Why do people love pandas so much? Perhaps it is because they look very cute, or perhaps it is because there are not many left.

Pandas are actually called giant pandas. Many people also call them panda bears because they are mammals (哺乳类) classified from the bear family. Giant pandas originate in China. Pictures of both the dragon and the giant panda are often regarded as the symbols of China.

Giant pandas look different from other bears because they are white with black patches around their eyes, over their ears, and across their bodies. Although they look adorable and move slow, they can be as dangerous as any other bear when they are angry. Pandas mostly eat bamboo, but they may also eat other food like eggs, fish, oranges and bananas.

Many people think that giant pandas have few babies, and that is one of the reasons that there are not many of them left. But scientists say that a female panda may have about five or six cubs during her life. The female panda gives birth to one or two panda cubs, but she is only able to take care of only one of her cubs. As a result, one of her cubs dies soon after birth because of a lack of intense care.

The giant panda is an endangered species, and there are only about 2,000 giant pandas left in the world. People have been trying hard to protect giant pandas. It looks like their work is paying off because the number of giant pandas is increasing.

1.Why do some people call “pandas” panda bears?

A. Because they look like bears.

B. Because they like to live with bears.

C. Because they are often regarded as bears.

D. Because they are mammals classified from the bear family.

2.What do pandas like eating most?

A. Bamboo. B. Fish. C. Bananas. D. Oranges.

3.How many baby pandas can a female panda have in her life?

A. Three. B. Four or five. C. Five or six. D. More than seven.

4.What does the phrase “paying off ” mean in the last paragraph?

A. To result in success. B. To pay money on it.

C. To stop working. D. To make it work.

You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their hands. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead!Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are well trained. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks (花招,手段). Here are two sides to their work. They do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntmen’s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.

Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously hurt, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, flew over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. Although it is full of deadly dangers, this is no longer the work for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous actions. For nowadays there are stuntwomen too! (357)

1.Stuntmen are those who ______.

A. often dress up as famous actors

B. prefer to lead dangerous lives

C. often perform dangerous actions

D. often fight each other for their lives

2.What’s the meaning of the underlined sentences in the first paragraph?

A stuntman should _______.

A. crash bravely though a window made of sugar

B. do the well-planned activity at a very moment

C. open his parachute when he jumps down the cliff

D. have got a high degree of skill and training

3.Which could probably the best title of this passage?

A. Fights in the Movies.B. Crashing Out of the Window.

C. Exciting Films Today.D. Most Dangerous Work.
