9．The largest land animal remaining on the earth，the African elephant is of much importance to African ecosystem．Unlike other animals，the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment．As a giant plant-eater，it significantly shapes the forest-ad-savanna （大草原） surroundings in which it lives，therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat．
It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it both a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat．In its continuous search for the 300pounds of plants it must have every day，it kills small trees and underbushes，as well as pulls branches off big trees．This results in numerous open spaces in not only deep tropical foress but also the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas．In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth，which attract a variety of other plant-eaters．
Take the rain forests for example．In their natural state，the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor．By pulling down trees and eating plants，elephants create open spaces，allowing nw plants to grow on the forest floor．In such situations，the forests become suitable for large-hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small-sized plant-eaters to obtain their food as well．
Scientists are worried now that the African elephant has become an endangered species．If the elephant dies out，scientists say，many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna，greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem．

3．More than three years after moving from Australia to this remote part of England，we are still learning how things are done here．
Not too long after we arrived and unpacked，we were invited for"a drink on Sunday morning"by a retired couple nearby．We got there about noon，to find the living-room crowded-lots of chat and discussions，and in all a very jolly occasion．
Trouble was，there was no food-no self-respecting Australian would regard a tray of crisps as food．In Sydney，when you are invited for a drink any time after midday on a Sunday，you know you will be fed as well as watered and you plan accordingly．However，the hardworking little woman seemed to have no plans to cook lunch or take us to eat out．
By one-fifteen my stomach was sending up"please explain"to me．Even the crisps had gone．There was nothing we could do except wait，and wonder if the hostess was going to perform some magic and feed us fashionably late．Then，as quickly as word had spread that there was free beer at the local pub，the room emptied．By one-forty-five there were only a few guests left，so we decided to go home．The little woman was not really interested in real cooking for us．
A few weeks ago we were invited out for"supper"and the hostess suggested 8：15．Ah，we thought greedily，"this is going to be the real thing．"
We dressed with some care-I putting on a dark suit-and arrived on time．My wife looked pretty good，I thought-a little black dress and so on．But when we walked in I had a terrible feeling we had got the night wrong because the hostess was dressed in a daytime kind of way and the husband was in jeans and an open-neck shirt．But no，we were greeted and shown into the sitting-room．
After a drink I looked around and saw that this was indeed a superior cottage because it had a （more or less） separate dining-room．But there were no signs of a table-setting．Not again!I thought．Were we meant to eat before we came？I decided that in future my wife and I would always carry a chocolate bar．About 9：28our hostess went out of the room，saying something about food．Ten minutes later she returned and asked us to follow．We were led out to the kitchen．There on the table were country style plates and a huge bowl of soup，rough bread and all the makings of a simple meal．And that is what it was．In other words we had not read the signals right when we were invited for"supper"．If they want you to come to dinner，they say so，and you know that means dark suits and so on．If they mean supper，they say it，and you get fed in the kitchen．

10．Santa's gift bag full of air is no longer a joke，as a Canadian company that sells crisp，canned air from the Rocky Mountains has cashed in on China's air pollution．
Just two months after arriving in China，Vitality Air's first 500 canisters were sold out．The next pre-ordered 4，000 canisters are expected to be delivered to the country in two weeks，said Catherine Qi，marketing director of Vitality Air China．Vitality Air said its products are sold primarily to high-end clubs，nightclubs and international schools in China．
The air is harvested from the Rocky Mountains and is available in two varieties-Banff and Lake Louise．The price is 129 yuan （﹩19.95）per canister，Qi told China Daily．"Our products sell not only in China，but also other places including the Middle East and India，"she said．The product originated with a practical joke in which Vitality Air founder Moses Lam put a plastic bag of fresh air on eBay with a price tag of 99 US cents．It sold quickly．The next bag of fresh air was auctioned（拍卖）at﹩168 and also was sold．Then Lam realized the demand for quality，convenient and fresh air by people who have stayed indoors for a long time．Each canister of 7.7 liters will supply 150 doses．The product is available at Taobao，an online marketplace run by Alibaba Group Holding，and at Vitality Air's website，said Qi．
Zhang Naxin，a respiratory physician（呼吸内科医生） in Tianjin，told Daily News that 150 doses of Canadian air won't make much of a difference．"A person breathes 20 times on average per minute，and one bottle would last for less than eight minutes．"
Tina Wang，a manager at a logistics company in China，said she was intrigued by the product．"I've had the flu this week，and the bad air here doesn't help me get better．This bottle of fresh air is just what I need，"said Wang，who added that she thought the price was too high．

