第二部分 阅读理解（满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
21．（6分）As kids, my friends and I spent a lot of time out in the woods. “The woods” was our part-time address, destination, purpose, and excuse. If I went to a friend’s house and found him not at home, his mother might say, “Oh, he’s out in the woods,” with a tone (语气) of airy acceptance. It’s similar to the tone people sometimes use now a days to tell me that someone I’m looking for is on the golf course or at the gym, or even “away from his desk”. For us ten-year-olds, “being out in the woods” was just an excuse to do whatever we feel like for awhile.
We sometimes told ourselves that what we were doing in the woods was exploring (探索). Exploring was a more popular idea back then than it is today. History seemed to be mostly about explorers. Our explorations, though seemed to have less system than the historic kind something usually came up along the way. Say we stayed in the woods, throwing rocks, shooting frogs, picking blackberries, digging in what we were briefly persuaded was an Indian burial mound.
Often we got “lost” and had to climb a tree to find out where we were. If you read a story in which someone does that successfully, be skeptical; the topmost branches are usually too skinny to hold weight, and we could never climb high enough to see anything except other trees. There were four or five trees that we visited regularly-tall beeches easy to climb and comfortable to sit in.
It was in a tree, too, that our days of fooling around in the woods came to an end. By then some of us has reached seventh grade and had begun the rough ride of adolescence (青春期). In March, the month when we usually took to the woods again after winter, two friends and I set out to go exploring. We climbed a tree, and all of a sudden it occurred to all three of us at the same time that we really were rather big to be up in a tree. Soon there would be the spring dances on Friday evenings in the high school cafeteria.

22．（8分） Are you afraid of sharks? What about snakes or spiders? Put those fears aside: because in the U.S. you’re far more likely to be killed or injured by a deer skipping across the road.
Deer cause more than 200 humans deaths each year, plus some 29,000 injuries, all because of 1.2 million collisions between vehicles and deer. Most incidents occur in the eastern U.S., where deer prosper without natural predators like wolves and mountain lions.
“That’s the region in the U.S. where deer-vehicle collisions are such a problem, and where it seems like an effective large carnivore reintroduction could make a really big difference.” says wildlife biologist Laura Prugh from University of Washington. She thinks it would help to reintroduce predators like mountain lions, also known as cougars, pumas or panthers, to parts of their historic range from which they’ve been driven out.
The researchers say that bringing the predators back to the eastern U.S. would mean 22 percent fewer collisions between cars and deer over three decades. Each year would see five fewer human deaths, 680 fewer injuries and a savings of some 550 million. Sophie L. Gilbert thinks there are great socioeconomic benefits of large predator restoration through reduced wildlife-vehicle collisions and she says, says, “Cougars have shown that they can coexist in short distance with people, with very few conflicts, in a lot of areas out west.”
Still, some folks might be understandably nervous about this kind of plan. After all, reintroducing predators doesn’t come without risks to pets and to livestock, and very occasionally to people.
“Our fear of large predators is so natural and intense that I don’t think it’s possible to just completely clear it with statistics... What I hope is that knowing that there actually can be some measurable benefits might make people a little more supportive and maybe balance that fear a little bit.” says Laura.
Indeed, the statistics show that cougars would prevent five times as many human deaths from deer-related accidents as they would cause by attacks. But it’ll be a tough sell: the press will cover cougar attacks, but a statistically prevented death does not make the news. Nevertheless, “If people in the west can put up with having mountain lions around, I would hope that New Yorkers would be up for the challenge as well.”
1、What is closest in meaning to the underlined word “carnivore” in Paragraph 3?
A．A cat-like animal.
B．A dangerous animal.
C．A meat-eating animal.
D．A grass-eating animal.
2、Why do people want to bring back mountain lions?
A．To minimize the accidents caused by deer.
B．To maintain biodiversity and ecological balance.
C．To take up the challenge from people in the west.
D．To reduce people’s fear of this dangerous creature.
3、Why is it hard to persuade people to accept this measure?
A．Because the risks outweigh the benefits.
B．Because mountains lions like eating people.
C．Because the benefits are not as eye-catching as its risks.
D．Because mountain lions tend to get too close to people.
4、What is the best title for the text?
A．Puma: a Tough Sell
B．A New Study on Puma
C．Deer Cause Huge Life Losses
D．Deer or Pumas: a Hard Choice

24．（8分）It could have been any of us, but it happened to be me. I received a brief 18-months of undivided attention and love as the only child, before three more appeared. The second was a severe blow. No doubt, learning the need to share was important, but I had tasted the life of an only child.
Then came years of requests to look after the siblings(兄弟姐妹), being urged that, you should be setting a better example, “Again and again the others got away with doing wrong but I didn’t. We each played our roles; the second one who later skipped school to meet boys; the ever so attractive third, the boy who could do no wrong; and finally the surprise appearance of the fourth, seemed certain to be spoiled even now. So that left me: the reasonable, quiet one who got the grades, did the housework and became a chameleon(变色龙)—skilled at reading a situation and being what was needed.
Then eventually came the chance to be the first to leave and experience life on the outside, not defined(定义) as the eldest. The moment I had waited for. But now, many years later, being the eldest matters again. It’s down to me; it seems, to take the lead in caring for our parents. All the time I was made to learn about sharing; however, when it comes to responsibility, it no longer seems to apply. The others are too busy, too far away, or too unconcerned. So dutifully I travel many times across the country for hours to provide care and support. Requests to my siblings to help out more fall on deaf ears. To me, the dutiful first born, it feels like the right and only thing to do; to be there for our parents as they were for us. Sadly, that feeling isn’t shared by the second, third or fourth.

A．Through hard work. B．With the parents’ help.
C．At the parents’ request. D．In practice for effectiveness.
3、What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to?
A．To care for the old. B．To help the young.
C．To live outside alone. D．To travel nationwide.
4、What can we learn from the text?

B．The writer feels proud of his role.
C．The writer is satisfied with his attempt.
D．The writer is regretful about the siblings.
