18、es. The freedom to explore a new field is a gift that Harrys success has brought me. Ian Rankin, the Edinburgh-based author whose highly-successful detective novels are also set in the city, suggested Rowlings book will be a crime novel.

A spokesman said, JK Rowlings audience is vast and her position is unique. Harry Potter books were a global success and

But at present, it is a deadly disease, a somewhat silent killer that causes a fur

26、ther decline in the koala population, that is worrying many scientists about the fate of the koala. The killer is Chlamydia, which has caused symptoms in up to 50 percent of the wild koalas, with probably even more infected (感染 ) but not showing symptoms. It has been particularly severe in Queenslan

27、d, where nearly all koalas are infected. The disease causes many symptoms including eye infections, which can lead to blindness, making it difficult for them to find their primary food. Treating Chlamydia in wild koalas is a challenge. There is no treatment available for it. Only a small percentage

28、of the animals can be treated successfully and returned to the wild. Besides, there is no national plan in Australia to save the koala; it is up to each region to make management plans for its koala population. The good news is that researchers are working to test a vaccine (疫苗 ) that would help pre

29、vent further spread. If all goes well, plans can be carried out to distribute the vaccine more widely. But its impossible to vaccinate (给注射疫苗 ) all wild koalas. Another possibility would be to make vaccine distribution a routine part of treatment for the thousands of koalas brought into care centers

30、 every year after they are injured by cars or dogs. While it is a combination of problems that are affecting the wild koala population, many experts believe this vaccine would be an important step in helping koalas survive longer. It may be enough time to give researchers a chance to solve some of t

A a national plan for saving koalas will be made soon in Australia B koala population is declining only in a few regions C

34、 researchers need enough time to solve the koala problems D experts have lost the best chance to save the infected koalas 答案： 【小题 1】 B 【小题 2】 A 【小题 3】 D 【小题 4】 C The International Space Station allows astronauts to live in space for extended amounts of time, enabling them to explore the outside univ

35、erse and conduct many experiments. However, nothing like that exists for our oceans, and thanks to the high water pressure, ocean researchers are able to explore what lies undersea for very short periods of time. They are therefore never able to fully explore the deep inside areas of our oceans. How

36、ever, if French architect Jacques Rougerie has his way, that will change soon. Jacqucs has designed a ship that will allow researchers to spend a long period of time observing the sea life and conducting experiments. The huge 167ft ship, named Sea Orbiter, consists of two areasone above the water wh

37、ere the scientists and crew will live, and a lower pressurized deck (甲板 ), where scientists will be able to spend as much time as they wish. Since it is powered by sea currents and wind, he expects it to drift (漂流 ) along the oceans slowly, taking about two years to circumvent the globe. Jacques wil

38、l make their life as comfortable as possible in the ship. Besides being equipped with the latest sailing tools and communication equipment, the ship will also have a gym, a television and a DVD player. And these guys will not be eating freeze-dried food like astronauts. Instead, Jacques, an accompli

39、shed chef, plans on cooking them delicious meals every day. The biggest problem to this giant ship is the cost, which is expected to be over $500 millionper ship! However, Jacques, who strongly believes that the secrets of our oceans may be the key to solving global warming and a vital supply for fo

40、od and medicine in the future, is confident he will be able to convince governments all over the world to help out, and expects to start construction on not one, but four or five of these amazing ships soon! 【小题 1】 Why cant ocean researchers explore the deep oceans for a long time A Because they can

41、t stand the high water pressure. B Because its too cold in deep ocean. C Because time for experiments is too limited. D Because its dangerous to observe the sea life. 【小题 2】 The underlined word circumvent probably means . A fly away B get around C travel through D move into 【小题 3】 From the fourth pa

44、sure of some local businesses, the City Council in West Hollywood, California, voted without opposition last week to ban the sale of fur products. Should laws be involved in this issue Is it unfair to ban sales of fur, but not sales of leather and hides (兽皮 ) Animals Do Not Have Rights By Tibor R. M

45、achan My view is that animals do not have basic rights. It is a matter of ethics (伦理学 ) and not of the laws of human societies. If animals had such rights as human beings do, they would have to be held responsible for killing fellow animals in the wild. That way of thinking about animals makes a cat

46、egory mistake. Using animals, including their fur or organs, to improve peoples lives is acceptable. A Small Step Against Cruelty By Kate Carter Both fur and leather are the skins of dead animals. Why should we think that the lovable furry ones deserve more of a life than the less pleasing ones Some

47、 say leather is less cruel because its a byproduct (副产品 ) of the meat industry. But this isnt really true. Some cheap leather may be a byproduct of the meat industry, but often its the other way round. In South Africa, where there is a developing market for ostrich(鸵鸟 )farms, the skins account for r

48、oughly 80 percent of the slaughtered (宰杀 )birds value, a mere 20 percent of which comes from the meat. Who Are You Wearing By Marc Bekoff West Hollywoods ban is a move in the right direction. However, we must work to ban the sales of leather and hides, too. Furs come from animals who are attacked to become clothing, while some leather and hides come from slaughterhouse(屠宰场 ) animals. We must remember that when people choose to wear fur, leather and hides, they are wearing formering conscious beings. So its a matter of who they are wearing, not what they are wearing beca
