W: Where have you been, Justin?

M: I was playing with Stanley. We built a treehouse in that big tree in Miss Johnson’s yard.

W: That sounds dangerous. Couldn’t you build one in our yard? Or even across the street?

M: No, those trees are too small. We built it in five days. It looks really good.

W: Can I see it?

M: Sorry, Mom. No girls allowed.

W: OK, then, Justin. But where are your boots?

M: I think I left them in the treehouse. Can I get them tomorrow?

W: It’s going to rain tonight. Just how great is the roof on your treehouse?

M: Umm, we didn’t finish the roof yet. Do you think you could go get the boots out of there for me? I left my bike at Stanley’s house.

W: Sorry, Justin. I hear there are no girls allowed in this treehouse. But I’ll be happy to drive you down the street and you can get them.

M: Oh, thanks, Mom. I can’t wait to walk in the rain in my boots!

W: I knew you’d like it.

M: Yeah, Mom. Are you ready to go now? I think I heard some thunder.

【题目】 It was a Saturday evening in March,just before sundown,when we heard the screaming. I was out walking with my wife,Melissa,and our golden retriever(猎犬),Kira,beside a lake when the peace was broken by a woman’s voice,calling out two names over and over.

We spotted her,almost immediately,three or four hundred feet away across the lake. Spring had come but there was still snow on the ground,the water covered by a layer of ice that had just started to thaw. Two big dogs were walking across it. They appeared to be quite old and were moving slowly. As we watched,the ice gave way beneath one dog and then the other,plunging them into the water.

We arrived at the scene a few minutes later,but the dogs already seemed to be showing the effects of the cold as they struggled weakly to escape. We realized that calling 911 would be useless—the dog farther out was in water about 20 feet deep and I feared neither of them would stay afloat long enough for the emergency services to arrive. Besides,I was probably qualified to carry out the rescue myself. I was practicing the kind of deep breathing my grandfather had taught me as I walked in. I wasn’t alone—Kira swam alongside me. Having Kira there was a huge support. We were able to go back to shore quickly.

The second dog was further out and I had to pause before I went back in. That’s when another technique I’d learned from my grandfather came into play. He’d taught me about a pressure point on the wrist that when pressed in the right way sends out an electrical signal,like a jolt of energy. That kept me warm as I set out again with,Kira. I maintained eye contact with the dog as we approached. With Kira’s encouragement,it followed us back. The owner was emotional—“I’m the luckiest woman alive!”she said.

【1】What does the underlined word“thaw”in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A.Melt.B.Shake.

C.Flow.D.Appear.

【2】Why didn’t the writer call 911?

A.The writer’s dog has been trained to save lives.

B.The dogs could save themselves from the cold water.

C.There wasn’t enough time to wait for the emergency services.

D.The writer’s grandfather had taught him how to save the dogs.

【3】What do we know about the second technique the writer learned from his grandfather?

A.It makes him brave.B.It keeps him warm.

C.It allows him stay focused.D.It helps him walk quickly.

【4】Who accompanied and helped the writer while saving the dogs in the water?

A.His wife.B.The dogs’owner.

C.His grandfather.D.His dog.

【题目】 Atlantic puffins (海雀) spend most of their life at sea. When it's time to lay eggs, the birds gather on seaside cliffs. They dig into the ground to build nests. After a chick was born, it spends six weeks in the nest, feasting on fish supplied by its parents. Then the young bird must look after itself. It leaves the nest and flies to the sea.

But on Heimaey, an island off the coast of Iceland, human-made objects have disrupted the chicks’ trip to the ocean. Luckily, they are getting help from the children of Heimaey.

Instinct tells chicks to follow the light of the moon to the sea, but they are confused by Heimaey’s bright lights. Each year, a large number of them end up lost, or worse. Often, the birds are hit by cars or caught and eaten by cats.

Each breeding season, the children of Heimaey form search parties. They carry flashlights and cardboard boxes. “When you see a bird, you try to corner it and herd it into the box,” said Eldur Hansen. Eldur is 14 and he has caught several puffins this way. Each year, they rescue thousands of chicks. Children take rescued birds home. The next morning, they take them to the beach for release.

Before releasing the chicks, the children make a stop at the local aquarium, where the birds are weighed and tagged for tracking purposes. This helps scientists learn more about puffins.

Atlantic puffins are now listed as a rare species. That means they are likely to become endangered. The main reason is that the ocean’s supply of small fish is diminishing. This is tied to overfishing and rising ocean temperatures.

Erpur Hansen, Eldur Hansen’s dad, is with the South Iceland Nature Research Center. He said the children’s action was more important than ever. Thanks to data gathered with the children’s help, researchers have learned that chicks now weigh less than in previous years. That means they have a lower chance of survival. Researchers worry that puffins will die out if ocean temperatures continue to rise, but the children’s rescue inspires them.

【1】What will a mother puffin do after a chick was born?

A.Catch fish to feed the chick.B.Stay in the nest for six weeks.

C.Leave the nest and fly to the sea alone.D.Lead the chick back to the sea at once.

【2】What may disturb the chicks’ sense of direction on their way to the sea?

A.The cars.B.The children.C.The animals.D.The lights.

【3】What does the underlined word “diminishing” in Paragraph 6 mean?

A.Changing.B.Decreasing.C.Accumulating.D.Abandoning.

【4】How do the researchers compare the chicks’ weight?

A.Getting information from the library.B.Researching the colors of the chicks.

C.Studying the data collected by the children.D.Weighing the chicks adopted at the local aquarium.
