26、All over the world, thousands of animals are used for wildlife tourism. People travel to watch monkey shows, hug baby tigers and swim with dolphins. It might look like fun, but there are reports that animals are hurt now and again. The World Animal Protection(WAP) says that up to 550,000 wild animals are exposed (暴露) to ill treatment around the world. In Cambodia, for example, it’s been reported that elephants have died after carrying tourists for long in hot weather. This is getting attention—over 100 travel companies have promised that they will no longer open up such places. However, some people argue that animal tourism isn’t always as bad as it seems. So what do you think?
Group Yes | Group No |
Animals weren’t put on this planet for entertainment. They should be free to live. The way animals are treated now is often cruel and causes much pain. Even if treated well, they cannot act in the same way as they would in the wild. We don’t need wildlife tourism. We can see animals close up in their natural home in TV programmes. There’s no need to disturb them in their real lives. | It is enjoyable and educational for people to communicate with animals. The more people know about them, the more they want to protect them. Wildlife tourism brings money to poor areas and may be the only way for some people to make a living. Not all animals are treated badly. Some endangered animals are under the protection of programs that look after rare species(稀有物种). |
【1】According to WAP, about 550,000 wild animals _________.
A.have disappeared
B.are badly ill
C.have died because of hot weather
D.are facing bad treatment
【2】The underlined words “such places” refer to the places for _________.
A.foreign travelers
B.sick elephants
C.wildlife protection
D.animal tourism
【3】What opinion do the two groups have in common?
A.Animals can live wherever they like.
B.Wildlife should be protected.
C.Animal tourism supports poor people.
D.Wildlife is well looked after.
【4】“Group Yes” suggests that people should not disturb animals _________.
A.in Cambodia
B.in travel companies
C.in real life
D.in poor areas
【5】What is the passage mainly about?
A.Ways of protecting rare species.
B.Different opinions on wildlife tourism.

27、 It was Mother’s Day. John was so busy with his work that he couldn’t go back home. When he passed by a flower shop in the evening, an idea came to his mind. “I’ll send Mum some roses (玫瑰).”
While John was picking his flowers, a young man went inside. “How many roses can I get for only five dollars, Madam?” he asked. The salesgirl told him roses were as expensive as forty dollars a dozen (一打). Maybe he would be happy with carnations(康乃馨). She told him they were much cheaper than roses.
“No, I have to have red roses,” he said, “My mum was badly ill last year and I didn’t spend much time with her. Now I want to get something special. It has to be roses. Roses are her favorite.”
After hearing this, John said he would pay the rest of the money for the young man.

Then John paid for his dozen of roses and told the salesgirl to send them to his mother.
As he walked out, he felt nice. Suddenly he saw the young man crossing the street and going into a park. But soon he realized it was not a park but a cemetery(墓地).
