The library had a small area, where the soft carpet, folding chairs and lap desks __17__ a comfortable space for independent reading. My dad would sit there for hours.

My dad was a “panic merchant” at the best of times, so I can only __20__ what he was like when this happened. The doors had been locked from the outside and he had no way __21__.

So he rang the police station and they kindly got in touch with the head librarian.

The head librarian immediately rang my dad back at the library, and __26__ that she would be soon there. She tried to __27__ him and even explained how he could make a coffee if he wished. This was very nice, but my dad was in too much of a “__28__” to do so.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Dear Koko,

I’ve learned about you from my amazing teacher. I think it’s fun that you can communicate with us humans by using the sign language. I’ve spent a lot of tim e watching you in different videos and love you from the bottom of my heart.

It’s heartbreaking to learn about all of the cruel things done to gorillas (大猩猩). In Africa, for example, the killers use guns to kill your fellows for meat. They don’t understand the influence their actions are having on gorillas. Another thing is the loss of gorillas’ natural home, which is caused by the improved infrastructure such as building roads and airports. When we cut down trees, you become homeless. We take away your shelter and sources of food, leaving you with very little chance of survival.

Some of my classmates are writing to the relevant departments about these serious problems. Hopefully these letters will make a difference during your lifetime. Over the past three months, my class has been researching on gorillas, and I’ve learned so many things. For example, I’ve learned that you have a lot of feelings similar to mine and you are always so careful with everything you do. I think that you are really worth saving.

W e’ve come up with many ideas to help you and your fellows. One of the best ideas is to communicate with the President of the World Bank and have him give more financial support to the organizations for gorillas. Another idea is to make public laws on the killers. I also think we need to keep educating people about gorillas.

I love writing to you and hope you can understand how important you’ve become to our class. Would it be too much to ask for a return letter?

Mike

36. According to the passage, Koko is probably ______.

A. a killer of gorillas

B. a member of the gorilla family

C. an expert on gorillas

D. a governor in charge of gorillas

37. What is mainly talked about in the second paragraph?

A. The problems gorillas face at present.

B. The danger gorillas cause for humans.

C. The unique characteristic gorillas have.

D. The natural environment gorillas live in.

38. The author suggests that ______.
