Doris Carvalho,a
woman
from
Tampa,America has come up with an original way of combining her two greatest passions—veterinary science(獸醫學) and fashion.She recycles dog hair and changes it into high-end designer handbags.
Doris loves her new job so much that she hopes to change it into a business—she's currently running a Kickstarter campaign to raise $15,000 toward that purpose.That's just enough money to make her first line of 30 handbags and pay for marketing.
“These handbags prove that high-end can be made eco-friendly from your pet for you,” she pointed out.“I turn dog hair that would be rubbish anywhere else in the world into these handbags.I use it to make the thread.It's reused and recycled.”
It takes Doris about 50 hours to complete each one handbag without any machines.She needs about two pounds of fur per handbag and she insists that the completed handbag is as soft as any other fur.It is priced at $1,000,but she says that the price would go down if the products were to ever go into mass production.“I hope in the future I can make it cheaper and sell much cheaper for everyone,” she said.
We aren't sure how well these handbags are selling,but according to Jaime Calderbank,owner of One Lucky Dog in St.Petersburg,it all depends on how much people are willing to display their love for their dogs.“I think a few of them that really love their dogs would like something like that,” she said.
Doris has managed to raise just $350 ever since she started the campaign,but she has 50 days to reach her $15,000 goal.“I hope people who like the campaign can help,” she said.“Any contribution is welcome.”

All trade in five named species of sharks is to be regulated (管制) from now on.Without a permit,the sale of their meat or fins(鰭) will be forbidden.
The regulation was agreed last year at a meeting of the Convention
on International
Trade
in Endangered Species in Thailand.According to the rules,the whitetip (白鰭鯊),the porbeagle (鼠鯊),and three varieties of hammerhead will be protected.Besides,manta rays (比目魚),valued for their gills (鰓)which are used in Chinese medicine,will also be protected.
The action is seen as the most important one in the 40-year history to protect these species.
“Regulating international trade in these shark and manta ray species has a great effect on their survival and is a very clear way of helping to protect sharks and our oceans,” said Secretary General John Scanlon.“The practical steps will involve issues such as limiting export levels,
and identifying the fins,gills and meat that are in trade.This may seem challenging,but by working together we can do it and we will do it.”
Under the rules,all trade in these sharks and rays across 180 countries will not be allowed unless they have got their permits given by the national related organization.
As a matter of fact,trade in shark fins has already decreased greatly as a result of campaigns to raise awareness.Recently it has been reported that sales have gone down by 70%.Earlier this year the hotel giant,Hilton Worldwide stopped serving shark fins at its 96 owned and managed Asia-Pacific hotels.
However,Denmark,Canada,Guyana,Japan,Iceland and Yemen have all announced they will not follow the new rules and will continue to fish for some or all of these species.Under the regulations though,they are only able to trade with other countries that are also ready to ignore the rules.
Officials point out that for such a questioned issue,the number of countries which is going to continue the trade is small.
【語篇解讀】 去年在泰國的一個國際會議上,與會人員通過了保護鯊魚和比目魚的規定

fishers
know
the
importance of protecting sharks
D.prevent big hotels from serving sharks' meat
答案 B [細節理解題。根據第一、二段內容可知,實施新規定的目的是保護五種鯊魚和比目魚,只有獲得許可,人們才可以捕撈和販賣這些鯊魚。]
5.Which of the following doesn't belong to species of sharks?
A.The manta ray.
B.The porbeagle.
C.The whitetip.
D.The hammerhead.
答案 A [細節理解題。根據第二段“According to the rules,the whitetip,the porbeagle,and three varieties of hammerhead will be protected.Besides,manta rays...”可知,比目魚不屬于鯊魚。]
6.What can be inferred from John Scanlon' s words in Paragraph Four?
A.The regulation may have some negative effects on sharks.
B.The export of sharks' meat will be called off in some periods.
C.It's nearly impossible to carry out the regulation worldwide.
D.Officials are confident that the regulations have a promising future.
答案 D [推理判斷題。根據第四段“This may seem challenging,but by working together we can do it and we will do it.”可知,John Scanlon認為雖然很具有挑戰性,但是只要人們一起努力,保護鯊魚的行

