It has been used by more than 100 million people. In December, the school announced it also would begin offering a special certificate, known as MITx, for people who complete certain online courses. Harvard has long offered courses to a wider population through a similar program.The MITx will serve as the foundation for the new learning platform.MIT President Susan Hockfield said more than 120,000 people signed up for the first MITx course. She said Harvard and MIT hope other universities will join them in offering courses on the open-source edX platform.“Fasten your seatbelts,” Hockfield said.Other universities, including Stanford, Yale and Carnegie-Mellon, have been experimenting with teaching to a global population online.The Harvard-MIT program will be monitored by a not-for-profit(非盈利的)organization based in Cambridge, to be owned equally by the two universities. Both MIT and Harvard have provided $30 million to start the program. They also plan to use the edX platform to research how students learn and which teaching methods and tools are most successful. （1）According to this text, edX is 　　　.A.a part of the free MIT OpenCourseWareB.a free computer program by MIT and HarvardC.a Harvard-MIT platform of free online coursesD.a free program online for universities worldwide（2）What is said about online education in the text?A.Universities have been trying online courses.B.About 2,000 online courses have been offered.C.Over 100 million people have finished courses online.D.Stanford and Yale together have courses similar to edX. （3）The underlined part in the text probably means“　　　”.A.Get ready for the difficultiesB.Get ready for this educational changeC.Get prepared to complete the online coursesD.Get prepared to make materials for the edX courses（4）What can be said about MITx according to the text?A.It is first offered as part of the edX learning program.B.It is another free MIT-Harvard online learning program.C.It is a standard to recognize online learners’ achievement.D.It is a new kind of free online course of Harvard and MIT.  B3.Easter(复活节)is still a great day for worship,candy in baskets and running around the yard finding eggs,but every year it gets quite a bit worse for bunnies.And no,not because the kids like to pull their ears.The culprit is climate change,and some researchers found that rising temperatures are having harmful effects on at least five species of rabbit in the US.Take the Lower Keys Marsh rabbit, for instance.An endangered species that lives in the Lower Florida Keys,this species of cottontail is a great swimmer—it lives on the islands!—but it is already severely affected by development and now by rising sea levels.According to the Center for Biological Diversity,an ocean level rise of only 0.6 meters will send these guys jumping to higher ground and a 0.9-meter rise would wipe out their habitat(栖息地)completely.The snowshoe hare,on the other hand,has a color issue.Most of these rabbits change their fur color from white in the wintertime to brown in the summer,each designed to give them better cover from predators(捕食者).As the number of days with snow decreases all across the country,however,more and more bunnies are being left in white fur during brown dirt days of both fall and spring,making them an easier mark for predators.Researchers know that the color change is controlled by the number of hours of sunlight,but whether the rabbit will be able to adapt quick enough to survive is a big question.The National Wildlife Federation has reported that hunters have noticed their numbers are already markedly down.American pikas or rock rabbits,a relative of rabbits and hares,might be the first of these species to go extinct due to climate change.About 7-8 inches long,pikas live high in the cool,damp mountains west of the Rocky Mountains.As global temperatures rise,they would naturally migrate(迁移)to higher ground—but they already occupy the mountaintops.They can’t go any higher.The National Wildlife Federation reports that they might not be able to stand the new temperatures as their habitat heats up.The volcano rabbit has the same problem.These rabbits live on the slopes of volcanoes in Mexico,and recent studies have shown that the lower range of their habitat has already shifted upward about 700 meters,but there are not suitable plants for them to move higher,so they are stuck in the middle. Scientists are concerned about their populations.Native to the US,pygmy rabbits weigh less than 1 pound and live in the American West.They are believed to be the smallest rabbits in the world.Their habitats have been destroyed by development.Several populations,such as the Columbia Basin pygmy,almost went extinct and were saved by zoo breeding programs.Pygmy rabbits also rely on winter cover by digging tunnels through the snow to escape predators,but lesser snowfall is leaving them exposed.All of this gives new meaning to dressing up in a giant bunny costume this Easter. （1）The writer mentions Easter at the beginning of the passage in order to　　　.A.show the importance of Easter DayB.introduce the issue about bunniesC.remind people of Easter traditionsD.discuss the relationship between Easter and bunnies（2）The word “culprit”(Paragraph 2)is closest in meaning to　　　.A.criminal                                          B.judge                            C.victim                            D.producer（3）According to the passage,some rabbits can now be easily discovered by predators because they　　　.A.are exposed to more skillful huntersB.have moved to habitats with fewer plantsC.haven’t adapted themselves to climate changeD.can’t change their fur color into white in the fall and the spring（4）The problem faced by volcano rabbits and rock rabbits is that　　　.A.both are affected by less snowB.both are affected by rising sea levelsC.neither can find enough foodD.neither can migrate to higher places（5）Which best describes the writer’s tone in the passage?A.Approving.                   B.Concerned.       C.Enthusiastic.                 D.Doubtful.  4.短文改错Will our parents check our homework? Not really. Since having already growing up, we can't act like little baby and rely on our parents all the time.When I was in Grade Three, my parents asked us to check my homework by myself. I don't know what to do in that time, so I cried. After that, I got used to correct my own homework and became more independent.Check homework by ourselves is very good habit. It can not only help us find mistakes in exams more easy but also let our parents worry less about our studies. Because parents will leave us some day, so we should learn to do everything by ourselves.  5.假定你是李华。你所在的校乒乓球队正在招收新队员。请给你的留学生朋友Eric写封邮件邀请他加入，内容包括：（1）球队活动；（2）报名方式及截止日期。注意：1.词数100左右；（3）可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。
