Nowadays, with the development of our society, more and more cultural relics are facing the danger of disappearing. So we must attach importance to the problem and try our best to protect them. ①As we all know, cultural relics offer us a great opportunity to learn about what happened in the past. ②Only when they are preserved well can we pass on our culture from generation to generation.  As students, we can make our own contributions to preserve them. For example, we can make apps or websites about some cultural relics to tell people the stories behind them. Besides, we can call on international cooperation if it is too hard for ourselves to preserve some badly-damaged cultural relics.     I hope more and more people will become concerned about protecting our cultural relics. Sincerely, Li Hua 6.假定你是李华，你校将举办主题为“保护文化遗产”的英语演讲比赛，请你写一篇演讲稿参赛，内容包括： 1.保护文化遗产的意义； 2.青少年可以为文化遗产保护做什么：学习、推广…… 注意： 1.写作词数应为100 词左右； 2.请按如下格式在相应的位置作答。 Good morning, everyone!                                                                                                                                                                                           ​​​​​​​ Thank you for listening! 【答案】Good morning, everyone!         (My name is Li Hua.) It is a great honor to be here sharing my ideas of preserving cultural heritage. Why should we protect cultural heritage? ①They are what our ancestors left to us, from which we can learn a lot. If destroyed, they can't be restored and thus our future generations won't have the opportunity to appreciate them.         In addition to the authorities and professionals, we teenagers can also make a difference in the protection work. Firstly, we are supposed to learn more about cultural heritage so that we can better help protect them. ②Secondly, we can think of some effective ways to promote them, raising people's awareness of protecting them. For example, we can create some apps to make them accessible. Finally, it is also of great significance to bravely stop some destruction phenomena around us. Let us join hands together to protect our splendid ancient civilization. We may be slightly young, but as long as we have a firm belief, jewels will shine forever.         Thank you for listening! 4．C 5．C 6．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了国家地理出版社出版的四款地图，分别针对冰岛、阿拉斯加、克罗地亚和肯尼亚这四个旅游目的地，提供了详细的地理信息、旅游景点标注和旅游辅助功能等，旨在帮助旅行者更好地规划和享受旅行。 4．细节理解题。由文章第二段最后一句“The perfect mapping of remote roads will help you explore safely after field testing by our professional team.(经过我们专业团队的实地测试后，对偏远道路的完美测绘将帮助您安全探索)”可知，冰岛地图与传统地图的不同之处在于它为偏远道路提供了可靠的指引。故选C项。 5．细节理解题。由文章第四段对克罗地亚地图的介绍“Called “the treasure of the Adriatie Sea”, Croatia’s medieval (中世纪的) cities and greenish-blue seas make this small Mediterranean country big on adventure.(克罗地亚被称为“亚德里亚海的宝藏”，它的中世纪城市和蓝绿色的海洋让这个地中海小国充满了冒险精神)”以及“Start your adventure at the waterfalls of Plitvice Lakes, Visit the two most beautiful rivers in Europe, the Zrmanja and Krupa, or take your little boat to the Elafiti islands in the Adriatic Sea.(从普利特维采湖群的水瀑开始你的冒险之旅，参观欧洲两条最美丽的河流——兹马尼亚河和克鲁帕河，或者乘着小船去亚德里亚海的埃拉菲蒂群岛)”可知，克罗地亚地图最适合喜欢水景的人。故选C项。 6．细节理解题。由文章最后一段最后一句“One of the best parts of the map is traveling aids such as the locations of airports, railways, petrol stations, park entrances, and border crossings, taking the guesswork out of travel around the country.(地图最好的部分之一是旅行辅助工具，如机场、铁路、加油站、公园入口和边境口岸的位置，让你无需猜测就能在该国各地旅行)”可知，肯尼亚地图最好的部分是它提供了方便的旅行辅助工具。故选D项。 7．D 8．C 9．A 10．D 【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了由于污染，泰姬陵白色的石墙都变颜色了。 7．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The insects’ droppings are beginning to turn the walls green.(昆虫的粪便开始把墙壁染成绿色。)”