三、阅读单选

Being an orphan (孤儿) is difficult; however, being an animal orphan can be deadly.

This season, the Volunteers for Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in Locust Valley took in six young red-tailed hawks (鹰). If we could get these birds back with their parents, they would have a better chance of surviving. However, we couldn’t find their nests or parents.

But there was another way to help them: foster (寄养的) parenting. But we must place the orphans with other adult pairs before nesting season ended in early July. It’s not always easy. Hawk nests are often 40 or 50 feet high in trees. What’s more, not all birds will accept foster chicks. So we paid close attention to the research by experts before moving chicks.

That day, we happily knew of a nest that was still active at Bethpage State Park! There was one chick in the nest. And the young bird was going to fly but was still in the nest and being fed.

So we decided to move one of our orphan birds. I drove the bucket truck to the nest tree; Lauren, my workmate, held our chick. And up we three went in the bucket. We worked fast, for the wild parents might be back soon, and the female hawk could be aggressive!

To make sure the adults had accepted their new child, I came by later in the day and the next morning. Oh, they had! The chick was just fed up and the adult female hawk sat nearby, staring at me closely.

The results were so encouraging and we tried it again! A week later ,we successfully placed another chick in the same nest.

The adult hawks now had three children to care for, one theirs and two foster chicks. It was heartwarming to see the two animal orphans living in their new loving family!

36．What was the problem for the volunteers?

A．They didn’t know how to feed the orphans.

B．Many chicks died before nesting season ended.

C．No birds would like to foster other parents’ chicks.

D．They couldn’t find the animal orphans’ homes.

37．Why did they place the orphans with other adult pairs?

A．To do some research on the chicks.

B．To help the orphans find their parents quickly.

C．To let the orphans get a better chance of surviving.

D．To look for a big tree for the orphans to nest.

38．The underlined word “aggressive” in paragraph five probably refers to ________.

A．worried B．relaxed C．dangerous D．forgetful

39．What can we know about the nest at Bethpage State Park?

A．The adult hawks had three their chicks to look after.

B．The young bird was still fed in the nest.

C．The wild parents were always watching closely near the nest.

D．The adult female hawk was much kinder to people.

40．What did the author think of the result?

A．Pleasing. B．Challenging. C．Tiring. D．Hopeful.

In 1992, Zhang Baoyan and her husband Qin Yanyou experienced the anxiety after losing their son for hours by accident. From then on, the couple started to pay attention to missing children and tried their best to offer help to them. They set up a website—www.baobeihuijia.com—to help parents find their missing children for free. In order to run it well, Zhang gave up her job and became a full-time volunteer. She talked on the phone for hours a day and paid up to 2,000 yuan a month. The couple had travelled from south to north, rushed to rescue the missing children. In 2009, Zhang's "Suggestions on building a DNA database to fight against child trafficking (非法交易)" were accepted by the Ministry of Public Security, which provides strong technical support for helping missing children accurately find their relatives. Since 2007, "Baby Go Home" has been growing fast, it has become a backbone to light the baby home road. At present, Baby Go Home is the only national search website cooperating with the anti-trafficking office of the Ministry of Public Security.

When Zhang turns on her computer every day, she is greeted by more than 200 work groups and discussion groups at Baby Go Home. The children who need help may find their way home in this way. Volunteers play a major role in searching children. They download and upload the information on the platform of "Baby Go Home Search Network" to match possible families and children, and carry out the search work in a scientific and efficient way. At the beginning, there were only a few volunteers, but now there are more than 300,000 volunteers all over the country.

"I don't want Baby Go Home to get bigger and bigger. I want the website to get smaller and smaller. My final goal is no child trafficking," said Zhang.

71．例文：                        

I have done a lot of volunteer work. My most unforgettable volunteering experience was taking part in Waste-sorting Activity in our community with my friend. First, we introduced the importance of waste-sorting in our daily life. Second, we told the grandparents in our community the differences among the dustbins. Third, we told them how to sort out different kinds of waste and put them into different dustbins. We were busy all the afternoon. We were tired but we were happy because we thought we did something meaningful.

I have learnt a lot from the experience. If we sort out recyclable things before throwing them away, the amount of waste will be reduced and less waste will be burned or buried.
