Now scientists believe that global warming affects hibernating animals, causing them to wake up earlier. While this may seem a little concern, it is in fact a serious environmental problem. The shortened hibernation period could actually lead to significant decreases in the population of several species.

Some of the first evidence of the problem came from Colorado, where researchers at the Rocky Mountain Biological Lab have been observing marmot (旱獺) hibernation behavior since the 1970s. In the early days of their studies, marmots generally hibernated several weeks into the month of May. Nowadays, however, temperatures in the area have risen by 2.5 degrees Fahrenheit, and the marmots wake up about a month earlier.

At least the marmots are still hibernating. Several other animals have not been hibernating at all recently. Brown bears in the Spanish Cantabrian Mountains did not hibernate last year. Chipmunks (花鼠) in the US and some snakes in Australia also skipped the hibernation period. The bears seem to have survived without losing many individuals. The chipmunks and snakes, however, were not so lucky. Many of the animals died of starvation during the winter.

The problem with animals waking up early, or skipping hibernation altogether, lies with the creatures' metabolism (新陳代謝). When the animals hibernate, their metabolism drops significantly. The animals' heart rate slows, and they require very little energy to live. When the animals awake in the spring, their metabolism returns to normal.

But while their metabolism may be as active as it was before hibernation, food sources aren't as available as they were before. A marmot may wake up when temperatures get warmer, thinking it's spring, but plants will not have got the amount of sun they need to grow. So until the plants grow, the marmots have no reliable food source.

Many scientists believe the problem will continue to get worse. For many biologists, that's a scary prospect. Terry Root, an animal expert at Stanford University, said, “I do think what we will be facing is the extinction of many species.”

1. What is the viewpoint of the writer?

A. Global warming will continue to get worse as time goes on.

B. Waking up early in spring may lead to the extinction of some animals.

C. Shortened hibernation will definitely decrease the population of animals.

D. Animals which do not hibernate die of starvation.

2.The writer sets the example of the marmot in order to .

A. indicate that global warming influences animals' hibernation

B. explain that the weather gets warmer and warmer now

C. show that the weather in the United States is quite different

D. say some animals do not hibernate now due to warm weather

3.Judging from recent observation, which of the following animals suffered the LEAST from shortened hibernation?

A. Brown bears.

B. Marmots.

C. Some snakes in Australia.

D. Chipmunks in the US.

4.Why can't marmots find enough food when they wake up?

A. Because there are too many marmots in the wild now.

B. Because more and more animal species skip hibernation now.

C. Because winter days end much earlier than before.

D. Because plants haven't received enough sunlight for spring growth.

Someone told me that Li Ming had stolen a pen out my deskmate. I felt I should let my deskmate knew, and before I told my deskmate about it, he asked Li Ming about it. He didn’t admit steal the pen and it caused a terribly argument between them. Later it turned out that the story wasn’t true, and my deskmate refuses to talk to me.

C

Career success could be predicted as early as kindergarten, according to a 20-year study recently published in the American Journal of Public Health．

Researchers from Pennsylvania State University and Duke University tracked more than 700 children from across the US between kindergarten and age 25 and found a significant correlation between their social skills as kindergartners and their success as adults two decades later．

In 1991, teachers assessed how the kindergartners interacted with each other socially using a range of criteria like whether they cooperate with their peers without prompting（激勵(lì)）, if they're helpful to others, whether they're good at understanding feelings, and if they can solve problems on their own．

Researchers then kept track of whether the students went on to graduate high school on time, get a college degree, and find and keep a full-time job by 25．They also monitored the participants' involvement with crime, drug abuse, public assistance, and mental health issues．

The results showed that socially competent children were far more likely to earn a college degree and have a full-time job by 25 than those with limited social skills．Those with limited social skills also had a higher chance of getting arrested, binge（放縱）drinking, and applying for public housing．

“This study shows that helping children develop social and emotional skills is one of the most important things we can do to prepare them for a healthy future," said Kristin Schubert, program director at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, which funded the research, in a release．

“From an early age, these skills can determine whether a child goes to college or prison, and whether they end up employed or addicted．" The good news, according to Damon Jones, lead author of the study, is that intervention（干預(yù)） at a young age can help improve social and emotional skills．

“This research by itself doesn't prove that higher social competence can lead to better outcomes later on," he said．“But when combined with other research, it is clear that helping children develop these skills increases their chances of success in school, work, and life．"

1.What has the 20-year study found?

