In today's world of modern science and medicine, a more traditional treatment is once again becoming popular—animal friendship.

It is now well－known that people with problems such as heart disease or cancer live longer and get better more quickly if they have pets. Keeping pets reduces blood pressure and makes people less worried. Animals are increasingly important in treating older people who have memory loss and other brain problems. These people often feel nervous and upset. Activities with animals help them improve their physical condition and also give them joy, amusement and caring friendship.

Here is a case that shows the benefits of animals. John was a six­year­old mute. He had no physical problems. He just refused to talk. His older cousin, Ned, had a parrot (鹦鹉) called Sally, and John used to visit it. When he arrived, Ned used to say,  “Hi, John！” We all know parrots copy what they hear. After a few visits, Sally began saying “Hi, John！” when John came into the room. Then, one day, John turned to the parrot and replied “Hi, Sally！” Staying with the parrot encouraged John to begin talking.

Another use of animal helpers is in schools. In some cases, animals are used to help children with physical or personal problems. In other cases, they are used to teach children to get on well and share with others, and even to teach them about animals.

If you want to know more about animal helper programs, you can get in touch with organizations like Riding for the Disabled or do a search under “animal therapy” on the Internet. You don't have to be an animal trainer or a doctor to join in.

1．Which is NOT mentioned as an illness that animals can help with?

C．Heart disease.   D．Blood pressure.

2．The underlined word “mute” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “________”．

B．They can improve children's memory.

C．They can increase children's blood pressure.

D．They can teach children the value of sharing.

4．Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?

Paul Nicklen waited patiently on a piece of ice in the Arctic (北极). He was there to take pictures for National Geography. Finally, he saw something big and white. It was a polar bear, swimming towards him in the icy water.

Paul lay down on the ice to get a better photo, but the polar bear jumped out of the water and tried to attack (攻击) him！Luckily for Paul,  the ice cracked, or broke, and the bear fell back into the water. The polar bear wasn't so lucky. It couldn't get a meal and had to swim farther away to find food.

To understand the polar bear's problem, you need to know two things about the Arctic. First, the Arctic is mostly ocean. Second, ice covers a lot of the Arctic Ocean. In winter, the ice forms (组成) a thick, white sheet, but in summer, the ice becomes thinner and breaks into pieces. Sea ice is the key to survival (生存) for Arctic animals. However, because of global warming, Arctic temperatures are rising and polar ice is melting.

Polar bears need ice to hunt seals (海豹), their favorite meal. They stand on the ice and wait for the seals to come up for air. As Arctic ice melts, polar bears have to swim farther to find ice floes (冰川), or large pieces of floating ice. Sometimes, bears have to swim more than 200 km to find ice floe. Some bears cannot swim that far and sadly, they drown (淹死)．

On his last trip, Paul Nicklen saw three dead bodies of polar bears. Before global (全球的) warming threatened Arctic ice, a dead bear was a rare (罕见的) sight. Paul is sad to see the dead bodies. Wildlife experts (专家) think global warming will have a terrible influence on polar bears. In the future，polar ice will continue to shrink (缩小) and endanger the bears. Some scientists believe 65 percent of the world's polar bears will disappear by 2050. In other words, polar bears are in great danger.

5．According to the passage, polar bears hunt seals by ________.

A．waiting on the ice

B．waiting in the water

C．drowning the seals

D．fighting with the seals

6．The underlined word melting in the third paragraph means “________”  in Chinese.

A．融化   B．冰冻

C．结冰   D．加厚

7．We can infer (推测) that polar bears ________.

A．won't have any food

B．will all die before 2050

C．cannot find food easily

D．don't like to swim

8．If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?

A．①；②③④；⑤    B．①②；③④；⑤

C．①②；③；④⑤    D．①；②③；④⑤
