7．A great amount of dark，sticky tar（焦油） was reported along Isracl's coast last week.An off-shore oil tanker is believed to have leaked out.
The floating oil can form tar balls as it is pushed by wind and waves on the ocean's surface.After a violent storm，the tar balls were seen ashore.Isracl has about 190 kilometers of beaches.The tar has already had a big effect on the local wildlife.Volunteers were working quickly to rescue sea birds，turtles and fish.Some animals were covered in oil or tar.Others had swallowed it.The body of a young whale was found washed up on shore.The whale appeared to have died after swallowing a black oily liquid.
The government has asked people to avoid going to the beach，since tar exposure can make people sick and do harm to the skin.A number of volunteers had to be taken to the hospital after breathing in the air polluted by chemicals from the tar.
Experts from Israel and countries in Europe are still trying to figure out exactly what happened.The leak is believed to have taken place about a week ago，when there were strong storms in the area.Israel believed that a ship leaked tens or even hundreds of tons of oil in the Mediterranean.Experts are working together to review satellite images（圖像） of ships that passed through the area，and they have a list of about 10 ships that are the most likely ones to leak out.
The Israel Nature and Parks Authority warned that the "consequences will be seen for years to come".Israeli environment minister Gila Gamliel said on Saturday that there is no more floating oil visible off Israel's coast， "which is a very animative condition".However，the ministry warned that large waves are forecast this week.The waves could carry the sticky tar from beach to beach，which could make clean-up efforts more difficult.
（1）What brought the tar balls to the shore？
A．An oil ship.
B．A strong storm.
C．The sea animals.
D．The Floating oil.
（2）What can be inferred about the oil tanker leak？
A．Israel has found out the cause of the leak.
B．Volunteers have tried hard to stop the leak.
C．When the leak occurred hasn't been figured out.
D．Which ship is responsible for the leak is unclear.
（3）What is Gila Gamliel's attitude towards the oil leak？
A．Neutral.
B．Critical.
C．Worried.
D．Indifferent.
（4）In which section of a newspaper may this text appear？
A．Environment.
B．Science.
C．Health.
D．Trade.組卷：1引用：1難度：0.6 -
8．Researchers have studied how birth order affects kid's personalities in the past，but one study out of the United Kingdom has found that firstborns may have an educational advantage over their younger siblings （兄弟姐妹）.
Researchers at the University of Essex's Institute for Social and Economic Research surveyed 3，553 individuals and 1，503 groups of siblings，and discovered that firstborn children tended to have higher educational aspirations and attainment.Only children and firstborn twins were not included in the study.
For each family involved in the study，research Feifei Bu examined siblings birth order，the number of children in the family，age spacing，sex，health，relationships with one another and educational aspirations.She found that firstborns had a greater probability---16 percent higher---of attending further education，compared with later-born sibling.
"The advantages of firstborns in educational outcomes may be partially explained by the fact that firstborns tend to have higher aspirations which push them toward high education levels，" Bu wrote in the published study.She further explained to The Guardian that parenting could play a role. "It could be that the parents simply devote more time and energy to them；it could be that they are actually more intelligent.For me，I tend to lean towards the theory that the amount of time，energy and involvement that parents put into caring for their children is possibly at work here，" she said.
She also found age spacing to be a contributing factor.The further apart in age the siblings---for example，a six year instead of one year difference---the more likely both kids were to be successful.The idea is that with widely spaced siblings，parents have the ability to spread out their resources.In other words，they have time to give each child more time and money.
But younger siblings shouldn't worry.The world is full of successful middle and youngest children willing to prove this study wrong.
（1）Who are more likely to complete higher levels of education according to Paragraphs 1 and 2？
A．Only children.
B．Firstborn twins.
C．Younger siblings.
D．Firstborn siblings.
（2）What is possibly important for kids' educational achievement according to Bu？
A．Parental investment.
B．Parents' intelligence.
C．Kids native intelligence.
D．Kids' school environment.
（3）What is the influence of wider age spacing between two siblings？
A．Both of them are more likely to succeed.
B．It may place more pressure on parents.
C．It may cause conflicts between them.
D．They are likely to be different from each other.
（4）Which is the closest in meaning with the underlined word in Paragraph 4？
A．inspirations
B．proportions
C．a(chǎn)mbitions
D．qualification組卷：1引用：1難度：0.5
