Rowlings creative gifts，it is the craze that has swept through many countries for owning an owl.Many experts suggest that because Harry Potter fans would like to own their own owl，there is a strong chance that owls may soon start to die out.There are over 200 different species of owl.They are nocturnal birds，which means they are awake at night，usually hunting.They have large round eyes that face forwards on their flat faces.Owls also like to be on their own，unless it is the mating season.Indonesia is one of the main countries that are now selling owls to young and old Harry Potter fans.There are many bird markets throughout the country，with the largest being Pramuka in Indonesias capital city，Jakarta.Birds are Indonesias most popular pet，with about 20 percent of all homes keeping at least one.It is thought that about 13，000 owls are sold each year in Indonesias bird markets.They cost between $10 and $30.This is affordable for most families where the parents work.Most of the owls have been taken from the wild and do not live for very long once they have been caught.Not everyone is happy about the situation，including the Harry Potter author，J.K.Rowling.She said，“If anybody has been influenced by my books，to think an owl would be happiest shut in a small cage(笼子) and kept in a house，I would like to take this opportunity to say as forcefully as I can，You are wrong！”【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章介绍了哈利波特系列丛书和电影所带来的负面影响，即猫头鹰数量减少。1What purpose does Paragraph 1 serve?ATo bring up the topic.BTo express the main idea.CTo advertise Harry Potter books.DTo describe the authors favourite animal.A推理判断题。根据第一段作者对猫头鹰在哈利波特与魔法石中所扮演的角色及所起的作用的描写可知，第一段的目的是引出文章的话题哈利波特系列小说和电影对猫头鹰的影响。2What harmful result do the Harry Potter series bring about?AOwls being forced out of their homes.BAn increase in the animal attacks.CDamage to childrens creativity.DA fall in the numbers of owls.D细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But if there has been one bad result of JK.
