11．Snow leopards （豹） are so hard to photograph that scientists aren't even sure how many of these endangered animals still live in the wild.
The Snow Leopard Conservancy（SLC）set up 20 cameras in Russia in 2010 to learn more about the big cats.After a full six months，they had exactly zero picture!That's when the organization understood they needed help.And the only people who could help them in finding the leopards were the very people from whom they wanted to protect the animals-local hunters （獵人）．
Hunting snow leopards is against the law in Russia，but in the terrible climate of Siberia，the few people living there had to turn to poaching （盜獵） to feed their families.
In 2013，Russian naturalist Sergei Spitsyn approached Mergen Markov，a local hunter，and told him his project.Markov agreed to set up the camera where he knew he would find leopards，and it worked.
Markov，once a poacher，works full time for the conservationists now and has 10 cameras monitoring leopards. "I visit each camera once a month.I have known this whole region since I was a child，" he said proudly.
The World Wildlife Fund （WWF） began working with other local villagers in 2015.The village would be paid 40，000 rubles at the end of the year if the image of a snow leopard is caught.WWF also rents horses from the villagers so that they do not need to make money by poaching anymore. "Today there are far fewer leopard poachers but leopards still get caught in traps set for other animals，so I have to stay watchful，" said Markov.
Changing guns for cameras has made a big difference in the lives of these former poachers，the village，and the Russian snow leopards.The number of snow leopards has been rising and their population is expected to recover to normal levels within 10 years.
（1）Why was no picture of snow leopards taken in six months？
A．SLC's 20 cameras failed to work properly.
B．The number of snow leopards in the wild was too small.
C．The local poachers destroyed these cameras on purpose.
D．The researchers knew little about the animal's living habits.
（2）What did Sergei Spitsyn persuade Markov to do？
A．Find the poachers.
B．Repair cameras in the forest.
C．Catch more leopards.
D．Work for SLC.
（3）Why did the WWF begin working with local villagers？
A．To get some pictures of snow leopards.
B．To help villagers make a living.
C．To prevent villagers from hunting animals.
D．To rent their horses at a low price.
（4）How can we describe the WWF's cooperation with the villagers？
A．Practice makes perfect.
B．Curiosity kills the cat.
C．Kill two birds with one stone.
D．Old habits die hard.組卷：7引用：2難度：0.5 -
12．Have you tried to run or walk for exercise and then given up？If you answered yes，you should try a new kind of exercise：aquatic （水中的） exercise.Aquatic exercise is like exercise on land，but you do it in a swimming pool.More and more people are trying aquatic exercise now.
Aquatic exercise feels easier than exercising on land.Why？You weigh about 90% less in the pool.It is better for your knees than running or walking.Water is about 1，000 times thicker and heavier than air.To move through the water，your body has to work four times as hard.As a result，you can burn more calories （卡路里）.
In fact，most people say they feel more relaxed in the water.They stop thinking about the things that make them worried.They feel in control of their bodies.The cool，quiet environment makes them feel good.
But what if you are afraid of the water？No problem!There is nothing to worry about.Aquatic exercise is safe and easy to learn.It doesn't require any special skills.You don't even need to know how to swim.Aquatic exercise is for everyone.

14．When he was 7，Diebedo Francis Kere left his native village Gando at the insistence of his father so that he might learn to read and write.Gando had neither a school nor electricity nor running water.Kere returned home on holidays，and at the end of every visit，the women villagers would reveal a penny tucked in their waistbands-often their last penny-that they'd give him as a parting gift.The pennies were their way of contributing to the boy's education.
It was a worthwhile investment：Kere is now an architect，and in 2001，he did return to Gando to build his first education building，Gando Primary School.Kere settled on a method of fortifying（加固）locally made clay bricks with concrete and created a floating，double-roof system that allows hot air to rise out of the building and cool air to come in.Colorful shutters（百葉窗） allow teachers to direct sunlight into the room depending on the hour of the day.Most significantly，the school was built by village members -who helped produce the bricks，build the walls and polish the mud floors.This not only allowed the village to build a new school in a timely and economical fashion but it also taught marketable construction techniques to untrained laborers.
For this work and other high-profile projects，Kere became the first African architect to win the Pritzker Architecture Prize. "Francis Kere's work shows us the power of materiality rooted in place.It is sustainable to the earth and its residents-in lands of extreme scarcity（缺乏），" announced Tom Pritker，chairman of the award.
Of his work，Kere said in a statement，"It is not because you are rich that you should waste material.It is not because you are poor that you should not try to create quality."

A．Spread.

D．Hidden.
（2）What can we learn about Gando Primary School？

B．It was built together by local residents.
C．It reflected the villagers' high techniques.
D．It was equipped with good air conditioners.
（3）What made Kere honored with the prize？

15． There are hundreds of genres （流派） of music，so while some might like one kind，others might like something completely different.Why do people like different kinds of music？
（1）At the same time，music can also help us feel like part of a group or a culture，especially one that shares an interest in a certain kind of music.
Music can also be nostalgic，that is，it creates a kind of longing for the past.Musicians leave behind a footprint with their music.（2）Even long after the musicians are gone，people still find something in the musicians' recordings that they can enjoy.
We may also find that the music we like is strongly tied to our memory.Maybe there was a song that someone sang to us when we were little that brings up good memories. （3）
When we listen to music that we like，a chemical called dopamine is sometimes released in the brain，which can make us feel good. （4）There are some algorithms （算法） today that can help pick up on the kind of music we like.When we are streaming music，some programs will let us like or dislike songs.
People's taste in music can remain the same in their whole life or it can change many times.But the truth is，we don't know all the exact answers to why people like different kinds of music — or sports，or food，or colors. （5）We are all different people who like different things.
A．It's music to our ears.
B．Music can be a part of our identity.
C．It becomes a mirror that we are holding up.
D．They leave a permanent mark in people's lives.
E．Therefore，we might want to listen to a song on repeat.
F．Other times，we might find music can bring up sad memories.
G．There are lots of different factors that can influence our preferences.組卷：40引用：9難度：0.5

18． Cold December wind passed right through my worn coat.I might have wished to be at home，but those days it wasn't much warmer there than it was standing at the bus stop.Mama had written a letter to the electric company explaining that we were late paying our bill because my sister was ill and Daddy had been laid off，but the power was cut off anyway.That's why we went to town to pay the bill in person.
I sat close to Buddy Earl for warmth on the bus when it finally showed up.The walk to the electric company office from the bus stop was only a couple of blocks，but it was a relief to get inside.
After settling the bill Mama brought us over to Rich's department store.There was Santa in a big wooden chair. "You two go to talk to him，" she said. "Just don't expect to get all you ask for." Buddy Earl and I joined the line of children waiting，and Mama sat on a bench nearby.
Then Santa started talking with us and asked us what we wanted.Santa reached in his pocket，pulled out a notepad and scribbled something with a pencil. "Is your mother with you two？" he asked.I pointed to the bench. "That's our mother over there.She's waiting for us to finish." Santa lifted Buddy Earl off his knee. "Could you ask her to come and talk tome？" he said.
Later，Mama and Santa talked for a few minutes.Santa took a couple more notes.Then Mama brought us home.We didn't dare ask about their private conversation.Christmas morning Mama and Daddy gathered us around our tree to give thanks for all we had.There were no toys from Santa under the tree.No presents at all，really.But that was okay，especially since we had electricity again.I felt pretty good as I took my seat at the kitchen table.
