I have worked as a keeper at the National Zoo，Paris for 11 years.Spot and Stripe are the first
tiger cubs that have ever been born here.Globally，a third of Sumatran cubs in zoos don’t make it
to adulthood，so I decided to give them round-the-clock care at home.
I’ve got two children—the younger one，Kynan，was extremely happy about the tigers
arriving—but all of us really looked forward to being part of their lives and watching them grow.Iwasn’t worried about bringing them into my home with my wife and kids.These were cubs.They
weighed about 2.5 kg and were so small that there was absolutely no risk.
As they grew more mobile，we let them move freely around the house during the day，but
when we were asleep we had to contain them in a large room，otherwise they’d get up to
mischief.We’d come down in the morning to find they’d turned the room upside down，and left
it looking like a zoo.
Things quickly got very intense due to the huge amount of energy required to look after
them.There were some tough times and I just felt extremely tired.I was grateful that my family was
there to help.We had to have a bit of a production line going，making up “tiger milk”，
washing baby bottles，and cleaning the floors.
When Spot and Stripe were four months old，they were learning how to open doors and jump
fences，and we knew it really was time for them to go.It was hard for us to finally part with
them.For the first few days，Kynan was always a bit disappointed that the cubs weren’t there.
I’m not sad about it.I’m hands-on with them every day at the zoo，and I do look back very
fondly on the time that we had them.

A British woman who won a S1 million prize after she was named the World’s Best Teacher
will use the cash to bring inspirational figures into UK schools.
Andria Zafirakou，a north London secondary school teacher，said she wanted to bring about
a classroom revolution (变革)．“We are going to make a change，”she said.“I’ve started a
project to promote the teaching of the arts in our schools.”
The project results from the difficulties many schools have in getting artists of any sort—
whether an up-and-coming local musician or a major movie star—into schools to work with and
inspire children.
Zafirakou began the project at Alperton Community School，her place of work for the past
twelve years.“I’ve seen those magic moments when children are talking to someone they are
inspired by—their eyes are shining and their faces light up，” she said.“We need artists，more
than ever in our schools.”
Artist Michael Craig-Martin said：“Andria’s brilliant project to bring artists from all fields
into direct contact with children is particularly welcome at a time when the arts are being
downgraded in schools.” It was a mistake to see the arts as unnecessary，he added.
Historian Sir Simon Schama is also a supporter of the project.He said that arts education inschools was not just an add-on.“It is absolutely necessary.The future depends on creativity and
creativity depends on the young.What will remain of us when artificial intelligence takes over will
be our creativity，and it is our creative spirit，our visionary sense of freshness，that has been our
strength for centuries.”
语篇解读 这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了英国一名女子在被评为世界最佳教师后获得

change，’ she said.‘I’ve started a project to promote the teaching of the arts in our
schools.’”可知，Zafirakou打算用自己的奖金运行一个项目。故选C。
9．What does Craig-Martin think of the teaching of the arts in UK schools?
A．It is particularly difficult.
B．It increases artists’ income.
C．It opens children’s mind.
D．It deserves greater attention.

教学尤其困难。故选A。

An Australian professor is developing a robot to monitor the health of grazing cattle ，a
development that could bring big changes to a profession that’s relied largely on a low-tech
approach for decades but is facing a labor shortage.
Salah Sukkarieh，a professor at the University of Sydney，sees robots as necessary given
how cattlemen are aging.He is building a four-wheeled robot that will run on solar and electric
power.It will use cameras and sensors to monitor the animals.A computer system will analyze the
video to determine whether a cow is sick.Radio tags( 标 签 ) on the animals will measure
temperature changes.The quality of grassland will be tracked by monitoring the shape，color and
texture(质地) of grass.That way，cattlemen will know whether they need to move their cattle to
another field for nutrition purposes.
Machines have largely taken over planting，watering and harvesting crops such as com and
wheat，but the monitoring of cattle has gone through fewer changes.
For Texas cattleman Pete Bonds，it’s increasingly difficult to find workers interested in
watching cattle.But Bonds doesn’t believe a robot is right for the job.Years of experience in the
industry—and failed attempts to use technology—have convinced him that the best way to check
cattle is with a man on a horse.Bonds，who bought his first cattle almost 50 years ago，still has
each of his cowboys inspect 300 or 400 cattle daily and look for signs that an animal is getting sick.
Other cattlemen see more promise in robots.Michael Kelsey Paris，vice president of the
Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association，said a robot could be extremely useful given rising concerns
about cattle theft.Cattle tend to be kept in remote places and their value has risen，making them
appealing targets.

面临劳动力短缺的问题。故选B。

A．Monitor the quality of grass.

看牛是因为他认为人能做得更好。故选B。
15．How may robots help with cattle watching according to Michael Kelsey?

C．Make the job more appealing.

appreciate the benefits of being able to read more quickly. 16

supports your back and the book should be at the right distance from your eyes. 17

minutes spent in this way could save you quite a lot of time in the long run.
If you decide that you need to read the whole book，decide how much you can read at a time.
19 A history book which may contain the facts in story form will be easier to read than one
dealing with scientific subjects.In the former case you may be able to read a chapter.In the latter
you may only be able to read one page.

purpose as well as anything which leads you to further research.You don’t have to write these
things in detail.It is enough to put the page number and one or two words as a reminder.

educate。
