The time was 4:30 A.M. Looking out into the darkness, Annie remembered learning in school that most owls are active at night, when they hunt for food. During the day they sleep in hard-to-find spots. “Dad, why do you need to count owls?” she asked. “Its important for scientists to have current information about bird populations,” he explained. “We want to know which birds have decreased in number and whether any new kinds of birds are ing into a certain area. You and I will write down the kinds of birds that we see today and keep a record of how many times we see each kind. Then well send out a report to a scientific organization that is collecting information about birds from people all over the country.”Dad pulled into the parking lot of the state park. Then, with flashlights in hand, they began their hike into the woods. Annie zipped up her coat and tried to keep from trembling. She had not expected the morning to be so frigid. Luckily her gloves were in her pocket. Suddenly Annies father stopped and gestured for her to be still. Obeying, Annie did not take another step. She thought she heard a low crying up ahead. “Thats certainly a screech owl,” her father whispered. “Lets get a look at it.” After looking more closely, Annie could see that it was a small owl. Sensing danger, the owl narrowed its eyes and pulled its feathers tightly against its body. Annie carefully wrote down in her notebook that they had seen a screech owl.Walking a little farther, they came to a tall oak tree. “This looks like a perfect spot to attract owls,” Dad said. “Im going to play a recording of a mon call of the barred owl. Maybe we can get one to answer.” Annie could hardly believe her ears. The recorded call sounded as if the bird were asking, “Who cooks for you?” Moments later Annie thought she heard a return call in the distance. She held her breath and waited. Suddenly a huge bird landed very quietly on a branch directly above them. Annie had long forgotten how cold it was. She stood in wonder, shining her flashlight on the bird and studying it carefully. The barred owl was nearly two feet tall. Gray feathers surrounded its dark eyes. The bird did not stay long, but it did not matter. Annie would never forget the image of the powerful barred owl.56. Why did Annie and her father go to the state park?A. To take a hike in the woods.B. To record the call of barred owls.C. To collect information about birds.D. To protect the environment for wildlife.57. The underlined word “frigid” in Paragraph 3 probably means_.A. darkB. clearC. coldD. nice 58. In Paragraph 4, why did Annies father stop her suddenly?A. He noticed a screech owl.B. He heard somebody crying.C. He sensed they were in danger.D. He reminded her to take down notes. 59. How did Annie feel when she saw the barred owl?A. Bored.B. Relaxed.C. Frightened.D. Amazed. BWarley Woods munity(社区) TrustWele to our third newsletter of the year! Our main activity for March is our Walk for the Woods fundraising event on Saturday, 17th March, starting any time between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. We will be walking the distance between Warley Woods and Tipperary. It is indeed a long way80 miles. The more people that you can get to sponsor you, the more money we can raise to help look after our beautiful woodland. More information is available on our website. The Sunday volunteers planted two beeches and an oak last week. This was thanks to the money from the Big Tree Plant and to Lisa and Gordon Whitaker, whose friends gave money for the big trees instead of for their wedding presents. Thanks to everyone who took part. There were 15 volunteers at the Oral History Training Day which was led very ably by Julia Letts. The group will be meeting again and will start to interview the local people who have offered to tell their stories. We are happy to hear from others who would like to be interviewed about their memories of the Woods for the project. If you or anyone you know is interested, please call Viv Cole at the office. This project is financed by Heritage Lottery Fund. There was a huge response to the Forest Schools activities held at half term. These will be held again during the Easter holidays on the following dates: 4th April from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. for over 8s. On 12th April from 10 a. m. to 12 noon, there will be a Teddy Bears Picnic for the under 8s. All these must be booked in advance.

