三、閱讀理解
閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long been accused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.
Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it.
People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy.
It is estimated that up to 100000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of years, people opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is brutal(殘酷的), has risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of confrontation between hunters and hunt saboteurs(阻攔者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the foxs smell, which the dogs follow.
Noisy confrontations between hunters and saboteurs have become so common that they are almost, as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.
21. Whats the cause of the foxes being killed?
A. They are very dangerous to both humans and animals
B. Their fur and meat are of high value
C. Farm animals suffered a lot from foxes attack
D. The number of the foxes is too large
22. What is special about fox hunting in Britain?
A. It involves the use of a deadly poison.
B. It is a costly event which rarely occurs.
C. The hunters have set rules to follow.
D. The hunters have to go through strict training.
23. What is the meaning of the word “confrontation” in paragraph 4?
A. meetingB. disagreement
C. killing __D. negotiation
24. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Fox hunting has caused great damage to the existence of the species.
B. Foxes used to be hunted in great number but now they are likely to receive more protection.
C. Fox is very dangerous that people made law to kill it all.
D. Dog will not be allowed to be used in the hunt of fox.
25. Which of the following statement is true according to the text?
A. People opposed to fox hunting since they feared to be hurt by the animals
B. It will no longer be a smooth process for a hunt to pass off nowadays
C. Foxes in Britain will surely be under protection
D. Those taking part in the hunt of foxes are all rich men
四、讀寫(xiě)任務(wù)

In China some people refer to wild animals as “exotic delicacies”. Those who enjoy eating them do so not just because they enjoy the taste or they want to satisfy their curiosity. Eating wild animals is also a way to show off. Because of this trends growing popularity, many have already started to see it as a profitable business opportunity. This has led to more and more wild animals being killed for consumption purposes. Ultimately, this will speed up many wild animals extinction process.
Proposed legislation to ban the eating of wild animals has sparked a heated debate in south Chinas Guangdong Province where the practice is steeped in centuries of tradition. The proposed law, which follows the success in the fight against SARS, comes amid a national soul-searching over the treatment of animals and attitudes to the natural environment.
During a three-hour public hearing on Tuesday of the draft regulation on improving public health, the clause on “prohibition of the consumption of wild animals” caused heated debate.
The severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) crisis in the first half of the year seriously affected Guangdong and the China Wildlife Conservation Association has written a public letter, appealing for an end to the eating of wild animals.
