Andrew White brings his four-legged friends Oliver and Amore to his neighborhood Petco pet stores in San Diego for a little takeout. He has brought the pair to a kibble refill station (宠物食品补给站) that allows owners to use their own containers (容器).
“It’s more affordable for everyone,” he said.
Like the price of many things these days, the price of owning a pet has been increasing. A report on petfoodindustry.com finds the cost of feeding household animals was up about 6% in March over last year. The overall pet category saw a 7.5% increase compared to March of 2021. The American Pet Products Association says a record $123.6 billion was spent in the US last year on pets. A survey shows 70% of American families now include a pet of some Kind.
In Kansas City, the KC Pet Project is seeing animals surrendered because of their owners’ money problems. “It is sad to see a number of pets coming in through our doors,” said KC Pet Project Chief Communications Officer Tori Fugate. “People are calling us every week saying, ‘I don’t want to leave my animal, but I can’t find a place to live with it.’”
One big cost is vet (兽医) care. The KC Pet Project gave out more than $96,000 last year to help owners with medical bills. Recent findings from Consumers’ Checkbook show costs differed widely from vet to vet in seven Cities they listed. So they say f pet owners want to save money, do some checking first. “If you know that your pets are going to need certain treatment, you can call around and get prices, and then decide what to do next,” said Consumers Checkbook Executive Editor Kevin Brasler.
In Florida, the Humane Society of Tampa Bay has increased its animal pantries (食品储藏室), so people can get free food for their dogs and cats.

The Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Nauru’s heartbreaking story could have one good consequence---other countries might learn from its mistakes.
For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived on the remote island of Nauru, far from western civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island.
However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. Then whaling ships and other traders began to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from l, 400 to 900.
Nauru’s real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate(磷酸盐) on the island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which is a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate.
A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine(露天矿). When a company strip-mines, it removes the top layer of soil. Then it takes away the material it wants. Strip-mining totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon.
In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.
Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem---their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing. By 2000, Nauru was almost financially ruined. Experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.
9．What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A．To seek help for Nauru’s problems. B．To give a warning to other countries.
C．To show the importance of money. D．To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.
10．What was Nauru like before the Europeans came?
A．Rich and powerful. B．Modern and open.
C．Peaceful and attractive. D．Greedy and aggressive.
11．Which of the following was a cause of Nauru’s financial problem?
A．Its leaders misused the money.
B．It spent too much repairing the island.
C．Its phosphate mining cost much money.
D．It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.
12．What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?
A．The ecological damage is difficult to repair.
B．The leaders will take the experts’words seriously.
C．The island was abandoned by the Nauruans.
D．The phosphate mines were destroyed.
Raise your hand if you've had your Smartphone stolen. According to the Federal Communication Commission（FCC．），the phone theft rate for the year 2013 is estimated to be about 369 per 100，000 individuals﹣with a higher rate in cities. The solution to that problem starts at home﹣with you. While 36 percent of Smartphone owners secure their phonic with a four﹣digit code，just 11 percent used a code longer than four digits，a password，or an unlock pattern；fully a thrice of those surveyed took none forth listed security measures at all.
Improved security can definitely helpdeterthefts. In cases where users set no password，it's quite easy to erase a phone and turn it around on the black market. While simple four﹣digit pass codes can help slow that process down，they are mathematically much cashier to crack（破解）than longer，more complicated passwords.
Technological measures have agreeably begun in the making process：Apple，lord example，introduced a feature which prevents someone from disabling the Find My aphonic service，erasing the device，or react. inviting an erased device. In the six months after that upstate，thefts of phones decreased by around a quarter in New York，San Francisco and London. Were everybody to set a strafing password on their devices﹣or work device makers to re. curie. Lasers to set a pass code，rather than merely suggesting it. it would be considerably harder tore thieves to resell those phonics elsewhere. Though. much as with cars，it wouldn't necessarily stop insolents where smart phones are taken apart.
The FCC，is asking that device makers better educate consumers about the anti﹣theft measures available on their devices. Really，it's a matter of common sense：just as you wouldn't leave your house unlocked﹣especially if you lived in an urban area﹣you shouldn't walk around with an unprotected phone. Because these days. the amulet oversensitive and personal information you keep in your phone may actually be more valuable than what you leave in your house. So，for your own sake，fire up that Smartphone and set a secure pass code，and do it right now.
13．Which of the following can be the FCC's conclusion?

B．Smartphone's should be put at home so that they won't be stolen.

Andrew White brings his four-legged friends Oliver and Amore to his neighborhood Petco pet stores in San Diego for a little takeout. He has brought the pair to a kibble refill station (宠物食品补给站) that allows owners to use their own containers (容器).
“It’s more affordable for everyone,” he said.
Like the price of many things these days, the price of owning a pet has been increasing. A report on petfoodindustry.com finds the cost of feeding household animals was up about 6% in March over last year. The overall pet category saw a 7.5% increase compared to March of 2021.

One big cost is vet (兽医) care. The KC Pet Project gave out more than $96,000 last year to help owners with medical bills. Recent findings from Consumers’ Checkbook show costs differed widely from vet to vet in seven Cities they listed. So they say f pet owners want to save money, do some checking first. “If you know that your pets are going to need certain treatment, you can call around and get prices, and then decide what to do next,” said Consumers Checkbook Executive Editor Kevin Brasler.
In Florida, the Humane Society of Tampa Bay has increased its animal pantries (食品储藏室), so people can get free food for their dogs and cats.

The Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Nauru’s heartbreaking story could have one good consequence---other countries might learn from its mistakes.
For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived on the remote island of Nauru, far from western civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island.
However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. Then whaling ships and other traders began to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from l, 400 to 900.
Nauru’s real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate(磷酸盐) on the island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which is a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate.
A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine(露天矿). When a company strip-mines, it removes the top layer of soil. Then it takes away the material it wants. Strip-mining totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon.
In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.
Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem---their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing. By 2000, Nauru was almost financially ruined. Experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.
9．What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A．To seek help for Nauru’s problems. B．To give a warning to other countries.
C．To show the importance of money. D．To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.
10．What was Nauru like before the Europeans came?
A．Rich and powerful. B．Modern and open.
C．Peaceful and attractive. D．Greedy and aggressive.
11．Which of the following was a cause of Nauru’s financial problem?
A．Its leaders misused the money.
B．It spent too much repairing the island.
C．Its phosphate mining cost much money.
D．It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.
12．What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?
A．The ecological damage is difficult to repair.
B．The leaders will take the experts’words seriously.
C．The island was abandoned by the Nauruans.
D．The phosphate mines were destroyed.

Lasers to set a pass code，rather than merely suggesting it. it would be considerably harder tore thieves to resell those phonics elsewhere. Though. much as with cars，it wouldn't necessarily stop insolents where smart phones are taken apart.
The FCC，is asking that device makers better educate consumers about the anti﹣theft measures available on their devices.

Because these days. the amulet oversensitive and personal information you keep in your phone may actually be more valuable than what you leave in your house.

8.考查不定代词。句意：音乐会在响亮的流行音乐中结束，大厅里的每个人都站起来随着音乐跳舞。此处表示所有人都站起来随着音乐跳舞，应用代词everyone，表示“所有人”。故将anyone改为everyone。
9.考查介词。句意：音乐会在响亮的流行音乐中结束，大厅里的每个人都站起来随着音乐跳舞。固定搭配dance to the music“伴随着音乐跳舞”，to是介词。故将with改为to。