7．One of the main creators of the World Wide Web Sir Tim Berners-Lee has warned that the fast growth of the Internet is also creating serious problems．
He especially warns of false information being easily spread around the Internet，"A great danger is that it becomes a place where untruths start to spread more than truths，or it becomes a place which becomes increasingly unfair in some way．"In particular he mentions the phenomena of blogging．Blogging enables friends and contacts to easily spread information However he argues that people may too easily trust information mentioned in a blog．This inaccurate information can then easily become an accepted truth on the Internet．
He suggests that the most important development of the Internet will be in creating ways of allowing people to check the correctness of information by providing original sources．Sir Tim admits that this is an important challenge．It's interesting to note that Wikipedia（维基百科）has had to take steps to prevent false information being added to the biographies of living people．It's easy for anybody to edit the open source．However，some people have pointed out that it has been used to spread false materials．In seeking to raise standards，Wikipedia has sought to stop publishing the false material．
At the same time there is a growing view that the Internet has had a great effect on the way millions of people work．The last two years has seen a big growth in the use of the Internet．There appears no slow-down in the growth of the Internet with increasing access in the developing countries．Sir Tim says another major challenge will be to provide free Internet for everybody．Sir Tim was recently launching a new joint initiative（倡议）between Southampton University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to create the first degree in web science．The two schools hope to raise the standards of web content．

28．What is an especially serious problem that Sir Tim refers to？C
A．The growth of the Internet is too fast．
B．The Internet has a side effect on young children．
C．The false information spreads rapidly on the Internet．
D．The Internet companies compete against each other in an unfair way．

A．The Internet users refuses users to correct it．
B．Wikipedia doesn't take any steps．
C．Anybody can easily edit the biographies．
D．Wikipedia attempts to publish false materials．
30．According to the last paragraph，the purpose of the joint initiative is toB．
A．enlarge the use of the Internet
B．improve the reliability of online content
C．provide free Internet access to the poor countries
D．create the the first degree in science and technology

8．The term"helicopter parents"refers to"a style of parents who are over focused on their children"．
Helicopter parents are always making a big push to provide children with every opportunity to succeed，from baby steps at age 1，homework at age 8，college application at age 18，employment issues at age 25to family problems at age 30，40 or even older．They constantly shadow the child，always directing his behavior，allowing him zero alone time．
Helicopter parenting can develop for a number of reasons．Worries about the economy，the job market，and the world in general can push parents toward taking more control over their child's life in an attempt to protect them．Adults who felt unloved or ignored as children can overcompensate with their own children．When parents see other overinvolved parents，it can cause a similar response．They feel that if they don't involve themselves in their children's lives，they are bad parents．
The main problem with helicopter parenting is that it can backfire．To give an example，the house where Mary lived with roommates was broken into and things were stolen．Mary called the landlord（房东）to install an alarm system，but before she could finish the negotiations（协商），her mother rushed in and demanded action．"I felt like my mother ruined my communication with our landlord．We could have gotten it done ourselves．She was well intended but only made me feel annoyed and defeated，"says Mary．
Obviously，overparenting is motivated with the idea of doing good things but it does the exact opposite．In the long run parents are actually damaging their child's basic skills to deal with matters independently．It makes the child feel lacking in confidence，less competent in dealing with the stresses of life on their own．They're winning the battle，but actually losing the war．

29．What's the purpose of helicopter parents'overparenting？A
A．To do something good for their children．
B．To make their children not ignored．
C．To help their children find a good job．
D．To get rid of the pressure from other parents．
30．What can we learn from the passage？D
A．Children who have helicopter parents live a hard life．
B．Helicopter parenting only happens to very young children．
C．Helicopter parents can protect their children against all problems．
D．Helicopter parents do their children great harm in the long run．
31．What will possibly be discussed in the paragraph that follows？B
A．The bad effects of helicopter parenting．
B．How we can avoid being helicopter parents．
C．Different opinions about helicopter parenting．
D．The reasons for the development of helicopter parents．
32．What is the author's attitude towards"helicopter parenting"？D
A．Uninterested．
B．Objective．
C．Positive．
D．Disapproving．
