For six hundred years， the Tower of London' s most exotic(异域风情的) prisoners were animals.
The Menagerie(动物园) began as a result of kings exchanging rare and strange animals as gifts. In 1235, Henry III was delighted to be presented with three wildcats by the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II. These inspired him to start a zoo at the Tower. Henry's 'wildcats', although described as leopards, were probably lions. These are the ancestors of the three lions that still appear on the England football team's shirts today.
In 1252 the ions were joined by a white bear probably a polar bear---given by the King of Norway. In 1255, the King of France sent the first elephant ever seen in England and people flocked together to see the novel sight. Sadly, the elephant died two years later.
Poor treatment and cramped conditions meant many of the animals did not survive for long. But the Menagerie continued to grow. Edward I created a permanent new home for the Menagerie at the western entrance to the Tower in what became known as the Lion Tower. The terrifying sounds and smells of wild animals must have both impressed and scared visitors.
By 1622, the collection had been extended to include three eagles, two pumas, a tiger and a jackal, as well as lions and leopards, who were the main attractions.
However, the end of the Menagerie came in the 1830s. Campaigners had begun to raise concerns, and the animals were expensive, occasionally dangerous and a nuisance to the guardsmen. The Duke of Wellington sent 150 of the beasts to a new zoo in Regent's Park, today's London Zoo.
Despite Alfred Cops's best efforts to carry on, several further incidents including an escaped wolf and a monkey that bit a guardsman's leg convinced King William IV to shut down the Menagerie for good in 1835. The remaining animals were sold to zoos and travelling shows and the Lion Tower was later demolished.
24 What do we know about the elephant presented in 1255?
A. It caused big trouble. B. It received much attention.
C. It lived painfully in the Lion Tower. D. It died before the polar bear came in.
25. How many types of animals at the Menagerie are mentioned in the text?
A. Eight. B. Nine. C. Ten. D. Eleven.
26. For what reason was the Menagerie closed at last?
A. Security concerns. B. The decline of tourism. C. Pressure from campaigners. D. Financial burden to raise the animals.
27. Which is the best title for the text?
A. The Royal Menagerie B. Gifts Presented to the King C. Tourist Attractions in London D. Miserable Life in the Lion Tower

Young trees don't just grow; they develop a personality and learn more about their environment and how they should best behave in it. They also help each other out whenever there’s trouble .
Personality, just as among people, varies among trees. Some are anxious, some bold. On the author’s land, there are three oak trees growing close together. One of the oak trees always starts to shed its leaves two weeks earlier than the others. Since they all experience the same temperature, the same soil and the same length of day, such variables can't be the explanation. So what’s happening? Well, this tree is simply more careful than the others. Whoever holds on to leaves longer can do more photosynthesis and store more nutrients. However, the longer a tree keeps its leaves, the higher the risk of injury.
Not only do trees make their own decisions; they also learn from their mistakes. A tree, for example, keeping its leaves too long during one year will never make this mistake again. This leads to several other conclusions: trees must notice the temperature and length of the day and be able to save their experiences somewhere. Obviously, trees don't have brains, but it is thought that in the sensitive tips of their roots they keep track of information and experiences.
But trees aren't only clever when it es to caring for themselves. They also support each other whenever there's trouble by giving warnings and even taking care of sick and weak conspecifies with nutrients. For example, one time the author found a very old tree stump. Its insides had rotted a long time ago to topsoil. But the wood on the outside of the stump was still living. How was this possible? Well, the stump was nourished by its neighbors with nutrients from the root system, and had been for at least 400 years!
Why do trees do such a thing? It’s simple: it's better together. Trees need the forest; it protects them from storms, provides the right microclimate and warms them of attacks.
28. Why does the author mention the three oak trees?
A. To illustrate trees can learn from experiences. B. To show trees can make independent decisions.
C. To explain trees are quite supportive to each other. D. To prove trees have the same personalities as humans.
29. According to the text, which of the following best describes general features of trees?
A. Anxious and bold. B. Smart and adventurous. C. Helpful and well-behaved. D. Adaptable and supportive.
30. What does the underlined phrase"do such a thing"mean?
A. Give warnings. B. Offer assistance. C. Depend on others. D. Provide nutrients.
31. Where does this text most probably e from?
A. A public lecture. B. A science book. C. An experiment report. D. A travel journal.

Japan recently lowered its voting age from 20 to 18. This decision was in part to help young people feel more engaged in politics. But it may also signal the change of social views regarding the beginning of adulthood.
Adulthood has traditionally been defined by a bination of age and the achievement of social milestones(里程碑). Most countries have a legally defined age to determine when a person bees an adult-the age of majority. In Australia, most states consider a person to be an adult in court at 18. The age of 18 is also consistent with other adult privileges, such as the right to purchase alcohol and to marry. However, 17-year-olds can serve in the army and get a driver,s license. The law defines adulthood on the basis of age and it also recognizes the process of being an adult as involving gradually in social responsibility. This legal approach to adulthood is mirrored in other countries, where there are differences between the age of majority and social responsibilities given to young people.
Socially, determinants of adulthood traditionally focus on a person taking increasing responsibility for their lives in various ways. pleting school, taking full-time employment, getting married and parenthood- these are all observable indicators to determine when a person is viewed as an adult.
Since the 1980s, however, people have achieved some of these observable milestones at later ages. Increased access to education has delayed young people leaving home and developing romantic relationships. Economic changes have also resulted in unstable employment markets and increases in costs of living, prompting many young people to remain at home and dependent on parents.
Due to these social changes, our expectations of young people and their level of social responsibility have also changed. The recognition of a new life stage---emerging adulthood---has been remended to account for the changes to social milestones that have traditionally represented adulthood.
32. What can we learn about adulthood from the text?
A. People reach observable indicators much later. B. Age alone is a reliable determinant of adulthood.
C. Participation in politics is a responsibility for adulthood. D. Economic changes mainly shift people's views on adulthood.
33. What right can people enjoy at the age of 17 in most states of Australia?
A. Voting. B. Buying wines. C. Getting married. D. Driving legally.
34. What does the underlined word"prompting" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Encouraging. B. Advising. C. Forbidding. D. Persuading.
35 What's the main idea of the text?
A. Emerging adulthood reflects a new life stage. B. Adulthood is defined differently in different places.
C. Social changes are challenging the idea of adulthood. D. Adulthood is a bination of rights and responsibilities.

From sports teams to movie characters, we love supporting the weak. While that’s inspiring for a film or a story, it can be hard to remain positive when you're experiencing a struggle. It's said that what is most personal is most universal. 36 Here are some important reasons why you should share your story of struggle.
You can shine a light for others. 37 Sometimes, that's all someone needs to get through a difficult time. You can help even more with ideas and solutions to apply creatively to their own problems.
38 It's unfortable admitting to others your failures, struggles or other moments of weakness. That’s true for everyone, yet opening yourself up to moments of weakness is surprisingly satisfying. It requires courage and being courageous requires practice.
People will support you. 39 We all do. So why not share the ways yo
