When visitors come in expecting to see a crocodile，they're greeted with the handbag instead，making a very effective and powerful point about illegal wildlife trade and the harm it takes on the species involved. A sign by the enclosure reads，“This bag used to be found swimming in slow­moving rivers and streams across Southeast Asia and Indonesia.Over the last 75 years，more than 80% of Siamese crocodiles have disappeared.Many，like this one，were hunted for their skins as part of the illegal wildlife trade.” Native to parts of Southeast Asia，Siamese crocodiles are critically endangered and have become virtually extinct in the wild.Due to hunting as well as habitat loss，they are now absent from nearly 99% of their original range.A huge part of the decline of population is due to humans using their wetland habitat for rice farming，and things only took a turn for the worse when large­scale hunting for their skin for commercial purposes began in the 1950s. The particular handbag that is on display at the zoo was confiscated at a UK airport，according to Benjamin Tapley，leader of reptiles and amphibians at ZSL London Zoo. Tapley told The Huffington Post，“We made this exhibit，within ZSL London Zoo's Reptile House，to draw visitors' attention to the destructive impact the illegal wildlife trade is having on species around the world.At ZSL，we are working globally with governments and local communities to protect wildlife，support law enforcement(执法) that targets illegal trade networks，empower local communities affected by illegal wildlife trade and reduce demand for threatened wildlife.” 1．Why does the sign say this handbag used to swim? A．It is made of a crocodile's skin. B．It is made into a crocodile shape. C．It is light enough to float on water. D．It was kept in flowing river at first. 2．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A．Wildly hunting of Siamese crocodiles. B．Destruction of Siamese crocodiles' habitats. C．Commercial value of Siamese crocodiles. D.Causes to make Siamese crocodiles endangered. 3．What does the underlined word “confiscated” in Paragraph 5 mean? A．Seized. B．Sold. C．Found. D．Stolen. 4．What does Tapley's words focus on? A．The importance of wildlife protection. B．The crisis endangered animals are facing. C．The purpose to show the handbag. D．The harm illegal wildlife trade caused. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。伦敦动物园的爬行动物馆展示了用鳄鱼皮做的手提包，以引起游客对非法野生动物贸易对世界各地物种破坏性影响的关注。 1．A　[解析]细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Over the last 75 years，more than 80% of Siamese crocodiles have disappeared.Many，like this one，were hunted for their skins as part of the illegal wildlife trade.(在过去的75年里，超过80%的暹罗鳄已经消失。许多暹罗鳄——比如这只——作为非法野生动物贸易的一部分被猎杀以获取皮毛。)”可知，牌子上说这个手提包过去会游泳，因为它是用鳄鱼皮做的。故选A。 2．D　[解析]主旨大意题。本段主要讲述的是暹罗鳄濒临灭绝的原因。故选D。 3．A　[解析]词义猜测题。根据画线处“The particular handbag that is on display at the zoo was(在动物园展出的那个特别的手提包)”以及“at a UK airport(在英国机场)”可知，这只在动物园展出的手提包是在英国机场被没收的，画线处和seized(没收，查封)含义接近。故选A。 4．C　[解析]推理判断题。根据文章最后一段可知，Tapley的话旨在引起游客对非法野生动物贸易对世界各地物种破坏性影响的关注。由此可知，他的话在于强调展示手提包的目的。故选C。 Ⅳ.七选五阅读 (2024·西安高二检测)Cities are diverse ecosystems.In addition to visitors from the world，a large number of species share our urban areas.1. Because cities are built for humans，they do not always provide suitable habitats for wildlife.2. But when we cut grass or plant flowers，we destroy natural habitats. However，our actions sometimes help other species.When a bridge in Austin，Texas was repaired，engineers added small gaps running along the length of its bottom.This made a good home for bats，and soon the bridge was the home of thousands of bats.3. Now，they have come to value their winged neighbours.The bats are a tourist attraction，and they eat lots of bugs every night. 4． The Beijing Olympic Forest Park is a good example.The park used native plants and created open，natural spaces for wildlife：The result is a zone in Beijing with over 160 species of birds.In many ways，the park is the opposite of a zoo.5. Another example is a tall “Birdscraper” building in New York，which is in the middle of a lake.Birds would sit on it，and their droppings would fall into the water to feed water plants which would then create oxygen through photosynthesis(光合作用). Only if we learn to share our space，can we become better neighbors to the wildlife around us. A．Therefore，we should learn to exist in harmony with nature. B．Instead of being kept in cages，wildlife can move about freely. C．At first，people were afraid of the bats and tried to get rid of them. D．There are also structures built with the objective of bringing wildlife into the city. E．For example，most city parks are kept neat and tidy so that humans will find them beautiful. F．In the past，bats always disturbed the life of people there and caused a lot of trouble to them. G．As our cities spread，we need to think about what it is like for other species to have human neighbors. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了作者对人类城市与野生动物关系的思考。 1．G　[解析]根据上文“Cities are diverse ecosystems.In addition to visitors from the world，a large number of species share our urban areas.”可知，本段谈论的是人类与其他物种之间的关系，G项“As our cities spread，we need to think about what it is like for other species to have human neighbors.(随着我们的城市扩张，我们需要思考其他物种有人类邻居是什么样的。)”符合语境。故选G。 2．E　[解析]根据上文“Because cities are built for humans，they do not always provide suitable habitats for wildlife.”可知，城市是为人类建造的，城市的公园也是为人类服务的。E项“For example，most city parks are kept neat and tidy so that humans will find them beautiful.(例如，大多数城市公园都保持整洁，这样人们就会发现它们很美。)” 符合语境。故选E。 3．C　[解析]根据下文“Now，they have come to value their winged neighbours.(现在，他们开始重视它们的有翼邻居。)”可知，根据下文的时间标志词可以判断空处与下文内容存在时间节点的对照关系。C项“At first，people were afraid of the bats and tried to get rid of them.(起初，人们害怕蝙蝠，并试图摆脱它们。)”符合语境，At first与后面的Now形成对比，且与蝙蝠有关。故选C。 4．D　[解析]根据下文“The Beijing Olympic Forest Park is a good example.The park used native plants and created open，natural spaces for wildlife”可知，本段主要介绍有些建筑是为野生动物建造的，D项“There are also structures built with the objective of bringing wildlife into the city.(也有一些建筑是为了将野生动物引入城市而建造的。)”符合语境。故选D。 5．B　[解析]根据上文“In many ways，the park is the opposite of a zoo.”可知，野生动物应该生活在野外。B项“Instead of being kept in cages，wildlife can move about freely.(野生动物可以自由活动，而不是被关在笼子里。)”符合语境，其中的Instead of与空前句中的opposite形成意义上的呼应。故选B。 Ⅴ.语法填空 (2024·盐城高二检测)The extinction of the Chinese paddle­fish(白鲟) and wild Yangtze sturgeon(野生长江鲟)，announced by the International Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN)，started 1. wave of comments on China's social media recently，2.
