The giant panda only lives in the wild in China. 4the early 1980s, there5only 1, 000 left in the wild.

There are eighteen kinds of bats in Britain and all of them are

endangered（濒临绝种的）. The greater horseshoe bat is one of them.

There are few of them because people pull down old buildings and cut

down trees. They have no place to live in. There are only about 5,000 bats

in the UK now.

The Amur tiger（东北虎）is in danger. People kill them for their meat

and fur. They also cut down trees and make them homeless. In the 1930s,

there were only 20 of them. Then people began to realize that they should

protect the Amur tiger. Now there are about 360 Amur tigers in the world.

About 20 of them are in China.

People may see the mandarin duck（鸳鸯）on pools and lakes in

Britain, but its native home is across Eastern Asia, in Russia, China,

Korea and Japan. The mandarin duck is on water near forests. However,

forests and rivers are disappearing(消失). It makes the mandarin duck

fewer and fewer.

Soap operas from South Korea have been popular in China for more than twenty years now. So it is not the first time for the soap operas made in China to feel less popular. But this time, they are facing more difficulties, for The Heirs(继承者们)and My Love From the Star really made a full success, which even attracted some top officials.

A senior official said he sometimes watched soap operas from South Korea, as well as House of Cards, an American opera about politics. These operas made both in South Korea and in America have a lot of lovers in China.

Many people agree that China’s soap operas can’t be much loved by most Chinese, because they are not as interesting and exciting as those operas from South Korea and America, such as My Love From the Star, a South Korean love story between a time-traveling professor and a famous movie star.

However, South Korea not only provides soap operas but also some variety shows(综艺节目). Where Are We Going, Dad? is not an original Chinese show. We learned it from South Korea although not many in China are aware(意识到)of that fact.

Actually, China has a closer culture with South Korea. Shows from this neighbor seem to do better with their exciting stories on the Cinderella theme(灰姑娘主题). Yet they have created many popular shows whose stories tell there’s no difference between men and women even though in their country men are certain to play a more important role.

（）6. When might soap operas from South Korea become popular in China?

A. 1991.

B. 1971.

C. 2010.

D. 2001.

A. Europe

B. China

C. South Korea

D. Japan

（）8. The soap operas made in China are not as popular as those in South Korea or America, because ______ .

A. senior officials don’t allow us to watch them

B. they are not very interesting and exciting

C. Chinese people are more interested in politics

D. they were only made twenty years ago

（）9. According to the passage, we can know Where Are We Going, Dad? is ______ .

A. more popular than My Love From the Star

B. loved by a lot of South Koreans

C. about the love between a professor and a star

D. originally from South Korea

（）10. What does the underlined phrase “play a more important role”mean?

A. There’s no difference between women and men.

B. Men like soap operas better than women.

C. Women don’t like the parts played by men.

D. Men are believed to support the families and society more.

C.

To the kids who need a friend:

The holidays are a good time to think about people who are lonely. Maybe there is someone in your class who doesn’t seem to have any friends. Try to do something for this person.

听短文，选答案。

Today, many students complain that they have much homework to do every day. They have to stay up to finish their homework. So they often get tired the next day and can’t study well.

In fact, students can get a lot from homework in many ways. First, homework can help students practice what they have learned in class. Second, homework can also help students understand the knowledge. Third, students can keep a good learning habit by doing homework. They should do their homework by themselves without depending on others.

However, too much homework also has some disadvantages. First, it takes students too much time to finish their homework. So they have no time to do the things that they like. Their lives might be boring. Second, too much homework makes them too tired. They won’t have enough energy in class.

What’s your opinion about homework?
