13、A wild baby bison (野牛) at Yellowstone National Park had to be killed because of tourists.
The tourists thought that the baby bison looked cold. They put it in their car and drove to a park ranger (管理员) station.
A ranger described the action of the tourists as a “dangerous move” because adult bisons can look after their babies very well and they will attack (攻击) to protect their young.
Park rangers took the animal from the car and set it free. But, sadly, the baby was refused by its family because it had the smell from humans.
Yellowstone National Park explained on Facebook that the smell from people can cause parent animals to refuse to accept their young. The park tried again and again to make the baby bison lives with its parents. After several times they had to give up.
Many people expressed anger at both the tourists and the park.
The park said that they did not have the ability to care for a young bison. They also said that it is “not the task of the park to save animals”.
The tourists were fined (罚款) $110 for touching park wildlife. Park rules say that visitors to Yellowstone should stay at least 22 meters away from all wildlife, and at least 90 meters away from bears and wolves.
One ranger said that Yellowstone recently added many safety signs that say staying near the wildlife there is dangerous to humans and animals as well. Those signs are written in English and other languages.

15、Every people(民族) uses its own special words to show its ideas and feelings. Some of these expressions are commonly used for many years. Others are popular for just a short time. One such American expression is “Where’s the beef?” It is used when something is not as good as it is said to be. In the early 1980s “Where’s the beef?” was one of the most popular expressions in the United States. It seemed as if everyone was using it at the time.
Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and food is more popular in America than a hamburger made from beef. In the 1960s a businessman named Ray began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers at a low price. Ray called this “McDonald’s”. Ray became one of the richest businessmen at last in America.
Other business people watched his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company(公司) called “Wendy’s” said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonald’s or anyone else. The Wendy’s Company began to use the expression “Where’s the beef?” to make people know that Wendy’s hamburgers were the biggest. The Wendy’s television advertisement(广告) showed three old women eating hamburgers. The bread that covered the meat was very big, but inside there was only a bit of meat. One of the women said she would not eat a hamburger with such a little piece of beef. “Where’s the beef?” she shouted in a funny way. The advertisement for Wendy’s hamburger restaurants was a success. As we said, it seemed everyone began using the expression “Where’s the beef?”

16、Children with autism(孤独症) have difficulty with social skills and communication. They often act in limited and repeated ways and have what seem like unusual strong interests.
Autism is more often seen in boys than girls. What causes it is not clear. Scientists are studying DNA and possible environmental influences.
Doctors usually cannot confirm a diagnosis(确诊) of autism until a child is about three years old. Rebecca Landa is a researcher at the Kennedy Krieger Institute. Professor Landa wanted to find out what differences in development might be seen earlier. She led a new study that observed 235 babies between 6 and 36 months of age.
“At six months of age, when you lay your baby on their back and you pull them by the arms gently into a seated place, the baby’s head may nod back behind the shoulders, like poor head control. But that does not mean that the baby is going to have autism. It does mean the baby needs to have some exercises to help their body get stronger. And when the babies strengthen their bodies, they are better able to play with toys and also with people, which will help them have better outcomes.”
By the time a baby is one year old, signs of possible autism include difficulty in using words and not looking eye-to-eye or reaching out to other people. By 14 months, the baby might smile less and use language less. However, Professor Landa says these signs can be very small and their children might be missed during a short health exam.
“It’s important for parents to pay attention to their children’s development, and if they care about a child’s development, they should listen to experts.”
The earlier parents notice delays, she says, the sooner they can begin simple things that may help improve their children’s development. For example, they can talk to the children about what they are doing, give opinions when the children show them something, and play simple games that keep the children’s attention.
1．What’s the best title of the passage?
A．How to Confirm a Diagnosis of Autism
B．Catching the Early Signs of Autism in Babies
C．Ways to Help Children with Autism to Get Better
D．Children with Autism with Difficulty in Communication
2．What can we learn from the third paragraph?
A．Landa tried to find differences in babies’ development earlier.
B．Landa has found ways to confirm a diagnosis of autism.
C．Doctors led a new study to confirm a diagnosis of autism.
D．Doctors helped babies with autism develop without difference.
3．When a baby with signs of autism is 14 months old, he or she may ________.
A．nod the head back behind the shoulders B．have difficulty raising his or her head
C．dislike to communicate with others D．like reaching out to other people

17、If you want to get the most out of the study of a language, you must also read for pleasure: novels, plays, travel books, and so on. And in reading books of this kind the important thing is to get on with the reading; to try to catch what the writer is going to tell you in the book as a whole. This is impossible if you stop and think over the meaning of every single word which happens to be unfamiliar. You can not enjoy a story if you stop a few times on every page in order to look up words in the dictionary. You may even prevent(妨碍) yourself from understanding the story as a whole by doing this.
When you are reading books of this kind, therefore, you will usually have to depend mainly on the context (上下文) to help you. If you meet an unfamiliar word, do not let it take too much of your attention from the main idea of the story. In all probability you will meet the same word again a few pages later on in a slightly different context, and each time you see it that your understanding of it will become more exact.
1．To read for pleasure means _____________.
A．to take pleasure in rea
