B
Desperate to protect his farmland from a group of monkeys that were always destroying his crops, a
farmer in Karnatakas India decided to paint his dog to look like a tiger in the hope that it would scare
the monkeys away.
Srikant Gowda, a farmer from Karnatakas Shivamogga region, recently made interational news
headlines after it was reported that he used hair dye to paint his watchdog in the characteristic stripes of
a tiger. The dog already had a reddish hair color, so all he had to do was add the black stripes and some
white to give it the tiger look. It wasn’t that Gowda had always wanted to own a tiger, but that he hoped
the disguise (乔装) would help the dog drive away the monkeys destroying his crops.
The Indian farmer told reporters that he got the idea four years ago when he visited Uttara
Kannada and came across a farmer in Bhatkal who was using a fake tiger doll to scare away monkeys.
It seemed silly, but he tried the idea himself and was surprised to see that it actually worked. However,
he was convinced that the toy tiger wouldn't fool the monkeys for long, so he decided to try something
else as well.
The trick, strange as it might seem, has worked well and the dog has been able to actually scare off
the monkeys.
This year Gowda not only used hair dye to make his watchdog look like a small tiger, but he also
placed large posters of real tigers and his own fake tiger all over his farmland, hoping that they would
keep the monkeys at bay. The "paint job actually doesn’t harm the dog. It's actually hair dye(染发剂)
and lasts up to a month before fading away.
4. What did the farmer decide to do to protect his crops?
A. Raise some tigers B. Draw a dog like tiger
C. Set traps for the monkeys D. Make up his dog as a tiger.
5. Where did Srikant Gowda get his inspiration?
A. From a trip. B. From a friend C. From a toy D. From the Internet
6. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The dye can do harm to dogs. B. The " paint job"will last for only a month.
C. More dogs are likely to be painted like tigers. D. Monkeys will never stop destroying crops.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Farmer Is Friendly to Animals
B Farmer Is Good at Drawing Tigers
C.Farmer Protects His Crops from Animals
D. Farmer Paints His Dog as a Tiger to Scare Away Monkeys
C
Transport has a lot to answer for when it comes to harming the planetWhile cars and trains are
moving towards greenerelectric poweremissions(排放) from air travel are expected to increase
massively by 2050If we want big green sky solutionswe need blue sky
thinkingFortunatelythereˈs plenty of that happening right nowparticularly the short haul
flights powered by batteries
Harbour Air is the largest seaplane airline in North Americaflying 30000 commercial flights in
40 seaplanes each yearSignificantlyall Harbour Air routes last less than 30 minutesmaking it
perfectly fit for electric engines"As an airlineweˈre currently in the process of turning all our
planes into electric airplanes" says CEO Greg McDougallTo make this happenthe airline has
partnered up with MagniX to create the worldˈs first commercial flight with an electric engine
Making the skies electric isnˈt just good for the environmentit also makes sound financial sense
a small aircraft uses 400 on conventional fuel for a 100 mile flight while an electric one costs 8
12 for the same distanceand thatˈs before you factor in the higher maintenance costs of a
traditional engineThereˈs also the added bonus that electric planes are just much more pleasant to fly
inNo loud engine noiseno smell of fueljust environmentally friendly peace and quiet
While there has been real progress in the e-plane industrythe technical challenges that remain are
keeping everyoneˈs feet firmly on the groundA batteryeven a lithium oneonly provides 250
watt-hours per kilogramcompare this to liquid fuelwhich has a specific energy of 11890 watt-
hours per kilogramCarrying adequate batterieshoweverwould make the plane too heavy to get
off the groundIn aircraftwhere every bit of weight countsthis canˈt just be ignored
The transition(过渡) from gas to electric in the automobile industry has been made easier by
hybrids vehicles powered by both fuel and electricityMany believe the same pattern could be
followed in the airFuel consumption could be reduced as the electric component is switched on at
key parts of the journeyespecially on take-off and landing
Itˈs certainly an exciting time for electric flyingWith companies like Harbour Air taking the
leadbattery-powered planesespecially on short-haul journeysare set to become a reality in the
next few years
8. According to Para.1, what is happening in air transport
A. New explorations of the sky are being launched
B. Pollution caused by batteries is being controlled
C. Efforts are being made to make air travel greener
D. Demand for short-haul flights is increasing massively
9. Why is Harbour Air fit for electric flights
