Pandas are actually called giant pandas. Many people also call them panda bears because they are mammals (哺乳类) classified from the bear family. Giant pandas originate in China. Pictures of both the dragon and the giant panda are often regarded as the symbols of China.
Giant pandas look different from other bears because they are white with black patches around their eyes, over their ears, and across their bodies. Although they look adorable and move slow, they can be as dangerous as any other bear when they are angry. Pandas mostly eat bamboo, but they may also eat other food like eggs, fish, oranges and bananas.
Many people think that giant pandas have few babies, and that is one of the reasons that there are not many of them left. But scientists say that a female panda may have about five or six cubs during her life. The female panda gives birth to one or two panda cubs, but she is only able to take care of only one of her cubs. As a result, one of her cubs dies soon after birth because of a lack of intense care.
The giant panda is an endangered species, and there are only about 2,000 giant pandas left in the world. People have been trying hard to protect giant pandas. It looks like their work is paying off because the number of giant pandas is increasing.

举一反三
Many Chinese cities now face the same sort of problem with air pollution that London faced 40 or 50 years ago. However, this problem is more difficult for Chinese cities to solve. One reason is that more of the pollution comes from the factories, rather than from coal burnt in people’s houses. If these factories were closed, this would harm the economy and lots of people would lose their jobs. Another reason is that changing from coal to cleaner fuel (燃料), like gas, is quite expensive.
However, the air in many Chinese cities is becoming cleaner and cleaner, as the government and people pay more and more attention to cutting down pollution. As a result, there are fewer “pea-soupers” in Beijing than there used to be.
小题1:What was the main reason for air pollution in London?
| A．There was too much smoke in the sky. |
| B．There were too many factories in the city. |
| C．People burnt too much coal in the houses. |
| D．The city was too big for the cleaners to clean. |
| A．There was not so much fog in the winter later. |
| B．A law was made to keep people from burning coal in their houses. |
| C．Many factories in the city were closed. |
| D．People paid more attention to cleaning their city. |
| A．Smog. | B．Smoke. | C．Gas. | D．Coal. |
| A．one | B．two | C．three | D．four |
| A．Air pollution is serious in Beijing and Chongqing. |
| B．Using coal is much more expensive than using gas. |
| C．Factories made much more pollution in China. |
| D．The reasons of air pollution in London and Beijing are different. |
Most of our crash goes to places called landfills. A LANDFILL is a low area of land that is filled with garbage（垃圾）.Most modern landfills are lined with a cover of plastic to keep dangerous liquids（液体）from polluting earth and ground water supply. The problem is that more than half of the states in this country are running out of places to landfill their garbage. Because of the unhealthy materials, landfills do not make good neighbors，and people don’t want to live near them. Many landfills are set in poor neighborhoods.
The Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island, New York, was the largest garbage landfill in the world. For years, people who live nearby complained about air and water pollution caused by the enormous pile of trash. They say that the smoke have made people sick. The landfill closed in
April 2001.Now can a harmful waste—material that can pollute air, land, and water –be disposed of in a safe way.
Another way to get rid of trash is to burn it. Trash is burned in an incinerator._ Because incinerators in operation can get rid of almost all of the trash, some communities would rather use incinerators than landfills. There is a problem, though. Leftover ash and smoke from burning trash may have dangerous chemicals, and even make it hard for some people to breathe. They can harm plants, animals, and people.
You can help reduce（减少）waste by reusing bottles, batteries, and paper. You can also recycle newspaper, glass, and plastics t to provide materials for making other products.
From recycled materials, many things are made. For example, from recycled paper we can get newspapers, boxes and so on. From recycled plastic we can get soda bottles, tables, and backpacks.
小题1:Why don’t landfills make good neighbors?
| A．Because there are unhealthy materials in them. |
| B．Because people prefer to live in the city center. |
| C．Because landfills are not big enough for trash. |
| D．Because most states are running out of places. |
| A．An area to collect trash. | B．A machine to burn trash |
| C．A method that is used to burn trash. | D．A station that is run by selling trash. |
| A．How Is Trash Burned? | B．What Can Be Reused. |
| C．Why Is Waste Dangerous? | D．Where Does Garbage Go? |
Ants may be very tinny, but they’re serious eaters! Ants love a picnic and they have their “ant-picnics”.
Favorite Foods
Want to find out what the ants like to eat? Place different foods on the edge of an upside-down plate. You can use butter, honey or seeds. Put this feeding station in the places where there are lots of ants. Wait three minutes and count the number of ants feeding on each food. Count them every three minutes. Watch and find out!
Do ants prefer sweet foods or less sweet ones? Here’s test: Give ants a choice between full-strength honey and a honey-water mixture. Offer a few drops of each choice side-by-side. Then count the number of ants you see near each site every three minutes.
How Far Will They Go?
Want to see how far ants travel to collect food? First find an ant nest(巢) by following some ants when they carry food home. Now you know how far the ants traveled to your food station. Next, move the food station about one foot (30cm) farther. Keep moving it until the ants no longer show up.
Spreading the News
Once ants find food they like, usually they try to get their nestmates to help. To find out how long it takes an ant to tell others there’s food nearby, offer their favorite food and watch. After the first ant finds it, begin counting the ants at the food station every minute. Also, watch their behavior, when the first ant heads home, what does it do when it gets near other nestmates?

This is not the only example of a crash in which everyone but a child died. A 12-year-old girl was the only person to survive a 2009 air crash in the Indian Ocean. When a plane crashed over Sudan in 2003, only a 3-year-old boy survived.
It"s a question that leaves safety experts puzzled. So farthere is not enoughhard evidence forthem to answer withany certainty.
Although unclear, there arereasons to suggestthat children maycope (应对) better than others.
Professor Ed Galea at the University of Greenwich, suggested children would be cocooned(被紧紧抱住) within their seat and therefore might be less probably to receive injuries.
"With an adult with their head above the seat and legs on the floor, they will receive some kind of injury landing on your head and legs," he told the BBC.
"It would be miraculous (奇迹的) to survive that, but there have been cases(情况) of people falling into trees. A smaller body would mean it"s more possible the tree would break your fall," he explained.
Studies found other factors (因素), besides luck, influence the chances of surviving a crash.
One is seating. A study of plane crashed conducted by Poplar Mechanics found that people sitting toward the back of the plane were more probably to survive than those sitting toward the front. A survey conducted by researchers at the University of Greenwich in the UK found that what matters most is how close you are to an exit(出口). Sit in five rows(排) of an exit, and you"ve got better-than-even chances of surviving. Sit in six rows or more away, and your chances are less than 50-50.
Other factors for surviving a plane crash include wearing a seat belt, paying attention to flight instructions and staying alert(警觉) during taking off and landing. And of course, don"t fly with airlines that are the most pobably to crash.