可知，昆虫留下的粪便使得泰姬陵的石墙变成了绿色。故选D。 8．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“But experts fear cleaning could damage the artwork of the Taj Mahal.(但专家担心，清洁工作可能会损坏泰姬陵的艺术品。)”可知，专家担心，清洗会对泰姬陵的艺术造成损坏。所以清洗工作是比较有挑战性的。故选C。 9．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“There are many coal­based power stations along the river. The Taj Mahal’s white stone has turned yellow because of air pollution. Besides, waste from industries is polluting the river.( 沿河有许多燃煤发电站。由于空气污染，泰姬陵的白色石头已经变黄了。此外，工业废料正在污染这条河。)”可知，亚穆纳河沿岸有许多燃煤发电站，造成的空气污染使泰姬陵的白石墙变黄了。另外，从工厂排出的工业废物也污染着河水。环保人士D. K. Joshi认为，应当治理这些污染企业。故选A。 10．推理判断题。根据第四段的“So city officials should force people to try more environmentally friendly customs.(因此，城市官员应该强迫人们尝试更环保的习俗。)”可知，专家认为，城市官员应迫使人们尝试较为环保的丧葬习俗。故选D。 11．C 12．A 13．A 14．B 【分析】这是一篇说明文。一组科学家正在加紧记录和保护波多黎各海岸的古代遗迹。这项工作于2017年8月开始，科学家在波多黎各北部海岸发现了古泰诺印第安人的居住地，文章介绍了古泰诺印第安人的一些知识以及这些遗址遭受自然灾害破坏的影响。 19．细节理解题。根据第二段中“With the help of 3D imaging and other advanced technologies, the scientists have explored a large piece of land along Puerto Rico's north coast and identified an ancient ceremonial center used by the Taino Indians.(在3D成像和其他先进技术的帮助下，科学家们探索了波多黎各北部海岸的一大片土地，并发现了泰诺印第安人使用的一个古代仪式中心)”可知，科学家们在波多黎各北部海岸发现了古泰诺印第安人的居住地。故选C。 20．细节理解题。根据第二段中“About 2,000 years ago, the Tainoes lived on many islands in the Caribbean Sea. But after the arrival of Christopher Columbus and other Europeans, they were all killed.(大约2000年前，泰诺人生活在加勒比海的许多岛屿上。但在Christopher Columbus和其他欧洲人到达后，他们都被杀害了)”可知，泰诺人从加勒比海的岛屿上消失是因为他们被欧洲人杀死了。故选A。 21．主旨大意题。根据第五段“Warmer temperatures in the Caribbean increase the number and strength of storms and Puerto Rico faces the possibility of storms every year for six months during the Atlantic hurricane season. Hurricane Maria had already washed away part of its history.(加勒比地区气温升高，风暴的数量和强度增加，而波多黎各在大西洋飓风季节每年有6个月面临风暴的可能性。飓风玛利亚已经把它的一部分历史冲走了)”可知，第五段主要讲了暴风雨造成的严重破坏。故选A。 22．主旨大意题。根据第一段“A group of scientists are hurrying to document and protect the ancient ruins along Puerto Rico's coasts. They are working as fast as they can before rising sea levels destroy a large part of the island's history.(一组科学家正在加紧记录和保护波多黎各海岸的古代遗迹。他们正在以最快的速度工作，以免上升的海平面摧毁该岛大部分的历史)”结合文章介绍了这项工作于2017年8月开始，科学家在波多黎各北部海岸发现了古泰诺印第安人的居住地，文章还介绍了古泰诺印第安人的一些知识以及这些遗址遭受自然灾害破坏的影响。可知，B选项“对于保护波多黎各海岸遗产的努力”最符合文章标题。故选B。 七选五 33．C 34．D 35．E 36．B 37．G 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了短时间内克服文化冲击的建议。 33．根据上文“Culture shock is the experience that often accompanies moving to an unfamiliar place. It could be marked by feeling lost, anxious or hesitant.(文化冲击是指移居到一个不熟悉的地方所带来的体验。它的特点可能是感到失落、焦虑或犹豫)”以及后文“You’ll become accustomed to the same things that initially “shocked” you!(你会习惯最初“震惊”你的同样的事情)”可知，后文提到了会习惯文化冲击，说明文化冲击最终会消失。故C选项“文化冲击最终会消失”符合语境，故选C。 34．根据上文“When deciding to visit an entirely new place, don’t expect the traditions and cultures followed by your current home to be followed by the new land.(当你决定去一个全新的地方旅游时，不要指望你现在的家乡所遵循的传统和文化会被新的地方所遵循)”可知，上文提到了新的地方有新的传统和文化，故本句承接上文说明每个地方文化方面的不同。故D选项“每个城市或国家都有自己的价值观和信仰”符合语境，故选D。 35．根据上文“Even though it is an unfamiliar environment hosting different cultures and traditions from the one you’re used to, it’s vital to broaden your mind and be willing to try new things. Don’t be quick to form discriminatory judgments just because it is “odd”. Have a go at something different, like a food or clothing — different isn’t necessarily bad.(即使这是一个陌生的环境，与你所习惯的环境有着不同的文化和传统，拓宽你的思维，愿意尝试新事物也是至关重要的。不要因为它“奇怪”就迅速形成歧视性的判断。尝试一些不同的东西，比如食物或衣服——不同并不一定是坏事)”可知，本句为本段最后一句，承接上文说明尝试新事物的原因。故E选项“你永远不知道你会在哪里找到兴趣”符合语境，故选E。 36．根据上文“Social psychologists claim that lack of information is the biggest contributor to prejudices. Talk to the local population and ask them about how their culture works instead of assuming the worst.