But for pets new to Marlborough, help is at hand.Marlborough SPCA and the Railway Caf， in Blenheim, have joined forces to help welcome pets and their people to the region with a fortnightly morning tea. They hope the morning teas will get tails and tongues wagging as well as giving advice on how to make the move smoother.Railway Caf owner Leanne Harris came up with the innovative (创新的) plan as a way to help welcome people to the area. Leanne moved to Marlborough from Auckland two years ago and said she initially struggled to find friends and feel part of the community. “Coming from Auckland I thought people would open their doors and that there would be neighbours calling round with cake. I expected people to come to me and, of course, it wasnt like that. I did get lonely. I hope to save newcomers having to wait as long as I did to feel part of it all. I would like to welcome them to the town.”Free platters of sandwiches, cakes and other goodies will be on offer, for the people, while there will be special handmade yoghurt and banana treats for the dogs. The morning teas will take place in the covered area at the back of the popular caf beside the railway station off Grove Rd. Leanne said she was happy to devote both her time and effort into giving back to the community and felt the venture was a great fit with the SPCA. “Volunteering is such an amazing thing to do and it changed things for me completely, and I met some amazing people with similar interests.”SPCA Op Shop manager Karina Greenall, originally from the United Kingdom, said she also wanted to help. “I can give advice on how to resettle pets, the best parks to go to, where the best walks are and where the vet centers are in town. There will be volunteering opportunities too for people where they can help out and hopefully make friends too.”篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了马尔堡一家咖啡店的老板想出的一个主意：通过提供上午茶，来帮助刚来到这个地方定居的人们和宠物更好地适应这里的生活。4How will Marlborough SPCA and the Railway Caf help new pets?ABy offering morning teas.BBy giving advice to them.CBy communicating with them.DBy providing accommodation to them.答案：A细节理解题。根据第二段首句“Marlborough SPCA and the Railway Caf， in Blenheim, have joined forces to help welcome pets and their people to the region with a fortnightly morning tea.”可知，这家咖啡馆会通过提供上午茶来帮助刚来到这个地方的宠物和定居者。故选A。5What was Leannes plan originally intended for?ASaving animals.BHelping newcomers.CMaking more friends.DExpanding her business.答案：B细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句“I hope to save newcomers having to wait as long as I did to feel part of it all.

In the late summer and early autumn, the butterflies fly south, from Canada and the United States mainland to Mexico. But Darlene Burgess still keeps seeing the bright, colorful insects in Canada, which greatly surprises her.Darlene Burgess notices a large number of monarch butterflies at Point Pelee National Park in Ontario, Canada, which attract a lot of visitors. “Nice as this is to see, I really wish I wouldnt see it because theyre running out of time，” she said. “Its really not good for them.” Their large numbers are not normal for late October. Monarchs normally arrive in Mexico around November 1st.There are a few reasons why the monarchs did not fly south when they were supposed to. Some monarchs were born late. Some did not move south because of warm weather. Others could not fly south because of strong winds that lasted for weeks. Now, they may be stuck because temperatures are starting to fall. Elizabeth Howard is a biologist and director of a nonprofit group called Journey North. She said the Monarchs muscles do not work well when temperatures go below 15 degrees Celsius.“Monarchs have faced a number of problems in recent years. Habitat loss, climate change, and chemical pesticides have hurt the butterfly population, but it seemed that the climate change contributed most to the problems，” said Lincoln Brower, a biology professor at Sweet Briar College. Brower has been studying the butterflies since 1954. The colorful creatures also have a decreasing food supply, especially in the form of milkweed, which are the only food they can eat when they are caterpillars (毛虫)篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道。对于许多美国人来说，帝王蝶预示着季节的变化。但如今，帝王蝶却因气候变化等因素的影响而改变了迁徙的习惯。8Why does Darlene Burgess feel surprised?AShe feels the season has greatly changed.BShe spots many colorful butterflies in Canada.CMany monarch butterflies dont fly to America.DA lot of monarch butterflies dont leave Canada in autumn.答案：D细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句“But Darlene Burgess still keeps seeing the bright, colorful insects in Canada, which greatly surprises her.”可知，达琳伯吉斯仍在加拿大的秋天看到帝王蝶，这个现象使她感到奇怪。故选D项。9What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 refer to?AMany butterflies appear in late October.BThe monarch butterflies are bright and colorful.CThe number of monarch butterflies is increasing.DA lot of monarch butterflies make a beautiful scene.答案：D指代判断题。根据文章第二段第一句“Darlene Burgess notices a large number of monarch butterflies at Point Pelee National Park in Ontario, Canada, which attract a lot of visitors.”可知，大量帝王蝶在位于安大略的皮利角国家公园飞舞，吸引了大批游客。由此可猜测，此处的this应指代上一句提到的这一景象。故选D项。10What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?AThe habits of the monarch butterflies.BThe changes of the monarch butterflies.CSome reasons affecting the monarch butterflies.DThe living conditions of the monarch butterflies.答案：C段落大意题。文章第三段第一句“There are a few reasons why the monarchs did not fly south when they were supposed to.”为本段的主题句，指出帝王蝶在本该飞往南方时却选择留下有几个原因，下文具体列举了各种理由。故选C项。11What has most probably caused monarch butterflies problems?AHabitat loss. BClimate change.CFood shortage. DChemical pesticides.答案：B细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的“Monarchs have faced a number of problems in recent years. Habitat loss, climate change, and chemical pesticides have hurt the butterfly population, but it seemed that the climate change contributed most to the problems”可知，帝王蝶面临很多问题，如栖息地的丧失、气候的变化以及杀虫剂的危害等，其中气候变化是最主要的问题。故选B项。- 9 -
