A five-year-old dog named Kelsey has been praised as a hero for helping to save the life of her owner who slipped in the snow and broke his neck.

For over a century, native Asian honeybees have been steadily pushed aside by the European species, which were introduced to China by beekeepers because the female workers are more focused on their job and produce more honey, which is also sweeter.
However, the European species also carries a number of deadly diseases that can damage the natural habitat. Some researchers calculate that up to 80 per cent of China native honeybee population has been lost since the first European bee farm in the country was established in the late 19th century.
The sweeping expansion of Asia's European honeybee population causes an ecological Crisis. After more than 70 million years of evolution, native Asian honeybees could pollinate(对……授粉)a wide range of plant species in the region. However, many Asian bee species across the region are now close extinction,And that's a cause for concern as the flowers of many Asian plants are not recognized by European honeybees, which will cause fundamental changes in the ecological balance.
A solution put forward by bee scientists was to draw a border between European and

Asian honeybees. In some parts of China, bee farms are not allowed to use the European species, giving the native bees some breathing space.
After years of decline, the Eastern honeybees are gaining a foothold, especially in mountains and warm, tropical areas. It is because they can deal with the real hardship of life. The Western honeybees, on the contrary, rely very much on the protection and care of humans. Without caretakers, they have little chance to survive in Asia, where hornets(大黄蜂) alone could wipe them out.
The decline of Asian honeybees was alarming because of their important role in the food chain. Fewer bees mean fewer plants, fewer plants less food and less food fewer humans. We must take positive, sustainable steps towards protecting China's Asian honeybees. 28. What made China’s native honeybees endangered?
A. Introduction of European bees B. Overdevelopment of the land. C. Pollution from cars and factories. D. Lack of a variety of plant species. 29. What can be inferred about many Asian plants from the third paragraph?
A. They will not flower. 30. What is basically typical of China’s honeybees?
A. Adaptable. B. Aggressive. C. Sociable D. Productive
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A To analyse influence of European bees B. To urge protection of native Asian bees
C. To suggest ways of limiting European bees D. To introduce comeback of native Asian bees

We are the products of evolution, and not just evolution that occurred billions of years ago. As scientists look deeper into our genes(基因),they are finding examples human evolution in just the past thousand years. People in Ethiopian highlands have adapted to living at high altitudes. Cattle-raising people in East Africa and northern Europe have gained a mutation(突变) that helps them digest milk as adults.
On Thursday in an article published in Cell, a team of researchers reported a new kind adaptation--not to air or to food, but to the ocean. A group of sea-dwelling people in Southeast Asia have evolved into better divers. The Bajau, as these people are known, number in the hundreds of thousands in Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines. They have traditionally lived on houseboats; in recent times, they've also built houses on stilts(支柱)in coastal waters.

B. They might not be pollinated.
C. They might grow slowly. D. They will harm the environment.
“They are simply a stranger to the land, \Rodney C. Jubilado, a University of Hawaii researcher who studies the Bajau.
Dr. Jubilado first met the Bajau while growing up on Samal Island in the Philippines. They made a living as divers, spearfishing or harvesting shellfish. \they could stay underwater much longer than us local islanders,” Dr. Jubilado said “I could see them actually walking under the sea.”
In 2015, Melissa llardo, then a graduate student in genetics at the University of Copenhagen, heard about the Bajau. She wondered if centuries of diving could have led to the evolution of physical characteristics that made the task easier for them. “It seemed like the perfect chance for natural selection to act on a population,” said Dr. llardo. She also said there were likely a number of other genes that help the Bajau dive.
32. What does the author want to tell us by the examples in paragraph 1?
A. Environmental adaptation of cattle raisers. B. Significance of food selection. C. Recent findings of human origin. D. New knowledge of human evolution. 33. Where do the Bajau build their houses?
A. In valleys B. Near rivers C. Off the coast D. On the beach 34. Why was the young Jubilado astonished at the Bajau?
A. They could walk on stilts all day. B. They could stay long underwater. C. They had a superb way of fishing. D. They lived on both land and water 35. What can be a suitable title for the texts?
A. Bodies remodeled for a Life at Sea B. Highlanders' Survival Skills C. Basic Methods of Genetic Research D. The World's Best Divers 第二节(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)

Some individuals are born with a gift for public speaking 36 Do you want to be a good public speaker? Here are some principles you must master.
People want to listen to someone who is interesting, relaxed and comfortable. Too often, when you stand up to give a speech, you focus on the “public” at the expense of the “speaking.” 37 Focus on the speaking. Talk directly to your audience, be yourself and make a connection.
Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes. Yet, the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking. People's attention wanders constantly. In fact, most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker's message. So, don't stop speaking
