It was a long week for Amanda at school. She stayed after school to work on a special project three days in a row. When she got home on Friday， she dropped into the chair with a sigh （嘆氣）.

“Whats going on， Amanda？” her dad asked as he was reading the newspaper.

“I have to create a webpage for my technology class， and it is taking a lot more time than I thought it would，” answered Amanda.

Her dad looked over his newspaper and asked Amanda what the webpage was about.

“Its about the difference between newspaper news and Internet news，” Amanda said and added， “I have to provide information， examples and illustrations （插圖）.”

“Sounds tough. Do you have someone to help you？” asked her dad.

“I have a partner named Zach，” Amanda replied. “We did research on the Internet today and found some pictures to use.”

Then Amanda explained to her father the main differences： newspaper news is printed on paper， and Internet news is published online; newspaper news is only available once a day， and Internet news is published almost as soon as the news happens; many newspapers dont even print a daily paper， and Internet news is published around the clock.

Amandas dad asked， “Which type of news do you like better？”

“I like Internet news better because I like to learn about the news when it happens，” answered she.

Her dad said， “I still like newspaper news better because I like to hold the paper in my hands and turn the pages.”

Amanda dropped into her chair again and said， “You are so old school， Dad.”

With only about 1，000 pandas left in the world， China is badly trying to clone （克?。?the animal and save the endangered species. Thats a move similar to what a Texas A&M University researcher has been undertaking for the past five years in a project called “Noahs Ark”.

Noahs Ark is aimed at collecting eggs， embryos， semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. “If certain species should become extinct，” Dr Duane Kraemer says， “there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.”

It is estimated that as many as 2，000 species of mammals， birds and reptiles will become extinct over the next 100 years. The panda， native only to China， is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.

This week， Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.

The entire process could take from three to five years to complete.

“The nuclear transfer （核移植） of one species to another is not easy， and the lack of available panda eggs could be a major problem，” Kraemer believes. “They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy （懷孕）. It takes a long time and its difficult， but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk， so it is worth the effort，” adds Kraemer， who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A&M， the first-ever attempt at cloning a dog.

“They are trying to do something thats never been done， and this is very similar to our work in Noahs Ark. Were both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and theres a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. Its research that is very much needed.”

28. What is the aim of “Noahs Ark” project？

A. To save endangered animals from dying out. B. To collect DNA of endangered animals to study.

C. To transfer the nuclear of one animal to another. D. To make efforts to clone the endangered pandas.

29. Kraemer thinks the major problem of panda cloning would be the lack of ___ .

A. host animals B. enough money C. qualified researchers D. available panda eggs

30. What can we know about Dr Duane Kraemer？

A. He thinks the research is needed badly.

B. He tries to implant a pandas egg into a rabbit.

C. He and his team have succeeded in cloning a dog.

D. He will work with Chinese scientists in cloning research.

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

A. Chinas Success in Panda Cloning B. The First Cloned Panda in the World

C. Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas D. China—the Native Place of Pandas Forever

Thousands of tiny， bright-red crabs （螃蟹） almost covered the beaches of Southern California completely last week. They appeared on beaches in Newport Beach， Laguna Beach， Huntington Beach， and other seaside communities at low tide， surprising surfers and swimmers in the area. “I was so startled to see them，” Laguna Beach resident （居民） Lauren Cavalia told The Los Angeles Times. “I had no idea that this kind of thing happened.”

These bright-red crabs from the ocean are also called tuna crabs. Each one is about 1 to 3 inches long. Although they look like tiny crawfish or lobsters， they arent good for eating since they dont have a lot of meat. Also their meat is poisonous， causing those who eat the meat to become sick. So residents dont catch them for meat. These crabs are active during the day but prefer to stay in the shade and can die in the heat of direct sunlight.

Marine experts （海洋生物學(xué)家） say the crab population increase is likely a result of the El Nino weather pattern. This natural climate pattern occurs when the water in the Pacific Ocean near the equator gets hotter than usual. The warmer waters linked to El Nino pushed large quantities of the crabs up north from Mexico， the marine experts said.

This isnt the first time that El Nino has affected the location of creatures living in the Pacific Ocean. The black skimmer is a subtropical seabird that has been spotted off the coast of San Diego， much further north than it usually lives. Marin needlefish， sea hares， and Dana Point whales have also appeared in areas further north than their typical habitats.

The red tuna crabs have been washed up along the coastline of Southern California for the past several years. Before that， they hadnt been seen in the area for decades.

32. What does the underlined word “startled” in Paragraph 1 probably mean？

A. Worried. B. Thrilled. C. Shocked. D. Confused.

33. What probably pushed the red crabs up north according to the marine experts？

A. Warmer waters. B. Air pollution. C. Heavy Rains. D. Habitat loss.

34. What do we know about the red crabs？

A. They live in the Pacific Ocean. B. They are fond of enjoying sunshine.

C. They are delicious to eat. D. They are a kind of crawfish.

35. What does the text mainly talk about？

A. El Nino is changing the location of many creatures.

B. Red crabs are suffering from extinction because of heat.

C. Residents of Southern California are threatened by red crabs.

D. Countless tuna crabs appeared on the beaches of Southern California.
