Fr six hundred years, the Twer f Lndn's mst extic (异域风情的) prisners were animals.
The Menagerie (动物园) began as a result f kings exchanging rare and strange animals as gifts. In 1235, Henry Ⅲ was delighted t be presented with three wildcats by the Hly Rman Emperr Frederick Ⅱ. These inspired him t start a z at the Twer. Henry's ‘wildcats’， althugh described as lepards, were prbably lins. These are the ancestrs f the three lins that still appear n the England ftball team's shirts tday.
In 1252 the lins were jined by a ‘white bear’ prbably a plar bear—given by the King f Nrway. In 1255, the King f France sent the first elephant ever seen in England and ‘peple flcked tgether t see the nvel sight’. Sadly, the elephant died tw years later.
Pr treatment and cramped cnditins meant many f the animals did nt survive fr lng. But the Menagerie cntinued t grw. Edward I created a permanent new hme fr the Menagerie at the western entrance t the Twer in what became knwn as the Lin Twer. The terrifying sunds and smells f wild animals must have bth impressed and scared visitrs.
By 1622, the cllectin had been extended t include three eagles, tw pumas, a tiger and a jackal, as well as lins and lepards, wh were the main attractins.
Hwever, the end f the Menagerie came in the 1830s. Campaigners had begun t raise cncerns, and the animals were expensive, ccasinally dangerus and a nuisance t the guardsmen. The Duke f Wellingtn sent 150 f the beasts t a new z in Regent's Park, tday's Lndn Z.
Despite Alfred Cps's best effrts t carry n, several further incidents including an escaped wlf and a mnkey that bit a guardsman's leg cnvinced King William IV t shut dwn the Menagerie fr gd in 1835. The remaining animals were sld t zs and travelling shws and the Lin Twer was later demlished.
28. What d we knw abut the elephant presented in 1255?
A. It caused big truble.
B. It received much attentin.
C. It lived painfully in the Lin Twer.
D. It died befre the plar bear came in.
29. Hw many types f animals at the Menagerie are mentined in the text?
A. Eight. B. Nine. C. Ten. D. Eleven.
30. Fr what reasn was the Menagerie clsed at last?
A. Security cncerns.
B. The decline f turism.
C. Pressure frm campaigners.
D. Financial burden t raise the animals.
31. Which is the best title fr the text?
A. The Ryal Menagerie
B. Gifts Presented t the King
C. Turist Attractins in Lndn
D. Miserable Life in the Lin Twer
D
Each year, Jn Aars, a senir researcher at the Nrwegian Plar Institute and his clleagues capture arund 70 plar bears in Svalbard and fit them with a tracking cllar (颈圈) which cntinuusly recrds mvement. Once a day the cllar makes a satellite call, sending the last 24 hurs f data back t the Institute. “Data frm mvement has been very imprtant t understand hw they react and hw they might respnd t climate change,” Aars explains.
A warming climate means a vast amunt f the regin, and rising temperatures are als preventing seasnal ice which melts and recurs annually frm frming in places it nce did. Several seal species — plar bears’ main prey (猎物) — rely n sea ice, and mre ften than nt, s d plar bears. But these creatures are being frced t mve with the times.
“Because cnditins change, plar bears will spend mre time n land and lk fr different ptins,” Aars explains. “They hunt reindeer (驯鹿) and they will take mre birds and eggs. We have seen that bears are in different areas frm where they used t be—s much further nrth.”
Accrding t NASA, summer ice in the Arctic is decreasing by mre than each decade, and this year the Natinal Snw and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) reprted the secnd lwest levels f summer sea ice ever recrded. The 14 lwest levels f sea ice have all ccurred in the past 14 years, accrding t the NSIDC.
“Yu dn’t find plar bears anywhere in the Arctic where yu dn’t have sea ice at least seasnally,” says Aars! “Changes are s significant and s fast: we will reach sme stage in the future where it will get much harder t be a plar bear in Svalbard.”
32. Why des the cllar make a satellite call daily?
A. T btain sme infrmatin.
B. T ffer necessary help t plar bears.
C. T see whether plar bears are still alive.
D. T knw if plar bears are being attacked.
33. What des the third paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Why plar bears prefer birds.
B. What has caused the changes.
C. Where plar bears can be fund.
D. Hw plar bears react t the changes.
34. What affects plar bears’ life the mst?
A. Freezing weather.
B. Decreasing sea ice.
C. Mre and mre seals.
D. Peple’s hunting them.
35. What can we infer abut the sea ice frm paragraph 4?
A. It has been staying the same in the past ten years.
B. It started decreasing less than a decade ag.
C. It is becming less and less.
D. It is getting mre and mre.

Fr six hundred years, the Twer f Lndn's mst extic (异域风情的) prisners were animals.
