  MANILA, Philippines(AP)-Villagers and veteran hunters have captured a one-ton saltwater crocodile which they plan to make the star of a planned ecotourism park in a southern Philippine town, an official said Monday.

  Mayor Edwin Cox Elorde said dozens of villagers and experts captured the 21-foot(6.4-meter)male crocodile along a creek in Bunawan township in Agusan del Sur province after a three-week hunt.It could be one of the largest crocodiles to be captured alive in recent years, he said, quoting local crocodile experts.

  Elorde said the crocodile killed a water buffalo in an attack witnessed by villagers last month and was also suspected of having attacked a fisherman who went missing in July.

  He said he sought the help of experts at a crocodile farm in western Palawan province.

  "We were nervous but it's our duty to deal with a threat to the villagers," Elorde told The Associated Press by telephone."When I finally stood before it, I couldn't believe my eyes."

  After initial sightings at a creek, the hunters set four traps, which the crocodile destroyed.They then used sturdier traps using steel cables, one of which finally caught the enormous reptile late Saturday, he said.

  About 100 people had to pull the crocodile, which weighs about 2,370 pounds(1,075 kilograms), from the creek to a clearing where a crane lifted it into a truck, he said.

  The crocodile was placed in a fenced cage in an area where the town plans to build an ecotourism park for species found in a vast marshland(沼泽地)in Agusan, an impoverished region about 515 miles(830 kilometers)southeast of Manila, Elorde said.

  "It will be the biggest star of the park," Elorde said, adding that villagers were happy that they would be able to turn the dangerous crocodile "from a threat into an asset."

  Despite the catch, villagers remain cautious because several crocodiles still roam the outskirts of the farming town of about 37,000 people.

  They have been told to avoid venturing into marshy areas alone at night, Elorde said.

Australian scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in order to cut he greenhouse gases they send out, which are thought to be responsible for global warming.

Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence(肠胃气胀)contains no methane(甲烷)and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who produce large quantities of the harmful gas.

While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a billowing smokestack (烟囱) pushing out carbon dioxide, farm animals’ passing wind contribute a sur­prisingly high percentage of total emissions (排放物)in some countries.

“Fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in Australia are from enteric methane from cattle and sheep,” said Athol Kleve, a senior research scientist with the Queensland state government.

“And if you look at another country such as New Zealand, which has got a much higher agricultural base, they're actually up around 50 percent, ” he said.

Researchers say the bacteria also make the diges­tive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers.

But it will take researchers at least three years to isolate (分离) the bacteria, before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.

Another group of scientists, meanwhile, has suggested Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos.      

The idea is controversial (有争议的), but about 20 percent of health-conscious Australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.

“It's low in fat, it’s got high protein levels and it's very clean in the sense that basically it's the free-range (放养的) animal,” said Peter Amp of the University of New South Wales's institute of environmental studies.

1.Scientists intend to put bacteria into cattle and sheep _________.

A. so that they can make full use of special bacteria

B. to help Australian farmers to earn more money

C. so that they can protect Australian ecosystem

D. to prevent them from sending out harmful gases

2.Athol Kleve seems to believe that ________.

A. cattle and sheep produce more carbon dioxide

B. less cattle and sheep are raised in New Zealand

C. farm animals are responsible for greenhouse gases

D. New Zealand has the most animals in the world

3.What do the underlined words “the idea” in para­graph 9 refer to?

A. Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos.

B. The bacteria could make the digestive process much more efficient.

C. Australians should give kangaroo - style stomachs to cattle and sheep.

D. The bacteria could save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers.

4.Which of the statements is the advantage Peter Amp lists about kangaroo?

A. it is rich in protein                                    B. it is cheaper than beef

C. it is high in fat                                                       D. it is more delicious than sheep

     The Couch Surfing network is an online community stretching across the globe with over one and a
half million members. The basic concept is to provide a platform for travelers to contact people who are
willing to put them up free of charge. Travelers connect with potential hosts online and, if they like each
other, exchange details to make further arrangements.
     Basil is one traveler from Switzerland who is currently couch surfing with a Chinese host in Beijing.
"I thought staying in hostel is nice but you mostly meet foreigners and speak English. If you use Couch.
Surfing
you have chance to meet people living here and really get a chance to know the life of the place
you visit." Basil was speaking during a regular meeting of the Beijing network of Couch Surfing with a
membership of almost 2 000.
     Although some people may have concerns about meeting complete strangers and giving them full access
to your house, Beijing group member Fred Sharp from California says that the Couch Surfing community
is one that generally attracts trustworthy people.

trustworthy community. Like I say, always be cautious, make sure that you read everyone's profile that you
re considering hosting, and if it doesn't feel right just say 'no', it's ok."
     Originally launched in the US as a non-profit organization in 2004, Couch Surfing is growing fast across
the world. China is no exception with around 30 000 members and hundreds more signing up each week.
One of them is Beijing resident Hai Yan who joined in November 2009. She says the first time she hosted a
guest was a very positive experience. "My first guest was from Italy. He was very kind and helpful. He
bought me a present from Italy, a handbag. It's a famous brand!"
     As the organization grows from strength to strength, hotel owners across the world will be watching
very closely and possibly thinking twice about raising their prices too high.

SPIRIT LAKE, Iowa -- Towering more than 12 stories above a school playground, a pair of wind turbines(涡轮机) transform the usts blowing over the lakes and ridges sur-rounding this northern Iowa town into power that provides about half of the school district' s electrical needs.

     Students here can "look right out the back door" to see the giant turbines capture the wind and learn how they can produce power. More than 80 schools across the USA have installed some type of wind turbine, says Ian Baring - Could, senior engineer in a wind technology center at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colo.

      Now, a program called Wind for Schools is aiming to bring smaller turbines to six states:Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska and South Dakota. The program, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy' s Wind Powering America program at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, is the first program to use smaller turbines with a mission of educating students and the cmmnunity about wind power.

      In Faith, S. D. , home to one of the schools hoping to build a small wind turbine in the next couple of years, a fierce wind blows across the plains most days. Angela King, who teaches science in grades 7 to 12 in Faith, believes a turbine wiI1 give students learning about wind energy the chance to "see it happening, rather than just reading it in a book. "

      Much of the first year of the three - year program has been spent identifying schools hoping to join the program. South Dakota, for instance, announced its eight school districts over the summer. About five schools in Kansas have the turbines, and schools in Montana, Idaho and South Dakota are now preparing sites and will have them installed during this school year.Now, the goal is to add wind turbines at about five schools per year in each state, for a total of about 30 per year overall, Baring - Gould says.

 

61. According to the first paragraph, we know wind turbines are installed __  

      A. to produce wind                              B. to generate electricity

      C. for students to play with                   D. to attract visitors

62. What' s the real purpose of the program?   

      A. To sell smaller wind turbines to six states.

      B. To warn the school of the danger from wind.

      C. To teach the students to learn about wind power.

      D. To encourage the students to operate wind turbines.

63. According to Angela King, __  

     A. it is better to learn from one' s experience

     B. it is a waste of money to install wind turbines

     C. students should not learn from reading books

     D. students should be given the chance to play

64. We can conclude from the passage __  

     A. the program will last five years altogether

     B. more and more schools will resist the program

     C. some schools are forced to install wind turbines

     D. more and more schools will join the program

65. This passage talks about the program in order to tell us __  

     A. watching turbines can make students clever

     B. watching turbines at school can help build bodies

     C. programs like this can help schools educate students

     D. installing wind turbines can improve our environment
