In the city I live in, we have a local national park full of trees. I’m thankful for the place , although I do wish it were bigger. I was walking around when I saw a beautiful tarantula crossing a path. I just stopped and decided to absorb myself in its walking nature and how big the world was for that creature.

Behind me , there was a family going up the same track and they also noticed the tarantula. A kid shouted, “Quickly, dad! Kill it!” His brother also said that, encouraging their dad to kill the tarantula. Then I stopped their dad.

“Wait! This is the last place that the tarantula has to live in . Do you really want to kill it?” “Well, it’s dangerous and we have kids here.”

“Why not stand still and let it cross safely? Then you can go up and admire the rest of the forest.”

After some reflection and discussions, I convinced them to stand still and watch. Soon, the tarantula crossed and hid into the bushes and rocks. I think that sometimes fear gets into us but we need to keep calm and change our perspective. If we are kind to a tiny creature, then we can start to be kind to bigger ones.

Their dad thanked me and was moved by the above experience. He shook his head and said , “You’re right, I was about to make a mistake.”

The children even said goodbye to the frightening tarantula, and they learned something too. I remained there, watching there, watching the family pass with a new fresh perspective of life. 24. Why did the author stop in the park? A. To observe a tarantula.

B. To wait for the two b rothers. C. To protect a dangerous tarantula. D. To keep his distance from a tarantula. 25. Why did the kids ask their father to do? A. Feed the tarantula. B. Catch the tarantula. C. Move the tarantula. D. Destroy the tarantula.

26. According to the author , what should people do facing fear? A. Stay cool.

B. Turn to their father

C. Do whatever they can to escape. D. Think about something inspiring.

27. What was the kid’s attitude to the tarantula in the end? A. Annoyed. B. Fearful. C. Friendly. D. Indifferent.

C

Evidence has long suggested that certain animals can possess unusual abilities. Now science is proving many of these stories to be correct. Close observation of such animals could help people to plan well in advance of coming problems.

Henry Streby of the University of California discovered that warblers take off from their expected locations more than 24 hours before storms hit. In this case, the storm in question produced tornadoes that killed at least 35 people. “ The most curious finding is that the warblers flew away long before the storm arrived ,” said Streby.

Dogs can sniff out prostate cancer with 98 percent accuracy, found a study earlier this year. Dogs have about 200 million olfactory cells in their noses, versus only 5 million in the human nose. Their keen sense of smell helps to explain the cancer-discovering feat. Yet another study on dogs found that they can smell out diabetes through a person’s breath or sweat.

After the 2011 magnitude 9 earthquake in Japan, Hiroyuki Yamauchi of Nationgal Tsinghua University conducted a survey on how cats reacted ahead of the quake. The survey found that six or more days before the destroying earthquake, some cats engaged in unusual behaviors and became more stressed out. Cats began “trembling, being restless and escaping”. The researchers believe that cants may sense quakes ahead of time because they have a wider range of hearing than humans.

Have you ever notice that bees are nowhere in sight before it rains? They sense moisture changes in the atmosphere, causing them to take shelter in their hives before downpours begin. 28. Which kind of animals does a warbler probably belong to?

A. Dogs B. Birds C. Beasts D. Ocean creatures 29. What does the underline word in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Connected with sight B. Linked to hearing C. Related to smell D. Associated with taste 30. How do bees tend to be just before the rain?

A. Busy B. Invisible C. Noisy D. Restless 31. What can be the best title for the text?

A. Animals preventing major natural disasters. B. Animals predicting destroying natural disasters. C. Animals helping people to discover human diseases. D. Animals predicting disasters and discovering diseases.

D

The first self-driving semi-trailer truck called the Actros took its first test drive on a major European highway. This truck , which was designed by the German automobile company Dainler, is not unique in appearance. However, it is equipped with the most advance technology, which attracts the world’s close attention.

The Actros is perhaps the first mass-produced truck whose drive will only be required to watch the vehicle’s movements. The driver will have duties similar to those of an airline pilot while the plane flies in autopilot mode.

Wolfgang Bernhard, head of Daimler’s trucks and buses division, drove the Actros. He let the truck take control of steering , and it could move around other vehicles easily and safely. The Actors reached a speed of 80 kilometers an hour while driving down the busy road. The vehicle was followed by a car equipped with cameras , and a police car was also following in case of an emergency.

“I must follow strict rules. I’m not allowed to turn around or turn the head to the side because I have to monitor the traffic situation all the time. But I can take my hands off the wheel. The steering is sooth and vehicle remains on track,” says Mr. Bernhard.

Radar, many video cameras and sensing devises continually collect information about other vehicles and road conditions. If the driver does not, the truck will slow to a stop by itself.

Daimler says the truck is sure to benefit drivers, especially those on long road trips. There is not doubt that it will greatly reduce the tiredness of driving and traffic accidents. The company hopes German government will pass necessary laws to permit using its self-driving trucks by 2020. 32. What do we know about the Actros?

A. Bernhard first thought of the idea for it. B. The driver can act as an airline pilot does. C. Its average speed is 80 kilometers an hour. D. A police car is needed to lead the way for it. 33. What can the driver of the Actros do? A. Have a sleep

B. Turn the head elsewhere C. Face the opposite direction. D. Drive more easily and safely

34. What can we infer about the Actros？ A. It’s very helpful to the drivers.

B. It has been widely used in Germany.

C. It’s created mainly to watch road conditions. D. It’ll stop when the driver begins to control it. 35. What’s the text mainly about?

A. A new way to avoid traffic accidents. B. Development of self-driving technology.

C. How to become a driver of a self-driving truck D. Drivers can let go of the wheel in the new truck. 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。 Not everyone is a born-party planner, and planning a party can be a huge job.
