D

Experts estimate that one out of every five fish sold was caught illegally. It threatens(威脅) food security and hurts the environment. Officials are using new observational technology to fight illegal fishing.

“Thank you for taking the time to join us here in Harwell (UK) in the Operations Center to what we call ‘Project Eyes on the Seas.’” says Tony Long, who leads the Ending Illegal Fishing program for Pew Charitable Trusts. The group created Project Eyes on the Seas. Large three-dimensional images of a globe can be seen on a video.

“It looks different from what you might expect because this globe only shows you the boats that are coming into this system from a live automated information system or AIS.”

The screen shows 120,000 fishing boats have AIS. They are required to have the technology. But those who are fishing illegally often turn it off. The technology does not tell observers when that happens. Project Eyes on the Seas combines satellite information with secret government records on every ship’s past activities.

Mr. Long says that permits researchers to understand exactly where the fishing boats are operating. The Pew team gives the information it gathers to port officials to help them decide if they should take action against a ship. Tony Long says he would like to be able to provide port officials all over the world with clear lists. They would inform the officials about ships to inspect, ships to bar from entrance, and ships to permit entrance for trade activities.

The Pacific island nation of Palau was an early user of the technology. Palau has one of the richest fishing areas in the world. Last year, it announced a plan to ban commercial fishing in a 630,000 square kilometer area. K.B. Sakuma is a special adviser to the president of Palau. He says Palau is trying to deal with a recent increase in illegal, unsupervised（無人監(jiān)管的）and unreported fishing.

“And it’s come to a head in the last year or two. From our southern island in the evening you can see on the horizon just dotted lights of these illegal fishermen that come into our waters, fill their ships with our fish, our resources, our food security...”

1.According to the estimation, what is the percentage of illegal fishing?

A. 1% B. 5% C. 23.5% D.20%

2.The information is collected by the Pew team so as to ________.

A. leave written records for the country only

B. help fishermen to catch more fish on the Seas

C. prevent all of the fishing practices on the Seas

D. assist port officials in deciding whether to ban a ship from fishing

3.What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 5 refer to?

A. The clear lists.

B. The investigators.

C. The fishing boats.

D. The Project Eyes.

4.Which of the following statements is closest in the meaning to the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?

A. The issue is urgent.

B. The problem begins to appear.

C. The number of fishermen is increasing.

D. The head of the fishermen is coming.

5.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. When the fishermen turn off the AIS, the inspector will know the situation.

B. The special adviser to the president of Palau leads the Ending Illegal Fishing

program.

C. The new technology contributes to solving the problem of illegal fishing.

D. Commercial fishing is permitted in Palau.

Aristotle once wrote that “happiness is a state of activity”. In other words, whether you are Seeking life-long satisfaction or a few moments of good cheer, you’ve got to move forward. We’ve interviewed the experts and found five steps to take toward a sunny mood（心情）：

Over a 30-year period, University of Illinois researchers asked nearly 120,000 people how income, education, political participation, volunteer activities and close relationships affected their happiness. Reported Newsweek’s Sharon Begley on the findings, “The highest levels of happiness are found with the most stable and satisfying relationships.”

Singing aloud, talking to a stranger, raising your hand: all may increase a feeling of happiness, according to a study from Wake Forest University. Participants（參與者）followed the development of their moods for two weeks and reported feeling happier when they were more outgoing and less happy when reserved or withdrawn.

The editors of forbes.com gave $5 or $20 to 46 strangers by chance. Half the group was told to spend the money on themselves, while the other half was told to spend it on others. Those who’d shared the wealth felt much happier at the end of the day than those who’d spent it on themselves. There was no difference in happiness between those who spent $5 or $20, suggesting that it’s not how much money you spend, but how you spend it, that inspires the spirit.

Studies from the Positive Psychology Center showed that discouraged people who wrote down three good things that happened to them each day for six months reported an improved attitude.

Drinking water really can help keep you cheerful. A small 2012 study from the University of Connecticut suggested that even slight dehydration（脫水） affected the moods of its female participants.

Elizabeth Mitchell’s new “Liberty’s Torch” is the fascinating story of how the Statue of Liberty came to be. The Statue of Liberty’s rough history is explored in “Liberty’s Torch”.

Frederic Auguste Bartholdi is an all-but-forgotten figure in American history. He was, however, responsible for one of the most enduring symbols of the United States: the Statue of Liberty. A Frenchman from Alsace, he designed and built the Statue of Liberty which stood on Bedloe’s Island in New York Harbor. How this statue came to be is the fascinating subject of Elizabeth Michell’s new book “Liberty’s Torch”.

