This is the SCIENCE IN THE NEWS, I’m Barbara Klein.
Animal experts say one of the world’s most beautiful and rare kinds of big cat is close to disappearing from the wild. A study earlier this year found that about thirty Amur leopards(豹) still live free. The cats are also called Far Eastern leopards.
Recently, their numbers have been reduced by one. Some person shot a female Amur, then beat her to death. The animal’s body was discovered last month in the Barsovy National Wildlife Refuge in eastern Russia.
An official of the World Wildlife Fund, Darron, said this was the third such killing in the area in the past fives years. Mr. Collins said the death of even one adult female is a huge loss for the endangered cat. He noted that the killing reduces the possibility for cubs(幼獸) or young.
It is not clear how many Amur leopards still live free. One population count was performed in February and March. Wildlife expert Dmitry Pikuuov led this study. It found evidence of seven to nine males. The study identified(確定) three to seven females without cubs. Four leopards were identified as females with cubs. In all, five or six cubs were recorded. Six to eight animals could not be identified.
Most of the land where the Amur leopard once lived was in China. New roads and climate change there threatened(威脅) the animals. So did hunters who kill big cats for their body parts.
Mr. Pikuuov says adult Amurs need about five hundred square kilometers with good forests to survive. He said they also need a large and continuing supply of animals like deer for food. He believes the answer to saving the Amur leopard is for governments to provide protected spaces for wildlife.

Every culture has a recognized point when a child becomes an adult, when rules must be followed and tests passed.
In China, although teenagers can get their ID cards at 16, many only see themselves as an adult when they are 18. In the US, where everyone drives, the main step to the freedom of adult life is learning to drive. At 16, American teens take their driving test. When they have their license, they drive into the grown-up world.
“Nobody wants to ride the cheese bus to school,” said Eleanor Fulham, 17. She brought the pressure back to memory, especially from kids from wealthier families. “It’s like you’re not cool if you don’t have a car,” she said.
According to recent research, 41% of 16 to 19-year-olds in the US own cars, up from 23% in 1985. Although, most of these cars are bought by parents, some teens get part-time jobs to help pay.
Not all families can afford cars for their children. In cities with subways and limited parking, some teenagers don’t want them. But in rich suburban areas without subways, and where bicycles are more for fun than transportation, it is strange for a teenager not to have a car.
But police say 16-year-olds have almost three times more accidents than 18 and 19-year-olds. This has made many parents pause before letting their kids drive.
Julie Sussman, of Virginia, decided that her son Chad, 15, will wait until he is 17 to apply for his learner’s permit.
Chad said he has accepted his parents’ decision, although it has caused some teasing from his friends. “They say that I am unlucky,” he said, “But I’d rather be alive than driving, and I don’t really trust my friends on the road, either.”
In China, as more families get cars, more 18-year-olds learn to drive. Will this become a big step to becoming an adult?
小題1:Which may serve as the BEST title of the article?
A.Cars Helping You to Grow-UpB.Driving into the Grown-Up World
C.Teenagers’ Driving in AmericaD.Recognized Point of Becoming an Adult
小題2:16-year-old drivers have more accidents possibly because           .
A.they want to show themselves offB.they are never experienced drivers
C.older people always drive betterD.they never drive carefully on the road
小題3:Which may NOT be taken into consideration when deciding whether to buy a car?
A.How well off the family is.
B.Whether the kid is old enough.
C.What traffic condition there is around.
D.Whether it’s practically needed.
小題4:When Chad said “I don’t really trust my friends ...”, he meant that           .
A.he might run into his friends if he drove
B.he didn’t agree with his friends
C.he might not be safe if his friends drove
D.he was afraid that his friends might well lie to him
小題5:The passage mainly gives information about           .
A.an American culture
B.a cultural difference between America and China
C.a change in the Chinese culture
D.the relationship between driving and a person’s development

