It's believed that Luna had chased an animal out of her yard and got lost, somehow falling off a cliff and landing on a two-foot wide ledge. She remained there, alone, as her owner and searchers wildly looked for her.    "It was terrible because it was getting colder and she always sleeps next to me or my daughter," said Saryta Schaerer, Luna's owner.    "After she'd been missing for several days, there was a break in the case. Across the water, Ron Cheeke had heard Luna's cries for help. Cheeke decided to record the sound and notify the pet rescue group ROAM. He even went so far as to search the area in a boat to try to locate the exact source of the sound. I used a pot, and every time I banged on the pot, the dog barked back," Cheeke told CTV News.    Eventually, after searching on both water and land, a team found the scared dog and used a harness(保护带) to pull her back to safety and to her owner. "I almost fell over when I saw her—it was quite exciting," said Schaerer.    Cheeke said his own dog had died recently and he was motivated to help. "I lost my dog last year, so it was good," said Cheeke. "It's good to see it back with its owners."    "There's no feeling like it. When you're involved with this and you get the owner back with the pet, it's worth all the money in the world," added ROAM volunteer Andy Carswell.4、Which of the following happened to Luna first?A. Luna was found stuck on a narrow spot.B. Luna fell off a cliff and remained there.C. Luna's owner tried to find her back.D. Luna ran after an animal and went missing.5、Why did Cheeke keep knocking on the pot?A. To be sure where the cry came from. B. To draw attention to the passers-by.C.

A Dog Cried Tears of Joy When Found D. A Seven-day Rescue Ended in Peace    A new study led by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School has found that climate-impact labeling on a sample fast food menu significantly influenced people's food choices in favor of more climate-friendly items, such as vegetarian diet, chicken, or fish dishes.    The researchers enrolled over 5,000 online participants and presented them a sample menu resembling a fast food menu and asked them to choose a single item for a meal. While one group of participants received a menu with non-red meat items like salads or chicken sandwiches labeled "low climate impact", another one received a menu with red meat items, such as beef burgers, labeled "high climate impact." Finally, a third control group received a menu with QR codes on all items but no climate labels.    The analysis revealed that both the high and low climate-impact labels significantly reduced red meat selections compared to the control group. The high climate-impact labels had a strong effect, increasing non-beef choices by 23 percent compared to just 10 percent in the case of menus including low climate-impact labels.    "These results suggest that menu labeling, particularly labels warning that an item has high climate impact, can be an effective strategy for encouraging more sustainable food choices in a fast food setting," said the study lead author Julia Wolfson, an associate professor in the Department of International Health at the Bloomberg School.    Besides, participants were also asked to rate how healthy they believed the item they ordered was, and those who selected a more sustainable item perceived their choice to be healthier compared to those who selected a red meat item.    Since red meat consumption has been linked to a variety of health issues, including colorectal(结肠的) cancer and type 2 diabetes(糖尿病), the type of climate-impact labeling could prove highly effective in preventing illness. However, as the researchers warn, climate-impact labels may also have the unwanted side effect of making a choice seem healthier than it actually is.    "We look for labeling strategies that create 'win-wins' for promoting both more sustainable and healthier choices," Wolfson concluded.8、What is the finding of the study?A. Red meat consumption is closely linked to climate labeling.B. Climate-impact labels are gaining popularity worldwide.C. Climate-impact labeling influences people's food selection.D. Menu labeling contributes to less sustainable food choices.9、How did the researchers conduct the research?A. By citing examples. B.By group experimenting.C. By providing explanations. D. By analyzing cause and effect.10、What does the underlined word "perceived" mean in Paragraph 5?A. Detected. B. Required. C. Urged. D. Considered.11、What's the researchers' attitude towards climate-impact labeling?A. Skeptical. B. Objective.  C. Tolerant. D. Conservative.    Officials in New York City are using technology to cut down on noise on city streets. Cameras equipped with radar(雷达) sound collectors identify loud vehicles in an effort to catch drivers violating(违反) noise rules. New York officials say at least 71 people have received fines for operating cars or trucks that make too much noise. The city's Department of Environmental Protection now has plans to expand the use of technology to enforce(强制执行) noise rules.    City Council member Erik Bottcher told the Associated Press (AP) vehicles with illegally changed parts can produce extremely loud sounds. He said they have been a growing problem in recent years. Bottcher supports the use of radar to reduce noise in the city.    New York City already has some of the strongest rules in the country aimed at limiting noise on city streets. It has set permissible noise levels for building tools and vehicles. The new devices record the vehicle numbers of offenders, who then receive a violation notice in the mail. Owners face fines of $ 800 for theirfirst noise offense. Some could be required to pay up to $2,625 if they havethree violations and ignore court hearings.    The AP says there is evidence to support the idea that noise affects not only hearing but also mood and mental health. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP) even says there are possible links between noise and higher risks for heart disease and raised blood pressure.    However, some people in the city say the government efforts to quiet loud vehicles have gone too far. One person opposed to the policy is Phillip Franklin, a 30-year-old car lover from the Bronx area of New York. He launched an online effort to protest noise rules. “The majority of us live here in New York City, where noise is a part of our daily lives," said a document explaining his effort. Franklin noted that quiet vehicles can also present dangers to inattentive individuals walking around New York City.12、What can we infer from Paragraph 1?A. Technology is key in noise reduction.B. Cases of violating noise rules are reduced.C. More people will be punished for loud vehicles.D. The efforts to identify loud vehicles seemed in vain.13、What is a concern according to Bottcher?A. The wide use of radar. B. Increasing loud vehicles.C.The setting of noise levels. D. Illegally changed vehicles.14、What is the purpose of Paragraph 4?A. To summarize the previous paragraphs.B. To provide some proof for the policy.C. To add some background information.D. To introduce a new topic for discussion.15、What conclusion can we draw from the text?A. New Yorkers are all used to loud noise.B. Not all people approve of the noise rules.C. Noise has nothing to do with high blood pressure.D. Quiet vehicles will cause safety problems.二、七选五16、How to Overcome Anxiety    Anxiety is a healthy and normal emotion that everyone often feels.

They spend more on food, clothes, and entertainment, while they spend relatively little on books.    The vast majority of students spend a half of their pocket money on food, most of which is junk food; 30% on clothes and shoes, especially of famous brands; 15% on entertainment, such as watching films or buying sports goods; but only 5% on books and learning materials.    It's apparent that many senior high students haven't yet formed a correct concept of consumption. Firstly, we should make a consumption plan and spend more on the things useful for us. Secondly, we should still keep the traditional Chinese virtue of saving, and develop good consumption habits.