(社会心理学家声称，缺乏信息是造成偏见的最大原因。与当地人交谈，询问他们的文化是如何运作的，而不是假设最坏的情况)”可知，本句承接上文说明与当地人交谈所带来的好处。故B选项“你可以洞察周围的环境”符合语境，故选B。 37．根据上文“Keep yourself open-minded, await new experiences and familiarize yourself with the conduct of the people.(保持开放的心态，等待新的经历，熟悉人们的行为)”可知，本句承接上文，说明上文一系列的行为的影响。故G选项“只要你坚持下去，你很快就会适应新的文化”符合语境，故选G。 完形 43．D 44．B 45．C 46．B 47．A 48．D 49．A 50．B 51．C 52．A 53．A 54．B 55．C 56．A 57．A 58．B 59．C 60．D 61．C 62．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。作者通过自身的经历与感受，介绍了微笑和眼神交流在不同国家和文化中的不同含义。 43．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我是一个典型的美国人，习惯在和别人说话时进行眼神交流和微笑。A. limited有限的；B. devoted奉献的；C. addicted上瘾的；D. accustomed习惯的。根据上文“I’m a typical American(我是一个典型的美国人)”以及美国人与人说话时喜欢进行眼神交流可知，此处表示“习惯进行眼神交流和微笑”。故选D项。 44．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：但直到我在国外度过一段时间，我才真正意识到我的面部表情能传达什么。A. ashamed羞愧的；B. aware意识到的；C. fond喜爱的；D. proud自豪的。根据下文“In the UK, I ____3____ not everyone made as much eye contact on the street as I did.(在英国，我发现并不是每个人在街上都像我一样多地进行眼神交流)”可知，我在英国的生活让我意识到眼神交流会传达不同含义。故选B项。 45．考查动词词义辨析。句意：在英国，我发现并不是每个人在街上都像我一样多地进行眼神交流。A. admitted承认；B. imagined想象；C. discovered发现；D. declared宣布。根据上文“But until I spent time abroad, I was never quite ____2____ of what my facial expressions could convey.(但直到我在国外度过一段时间，我才真正意识到我的面部表情能传达什么)”可知，作者意识到面部表情在不同国家有不同含义，所以此处指作者在英国发现了眼神交流的不同。故选C项。 46．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：在商务会议上很少有眼神交流。A. special特别的；B. rare少见的；C. funny有趣的；D. necessary必要的。根据上文“not everyone made as much eye contact (不是每个人都有那么多的眼神交流)”可知，此处表示“眼神交流很少”。故选B项。 47．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我甜美的微笑被认为是轻浮的。A. sweet甜的；B. artificial人工的；C. strange陌生的；D. purposeful故意的。根据上文“I’m a typical American, ____1____ to making eye contact and smiling when speaking to others.

Large numbers of insects are breeding (繁殖) in the polluted waterway. During the evening time, the insects get attracted to stone walls and during the night they stay over there. The insects’ droppings are beginning to turn the walls green. Workers first discovered the problem last year. But they have found out the cause of the problem only recently. A fly known as the genus Geoldichironomus is responsible for all the waste. Those insects survive best in the hot weather. Workers try to remove the insects’ waste. But experts fear cleaning could damage the artwork of the Taj Mahal. Environmentalist D．K. Joshi says, “The way to stop this new threat is to save the dying river. There are many coal­based power stations along the river. The Taj Mahal’s white stone has turned yellow because of air pollution. Besides, waste from industries is polluting the river. Millions of dollars from the government has been spent on the river, but nothing has happened.” Experts say ashes (骨灰) from burnt human dead bodies are part of the problem. For 200 years, people have set fire to dead bodies near the Taj Mahal. Smoke from the fires was greatly influencing the color of the white stone. So city officials should force people to try more environmentally friendly customs. D．K. Joshi believes cleaning the Yamuna River is possible with a short­term program. The insects have got the attention of city officials. But he is also concerned about the pressure that tourism puts on the Taj Mahal. About six million people visit the Taj Mahal every year and they like to touch the white stone. 7．What’s the new threat to the Taj Mahal? A．Water around it is dirty. B．Some stone walls get broken. C．Many insects live in the Taj Mahal. D．Insects leave waste on stone walls. 8．What do experts think of the cleaning work? A．Useless. B．Creative. C．Challenging. D．