[2016·遵义市联考]The oldest giant panda living in cage is set to challenge the world record for the animals' long life, with her age said to be the same as a human being at least 100 years old.

Hong Kong's giant panda Jiajia, whose name means “good”， will turn 37 this summer at the theme park Ocean Park， matching the Guinness World Records title for the oldest panda survivor in cage—Du Du, who died in 1999, aged 37.“It is rare for pandas to live to this age，” said Grant Abel, the park's director of animal care.

Born in the Chinese mainland in 1978, Jiajia was gifted to Hong Kong in 1999, along with another panda, to mark the second anniversary of the city's handover from former colonial ruler Britain. She weighs 80 kg and is considered to be in remarkably good health for her age, even though her eyesight is severely impaired and her hearing has grown worse, says Paolo Martelli, the park's chief vet Jiajia takes medicines for high blood pressure and arthritis. She walks slowly and avoids the exhibition area of her fence, preferring to stay at the back and feast on several kilograms of bamboo shoots and leaves, besides fruit and high­fibre bread.

“The first thing I thought when I saw Jiajia was, Oh my God, she's so old; I'm going to be the one to bury her，” Martelli said.

“But actually it's been 10 years now. And she's had a few ups and downs， but she always manages to recover and look surprisingly good for years after that，” he said, adding that it was hard to predict her remaining lifetime.

A Chinese mainland government survey in 2014 estimated 1,864 pandas live in the wild, up 17  percent from 2003.

They also have an exceptionally short breeding (繁殖) season, with females fertile (可繁殖的) for just 24 to 36 hours a year, says a nonprofit body, Pandas International.

本文讲述的是香港在笼子内生活的大熊猫Jiajia在生存年龄上创造了新的纪录，以及熊猫Jiajia的一些情况介绍。

1．Jiajia was sent to Hong Kong in 1999 to ________.

A．celebrate her 37th birthday

B．apply for the Guiness World Records

C．celebrate the return of the city

D．receive better care from caregivers

答案：C　细节理解题。根据第三段“Born in the Chinese mainland in 1978, Jiajia was gifted to Hong Kong in 1999，”可知。

2．The underlined word “impaired” in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.

A．repaired            B．controlled  

C．recovered               D．damaged

答案：D　词义猜测题。根据该词所在的句子“even though”这一连词以及“and her hearing has grown worse”可以猜测。

3．How does Martelli feel when first seeing Jiajia?

A．Anxious                  B．Cautious 

C．Humorous                D．Curious

答案：A　推理判断题。根据第四段作者对在见Jiajia后的描述“Oh my God, she's so old; I'm going to be the one to bury her，”可知。

4．From a Chinese government survey, we can learn that ________.

A．pandas have a short breeding season

B．there will be more pandas living in the wild

C．pandas can live a longer and healthier life in the wild

D．we cannot keep the pandas in the cage

答案：B　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“...estimated 1,864 pandas live in the wild, up 17  percent from 2003.”可推知。

1．survivor n. 幸存者  2.anniversary n. 周年纪念日

3．recover v. 恢复；痊愈  4.predict vt. 预测

5．survey n. 调查

1．the same as 与……一样  2.ups and downs 沉浮；盛衰

译文：香港的大熊猫“佳佳”，她的名字的意思是“好的”，将于今年夏天在主题公园Ocean Park到达37岁。

[2016·安徽示范高中联考]Many of us have had this annoying experience: You are waiting at a bus station when someone nearby begins to smoke a cigarette. You frown and move, but it seems that there isn't much you can do about it.

The situation is changing now, as in Beijing, a new ban is set to fight against smoking. Seen as the toughest anti­smoking regulation in China's history, the law makes smoking in Beijing locations such as offices, restaurants, hotels and hospitals punishable by fines.

Businesses that fail to rein_in smoking can be fined up to 10,000 yuan and repeat offenders could have their licenses revoked (吊销)．

Individual smokers themselves can be fined up to 200 yuan. As well as indoor smoking, the law prohibits lighting up in some open­air spaces close to schools, hospitals, and sports stadiums. Tobacco advertisements are not allowed to appear outdoors.

Health commission inspectors will be in charge, carrying out spot­checks and acting on tip­offs from the public­posters in the capital advertise a hotline number, and the city government has launched a social media account allowing observers to upload images of smokers caught in the act.

“Since previous anti­smoking laws have been poorly enforced (实施), we don't expect it will be entirely smooth running，”said Bernhard Schwartlaender, the WHO's representative in China. “Key point is...enforcement.”

“I don't think you can just rely on policy，” Yang Gonghuan, deputy head of the Chinese Association on Tobacco Control, said of the law. “Parents and teachers who smoke have a strong influence on children. Smoking scenes in films and TV programs also make young people wrongly connect tobacco use with glamour (魅力) and a cool image.”

本文讲述的是北京禁止在公共场合吸烟的问题。

5．The best title for the passage is probably ________.

A．No More Smoking, Beijing

B．Anti­smoking Movement

C．Fight against indoor smokers

D．Get rid of tobacco in China

答案：A　主旨大意题。根据第二段首句“The situation is changing now, as in Beijing, a new ban is set to fight against smoking.”并结合下文内容可确定答案。

6．What does the underlined phrase “rein in” in the third paragraph probably mean?

A．Promote            B．Control

C．Advocate            D．Quit

答案：B　词义猜测题。根据“...can be fined up to 10,000 yuan and repeat offenders could have their licenses revoked.”可猜得语义为B项；fined(罚款)与revoked(吊销)为关键信息。

7．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．There used to be some anti­smoking laws in the past.

B．Experts are positive about the new anti­smoking law.

C．Beijing is the first city in China to produce a ban on smoking.

D．The most effective way to ban smoking is to get smokers fined.

答案：A　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Since previous anti­smoking laws have been poorly enforced...”可知A正确，B项根据“we don't expect it will be entirely smooth running，”可知错误，C项未提及，D项表达错误。

8．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.

A．family members are the decisive factor

B．teachers hold the key to fighting against smoking

C．education matters in discouraging people from smoking

D．media are responsible for the failure of banning smoking

答案：C　推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Parents and teachers who smoke have a strong influence on children.”可知。

3．prohibit vt. 禁止

4．advertisement n. 广告
