2.During the tsunami (海啸) disaster of 2004,over 300,000people died.No one has counted the number of animals killed,but we know that it wasn't many.All over the region,before the disaster struck,animals were behaving strangely. Shortly before the tsunami,in Khaolak,Thailand,twelve elephants that were giving tourists rides became agitated.They suddenly left their usual habitat,carrying four surprised Japanese tourists to safety.On the eastern coast of India,flamingos (火烈鸟),which should be breeding at this time of year,suddenly flew to higher ground.Of the two thousand wild pigs that live in an Indian nature reserve,only one was found dead after the tsunami. The idea that the animals are able to predict disasters is nothing new.In fact,it has been well-recorded over the years.Twelve hours before Hurricane Charlie hit Florida in 2004,fourteen sharks left their natural habitat and stayed in deep waters for two weeks.The sharks,which were being observed by US scientists,had never done this before.They escaped the hurricane.In the winter of 1975in Haicheng,China,snakes which would normally have been hibernating (冬眠) were seen on the ground.Days later there was a big earthquake striking. Unlike human beings,wild animals'senses are sharper and they can feel even the smallest changes in the environment.In other words,they see natural warnings that are invisible to the human eye.Ancient people probably had the similar"senses",which they needed to survive,but these have been lost to us as modern technology leads us further away from the danger that nature creates. The real question is,can we use the reactions of animals to save ourselves from natural disasters?Animal behaviour expert,Rupesh Kaneira,believes we have no choice."The technology which we rely on isn't always perfect,and in poorer countries it isn't even available.Animals knw the environment better than any of us.When they run for their lives,we must follow." 25.The underlined word"agitated"in Paragraph 2probably meansA. A.worried and nervous B.tired and uneasy C.disappointed and sad D.excited and happy 26.How is the third paragraph developed?B A.By giving explanations. B.By listing examples. C.By presenting the reasons. D.By comparing the differences. 27.The wild animals can predict the natural disasters because theyD. A.can run for their lives when natural disasters hppen B.don't even have the modern technology to help them C.are being observed and tracked for scientific experiments D.are quick to notice the slightest changes in the environment 28.The best title of the passage might beD. A.Few Animals Died in Tsunami B.Animals React to the Disasters C.Animals can Survive the Disasters D.Watching Animals will Save Us.
20.Dear Alcohol, You've been around forever.I can remember all the pain you've caused for me. Do you remember the night you almost took my father's life?I do.He loves you.Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me.He's addicted to you,to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them.You just sat back and laughed as his car went spinning through the street,crashing into two other cars.He wasn't the only one hurt by you that night. Do you remember the night of my first high school party?You were there.My friends were intrigued by you.They treated you as if they were never going to see you again,drinking all of you that they could.I spent two hours that night helping my friends who had fallen copletely."I'm so embarrassed,"they said as I held their hair back so that they could vomit."I'm sorry,"they said when I called taxis for them,walking them out and paying the driver in advance."This won't happen again,"they said as they were sent to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped.Two 15-year-old girls slept in hospital beds that night thanks to you. Do you remember the night when you took advantage of my 17-year-old neighbor who had to drive to pick up his sister from her dance lessons?Do you know how we all felt when he hit another car and killed the two people in the other car?He died the next morning too.His sister walked home from her dance lesson,and passed police cars and a crowd of people gathering on the sidewalk just two blocks away from the dance studio.She didn't realize her brother was in the midst of it all.She never saw him again.And it's all your fault. I wish you'd walk out of my life forever.I don't want anything to do with you.Look at all the pain you've caused.Sure,you've made people happy too from time to time.But the damage you've caused in the lives of millions is inexcusable.Stop luring (引诱) in the people I love.Stop hurting me,please.
