  That’s when Addison and her friends Erika and Emily Borden decided to sell lemonade for 50 cents a cup and sell pictures for 25 cents each.

  Before Allred knew it, New Mexico State Police Officers were among the many stopping by helping them reach a total of $568.

  News 2:

  Last week, France announced that the country will pave 621 miles of road with solar panels over the next five years, with the goal of providing cheap, renewable energy to five million people.

  Called “the Wattway,” the roads will be built through joint efforts with the French road-building company Colas and the National Institute of Solar Energy. The company spent the last five years developing solar panels that are only about a quarter of an inch thick and are strong enough to stand up to heavy highway traffic without breaking or making the roads more slippery. The panels are also designed so that they can be installed directly on top of existing roadways, making them relatively cheap and easy to install.

  France isn’t the first country to kick around the idea of paving its roads with solar panels. In November 2015, the Netherlands completed a 229-foot-long bike path paved with solar panels as a test for future projects. However, this is the first time a panel has been designed to be laid directly on top of existing roads and the first project to install the panels on public highways.

  Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.

  Q3: What was France's purpose of constructing the Wattway?

  A)Finding cheaper ways of highway construction.

  B)Generating electric power for passing vehicles.

  C)Providing clean energy to five million people.

  D)Testing the efficiency of the new solar panel.

  答案:C) Providing clean energy to five million people.

  Q4: What is special about the solar panels used in the Wattway?

  A)They can stand the wear and tear of natural elements.

  B)They can be laid right on top of existing highways.

  C)They can only about half an inch thick.

  D)They are made from cheap materials.

  答案:B) They can be laid right on top of existing highways.

  News 3:

  Lions have disappeared from much of Africa, but for the past few years scientists have wondered if the big cats were hanging on in remote parts of Sudan and Ethiopia. Continuous fighting in the region has made surveys difficult.

  But scientists released a report Monday documenting, with hard evidence, the discovery of "lost lions."

  A team with Oxford University’s Wildlife Conservation Research Unit, supported by a charity organization, spent two nights in November camping in the National Park in northwest Ethiopia, on the Ethiopia-Sudan border. The researchers set out six camera traps capturing images of lions, and they identified lion tracks.

  The scientists concluded that lions are also likely to live in the neighbouring National Park across the border in Sudan. The International Union for Conservation of Nature had previously considered the area a "possible range" for the species, and local people had reported seeing lions in the area, but no one presented convincing evidence.

  Questions 5 and 7 are based on the news report you have just heard.

  Q5: What has made it difficult to survey lions in remote parts in Sudan and Ethiopia?

  A)Endless fighting in the region.

  B)The hazards from the desert.

  C)Inadequate funding for research.

  D)The lack of clues about the species.

  答案:A) Endless fighting in the region.

  Q6: What was the main purpose of the research?

  A)To observe the wildlife in the two national parks.

  B)To identify the reasons for the lions’ disappearance.

  C)To study the habitat of lions in Sudan and Ethiopia.

  D)To find evidence of the existence of the “lost lions”.

  答案:D) To find evidence of the existence of the "lost lions".

  Q7: What did the researchers find in the National Park?

  A) Lions walking. C) Some camping facilities.

  B) Lion’s tracks. D) Traps set by local hunters.

  答案:B) Lions' tracks.
