That was on a Friday.On Sunday,when the white cat showed no sign of leaving and was still high in the tree,Ellen Albert called Erie Valley Fire and Rescue for help with her pet. "Fluffy was about 40 feet in the air.Too high for the ladders we carry,"Ryan Shanower of Erie Valley Fire and Rescue said."She was also near some power lines that caused danger.We tried cat food on day two of her being there and hoped by evening she'd be down.High winds and hard rain on day one evening and most of day two made the rescue attempts more difficult." Fire Chief Rick Annen told his theory about how the cat ended up so high in the tree.Annen saw hawks()sitting on a building across the street and noticed Fluffy's regular collar and flea collar were both missing.He figured a hawk had picked up Fluffy by the collars and she had gotten free and fallen high in the pine tree By day three,the rain had stopped enough,but Fluffy still wouldn't,or couldn't,come down.The fire department reached out to a local tree service to see if they'd lend a hand to the frightened cat.They showed up with a bucket truck they use to trim(tall trees.Once the bucket truck was up in the air,Fluffy was down in a minute or two It was a happy ending,for sure,but not a common day's work for these firefighters. 21.What added to the difficulty in rescuing the cat? A.Bad weather. B.No effective tools. C.The power lines. D.The cat's weakness. 22.What can we know about the cat Fluffy? A.It tended to climb trees when hungry. B.It climbed up to the pine tree on Friday C.Its situation might be caused by a hawk. D.Its collars were on the top of the pine tree. 23.How did people rescue the cat finally?

C Passenger pigeons(were the most common birds in all of North America in the 1800s.It was common to see large groups of passenger pigeons-groups that made a sound like a storm.But today,they are extinct because of human behaviour.Now,some scientists want to bring passenger pigeons back to life by using new technology and scientific ideas.They call this process de-extinction. De-extinction has not happened yet.It is still just an idea.The process of de- extinction is not easy.First,scientists must collect DNA from the bodies of extinct animals.Then they will put it in the eggs of similar animal species.When these animals become adults,they will have babies.And these baby animals will have the DNA of the extinct animals. Scientists believe it is possible to bring back passenger pigeons and many other animals.However,not everyone thinks this is a good idea. Stuart Primm is the world's leading expert on modern animal extinction.He believes that bringing extinct animals back to life is bad for the earth.On one hand,these animals no longer have a safe place to live.On the other hand,they could cause other animals to die. Many other scientists do not agree with Stuart Primm.Stuart Brand,a writer and scientist,is one of them.He believes de-extinction is good for many reasons. "The current generation()of children will experience the return of some unusual animals in their lifetime.It may be part of what defines their generation and their attitude to the natural world.They will take their parents to zoos to see the growing populations of passenger pigeons,and maybe even dodo birds.This will provide a good deal of money for zoos busy with extinct species restoration( )Humans killed off a lot of species over the last 10,000 years.So,it's right to bring some back to life,"he said 28.In the 19th century,passenger pigeons A.were common sightings B.suffered a lot from storms C.lived mainly in North America D.were the largest in American history 29.What do we know about de-extinction? A.It will change the DNA of the extinct animals. B.It was first used in passenger pigeons. C.It is difficult to carry out. D.It proved to be useful. 30.Why is Stuart Primm against bringing back extinct animals? A.Because they will die very soon. B.Because they will create other problems C.Because they will do great harm to humans. D.Because they will replace the similar species. 31.How does Stuart Brand feel about de-extinction? A.Wrong. B.Difficult
