Rainforests are amazing places full of different kinds of plants, food, birds and animals. Can you believe that a single forest in the Amazon may have more kinds of ants than the whole of Britain! And in just one small part of the rainforest, there can be about 480 different kinds of trees.
Rainforests have a smart way of staying healthy. The tall trees make a canopy (树冠层) of branches (树枝) and leaves which protect themselves, smaller plants, and the forest animals from heavy rain, great dry heat from the sun and strong winds. They really play an important role in the health of the rainforests.
The trees in the rainforests grow in an interesting way. Even though they are close to each other, their branches and leaves never touch those of another tree. Scientists think this is the trees’ way to protect themselves so that they won’t get diseases from another tree. It also makes it more difficult for insects, which eat leaves, to move from one tree to another. To live in the forest, animals must climb, jump or fly across the space between trees.
Rainforests get their name for a reason —they get a lot of rain! They can make 75% of their own rain. At least 80 inches of rain a year is normal, and in some areas, there may be as much as 430 inches of rain every year. In just two hours, rivers can rise ten to twenty feet. The humidity (湿气) of large rainforests helps to form rainclouds that may travel to other countries which are in need of rain. Rainforests are a part of nature that help support the environment and keep our planet healthy.
16.What can we learn about rainforests from the first paragraph?
A.They cover a large area. B.They have a lot of wildlife.
C.They are managed by humans D.They provide food for people.
17.What does the underlined word “They” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Tall trees. B.Smaller plants.
C.Forest animals. D.Strong winds.
18.Why do the trees’ branches and leaves never touch those of another tree?
A.To get more sunlight.
B.To protect themselves.
C.To have more growing space.
D.To make insects move easily.
19.Which of the following best describes rainforests according to the last paragraph?
A.Famous. B.Dangerous. C.Dirty. D.Important.
20.What is the purpose of the text?
A.To tell the weather in rainforests
B.To warn the danger in rainforests
C.To give an introduction of rainforests.
D.To encourage protection of rainforests.

【导语】本文介绍了南极洲的企鹅的生存现状,并呼吁人们行动起来保护它们。
36.句意:最近,科学家发现帝企鹅的数量急剧下降。分析成分可知,此空应填形容词recent对应的副词“recently(最近)”作状语修饰整个句子,句首首字母r应大写。故填Recently。
37.句意:哈雷湾是世界上第二大企鹅栖息地。根据语境可知,此空应填基数词two对应的序数词“second(第二)”表顺序,表达“第二大企鹅栖息地”的意思。故填second。
38.句意:2016年至2018年期间,哈雷湾发生了多次风暴。根据“many(许多的)”可知,此空应填可数名词storm的复数形式storms。故填storms。
39.句意:正因为如此,企鹅的家几乎完全消失了。根据语境可知,空格处表“因为、由于”,并且空格后是代词this,所以此处应用能接名词(短语)或代词的短语“because of”。故填of。
40.句意:科学家对此感到担忧。分析成分可知,此空应填形容词作表语;因为此形容词修饰的“scientists(科学家)”是人,所以此空应填worry对应的能修饰人的形容词“worried(担忧的)”。故填worried。
41.句意:哈雷湾曾经是企鹅的安全之地,但现在不是了。因为“place(地方)”是单数名词,所以其前应填不定冠词表示“一个、一处”的意思;因为“safe”是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以其前的不定冠词应用a。故填a。
42.句意:幸运的是,企鹅的另一个家变得更大了。空前的much修饰比较级,所以此空应填形容词big的比较级bigger作表语,意为“变得更大”。故填bigger。
43.句意:许多企鹅为了安全搬到了那里。根据语境可知,企鹅搬到那里是为了安全,所以此空应填动词不定式to keep作目的状语。故填to keep。
44.句意:虽然企鹅可能有更大的机会生存,但企鹅仍然面临着灭绝的危险。分析句子可知,“penguins may have greater chance to keep alive”和“penguins are still facing the danger of dying out.”是让步关系,表达“虽然企鹅可能有更大的机会生存,但企鹅仍然面临着灭绝的危险”的意思,所以此空应填although/though引导让步状语从句,句首首字母a/t应大写。故填Although/Though。
45.句意:除非采取措施,否则他们终有一天会无处可去。分析句子可知,unless引导的是条件状语从句,根据“won’t have”可知,主句用了一般将来时,那么从句应用一般现在时表将来;根据语境可知,主语“something”和谓语动词“do”是被动关系,所以此句应用一般现在时的被动语态,其构成为“be done”;主语“something”是不定代词,be动词应用is,do的过去分词为done。故填is done。
四、
46.例文:
Dear David,
How are you recently? I have got a solution to your problem with communication.
In my opinion, you should trust yourself first. Besides, you should keep yourself in a relaxing posture when you are speaking. Just smile and be gentle to everyone around you. What’s more, you’d better look into others’ eyes when you speak in order to let others know you put your heart into your communication. Last but not the least, try to speak loudly and slow down. As you speak loudly and slowly, you will look more confident and it’s easier for others to listen.
All in all, the most important thing is that you should find someone and practice speaking to others more.
Yours,
Li Hua

Rainforests are amazing places full of different kinds of plants, food, birds and animals. Can you believe that a single forest in the Amazon may have more kinds of ants than the whole of Britain! And in just one small part of the rainforest, there can be about 480 different kinds of trees.
Rainforests have a smart way of staying healthy. The tall trees make a canopy (树冠层) of branches (树枝) and leaves which protect themselves, smaller plants, and the forest animals from heavy rain, great dry heat from the sun and strong winds. They really play an important role in the health of the rainforests.
The trees in the rainforests grow in an interesting way. Even though they are close to each other, their branches and leaves never touch those of another tree. Scientists think this is the trees’ way to protect themselves so that they won’t get diseases from another tree. It also makes it more difficult for insects, which eat leaves, to move from one tree to another. To live in the forest, animals must climb, jump or fly across the space between trees.
Rainforests get their name for a reason —they get a lot of rain! They can make 75% of their own rain. At least 80 inches of rain a year is normal, and in some areas, there may be as much as 430 inches of rain every year. In just two hours, rivers can rise ten to twenty feet. The humidity (湿气) of large rainforests helps to form rainclouds that may travel to other countries which are in need of rain. Rainforests are a part of nature that help support the environment and keep our planet healthy.
16.What can we learn about rainforests from the first paragraph?
A.They cover a large area. B.They have a lot of wildlife.
C.They are managed by humans D.They provide food for people.
17.What does the underlined word “They” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Tall trees. B.Smaller plants.
C.Forest animals. D.Strong winds.
18.Why do the trees’ branches and leaves never touch those of another tree?
A.To get more sunlight.
B.To protect themselves.
C.To have more growing space.
D.To make insects move easily.
19.Which of the following best describes rainforests according to the last paragraph?
A.Famous. B.Dangerous. C.Dirty. D.Important.
20.What is the purpose of the text?
A.To tell the weather in rainforests
B.To warn the danger in rainforests
C.To give an introduction of rainforests.
D.To encourage protection of rainforests.