The Menagerie (动物园) began as a result f kings exchanging rare and strange animals as gifts. In 1235, Henry Ⅲ was delighted t be presented with three wildcats by the Hly Rman Emperr Frederick Ⅱ. These inspired him t start a z at the Twer. Henry's ‘wildcats’， althugh described as lepards, were prbably lins. These are the ancestrs f the three lins that still appear n the England ftball team's shirts tday.
In 1252 the lins were jined by a ‘white bear’ prbably a plar bear—given by the King f Nrway. In 1255, the King f France sent the first elephant ever seen in England and ‘peple flcked tgether t see the nvel sight’. Sadly, the elephant died tw years later.
Pr treatment and cramped cnditins meant many f the animals did nt survive fr lng. But the Menagerie cntinued t grw. Edward I created a permanent new hme fr the Menagerie at the western entrance t the Twer in what became knwn as the Lin Twer. The terrifying sunds and smells f wild animals must have bth impressed and scared visitrs.
By 1622, the cllectin had been extended t include three eagles, tw pumas, a tiger and a jackal, as well as lins and lepards, wh were the main attractins.
Hwever, the end f the Menagerie came in the 1830s. Campaigners had begun t raise cncerns, and the animals were expensive, ccasinally dangerus and a nuisance t the guardsmen. The Duke f Wellingtn sent 150 f the beasts t a new z in Regent's Park, tday's Lndn Z.
Despite Alfred Cps's best effrts t carry n, several further incidents including an escaped wlf and a mnkey that bit a guardsman's leg cnvinced King William IV t shut dwn the Menagerie fr gd in 1835. The remaining animals were sld t zs and travelling shws and the Lin Twer was later demlished.
28. What d we knw abut the elephant presented in 1255?
A. It caused big truble.
B. It received much attentin.
C. It lived painfully in the Lin Twer.
D. It died befre the plar bear came in.
29. Hw many types f animals at the Menagerie are mentined in the text?
A. Eight. B. Nine. C. Ten. D. Eleven.
30. Fr what reasn was the Menagerie clsed at last?
A. Security cncerns.
B. The decline f turism.
C. Pressure frm campaigners.
D. Financial burden t raise the animals.
31. Which is the best title fr the text?
A. The Ryal Menagerie
B. Gifts Presented t the King
C. Turist Attractins in Lndn
D. Miserable Life in the Lin Twer
D
Each year, Jn Aars, a senir researcher at the Nrwegian Plar Institute and his clleagues capture arund 70 plar bears in Svalbard and fit them with a tracking cllar (颈圈) which cntinuusly recrds mvement. Once a day the cllar makes a satellite call, sending the last 24 hurs f data back t the Institute. “Data frm mvement has been very imprtant t understand hw they react and hw they might respnd t climate change,” Aars explains.
A warming climate means a vast amunt f the regin, and rising temperatures are als preventing seasnal ice which melts and recurs annually frm frming in places it nce did. Several seal species — plar bears’ main prey (猎物) — rely n sea ice, and mre ften than nt, s d plar bears. But these creatures are being frced t mve with the times.
“Because cnditins change, plar bears will spend mre time n land and lk fr different ptins,” Aars explains. “They hunt reindeer (驯鹿) and they will take mre birds and eggs. We have seen that bears are in different areas frm where they used t be—s much further nrth.”
Accrding t NASA, summer ice in the Arctic is decreasing by mre than each decade, and this year the Natinal Snw and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) reprted the secnd lwest levels f summer sea ice ever recrded. The 14 lwest levels f sea ice have all ccurred in the past 14 years, accrding t the NSIDC.
“Yu dn’t find plar bears anywhere in the Arctic where yu dn’t have sea ice at least seasnally,” says Aars! “Changes are s significant and s fast: we will reach sme stage in the future where it will get much harder t be a plar bear in Svalbard.”
32. Why des the cllar make a satellite call daily?
A. T btain sme infrmatin.
B. T ffer necessary help t plar bears.
C. T see whether plar bears are still alive.
D. T knw if plar bears are being attacked.
33. What des the third paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Why plar bears prefer birds.
B. What has caused the changes.
C. Where plar bears can be fund.
D. Hw plar bears react t the changes.
34. What affects plar bears’ life the mst?
A. Freezing weather.
B. Decreasing sea ice.
C. Mre and mre seals.
D. Peple’s hunting them.
35. What can we infer abut the sea ice frm paragraph 4?
A. It has been staying the same in the past ten years.
B. It started decreasing less than a decade ag.
C. It is becming less and less.
D. It is getting mre and mre.
