2．When British musician Paul Barton performs in central Thailand lately，the listeners react wildly.Some pull his hair or jump on his piano.Others steal his music.The behavior is normal，however，because these crowds are truly wild -wild monkeys to be exact.
Barton plays often to the animals in Lopburi，an area known for its populations of wild monkeys.The pianist hopes the music shows bring calm to the animals during the coronavirus（COVID-19）crisis.
The disease has caused problems for the monkeys，too.They are hungry.The restrictions on tourism mean fewer people come to see the monkeys and feed them.
The monkeys quickly surround Barton when he plays Greensleeves，Beethoven's Fur Elise and Michael Nyman's Diary of Love.Some of the creatures sit on his chair，while others climb up his body and touch his head.But，Barton keeps his attention on his performance，even as a small monkey runs over his hands on the instrument.Other monkeys take control of his music papers. "I was glad and surprised to find that they were actually eating the music as I was playing it."
The monkeys are Barton's latest animal fans.Past wildlife audience included elephants living in special protected areas.Barton hopes to raise people's awareness of the monkeys' hunger.At the same time，he hopes to study their behavior as they react to classical music.
"Come together and don't let the pandemic stop the wild monkeys getting good nutritious food.We need to make an effort to make sure that they eat properly.And when they eat properly they will be calmer，" said 59-year-old Barton.

3．It's easy to understand why early humans domesticated （馴養(yǎng)）dogs as their new best friends，domesticated dogs can guard against fierce animals and provide warmth during cold nights.But those benefits only come following domestication.Despite more than a century of study，scientists have struggled to understand what caused the domestication process in the first place.
A new theory given by Maria Lahtinen，a senior researcher，might be able to explain this puzzle.She made this theory when studying die diet of late Pleistocene hunter -gatherers in Arctic and sub - Arctic.At that time，around 20，000 to 15，000 years ago，the world was buried in the coldest period of the last ice age.In cold environments then，as today，humans tended to gain the majority of their food from animals.Nutritional deficiencies（缺失）came from the absence of fat and carbohydrates（碳水化合物），not necessarily protein.Indeed，if humans cat too much meat，they can develop protein poisoning and even die. "Because we humans are not fully adapted to an all - meat diet，we simply cannot digest protein very well，" Lahtinen says.
During the coldest years of the last ice age - and especially in tough Arctic and sub -Arctic winters-reindeer，wild horses and other animals that humans killed for food would have been struggling to live.Using previously published early fossil records，Lahtinen and her colleagues calculated that the game captured by people in the Arctic and sub - Arctic during this time would have provided much more protein than they could have safely consumed.
（1）What has been confusing scientists in the past century？
A．How domesticated dogs benefited humans.
B．When humans began to domesticate dogs.
C．What led to dog domestication originally.
D．Why early humans made friends with clogs.
（2）What will happen if one cats too much meat？
A．It can be fatal in a short period of time.
B．He will probably digest it very well.
C．He can develop carbohydrates poisoning.
D．He will survive the cold environment.
（3）What does the underlined word "game" in Paragraph 3 probably mean？
A．The fierce contests.
B．The hunting activities.
C．Wild animals or birds.
D．Some tricks or schemes.
（4）What can be learned about the late Pleistocene hunter-gatherers from the last paragraph？
A．They struggled with wild horses.
B．They shared extra meat with dogs.
C．They struggled to live a good life.
D．They had trouble adapting to the cold environment.組卷：1引用：1難度：0.5

9．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
On May 22，2011，Joplin Missouri was struck by one of the deadliest tornadoes in recorded history.At first，many residents，including me，felt hopeless.It seemed like the end of the world.Faced with confusion，uncertainly，loss and homelessness，we looked for any light to lead us out of the darkness.
The home of my parents，who were in their eighties，was severely damaged.Their roof was blown away，and the roof from a nearby school crashed into the front of their house.In seconds，the house they had lived in for years became impossible to live in.
As soon as my parents safely moved，I tried to determine if any of their remaining possessions could be saved.Regrettably，I discovered their roof，before departing for parts unknown，had dropped massive amounts of fiberglass insulation（絕緣材料）.This pink material made everything appear to be coated in cotton candy，but the glass fibers within it had ruined most of their furniture and clothing.
My parents had hoped，however，that I might be able to save some of their books and pictures.Unfortunately，every time I tried to remove a photo album from a drawer of a book from a shelf，the non - stop rain wet what I was trying to protect.Between the rain and the glass fibers，it all seemed hopeless.
Trying to fight off hopelessness，I took a minute to stand in what was left of my parents' bedroom.When I looked up through their non - existent proof，I saw gray clouds floating above me，and suddenly everything seemed so strange.Rain coated my upturned face，flooded my eyes，and flowed into my mouth.Overwhelmed（不知所措的），I felt like I was drowning，I needed fresh air，so I ran outside.
Standing on my parents' front yard in the rain，I could breathe better but I still had an overwhelming sense of hopelessness.
注意：
1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
2.請按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。
Suddenly，from out of nowhere，a thin，elderly man appeared at my side._________
I watched him making a cover over the house through the rain until I remembered I was supposed to be saving my parents' prized possessions._________組卷：7引用：1難度：0.3
