• 2．I work not only at the clinic but also on a private farm in Pensacola，Florida—a place our team of volunteers lovingly refers to as the Misfit Ranch，where we take in and nurse dogs that have been abused.
     It all went back to late 2009，when I'd felt so trapped then.One day I got a call from my friend Mary who was looking for a helper to move to her farm nearby and take care of the horses part-time.Something bright in me came back to life upon hearing it.Animals were a huge part of my growing-up years.My parents and I often brought home sick or injured dogs.We'd nurse them back to health and find them homes.Even though I was just a kid，I'd felt such joy and purpose then.
     Taking care of horses. . .Something in me said that I needed to do this.It was the horses that helped restore me.Their presence calmed me.Little by little，the fear that had its hold on me for so long disappeared.At the same time，I was considering a big plan
     I started volunteering with dog rescue groups in the area.I felt drawn to the dogs for whom it was hard to find homes.However，I wanted to be able to do more for these dogs.I began training to become a vet technician（兽医助手）.I started treating animals in 2017 and got a job at a clinic.
     Sometimes I would take stray（走失的） dogs home with me from the clinic to give them care overnight.I always had a soft spot for the tough cases—the broken ones who，to others，seemed hopeless.
     Word spread and I became the go-to for abused dogs in North Florida.Vets would give out my number and people would contact me through social media.The Misfit Ranch grew to a point where I needed help caring for these animals that had no place to call home.
  （1）What did Mary want the author to do？

  
  A．Look after the horses.

  C．Stay positive every day.

• 3．Overtourism happens when the number of tourists or the management of the tourism industry in a destination becomes unsustainable（不可持续的）.When there are too many visitors，the quality of life for the local community can be affected，the surrounding natural environment can become worse，and the quality of the tourists' experience can fall，
     However，in most places，overtourism is not a hopeless situation.Destinations all over the world have already showed ways to overcome the obstacles presented by overcrowding and unsustainable tourism management.
     East Africa，for example，has turned the gorilla（大猩猩）visiting into a once-in-a-lifetime experience by putting limits on daily permits，while maintaining conservation efforts inside native forests and offering jobs to local guides.In Antarctica，the Antarctic Treaty limits the size of ships that land there as well as the number of people they can bring ashore at one time；it also requires a minimum guide-to-tourist ratio（比率）while tourists are off the boat.
     Local governments，of course，are largely responsible for keeping sustainability in the tourism industry.But approaches to reducing the negative effects of overtourism can come down to individual travelers as well.One of the best ways is to become a responsible tourist by looking outside of the mainstream travel destinations.Consider outer cities or less-visited attractions to avoid crowds altogether while experiencing the destination's daily culture outside of the popular areas.There are countless places that want and need more tourists to explore.
     If you just have to visit the popular destinations，consider visiting during their off-season.People who rely on tourism to live on need support during the off-season more than any other time of year.Besides，it will save money since accommodations and flights tend to be cheaper.Even better，off-season travel puts less pressure on the environment.
  （1）What does the underlined word " obstacles " in paragraph 2 probably mean？

  
  A．Hesitations.
  B．Failures.
  C．Disagreements.
  D．Challenges.
  （2）What step has been taken concerning gorilla visiting in East Africa？

  
  A．Reducing local guides.
  B．Limiting daily permits.
  C．Expanding forest coverage.
  D．Attracting local visitors.
  （3）Which should be mainly responsible for sustainable tourism？

  
  A．Local authorities.
  B．Individual tourists.
  C．Travel agencies.
  D．Native people.
  （4）What advantage does off-season travel have？

  
  A．It suits the young and the old.
  B．It improves visitors' mental health.
  C．It's much cheaper and less crowded.
  D．It offers more cultural destinations.