Interesting. 9．What do D．K. Joshi’s words mean? A．It’s necessary to deal with polluters. B．All the power stations should be closed. C．It’s a waste of money to clean the Yamuna River. D．The government pays no attention to the Yamuna River. 10．What do the experts suggest? A．City officials should ignore the insects. B．Tourists should help clean the Taj Mahal. C．Fires should be used to kill some insects. D．People should give up the tradition of burning the dead near the Taj Mahal. C A group of scientists are hurrying to document and protect the ancient ruins along Puerto Rico's coasts. They are working as fast as they can before rising sea levels destroy a large part of the island's history. The work started in August 2017. With the help of 3D imaging and other advanced technologies, the scientists have explored a large piece of land along Puerto Rico's north coast and identified an ancient ceremonial center used by the Taino Indians. About 2,000 years ago, the Tainoes lived on many islands in the Caribbean Sea. But after the arrival of Christopher Columbus and other Europeans, they were all killed. Scientists also found a large living place just east of the site? which is seriously endangered by rising sea levels and other natural disasters. Puerto Rico's Department of Natural Resources has said the sea level around the island is rising by more than 3 mm every year. However, climate change has more immediate effects. These include the destruction of the Puerto Rico coastline and natural habitats by storms. Warmer temperatures in the Caribbean increase the number and strength of storms and Puerto Rico faces the possibility of storms every year for six months during the Atlantic hurricane season. Hurricane Maria had already washed away part of its history. Scientists are now trying to find out how badly the hurricanes and loss of land have affected the heritage site they are studying. Eric Lo is an engineer who flew to Puerto Rico in August 2017 to start the project one month before Maria struck the island. Lo was surprised at what he saw when he returned months later. “Pieces of land where I stood do not exist anymore. They are underwater,” he said. 11．Where did the scientists find the ancient Taino Indians' living place? A．Under the Caribbean Sea. B．In a European country. C．On Puerto Rico's north coast. D．Along Puerto Rico's east coast. 12．Why have the Tainos disappeared from the islands in the Caribbean Sea? A．They were killed by the Europeans. B．They were destroyed by Hurricane Maria. C．They were driven away by the rising sea levels. D．They were moved away by their government. 13．What is paragraph 5 mainly about? A．The serious damage caused by storms. B．The plan to protect the heritage sites. C.The loss of natural habitats in Puerto Rico. D.The worsening climate conditions in the world. 14．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A.The Obvious Effects of Global Climate Change B.Efforts to Preserve Puerto Rico's Coastal Heritage C.New Discoveries of Ancient Taino Indians' Ruins D.Technologies Used to Identify the Ancient Ruins 七选五 Culture shock is the experience that often accompanies moving to an unfamiliar place. It could be marked by feeling lost, anxious or hesitant. 