Mr. Jenkins liked all kinds of delicious foods. As an important officer,he was often invited to dinner. The shopkeepers tried their best to fawn on (巴結(jié)) him.

 Singapore was just a sleepy city in Southeast Asia more than 50 years ago. But the small dot on the world map has developed into one of the richest nations thanks to its founder and first Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew,the father of the state,who passed away on March 23,2015.

He united Chinese,Indians and Malaysians,making English a common language. He fought corruption (腐敗) and even disallowed chewing gum. That helped changeSingaporefrom a poor city in the 1950s to a world business center with a per capita GDP of about $55,000,reported by the Financial Times.

  Lee left the office of prime minister in 1990 but remained a member of parliament. He resigned as "Minister Mentor" in 2011. He was happy with his work; "I have no regrets. I have spent my life,so much of it,building up this country. There's nothing more that I need to do."

  To the world,Lee was one of Asia's most popular politicians. He was one of the first to say China would develop quickly under a former leader Deng Xiaoping and he contributed to China's reform and opening up. "Not a small number of this and past generations of world leaders have asked for his advice on governance and development," said American President bama.

 In 1900,about 100,000 cheetahs (獵豹) lived in the world. Today there are only 10 ,000. Everyone knows that cheetahs are fast. Some studies have measured (測量) their speed at about 95 kilometers an hour.

  John Wilson took part in the cheetah research. He says cheetahs can easily deal with the energy. They rest for most of the day. And they only have a few periods of activity. For example,a cheetah would only hunt in the morning for a few hours and in the afternoon for a few hours.

  Dr Wilson says the new study finds that it is not really what happens. " Our study has found that cheetahs lose about 12 percent of the food. While they lose quite a bit of their food,cheetahs are pretty fast eaters. So,they've eaten a lot of that food before they use that food. The act of losing food is not so significant (有重大意義的) ."

  The longer they look for food,the more energy they need. And,he says, "That is the problem. ” It takes longer time for cheetahs to find animals they can catch and eat. And they haVe to walk farther to do so. Dr Wilson says it is because they naturally avoid people. Human beings are increasingly occupying the areas where cheetahs traditionally look for food. Houses and fences block them from searching for animals to attack. Cheetahs use up a lot of energy to get around.

  Dr Wilson says that there are no easy solutions to help cheetahs deal with human activities,but fast action is needed.

(   ) 1. The cheetahs are        animals nowadays.

   A. endangered   B. increasing   C. friendly   D. simple

(   ) 2. The cheetahs can run at a speed of         .

   A. 12 km/h   B. 19 km/h   C. 59 km/h   D. 95 km/h

(   ) 3. The underlined word "they" in the third paragraph refers to "         ".

   A. periods   B. cheetahs   C. eaters   D. hunters

(   ) 4. The underlined word "occupying" in the passage means         .

   A. planning   B. giving up   C. noticing   D. taking up

(   ) 5. Which is NOT true according to John Wilson's research?

   A. There are many easy solutions to help cheetahs deal with human activities.

   B. Cheetahs can easily solve the energy and they have simple periods of activity.

   C. Cheetahs are pretty fast eaters and they often lose quite a bit of their food.

   D. Cheetahs have to walk much farther to find animals because they must avoid people.

 Noise pollution is doing much harm to our health now. Noise is a kind of invisible killer. More and more students enjoy listening to music very much. When they listen to MP3 players,they like to turn up the volume (音量) .While watching TV,they keep the volume high. But they haven't realized that the noise is weakening their hearing. In fact,the noise not only influences each member in the family,but also influences the neighbors around.

  ★ If your dog barks when left alone,make sure to leave it with a friend.