A．Most kindergartners can solve problems alone．

B．Helpful children understand other's feeling better．

C．Outgoing children cooperate with their peers easily．

D．Social skills play a key role in children's development．

2.Paragraph 3 and 4 are mainly about？

A．when the researchers began their study

B．how long it took to complete the study

C．how the researchers conducted the study

D．what factors were studied by the experts

3.What should parents do to help their children to succeed according to Kristin Schubert?

A．Teach them how to cooperate with others．

B．Teach them some basic living skills．

C．Tell them to keep off alcohol

D．Coach them in their lessons．

4.The text makes very good sense to ____________．

A．teenagers

NOWADAYS, most animated (動畫) films rely heavily on computer technology． But his magical world – where witches (魔法師) cast spells and castles float in the sky – is brought to life by hand． Nevertheless, Hayao Miyazaki is referred to as Japan’s Walt Disney and considered by many to be the world’s greatest living animator．

This month, the 72-year-old Miyazaki announced his retirement． The Japanese animator has directed 11 animated full-length films over the past four decades, including the Oscar-winning Spirited Away (《千與千尋》) and his latest release, The Wind Rises (《起風(fēng)了》), which tells the life story of a man who designed Japanese World War II fighter planes．

Just as The Wind Rises shows, Miyazaki is well-known for his obsession with flight, especially human flight． Other striking aspects of Miyazaki’s films include his themes of environmental protection and the horrors of war．

Miyazaki’s work is also famous for its lack of clearly defined good and evil characters． He sees the 21st century as a complex time when old norms need to be re-examined．

As a storyteller, he is an inventor of fairy tales full of mystery． In the Miyazakian universe, wizards (巫師) turn into birds of prey; young girls are transformed overnight into 90-year-old women; greedy parents are changed into pigs; and shooting stars become fire demons (惡魔)．

As a visual (視覺的) artist, most of Miyazaki’s grace comes from his vivid (鮮明的) colors and lovingly drawn landscapes – a rolling meadow (草地) covered with flowers and shadowed by clouds, or a range of rocky hills rising toward snow-capped mountain peaks

People attribute Miyazaki’s success to his long pursuit of his hand-drawn technique, although in an interview with CNN he called himself an “extinct species” in the age of digital animation．

A recent television documentary on the making of The Wind Rises showed a disappointed Miyazaki throwing a pile of drawings into the trash． He is said to have redrawn thousands of frames of the much-praised Princess Mononoke (《幽靈公主》) when they did not meet his standards．

But his huge attention to detail has earned him the respect of the entire animated film world． Even John Lasseter – head of Pixar, the famous US computer animation studio – once called Miyazaki “one of the greatest filmmakers of our time”．

1.What can we know about Miyazaki’s film The Wind Rises?

A．It was put on a long time ago．

B．Its hero is a soldier．

C．It describes horrors of war．

D．It is an Oscar-winning film．

2.What does the underlined word “obsession” mean in paragraph 3? ?

A．Enthusiasm B．Hate

C．Envy D．Sympathy

3.According to the article,Miyazake’s films _____．

A．a(chǎn)re full of mystery and imaginative characters and landscapes

B．a(chǎn)re likely to use hand-drawn technique and redrawn abstract frames

C．a(chǎn)re full of new norms and clearly defined good and evil characters

D．a(chǎn)re likely to demonstrate environmental protection and anti-war themes

4.What is the main idea of this article ?

A．Miyazake’s impact on Japanese culture

B．the characteristics of Miyazake’s films

C．what inspired Miyazake to create his films

D．what made Miyazake succeed
