Forest guards in western India are using cell phones with ringtones(手机铃声)of cows mooing, goats bleating and roosters crowing to attract leopards (豹)that have wandered into human settlements, officials said on Monday.
The wild cats in the state of Gujarat often get into villages near forests in search of food, say officials, adding that this results in attacks on people. But rather than use methods such as live bait(活诱饵)like goats tied to trees to lure (引诱) the leopards, which then fall into large pits dug by guards, officials say they have found a safer method to trap the cats.
“The moos of a cow, and bleating of a goat from the phone have proved effective to trap leopards,” said D. Vasani, a senior forest official in Gujarat. “This trick works.” Vasani said forest guards have downloaded the sounds of over a dozen animals as ringtones on their mobiles which they attach to speakers and fix behind a cage. They then play the ringtone continuously for up to two hours until the curious leopard appears and moves into the cage looking for its easy meal.
At least five leopards have so far been lured from villages since the new ringtone method was introduced three months ago. The cats have all been released (释放)back into forest areas.
Wildlife activists welcomed the new initiative (新方案) saying that previous methods of trapping the cats using pits often resulted in the animals getting injured.
1.What can be the best title of the passage?
A.Cell Phones to Hunt Animals B.Practical Uses of Cell Phones
C.Wildlife And New Technology D.Phone Ringtones to Catch Leopards
2.Forest guards in India try to catch leopards mainly because _______.
A.leopards attack villagers B.they want leopard fur
C.leopards attack animals D.they have new ringtones
3.According to the wildlife activists, the new method is _______.
A.appreciated because it benefits leopards B.not good because it may injure animals
C.effective because ringtones work D.not safer than the former one
4.We can learn from the passage except that _______.
A.forest guards don’t mean to hurt the leopards
B.forest guards no longer use pits to trap leopards
C.forest guards used goats to attract leopards
D.recorded animal sound are used to lure leopards
5.What will be needed to trap the leopards using the new method?
a. cell phones b. animals c. sounds of animals d. cages e. large pits

Some scientists say that animals in the oceans are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings.
The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a number of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.
Decibels (分贝) measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect.
Some scientists have suggested setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in the oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales(鲸鱼).
A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that louder noises can seriously injure some animals.
The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales' ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected(被感染的).
Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds are against a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.
Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists don’t think that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.
36.According to the passage, which of the following is increasingly dangerous to sea creatures?
A. The sound of cars.
B. The sound of voices.
C. Man-made noise pollution.
D. The sound of steps.
37.According to the passage, natural sounds include all of the following EXCEPT________.
A. sounds made by animals themselves B. ocean drilling
C. underwater earthquakes D. the breaking of ice fields
38.Which of the following is discussed in the third paragraph?
A. The same noise level produces a different effect on land and in the ocean.
B. Different places may have different types of noises.
C. The decibel is not a right unit (单位) for measuring underwater noise.
D. Different ocean animals may have different reactions to noises.
39. Which of the following is true of whales?
A. They won't be confused by noises.
B. They are deaf to noises.
C. Their ability to reproduce will be lowered by high-level noises.
D. Their hearing will be damaged by high-level noises.
40.According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future?
A. They will work hard to reduce ocean noise pollution.
B. They will protect animals from harmful noises.
C. They will try to set a limit of 120 decibels.
D. They will study the effect of ocean noise pollution.
查看习题详情和答案>>A few days ago we – that’s me and the husband – took a cab to the station. Chat with the driver fell to the wrong of cyclists, and the misunderstanding of the road rules. So far as the rules of the road go, there seems to be one basic principle: when you are driving a car you hate bikes, when you are riding a bike you hate cars (and I guess walkers hate everyone).
There is an obvious difference of viewpoint built in here. It wasn’t until I started to drive a car (almost 20years after I had first rode a bike) that I actually realized that you could not see a cyclist at night without lights. In fact I now want to shout at late night cyclists without lights(like motortists once did at me): “You’ll get killed, sunshine, I can’t see you.”
The problem is that cyclists do ride headlong into danger. It's not just not having lights. It’s biking on pavements (and so threatening to injure a load of innocent walkers in the process) and biking down one-way streets the wrong way.
I admit that I do bike the wrong way down a one-way street sometimes. My feeble(软弱无力) defense is that I try always to do it as if I know I was doing wrong. That is slowly, with an apologetic look on the face, and ready to get off at any minute. I can’t bear the guys(一伙人) (usually, but not always it is guys) who do it as if they owned the place, and at high speed.
So cyclists are not entirely innocent. But they are among the disadvantaged groups, because the bottom line is that a car or a lorry can kill a cyclist and not the other way around.
1.When did the writer realize the danger for late night cyclists without lights?
A. Not until she became a driver herself.
B. Not until she had driven a car for 20 years.
C. After she was shouted at by a motorist.
D. After she was once knocked down by a group of guys.
2.When the writer biked the wrong way down a one way street, she felt_________.
A. angry B. guilty C. innocent D. proud
3.Which group is most likely to face danger according to the writer?
A. walkers B. passers-by C. cyclists D. motorists
4.What can we learn about the writer?
A. She often took a cab with her husband.
B. She has been a motorist for over 20 years.
C. She used to ride a bike without lights at night.
D. She often biked the wrong way down a one way street.
