(2016·四川成都四校联考)Whether they are hunters or the hunted, these cunning animals are all masters of disguise (伪装) who can fool even the most beady-eyed passers-by into believing they are not there.Some hide under lily pads, and some dissolve into the bark of a tree while others slip into the snow, either to hide from a hungry predator or to silently stalk (追踪) an unwitting prey.

masters of disguise.However, while they can hide from their predators they cannot escape the sharp eyes of American photographer Art Wolfe, who has spent over 35 years roaming (漫步) the deserts of Africa, the rainforests of South America, the mountains of the United States and snow plains of Canada to capture wildlife at its most invisibility.
The Seattle, WA photographer says that finding and filming these clever animals is a painstaking process, which often takes many hours.However for him, it is definitely worth the time because the thrill of capturing a creature that has managed to blend into its natural habitat so skillfully, is like none other.
His search has taken him to almost every continent in the world—from the deserts of Africa to the rainforests of South America and even, the snow plains of Canada.Over the years he has snapped so many amazing photos that he has been able to showcase them in two books—a children’s book entitled Hiding Out that was first published in 2003 and Vanishing Act, which first came to bookstores in 2005—both have been translated into several languages and been extremely popular all over the world. And, he is not done yet.The 61-year-old man who also happens to be a television producer continues to unearth nature’s beauties under lily pads, dissolved into tree trunks or stealthily awaiting their prey in the white snow! Would you have been able to spot any of them if you had not known what they were like in the photographs？Be sure to let us know, by adding your comments below. 语篇解读 本文是说明文。许多动物为了躲避捕食者或者为了捕获食物，常常需要巧妙地伪装自己。美国摄影师阿尔特·沃尔夫花了35年时间，在世界各地寻找并拍摄这些伪装大师。 1．Some animals fool predators by ________.

Temperature_Changes_in_Shenyang
As_is_shown_in_the_chart，the average temperature in October in Shenyang has been rising in the last 50 years，from 14℃ in 1965 to 20℃ in 2015.
Several reasons may account for the phenomenon.Firstly，with more and more vehicles running in the street，too much carbon dioxide is given off.What’s worse，trees and grasses are cut down to make room for factories，making it impossible for us to take in fresh air every day.Meanwhile，so many skyscrapers also contribute to the temperature rise.
