But not every animal has been through the misery that established the bond between three normally opposing male predators（捕食者）.Back in 2001, police searched a drug dealer's house in Atlanta, Georgia. In the basement, they came across a heartbreaking sight. There sat three terrified cubs （幼崽） found skin and bones that certainly didn’t belong in anyone’s home.The African lion, Leo, had been stuffed inside a small container with an open wound on his face. Shere Khan, the Bengal tiger, looked bony, and the black bear, Baloo, was wearing a chain so small that it had become embedded into his flesh.But their nightmare was finally over. The Georgia Department of Natural Resources took them to Noah's Ark Animal Sanctuary, a nonprofit animal rescue in Locust Grove. “When they were first brought to the sanctuary,Baloo,Shere Khan,and Leo were injured, frightened and clinging to one another for comfort," guardian Allison Hedgecoth told HuffPost. And as they got more comfortable, they accompanied each other, cuddled, and played together. Clearly, they were a bonded  trial . Sanctuary staff anticipated the need to separate the friends once they reached maturity, as they would likely grow apart. After all, it's the natural order in the animal kingdom. But the trio, known as BLT (bear, lion, tiger),never left each other's sides. The sanctuary ultimately decided to keep them together.Baloo, the playful one, loved teasing Leo with gentle bites. And the affectionate Shere Khan could often be found curling up to either of his brothers. “Even though they live in a three-acre enclosure, they're usually within 100 feet of each other," Allison told Inside Edition. “That's proof that they're not just coexisting or cohabiting, they actually do enjoy each other's company."24. Why could the three animals live as a pack?
A. Because they preferred hunting in groups.B. Because they shared a miserable experience.C.Because they were terrified to be caught alone.D.Because they were rescued from the basement.

A. A diary entry.C. A feature story.B. A children's fiction.D.A science documentary.
CParents' deciding to stay at home with their teens is not necessarily new. Many caregivers have realized the importance of devoting extra time to their teens. Mary Dixon Lebeau took an early retirement from her job five years ago. She wanted to spend more time with her then 14-year-old daughter, Libby.“My daughter suffers from anxiety,,and I believe having a parent 100% present can help her deal with daily problems.

What Is the Most Desirable Education for Teens?DA study by Stockholm University and ETH Zurich scientists found that all rainwater on Earth is unsafe to drink due to the levels of PFAS（全氟烷基物质），or poisonous chemicals. These PFAS or poisonous chemicals are becoming a part of a future reality that humans must, unfortunately, learn to live with. PFAS were first found in shampoo, packaging, and even makeup but have begun to spread into our Earth. A professor at Stockholm University and lead author of the study, Ian Cousins noted,  “There is nowhere on Earth where-the rain would be safer to drink, according to the measurements that we have taken.”Using their study's data, Cousins and his team illustrated that chemical levels in rainwater from remote areas are unsafe and above the US Environmental Protection. Agency’s (EPA) drinking water guidelines. Within this study, they took rainwater samples, from extremely remote areas like Antarctica or the Tibetan plateau. Although these areas are originally known as being remote and untouched, their PFAS levels are around 14 times  higher than the US EPA guidelines.PFAS have been associated with a range of serious health problems including cancer, childhood behavioral and learning problems， immune system disorders，and high cholesterol（胆固醇）：Cousins continued by saying，“Based on the latest US guidelines for PFOA（全氟辛酸）in drinking water，rainwater everywhere would be judged unsafe to drink. Although in the industrial world we don't often drink rainwater, many people around the world expect it to be safe to drink and it supplies many of our drinking water sources.”Managing Director of the Food Packaging Forum, Dr Jane Muncke,  said, “The vast amounts that it will cost to reduce PFAS in drinking water to levels that are safe based on current scientific understanding need to be paid by the industries producing and using these chemicals. The time to act is now."32. Which of the following is true about PFAS?A. They were initially found in rainwater,B. Their levels affect the security of rainwater.C. They are mainly present in makeup products.D. They will be completely removed in the future.3.Why did researchers take rainwater samples from areas like Antarctica?A.

What does the author want to convey in the third paragraph?A. It's time to stop people from drinking rainwater.B. It's necessary to improve the safety of rainwater.C. It's promising to expand. Drinking water sources.D. I's tough to address PFAS-related health issues.35. Which statement will Dr Jane Muncke probably agree with?A. Scientists should be devoted to reducing PFAS.B. Public efforts are required to obtain safe drinking water.C. Some industries should bear the costs of reducing PFAS.D. The chemical industry is responsible for the unsafety of PFAS.二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的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。Four Things You Must Know About College DegreesAre you getting ready to begin college, to head back to school after a few years off, or are you just exploring your options?36.

When he got ready for bed, Dad would empty his pocket and toss his coins into the jar. As a small boy I was always fascinated at the sounds the coins made as they were dropped into the jar. They landed with a merry jingle to a dull thud（沉闷声） as the jar was filled. I used to kneel down on the floor in. front of the jar and admire the copper and silver circles that shone like a pirate's treasure when the sun poured through the bedroom window.When the jar was filled, Dad would take it to the bank. Stacked neatly in a small cardboard box, the coins were placed between Dad and me on the seat of his old truck. Each and every time, Dad would look at me hopefully. “Those coins are going to keep you put of the textile mill,  son. You are going to do better than me." Also, each and every time, as he slid the box of rolled coins across the counter at the bank towards the cashier, he would grin proudly. “These are for my son's college fund; He'll never work at the mill all his life like me.”We would always celebrate each deposit by stopping for an ice-cream cone. I always got chocolate. Dad always got vanilla. When the clerk at the ice-cream parlor handed Dad his change, he would show me the few coins nestled in his palm. “When we get home, we'll start filling the jar again.”He always let me drop the first coins into the empty jar. As they rattled around with a brief, happy jingle, we grinned at each other. “You'll get to college on pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters,” he said. “But you'll get there. I'll see to that.”Years later, I finished college, landed a job in a big city, met my wonderful wife Susan and had our daughter Jessica.注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Once, when we visited my parents, I led Susan into the bedroom.   Looking at the jar with the shining coins,  Susan's eyes were misted with tears.