A.people's getting their permits to trade in shark fins
B.a successful company's managing its wealth
C.people's beginning to stop eating shark fins
D.people's raising awareness to protect sharks
答案 D [推理判斷題。根據第六段內容可知,隨著保護鯊魚意識的提高,鯊魚交易已經大幅度減少了。希爾頓酒店停止向顧客出售魚翅,這給提高保護鯊魚意識做出了好的表率。]
Ⅱ.根據短文內容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
A fear of heights is a common feeling that is easy
to
understand.According
to
many psychologists,a fear of heights is one of only two natural fears.__8__If you are on the edge of a cliff,it is useful to be a little afraid.If you are not afraid,you could walk too close to the edge (邊緣) and fall off.Having a fear of heights is good because it protects us from real danger.
__9__They experience strong fears even inside a safe environment such as a tall building,which is not a common response and it is not helpful.John Adams,an English teacher,has a strong fear of heights that makes his life very difficult.“As long as I can remember,I have had a powerful fear of heights.__10__For example,when I was with friends in Paris,I became terrified while going up the Eiffel Tower.I was almost crying and I felt embarrassed for the rest of the vacation,Adams said.
Fortunately,having an unreasonable fear of heights can be corrected.__11__The most effective way seems to be getting the person to acknowledge (承認) their fear,for example,by encouraging them to go to the top of tall buildings,hike up tall mountains,or stand on a high bridge.
__12__When people face a threatening situation,taking slow,deep breaths can help slow the heart rate and increase the oxygen flow to muscles to keep from tensing(緊張) up.If possible,a few minutes of meditation(沉思) may be effective in reducing some tension.
It is important to remember that a fear of heights is not unusual and can be treated.
A.Another way to overcome a fear of heights is to learn to control the physical symptoms.
B.However,some people have an unreasonable and unhealthy fear of heights.
C.One way to defeat your fear of heights is to do an activity that involves nothing but heights.
D.There are a number of ways that can be achieved.
E.It can completely ruin a vacation.
F.The other is a fear of loud noises.
G.Nearly everyone experiences some degree of panic when facing heights.
答案
8.F [根據上文“...a fear of heights is one of only two natural fears.”可知,恐高是兩種天然的恐懼之一,另一種是對大的噪音的恐懼。]
9.B [根據下文“They experience strong fears even inside a safe environment such as a tall building...”可知,然而有些人會對高度產生過度的恐慌,他們甚至在比如較高的建筑物里也會感到強烈的恐懼。]
10.E [...when I was with friends in Paris,I became terrified while going up the Eiffel Tower.I was almost crying and I felt embarrassed for the rest of the vacation...”可知,John Adams因為恐高而使得自己在巴黎的假期過得很糟糕。]
11.D [根據上下文“...having an unreasonable fear of heights can be corrected...The most effective way seems to be getting the person to acknowledge their fear”可知,過度地恐高是可以被改正過來的,有許多方法可以做到這一點。最有效的方法就是讓人承認他們的恐懼。]
12.A [根據下文“...taking slow,deep breaths can help slow the heart rate and increase the oxygen flow to muscles to keep from tensing up.”可知,另外一種方法就是控制體征,比如慢慢地深呼吸來降低心率,讓更多的氧氣流向肌肉來避免緊張。]
Ⅲ.閱讀下面材料,在空白處填入適當的內容(1個單詞)或括號內單詞的正確形式。
A boy trembled in the cold winter,__13__ (wrap) his arms around himself on a bus
stop bench.He __14__ (wear) warm clothes and the temperature was -10℃.A heartbreaking scene! But the good deeds of the ordinary people who witnessed __15__11-year-old Johannes were both joyous __16__ inspiring.A woman,sitting next to the boy,discovered he was __17__ a school trip and was told to meet his teacher at the bus stop.She __18__ (self) covered her own coat around his shoulders.Later,__19__ woman at first gave him her scarf,and then wrapped him in her large jacket.Throughout the day,more and more people offered Johannes their gloves and even the coats off their backs.__20__ (actual),it was a hidden camera experiment by Norwegian charity SOS Children's Village as part of their winter campaign to collect __21__ (donate) to help Syrian children get through the winter.Synne Ronning,the information head of the organization,also noted that the child was a volunteer who was never in any __22__ (dangerous)
during the filming.
【語篇解讀】 這是一篇記敘文閱讀。文章主要講述了一個11歲男孩在汽車站得到好心人的幫助,通過這件事挪威SOS兒童村發起救助貧窮的孩子溫暖過冬的活動。
13.wrapping [考查非謂語動詞用法。根據句子的主語a boy是wrap的動作執行者,應填現在分詞,故填wrapping。]

15.the [考查冠詞。根據前文這個11歲的孩子應是第二次出現,應特指,故填the。]

【思路導航】
本文是限內容、給提綱的控制性作文,由于是寫當下的社會現象,所以時態要以一般現在時為主。內容要符合英語習慣。比如:“私家車增加”要用英語表達為“越來越多的人擁有私家車”。主謂賓狀各個成分要完整;“事故頻發”使用happen或take place,且只能用主動語態不能用被動語態;“采取措施”用英語表達為“take steps(measures/action)”。
