2016山东临清市高考英语二轮阅读理解选编练习（4）及答案 阅读理解训练 Upon entering college, Yang Yi was uncertain about a lot of things. However, the 19-year-old international economics and trade student was certain about one thing: She wanted to participate in animal welfare efforts. “Im always a nature and animal lover.” she said. She joined the environmental protection association at her school. Now being president of a group of 25, she leads its efforts to help stray(流浪) cats and dogs by raising money to buy them food and collecting old clothes to make them homes. However, sometimes the association raises doubts. Some students have questioned whether helping stray animals breaks the laws of nature. “We tried to resolve the controversy，” Yang said. “For wild animals, the best way to protect them is to preserve their environment and their natural habitat, and to let them live their own way. However, for animals that depend heavily on humans, such as dogs and cats, the proper way to treat them is to respect them and take care of them.” Besides, if not accommodated properly, stray animals can bring threats to public health, as they are the main cause of rabies(狂犬病) in cities. “Now, many young people in China have agreed upon the need to strike a balance between humans and nature. The only problem is how，” said Yang. Yang and her fellow volunteers are cautious about what they do to help. For instance, sometimes people feed stray cats human food such as chocolate. But Yang and her friends point that such food can be dangerous to stray cats. Yang also cooperates with Non-Governmental Organizations to spread animal protection knowledge. One of their recent exhibits was about animals in the entertainment industry, “We are still figuring out the best way to protect animals, but simple deeds such as saying no to animal performances can prevent wildlife from being captured and tamed. Step by step, well eventually reach our goal，” she said. 　　文章大意：这篇短文主要介绍：十九岁的国际经济贸易系的女大学生杨毅，她很喜欢大自然，是动物爱好者。为了不让那些流浪的狗、
