23.(8分)Last summer my daughter’s school was blown up. No students were harmed, but the main building was completely destroyed, as well as the nearby dorms.
Before you start trying to ask when this horrible act took place on U. S. soil, I should mention that this attack didn’t happen in reality, rather in my daughter’s carefully constructed Minecraft world. During an online journey with a few friends, a stranger came to her school and bombed the school she had carefully built. In a minute, her school was ruined. Sure, no actual property(财产)was damaged. But the emotional pain she felt was very much real. She thought this was a form of terrorism.
I shared this act of absurd online violence on my Facebook page, and fellow parents with Minecraft-loving children were just as shocked as I was. I had thought this was a unique experience, and my daughter was just unlucky that this happened to her. But, as it turned out, she was far from alone. The acts were performed by computer bullies(暴徒) known as “griefers”. The platform that my daughter was playing was the Minecraft: Pocket Edition(PE)version, which is popular with younger players. While she once only played in creative mode(模式), she began to play in the multi-player mode so that she and a few friends from school could build and create together. That multi-player choice made it possible for a stranger, one of these “griefers”, to do damage.
It was a painful lesson for my daughter that dangers happened suddenly. She understood we have to protect ourselves from bad people in the real world. Still, there was some goodness that came out of the ruins. Many fellow players of hers took the time to help her rebuild her school, which has been set up again. She is moved. Also, this experience opened her eyes.
1、What was the result of the daughter’s school being blown up?
A.All the buildings but the dorms were ruined.
B.Many students were seriously injured.
C.Money needed to be seriously injured.
D.The author’s daughter felt hurt a lot.
2、Before talking to other parents about the attack the author had thought that .
A.her daughter should be blamed for it
B.this attack was just a rare incident
C.danger happened all of a sudden on the Internet
D.her daughter was too lonely
3、Which of the following is NOT true about the “griefers”?
A.They can help players build and create a new world.
B.They are performed by computer bullies.
C.They are likely to cause damage in the multi-player mode.
D.They disturb and cause sadness to game players.
4、What did her daughter do after the incident?
A.Quit playing Minecraft.
B.Gave up multi-player mode.
C.Learned to defend herself against bad people.
D.Decided to rebuild her school independently.
24.(8分)The hit movie Finding Nemo follows a clownfish from the Great Barrier Reef. In real life, clownfish are among the thousands of colorful sea creatures that call the Great Barrier Reef home. Stretching 1, 250 miles along Australia’s northeastern coast, the Great Barrier Reef is the longest coral reef in the world.
A coral reef is a living underwater structure. But these days, the Great Barrier Reef has found itself in trouble. Overfishing, pollution, and high temperatures are harming its health. That’s why the government in Australia is trying to help rescue the reef.
Underwater Garden
While coral may look like a plant, it is actually made up of tiny sea animal. Those sea animals are called coral polyps.
As polyps die, they leave hard shells behind. Other polyps grow on top of the shells. Over thousands of years, they form a coral reef in warm water that is not very deep.
In many ways, the Great Barrier Reef resembles an underwater garden. Coral can be hard or soft. It forms in different colors and in strange shapes. Some coral looks like hardened brains. Other coral looks like fans and lettuces.
The reef bursts with schools of tropical fish, dashing among gaps in the coral. The reef supplies food and shelter to creatures living in and around the coral. Turtles, sharks, sea horses, and crabs are among its many inhabitants.
Helping Humans
While the reef is important to ocean life, it helps humans, too. People rely on the reef for both food and jobs. It also provides medicine used to treat disease. Each year, the Great Barrier Reef contributes about $ 975 million to the economy through tourism and fishing.
Stressed Out
Is it surprising, then, that the Great Barrier Reef is under too much stress? Fishing nets and ships break off sections and damage the reef. Air and water pollution are also doing harm. At the same time, warmer sea temperatures have caused coral bleaching(漂白)on half of the reef. The high temperatures cause the coral to turn white, often killing it.
Reef Rescue
In an effort to help save the reef, the government has limited fishing to two thirds of it. That plan increases the number of “green zones.” Those are areas that are off-limits to fishermen and boats. However, tourists and researchers can still visit them. Many fishermen are upset about the plan because they rely on the reef for jobs.
The Australian government says that its plan will help keep the reef safe from some threats. “It is very important that we give a reef proper protection for the future,” said one government official. The reef is Australia’s greatest natural treasure.
1、Which of the following is not a creature that lives in the Great Barrier Reef?
A.Coral polyps. B.Turtles.
C.Sea horses. D.Whales.
2、Which section describes the problem in this passage?
A.“Underwater Garden” B.“Helping Humans”
C.“Stressed Out” D.“Reef Rescue”
3、What picture can the reader get from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 6?
A.Many fish quickly moving through the coral.
B.Fish moving toward the center, or target, of the coral.
C.Structured, orderly groups of young fish without a clear path.
D.Fish exploding when they come into contact with gaps in the coral.
