According to an unrelated news story, parents in a Beijing suburb are getting up at 5 am each day and standing in line for shuttle buses. The early birds have developed this habit not for themselves, but for their grown-up children, who work in downtown Beijing. The youngsters have to spend four or five hours each day commuting and their parents chip in插嘴by waiting in line for them so they can squeeze an extra half hour of sleep.

However, children in the US will leave their parents when they grow up. They want to find better jobs, so they usually live far away from their parents. They often write to their parents or call them. And they go to visit their parents during their holidays.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。 The National DarkSky Week (NDSW) is a week during which people all over the United States turn off their lights to enjoy the beauty of the night sky without light pollution. This event was started by Jennifer Barlow of Midlothian, Virginia in 2003, and it is becoming more popular each year. It has been supported by the International DarkSky Association, the American Astronomical Society, and the Astronomical League.
This event always occurs in April, during the week of the new moon so that the sky can be as dark as possible for the best viewing conditions.
“It is my wish that people could see the night sky without other light in the sky as our ancestors saw it hundreds of years ago,” explains Barlow.
Since it only lasts a week and not everyone in the country will take part in it, how will the National DarkSky Week reduce light pollution? The main goal of NDSW is to increase awareness of the harmful effects of light pollution. It is not possible for all of the light pollution in this part of the world to disappear. However, it is possible to make a small difference in the quality of the night sky. Another goal of this event is to promote the use of better lighting systems that direct light toward the ground instead of up into the sky.
Jennifer Barlow states, “The night sky is a gift of such beauty that it should not be polluted by wasted light. In this way, our children will not lose touch with the wonder of our universe.”
(1)Which of the following statements about the National DarkSky Week is WRONG?
A.It is becoming more and more popular in America.
B.The event was started in 2003 by Jennifer Barlow.
C.The event takes place in the first week of every April.
D.American people are supposed to turn off their lights during that week.
(2)What is Jennifer Barlow's wish?
A.That light would be directed up into the sky.
B.That the sky would always be as dark as possible.
C.That people could see the night sky without light pollution as our ancestors did.
D.That people could spend time enjoying the beauty of the sky every night.
(3)What is the main goal of the National DarkSky Week?
A.To promote the use of better lighting systems.
B.To help people realize the harm of light pollution.
C.To cause all the light pollution in America to disappear.
D.To help young children enjoy the wonder of our universe.

【题目】Amazing Facts About ELF Owls

The elf owl is mostly found in the southwestern parts of the United States and Mexico. During the spring and summer seasons, it moves to Arizona and New Mexico. It returns to Mexico for the winter. The elf owl doesn’t build its own nest. It lives in tree holes.

The elf owl is a yellow bird with dark wings. Its eyes are bright yellow and its feet are large. It is the smallest owl of the species, only about 12.5—14.5 centimeters long. It is also the world’s lightest owl, weighing not more than forty grams. In general, female elf owls weigh more than male ones.

The female usually lays three eggs at a time. After the young elf owls are born, their mother will feed them with worms for up to three to four weeks. After 10 weeks, the young ones are fully grown and ready to take flight.

The elf owls are not aggressive birds. When danger comes, they will fly away in the other direction, rather than staying and facing the danger or their enemies. Besides flying, the elf owl can also walk and climb like a parrot. The elf owl is most active duck, during the night and just before dawn. It can produce many different kinds of sounds. It can live for three to six years in the wild. If they are kept in cages, they can live for ten to fourteen years. The elf owls are now in danger because of the loss of habitat.
