Most of them began on October 8, in Northern California. They grew rapidly. The fires were made bigger by winds of up to 50 miles per hour and dry air in the area.At least 20 people have been killed, the state government said. About 200 have been injured. At least 3,500 homes and businesses have been destroyed. About 50,000 people have been required to escape. Many left in a hurry, without time to take their personal things. “All the good stuff(東西)—I’m never going to see it again,” Jeff Okrepkie said. He escaped from his Santa Rosa home. It was destroyed soon after he left.The fires burned through parts of eight counties(郡，縣). These include Sonoma and Napa. The areas are important to California’s economy(經(jīng)濟(jì)). They are home to many of the state’s vineyards(葡萄園) and wineries(釀酒廠). In 2016, California’s wineries made more than $57 billion.October is when wildfires usually produce the most ruins in California. But it is unusual for so many fires to start at once. Up to now, the government has not given a cause for any of the fires, many of which were still burning.4. Why did the fires grow quickly? A. Most of the fires began in October. B. 12 fires happened at the same time. C. The state government didn’t do anything. D. High-speed wind and dry air. 5. How many people have to leave their homes? A. 50,000. B. 200. C. 3,500. D. 20. 6. What is the biggest loss for California’ s economy? A. Homes have been destroyed. B. Wineries have been burned. C. People have to leave their homes. D. Many people have been injured. 7. What is the cause of the fires? A. The high-speed wind and dry air. B. Many fires started at once. C. October produces the most ruins. D. The cause is not explained. CNot only does the use of plastic water bottles hurt your wallet, it also increases pollution and wastes energy and water. Only 23% of all plastic in America ends up in a recycling bin, meaning over $ 1 billion worth of plastic is treated as rubbish a year. Recently, Skipping Rocks Lab has invented a kind of water bottle called Ooho. It is a convenient, clear water bottle that can either be drunken or eaten. To drink it, you can either peel off the membrane(薄膜) or tear a hole in the membrane with your teeth to pour the water into your mouth. To eat it, you simply put the whole bottle in your mouth. One problem the scientists have run into is how to ship large amounts of Ooho bubbles(水泡) without arriving with a very wet truck. However, they have attempted to package units of individual bubbles together inside a larger and thicker membrane. It is targeting large outdoor events, such as marathons, music festivals, and sporting events, where tons of plastic bottles are used, and frequently left behind as litter. And too much plastic is sure to do harm to the environment, which could account for their purpose of such a new invention.The team has been working for the past two years to develop the technology and materials needed to produce Ooho; they have recently applied a patent for their new advancements. The price for an individual bubble or a unit of bubbles has not been set yet, but they cost about two cents to create a unit, which is cheaper than plastic bottles. It has appeared at events in London, San Francisco, Boston, at conferences, festivals, and so on.Ooho is catching many people’s attention and has raised over $ 1 million and gained 1,000 investors in only three days. It is mostly being sold at events at the moment to keep the consumer’s interest while the production machine is getting up and running. It is quickly making a rise, so keep an eye out this year for these bottles of the future.8.How is most plastic dealt with in America?A. It’s sold. B. It’s recycled.C. It’s buried. D. It’s wasted. 9.Why did the team invent Ooho?A. To make a profit for a company. B. To protect the environtnent.C. To make people eat as they drink. D. To reduce the cost of plastic bottle. 10.What can we infer about Ooho from the text?A. It is easy and safe to ship it in large amounts.B. It has become popular since it began to be sold.C. It might be sold at a lower price than plastic bottles.D. It cost the team a lot of money to develop the technology. 11.What does the author really want to say in the last paragraph?A. Ooho is to be a success in the future.B. Ooho is being supported by smart people.C. Ooho is taking the place of plastic bottles now.D. Ooho is being produced to attract more investors. DWith only about 1, 000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone(克隆) the animal and save the endangered species(物種). That’s a move similar to what a Texas A & M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called “Noah’s Ark”.　　Noah’s Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos(胚胎), semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. If certain species should become extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A & M’s College of Veterinary Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.　　It is estimated that as many as 2, 000 species of mammals, birds reptiles will become extinct in over 100 years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.　　This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.　　The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete.　　“The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available(capable of being used) panda eggs could be a major problem,” Kraemer believes. “They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby). It takes a long time and it’s difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort,” adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A& M, the first-ever attempt at cloning a dog.　　“They are trying to do something that’s never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noah’s Ark. We’re both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and there’s a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. It’s a research that is very much needed.”12. The aim of “Noah’s Ark” project is to _______.　　A. make efforts to clone the endangered pandas　　B. save endangered animals from dying out　　C. collect DNA of endangered animals to study　　D. transfer the nuclear of one animal to another 13. According to Professor Kraemer, the major problem in cloning pandas would be the lack of _______.　　A. available panda eggs B. host animals　　C. qualified researchers D. enough money 14. The best title for the passage may be _______.　　A. China’s Success in Pandas Cloning　　B. The First Cloned Panda in the World　　C. Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas　　D. China —the Native Place of Pandas Forever 15. From the passage we know that _______.　　A. Kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a dog　　B. scientists try to implant a panda’s egg into a rabbit　　C. Kraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researches　　D. about two thousand of species will probably die out in a century 第二節(jié)(共10小題；每小題1.5分，滿分15分) 閱讀下面短文，在空白處填入1個(gè)適當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~或括號(hào)內(nèi)單詞的正確形式。Sleep advice for kids of all agesIt is important for each child to get enough sleep every day.

One of his friends had stopped to make a bicycle repair, but they had encouraged Mac to carry on, and they would catch up with him soon. As Mac pedaled (騎行) along alone, he thought fondly of his wife and two young daughters athome. He hoped to show them this beautiful place someday. Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. “Man, that’s a big dog!” he thought. But when he looked to the side, he saw instantly that it wasn’t a dog at all, but a wolf, quickly catching up with him. Mac’s heart jumped. He found out his can of hear spray. With one hand on the bars, he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal, and to Mac’s relief, it fell back, shaking its head. But a minute later, it was by his side again. Then it attacked the back of Mac’s bike, tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and again, it fell back only to quickly restart the chase (追趕). Mac was pedaling hard now. He waved and yelled at passing cars but was careful not to show down. He saw a steep uphill climb before him. He knew that once he hit the hill, he’d be easy caught up and the wolf’s teeth would be tearing into his flesh. At this moment, Paul and Beeky were driving their car on their way to Alaska. They didn’t think much of it when they saw two cyclists repairing their bike on the side of the road. A bit later, they spotted what they, too, assumed was a dog running alongside a man on a bike. As they got closer, they realized that the dog was a wolf. Mac heard a large vehicle behind him. He pulled in front of it as the wolf was catching up fast, just a dozen yards away now.注意：1. 所續(xù)寫(xiě)短文的詞數(shù)應(yīng)為l50左右；2. 至少使用5個(gè)短文中標(biāo)有下劃線的關(guān)鍵詞語(yǔ)；3. 續(xù)寫(xiě)部分分為兩段，每段的開(kāi)頭語(yǔ)已為你寫(xiě)好；4. 續(xù)寫(xiě)完成后，請(qǐng)用下劃線標(biāo)出你所使用的關(guān)鍵詞語(yǔ)。Paragraph 1: The car suddenly stopped in front of him.————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————Paragraph 2: A few minutes later,the other two cyclists arrived.———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
