In 1900,about 100,000 cheetahs (猎豹) lived in the world. Today there are only 10 ,000. Everyone knows that cheetahs are fast. Some studies have measured (测量) their speed at about 95 kilometers an hour.
John Wilson took part in the cheetah research. He says cheetahs can easily deal with the energy. They rest for most of the day. And they only have a few periods of activity. For example,a cheetah would only hunt in the morning for a few hours and in the afternoon for a few hours.
Dr Wilson says the new study finds that it is not really what happens. " Our study has found that cheetahs lose about 12 percent of the food. While they lose quite a bit of their food,cheetahs are pretty fast eaters. So,they've eaten a lot of that food before they use that food. The act of losing food is not so significant (有重大意义的) ."
The longer they look for food,the more energy they need. And,he says, "That is the problem. ” It takes longer time for cheetahs to find animals they can catch and eat. And they haVe to walk farther to do so. Dr Wilson says it is because they naturally avoid people. Human beings are increasingly occupying the areas where cheetahs traditionally look for food. Houses and fences block them from searching for animals to attack. Cheetahs use up a lot of energy to get around.
Dr Wilson says that there are no easy solutions to help cheetahs deal with human activities,but fast action is needed.

A. endangered B. increasing C. friendly D. simple

( ) 4. The underlined word "occupying" in the passage means .

A. There are many easy solutions to help cheetahs deal with human activities.
B. Cheetahs can easily solve the energy and they have simple periods of activity.

D. Cheetahs have to walk much farther to find animals because they must avoid people.
1. A推理判断题。由题目中的关键词The cheetahs . . . nowadays ,可回原文定位于第一段。根据第一段第一 、二句"In 1900.about 100.000 cheetahs lived in the world. Today there are only 10.000."可以判断，现在猎豹是濒临灭绝的动物。
2. D细节理解题。由题目中的关键词run at a speed of ,可回原文定位于第一段第四句。根据"Some studies have measured their speed at about 95 kilometers an hour."可知，猎豹的奔跑速度大约是每小时95千米。
3. B关系指代题。由题目中的关键词"they" in the third paragraph ,可回原文定位于第三段。根据"While they lose quite a bit of their food,cheetahs are pretty fast eaters."可知，they指的是"猎豹"。
4. D同义猜测题。由题目中的关键词occupying ,可回原文定位于第四段。根据"D r Wilson says it is because they naturally avoid people."及下文可知，occupying的意思是"占用"，相当于taking np。
5. A细节理解题。根据"Dr Wilson says that there are no easy solutions to help cheetahs deal with human activities,but fast action is needed."可知.没有简单的方法来帮助猎豹处理人类的活动，因此，A项表述为"有简单的方法来帮助猎豹处理人类的活动"是错误的。根据第二段中的"He says cheetahs can easily deal with the energy. "和"And they only have a few periods of activity."可知，猎豹可以非常简单地解决能源问题，并且只有几个活动的时间段，排除B;根据第三段中的"While they lose quite a bit of their food,cheetahs are pretty fast eaters."可排除C;根据第四段中的"And they have to walk farther lo do so. Dr Wilson says it is because they naturally avoid people."可知，猎豹走得更远寻找食物是因为它们必须避免人类，排除D.

I shook hands with my father in the truck,and for a long time he looked straight ahead and didn't say a word. But I knew he was going to say a little to me. "I can't tell you anything," he finally said. "I never went to college,and none of your brothers went to college. I can't say don't do this or do that,because everything is different and I don1! know what is going to come up. I can't help much with money,either,but I think things will work out.”
He gave me a new chequebook. "If things get pushing,write a small check. But when you write one,send me a letter and let me know how much it is. There are some things we can always sell. ” In four years all the checks I wrote were less than one thousand dollars. My parttime jobs such as reading to the blind students and sitting with the teachers' kids filled in the financial gaps.
"You know what you want to be,and they'll tell you what to take," my father went on. "When you get a job,be sure it's honest,and work hard. ” I knew that soon I would be alone in the big town,and I would miss the cool wind and the life where your thinking was done for you.
Then my dad reached down beside his seat and took out the old,broken Bible that he had read many times,the one he used when he wanted to look something up in a friendly quarrel with one of the neighbors. I knew he would miss it. I knew,though,that T must take it.
He didn't say "Read this every morning. ” He just said, "This can help you if you read it."
Did it help? I went to college without being a burden on the family. I had been able to make money since then.
