Ⅴ.阅读理解
In a dark room, it may seem there will be little to detect in darkness. However, a bird in the room will be able to pick up on the magnetic field(磁场)of the earth and will know which direction to fly if it is time to migrate(迁徙). A snake will detect the presence of humans in the room by sensing their radiation. Each of these creatures could all be sharing exactly the same physical space and have a totally different experience of that space.

[话题语篇提升]
Each animal has access to its own sensory environment—called an “umwelt”. “Umwelt” was popularised by a German biologist named Jakob von Uexküll. The word comes from the German for “environment”, but Jakob von Uexküll wasn’t using it to mean the physical environment. He meant the sensory environment, the unique set of smells, sights, sounds and textures that each animal has access to.
Humans can’t sense the faint electric fields that sharks and ducks can, or the magnetic fields that robins and sea turtles detect. Our ears can’t hear the call of rodents and hummingbirds, and our eyes can’t see the light that birds and bees can sense. Our noses can’t detect various odours(气味)that dogs would be able to smell.
So imagining the world as animals perceive it opens up a new appreciation for the everyday wonders of nature. If we think of nature as something remote and distant, and accessible only to someone who can go to a national park, we lose the motivation to save and protect it.
Instead, we can go on an adventure just by thinking about the sensory world of the bird that sits on the house opposite us. Then nature would feel like something close. In that case, people will be more motivated to try and protect it. Protecting nature isn’t just about saving whales or pandas, but about protecting things that are close to us.
( )1.What does the author intend to show by using the example of a dark room?
A.Automatic adjustments to the darkness.
B.Important functions of sense organs.
C.Natural strengths of animals and humans.
D.Diverse perceptions of the same environment.
D
( )2.What does the underlined word “umwelt” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.The natural world.
B.The biological science.
C.The surroundings that animals detect.
D.The environment that animals live in.
C
( )3.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.Limitations of human senses.
B.Wonders of living creatures.
C.The lack of animal knowledge.
D.The comparison of organs.
A
( )4.What does the author suggest us do?
A.Present the national parks.
B.Care about the creatures around us.
C.Rescue endangered species.
D.Appreciate what we possess.
【语篇解读】在本文中,作者号召我们应想象动物所感知的世界,从而更好地去保护它们。
B
1.D 推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“Each of these creatures could all be sharing exactly the same physical space and have a totally different experience of that space.(这些生物中的每一种都可能共享完全相同的物理空间,并对该空间有完全不同的体验。)”可知,文章通过举例想说明动物对同一环境的不同感知。故选D。
2.C 词义猜测题。根据画线词的上文“Each animal has access to its own sensory environment (每种动物都有自己的感官环境)”和画线词的下文“The word comes from the German for ’environment’, but Jakob von Uexküll wasn’t using it to mean the physical environment. He meant the sensory environment, the unique set of smells, sights, sounds and textures that each animal has access to.(这个词来自德语,意思是’环境’,但Jakob von Uexküll并没有用它来指代物理环境。他指的是感官环境,即每只动物都能接触到的独特的气味、视觉、声音和口感。)”可知,画线词umwelt指“动物探测到的周围环境”。故选C。
3.A 主旨大意题。根据第三段内容可知,人类无法感知鲨鱼和鸭子所能感知的微弱电场,也无法感知知更鸟和海龟所能探测到的磁场。我们的耳朵听不到啮齿动物和蜂鸟的叫声,我们的眼睛也看不到鸟类和蜜蜂能感觉到的光线。我们的鼻子检测不到狗能闻到的各种气味。由此可知,本段主要讲人类感官的局限性。故选A。
4.B 推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知,相反,我们可以通过想象坐在我们对面房子上的鸟的感官世界来进行冒险。那么自然就会感觉很亲近。在这种情况下,人们会更有动力去尝试和保护它。保护自然不仅仅是拯救鲸鱼或熊猫,而是保护我们身边的东西。由此可知,作者建议我们应关心我们周围的生物。故选B。

It is clear that it is important to get outside! 2._____But even if you live in an urban area, spend time in your yard or find a park or a green space with trees and bushes. Go outside during your lunch hour if you can to get a “breath of fresh air” and give your mind a break. 3._____
We all know the long list of physical, mental, and emotional benefits of exercise. Exercise improves attention in the young and cognitive functioning in the old. It reduces stress and acts as an antidepressant.4._____ But much as we know all these benefits, we can’t always motivate ourselves to exercise regularly. This is where nature can help.

【语篇解读】文章主要讲述环境对我们的身心健康有很多好处,身处大自然中可以增加我们的幸福感。
1.E 根据上文“大自然减少我们的愤怒、恐惧和沮丧,增加了我们的积极情绪和心理健康。在大自然中的时间也带我们走出自我和狭隘的忧虑,将我们与一个更大的世界联系起来,在那里我们发现了美和兴趣。”可知, 本段主要讲述大自然对我们心理和情绪的影响,空处为段尾句,对本段有总结和归纳的作用。E项“因此,环境与我们的整体健康息息相关。”符合语境。故选E。
2.A 根据下文“但是,即使你住在市区,你也要花点时间在你的院子里,或找到一个公园或有乔木和灌木的绿地。”可知,空处应指与城市对应的地方,那就是乡村。A项“如果你能去乡村或湖边,那就太好了。”符合语境。故选A。
3.F 空处为段尾句,应承接上文。根据上文“如果可以的话,在午餐时间可以到外面去’呼吸一下新鲜空气’,让你的大脑休息一下。” 可知,午餐时间可以到大自然中呼吸新鲜空气,让大脑休息一下。F项“你应该为下午的脑力工作找到更多的能量。”承接上文,符合语境。故选F。
4.B 上文“我们都知道锻炼对身体、心理和情感有很多好处。锻炼可以提高年轻人的注意力和老年人的认知能力。它可以减轻压力,起到抗抑郁的作用。”提到锻炼对精神方面的好处,下文提到“all these benefits”,所以空处仍为锻炼的好处。B项“如果我们想避免增重,锻炼也是关键。”符合语境。故选B。
5.G 空处位于段首,为本段主旨句。下文“一系列的研究表明,与城市环境相反,在森林中散步,降低血压和应激激素远远超过散步的效果。”提到室外锻炼比在室内锻炼要好。G项“此外,户外运动比室内运动更能减轻压力。”能够概括本段大意,符合语境。故选G。