33 You’ll become accustomed to the same things that initially “shocked” you! Read on for tips for overcoming culture shock in a short time. When deciding to visit an entirely new place, don’t expect the traditions and cultures followed by your current home to be followed by the new land. 34 So keep your expectations low. Even though it is an unfamiliar environment hosting different cultures and traditions from the one you’re used to, it’s vital to broaden your mind and be willing to try new things. Don’t be quick to form discriminatory judgments just because it is “odd”. Have a go at something different, like a food or clothing — different isn’t necessarily bad. 35 Social psychologists claim that lack of information is the biggest contributor to prejudices. Talk to the local population and ask them about how their culture works instead of assuming the worst. 36 Plus, you’ll make some friends who can ease your transformation. Keep yourself open-minded, await new experiences and familiarize yourself with the conduct of the people. 37 Go out there and have fun! A．Integrity breaks down barriers. B．You can gain insight into your surroundings. C．Culture shock will eventually disappear, though. D．Every city or country has its own values and beliefs. E．Never do you know where you might find an interest. F．Consequently, such memories are what you should treasure. G．As long as you stick to that, you’ll soon adjust to the new culture. 必修二 Unit2 基础过关+能力提升 【阅读词汇】会读 知意 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 1.species n. 2.shark n. 3.fin n. 4.habitat n. 5.authority n. 6.whale n. 7.plain n. adj. 8.fur n. 9.sacred adj. 10.creature n. 11.deer n. 12.kangaroo n. 13.insect n. 14.net n. adj. 15.neighbourhood n. 16.dolphin n. 【写作词汇】会写 会用 1. n.海报 2. adj.大量的；n.大量；群 3. n.平均数 adj.平均的；普通的 4. adj.活的 n.生活 5. n.措施；方法 vt.测量； 6. n.压力；要求 7. n.保护区； vt.预订；预留 8. vt.提醒；使想起 9. vt. & vi.射杀；发射 10. n. v.获益； 11. n., vi. & vt.攻击移开；脱去 13. n.商品；货物 14. adj.由于；因为 15. vt.激发；搅动 16. n.皮；皮肤 拓展词汇 1. adj.不合法的；非法的→ adj.法律的；与法律相关的；合法的→ adv.不合法地；非法地 2. vt. & vi.打猎→ n.打猎 n.猎人 3. adv.立刻 adj.立刻的 4. vt.使惊恐；使害怕；使担心 n.恐慌；警报；警报器→ adj.惊人的；使人惊恐的→ adj.担心；害怕 5. n.速度 vt.划分等级 6. adj.已灭绝的 n.灭绝 7. dj.知道；有…意识的 n. adj.未察觉； 8. vt危害 adj.濒于灭绝的 n.危险 adj. 9. vt.涉及；让……担忧 n.［U］ 关心；担心； adj.担心的→ prep.关于_________________ 10. vt.使适应；改编 vi.适应 n.适应；改写本 adj.有适应能力的 11. vt.观察（到）；注视；遵守（规则、法律等）；庆祝，庆贺 n. 12. n. 美美好的东西→ adj.美丽的 vt.美化，使更美丽 13. adj.有效的 n.效果 14. vi.痊愈 vt.找回 n痊愈 15. vi. & vt.打算；计划；想要→ n.目的；意图 16. n.威胁 vt.威胁；危及 17. vi.存在 n.存在；生活方式 adj.现存的；现行的 18. n.和谐 adj.和谐的 19. vt.减少 n.缩减；减少 20. n.感情；情感；情绪 adj.情感的；情绪的 21. adj.特别的 adj.通常的；惯常的 adv.通常地 2 高频短语 1. 究竟；到底 2. 灭亡；逐渐消失 3. 意识到；知道 4. 平均 5. 取得进步 6. 对……关切的；为……担忧的 7. 适应 8. 在压力下；承受压力 9. 看清；听清；分清 10. 使某人想起（类似的人或物） 11. 保护；照管；监督 12. 日日夜夜；夜以继日 13. 由于；因为 14. 搜索；查找 15. 熄灭；生产，制造；出版，公布 16. 激起 3. 词汇语境运用 The air is thin and we have to rest several times on the short _____ from camp.

The conditions in which the animals were found have caused fears that the rising global temperatures may be passing the tolerance level for vulnerable (易受伤害的) species. The dead bodies of animals appeared at Lake Tefé, a branch of the Amazon River, alongside thousands of dead fish. Experts believe that the low river levels, added to the unbearable water temperatures, triggered the dolphins’ death. The Amazon River dolphin is native to South America. It is also known by the locals as boto, and can be pink or gray. Scientists noted that roughly eight of every 10 deaths are pink dolphins, which could represent 10% of their estimated population in Lake Tefé. “The past month in Tefé has seemed like a science-fiction climate-change description,” Daniel Tregidgo, a British researcher living in the area, told The Guardian. “To know that one has died is sad, but to see lots of dead bodies, knowing that this drought has killed over 100 dolphins, is a tragedy.” The International Union for the Conservation of Nature classifies botos as endangered, and there are only six existing freshwater dolphin species left in the world. The effects of the drought are also felt by the populations