B.To master a skill. C.To collect plants. D.To climb cliffs.‎ ‎25.What does the underlined word"precarious"in Paragraph 3 probably mean?‎ 12‎ A.Famous. B.Wet. C.Dangerous. D.Unsteady.‎ ‎26.What is Luo Dengping's husband?‎ A.A migrant worker. B.A performer. C.A distributor. D.A driver.‎ ‎27.What can be the best title for the text?‎ A.China's Only"Spider Woman”‎ B.The Promotion of Ancient Skills C.A Hobby Makes"Spider Woman”‎ D.Spider Men Becomes a Must-see C A Japanese aquarium(水族馆）that has been closed because of the coronavirus outbreak is asking people to make video calls to the aquarium's eels(鳗鱼）。‎ The reason?Aquarium workers fear the sensitive creatures may not remember humans exist and do not present a threat.The Sumida Aquarium has been closed since the start of March.Its sea animals have become used to a largely human-free environment during the two-month period of calm.‎ ‎＂Creatures in the aquarium don't see humans except keepers and they have started forgetting about humans,”the aquarium said on its Twitter account this week.Garden eels in particular disappear into the sand and hide every time the keepers pass by."That is causing difficulties for keepers trying to check on the health of the animals.”‎ So the aquarium decided to offer an invitation to the public."Could you show your face to our garden eels from your home?"It is describing the new effort as a face-showing festival.‎ Garden eels are very sensitive by nature.But the 300 garden eels that live in a tank at the aquarium had become used to humans.They rarely hid in the sand from visitors.‎ To try to reintroduce the eels to humans,the aquarium is putting five computer tablets in front of their tank.The public can connect through the FaceTime app.Once the video calls start,people are supposed to show their faces,wave their hands and talk to the eels.But given the quiet nature of the animals,callers are asked not to shout.‎ The"face-showing festival"is set to take place Sunday through Tuesday,during Japan's Golden Week holiday,when many people usually travel.This Golden Week,however,people have been asked to stay at home while the country remains under a state of emergency.‎ ‎28.What's the aim to make video calls to the aquarium's eels?‎ 12‎ A.To enrich their lives.‎ B.To show human's threat.‎ C.To emphasize human's care.‎ D.To appeal to living in harmony.‎ ‎29.How did garden eels feel when seeing keepers?‎ A.Fearful. B.Relaxed. C.Thankful. D.Desperate.‎ ‎30.What is improper for people to do through the FaceTime app?‎ A.Show faces. B.Wave hands. C.Talk to the eels. D.Speak loudly.‎ ‎31.What type of writing is this text?‎ A.A news report. B.An show review. C.An announcement. D.A science report.‎ D Red pandas are native to the high forests of Asia.They are only a little bigger than a house cat and considered to be endangered.‎ Scientists reported last month that not all red pandas belong to the same species.There are two different species of this animal,not just one.The scientists reported finding major differences in three genetic markers between Chinese red pandas and Himalayan red pandas. Scientists identified the markers after studying DNA from 65 of the creatures.DNA carries genetic information for the development,growth and reproduction of living things. Documenting the existence of two separate species could help guide efforts for protecting red pandas.‎ Chinese red pandas live in northern Myanmar,as well as southeastern Tibet,Sichuan,‎ and Yunnan provinces in China.Himalayan red pandas are native to Nepal,India,Bhutan and southern Tibet in China.Conservation biologists Yibo Hu and Fuwen Wei led the study. Their findings were published in the journal Science Advances.‎ ‎＂To conserve the genetic uniqueness of the two species,we should avoid their interbreeding in captivity,"Hu said."Interbreeding between species may harm the genetic adaptations already established for their local habitat environment."‎ Scientists had earlier suggested there were two species of red panda.But the new study was the first to provide the genetic information necessary to permit such a judgment. International experts estimate a total population of around 10,000 red pandas in the wild.The two species differ in coloration and skull shape.The Himalayan red panda is the rarer of the two.Major threats to red pandas include deforestation and habitat loss.‎ While they have similar names,red pandas and giant pandas are not closely related.Giant pandas are one of the world's eight bear species.Red pandas are sometimes 12‎ ‎ called living fossils because they have no close living relatives.They are the only remaining member of their mammalian family.‎ ‎32.What does the second paragraph mainly deal with?‎ A.Not all red pandas belong to the same species.‎ B.The major differences between the two species.‎ C.The difficulty in finding out genetic difference.‎ D.The significance for further research into pandas.‎ ‎33.Where can Himalayan red pandas be found?‎ A.Beoak. B.Yunnan province. C.Southeastern Tibet. D.Northern Myanmar.‎ ‎34.What is Yibo Hu's attitude to interbreeding between species?‎ A.Disapproval. B.Doubtful. C. Objective. D.Unclear.‎ ‎35.What can be said about the Himalayan red panda?‎ A.People used to care little about it.‎ B.Its living conditions are improving.‎ C.Habitat loss is a great threat to it.‎ D.Its skull shapes are easy to distinguish.‎ 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ How can you work to be emotionally stable?‎ Here are three ways that you can take care of yourself emotionally.‎ ‎1. 36.‎ A joyful heart is good medicine.I'm not telling you to go around and start laughing for no reason.But every time you get a chance to laugh,laugh.It's the best medicine that can heal the heart!Find things that will make you laugh and start wearing that beautiful smile of yours more.‎ ‎2.Find healing(治愈）and move forward.‎ ‎37.In fact,the damage is there to remind you how strong you are.But,it is important to accept that you're hurting.It's the only way to heal and move forward.See every difficulty as a lesson that we need to learn and grow.38!‎ 12‎ ‎3.You are not a superhero,and it's okay to talk to someone.‎ ‎39.As a girl who is always thinking I can fix everything on myself,it is hard to sit down and talk about the things that were bothering me.‎ The benefits of expressing yourself to someone are:‎ ‎● You are conquering your fears and reducing your anxiety ‎● You are relieving yourself from stress ‎● You will find freedom ‎● You will find peace in knowing that you are being understood Holding onto things will not benefit you in the long run.Eventually,your emotional pain will become noticeable physically.40.And the reason being is because you've been holding too much inside.‎ A.
