A rescue center in Alaska has taken in an orphaned baby seal (海豹) that was still in the body when a hunter killed its mother on Easter Sunday.
   The Alaska Sea Life Center says a hunter killed the baby's mother in a village on Nelson Island in the Bering Sea.The hunter then realized there was a live baby inside the seal and successfully delivered (接生) it.
   The hunter's daughter found a hotline of the Seward Rescue Center and called to report the incident.Guided by center staff,a village teacher helped transport the baby to the local airport,and the animal was flown to Anchorage.The Alaska Sea Life Center members met the baby,now called Maxwell,at the Anchorage airport and drove him to Seward on Monday.Staff members say the baby has responded well to food and care,but his condition is still considered very serious.
   "Maxwell was close to full-term,and everything looks fairly normal," said Pam Tuomi,a center vet."But babies that have never received antibodies (抗體) from their mothers' milk are at higher risk of infection (感染),so we will keep Maxwell in a separate place and watch him closely for the next few weeks."
   The Sea Life Center is Alaska's only permanent facility licensed to house stranded marine mammals and seabirds.The staff choose a theme each year for naming animals admitted there,and this year the names are related to caffeine.
   "We hope to give Maxwell a second chance to live as a wild sea," said Brett Long,the center's director.

  • 1.Easy to make and cheap to buy,instant noodles have long been China's ultimate convenience food.
       Since it was a snack for students,a meal on the train,or just the go-to choice for hungry workers,more than 46.2 billion packets were sold in China in 2013.But it seems this industry has gone off the boil.By 2016 those sales had declined to 38.5 billion,according to the World Instant Noodle Association,a drop of almost 17%.
       "This phenomenon shows an unnoticeable while continuous change in China's consumption(消費(fèi))patterns," said Zhao Ping of the Academy of China Council for the Promotion of International Trade.He told the China Daily,"Consumers are more interested in life quality than just filing their bellies these days."
       About 730 million people in China now have access to the Internet according to government figures.And about 95% of those are using smart phones to connect.And apps that offer food delivery to your home,office or wherever you happen to be are a real fast developing industry.
       Their menus are undoubtedly more expensive than a pot of instant noodles.But these meals can still be inexpensive,and arguably more tasty,depending on your favour.
       But put in the global background,China is still easily the biggest market for instant noodles.In fact,China's consumption was roughly equal to Indonesia,Japan,Vietnam,India,the US,South Korea and the Philippines combined.
       And that means global noodle manufacturers are unlikely to turn away from the Chinese market.Japan's instant noodle business Nissin Foods,for example,is planning to land on the stock market,in Hong Kong,by which operation it hopes to raise about 145 million dollars.It is rare for a Japanese firm to list in Hong Kong,but Nissin is talking up its prospects in China,where it is already the fifth biggest brand.
       "Some consumers stopped consuming instant noodles,but most consumers want to increase the quality(of food they consume)," chief executive Kiyotaka Ando told CNBC last week,"We can supply high-quality products so we have more possibility to develop our business."

    (1)The phrase "go off the boil" in Paragraph 2 is close in meaning to
    .
    A.stop boiling
    B.turn down
    C.develop rapidly
    D.get out of control
    (2)According to the text,it is because of
    that people have more food choices.
    A.the development of food manufacturing industry
    B.the fall of price in foods beyond instant noodles
    C.the technological development on communication
    D.the people's doubt on instant noodles' food safety
    (3)Which of the following descriptions is TRUE according to the text?

    A.China consumes more instant noodle than any other country does.
    B.China is beginning to lose its first place in instant noodle business.
    C.Nissin is the fifth biggest brand of Japan's instant noodle business.
    D.Nissin is planning to build an instant noodle factory in Hong Kong.
    (4)We can infer from the text that
    .
    A.China's instant noodle consumption will continue to drop
    B.Chinese people will favour cheaper instant noodles to save money
    C.instant noodles will have a pessimistic prospect in the future
    D.instant noodle manufacturers will focus more on its food quality