Exchanging music over the Internet is fun and easy. Better yet, it's free, which means you don't have to pay for any more expensive music CDs. Several online file-sharing services make it easy for music lovers to exchange their favorite tunes with one another.
However, this illegal sharing of music — a form of music piracy(盜版)— is doing harm to the music industry. Industry experts estimate (估計) that US$4.3 billion in worldwide sales was lost to music piracy last year. These lost profits could force record companies to stop producing the music of many popular artists. That would hurt both musicians and music fans alike.
Music producers are puzzled about how to fight music piracy. Their efforts to fight piracy using the law have had only limited success. The music industry did win a legal victory against Napster, a famous music website. The courts ordered Napster to stop giving away copyrighted music from their site. But a number of other music-sharing networks have sprung up in its place.
These new networks are made up of thousands, or even millions, of individuals. Unlike Napster, there's no one company controlling the distribution(發(fā)行)of music over each network. So it's nearly impossible to stop the illegal activities.
Now people in the music industry have decided that " if you can't beat them, join them." They've begun to offer legal alternatives to online music piracy. Major music producers have given companies like Apple Computer permission(許可) to sell their music online. Apple's iTune Music Store allows computer users to legally download any song for 99 cents.
Will these new measures save the music industry from piracy? That depends on whether music fans are willing to pay 99 cents fro a song that they can download illegally for free. Unfortunately, many people believe music should be free. The music industry, however, hopes to persuade these music fans to change their tune.
小題1:This text is written to _____.
A.discuss music piracy on the Internet
B.introduce the popularity of online music
C.persuade music fans to give up downloading music
D.protect copyrighted music from being downloaded illegally
小題2:Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.Some online file-sharing services are responsible for music piracy.
B.Napster, a famous music website, broke down because of its piracy.
C.There have been no perfect measures to put an end to piracy.
D.Legal sharing of music is available at Apple's iTune Music Store.
小題3:Which of the following statements would the author agree with?
A.The only effective way to fight music piracy is to stop it by law.
B.Music lovers will be persuaded to pay for online music in time.
C.It is certain that no one will be willing to pay for online music.
D.There is a long way for music industry to go in fighting piracy.
小題4:The underlined word "illegal" in Paragraph 2 probably means _____.
A.being protected by the lawB.popularC.being against the lawD.surprising

What does the word“youth” mean to you? Many define it as a precious time in their life when they are young, when fun, passion, and imagination seem limitless. But for most high school students, youth is a time of determination and willpower for achieving their goals.
This is vividly shown in Mark of Youth, a movie that opened on Feb 5. Mark of Youth tells the story of four Senior 3 students in a top high school in the days leading up to the national college entrance examination.
Each character represents a different type of student, ranging from the most mischievous(調皮的)to the most motivated. Like most teenagers, they enjoy carefree moments and like to talk about their schoolmates. But the tension of the approaching exam, probably their first life-changing event, is common—they must memorize seemingly endless English words and Chinese poems, work through piles of practice test papers, and improve their scores despite the increasing pressure.
But life exists beyond campus. That the college entrance examination is coming up doesn’t mean they can escape family changes, such as when one character’s parents get divorced or another’s father is arrested. Can these four young people handle their problems and eventually make it to their ideal universities despite their on –and –off campus stress?
The story is set in Hubei Huanggang Middle School, known for its students’ outstanding performances on the big exam. The four students are played by the actors who played in the reality shows Happy Boys and Happy Girls. HongKong actor Alex Fong plays their teacher.
Students may look more fashionable in Mark of Youth than in real life, but it is the story about the final year of high school that many viewers relate to.
“The film is very inspiring,” said Senior 2 student Yao Lingqian, 16, from Leshan Foreign Language School in Sichuan province. “A total commitment(投入)to hard work, though it can be lonely and no fun at all, will leave precious marks on my youth.”
And for Senior 3 student Gao Jing, the film has given her optimism. “The characters taught me that what you score is not the only important thing. The way you approach the exam matters the most,” said the 17-year-old from Zhenping County No 1 High School in Nanyang, Henan province.
“The film really reflects senior 3students’life.” Zhang Ping, a teacher from a senior high school in Qingdao, commented.
小題1:What is the function of the first paragraph in the passage?
A.To tell us what the word “youth” means.
B.To introduce what will be mainly talked about.
C.To tell youth is a time of determination and willpower.
D.To introduce some famous actors.
小題2:Why must the four Senior 3 students memorize seemingly endless English words and Chinese poems?
A.They want to enjoy carefree moments.
B.They want to gossip about their schoolmates.
C.They want to work through piles of practice test papers.
D.They want to improve their scores.
小題3:Which of the following is true about the film?
A.Mark of Youth tells a story that happened on Feb 5.
B.The characters in the film have to face the pressure from both study and their families.
C.The film tells a story that really happened in Hubei Huanggang Middle School.
D.Most characters in the film are played by actors from HongKong.
小題4:What kind of belief does the film convey?
A.Youth is a wonderful thing.
B.We youth should face challenge with smile.
C.Entrance examination is very important in our life.
D.The entrance examination isn’t so terrible.
小題5:Which of the person can we see in the film?

