• 2．Jakarta，Indonesia （AP）—When a garbage collector came to Ghina Ghaliya's house in the Indonesian capital and asked if she had an old mobile phone that his children could use to access the Internet，it sparked （引發(fā)） an idea for a broader campaign to help students stuck at home by COVID-19.
     "He said it does not matter if it is an ugly one，as long as his children can use it for learning from home，" said Ghaliya，a journalist at a national newspaper.
     Shortly after COVID-19 hit Indonesia，Ghaliya and 11 other journalists in Jakarta organized a group to provide food and money for people in need.They stared hearing from parents who wanted their children to be able to study online but lacked a way to access the Internet.
     Ghaliya and the other journalists decided to shift（轉(zhuǎn)移）their focus to providing mobile phones for underprivileged students，many of whom were still not allowed to do face-to-face learning when the new school year started in July.
     They announced their campaign through social media and the response was strong，with some people donating（捐贈）second-hand units and others giving cash.So far，nearly 300 phones have been distributed to Indonesian students around Jakarta as well as to remote regions like Papua，the country's most eastern province.
     Khaissyah Levi，16，is a high school student in Depok，who attends online classes in the morning.His father Deny Sayuti had been lending his mobile phone to him for his studies，but that meant Sayuti could only do his work as a motorcycle taxi driver for part of the day，missing out on peak times like the morning rush hour.
     Sayuti worte to Ghaliya's group in August，and his family received a mobile phone a month later.Sayuti believes that his son can now do better with his online studies. "Now I see him more comfortable，and he can directly reach out to his friends and teacher，" Sayuti said.
  
  （1）Why did the garbage collector ask Ghaliya for a mobile phone？

  
  A．To play online games.
  B．To send a text message.
  C．To call police for help.
  D．To help his son study online.
  （2）Which is the closest in meaning to the word "underprivileged" in paragraph 4？

  
  A．Dependent.
  B．Desperate.
  C．Unfortunate.
  D．Unhealthy.
  （3）What information can we get from the fifth paragraph？

  
  A．People reacted coldly to Ghaliya's campaign.
  B．Papua is a less developed district in Indonesia.
  C．Ghaliya's group advertised a mobile phone brand.
  D．Social media was not accepted by the Indonesians.

• 3．If you live near a park，you've probably observed this unique squirrel behavior.As winter approaches，these creatures begin what looks like preparation for a wide scavenger（覓食）hunt.In great numbers，these squirrels begin to bury nuts!This kind of behavior raises a lot of questions for squirrel enthusiasts—the most pressing being how the squirrels find their nuts again.Eastern gray squirrels，in particular，bury their nuts far and wide.Scientists themselves aren't even quite sure of everything that goes into this hiding behavior，but they have some ideas.
     For one，scientists have observed gray squirrels frequently burying and reburying their nuts.The scientists assumed that this behavior was to help always keep a fresh memory of the nuts!locations.However，it's not only memory that the squirrels need to combat（戰(zhàn)斗）in order to find their nuts!The gray squirrel community is rampant（猖獗的）with nut stealing.The squirrels can lose up to 25% of their hidden nuts to such thieves!Luckily，the squirrels have developed some clever methods to protect their nuts.Scientists have observed the squirrels creating false caches（儲藏）in order to trick thieves.If the squirrels are worried about thieves，they will also start to hide their nuts in difficult-to-reach places（like under bushes or in muddy areas）.
     While it might be frustrating for squirrels to lose their carefully hidden nuts，it can be beneficial for other organisms.In particular，it can help the forest itself!A study done at the University of Richmond reports that squirrels fail to recover up to 74% of the nuts they bury.This misplacing of so many acorns （the seeds of oak trees），the study says，is likely responsible for oak forest regeneration.When squirrels misplace these buried acorns，they allow for these seeds to eventually grow into full oak trees!The squirrels' habit of widespread caching is also important to the growth of the forest，as it allows the genetic（基因的）information to spread far.
  What seemed like a harmless scavenger hunt is actually part of an endless complex ecosystem in our forests!
  
  （1）In what aspect do squirrels puzzle people most？

  
  A．The way they search for food.
  B．The places they hide in winter.
  C．The location of their hidden food.
  D．The way they recover hidden nuts
  （2）What can we learn about the gray squirrels？

  
  A．They often fight with each other for food.
  B．They tend to feel more secure in bushy places.
  C．They are cautious about storing food for winter.
  D．They survive largely thanks to their team spirit.
  （3）What's the message conveyed in the third paragraph？

  
  A．Squirrels can starve due to lack of food.
  B．It can be beneficial that squirrels lose their nuts.
  C．It's easy to get squirrels' genetic information.
  D．Squirrels always misplace their nuts deliberately.
  （4）Which can be the best title for the text？

  
  A．Why do squirrels steal nuts？
  B．How do squirrels survive the winter？
  C．The secrets behind squirrels' burying nuts.
