12．If you meet problems，please turn me．（　　）

11．Lately，Bolivia has outlawed （宣布…为非法） the use of animals in circus （马戏团） performances，and officials in the South American nation aren't doing it in a silly way!They say all Bolivian circuses must stop using animals．
Some people welcome the law．They say animals should not be forced to work and that circus creatures are caged in tight spaces when they travel．However，other people say that many of the four legged performers are cared for by animal experts．Plus，they point out，circus animals entertain millions of fans．
Should animals perform in circuses？Student reporters Michael and Emily have done some work on the issue．
Yes，I think animals should be allowed in circus acts．Most circus trainers love and respect the animals they work with and treat them well．Certain rules and regulations also help to ensure that the animals are treated humanely，or with kindness．Millions of people love circus animals．They look forward to seeing elephants and tigers perform．Many of the animals are exotic （奇特的），so people might not get the chance to see them anywhere else．"Circus animals shouldn't be banned，"says Parker，a sixth grader from Oregon City，"One of the main reasons people go to the circus is to see animals they don't see every day and to see them do cool tricks．"
Animals should not perform in circuses．When animals are in circuses，they are forced to learn new behaviors in order to entertain humans．Those behaviors may go against their natural instincts （本性）．For example，bears hibernate in the winter，but bears in a circus have to perform and can't hibernate as their bodies tell them to．Also，circus animals have to travel all the time in cages．All that traveling may cause them to become confused or upset because their environment keeps changing．"When animals are removed from their habitat and held in cages…it changes their behaviors，"points out Anne Northam，a teacher from Friendswood，Texas．"They are no longer selfsufficient （自给自足的）．"
63．Which of the following can be a reason why people support the law？C
A．Animals in circuses are given more respect and care．
B．Animals in circuses bring a lot of fun for people．
C．Animals in circuses can't live their life naturally．
D．Animals in circuses are protected by many regulations．
64．What's Anne's attitude towards the new law？A
A．She welcomes it．
B．She is against it．
C．She thinks it acceptable．
D．She thinks it useless．
65．Which would be the best title for the text？D
A．Enjoy more fun in circuses
B．More respect and kindness to animals
C．Circuses in Bolivia：Open or Closed
D．Animals belong in circuses：Yes or No
66．The underlined word"hibernate"in the last paragraph probably meansA．
A．sleep
B．look for food
C．move from one place to another

10．If you want to see climate change，head north and keep going until you run out of globe．That is easier said than done．The Arctic （北极） is home to few people and covered in ice much of the year．But those who make their way to the icy seas of the Arctic Ocean will see a part of the planet that is warming and changing faster than anywhere else．
In September，scientists announced at the National Snow and Ice Data （数据） Center that Arctic summer sea ice had fallen to its second lowest level since 1979，and probably long before that．The Arctic has lost an area of ice greater than the area of all U．S．states east of the Mississippi River．And what ice remains appears to be getting thinner and weaker．
Nick Toberg and Till Wagner are polar ice scientists who are doing sea ice fieldwork．"There is plenty of data to suggest that the ice is becoming thinner as well as smaller in area，"they say．
The changes happening in the Arctic are a warning for the entire world．As polar expert Walt
Meier puts it，"What happens in the Arctic doesn't stay in the Arctic．"
Some scientists worry that Arctic sea ice may be going from a downward spiral （螺旋线） to a"death spiral"，one from which there is no escape．As more ice melts （融化），more dark open water appears．The darkness absorbs （吸收） more heat，which speeds up the pace of melting．
Until recently，many scientists thought it might take until the end of the century for the North Pole to become completely ice free during the summer．Now some believe it could happen by 2030or even earlier．"The melting is happening faster in the real world than it has in the models，"says Nick Toberg．
59．The purpose of the first paragraph is to tell readersD．
A．it's difficult to arrive at the Arctic
B．it is too cold for people to live in the Arctic
C．what caused the climate change in the Arctic

60．From the second paragraph we can learn Arctic summer sea iceA．
A．is still decreasing
B．began reducing in 1979
C．fell to its lowest level in September
D．is equal to the Mississippi River
61．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3mean？D
A．The changes don't affect the Arctic at all．
B．The changes will only happen in the Arctic．
C．The changes happening in the Arctic will stop．
D．The changes will also affect other parts of the world．
62．Nick Toberg may agree thatB．
A．the ice in the North Pole will stop melting
B．the ice in the North Pole is melting faster than expected
C．the ice in the North Pole will melt before 2030or even earlier

5．"Dad!He took a book without paying!"I yelled．
My father looked surprised．Before the boy could say anything，his mother grabbed his arm and shook it．"Is it true？You stole？Tell me!"
Everyone was quiet．The boy began to cry，and he nodded his head．He pulled out the comic book （漫画书） from under his shirt．
"Oh，Mr．Kim．I am sorry!My Ted made a big mistake!"Mrs．Diaz told my father．She tried to take the comic book，but Ted wouldn't let go．
"It's OK．He can keep it，"my father said with a smile．

"Three seventy-five．"
Mrs．Diaz's eyes widened，and she dug deeper．I saw her mouth make a small line．"Three seventy-five？"she asked．
"It's OK．You can pay later，"my father said．

I said，"He can work with me to pay for the comic book．"
"Good，"my father said smiling at me．Mrs．Diaz nodded．She turned to her son，"You hear？You will work and buy the comic book!"

As they left，Ted looked back，and though he still seemed sad，he stuck out （伸出） his tongue at me．
