24、The Qinghai-Tibet plateau is a mountainous area in western China that sits about 4,000 meters above sea level. This beautiful natural environment is made up of grassy lands, lakes and glaciers (冰川). Very few people live in the area, but it is home to many animals, including the endangered Tibetan antelope (藏羚羊).

Thousands of Tibetan antelopes once lived in this area, but their populations dropped in the 1980s and 1990s. This was in large part the result of poaching (偷猎). Poachers often killed Tibetan antelopes for their soft and highly prized wool.

Over recent decades, however, much has been done to protect these animals. The government has made it much more difficult for poachers to operate in the area by introducing strict laws. And in the spring, when thousands of Tibetan antelopes make a long journey to Hoh Xil, government workers follow the antelopes, making sure that they are protected from poachers and from other wild animals.

The government has also taken steps to slow down tourism in the area, since tourists often disturb the natural habits of animals.

All of this work has had good results. Tibetan antelopes are enjoying much better conditions than before, and their populations are rising once again. Today there are more than 60,000 Tibetan antelopes in the area—and this number continues to grow every year.

【1】Which sentence is NOT correct?

A．Poaching caused the population of Tibetan antelopes to drop decades ago.

B．The population of Tibetan antelopes is staring to grow again.

C．The government is encouraging tourism in the Tibetan antelope's natural habitat.

D．The Qinghai-Tibet plateau has a small human population.

【2】Why did poachers kill Tibetan antelopes?

A．They wanted to get the valuable wool.

B．They wanted to live in their habitat.

C．Tibetan antelopes brought trouble to them.

D．They wanted to trade their meat.

【3】Why do government workers follow Tibetan antelopes on their long journeys?

A．They want to record their living habits.

B．They want to protect them from poachers.

C．They want to make sure that they are protected from other animals.

D．They want to keep them safe from poachers and other animals.

【4】Which is the best title?

A．Endangered animals.

B．A success story: protecting Tibetan antelope.

C．Reasons for the disappearing of Tibetan antelope.

D．More antelopes now!

25、Amos Dudley, a 24-year-old boy who studies digital design at New Jersey University of Technology, felt ashamed about his teeth. But being a student, Dudley didn’t have the money to get braces(牙箍). So, he decided to

3-D print his own and marked down the DIY project in a recent blog post. His braces totaled less than $60, and after wearing them for 16 weeks, his teeth are also getting straighter.

then made non-harmful plastic molds (模子) around them to make 12 sets of braces.

Dudley, who does not recommend attempting any of this at home said that he didn’t ask a dentist for his project. But the student did get information from journal articles and textbooks. And though this was a perfectly

friendly choice to buy braces. He didn’t accept the project just to save money--he was also up for the challenge. “When I realized that I could do something that was a little bit special, while proving my skills as a designer

and a maker, and fixing something that was making me self-conscious for actually free, I felt it was more than worth the risk.” he said.