The first consideration when purchasing plants is to make reasonably sure that they are suitable for the conditions in which they are going to be housed. A general rule for most plants being brought indoors for the first time is to ensure that they have a reasonable temperature of not less than 60 degrees Fahrenheit, a position out of cold air, safe from pets and not exposed to strong sunlight. Plants love pany. When plants are growing together, they create an atmosphere of damp around themselves which is far more beneficial than hot dry conditions. A group of plants will also present a more pleasing picture and provide an opportunity for a creative arrangement. There is no secret to this. Just rely on your natural feeling for harmony. Watering and feeding plants are probably the two areas of care that are the least well understood, but, again, if you follow a few simple rules, your plants should do well. Cold water direct from the tap can have a frightening effect on the roots of delicate plants. Slightly warm water is therefore the answer. It is usually better to pour the water on to the soil on the surface of the pot rather than put the water into the pot holder at the bottom. Avoid giving small amount of water at regular intervalsit is much better to wet the soil right through the pot in one go and then to allow it to dry noticeably before giving it a further watering. The majority of indoor plants will be in active growth from March until October, and during this time, the established ones will benefit from regular feeding. This may mean feeding with a weak liquid fertilizer (肥料) at each watering or at intervals of a week or ten days with fertilizer at standard strength. It is important, however, to ensure that plants are not fed when growth is inactive, when the soil in the pot is dry, or too soon after the plant has been potted up.63. In Paragraph 2, the author mainly tells us to _.A. buy plants that help clean indoor airB. create a new environment with plantsC. put plants on the sunny side of the roomD. make sure of suitable conditions for plants 64. Whats the benefit of plants growing together?A. It provides owners good pany.B. It helps the air around them slightly wet.C. It makes it convenient to look after them.D. It allows owners to draw a pleasant picture.65. While watering the plants, what should we remember?A. Use water that is a little warm.B. Pour the water into the pot holder.C. Give small amount of water at one time.D. Consider further watering in dry weather.66. What is the best time to feed the plants?A. When the soil is dry.B. When their growth is active.C. When the temperature is high.D. When they have just been planted.DAs people have accurately observed, smiles are absent from early photographs. In 1852, for instance, a girl sat for herDaguerreotype, her head slightly turned, giving the camera an unsmiling look. She is preserved forever as a very serious girl indeed. Charles Darwin, a loving and playful parent, looks frozen in photographs. Why did our ancestors, from unknown sitters for family portraits(肖像画) to the great and famous, bee so sad in front of the camera?That severity is everywhere in Victorian photographs.However, you dont have to look very long at these unsmiling old photos to see how inplete the seemingly obvious answer is that they are freezing their faces in order to keep still for the long exposure times. In Julia Margaret Cameronsportrait of Tennysonthe poet dreams, his face a shadowed mask of genius. This is not simply a technique. Its an emotional choice. People in the past did not go around in a continual state of sorrow. In fact, the Victorians had a sense of humour even about the darkest aspects of their society.Laughter was not just mon in the past but accepted by society far more than it is today, from medieval carnivals(中世纪狂欢节)to Georgian print shops, where people gathered to look atthe latest funnies. Far from preventing festivals and fun, the Victorians, who invented photography, also createdChristmas as a celebration it is today. So the severity of people in 19th-century photographs cannot be the evidence of generalized sadness. This was not a society in permanent desperation. Instead, the true answer has to do with attitudes to portraiture itself.People who sat for early photographs understood it as a significant moment. Sitting for the camera was cheaper, quicker and meant that people who never had a chance to be painted could now be photographed; but people seem to have taken it seriously in the same way they would be a painted portrait. Like a portrait painting, it was intended as a timeless record of a person. To me those unsmiling people probably had as much fun as we do, if not more. But they felt no need to prove it with pictures. Instead, when they sat for a photograph, they thought about time, death and memory. Perhaps we should stop smiling sometimes, too.67. What do we know about the people in Victorian times?A. They laid importance on religious events.B. They were skilful at portrait painting.C. They valued their family life.D. They enjoyed themselves.68. The author mentions Portrait of Tennyson in Paragraph 2 to _.A. prove a theoryB. support his opinionC. introduce a paintingD. describe a technique69. The author thinks early people look frozen in old photos because _.A. they lived in a traditional societyB. they had to stay still for a long timeC. they regarded photography importantD. they held negative views about painting70. What is the authors attitude towards people not smiling in old photos?A. Sceptical. B. Critical.C. Neutral.D. Positive.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。According to statistics published by the University of Scranton, about 45 percent of Americans usually make New Years resolutionsand the most popular resolution islosing weight.