living on the edges of the river. The level of the Amazon River has fallen by 30 centimeters each day over the past two weeks. Since most food and fuel supplies are transported by boat, there are concerns that this could drive up prices and cause food insecurity. The drought has also impacted fishing, an activity that provides food and income for many families in the region. The Amazon has historically been known for its biodiversity, as it is home to 10% of all the wildlife species we know about. Sadly, it now seems to be front row to the effects of global warming, affecting both endangered species and vulnerable communities. Now, the community is preparing for more droughts over the next couple of weeks, which could result in more animal deaths and further hardships for the region. 1．Which of the following words can best replace the underlined word “triggered” in Paragraph 2? A．Avoided. B．Removed. C．Decreased. D．Caused. 2．What’s the function of the figures in Paragraph 3? A．To call for urgent rescue. B．To raise readers’ interest in animals. C．To show the severe situation. D．To analyze the types of dolphins. 3．What can be inferred from Tregidgo’s words? A．The disaster was really a shock to him. B．The locals took no measures to tackle the drought. C．Removing dead dolphins put researchers in trouble. D．The massive deaths mainly resulted from high temperatures. 4．What is a consequence of the drought according to Paragraph 5? A．Dolphins’ sickness. B．Food shortage. C．Decreasing demand for food. D．Work-family conflict. B Bumblebees are vanishing at a rate consistent with widespread extinction, and climate change is playing a big role. The analysis comes from a new study published in the journal Science today. The authors found that the likelihood of a bumblebee population surviving in any given place within North America and Europe has dropped by an average of 30 percent as temperatures have risen. Pesticides, habitat loss, and pathogens(病原体) have already hit bumblebee populations hard. The new study, however, is able to isolate the effect that hotter temperatures are having on bumblebees. Sadly, bees are having a hard time adapting to a warming world. “If things continue along the path without any change, then we can really quickly start to see a lot of these species being lost forever,” lead author of the study Peter Soroye tells The Verge. That’s not just a tragedy for the bees. It’s also bad news for all the plants that they pollinate and for humans who eat the fruits (and vegetables) of their labor. “We also lose out on a lot of color on our plates,” Soroye says. “Tomatoes, squash, and berries are just some of the crops we can thank bees for pollinating. Animal pollinators like bees, birds, and butterflies could be responsible for up to 1 out of every 3 bites of food we eat,” the US Department of Agriculture says. For this study, Soroye and colleagues examined data from 1900 to 2015 on 66 species of bumblebees across North America and Europe. They mapped the places bees called home and how their distribution changed over time. They found that bees were vanishing in the areas that had heated up beyond the limit in which the bumblebees had historically been able to survive. Some bee populations are colonizing new territories that were previously too cold. But those gains are overshadowed by losses in areas where the bees once thrived but are now too hot. 10．What is bumblebees’ main struggle? A．Habitat loss B．Climate change C．Human activities D．Virus treat 11．What might Peter Soroye agree? A．Humans can barely strive to save bumblebees from extinction. B．Bumblebees will inevitably die out some day. C．