Book 1 Unit 5 Into the Wild词汇语境应用-Yana 做题要求：请务必写出每个粗体词的意思再答题！ Article 1: The Grand Canyon Expedition Our team set up camp on a narrow platform near the Grand Canyon's edge（边缘） as frost covered our sheets each morning. The steep valley walls revealed layers of mineral deposits（沉淀） from ancient dynasty periods. Local experts warned that the shallow soil in this region could harm delicate organisms, so we took care to prevent damage. The Colorado River carved this breathtaking structure over millions of years, creating thunderous waterfalls and winding channels. At night in our observatory, we studied how climate changes affected the basin's agriculture. "The completion of our research could benefit future consumers of this land," noted our guide. Questions: 1.Why did the team need to be careful about the shallow soil? a) It contained valuable minerals b) It helped prevent erosion c) It was perfect for growing crops d) It could easily harm delicate organisms 2.What created the Grand Canyon's structure? a) Ancient dynasty builders b) The Colorado River over time c) Recent climate changes d) Agricultural activities 3.Where did the team conduct nighttime studies? a) In a tunnel b)At an observatory c) On a terrace d) By a waterfall 4.What was the main potential benefit of their research? a) Helping future land management b)Finding new consumer products c) Discovering ancient dynasty artifacts d) Creating better agricultural tools Article 2: Rooftop Garden Revolution In urban areas with limited space, many consumers are replacing concrete rooftops with vibrant gardens. My neighbor, a gardening expert with green fingers, transformed her terrace into a pleasant oasis（绿洲） of sunflowers and herbs. "The key is choosing plants that suit your climate," she advised while pruning（修剪） a thistle's branches. This system provides multiple benefits: reducing vapour heat, creating habitats for living organisms, and yielding flavorful crops. The design focuses on harmony between nature and urban materials. As cities publish more green initiatives, rooftop agriculture becomes a priority for sustainable living. Questions: 1.What does "green fingers" imply about the neighbor? a) She works with paint b) She's an excellent gardener c) She wears green gloves d) She studies plant minerals 2.Why are rooftop gardens beneficial for cities? a) They prevent all insect activity b) They create channels for water c) They reduce heat and grow food d) They replace all agricultural farms 3.What determines plant selection for rooftop gardens? a)Local climate conditions b) The owner's favorite flavours c) Availability of gardening sheets d) Consumer preferences 4.How does the article describe the garden design approach? a) Focused on maximum crop yield b) Using only narrow plant varieties c) Following ancient dynasty patterns d) Creating harmony between nature and city Article 3: Desert Survival Strategies The Sahara's extreme climate challenges both humans and organisms. Nomads（游牧民） use camels to cross the desert, wrapping themselves in sheets to prevent sun harm. At night, frost forms in shallow basins, providing precious water. Ancient cultures developed clever systems: building tunnels to channel water, using mineral-rich soil for limited agriculture, and creating structures with thick materials to block heat. Their knowledge, published in ancient texts, shows how they maintained energy and food harmony in harsh conditions. Modern scientists study these designs to improve desert living. "The completion of new observatories helps us understand these regions better," explains a researcher, noting how barrier reefs of vegetation can create microclimates.（微气象） 1.How do nomads protect themselves from the sun? a) By wearing special sheets b) Using mineral creams c) Building tunnels d) Creating waterfalls 2.What surprising natural phenomenon occurs in the desert at night? a) Thunder storms b) Camel migrations c) Frost formation d) Crop growth spurts 3. What modern structure helps study desert environments? a) Terraces b) Observatories c) Channels d) Barrier reefs 4.What ancient strategy is mentioned for water management? a) Digging deep wells b)Planting thistles c) Creating artificial waterfalls d)Building water tunnels Answers: 1-d, 2-b, 3-c, 4-a Answers: 1-b, 2-c, 3-a, 4-d Answers: 1-a, 2-b, 3-c, 4-d 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
