Opera is an art frm that celebrates the human vice. N ther art frm creates excitement and mves the heart in the way that pera des, especially when perfrmed by a great singer. Opera is an imprtant part f the Western classical music traditin. It uses music, wrds, and actins t bring a dramatic stry t life. Opera started in Italy at the end f the 16th century and later became ppular thrughut Eurpe. Over the years, it has respnded t varius musicals. In recent decades, much wider audiences have been intrduced t pera thrugh mdern recrding technlgy. Sme singers have becme celebrities thanks t perfrming n radi, n TV, and in the cinema.

These demands may be unrealistic and pssibly harmful. Opera singers simply cannt make a sund big enugh t fill a large theater r cncert hall withut a micrphne if their bdy weight is t lw. Emphasizing physical appearance ver singing ability may cause audiences t miss ut n the human vice at its best.
There are n easy slutins t pera's prblems and there are many different pinins abut the value f pera. Hwever, every year many yung peple register fr music curses with hpes and dreams f develping their talents in this special art frm. The fact that pera has survived many bstacles and cntinues t attract the rising generatin shws that it remains a respected art frm full f value.

Ask the turists frm arund the wrld that fld int Yellwstne Natinal Park what they mst hpe t see, and their answer is ften the same: a grizzly bear.
“Grizzly bears are re-ccupying large areas f their frmer range,” says bear bilgist Chris Servheen. As grizzly bears expand their range int places where they haven’t been seen in a century r mre, they’re increasingly being sighted by humans.
The western half f the US was full f grizzlies when Eurpeans came, with a rugh number f 50,000 r mre living alngside Native Americans. By the early 1970s, after centuries f cruel and cntinuus hunting by settlers, 600 t 800 grizzlies remained n a mere 2 percent f their frmer range in the Nrthern Rckies. In 1975, grizzlies were listed under the Endangered Species Act.
Tday, there are abut 2,000 r mre grizzly bears in the US.

If peple remve fd and attractants frm their yards and campsites, grizzlies will typically pass by withut truble. Putting electric fencing arund chicken huses and ther farm animal quarters is als highly effective at getting grizzlies away. “Our hpe is t have a clean, attractant-free place where bears can pass thrugh withut learning bad habits,” says James Jnkel, lngtime bilgist wh manages bears in and arund Missula.
5. Hw d Americans lk at grizzlies?
A. They cause mixed feelings in peple.
B. They shuld be kept in natinal parks.
C. They are f high scientific value.
D. They are a symbl f American culture.
6. What has helped the increase f the grizzly ppulatin?

C. The prtectin by law since 1975.
D. The supprt f Native Americans.

A. The ppsitin f cnservatin grups.
B. The successful cmeback f grizzlies.
C. The vice f the bilgists.
D. The lcal farmers’ advcates.
8. What can be inferred frm the last paragraph?