Bumblebees serve as a delicacy on our plates. D．Human’s lives are tightly linked to bumblebees’. 12．What is TRUE according to the passage? A．Animal pollinators eat up 1 out of 3 of our food. B．Peter Soroye’s study started from 1900 and lasted 25 years. C．Bumblebees can not be accustomed to the places they used to live in. D．Bumblebees are more used to colder weather. 13．What does the last sentence mean? A．The negative effects outweigh the positive ones. B．No cold areas are left for Bumblebees. C．The losses are beyond estimation. D．Bumblebees will have a rather bright future. C Every summer, the Serengeti plains of Africa are worth visiting. Millions of wild animals begin their 1,800-mile journey northwards on their annual migratory (迁移的) route. In the month of November, polar bears in their thousands cross the Canadian Arctic, as they head towards the ice sheets of Hudson Bay. The sea ice that forms every winter is the key to the bear’s managing to exist, for here they hunt for seals (海豹). The Great Bustard, one of the heaviest flying birds, migrates each year across Europe and Asia to its wintering grounds. Unluckily, these and other migratory animals are in danger from human activity. We have written several articles on climate change and the effect of rising ocean temperatures. Since 1979, ice sheets in the Arctic have gone down by 30 percent. What does this mean for polar bears? They are forced to stay on land for longer periods of time, which delays their search for food. As a result, bears today are 60 pounds lighter than what they were. Besides, smaller bears also produce weaker babies, and their chances of survival are at risk. In the plains of Africa, migratory animals like gazelles are traveling long distances for food, just to avoid falling prey (猎物) to humans who hunt them. In an unusual step, experts from 120 countries have agreed to protect 31 migratory mammals, fish and birds. The United Nation’s 11th annual Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals was held in Quito, Ecuador. For the first time, 900 experts attended the conference, and the enthusiastic support shows the world is united in conservation (保护) efforts. What does getting on a protected list mean? Countries that have signed the agreement will be required to pass laws locally and work with other countries that fall within the animal’s migratory path. Only one animal did not make the list. The African lion was rejected (拒绝) for lack of information of the countries where it lives. 14．What can we learn from the passage? A．The Great Bustard is one of the largest flying birds. B．The weight of polar bears today is lighter than what it was. C．In the 1970s, ice sheets went down by 30 percent. D．120 experts have agreed to protect 21 migratory animals. 15．All these factors have probably put the migratory animals in danger EXCEPT ___. A．some human activities B．the enthusiastic support from experts C．rising ocean temperatures D．climate change 16．Why was the African lion not included in the list from the passage? A．We don’t know which countries it lives in. B．It isn’t a migratory animal. C．Experts are not interested in this animal. D．It is not traveling long distances for food. 17．The author writes this passage aiming to ________. A．let us know about the animals B．prevent the rare animals from dying out C．inform us of the effects of climate change D．draw our attention to helping the migratory animal 五、完形填空（共15小题） It was a foggy Thursday morning when animal services supervisor Josh Henderson received news of amass death. 