The anger of PETA has now been turned on KFC, the fried-chicken chain. After two years of failed talks aimed at forcing KFC to introduce more humane(人道的) practices into the raising and killing of chickens, PETA announced last week that it would start a worldwide “Kentucky Fried Cruelty” movement .
PETA wants KFC to kill its chickens using gas rather than cutting their throats, to increase their living space and to provide resting-place for the birds. “KFC has got a lot from chickens but treated them badly, leaving us no choice but to turn up the hest.” said Bruce Friedrich, PETA's director. “McDonald's, Burger King and Wendy's did some-thing under the pressure; KFC would do well to follow their lead.”
The PETA movement intends to catch the attention of anyone who has ever had close dealings with a chicken. “Chickens are intersting animals,” the moverment's press release (新闻稿) begins, “ and are thought to be at least as clever as dogs or cats. ” Mr. Friedrich of PETA insists that social relations among chickens are more developed than those among cats, and are nearly as developed as those among dogs. “When Jesus(耶稣) was looking for a way to express god's love for man, he used the example of a hen's love for her young.” he said.

查看习题详情和答案>>Most young people enjoy some forms of physical activity. It may be walking, cycling, or swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. It may be a game of some forms—football, basketball, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering.
Those who have a passion of climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks in high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure.
Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as others, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of different kinds which would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.
If we compare mountaineering with other more familiar sports we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. We should be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no “ matches” between “teams” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork.
The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities.
A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year by year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty. But it is not unusual for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they perhaps climb with more skills and less waste of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.
What sports are popular among people in winter in the passage?
A. Soccer and golf. B. Skiing and skating.
C. Cycling and hockey. D. Mountaineering.
The underlined word “passion” in Paragraph 2 could best be replaced by ______.
A. strong emotion B. good way
Mountaineering is a sport, not a game because_______.
A. it has man-made rules
B. it is too dangerous for climbers
C. it can’t bring people joy or leisure
D. it is free for climbers to use their own methods
We know from the passage that _______.
A. mountaineering has no appeal for people
B. physical quality is more important than mental one for climbers
C. a mountain climber passes his best by the age of thirty
D. it is possible for an old man of fifty or sixty to climb the Alps
What is the best title for the passage?
A. Sports in winter B. Team work in climbing
C. Mountaineering D. The quality for mountaineering
