent in the US.But more importantly,China's luxury jet market growth represents a major development in the private consumption of luxury items.

China's high-quality red wine market also provides evidence of the growth in private consumption of luxury goods.In 2013,China became the largest market for red wine in the world,even overtaking France,with l.86 billion bottles consumed in China last year.Over the past five years,China's red wine consumption has grown 136 percent.

According to my ongoing consumer research in this area while working at the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing,public consumption of such expensive global luxury brands such as Prada and Armani is easily explained by the desire to "gain face" and publicly display social climbing through material possessions.On the other hand,it is "self-reward" that lies behind consumer motivation in this area.Chinese consumers who have experienced rapid financial and economic gains appear particularly prone to the need to reward themselves for their success.But this has little to do with "gaining face" and impressing others and much more to do with the need for personal contentment.

Finally,the growth in private luxury consumption in China is set to continue in part due to the maturity of the Chinese consumer and advancement of Chinese consumer culture generally.

1.What do you think the author would most probably be?

A. A news reporter. B. An accountant.

C. A professor. D. A conductor.

2.The underlined word "outstripping" in Paragraph 2 probably means" ".

A. falling far behind of B. going out of

C. going far ahead of D. keeping pace with

3.What can we learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3?

A. China's luxury jet market growth is only 2% to 3%.

B. France was once the largest market for red wine in the world before 2013.

C. The luxury jet market in the US shares 25%of the jet consumption in the world.

D. China's red wine consumption has increased to 1.86 billion bottles since 2013.

4.What can be the best title for the passage?

A. Future Private Luxury Consumption in China

B. Chinese Appetite for Luxury Goods and Services

C. The Potential Luxury Jet Market in China

D. The Maturity of the Chinese Consumers
