2．The students stand on a pier（碼頭） over the Harlem River in New York City.They stare down into the brown water.Their teacher，Mr.Rodman，pulls a long rope out of the river.Fastened to the end of the rope is a metal cage and inside are oysters（牡蠣）.Taking turns，the students measure all the oysters，and then compare notes.The biggest oyster is over 2 inches long，much bigger than a healthy size for its age!They also measure the level of oxygen.As more oysters grow，the water should become clearer and hold more oxygen.Also，other animals should move in.
Oysters are soft-bodied animals，and share the underwater community with plants，fish，and other life.They are food for crabs and other animals.As new oysters grow，they attach their shells to older ones，forming big reefs with many small spaces where other animals live.Oysters eat algae（藻類）.If algae grow too fast，they can decrease oxygen from the water-and even fish need oxygen to breathe!But what happened to the oysters 100 years ago in New York Harbor？Before then，lots of oysters lived in these waters.They were shipped to restaurants around the world.By the early 1900s.jye.ai were eating them faster than they could grow.Pollution was pouring into the waters.The harbor became seriously polluted.Since the 1970s，new laws have helped reduce poisonous waste.Some fish started to swim through again.But oysters were still missing-until recently.
The Billion Oyster Project began in 2014 to help bring oysters back to New York Harbor.The project has recruited（招募） more than 6，500 students at more than 100 middle schools and high schools to help grow，distribute，and study the oysters.
Finally，the students put the oysters back in the cage.Mr.Rodman lowers the cage into the river.In a few months，they will check the cage again.When the oysters are big enough，they will be moved to join a healthy reef in the middle of the harbor.
（1）Why do students come to the pier over the Harlem River？
A．To do research.
B．To go fishing.
C．To buy oysters.
D．To clean up the river.

B．More oysters than before lived in waters in the 1900s.
C．Polluted water was partly to blame for the missing of oysters.
D．New laws in the 1970s were crucial to oysters 'recovery.

3．Introduced species have a bad reputation.It has been believed that the species mix in a particular place should remain as unchanged as possible.But this is just an opinion.Other opinions are possible.A study published recently by Dov Sax of Brown University，thus asks how the benefits of introduced species might be better assessed，so that opinions can be more informed.Specifically，he identifies several aspects for that.
Initially，whether introduced species provide direct human advantage is taken into account.Dr.Sax and his colleagues ignored crops，since their benefits are obvious.But they included transplanted grass species that have gone wild，yet provide grazing（牧草） for domestic animals，and introduced forest trees that produce wood for construction.
Another factor is their possible benefit to the ecosystem into which the introduction has happened.Such introduction is sometimes made to reduce the risk of a localised species becoming extinct.Pyne's ground plum（李子），native to a handful of sites in the central basins of Tennessee but now transplanted to others，falls into this category.
The last value is experienced on an emotional rather than a practical level.Lots of people feelgood about native wildlife，which is generally the main motive for its conservation.But that feel-good factor can extend to introduced species as well.Such value can cut both ways，however.For example，ring-necked parakeets，an Asian and African species，have been spreading through Britain for several decades.Some find them a colourful addition to the local wildlife，others a noisy competitor for native birds.
In light of their analysis，Dr.Sax and his team therefore suggest that researchers studying introduced species should in future create a clear distinction in their studies between changes that have happened and judgments about the value of those changes.In addition，when making those judgments，they should acknowledge all types of values，rather than focusing narrowly on one or two of them.
That done，many species will surely still be accused of possible damage.But others，badly thought of in the past，may not.
（1）What is Dr.Sax's study aimed to do？
A．Keep track of introduced species.
B．Get introduced species fully understood.
C．Compare opinions on introduced species.
D．Identify consequences of introducing species.
（2）Why was Pyne's ground plum transplanted to other places？
A．To provide graze for local animals.
B．To produce wood for construction.
C．To build a new local ecosystem.
D．To save local species from dying out.
（3）How do local people react to the introduction of ring-necked parakeets？
A．They don't care about it.
B．They consider it acceptable.
C．They can't put up with it.
D．They hold divided opinions on it.
（4）What does Dr.Sax suggest to the future researchers？
A．Focusing on main values.
B．Evaluating evident changes.
C．Analyzing previous researches.
D．Presenting all-round assessments.組卷：4引用：1難度：0.3

Zack joined our family two years ago.The first time I saw him in a caring center，he was sitting in a corner，lonely and nervous.When I got closer，he tried to avoid eye contact and forced a smile.I could read his struggles in his eyes.Indeed，Zack was different.He was a kid with inborn disorder that made it difficult to manage his anxiety.I gently put my arms around him.Unexpectedly，he responded by giving me a tighter hug.My heart melt.I couldn't wait to drive Zack home immediately the adoption paper was done.
The life with us was new to Zack.Terrified of insects and always on alert（警戒的） for a storm rolling in，he remained housebound.One March afternoon，we held a family barbecue.Despite my best effort，Zack wouldn't leave the house.I brought him a plate of food and he watched us from the window.I was upset that he couldn't enjoy a few minutes of peace in the spring sun.
Anyway，Zack was a joy around，and we tried to meet all his special needs.We were worried that Zack was delayed at schoolwork and needed to attend a speech and language camp，but he refused to go.I begged，and finally bartered（交換）.
"I'll do it for a pet chicken，" he decided.
That's when Valor，a hen with soft feathers，entered our lives in May.John，my husband，named her Valor，which meant "courage" in ancient English.
No one had expected how the chicken would make a difference，but it did.Once Valor arrived，Zack slowly began stepping out in order to be with her.In turn，we repaid her with treats of tomatoes and sunflower seeds.For some unknown reasons，Valor offered Zack peace and comfort and was content to keep him company wherever he went.To our excitement，Zack talked more and smiled often.He even turned to us with questions about raising pets，making John and me thrilled.
