"I have a huge imagination and I'm constantly asking，what about this？What about that？" he says.

3．Polar bear mothers invest a huge amount into their cubs （幼獸），isolating themselves in dens（獸穴）dug with great effort into piles of snow to provide care through the unforgiving conditions of Arctic winter.It's little wonder that the bears are hesitant to leave when disturbed，even when oil drilling equipment is in operation nearby.
"We found that bears wouldn't abandon their dens even with vehicles driving right overhead，" says Wesley Larson，who worked his way from office assistant to a graduate student position with Utah's Brigham Young University，monitoring polar bears on Alaska's North Slope.
Scientists have recorded an increase in human-wildlife conflict in the area，as offshore pack ice has decreased，forcing the bear population to create their dens closer to petrol industry activity.With increased industry interest in oil and gas leasing （租賃）in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge，strong evidence to help support and carry out protective measures for the species has never been more important.
Wildlife managers in Alaska depend on a rule that industrial activity and research cannot take place within 1.6 km of a den with newborn babies in it.Working with 15 years of monitoring records，and 30 years of notes concerning interactions between the industry and the bears，Larson and colleagues were able to confirm that the regulation was sufficient，but that more needed to be done to actively locate dens.He explains that with entrances quickly covered by snow and dens closed-up until spring，they are effectively undetectable to the naked eye.
"While technology such as forward-looking infrared cameras can be used to try to pick up a heat signature inside the den，it only works when conditions are perfect，and they rarely are in Arctic winter，" says Larson.He is now consulting on a project using radar technology to identify dens and ensure protection for the animals symbolic of the Arctic.
（1）Why does the author mention polar bear mothers in paragraph 1？
A．To attract sympathy for the polar bears.
B．To condemn human activities that damage nature.
C．To show the severe environment polar bears live in.
D．To explain polar bears' unwillingness to leave their dens.
（2）What can be inferred from paragraph 3？
A．Pursuit of economic interest threatens polar bears' existence.
B．Protective measures were not considered important in the past.
C．Human activities have led to the reduction of offshore pack ice.
D．The development of petrol industry has forced the bears to leave.
（3）What is Larson's attitude towards the regulation of human activities in Alaska？
A．Approving.
B．Critical.
C．Worried.
D．Hopeful.
（4）What is the main idea of the text？
A．Attention should be paid to protecting polar bears.
B．Technology should be applied to identify polar bears.
C．More efforts are necessary to monitor polar bear dens.
D．It's very difficult to successfully locate polar bear dens.組卷：13引用：3難度：0.5

9．It all started at lunch.Someone asked Maria，a girl in my class，if she wanted a piece of pie.But because she's allergic（過敏） to wheat，she can't eat pie.Everyone was sympathetic.Then I said I was allergic to bananas.At first，everyone stared at me like I was from another planet.So，for the next ten minutes，I had to listen to all sorts of silly jokes about what bad luck I have because I can't eat bananas.
Later，when my friend Joe and I were walking home，he began to laugh about the incident at lunch.I complained that if I was going to be allergic to something，at least it should be something I hated.
"Like what？" he asked. "Well，like... "I began，making a face， "maybe broccoli（西蘭花） . "Joe laughed.Then he started clowning around，pretending that he was me eating broccoli. "Oh，oh， "he groaned，scratching（撓癢） himself. "I itch（發(fā)癢） everywhere!" When I got home，I smelled something delicious. "What smells so good，Mom？" I called out.My mother replied， "It's dinner.I found a new recipe I think you'll like. " After setting the table，I called my younger brother and sister.We all sat down，and Mom spooned out the vegetable.When I saw what it was，shock set in，and I was speechless.
Mom said， "Luis，eat!It's broccoli with beans. " I couldn't move.She said again， "Luis，eat.You know the rule. "
Mom had the rule that we had to eat everything on our plate，or we couldn't have dessert usually my favorite ice cream.I picked up my fork，took a tiny bit，and put it to my mouth.I put the fork down again.I thought of Joe's crazy act and started scratching myself—slowly at first and then faster and faster.My brother and sister looked at me suspiciously.
"Luis，what's going on？" Mom asked.I said， "Mom，I think I'm allergic to broccoli. " "Really？" she asked.I nodded，and she studied me for a moment.Then she said， "I just read an article in a health magazine.It tells parents what to do when their kids show sudden allergies to broccoli.Let me get the cure. "
