• 1．China's first panda-themed tourist train，known as the "Panda train" left Chengdu Railway Station in Sichuan's provincial capital for Zunyi in neighboring Cuizhou province on Sunday night.The train is decorated with giant panda images，and attendants carry panda toys and passengers can even try panda-shaped food.The "panda train" will start operation on March 28.It will serve on fixed lines and customized lines to connect tourist attractions in Sichuan and neighboring provinces.
     In the future，the train will operate on a number of rail lines linking Chengdu and Chongqing，Chongqing and Guiyang，Shanghai and Kunming in Sichuan，Guzhou provinces and Chongqing municipality.
     Ticket offer：
     The three-day trip costs 1，280 yuan，including food，accommodation and entrance tickets to scenic spots in Guizhou.

• 2．Every year on my birthday，from the time I turned 12，a white gardenia was delivered to my house.No card came with it.Calls to the flower-shop were not helpful at all.After a while I stopped trying to discover the sender's name and just delighted in the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper.
     But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be.Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender.My mother contributed to these imaginings.She'd ask me if there was someone for whom I had done special kindness.Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail I'd delivered during the winter.As a girl of seventeen，though，I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy whom I had met.
     One month before my graduation，my father died of a heart attack.I felt so sad that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation party.
     The day before my father died，my mother and I had gone shopping for a party dress.We'd found an impressive one，but it was the wrong size.When my father died，I forgot about my dress.
     But my mother didn't.The day before the party I found that dress-in the right size-over the living room sofa.I didn't care whether I had a new dress or not.But my mother wanted me to have one.She wanted her children to feel loved and lovable.In truth，my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia-lovely，strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery.My mother died ten days after I was married.I was 22.That was the year the gardenia stopped coming.
  
  （1）Why did the writer stopped trying to know who the sender was？

  
  A．In no way could she find the sender.
  B．The shop didn't answer the phone.
  C．There was no card with the flower.
  D．She was only interested in the flower.
  （2）Who do you think sent gardenia to the writer？

  
  A．Her father.
  B．Her mother.
  C．An old man.
  D．A boy.
  （3）How many times did the writer receive a gardenia on her birthday？

  
  A．12 times.
  B．22 times.
  C．10 times.
  D．9 times.
  （4）Which is probably the best title for this text？

  
  A．A Party Dress.
  B．My Gardenia.

  D．The Death of My Parents.

• 3．Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun，according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.
     While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers，some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children's lives，and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.
     According to the report's key findings， "the proportion （比例） who say they 'hardly ever' read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today."
     The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children，ages 2-8，remain largely the same.But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined，from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.
     When it comes to technology and reading，the report does little to counsel（建議） parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading.It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading，mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.
     The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading.Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently，compared to infrequent readers，have more books in the home，more books purchased for them，parents who read more often，and parents who set aside time for them to read.
     As the end of school approaches，and school vacation reading lists loom（逼近） ahead，parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.
  
  （1）What is the Common Sense Media report probably about？

  
  A．Children's reading habits.
  B．Quality of children's books.
  C．Children's after-class activities.
  D．Parent-child relationships.
  （2）Where can you find the data that best supports "children are reading a lot less for fun"？

  
  A．In paragraph 2.
  B．In paragraph 3.
  C．In paragraph 4.
  D．In paragraph 5.
  （3）Why do many parents limit electronic reading？

  
  A．E-books are of poor quality.
  B．It could be a waste of time.
  C．It may harm children's health.
  D．E-readers are expensive.
  （4）How should parents encourage their children to read more？

  
  A．Act as role models for them.
  B．Ask then to write book reports.
  C．Set up reading groups for them.
  D．Talk with their reading class teachers.

