Ⅳ.阅读理解
(2024·广州高二检测)On Sunday,Ecuador held a special vote on whether oil drilling(钻探) should be allowed in Yasuni National Park.The vote was part of a larger election to choose the country's next president.Nearly 60% of Ecuadorian voters chose to protect the park.
In 2007,to protect the area,Rafael Correa — Ecuador's president at the time — offered to leave the oil in the ground.In exchange,he wanted the rest of the world to pay Ecuador $3.6 billion.Though Mr.Correa worked hard to find support for his idea,no group offered to pay the money.
In 2016,Ecuador's state oil company,Petroecuador,began drilling in Yasuni.The company is drilling in a fairly small area known as Block 43.Block 43 makes up far less than 1% of the park,but it produces about 55,000 barrels of oil every day.
But the drilling has upset many people in Ecuador.Yasunidos is a group which works to protect the park.For over ten years,Yasunidos has worked to allow Ecuador's people a chance to vote on oil drilling in Yasuni.In May,Yasunidos won a court case that allowed them to put the Yasuni drilling up for a vote.
On Sunday,voters were asked if they supported oil drilling in the park or were against it.When the votes were counted,about 59% of the voters chose to stop drilling in Yasuni.Just 41% supported it.
Yasunidos called the vote “a historic success for Ecuador and for the planet”! But the result is a disappointment for Ecuador's president,Guillermo Lasso.He believes the oil money is extremely important for the country.Selling oil from Yasuni brings in about $1.2 billion a year.
The government won't be able to ignore or change the results of the vote,and will now have about a year and a half to end the drilling.Petroecuador says it will cost about $500 million to stop drilling and clean up the operation.
1.What was Rafael Correa's original plan?
A.Drilling oil in Yasuni.
B.Selling oil to the world.
C.Getting support from the president.
D.Getting paid for not drilling oil.
2.What is Yasunidos' attitude towards drilling in Yasuni National Park?

C.Opposed. D.Supportive.
3.What will be the result of stopping drilling?
A.The environment will get destroyed.
B.The country will suffer economic loss.

【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了厄瓜多尔就是否允许在亚苏尼国家公园进行石油钻探举行了一次特别投票活动。
1.D [解析]细节理解题。根据第二段可知,2007年,为了保护该地区,时任厄瓜多尔总统的Rafael Correa提出将石油留在地下。作为交换,他希望世界其他国家向厄瓜多尔支付36亿美元。由此可知,Rafael Correa原本的计划是通过不开采石油而得到其他国家的报酬。故选D。
2.C [解析]推理判断题。根据第四段可知,钻探活动让厄瓜多尔的许多人感到不安。Yasunidos是一个致力于保护公园的组织。十多年来,Yasunidos一直致力于让厄瓜多尔人有机会就亚苏尼的石油钻探进行投票。由此可知,该组织对在国家公园内开采石油的做法持反对意见。故选C。
3.B [解析]细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“He believes the oil money is extremely important for the country.Selling oil from Yasuni brings in about $1.2 billion a year.(他认为,石油收入对这个国家极为重要。从亚苏尼出售石油每年能带来大约12亿美元的收入。)”和最后一段中的“Petroecuador says it will cost about $500 million to stop drilling and clean up the operation.(厄瓜多尔国家石油公司表示,停止钻探和清理作业将花费大约5亿美元。)”可知,出售石油可以带来可观的收入,停止钻探进行清理需投入很大的费用,因此停止石油钻探会给国家带来经济损失。故选B。
4.B [解析]标题概括题。文章报道了厄瓜多尔就亚苏尼的石油钻探进行的投票活动,具体介绍了该事件的来龙去脉和投票结果及其影响。B项“厄瓜多尔投票决定停止在亚苏尼国家公园钻探”可以概括本文大意,适合作为标题。故选B。
