on the truck. “Maybe some kid who is visiting one of our neighbors is doing it. Or maybe a grownup is angry at Uncle Joe,” I thought. But I couldn’t think of anyone who would be angry at him. The sun got hotter and hotter. I got sleepier and sleepier. Suddenly I heard a long “s” sound. My eyes opened, and I looked at the strangest sight I’d ever seen. A crow(乌鸦 ) was standing beside Uncle Joe’s back tire. With its sharp pointed mouth, it pressed against the tire valve(阀门 ). Sssst! I could almost hear the crow laugh with pleasure as it spread its wings in the cool wind from the tire. “Uncle Joe,” I shouted, running toward the house. “You’re never going to believe this...” 28. Why was Uncle Joe unhappy? A. He hit something while driving. B. It was too hot to work outside. C. The garage man could not fix his truck. D. He had two flat tires on his truck. 29. About the person who played a trick on Uncle Joe the garage man first thought of ________. A. the author B. the neighborhood kids C. an adult who was angry at Uncle Joe D. a kid who was visiting Uncle Joe’s neighbor 30. The author thought the crow let the air out of the tires to ______.

The show is the latest hit from Hunan TV, which has attracted more than 196,000 followers. In each show, popular stars are given zookeeping tasks that allow them to interact with wild animals in order to bring humans and animals closer together. Animal welfare advocates say that is exactly what should be avoided. Dave Neale of Animals Asia (an advocacy group) said, “It is hugely misleading to the public about the needs and welfare of captive animals (圈养动物 ) and putting the animals’ welfare and health at risk.” “What they don’t realize is that wild animals need space,” said Xie Yan, a zoologist and China director of the Wildlife Conservation Society. “Putting clothes on chimpanzees is not as adorable as you may think from the animals’ point of view. I guess their idea was to get their viewers to love and protect the animals,” Ms. Xie added, “but we do not agree with this approach for entertainment.” Using famous people to focus public attention on wildlife is a mon practice in conservation campaigns. The Chinese basketball legend Yao Ming went to Africa and highlighted the problem of elephant and rhinoceros poaching(偷猎 ) in the documentary “The End of the Wild”. “But differently, he, as a human observer, kept his distance and was there to see the hard truth of poaching, and that is different from a show created to attract viewers.” Ms Xie said. Critics also argue that the show violates(违反 ) Chinese wildlife protection laws. 32. Which one of the following statements is TRUE? A. The reality show makes no difference to wildlife at all. B. Some think the show is against wildlife protection laws of China. C. Many people like the show because of its dangerous activities. D. Xie Yan is against persuading the public to love and protect animals. 33. According to Ms Xie, “Wonderful Friends” is basically different from “The End of the Wild”, because ______. A. they shoot different numbers and kinds of species B. they both invite different popular stars to show up C. their purposes and ways to approach animals are different D. their filming locations are different 34. What’s the author’s attitude towards “Wonderful Friends”? A. Uninterested. B. Not mentioned. C. Worried. D. Disappointed. 35. The passage would most likely be found ______. A. in a fashion magazine B. in an ad of wildlife protection C. on a notice board。
