• 3．One million species（物種）face the risk of dying out，more than ever before in human history，according to a UN report released in May.And humans should be responsible.
     The Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services（IPBES）based the assessment（評(píng)估）on some 15，000 sources considering the causes and results of environmental changes over the past 50 years.
     The findings are clear and alarming.The researchers have found that about 25 percent of the world's plants and animals are at risk of dying out.These include sea and land animals.Even the domesticated（馴養(yǎng)的）animals are at risk：Over 9 percent of the domesticated animal species used for food and agriculture might have been lost.
     There are some big problems.This rapid decrease of the natural world endangers global food safety and quality of life.For example，about 4 billion people rely on natural medicines，produced by the disappearing species，for their health care.And losses of species that pollinate（授粉）plants threaten up to ﹩577 billion in crops each year.
     The researchers found five drivers responsible for the unpleasant news.They think at the top of the list is the change of land and sea use.The change in ecosystems towards agriculture and other human developments has led to changes in the natural living space of species.It is followed by the direct overuse of creatures （harvesting crops，cutting down the trees，hunting and fishing）and climate change，including rising sea levels and increasing extreme-weather events，wildfires，floods and droughts.The final causes of species' dying out are pollution，and the spread of non-native species that can displace or kill native plants and animals.
     The researchers say it is time for humans to make a change.They think maybe a new global way to save food and refuse waste in our life could turn the tables.Whether that is possible is an open question.
  
  （1）What is the main purpose of the first paragraph？

  
  A．To introduce the topic of the text.
  B．To introduce the schedule of the report.
  C．To introduce humans' sense of responsibility.
  D．To introduce the history of human development.
  （2）What does paragraph 3 mainly show？

  
  A．The reliability of the findings.
  B．The species of animals worldwide.
  C．The seriousness of the species' loss.
  D．The risky experiences of the researchers.
  （3）What is the biggest threat to species' survival according to the researchers？

  
  A．Climate change.
  B．Natural disasters.
  C．The direct overuse of creatures.
  D．The changes of their living space.
  （4）What are the researchers in favor of？

  
  A．Changing our living habits.
  B．Spreading non-native species.
  C．Limiting native plants and animals.
  D．Stopping discussing the food problem.

• 4．Whenever we talk about holidays，my mother teases my sister and me about how we "make out like robbers." She is referring to the fact that we are half Jewish and half Indian，so we receive gifts on both the festivals of lights.Hanukkah and Diwali.Though my mother teases us，I do not mind getting two sets of gifts!
     Hanukkah is celebrated on the 25th day of the Jewish month，which is usually sometime in December.On Hanukkah，like most Jewish families，we light a menorah（燭臺(tái)） and say a prayer each night.We also say a special prayer on the first night.After that，it is a tradition for my sister and me to do 'hot and cold'，for our hidden Hanukkah gifts.When we walk towards the gift，our parents say 'hot' and when we walk further away，they say 'cold'.We each receive one present every night of Hanukkah.Another part I like about this holiday is seeing family members who we do not see often.My aunt usually stays for a few days，and we sometimes visit other relatives.
     Diwali is celebrated on the 13th day of the dark fortnight of the month of Ashwin（October / November）.To celebrate Diwali，my family does a pooja，or prayers，in honor of the goddess Lakshmi.Since she is the goddess of wealth and prosperity，the pooja includes washing silver coins in milk and water.In India，people decorate their houses with lamps，similar to the way you might light up your house for Christmas.My family just places a few candles outside.We also set off firecrackers，which is my favorite part.We often do this activity with friends to add to the excitement.
     Both holidays have different histories and stories.We celebrate them in different ways，yet they both have the same meaning.And they both mean family and presents for me!
  
  （1）Why does the author receive gifts on both Hanukkah and Diwali？

  
  A．Because he lives in a rich family.
  B．Because he lives in two different countries.
  C．Because his parents like celebrating their different cultures.
  D．Because his parents like spending money buying gifts for them.
  （2）What does the underlined phrase "hot and cold" in paragraph 2 refer to？

  
  A．A kind of Hanukkah game.
  B．A kind of Hanukkah gift.
  C．A can of festival drink.
  D．A riddle written on lights.
  （3）We can learn from the text that Hanukkah and Diwali

  .
  A．share the same history and culture
  B．a(chǎn)re celebrated by both Jews and Indians
  C．a(chǎn)re both related to the legend of lights
  D．encourage the families to do their prayers
  （4）What is the author's attitude towards Hanukkah and Diwali？

  
  A．She enjoys celebrating both of them.
  B．She does mind spending them.
  C．She likes Hanukkah better.
  D．She likes Diwali better.

• 5．In our lives.jye.ai will have experienced a number of interviews as either interviewee or interviewer.Effective interviews are purposeful，planned and well-structured interactions.To be good at interview is vital to personal development in modern society. （1）

  The following are the practical guidelines both interviewer and interviewee can benefit from.
     Be prepared and confident.Understand the purpose of the interview，anticipate the questions you will ask and be asked，understand your goals and be able to communicate them clearly. （2）

  If you are not excited by your ideas and abilities，why should anyone else be？
     （3）

  Problems occur in interviews when either the interviewer or the interviewee fails to listen closely to what the other is saying.If participants listen carefully and are not thinking merely about what they plan to say next，the interview has a better chance of being productive.
     Practice sending and receiving messages.By its very nature，the interview demands that each party be skillful at sending and receiving verbal messages. （4）

  Not only must you clearly encode（編碼）the messages，you each must be skilled at reading the reactions and checking on the perceptions of the receiver.
     Be flexible.Don't over-prepare or just memorize statements.Think things through thoroughly，but be prepared for questions or answers you haven't anticipated. （5）

  
     As we can see，the interview，like any other interpersonal relationship，requires the cooperation skill and commitment of both parties to get effective results.
  
  A.Demonstrate effective listening skills.
  B.Reasonable demands of interviewees should be met.
  C.However，practicing interview questions can benefit you.
  D.It's significant to adjust to the other person's style and pace.
  E.Ask and answer questions and express your opinions with enthusiasm.
  F.You should also focus on the non-verbal signals sent to you and by you.
  G.Thus，mastering the techniques of impression management is necessary.
