Matt Doogue， a nature photographer， has found himself on the right way and his work is now featured in National Geographic. However， things were different years ago when he was suffering from depression. “In the beginning， I was so paranoid （多疑的） and angry that I couldn’t leave the house，” says Doogue. “When I attempted to end my life， I knew I needed to see doctors and get treatment， but I knew that I needed something more.” And that’s when he first found his passion for taking pictures of insect73442dfd403dd486732d4bff94183139s.

Now， Doogue found that looki08d3c42072ebf373854941da31dbaeeeng at insects through a camera helped him in ways he could never have imagined and it proved to be the lifeline he needed. It had a “calming effect” that helped him to “disconnect” from stress; and his astonishing images， showing insects and spiders in amazing detail against brightly colored backgrounds， caught the eye of publishers at National Geographic. “I ended up as one of their featured photographers，” recalled Doogue. “It was the peak of my career. It was incredible.”

Originally from Salford， Greater Manchester， he now lives in Armadale， West Lothian， Scotland. He believes that sharing his love of nature photography can help others to cope with their mental health issues as well. “I think the problem is this ‘man-up’ approach and the idea that men need to be strong puts so much pressure on young males to be fine all the time， which pushes men to the gloomy side，” says Doogue. “This is why I try to be so open about my own experience. Whenever I am out with my camera， I don’t think about my other worries. It is just me and the environment around me. You can lose yourself in a spider making its web.”

24. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us about Doogue？

A. Why he became depressed. B. Why he took up photography.

C. How he fought against depression. D. How he became a photographer.

25. How did photography help Doogue？

A. It equipped him with lifesaving skills. B. It helped him to get away from pressure.

C. It brought him a new job offer. D. It enhanced his love for nature.

26. What does the underlined word “gloomy” in Paragraph 3 mean？

A. Energetic. B. Hardworking. C. Curious. D. Negative.

27. What can be the best title for the text？

A. Face Your Mental Problems B. The Benefits of Nature Photography

C. Doogue’s Experience of Beating Depression D. Doogue： A Fan of Nature Photography

Scientists say a huge percentage of bird species are in danger because their habitats， or homelands， are disappearing.

Traditional migration paths take birds through countries that are not protecting the places for birds to stop， rest and feed. The scientists studied the migration or flight paths of almost 1，500 species. They decided that 91 percent of them passed through dangerous areas.

The major danger for migratory birds is development. Buildings and pavements have covered the places where birds stop and feed as they move from one part of the world to another. One of the scientists who worked on the study says， “Many of these important places have been lost to land reclamation （开垦） because of urban， industrial and agricultural land expansion.”

The problem， according to scientists， is that many of these small birds die along their migration paths because they don’t have a safe place to feed and rest. There is no place to restore their energy for the next part of their journey. Countries in North Africa， Central Asia and those along the coasts of East Asia are having the most difficult time in protecting land. The scientists say these countries do not have enough areas that are safe for birds. One species that doesn’t exist now is the Eskimo curlew. “Our world gets poorer every time we lose a species，” one of the scientists says.

The researchers say countries need to work together and come up with safe stopping areas for birds that pass through their boundaries. For example， one country might have preserved safe zones for migrating birds. But a neighbor country might not. A bird might die. One scientist who is not connected with the report tells Los Angeles Times that while some habitats are changing， more work can be done to make urban areas safe for birds. He says small changes， like planting more native plants or keeping cats out of the areas birds would be likely to use， could make a big difference.

28. What mainly caused the disappearing of birds’ habitats？

A. Natural disasters. B. The rising sea level.

C. Overuse of land by human beings. D. The decrease of awareness to protect birds.

29. What may be the main reason for many birds’ death on the way of migration？

A. Exhaustion and hunger. B. Beast attacks on the ground.

C. Hunting of humans. D. The harsh climate.

30. What should we do to protect the migrating birds according to the last paragraph？

A. Keep fewer cats or dogs. B. Preserve safe zones for them.

C. Restore their destroyed habitats. D. Help change their migration paths.

31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text？

A. To call on people to protect birds’ habitats.

B. To offer some solutions to the problem of birds’ habitats.

C. To tell us a huge percentage of bird species are in danger.

D. To analyze the reasons for the disappearing of birds’ habitats.

With nearly a quarter of global greenhouse gas coming from all types of transportation， can we keep ourselves off gas-powered vehicles to avoid the worst effects？ As more governments push for urgent action on climate change， quite a few companies are betting their future—that millions of consumers are finally ready for electric-powered vehicles. Modern battery-powered cars are selling fast and zero-emission （排放） planes are coming. These changes， both leading to a more sustainable future， are reinventing how we get from here to there.

Cars and trucks have undergone their greatest improvement since the automobile’s existence more than a century ago. Almost overnight， the era of the electric car has arrived. Electricity has the advantage that it works without smell and with less noise. Global annual sales of electric vehicles are expected to soar from just over 3 million today to 14 million by 2025. Just a month after Ford unveiled an electric version of the popular F-150， customers had reserved more than 100，000 of them. The price is about $10，000 above the gas-powered one， but Ford says the electric model will cost much less to maintain. Everything creating a green revolution on the ground is of limited help in the sky for the time being.

High-storage batteries are useless at present when it comes to the technological challenge of launching a few hundred people into the sky and carrying them thousands of miles. No battery yet invented can power， say， a Boeing 747 from New York to London. Promising improvements， however， do add up. Developments with zero-emission， battery-powered electric engines are already happening in commercial （商业的） flights， involving trips of limited duration and distance. Airlines specializing in short journeys with small planes will lead the way to electric flights.

Our planet’s health depends on zeroing out carbon dioxide emissions by 2050， and yet， by the timetable needed to address the climate challenge， the shift away from gas-powered vehicles remains far too slow. Nevertheless， the train has left the station. Someday， electric-powered transportation will be as common as air.

32. Why are many companies switching to electric-powered vehicles？

A. To reinvent the way we travel. B. To cut the costs of car production.

C. To improve the quality of products. D. To achieve sustainable development.

33. What can we learn about the electric car？

A. It came into use a century ago. B. It enjoys increasing popularity.

C. It sells better than the traditional one. D. It costs less than the gas-powered one.

34. What does the author mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 3？

A. The disadvantages of battery power. B. The significance of short flights.

C. The developments of commercial flights. D. The future prospects of electric planes.

35. What does the author mean by saying “the train has left the station”？

A. Train transportation has improved. B. Green transportation is on its way.

C. The electric train is running regularly. D. The gas-powered train has become the past.
