10、as walking in the park, he heard a woman calling his name. He stopped to look around, but didnt see anything 16 . Shortly after Robert saw it, it was gone.Though Robert felt a little strange, he did not think about it too much and sat down for a rest on a bench in the park. Then he noticed the snake

In Zurich, people are welcome, but c
14、ars are not! Over the past 20 years, this city has used smart ways 19 . One is to keep the same total number of parking spaces. For example, if 50 new parking spaces are built in one part of the city, then50 old spaces in other parts are taken away for other uses. So the total number does not change
15、. Some are unhappy that there are never enough spaces. That is just what the city has in mind: If people find parking more difficult, they will drive less. 20 , the total number of cars in the city is counted. Over 3,500 little computers are put under Zurich roads to check the number of cars that en
16、ter the city. If the number is higher than the city can deal with, the traffic lights on the roads that enter the city will be kept red. So drivers who are traveling into Zurich have to stop and wait until there are fewer cars in the city. Now, you may wonder 21 . Theanswer is simple: The city wants

30、r.(D) A kind of smell.&poem 詩When we get wet, we need a towel to get ourselves dry. When a dog gets wet, all it needs is to shake its body. A study in 2019 showed that a wet dog can throw off half the water on its body by shaking for less than a second. In fact, this common act of dogs works better
31、than a washing machine.The study found that animal shaking begins with the headand ends with the tail. During a shake, the animals head, body and skin all move. Smaller animals must shake faster than bigger animals to get water off. For example, in one second, a rat can shake 18 times, a dog 6 times
32、, and a bear 4 times. Bigger animals can get their bodies dry with fewer shakes.For animals, shaking is not just about getting themselves dry. It is also about saving their lives. Being wet makes animals heavier, and that makes it harder to run. In the animal world, how fast an animal can run often

From 1946 to 1986, about 340,000 whales were killed. People worry that children in the future can only s
43、ee whales in pictures. They believe all kinds of whaling (whale hunting) should be stopped before its too late.Some people are trying to stop whaling all over the world. But they fail to notice one fact: Whaling was going on for a long time before the number of whales went down and became a problem.
44、Whaling started as early as 1,500 years ago. This was how tribespeople fed their families. They hunted whales for meat because almost nothing could grow on their land. They also made whale fat into oil and used it to make candles or oil lamps. Over the years, whaling became their way of living, and
45、even part of who they are.Tribe whaling is not the thing we should worry about. Of all the whales that were killed over the past forty years, only 10% were hunted by tribespeople. The other 90% died at the hands of the money-making whaling business. When we try to stop all kinds of whaling, we shoul