395 migratory birds died after 18 into one office tower in Galveston, Texas. Henderson rushed to the spot, only to witness the horrifying scene of feathers from yellow and orange to blue and grey of the lifeless small-featured bodies. “It was awe-inspiring but 19 ,” says Henderson. Most of the bodies were warblers; small, bright, colorful birds that are particularly common in Texas. They had been on their homecoming spring migration, a legendary journey that takes them from 20 sites as far south as Mexico to nesting sites-as-far north as Canada. For birds, Texas is a major flyover state: approximately two billion birds fly through this “Lone Star” state in the spring. Along the route, a host of 21 exist, including bright city lights. Every year, between 365 million and one billion birds are thought to be killed in building collisions in the US. The scene of mass collision in Galveston was a 23-floor 22 called One Moody Plaza. As the tallest building in downtown Galveston, it had four corner spotlights 23 straight up in the sky and a glowing green halo of LED lights around the top. “Every tragedy, 24 , is also an opportunity to educate” Henderson 25 the birds. His team was able to save and help three birds recover. Besides, Houston Audubon, a bird conservation organization, which occupies the building, is taking action and 26 developing a science-based response. American National has 27 and is still following a policy of turning off their outer building spotlights and inner lights at night during the spring and fall migratory seasons. Workshops are also held in Galveston to 28 the community on migratory bird patterns in this area. Around 24 communities in Texas have 29 to follow this kind of Lights Out initiative. Chicago, Houston, Dallas, New York City and Atlanta are the cities where the threat to migrating birds is greatest 30 light pollution. And all these cities are also 31 the Lights Out campaign, according to Audubon’s records. Protecting birds is vital both for their own sake and for the wider ecosystem. However, their moving constantly presents special 32 for researchers and conservationists to take measures that are effective enough. Given this complex picture, widespread awareness and efficient enforcement are still the priorities. 18．A．collapsing B．crashing C．cracking D．conflicting 19．A．marvelous B．vivid C．tragic D．impressive 20．A．sheltering B．breeding C．sleeping D．wintering 21．A．hazards B．opportunities C．obstacles D．enemies 22．A．studio B．block C．skyscraper D．apartment 23．A．holding B．putting C．pointing D．turning 24．A．therefore B．moreover C．thus D．however 25．A．sorted B．abandoned C．removed D．preserved 26．A．optimistically B．actively C．reluctantly D．strictly 27．A．interrupted B．implemented C．interfered D．incorporated 28．A．educate B．warn C．punish D．encourage 29．A．approved B．anticipated C．agreed D．appealed 30．A．regardless of B．in spite of C．apart from D．in terms of 31．A．launching B．maintaining C．motivating D．initiating 32．A．requests B．barriers C．challenges D．Perspectives 续写：(因工作疏忽了身边小猫的健康---最终因....领悟到...续写线索：看兽医——得知噩耗——哭泣——拥抱——道歉——离去——回忆——决心——感悟） I immediately took him to the vet. （___________and_________, 我等着当兽医...这只小猫？） 在漫长的等待后（After what felt like a century,兽医走向我，带着...的表情，说....” 听到....., 我似乎被扔进一片黑暗，绝望和无助吞噬了我。我抱紧Little Bit,内心感到无比..... 为什么她需要我的时候我不在身边？我泪如泉涌。兽医(让我和她单独呆会）。我不停在轻声说抱歉, Tand I 希望她可以理解她对我是多么重要。然而，无论怎样的努力都无法阻止她的生命的凋零。 那晚，LittleBit 安详的离开（drift away,在我心里留下了永远的空白） Little Bit’s death made me realize how much he meant to me. 在她离去的时光里，我....回忆起她陪伴我的快乐时刻， （那些回忆）总是让我快乐又悲伤 不过这种回忆也让我感激我们共度的时光，那只用笑和adventure装满我日子的小猫永远消失了， 我后悔忽视了他，Little Bit’s 的回忆一直在我心中，（作为）一种提醒to 珍惜爱与陪伴 ，教会我为关爱我的人腾出时间，也永远不要把他们的存在当理所当然。尽管她很小，她对我产生的影响是不可估量的 （immeasurable） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
