Birds.Recently, Dessi, 14 years old, chatted with TFK about his work and goals for the future.‎ TFK：‎ What is Protecting Our Birds?‎ DESSI：‎ Birds are citizens of the world, so they need protection.I basically try to do conservation work to help birds get protected throughout the world.I recently wrote an article about a bird called the bartailed godwit (斑尾鹬)．I interviewed a biologist named Nils Warnock, who had studied the bartailed godwit.He expressed the concern about the threat that the bartailed godwit is facing.I wrote an article about his answers to the questions, which is published on the American Birding Association Website.‎ TFK：‎ What impelled you to start this project?‎ DESSI：‎ When I was eight years old, our class had to do a woodworking project, so I chose a bird feeder (喂食盒)．I didn't like birds at the time.I made the feeder, filled it up with seed, put it in my backyard and then the birds started coming.I got really interested in birds as more came.I later got involved in my local Audubon Society, which is devoted to conserving and restoring natural ecosystems.It really got me into birds and I realized bird populations were declining, and many are becoming endangered quite rapidly.I wanted to help them, so I started the project.‎ TFK：‎ What are some future projects you plan to work on?‎ DESSI：‎ I live in L．A., where there are a lot of parrots.Most of the parrots' native range is in Mexico, but they're really declining there because of habitat loss.I want to study the parrots and help them in their native range in Mexico, so they can start increasing again.‎ TFK：‎ How can people learn more about Protecting Our Birds and the work you're doing?‎ DESSI：‎ I have a website.It's protectingourbirds. myfree.website.There people can learn about what I do and how to help birds.‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。14岁的Dessi Sieburth为了保护濒临灭绝的鸟类，他发起了“护鸟”工程。最近他接受了记者的采访，在访谈中，他谈到了启动这个工程的初衷、他做的鸟类保护工作以及未来的打算。‎ ‎1．What's Nils Warnock's attitude to the bartailed godwit?‎ A．Worried.　　　　　　　 B．Changing.‎ C．Uncertain. D．Optimistic.‎ 解析：选A　推理判断题。由第三段的“He expressed the concern about the threat that the bartailed godwit is facing.”可推知，Nils Warnock对斑尾鹬的生存前景深表忧虑。‎ ‎2．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “impelled” in Paragraph 4?‎ A．Forbade. B．Requested.‎ C．Encouraged. D．Challenged.‎ 解析：选C　词义猜测题。由第五段的内容可知，本段主要谈论了Dessi Sieburth是如何启动“护鸟”工程的，故画线词的意思为“鼓励，推动”。‎ ‎3．When did Dessi start his project “Protecting Our Birds”？‎ A．After he prepared a feeder for birds.‎ B．After he interviewed Nils Warnock.‎ C．After he studied parrots in Mexico.‎ D．After he joined a local association.‎ 解析：选D　细节理解题。由第五段的“I later got involved in my local Audubon Society ... I wanted to help them, so I started the project.”可知，在Dessi Sieburth加入了当地Audubon协会，了解了鸟类的生存现状后，他才启动了“护鸟”工程。‎ ‎4．What will Dessi probably do next?‎ A．Write articles about birds in danger.‎ B．Help parrots losing the natural home.‎ C．Set up a website to teach how to help birds.‎ D．Recreate his own conservation organization.‎ 解析：选B　细节理解题。由第六、七段的内容可知，Dessi ‎ Sieburth接下来会致力于保护那些失去了栖息地的鹦鹉。‎ B Some pigs tend to be optimistic while others are pessimistic, according to a new research that is meaningful to animal welfare.The study, published in the journal Biology Letters, is the first to show that mood and personality interact in an animal, influencing judgment.‎ Asher, a researcher at the University of Newcastle's Institute of Neuroscience, and her team housed groups of pigs in two types of environment.One reflected standard commercial conditions and the other was cushier with more space and plenty of soft, deep straw.After the pigs got accustomed to these new homes over a few weeks, the researchers picked 18 pigs from each type to train and test their judgment.‎ ‎“To do this, we trained each pig.In one corner of a training room there would be a bowl with chocolate sweets — pigs love them — and at the opposite side of the room there would be a bowl containing coffee beans, which pigs find bittertasting，” a researcher said.‎ Over a number of training trials, pigs learned to go to the bowl reliably when it was in the corner where they had figured out to expect chocolate sweets.On the contrary, they quickly learned to avoid the bowl when it was in the corner where they would expect to find the coffee beans.‎ The researchers next placed an unfamiliar bowl in different locations, to see how the pigs would react.Some gaily dashed to the bowl no matter what was inside, showing optimism that it would contain their favorite sweets.Others, however, behaved as though they expected it to contain ‎ coffee beans, displaying pessimism.‎ The findings suggest that a onesizefitsall answer to animal welfare issues does not exist.Even if pigs are just equal to bacon or other meat for some people, there is still cause for concern.Studies have suggested that how an animal is treated during its lifetime can directly affect meat quality and taste.‎ ‎5．What was the study trying to figure out?‎ A．How to make pigs happier.‎ B．The similarities between humans and pigs.‎ C．How living environment affected pigs' mood.‎ D．How pigs' mood and personality affected their judgment.‎ 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据文章第一段第二句“The study, published in the journal ... influencing judgment.”可知，选项D正确。‎ ‎6．What does the underlined word “cushier” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A．Simple. B．More comfortable.‎ C．Unpractical. D．Less free.‎ 解析：选B　词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“more space and plenty of soft, deep straw”可知，另一个环境很舒适。所以选项B正确。‎ ‎7．What do the findings of the new research imply?‎ A．People should treat pigs equally.‎ B．People's health relies on meat quality.‎ C．People should meet pigs' various needs.‎ D．People's attitude toward pigs is totally wrong.‎ 解析：‎ 选C　推理判断题。根据最后一段尤其是最后一句可推知，要想获得高质量和口感好的猪肉，人们应当满足猪的多种需要。所以选项C正确。‎ C Recently, my teenage son gave me a great insight into my writing career. He plays the online multiplayer game Minecraft, in which players build vast structures while battling the occasional zombie at night.‎ ‎“How do you win the game？” I asked him.‎ He rolled his eyes, the way only teens can.‎ ‎“There is no winning the game, mom，” he said. “It's about the experience. It's all about the journey.”‎ Well said, Evan. I so often forget this truth.‎ In writing, there is no arriving.
