Special Bridges Help Animals Cross the Road

Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side.

Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road.

“Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads,” the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill.

“Ecopassages” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. “These ecopassages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents,” said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society.

But do animals actually use the ecopassages? The answer is “yes”. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an ecopassage that went under a highway. This showed that the lions used the passage.

Builders of ecopassages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals as different as salamanders and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses.

The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. You might see an animal overpass!

13. The writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that ____.

A. wild animals have become more dangerous

B. the driving conditions have improved greatly

C. the measure for protecting wildlife fails to work

D. an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents

14. From the news story, we know an ecopassage is ____.

A. an underground path for cars

B. a fence built for the safety of the area

C. a bridge for animals to get over a river

D. a pass for animals to cross the road

15. When the writer says that animals seem “to be catching on”, he

means ____.

A. animals begin to realize the dangers on the road

B. animals begin to learn to use ecopassages

C. animals are crossing the road in groups

D. animals are increasing in number

16. The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling

because ____.

A. wild animals may attack cars

B. wild animals may jam the road

C. they may see wild animals in the park

D. they may see wild animals on ecopassages

WHEN Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876, he could never have predicted what it would be able to do in the future. Now, 130 years later, its no surprise when someone takes out a cellphone to make a call while on the move.

But phones are no longer just used to make calls. Japans 90 million cellphone owners also use their machines modern technology and tiny screens (half the size of a business card) to play video games, send e-mails, read news, download music, store photos and surf the Internet. Since April, theyve been able to use their cellphones to watch TV.

Following several months of test broadcasts, digital TV broadcasts for cellphones with special receivers began in Japans major cities. The special cellphones are hard to find because only a small number were put on sale. The excitement surrounding mobile TV means that the limited number of handsets quickly sold out.

Misogo Kado, a 37-year-old software designer from Yokohama, near Tokyo, bought one of the new cellphones earlier this month.

He is a big fan of the new technology.“You know how every cellphone now comes with a digital camera? In the same way, this is going to become a standard feature,” Kado said of the TV service. “Its not something you have to pay for. If youre buying a cellphone, you might as well get one with it.”

While the service is new for Japan, it is not the worlds first. South Korea and Britain have made TV available to their cellphone customers with the use of slightly different technology. The new service in Japan, however, is free.

Not only that, it uses broadcasting airwaves instead of an Internet connection. The images are sent through the air by TV towers, not satellites.

This terrestrial digital broadcast system means that more people will be able to use the service. Imagine what our phones will be able to do in another 130 years time!

17. What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10

words.)

18. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?

We have great difficulty finding this special cellphones due to its

limited numbers in the market.

19. Whats the new functions of this special cellphones according to the

passage? (Please answer within 30 words.)

20. Translate the underlined sentence in the seventh paragraph into

Chinese.
