三、阅读理解
A
Each year, people buy millions of aquarium (水族箱) fish. But somehow most of the fish died within weeks or even within hours after you had bought them. For sure, fish are weak creatures compared to us. It does not mean they died for no reason at all.
Since fish have no body heat, they are sensitive to sudden changes of water temperature. Water PH and water hardness can also affect them if there is a sudden change. Most of the quick deaths of fish are due to shock.
Tap water is not a perfect choice for aquarium fish because of the chlorine (氯) in the tap water, which can kill the fish. So the best way is to just put the tap water in the sun for a few days.
Fish need oxygen in the water. They will die if the oxygen in the aquarium runs out. Several things can cause it to happen. The aquarium is too small, that is, less water means less oxygen. The aquarium is too crowded, for the more fish you have, the more oxygen they need. The temperature is too high, because the higher the water temperature, the less dissolved oxygen.
Overfeeding the fish can cause a digestive (消化的) problem and kill the fish directly. More food than it is needed can also cause water pollution and create more harmful waste which will kill the fish too. Feed the fish only once a day, with no more food than they can eat in less than a minute. In this case, less is better.

You can find house sparrows (麻雀) in most places where there are houses (or other buildings), and in few places where there aren’t. They have a short history in North America. Here are some facts about house sparrows.
The house sparrow was introduced into Brooklyn, New York, in 1851. By 1900 it had spread to the Rocky Mountains. Two more introductions in the early 1870s, in San Francisco and Salt Lake City, aided the bird’s spread throughout the West. House sparrows are now common across all of North America except Alaska and far northern Canada.
The house sparrow takes frequent dust baths. It throws soil and dust over its body feathers, just as if it were bathing with water. In doing so, a sparrow may make a small depression (凹陷) in the ground, and sometimes defends this spot against other sparrows.
The house sparrow prefers to nest in manmade structures such as lower edges of their roofs or walls of buildings, street lights, and nest boxes instead of in natural nest sites such as holes in trees.
House sparrows are social birds and they have a pecking (啄食) order much the way chickens in a farmyard do. You can find out the standings by paying attention to the black throats of the males. Males with larger patches of black tend to be older and dominant over males with less black. By wearing this information on their feathers, sparrows can avoid some fights and thereby save energy.
5．What can we know about house sparrows?
A．They are native to New York.
B．They are a new species of birds.
C．They are foreign to North America.
D．They are seen in all parts of the world.
6．In which place are you least likely to see house sparrows?
A．New York. B．Alaska.
C．San Francisco. D．Canada.
7．Which can replace the underlined words “dominant over” ?
A．surprised at B．curious about
C．popular with D．superior to

Norway is to introduce new ways to protect wild salmon (三文鱼) after experts warned they could become endangered as a result of their contact 1 those raised in ocean farms.
The government has issued a report that shows that fish farms 2 (locate) along the Norwegian shore, with 3 population of more than 6 million farmed salmon, make up a significant risk to the wild salmon population due to crossbreeding and an increase in parasites.
The global number of Atlantic salmon 4 (fall) seriously at present, with its major reasons 5 (range) from overfishing, the spread of salmon lice, to habitat destruction.
6 is reported, only about 3 million wild salmon remain in the Atlantic, down from more than 8 million in the 1980s. Vedeler Nilsen, an adviser in Norway’s environment ministry, said, “Farmed salmon have developed with characteristics that are 7 (benefit) to aquaculture (渔业) such as faster growth and shorter time to become mature. 8 , they lose other characteristics in the process. When an escaped salmon breeds with wild populations, the offspring (后代) might have a lower chance of 9 (survive).”
While the Norwegian project focuses on the immediate need to separate salmon species, other long-term plans, such as recovering the habitats, also make a big difference to salmon’s environment that 10 (destroy) years ago due to a huge blank for fishery management.