• 4．Thanks to its harsh environment，Antarctica remained largely untouched by humans for many millennia （千年），allowing a thriving ecosystem to evolve.However，since the 1990s，the last true wilderness on the planet is becoming an increasingly popular destination for adventure-seeking tourists.Now，a new study declares that the visitors may be leaving behind harmful bacteria which could devastate all of the area's native bird population.
     Humans can infect animals with illnesses such as the flu.Researchers，however，believed that the Antarctic animals were immune to the danger due to the continent's extreme weather.However，microbiologist Marta Cerda-Cuellar was not convinced.She and some colleagues decided to examine waste samples from Antarctic birds for evidence of human bacteria.To ensure the waste was not polluted，the scientists had to collect it from the birds themselves.
     The results of their study revealed the presence of several types of human bacteria in the bird waste.This included a common strain （品種） of bacteria that causes food poisoning in humans.The researchers say the bacteria strains were resistant to commonly-used human antibiotics，indicating they were brought in by the visitors，rather than migratory birds.
     "These strains，which are a common cause for infections in humans and livestock，do not usually cause death outbreaks in wild animals，" says Gonzalez Solis. "However，the emerging of invasive pathogens （病原體） that arrive to highly sensitive populations could have severe consequences and cause the local collapse and extinction of some populations." The researcher also fears the presence of these bugs could foreshadow （預(yù)示） the arrival of other，more deadly，pathogens as the number of tourists people increases.
     Experts believe the only way to prevent the mass destruction of the birds is to impose stricter regulations or，at least，put the ones already in place into effect.For example，while the Antarctica Treaty requires visitors to carry their waste back home to safeguard the pristine （原始純凈的） environment，the regulation is rarely enforced.Fortunately，nowadays some officials are taking steps to save the vulnerable birds before it's too late.
  
  （1）What problem is Antarctica facing according to Paragraphs 1&2？

  
  A．The increasing number of birds.
  B．The worsening wilderness.
  C．The replaced native bird species.
  D．The spread of infectious illnesses.
  （2）What does the underlined word "devastate" mean？

  
  A．Reject.
  B．Protect.
  C．Destroy.
  D．Benefit.
  （3）What do we know about the waste samples from Antarctic birds the scientist collected？

  
  A．There were several types of human bacteria in them.
  B．Migratory birds brought these strains of bacteria in.
  C．The strains usually cause death outbreaks in wild animals.
  D．The invasive pathogens will become more deadly ones soon.
  （4）What is the author's attitude towards the future of bird population in Antarctica？

  
  A．Indifferent.
  B．Doubtful.
  C．Ambiguous.
  D．Optimistic.

• 5．People use colors to express their feelings and describe their world. （1）

  Let's see if we can figure out where they originated.
     Black sheep of the family
     The phrase refers to a member of a family or a group who is in disgrace （失寵）.It probably comes from the days when，in a group of sheep，the black ones were worth less than the white ones at market because their wool could not be dyed （染色） into different colors. （2）

  
  Green with envy
     When your friend shows up with the hottest new video game in town，you might feel this way. （3）

  It was the Greeks who connected it with sickness.They thought that when a person was ill or envious，his or her body produced too much bile （膽汁），giving his or her skin a greenish color.
     True blue
     Is your best friend "true blue"？No，this doesn't refer to a dye job on his hair. （4）

  Back when all color dyes came from natural sources，such as berries and leaves，blue was the most difficult color to produce and often faded quickly.Finally，during the Middle Ages，an English town became famous for a blue dye that produced a nice，rich blue that didn't fade after just a few washings.This reliable color became known as "true blue".
     Royal purple
     Purple is a fairly popular color.But throughout history，it was reserved for royalty and important members of the church.Purple was once the most expensive dye in the world. （5）

  The resulting purple-colored cloth was costly，and only the richest people could afford to buy it.
  
  A.This made the black sheep an unwelcome member.
  B.Many color-related phrases are a common part of our speech.
  C.A person who was envious would make him look green.
  D.Almost everyone at some time or another has "the blues".
  E.It means that he is honest，faithful，and reliable.
  F.The process of collecting the dye and processing it was long and complex.
  G.Writers such as Shakespeare used the color green to represent envy.
