1．Unbelievable Stories of Animals Acting Just Like Humans ◆Horses are picky eaters
Horses have an even better sense of smell than humans do.When horses raise their noses and open their nostrils（鼻孔） ，their nervous system allows them to sense smells we can't sense.This might explain why they refuse dirty water and carefully move around meadows，eating only the tastiest grasses，experts say.
◆Whale says thanks
In 2011，a whale expert spotted a humpback whale trapped in a fishing net and spent an hour freeing it.Afterward，in an hour-long display of thanks，the whale swam near their boat and leaped into the air about 40 times.
◆Pandas like to be naughty
Is there anything more lovely than a baby panda，except maybe a human baby？In fact，baby pandas sometimes behave like human babies.They sleep in the same positions and value their thumbs.Pandas are shy by nature for its shy behaviors such as covering its face with a paw of ducking its head when confronted by a stranger.
◆A cat honors its owner
Paper towels，and a plastic cup are just a few of the gifts that Toldo，a devoted three-year-old gray-and-white cat，has placed on his former owner Iozzelli Renzo's grave every day since the man died in September 2011.Renzo adopted Toldo from a shelter when the cat was three months old，and the two formed an inseparable bond.After Renzo passed away，Toldo followed the coffin to the cemetery，and now "stands guard" at the grave for hours at a time.

2．After years of heated debate，gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park.Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park.By last year，the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves.
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States，but they were gradually displaced by human development.By the 1920s，wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area.They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada，where there were fewer humans around.
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results.Deer and elk populations—major food sources （來(lái)源） for the wolf—grew rapidly.These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation （植被），which reduced plant diversity in the park.In the absence of wolves，coyote populations also grew quickly.The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park's red foxes，and completely drove away the park's beavers.
As early as 1966，biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.
The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolvers.The
U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone.Today，the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone.Elk，deer，and coyote populations are down，while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.
（1）What is the text mainly about？
A．Wildlife research in the United States.
B．Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.
C．The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.
D．The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.
（2）What does the underlined word "displaced" in paragraph 2 mean？

D．Tracked down.
（3）What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about？
A．Damage to local ecology.
B．A decline in the park's income.
C．Preservation of vegetation.
D．An increase in the variety of animals.
（4）What is the author's attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project？
A．Doubtful.
B．Positive.
C．Disapproving.
D．Uncaring.組卷：2引用：3難度：0.5 -
3． Have you ever considered all the English expressions that include words about clothes？Let's have a look.
People wear pants to cover the lower part of their bodies.We sometimes say that people who are nervous have ants in their pants.Sometimes，people may get caught with their pants down.They are found doing something they should not be doing.And，in every family，one person takes control.Sometimes a wife tells her husband what to do.Then we say she wears the pants in the family.
Pants usually have pockets to hold things.Money that is likely to be spent quickly can burn a hole in your pocket.Sometimes you need a belt to hold up your pants.If you have less money than usual，you may have to tighten your belt.
I always praise people who can save their money and not spend too much.I really take my hat off to them.Yet，when it comes to my own money，I spend it at the drop of a hat，which means I instantly spend it.
Boots are a heavy or strong kind of shoes.People who are too big for their boots think they are more important than they really are.I dislike such people.
My father is an important person.He runs a big company.He wears a suit and tie，and a shirt with sleeves （袖子） that cover his arms.Some people who do not know him well think he is too serious and never shows his feelings openly.But I know that my father wears his heart on his sleeve.

4．People have been enjoying the benefits of cycling（騎自行車(chē)）in Amsterdam（阿姆斯特丹） for years.It is a good city for cycling because it is flat and there are plenty of places for bicycle parking.Today some people call Amsterdam "City of Bicycles" because of the convenience for bicycles there.
In the 1960s，a group of cycling fans had an idea.They believed that it would be better for everybody if cars weren't allowed in the city center and only bicycles were.They were hopeful that this would help to save energy，reduce pollution and provide free public transport.The group painted hundreds of bicycles white and placed them in lots of neighborhoods around Amsterdam for people to use.Then a problem came-- thieves took all the bicycles within weeks!
However，more than thirty years later，the "white bike" is back in town--this time with a computer chip（芯片） to record its every move!To take a bicycle，you have to insert（插入）a special card.The new "white bike" is not actually white but is an unusual design with bright colours.The bikes are parked at special parking places and people who want to use them have to take them to another special parking place that has enough room.
There is already less traffic in central Amsterdam，because both locals and tourists have been using the white bikes.Instead，thanks to the good ideas of lots of people，like the cycling fans in the 1960s，many people around the world have been enjoying city centre streets without cars many years.

5．To help you understand what 5 G is，and what it means to you，we've put together a handy guide here.
What is 5 G？
（1）At its most basic level，5 G will be used to make calls，send texts，and to simply get online.But it's going to be significantly faster than previous generations，and could open the door up to a range of exciting new uses.
（2）
5 G will use new higher radio frequencies to send out data，which are less cluttered（擠了）and carry information much faster.While these higher bands are faster，they don't carry information as far.That's to say，smaller multiple input and output antennas（天線）will be used - promoting both signals and capacity（容量）.（3）
Why is it better than 4 G？
5 G is expected to be faster than 4 G，with some firms claiming it could be as much as 100 times quicker.The fastest 4 G networks can deliver peak download speeds of around 300 Mbit/s.（4）In real life，this could allow you to download a full HD film in less than 10 seconds!
（5）It means there will be very little - if any - delay when you carry out tasks on a device.While this will help improve things like gaming experiences，it could also pave the way for safer self-driving cars - in which even a short delay could be life-saving.
Finally，5 G will have a larger capacity，meaning networks will be able to deal with several apps at once.Generally，this should mean that devices have a faster，more stable connection.
A.How does 5 G work？
B.How will 5 G affect you？
C.5 G is also expected to have a lower latency（潛在因素）.
D.5 G is short for "5th generation mobile network."
E.In comparison，5 G could offer download speeds of over 1 Gb/s.
F.Therefore，the similarity between 5 G and 4 G technology is huge.
G.This means 5 G will support up to 1，000 more devices per meter than 4 G.組卷：22引用：4難度：0.5
