• 2．One morning a deer rushed into a courtyard where a little boy was playing．The deer hooked the boy's clothing with its antlers （角）．This scared the little boy so much that he let out a loud cry which brought his mother running out to see what was happening．She came out just in time and saw the deer running off towards the mountains with her little boy．
     The mother was so afraid!She ran after the deer as fast as she could and not too far away she found her son sitting on the grass safely．Seeing his mother，the little boy laughed and reached out his arms to her．His mother held him tight．She was so happy that she cried．She hurried back with her dear son．When she got home，she was amazed at what she saw．The huge tree behind her house had fallen down while she was out running after the deer．The whole house was destroyed under the tree's great weight．
     Then the mother remembered the day about a year before when a deer fleeing from a hurt had run into her house．She felt sorry for the frightened deer，so she covered it with some cloth and let it return to the forest．

     She never imagined that the deer could remember her help．It somehow knew the tree was going to fall and kill her and her son，so it came back to save them．

• 3．Streaming（流媒體）first became popular in 2005，thanks to YouTube.Nowadays nearly three quarters of American households subscribe（訂閱）to at least one video streaming service.With almost 200 million subscribers worldwide and a billion hours of content viewed each week，Netflix is by far the biggest paid service.No.2 is Amazon Prime Video.But for every Goliath，there are a hundred Davids.Many smaller streaming services show nothing but sports，classic movies，or Japanese anime（動畫片）.
     In the early days of streaming the appeal was the lower cost，and it still is.The average streamer spends ＄37 a month and subscribes to three streaming platforms，while the average cable（有線電視）user pays more than ＄200 per month.Still streaming has become more expensive in recent years.In 2019，Netflix raised the price of its basic service 12.5 percent，to ＄8.99 a month.A quarter of its subscribers，who protested price increases，said they would cancel their subscriptions.Few did.
     A major reason：Streaming networks have become home to many of the most popular TV series，including recent Emmy winners.They offer full-length feature films as well，and last year，Netflix received more Oscar nominations（提名）than any other media company.In fact，streaming has changed the Oscar competition，at least for this year.Usually only films shown in theaters are considered，but because of the coronavirus，all movies released online in 2020 are qualified for the 2021 Academy Awards.That shift is especially good news for Disney，which is putting the much anticipated movie Mulan on its new streaming service，Disney+.But watching Mulan from your own home will cost ＄29.99-on top of the service's monthly fee of ＄6.99.
    Too much streaming can have its disadvantages，however.There are those who binge-watch，a term Merriam-Webster added in 2017 with the definition "to watch many or all episodes of （a TV series）on end." Alejandro Fragoso from New York holds the Guinness World Record：94 straight hours.
  
  （1）What do the underlined words "Goliath" and "David" in Paragraph 1 refer to？

  
  A．TV viewers.
  B．TV programs.
  C．Streaming subscribers.
  D．Streaming services.
  （2）Why did most Netflix subscribers continue their subscriptions？

  
  A．They cannot go without it.
  B．They think the low cost is a thing of the past.
  C．Netflix has controlled the market.
  D．They think it is good value for money.
  （3）What does the good news in Paragraph 3 mean to Disney？

  
  A．The movie Mulan can be released on Disney+.
  B．The movie Mulan will generate great profits.
  C．The movie Mulan can compete for an Oscar.
  D．The movie Mulan will win an Oscar award.
  （4）What do binge-watchers tend to do？

  
  A．They start a new life.
  B．They watch TV series continuously.
  C．They break world records.
  D．They watch TV series aimlessly

• 4．Social distancing is not a new concept in the natural world，where infectious diseases are commonplace.Through specialized senses animals can detect certain diseases and change their behavior to avoid getting ill.
     In 1966，while studying chimps （猩猩） in a Tanzanian national park，zoologist Jane Goodall observed a chimp named McGregor who had caught a highly infectious virus.His fellow chimps attacked him and threw him out of the troop.In one instance，McGregor approached chimps in a tree.He reached out a hand in greeting，but the others moved away without a backward glance.
     "For a full two minutes，old McGregor sat motionless，staring after them，" Goodall notes in her 1971 book In the Shadow of Man. "It's really not that different to how some societies react today to such a tragedy."
     Not all animals are so aggressive toward their ailing neighbors.Sometimes it's as simple as avoiding those who may infect you.
     When Kiesecker，a lead scientist in America，studied American bullfrog in the late 1990s，he found that bullfrogs could not only detect a deadly smell of infection in other bullfrogs，but healthy members actively avoided those that were sick.Bullfrogs rely on chemicals signals to determine who is sick or not.
     Caribbean lobsters also shun diseased members of their community，well before they become infectious.It takes about eight weeks for lobsters infected with the deadly virus Panulirus argus mininuceovirus to become dangerous to others.Normally social animals，lobsters begin keeping away from the diseased as early as four weeks after infection - once the lobsters can smell certain chemicals released by sick individuals.
     "Overall，it's important to note that，unlike us，animals don't realize if they stay home，they might actually reduce the infection rate，" Kiesecker explains. "As humans，we have that ability.It's a big difference."
  
  （1）What can we learn about the chimps from Goodall's observation？

  
  A．They kept a distance from one another.
  B．They became aggressive when infected.
  C．The infected avoided contact with others.
  D．The infected were forced to leave the group.
  （2）What does the underlined word "shun" in Paragraph 6 probably mean？

  
  A．Avoid.
  B．Cure.
  C．Get rid of.
  D．Get along with.
  （3）How are humans different from animals according to Kiesecker？

  
  A．Humans are more sensitive to virus.
  B．Humans are less likely to get infected.
  C．Humans treat infectious diseases in a wiser way.
  D．Humans can detect chemical signals more quickly.
  （4）Which might be the best title for the text？

  
  A．Help Me Out
  B．Leave Me Alone
  C．Stay Away From Us
  D．Stay Home Stay Healthy
