10、 becoming the third geographic feature in the country to be granted a “legal personality”. Eight local Maori tribes（部落）and the government will share guardianship of the sacred mountain on the west coast of the North Island. The local people view it as an ancestor and family member.The new status of
11、the mountain means if someone abuses or harms it, it is the same legally as harming the tribe. In the record of understanding signed this week, Mount Taranaki will become “a legal personality, in its own right”, said the minister for treaty negotiations, Andrew Little, gaining similar rights to the
12、Whanganui river, which was granted legal personhood earlier this year.Little said the agreement offered the best possible protection for the mountain, which is becoming an increasingly popular tourist attraction after Lonely Planet named the Taranaki region the second best place to visit in the worl
13、d last year.“As a New Plymouth local I grew up under the gaze of the mountain so Im particularly pleased with the respect given to local people and the legal protection and personality given to the mountain,” Little said.As part of the agreement the New Zealand government will apologize to local Mao
14、ri for their behavior against the mountain, although local tribes will receive no financial or commercial payment.Gerrard Albert, who negotiated legal personhood for the Whanganui river earlier this year after a 140-year fight, said all Maori tribes regarded themselves as part of the universe, at on
15、e with and equal to the mountains, the rivers and the seas.The new laws being introduced honored and reflected their world view, Albert said, and were setting an example for other Maori tribes in New Zealand to follow in Whanganui and Mount Taranakis footsteps. “We can trace our genealogy（宗谱）to the
16、origins of the universe,” said Albert. “And therefore, rather than us being masters of the natural world, we are part of it.”21. What does it mean to grant Mount Taranaki a “legal personality”?A. Mount Taranaki will be regarded as the ancestor of the tribes.B. Mounr Taranaki will be guarded and prot
17、ected like a person.C. Mount Taranaki will be the possession of eight local tribes.D. Mount Taranaki will be highly respected by everybody.22. Which of the following would Albert probably agree with?A. Human race is the origins of the universe.B. Local tribes should enjoy equal rights to nature.C. H
18、uman beings are supposed to take control of nature.D. More geographic features should be given legal rights.23. Where does this text probably come from?A. A news report.B. A travel guide.C. A TV interview.D. A geography textbook.BWhile most of the pig species are domestic（家养的）, some live in the wild
19、. Even though pigs feed on almost everything that comes in their way, domestic ones require a well-balanced diet.Pigs feed on both plant and animal matter. Apart from eating foods, like flowers, fruits, leaves, grass, roots, mushrooms and tree barks, wild pigs also feed on garbage, worms and dead in
20、sects as well. Even nuts are eaten by these animals. It has also been observed that, sometimes, newborn pigs are eaten by their mother. In short, they are considered as omnivores.In the wild, they feed on everything, according to their needs. In case of domestic pigs, it is very important to underst
21、and their food requirement, and provide them with a proper diet. They need foods rich in energy, so that they can grow rapidly. It is always better to feed them with a concentrated grain diet, which is low in fiber, but rich in protein supplements（增补物）. So, pigs have to be fed with farm grains, like
22、 corn, oats, barley, and wheat. Corn is considered one of the best foods for pigs. They can also be fed with vegetables, like carrots and potatoes.However, never forget to supplement their diet with vitamins and proteins. While meat is the main source of protein for pigs, it is not recommended for d
23、omestic ones. This is due to the risk of diseases which may pass on to pigs through meat. So protein supplements are recommended for such pigs. The protein level in their diet must increase as they grow. Calcium（钙）supplements are also recommended for pigs. Moreover, pigs need a regular supply of fre
24、sh and clean water, as water shortage may affect their survival. Care must be taken to clean the food and water troughs（槽）daily.In short, pigs need high-energy foods, which are low in fiber, along with a supply of clean and fresh water. This is only a brief overview about the diet of pigs. It will b
25、e better to consult a vet for more information about the feeding requirement of specific pig breeds.24. The underlined word “omnivores(Paragraph 2)probably refers to animals that _.A. are cruelB. are wildC. require a balanced dietD. eat various kinds of food25. According to the text, which of the fo
26、llowing may be a proper diet for domestic pigs?A. Corn, carrots, meat with calcium supplements.B. Wheat, potatoes, meat with fresh and clean water.C. Wheat, carrots, clean water with protein supplements.D. Potatoes, clean water with protein and calcium supplements.26. What is the main idea of the te
27、xt?A. The importance of a well-balanced diet to pigs.B. The differences between wild and domestic pigs.C. A brief introduction to the food requirements of pigs.D. A comparison of diets between wild and domestic pigs.CI was born an albino（患白化病的人）in Scranton, Pennsylvania, in 1945.No one in my family
28、had ever known what an albino was, what it meant to be an albino and what had to be done differently because I was an albino. My parents, relatives and friends treated me just like they treated everybody else. That was just about the best thing they could have done. It gave me a leg up on trusting m
29、yself, so when trouble came along, I could deal with them.Like most albinos, I had terrible eyesight. My grades suffered until eventually I overcame being self-conscious and realized it was okay to ask to sit in the front of the classroom so I could see the blackboard better. People stared at me whe
30、n I held reading material right at the tip of my nose so I could see it well enough to read. Kids would tease me, asking if I was joining the circus（马戏团）and calling me “Whitey”. Even when I was eight or nine, movie-theater clerks started asking me to pay adult prices because I “looked older.” The wo
31、rst part for me was that because my eyesight was so bad, I couldnt play sports very well.I didnt give up trying, though. I shot hoops every day and played whiffle ball in summer. And I studied harder. Eventually, I got better at school and loved it. By the time I got to college I was double majoring
32、, going to summer school and burying myself in every kind of after-class activity I could find. I tried my best to make “albino” a positive word. I couldnt see well enough to play sports, but with a solid education and the drive to do it, I could make a living involved in something I loved. Ive done
33、 it now for more than thirty years in print and in video, and now in cyberspace. People make jokes about how Im the only “blind editor” they know, but the jokes are well-meant, some of them signs of respect.I now realize that being born an albino helped me to overcome difficulties, gain confidence,
34、and be proud of my personal achievement and modest about my professional accomplishments.27. Why did the authors parents treat him like they treated anyone else?A.
