Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1On a cool morning, Wilson Kasa
12、ine walks along a dirt path in southern Kenya. Actually, Kasaine is tracking lions. Particularly, he is tracking one lion called Marti.Tracking lions on foot may sound dangerous, but Kasaine has been doing it for most of his life. Born in a traditional Maasai family, he understood the beauty and ris
13、k of the wildlife. Living with big game forces him to develop a good sense of where animals have been and where they might be going. During his 12-kilometer walks to and from school, he learned how to tell the paw prints of a lion from those of other animals.Growing up, Kasaine knew that improving h
14、is tracking abilities would help him avoid other dangerous animals. But maybe Kasaine didnt know that, years later, he would be tracking lions specifically to encounter them and to protect them. Today he leads a small group of wide-eyed tourists over a red sandy path in the reserve, searching for th
15、e lion that has left upon it his unmistakable prints.Each year, tens of thousands of tourists come to Kenyas national parks to try to visit the “big five: elephants, rhinoceros, leopards, buffaloes, and lions. The attraction of these animals to people all over the world means that the nations econom
16、y is tied to the protection of its wildlife. If Kenyan wildlife disappears, so does its second-largest source of income.Considering the rapid urban development in Kenya, this isnt unimaginable. In 2016, a study shows that many of the nations most treasured species have fallen to less than one-third
17、of their population counting from just 40 years ago. The number of lions fell too. In 1998, the nation was home to over 15,000; only about 2,000 remain today. Several experts have predicted they could disappear entirely from the country in the next two decades.Wildlife protection efforts in Kenya mu
18、st be at the sacrifice of other things. People were forced to leave their land and into smaller surrounding regions. Communities like Kasaines are now finding it increasingly difficult to maintain a traditional Maasai lifestyle. But they are glad that their sacrifice really makes a difference.1、What
19、 did Kasaine learn on his way to school and back home?A. The beauty and risk of the wildlife.B The method of telling different plants.C. The skills of telling different paw prints.D. The lifestyle of a traditional Maasai family.2、What does the underlined word it in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The lion.B
20、. The path.C. The reserve.D. The group.3、Why is Kenya making efforts to protect wildlife?A. To improve the nations economy.B. To offer more jobs to the local people.C. To show the importance of the “big five”.D. To set a good example to other countries.4、What do we know from the fifth paragraph?A. T
21、he lions in Kenya are in danger of dying out.B. The number of species declined seriously in 2016.C. The nations economy is experiencing a very hard period.D. Species in Kenya decreased every year in the recent ten years.5、How does Kasaine feel about his sacrifice?A. Unpleasant.B. Hopeful.C. Doubtful
22、.D. Worthwhile.Text 2Primary schools could be told to remove some traditional subject-based lessons and replace them with personal development classes to encourage children to improve their social and practical skill. Parents, teachers and pupils, who took part in the investigation carried out for t
23、he biggest ever official review of the primary curriculum, argued that the number of subjects taught to very young people should be reduced.The review, being conducted by the governments schools director Sir Jim Rose, will consider how to redesign the primary school day to handle concerns that too m
24、any pupils leave primary school unable to read, write and do maths at the level expected of them. It will also address criticisms that pupils are expected to study so many subjects there is little time for creative learning.The 60 focus groups brought together 1,500 parents, pupils and school staff
25、and is expected to heavily influence the thinking of the Rose review, which the government is promising to back. Instead of a broad range of subjects, pupils should study in-depth literacy and maths lessons alongside a more creative curriculum that encourages pupils to develop personal, learning and
26、 thinking skills, they say. Such lessons might include “healthy lifestyles, sex and relationships education, drugs and alcohol education”.“Child and personal development as priorities have been shamefully neglected in recent years in the rush to hit targets in the basics. John Bangs, head of educati
27、on at the National Union of Teachers, said, “The worst thing would be to evaluate child development through the current high stakes testing system. That would weaken the capacity of teachers to meet childrens unique needs.”However, the shadow schools minister, Nick Gibb, said, If lessons on lifestyl
28、e are given the same status as traditional subjects, it is the most disadvantaged children who will be worst affected. Children are not able to personally develop and succeed in the future if they dont have a grasp of basic subjects such as maths and English early on in primary school. Removing high
29、 requirement from the primary curriculum would increase the inequality gap between less well-off pupils and the rest. Nick added. A spokeswoman fbr the Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) said, This is a summary of stake holders view, not the views of the Qualifications and Curricul
30、um Authority or the DCSF, and has been submitted to Sir Jim Roses review as evidence to consider.”1、According to the focus groups, the result of learning too many subjects is most likely to be that. A. children may not have any freedomB. children may not have enough time to pursue personal interestC
31、. children may not know anything outside the classroomD. children may not have creative ability2、Which of the following is False about the review conducted by Sir Jim Rose?A. It will greatly influence the countrys future primary curriculum.B. To complete it will take more time and efforts.C. It is s
32、upported by the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority or the DCSF.D. It needs to take fully into account varied views from the society.3、 John Bangss attitude towards the current high stakes testing system is.A. negative B. positive C. uncertain D. cautious4、According to Nick Gibb, grasp of basic
33、subjects early on in primary school is important for.A. the primary curriculum reform B. children development in the futureC. learning more basic knowledge D. increasing the childrens confidenceText 3It took me a moment to realize what had happened. Three days had passed and Rita seemed to get weake
34、r and weaker. The rain had stopped. However, the sky was still cloudy, and it was so dark that I couldnt see the buildings even across the road. I took a pressure reading from the weather station: 947mb, which let me know exactly where I was-in the eye of the storm.There were rains and winds still,
35、but not oppressive (难以忍受的)anymore。 There was still no power, hot water or food. Besides, I didnt sleep well for all these days, but I felt more relaxed since the weather report said Rita was leaving. Whats more, I was luckier than those people who had lost their homes or even worse, lost their lives
36、 because of Rita.As I travelled further to the west, going after the storm, the damage along the way became less severe. I arrived in Houston after a tricky journey with my fuel supplies almost all gone. However, I came across another storm chaser (追逐者)who had 45 gallons of petrol. He helped me and
37、we shared our working experience these days. With a complete stroke of luck I found a run-down hotel that allowed me to have a room overnight before the midnight. Although there was no running water, no power and no air conditioning, I curled up into a corner and fell asleep quickly.I woke up the ne
38、xt morning, and what a change! The sky was blue and cars were moving around. Sirens could be heard as convoys (护航队)of emergency managements started to head west towards where I had come from. nThe storm had stopped and I could go home. I gave all my remaining supplies to other people at the hotel an
39、d headed towards the airport. Houston Airport was not damaged, so I took my flight and drank my first hot drink in four days.All in all, when I came back home, I was proud that I finally made it again to follow and record the storm and I really learned a lot these days. Although its dangerous, I lov
40、e my job as not many people would go into the eye of an intense storm. 1、 We can know from the passage that Rita is.A. a petB , a stormC. a friend of the authorD. a citizen in Houston2 What can we infer from the passage?A.

43、ept most of the main credit cards such as Visa, MasterCard and American Express.Hotel Reservations andAccommodationUpon arrival at the airport, please visit its 24-hour hotel reservations counters, which can help get you a room in your preferred hotel.

44、nfirmation.Lost Passport/SingaporeImmigration ServicesShould you lose your passport, we suggest you make a police report, then head to the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority to get a temporary visa.

45、ingTipping is not a common practice in Singapore as most hotels and restaurants include a 10% service charge in the final bill. While tipping is not expected, it is appreciated, be it in restaurants where there is no service charge, or anywhere where excellent service is provided.SmokingIf you are a