One of the speaking rules you need to know might sound strange to most ESL (English as a second language) students, but it is one of the most important rules. If you want to pass examinations, then study grammar. However, if you want to become fluent in English, then you should try to learn English without studying the grammar.
Studying grammar will only slow you down and confuse you. You will think about the rules when creating sentences instead of naturally saying a sentence like a native. Remember that only a small part of English speakers know more than 20% of all the grammar rules. Many ESL students know more grammar than native speakers. I can confidently say this with experience. I am a native English speaker, majored in English Literature, and have been teaching English for more than 10 years. However, many of my students know more details about English grammar than I do. When they sometimes ask me about grammar, I can easily look up the definition(定義) and apply it, but I can’t tell them the answer off the top of my head.
I often ask my native English friends some grammar questions, and only a few of them know the correct answer. However, they are fluent in English and can read, speak, listen, and communicate effectively.
Do you want to be able to recite the definition of a causative verb, or do you want to be able to speak English fluently?
小題1:According to the author, what opinion do most ESL students hold?
A.Grammar matters a lot only in speaking.
B.Grammar doesn’t matter much in speaking.
C.Grammar is very important in English learning.
D.Grammar is not important in English learning.
小題2:What is the author?
A.An ESL student.B.A teacher teaching English natives.
C.A native English student.D.A native English teacher.
小題3:The underlined part “off the top of my head” means         .
A.on purposeB.without consideration
C.after thinkingD.with difficulty
小題4:Which of the following titles best suits the text?
A.Fluency or Grammar? B.Grammar Counts!
C.Exams or No Exams? D.No More Grammar!

In the United States, friends can be close, constant and real. But if they move live far away from each other, little by little, they will not be as close as before. But neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while, then no more. If two people meet again by chance, even years later, they will be delighted and pick up the friendship again.
In America, you can feel free to visit people's homes, share their holidays and enjoy their delicious food. If you are invited to a party, just accept their hospitality(款待) for various reasons, such as crowded space, language difficulties or family customs. It is often considered more friendly to invite a person to one's home than to go to a public place. So, if your host or hostess brings you home, do not feel that you aren’t treated well. You know, strangers are not invited into the home.
Don't feel neglected if you do not find flowers awaiting you in your hotel room either. Flowers are very expensive there, hotel delivery is not certain, and arrival times are often delayed, so flowers are not often sent as a welcoming touch. Please do not feel unwanted! In fact, signs outside change in different lands, but the welcome in the heart is real and valuable.
小題1:You will find friendships _______ in America if they are not near each other.
A.die suddenlyB.come back C.disappear graduallyD.last forever
小題2:The underlined part in the last paragraph can be replaced by “______”.
A. Don’t feel you are paid little attention
B.Don’t accept an invitation quickly
