11.An absolute description of the threat hanging over the world's mammals,reptiles,amphibians and other life forms has been published by the well-known scientific journal,Nature.A special analysis carried out by the journal indicates that an astonishing 41% of all amphibians on the planet now face extinction while 26% of mammal species and 13% of birds are similarly threatened.
Many species are already critically endangered and close to extinction,including the Sumatran elephant,Amur leopard and mountain gorilla.But also in danger of vanishing(消失)for the wild,it now appears,are animals that are currently rated as merely being endangered.
In each case,the finger of blame points directly at human activities.The continuing spread of agriculture is destroying millions of hectares of wild habitats every year,leaving animals without homes,while the introduction of newly-come species,often helped by humans,is also damaging native populations.At the same time,pollution and overfishing are destroying ocean ecosystems.
"Habitat destruction,pollution or overfishing either kill off wild creatures and plants or leaves them badly weakened,"said Derek Tittensor,an ocean ecologist at the World Conservation Monitoring Centre in Cambridge."The trouble is that in coming decades,the additional threat of worsening climate change will become more and more common and could then kill off these survivors."
The problem,according to Nature,is worsened because of the huge gaps in scientists knowledge about the planet's biodiversity.Evaluations of the total number of species of animals and plants alive vary from 2million to 50million.In addition,evaluations of current rates of species'disappearances vary from 500to 36,000a year."That is the real problem we face,"added Tittensor."The scale of uncertainty is huge."
In the end,however,the data indicate that the world is heading cruelly towards a mass extinction-which is defined as one involving a loss of 75% of species or more.This could arrive in less than a hundred years or could take a thousand,depending on extinction rates.

28.What's the main idea of the first two paragraphs?C
A.Figures about some wild animals are astonishing.
B.Nature is the famous journal around the world.
C.Many endangered species are close to extinction.
D.Some rare species have appeared around the world.
29.From paragraph 4we know that another future threat isC.
A.destruction of habitats
B.overfishing and pollution
C.the worsening climate change
D.killing off wild creatures and plants
30.What is the real problem we are facing now according to paragraph 5?D
A.The killing of wild creatures and cutting of trees.
B.The global warming caused by human beings.
C.The destruction of ocean ecosystem by pollution.
D.Evaluation of current rates of species'disappearances.
31.What does"This"in the last sentence refer to?A
A.mass extinction.B.extinction rates.C.extinction time.D.75% of species or more.

12.My first visit to Angkor Wat was in 1980.The country had been at war for many years and the temple was deserted and falling to pieces.Plants were growing out of the roofs,and trees were growing in the courtyards.
Today,the temple is the scene of a busy repair programme.A team of 15 Indian experts are organizing a workforce of 400 Cambodians,most of them women,who are cleaning,repairing and rebuilding parts of this temple.
As I walked through the courtyards,I noticed the Cambodian women devote hours to cleaning carefully a tiny area of stone.Boards are laid down to protect the precious painted stones while the repair work is going on.There are very few machines and little heavy euipment.Workers carry building materials in buckets at the end of long poles.Piles of stones lie in a corner of the courtyard,waiting to be replaced.
The work of cleaning the stones is watched over by three Indian chemists.It is a very slow task.First they clean the stones with brushes using buckets of a weak chemical.Then gaps between the stones are filled in.Finally another material is painted onto the stones which will protect them from water forever.
Work starts every day at 7a.m.a(chǎn)nd goes on until late afternoon six days a week,with a break at midday.
Evening is the best time to visit the temple,after the tour groups have left.As the sun sinks lower,shadows spread across the courtyard.After sunset,the sky turns pink.The grey stone towers take on a golden colour before turning pink.Nowhere else in the world can there be such a quiet,beautiful place.

A.the poor look of the temple Angkor Wat in 1980.
B.the history of the temple Angkor Wat
C.the repair work being done to the temple Angkor Wat
D.the difficulty in the repair work
13.According to the author,which of the following plays the least important role in the repair work?C
A.The women workers
B.The Indian workers
C.Machines
D.Skilled workers
14.The underlined sentence"the temple was deserted"possibly means thatA
A.there was no one in the temple and it was in a poor state
B.the temple was built on desert and nobody noticed it
C.the temple was very old with a long history
D.the temple was repaired by the Cambodians,most of whom women
