For 20 years, two brothers living in the dirty neighborhood of Wazirabad in India’s capital,
Delhi, have been treating wounded black kites (鸢) that fall from the city’s skies.
Mohammad Saud and Nadeem Shehzad rescue birds of prey—mostly injured by paper kite
strings—and carry them to a basement garage at home. Here, they begin nursing them to health:
cleaning and bandaging wounds, fixing wings and broken bones.
Small miracles happen in the basement. Here lives are saved, a living is made and there’s
some happiness too. “You don’t care for things because they share the same country, religion or
politics,” say the brothers. “Life itself is relationship. That’s why we can’t abandon the birds.”
The brothers talk about how a neighborhood bird hospital refused to treat the first kite they
rescued because it was a “non-vegetarian bird”. At that time, they, were teenage bodybuilders and
that’s how they “came to know about flesh and muscles”. They figured out ways to bandage the
kites. They became passionate about birds. “We’d lie on the ground, watching the elegant flights in
the sky,” they say. “The head would spin. Have you ever felt dizzy looking into the sky?”
The street outside the brothers’ home becomes a smelly pool of sewage water which comes
into the basement during the rainy season. Pigs wander in a muddy channel. Air quality reaches
dangerous peaks. Yet there’s life and hope. Monkeys climb playfully over some electric wires that
hang unsteadily over narrow streets. An airplane in the sky is reflected in a pool of quiet water.
When the weather clears, skies are filled with paper kites. And then the birds begin dropping,
and the brothers are back at their job. Sometimes the birds fall after bumping against buildings in
the smog or getting entangled ( 缠住) in overhead wires. At one point, there were more than 100
wounded birds in the basement. The brothers once swam across the river to rescue a bird with a
broken wing.
24. Why do the brothers treat wounded kites?
A. They believe they are interconnected.
B. They like to see miracles happen.
C. They are deeply religious people.
D. They do it for political reasons.
25. Why did the hospital refuse to treat the wounded kite?
A. Kites are not protected birds.
B. Kites feed on other creatures.
C. Kites keep their heads spinning.
D. Kites are dangerous to human beings.
26. How does the author develop paragraph 5?
A. By listing some statistics.
B. By depicting a miserable scene.
C. By making an analysis.
D. By making comparisons.
27. What can we learn from the two brothers?
A. Look at the positive side of a thing.
B. Start a great cause with small deeds.
C. Live in harmony with creatures around.
D. Lend a helping hand to people in need.

A century ago, the immigrants from across the Atlantic included settlers and travelers. Along
with the many folks looking to make a permanent home in the United States came those who had
no intention to stay, and 7 million people arrived while about 2 million departed. About a quarter of
all Italian immigrants, for example, eventually returned to Italy for good. They even had an
affectionate nickname, “uccelli di passaggio”, birds of passage.
Today, we place more restrictions on immigrants. We divide newcomers into two categories:
legal or illegal, good or bad. We acknowledge them as Americans in the making, or identify them as
aliens to be kicked out. That framework has contributed a great deal to our broken immigration
system and the long political paralysis over how to fix it. We don’t need more categories, but we
need to change the way we think about categories. We need to look beyond strict definitions of
legal and illegal. To start, we can recognize the new birds of passage, those living and thriving in
the gray areas. We might then begin to solve our immigration challenges.
Crop pickers, violinists, construction workers, entrepreneurs, engineers, home health-care
aides and physicists are among today’s birds of passage. They are energetic participants in a global
economy driven by the flow of work, money and ideas. They prefer to come and go as opportunity
calls them. They can manage to have a job in one place and a family in another.
With or without permission, they straddle( 跨越) laws, jurisdictions and identities with ease.
We need them to imagine the United States as a place where they can be productive for a while
without committing themselves to staying forever. We need them to feel that home can be both here
and there and that they can belong to two nations honorably.
Accommodating this new world of people in motion will require new attitudes on both sides
of the immigration battle. Looking beyond the culture war logic of right or wrong means opening
up the middle ground and understanding that managing immigration today requires multiple paths
and multiple outcomes, including some that are not easy to accomplish legally in the existing
system.
28. What does the underlined phrase “birds of passage” in Paragraph One indicate?
A. people immigrating across the Atlantic.
B. people staying in a foreign country temporarily.
C. people leaving their motherland for good.
D. people finding permanent jobs overseas.
29. What do we know about the current immigration system in the US?
A. It needs new immigrant categories.
B. It has loosened control over immigrants.
C. It should be reformed to meet challenges.
D. It has been fixed through political means.
30. According to the author, how should today’s “birds of passage” be treated?
A. They should be treated with legal tolerance.
B. They should be treated with economic favors.
C. They should be treated as faithful partners.
D. They should be treated as powerful competitors.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Come and Go: Big Mistake.
B. Living and Thriving : Great Risk.
C. With or Without : Great Risk.
D. Legal or Illegal: Big Mistake.
D
In 2014, UC Berkeley biologist Robert Dudley wrote a book The Drunken Monkey: Why We
Drink and Abuse Alcohol, proposing that our attraction to alcohol arose millions of years ago, when
our monkey ancestors discovered that the smell of alcohol led them to ripe and nutritious fruit.
Recently, a new study led by Christina Campbell of California State University, Northridge
(CSUN) supports this idea, which Dudley calls the “drunken monkey” hypothesis (假说).
In his book, Dudley laid out evidence for his idea, which showed that some fruits known to be
eaten by monkeys have a naturally high alcohol content of up to 7%. But he did not have data
showing that monkeys or apes preferentially sought out and ate fermented ( 发酵的) fruits, or that
they digested the alcohol in the fruit.
For the newly reported study, the CSUN researchers analyzed the alcohol content in the fruits
