Take the case of a one­eared leopard named Pavarotti. Kasim Rafiq, a wildlife biologist at Liverpool John Moores University. “So I used to get up at the crack of dawn, follow his tracks and try and find him. So one day, I went out, and I was looking for him. And his tracks took me off road through this woodland area ... and ...” Before he knew it, the wheel of his Land Rover was stuck inP1 a deep hole. He wasted several hours getting it out. And then, on the way back to camp, he came acrossP2 some local tour guides and their safari (观赏野兽的旅行) guests, who'd had way better luck spottingW2 Pavarotti. “Basically, they laughed and they talked to me that they'd seen him that morning.” Rafiq then realized that tourist wildlife sightings might be an untapped source of information about wild animals. So he and his team worked with a safari lodge in Botswana to analyze 25，000 tourist photographs of wildlife. They compared those data to the estimates they made with traditional wildlife biology methods. It turned out that the estimates from tourists' photos were just as good as those gleaned (四处搜集) from traditional methods. And the tourists were actually the only ones to see elusive (难以捉摸的) leopards—the researchers would have missed the cats without the citizen science data. The results are in the journal Current Biology. The idea is not to put wildlife researchers out of a job. “The reality is there are so many interesting things we still have to find out about these large carnivores (食肉动物) and so many conservation (保护) projects that need to be carried out that we don't have the time or resources to do them all.” And tourist photos might help make sure that all the local carnivores are spotted. Thanks for listening for Scientific American 60－Second Science. I'm Christopher Intagliata. 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。生物学家发现，游客拍摄的野生动物照片可能是关于野生动物的一个尚未开发的信息来源。 1．What happened to Rafiq when he tracked Pavarotti? A．He was lost in the woods. B．He was trapped in a deep hole. C．He found Pavarotti with tourists' help. D．He met Pavarotti on the way back to camp. 答案：B　细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Before he knew it, the wheel of his Land Rover was stuck in a deep hole.”可知，当Rafiq(拉菲克)追踪Pavarotti(帕瓦罗蒂)时，他被困在一个深坑里。故选B。 2．Why can biologists track animals from tourists' photographs? A．The photos are sources of information about wildlife. B．The photos are mirrors of the wildlife researchers' life. C．The photos taken by tourists are of high quality. D．The photos taken by tourists are especially beautiful. 答案：A　细节理解题。根据第四段“Rafiq then realized that tourist wildlife sightings might be an untapped source of information about wild animals.(拉菲克随后意识到，野生动物观光可能是一个尚未开发的野生动物信息来源。)”可知，生物学家根据游客拍的照片追踪野生动物是因为这些照片是关于野生动物的信息来源。故选A。 3．What can we infer from Paragraph 6? A．The researchers have missed the data of cats. B．The information from tourists' photos was equally good. C．The value of tourist photos hasn't been proven. D．Only the traditional methods can track wildlife. 答案：B　推理判断题。根据第六段第一句“It turned out that the estimates from tourists' photos were just as good as those gleaned (四处搜集) from traditional methods.(结果证明，从游客照片中得出的估计结果与从传统方法中得出的结果一样好。)”可推知，从游客照片中得到的信息同样很好。故选B。 4．Where can we find the article? A．On TV. B．In a magazine. C．On a radio. D．In a book. 答案：C　推理判断题。根据最后一段“Thanks for listening for Scientific American 60­Second Science.

However, you need make sure that they can all live indoors and won't give our any harmful things. __1__ We've tried to pick out the most important ones to show you just how great they are for students and their learning! 1．Plants freshen the air. __2__ And they also take in CO2 and give out O2, which can help improve brain productivity. You can put just a few big leafy plants in the corner. You can even increase or decrease the humidity (湿气) in your classroom! This can help children with breathing problems, and improve air quality. 2．Plants improve students' mental (精神的) health. It's no secret that plants can add a touch of freshness and liveliness to any boring place! __3__ Studies have also shown that classrooms that contain plants can reduce students' anxiety, sickness and absence. All this comes from a little plant. 3．__4__ Having plants to study first hand is the best way to teach students about living things and plant biology. Using living plants can help students study plant growth over time. As well as biology, plants can also be used in lessons such as mathematics and art as a great way to draw students in. 4．Plants raise environmental consciousness (意识). We think this is one of the best reasons to have plants in classrooms! When students are able to see the effort and care needed to grow plants, they develop a sense of ownership for these living beings. Developing knowledge of how important nature is can help them become connected to their environment outside of the classroom. __5__ A．Plants encourage responsibility. B．Plants make great lesson subjects. C．This, in turn, will help develop a love for the environment. D．There are many benefits of growing plants in the classroom. E．It helps both students and teachers feel happier in the classroom. F．It's easy for students to walk by plants in the street without noticing them. G．Plants help remove pollution from the air by taking them into their roots and leaves. 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍在教室里种植植物的四个好处。 1．D　根据后文“We've tried to pick out the most important ones to show you just how great they are for students and their learning！(我们试着挑选出最重要的一些，向你展示它们对学生和他们的学习有多么棒！)”可知，此处是讲在教室里种植物有很多好处，D项(在教室里种植物有很多好处。)衔接后文。故选D。 2．G　根据前文“Plants freshen the air.(植物使空气清新。)”可知，此处说明植物可以净化空气，G项(植物通过把污染物带到根部和叶子中来帮助清除空气中的污染物。)承接前文。故选G。 3．E　根据前文“Plants improve students' mental (精神的) health.

We had not seen rain in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The steams were long gone back into the earth. If we didn't see some rain soon we would lose everything. It was on this day that I learned the true lesson of sharing and witnessed the best miracle I have ever seen in my life. I was in the kitchen making lunch for the family when I saw my six­year­old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. I could only see his back. He wasn't walking with his usual steps. He was obviously walking with great effort, trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the woods, he came running out again, toward the house. I went back to make sandwiches, thinking that whatever he had been doing was completed. Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking carefully to the woods, then running back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey. He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked, being very careful not to spill the water he held in them. I stepped close as he went into the woods. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he never gave in. He might have a much greater purpose, I thought. As I came closer, I saw the most amazing sight. Several large deer stood in front of him. Billy walked right up to them, at the sight of which I almost screamed for him to get away. A huge buck was dangerously close. But the buck neither threatened him nor even moved as Billy knelt down. And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground, obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion, lifting its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my boy's hands. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 When the water was gone, Billy jumped up to run back to the house.

I followed him back to the tap (水龙头). Billy turned it on and began to cup both hands. He knelt down, letting the drip slowly fill up his “cup”. And now I knew what was going on. Obviously, he was afraid of being scolded for wasting water, so he avoided asking me for help. When he stood up and turned back, he noticed me walking toward him. His eyes were filled with tears and fear. “Mom, I'm not wasting”． This time I joined him, with a small bottle of water from the kitchen. I let him tend to the baby deer alone while I just helped fetch the water. It was no easy job. Moving back and forth between the house and woods I gasped for breath before long and sweated all over. As beads of sweat began to hit the ground, they were suddenly joined by other drops ... and more drops ... and more. I looked up at the sky. It was as if God, himself, was weeping with pride. I can't believe it was raining. 13 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
