Passage 1

Attracting and feeding wild birds are （26题）entertaining activities that have long been enjoyed by people all over the world. Feeding birds has become so popular that prepared feed mixtures are readily available. We feed birds for many reasons. Many （26题同意替换，此处既然是“享受观鸟的过程”，实际已给出明确的情感倾向，不太可能选C.It takes lots of time这类中性偏负面的态度）pleasant hours can come from watching birds. A hobby often develops into a serious study of their habits. Accurate identification of birds is usually the first goal. But observations that an amateur bird-watcher can make are really limitless. There is, （27题答案标志：1.转折项标志词必出）however, responsibility associated with bird feeding, （27题答案）including a disease hazard. Attracting numbers of birds continually to the same spot can be harmful to them, （有网站认为此处谈到了选项B的内容，但个人觉得这句重点仍然是谈鸟儿进食受影响更大，而不是环境。）particularly species that pick food from the ground contaminated by the droppings of other birds. In winter feeding efforts are most satisfying to people and are of greatest benefit to birds. During this time when fewer natural foods are available and air temperatures are lower, extra feeding can keep a bird warm and well. Once begun, feeding should never stop during these lean months. If you start a local increase of birds, be prepared to do what may be required to eliminate hazards to those you want to befriend. (28题答案:后三必出)A constant supply of food should be given until the cold is over and spring has come. If feeding is stopped during severe weather, birds used to relying upon the feeders must starve.

Passage 2

(29题答案：1.前三必考;2.听见什么选什么）My friend Leo makes up weak and poor excuses whenever there is something he doesn’t want to do.

(31题答案)He’d promised he’d help me move some furniture, from my parents’ house to my new apartment. He was supposed to bring his truck over about 8 o’clock Saturday morning.
