In Sweden, McDonald’s is building “bee hotels” on the back of its roadside billboard s (广告牌) to help save the country’s decreasing bee population. It launched the campaign together with outdoor advertising giant JCDecaux. Six large wooden bee hotels, with drilled holes on the front, first appeared on the back of a north-facing billboard in Jarfalla in September.

“Without pollination (授粉) from bees, a third of the food we eat would be threatened."McDonald's said.But it turns out that at least 30 percent of the country's wild bee population is endangered, according to the fast-food chain. A big problem is that they lack places to live. Based on data released by Chalmers University of Technology, we know Sweden owns 274 species of bees, of which 37 species are bumblebees, and more than a third are decreasing or face the risk of decreasing. Their natural habitats have been damaged by factors including the changes of agricultural activities and fast urbanization (城市化). fortunately, most bees are able to survive in urban habitats, like the bee hotels.
Every McDonald’s authorized restaurant in Sweden will be allowed to order their own bee hotel billboards and design the messages by themselves, as the fast-food chain says. It is their hope that the number of hotels could grow to a greater extent in the near future. Great efforts in addition to that have been made by the company. On World Bee Day, May 20, it introduced “the world’s smallest McDonald’s. McHive, which could function as an actual beehive (蜂箱). Designed by set designer Nilsson himself, the creation was sold for $10,000 at a charity fundraiser held for Ronald McDonald House Charities.
Beehives can be found on the rooftops of some McDonald’s restaurants in Sweden, too. This took place in certain areas but is now followed by an increasing number of participants. More McDonald’s restaurants are making an effort to improve the living conditions of wild bees by removing the grass round their restaurants to grow flowers and plants instead.

24. According to the passage, the challenge that wild bees are facing is ____________.
    A. the fast process of industry.
    B. the world's Large amount of trash.

C. the rapid development of urbanization.

D. the sharp growth of population.
25. How does McDonald's help wild bees in Sweden?
A. By providing shelters for bees.
B. By offering food to bees.
C. By advertising rescue activities.

D. By putting up more billboards.

6. What is the best title for the text?
   A. Wild bees in danger.
   B. The loss of bees’ habitats.

C. McDonald’s bee hotels.

D. The protection of wild bees.

Harry was afraid of the wind. It blew off his hat. It whistled under his door. It made the fence murmur scary music.
”How can anyone be afraid of the wind?” asked Harry's friend Antony many times. Harry shrugged (耸肩). Antony always comforted him and encouraged him. Sometimes that made Harry feel better. But not for long.
On windy days Harry stood at his window and watched Antony riding his bike, whose hair flew in the wind. He watched his friend playing cheerfully in the wind. wishing he weren't afraid.
One day Antony came to Harry's house to play. "Look at my glider (滑翔机), " said Antony. "It does tricks and loop-de-loops when I fly it outside in the wind." "Nice," said Harry.
When clouds rolled in, the tree in front of Harry's house swung. A garbage can top clattered (发出撞击声）down the street. Antony couldn't wait to fly the glider outside and invited Hay to play together, but he refused.
Harry stayed inside and played with his construction set. He pictured launching the glider with Antony. But when he imagined the wind blowing against his face and blowing off his hat, he trembled.
Harry drew pictures of Antony's glider lifting with the wind. Gradually, hearing the happy laughter and shouts of more children outside, he felt sad to be in his room while everyone else was there.
Harry began to make a kite. He took two sticks from his cruft bin and crossed them. He tied them together and made a diamond shape with four more sticks. He glued the colored paper onto the sticks and attached a ball of string to make a rudder (方向舵). He held the kite up high, his twinkling eyes staring at it.

Paragraph 1 He pretended the kite was flying against the clouds. His cheeks glowed as he danced around the room. But after a while, he got tired of pretending. Outside the window Antony’s glider was making brilliant circles, flying upside down, children’s claps echoing. At the sight of this, Harry stopped, ducked his head and sighed. He was tired of feeling afraid. Suddenly a ripple of courage welling up from his heart, he wanted to step outside and fly the kite in the wind. He yelled to encourage himself, "I AM NOT AFRAID!”
Paragraph 2 Finally, Harry took his kite and went outside. The wind blowing on his face, he hesitated. At that moment, Antony's spiraling glider landed beside his feet. “Come on, Harry!"Antony came rushing toward him and yelled in an exhilarated tone. Harry took a deep breath, summoned up the courage and joined him. Harry tried to let his kite go, Antony standing behind to help him. Seeing the kite riding the wind, Harry couldn't contain his excitement and picked up his speed. The wind blew so hard that it blew off his hat, but surprisingly he didn't mind. Harry let out the string and the kite climbed higher, the kite's vivid colors sparkling in the sunlight.
