The three most famous kites are the Beijing kite, the Tianjin kite and the Weifang kite. Each has its own style. For example, the bird shaped kite with long wings is a special kind of the Beijing kites.

A record 1,101 manatees died in Florida last year, many from hunger. So last December, government wildlife experts came up with a plan to give food to the manatees. They decided to feed them green
vegetables like lettuce and cabbage. Ron Mezich, an expert, said, “We’re making a difference.” So far, they have served up more than 193,000 pounds of lettuce to hungry manatees. But as the weather is getting warm, the program is expected to end soon.
Manatees are huge sea animals that only eat sea grass and other plants that live in the sea. That’s one reason why they’re sometimes called “sea cows”. Since 1967, Florida’s manatees have been on the US government’s list of endangered animals. Most dangers to manatees come from humans. One of the biggest problems facing the animals are boats. Manatees are curious (好奇的) and fairly slow. That has led to thousands of manatees being hit or killed by boats. At one point, there were only about 2,000 manatees left in Florida. With protection, the number increased. In 2016, there were more than 6,000 manatees.
However, as sea grass began to disappear, the number of manatees keeps going down again. Warming seas with polluted water have created huge growths of algae (藻) on the ocean’s surface. The algae blocks the sunlight that allows the sea grass to grow. In Indian River Lagoon, where manatees often go in the winter, about 90% of the sea grass beds there have died off. Long term, Florida will work to help restore (恢复) sea grass beds. But that will take time. Scientists still worry that hundreds more manatees could starve this winter.
31．Why are manatees sometimes called “sea cows”
A．They are as big as cows. B．They can swim like cows.
C．They have tails like cows. D．They feed on plants like cows.
32．How has the number of manatees changed over years
A． B．
C． D．
33．Which shows the correct order of the causes of manatees’ death
A．sea pollution → growth of algae → death of see grass → death of manatees
B．growth of algae → sea pollution → death of see grass → death of manatees
C．sea pollution → death of see grass→ growth of algae → death of manatees
D．growth of algae → death of see grass→ sea pollution → death of manatees
34．What is the meaning of the underlined word “starve”
A．to be hit by boats B．to eat up sea grass
C．to die from hunger D．to lose swimming ability
35．Which is the best title for this passage
A．Manatees Feeding Program B．Money Given to Save Manatees
C．Sea Grass Bed Restored for Manatees D．Reasons for Manatees’ Death Still Unclear
