Question 2 is based on the news report you have just heard.

听力原文：

    A New Jersey black bear that walks upright on his two back legs and has become a social media darling has re-emerged and has been captured on video months after its last sighting. The bear, named Pedals was spotted in the town of Oak Ridge. In the video posted to Facebook featuring the bear, it appeared to be in relatively good health and was moving quickly.

    (1) Pedals apparently has an injured leg or paw that doesn’t allow it to walk comfortably on all fours, according to experts. Laurence Hajna, spokesman for the State Department of Environmental Protection, said officials expect the bear to make it through next winter.

    (2) The bear first gained fame after it was spotted wandering around neighborhoods and was caught on videos that were posted on social media and shown on national television. Last year, supporters pushed for Pedals to be moved to a shelter, but New Jersey officials have said they won’t allow the bear to be captured and transferred to the facility. “The bear would do better in its natural habitat, and the agency would step in if its condition deteriorated,” they said.

2. How is the bear first known to the public?

解析：B。本题为细节题。问题为：熊如何初次为大众所知？根据原文“The bear first gained fame after it was spotted wandering around neighborhoods and was caught on videos that were posted on social media and shown on national television.”，可知这只熊是在居民社区游荡时被发现并录像，视频发布在社交网站并在全国电视中播出之后而走红。B选项“Its videos were posted on social media”与原文一致，根据视听一致原则，为正确答案。