The power of Mitchell’s narrative is convincing(令人信服的). We recognize the Statue of Liberty now as a symbol of hope and opportunity for a nation of immigrants. At the time, though, people could not see that－nor did they even imagine that. Instead, the construction of the statue was born of one man’s desire to set up a great monument.

For this reason, perhaps, “Liberty’s Torch” relies on Bartholdi as the connecting thread. Bartholdi went to Egypt to make photographic copies of the main monuments. On the boat, Bartholdi met and began a lifelong relationship with Ferdinand de Lesseps, the man who would build the Suez Canal. Maybe it was this friendship, or maybe it was seeing Egypt’s huge monuments, but finally the trip inspired Bartholdi’s dream to create the largest statue ever built. Failure to bring this to completion in Egypt, followed by his exile (流放) from Paris, led Bartholdi to sail to America.

By explaining the Statue of Liberty’s hard history and showing Bartholdi’s brave spirit, Mitchell has done a great service.

1. It can be inferred from the text that ________.

A. American people have never forgotten Frederic August Bartholdi

B. the Statue of Liberty wasn’t originally regarded as a symbol of hope

C. Bartholdi finished the Suez Canal

D. Bartholdi was a famous architect from Egypt.

2.What was the main reason for Bartholdi to build the Statue of Liberty?

A. To finish his education in the arts.

B. To mark his friendship with Ferdinand.

C. To create something better than Egyptian monuments.

D. To achieve his dream to create the largest statue.

3.What type of writing is the passage?

A. A travel guide. B. A book review

C. An announcement D. An architecture report.

Chinese media and Internet users on Monday condemned（譴責(zé)） lack of morals in society after a toddler（學(xué)步的幼兒） was struck twice –by two different vans-and left bleeding on the road as more than a dozen bystanders did nothing to help the seriously injured girl．

The incident, captured by a surveillance camera and broadcast by Southern Television Guangdong （TVS），showed the two-year-old girl was knocked down and run over by a white van on a narrow market street on the afternoon of Oct.13, in Foshan City of Guangdong Province．

The driver fled the scene of the accident，leaving the girl to bleed on the sidewalk．Over the next six minutes，more than a dozen people walked by the girl，yet not one individual did anything to help her．The girl was then hit a second time by another van before an elderly trash collector came to her aid and brought the attention of the girl’s mother, according to the video and eyewitnesses．

Doctors said that the girl, who was put on life support after being hospitalized，remains in a deep coma．The girl’s parents，who are migrants living in the city，are now with her．

Police said the drivers of both vehicles have been arrested．However，the apathy of the bystanders shown in the video has shocked the public，as Internet forums have seethed with anger， and people are questioning the morality of society．

High moral standards were once triumphed as national pride in China where individuals known for selflessly helping others were adored by the public．

But in recent years，the perception（觀念）of a decline of morals has become a hot topic as profit and materialism are perceived to be affecting society’s values．

On Sept.2 an 88-year-old man in central China collapsed，his face striking the pavement．Yet，no one came to his aid, and he ended up choking to death on the blood from his nose．

Some have linked the absence of good Samaritans （模范人物）to a previous case in which a man trying to help an elderly woman who fell was accused of harming her．

A strong chorus of opinion on the Internet says laws should exempt（免除）Samaritans from liability（責(zé)任）, yet laws themselves cannot solve society’s morality dilemma．

Cao Lin, a China Youth Daily commentator，said in a signed article published on Monday that the worry of liability should not be an excuse for not helping, and this case exposes the decline of humanity in Chinese society．

1.According to the passage，what would happen if someone helped others selflessly in the past?

A．He/ she would be condemned by the public．

B．He/ she would be awarded by the government．

C．He/ she would have to worry about liability．

D．The public would feel proud of him/ her and thus showed love and respect for him/ her

2.Which of the following is TRUE about this passage?

A．Nobody helped the girl who was struck twice by two different vans．

B．The toddler died immediately after she was hit a second time．

C．High moral standards were once regarded as national pride in China．

D．Journalists from TVS captured the incident by using a camera．

3.In recent years，society’s values is believed to be affected by ．

A．profit and materialism

B．people’s perceptions

C．the apathy of bystanders

D．the morals of society

4.According to Cao Lin，what is the fundamental reason for not helping the girl?

A．The worry of liability．

B．Lack of laws that exempt Samaritans from liability．

C．The decline of humanity in society．

D．The fear of being accused of harming her．

5.Where is the article most probably taken from?

A．A fashion magazine．

B．A news report．

C．A science fiction．

D．An education column．
