On a typical day, off the coast of a small Brazilian island, Pereira headed out to fish. He was disheartened to
find that an oil leak had polluted the waters. Staring out at the waves with their oil sheen(光泽), he decided it was
not a good day to fish. But walking on the beach that day, he found a struggling penguin, covered in oil and
starving.
Pereira took the penguin home, gently cleaned it and spent the next week nursing it back to health. He named
it Dindim, which belongs to a species known for living in the seas of South America. In order to bear babies, they
must return to Patagonia, 8,000 kilometers from Pereira’s home. Pereira patiently took Dindim back to the ocean
and taught it how to swim again. Soon enough, it was time for Dindim to return to life in the wild. Pereira watched
Dindim swim away, believing it would be the last time he saw it.
But the next June,Dindim returned. The two shared a warm-hearted greeting, and Dindim stayed for a
month,wandering around the fisherman’s house. The time to leave arrived, and Pereira thought this surely would be
the last time he would see Dindim. But in the same month of the year after next, the penguin with a long memory
returned again.

A college degree is helpful for many practical reasons, ranging from your increased competitiveness to the
increased likeliness that you’ll be promoted within your job. However, people think little of the degree of personal
growth that they’ll experience as they’re working through their degrees. A college education requires students to
overcome all types of difficulties and prepares themselves not only for the workplace, but for dealing with many of
life’s challenges.
Time management and organization, for example, are just two examples of the skills that you’re likely to get
the hang of during your time in college. Both are needed to successfully deal with the many courses you will take
and the tasks before you. Tests, exams, and home-work dates can all become confusing when you’re dealing with
multiple classes. Good organization can help you manage all of your responsibilities, and it’s a skill that will be
useful once you have your degree. Not only is it useful in the workplace,but it can help you manage your personal
responsibilities at home as well. Even simple tasks like bill payments are made easier when you can properly track
what is due and when.
Of course, on a larger level, the sort of personal development you’ll experience will large-ly be related to
B．11 months.
D．13 months.

overcoming difficulties. College requires that you overcome one challenge after another, ranging from learning
courses to passing tests or completing projects. You’ll need to be not only intelligent but disciplined in order to
complete your schooling. These traits(特质)are often developed slowly throughout college. As you learn how to
better respond to stress and difficulties, you’ll slowly find that you’re better able to deal with difficulties in a
number of situations.
28．What benefit is ignored about working through a college degree?
A．More job opportunities.
C．Stronger competitiveness.
B．More chances of promotion.

29．What does the underlined phrase“get the hang of”in paragraph 2 mean?

March 3 is World Wildlife Day, an opportunity to celebrate the wonderful diversity of plants and animals on
earth. This day also marks the 50th anniversary of an international agreement between governments to ensure the
trading of wild animals and plants—which is estimated to be worth billions of US dollars globally—doesn’t
threaten species’ survival.
The voluntary deal, called the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and
Flora(CITES), provides varying degrees of protection to more than 37,000 species globally. The text of the
convention was agreed at a meeting on March 3,1973 and it came into force in 1975. It provides a framework for
184 participants to ensure sustain-able trading of wild species for products such as food, fur and medicines.
B．Pick up.
D．Get off.

“Without CITES, we’d lack a vital mechanism to turn off the ever-flowing and sorrowful deal of species
driven by market demand,” said Abigail Entwistle at conservation charity in a press release.
The mountain gorilla is one species benefiting from a total trade ban under CITES in partner ship with this
charity. Since this began, the population size has risen fourfold to more than 1,000 individuals. The pygmy
hippos(侏儒河马)are also protected by CITES. They are found in the forests and swamps of West Africa, with most
living in Liberia. Recently, conservationists have confirmed that pygmy hippos have a wider distribution than
previously thought.
Grenadines pink rhino iguana(犀牛鬣蜥)is a striking species, which is threatened by hunting, because it still
lacks CITES protection. Since 2016, the charity has been working with local and international partners to protect
this species. The important point is that it works. The charity says“a CITES listing would be the logical next step”to
better protect its survival.
32．What is the purpose of the international agreement?
A．To earn profits for humans.
B．To ensure the diversity of wildlife.
C．To lower the trade barrier between countries.
D．To keep a balance between trade and species’ survival.

A．It reveals reasons for species declining.
B．It shows mechanism of conservation charity.
C．It contributes to species conservation on earth.
D．It drives people to research on species’ survival.

C．By drawing comparisons.
B．By making a summary.
D．By explaining a concept.
35．What is the author’s attitude to the protection of Grenadines pink rhino iguana?

Left-handed people make up around 12% of the global population. One really interesting fact that I picked up
was from a scientist who believed that left-handed people tended to be more independent as a result of having to
adapt to a world that is largely built for right-handed individuals.___36___!
More likely to have allergies and sleep disorders
A study found that left-handed people were 11 times more likely to suffer from allergies than right-handed
folk.___37___.
Left-handed people use the right side of the brain the most
___38___, meaning that the right side controls the left side of the body and the other way around. Hence there
is a well-known saying “only left-handed people are in their right minds”. The right-hand side of the brain is
thought to control the left side of the body and tasks to do with the arts and creativity.
Are left-handed people smarter?
___39___! One 2007 study “Effect of handedness on intelligence level of students”shows that lefties are more
likely to have higher IQ. However,another 2010 study “The relationship between hand preference, hand
performance, and general cognitive ability” suggests the exact opposite!
___40___
Experiments showed that when given two tasks to complete simultaneously (同时), lefties performed best.
This is because right-handed people tend to solve problems by breaking them down into parts and analyzing each
piece one at a time. While left-handed people tend to look at the problem as a whole and use pattern-matching to try
and solve it.
