2． The first time a tortoise walked through my hut at Middle Camp on Aldabra Atoll，I was amazed.I grabbed my camera and carefully positioned myself to take this wildlife encounter.The second time：same thing.The third time：I picked up my phone and took a snapshot.By the fourth or fifth time，I didn't even look when I felt something bump into me.I knew what it was.
I was there to shoot a story about island restoration in the Seychelles，far off the east coast of Africa in the Indian Ocean.Until roughly the middle of the past century，the small island nation showed signs of real environmental killing — local vegetation — cleared to make way for coconut plantations，foreign rats and mice running uncontrolled，native sea turtles and giant tortoises being exploited.Biodiversity seemed destroyed.But then the country experienced a shift in conservation awareness — and the giant Aldabra tortoises are among its most visible signs.
Every morning when I woke up and walked outside the hut，I had to remind myself that I hadn't traveled back in time.I could see flightless Aldabra rails，coconut crabs the size of dinner plates，and giant tortoises — roughly four feet long and weighing up to 550 pounds — just wandering around.The number of sharks in the bay was crazy.Frigatebirds and boobies （鰹鳥） nested in the mangroves （a kind of tree）.When we left our hut doors open，which we often did to let in air，the tortoises would walk right through.
In the late afternoon or early evening，whenever they'd finished eating，the tortoises would drop themselves down and fall asleep with their heads outstretched.That made nighttime trips to the outhouse perilous.To get there，we'd have to go 200 feet into the mangroves，negotiating what I called the tortoise slalom trail.
It was a track without a pattern，because of course they picked different places to sleep every night.Avoiding them was important：Falling headfirst over a tortoise onto the sharp coral rock could lead to serious injury on an island far from medical facilities.
Nothing was easy on Aldabra，and much of it was insanely difficult.Yet living among the tortoises in this primordial place，in one of the last spots where reptiles still rule，was one of the happiest times of my life.

A．To stress the importance of their work.
B．To introduce how large the tortoises are.
C．To present his daily routine on the island.
D．To show how the wildlife is diverse on the island.
（4）What might be the suitable title for this passage？

C．Tortoises rule on this isolated island again.
D．Efforts are made to protect the environment.組卷：23引用：5難度：0.3 -
3． A child's early years of language development are important for the basics of school readiness，such as literacy （讀寫） skills and social and emotional growth.In a recent study，University of Miami Assistant Professor of Psychology Lynn Perry and a team of fellow researchers who examined child speech communications over the course of a year found that children benefit from conversations with their peers （同齡人） and their teachers.The study examined how language use and development in 2-and 3-year-old children was influenced by what they heard from their teachers and their peers.
"Previous research on language development looked mostly at the role of parent-child communication within a home setting or a lab environment，which means we're missing a big part of a child's everyday life — the classroom，" said Perry. "We know that parent language is important for children's development and their academic achievement，but we don't have much research on what happens in the kindergarten or preschool setting."
Using a device （設(shè)備） called a Language Environment Analysis （LENA） recorder，Perry collected hundreds of hours of audio recordings.Children wore the LENA recorder once a week.LENA software then assessed whether the recorded audio was speech or not，and whether the speech came from the child wearing the recorder or from an adult or another child talking to them.
After studying the audio data，Perry found that the speech children heard from other children was positively related to their own language use，meaning children who heard the most from their peers learn more new words and vocalize more during the course of the year.Additionally，there was a positive association between a teacher talking and children's language use and development — but only when that teacher talked to the child in a back-and-forth conversation，rather than just talking to the child with no opportunity for the child to respond.
"One important aspect of the study that stands out to me is how important it was to see those conversational turns with teachers，and that back-and-forth conversation with the child is very beneficial.We talked to the teachers about the results，and they are very excited about this finding and currently brainstorming additional opportunities to have conversations with children，" adds Perry.
（1）What does the new study focus on？
A．The basics of school readiness for preschool children.
B．The parent-child communication at home or in the lab.
C．The influence of conversations in the kindergarten on children.
D．The ways to improve preschool children's healthy growth.
（2）How did the researchers perform their new study？
A．By observing the children in class .
B．By conducting a survey of teachers.
C．By communicating with the children.
D．By recording the children's speech in class.
（3）What does the underlined word "vocalize" in paragraph 4 mean？
A．Listen.
B．Speak.
C．Read.
D．Write.
（4）What do teachers plan to do to develop children's speech ability according to the text？
A．Have more back -and- forth conversations with children.
B．Encourage children to listen more to their own speech.
C．Inform parents of the importance of conversational turns.
D．Add more brainstorming activities to their daily teaching.組卷：15引用：4難度：0.3

9．Sara Savick remembers one special Easter when she was nine years old.Her parents gave her a baby duckling in a yellow basket.
"Mom said later that she bought the little duck because she felt sorry for it，" recalled Sara.The people at the pet store colored the feathers pink for Easter.Sara named the duck Pinky.
Sara's mother really didn't think the baby duck would survive very long.But to her surprise，Pinky grew and got stronger and stronger.Soon，the little duckling was a healthy，hungry duck with white feathers.
"We fed Pinky oatmeal，cooked and uncooked，and small pieces of vegetables，" said Sara.Pinky lived inside the house with Sara and her family.She specially fancied taking baths with Sara.Everyone treated Pinky as a family member.
But just when everything appeared to be perfect，the night of the "talk" came.Sara's Mom and Dad sat her down，explaining that the best thing for Pinky was to live a normal duck life，with other ducks.It was not natural for ducks to live indoors with a family，her father told jye.air.He added Pinky needed to swim in ponds and do all the same things that ducks in the wild do.
Sara started to cry，knowing what was going to happen.Sara's parents decided to take Pinky to a park，which was two miles away.There was a pond with a lot of other ducks.Pinky would have the chance to live a natural life and Sara could still visit her.
The big day came.Sara and her parents put Pinky in a box and drove to the park.Sara said that Pinky did not look happy；maybe Pinky was convinced that she was a human，not a duck.
注意：
1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右；
2．請按如下格式作答。
Everyone was sad when they left Pinky at the pond，even Sara's father.
The next morning，when looking out of the kitchen window，Sara couldn't believe her eyes！組卷：15引用：3難度：0.5
