课时作业 巩固提升
Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共20分)
A
(2024·山东济南高三期末)In the animal world, speed is king.Fast animals have a leg up in outrunning other animals, which puts them high on the food chain.It would seem that all animals would go for speed, but then there’s the sloth (树懒).While a lion can go from 0 to 60 miles an hour in only five seconds, it takes a sloth all day to cover no more than 50 meters.
Sloths live entirely in trees on a diet of leaves.And for this, they are extremely rare.While most of the land world is covered by trees, there are very few vertebrates (脊椎动物) that call the tree home.The aim of a 2016 study, says Jonathan Pauli, professor of forest and wildlife ecology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, was to help uncover why sloths are indeed so unique.“Among vertebrates, this is the rarest of lifestyles,” says Pauli.“When you picture animals that live off plant leaves, they are almost all big—things like deer.What’s super interesting about sloths is that they can’t be big.”
For their research, Pauli and his Wisconsin team studied wild sloths at a field site.When the researchers measured the energy use of sloths, they found a wildly low burning of as little as 110 calories of energy a day.And for this, they ____________:it is the lowest measured energetic output for any mammal (哺乳动物).
take the cake
“The measurement was intended to find out what it cost sloths to live over a day,”says Pauli, who adds that a diet of little but leaves lacks nutritional value and that the animal’s small size doesn’t allow for overeating—so sloths need to find ways to make the most of their diets, which means using tiny amounts of energy, dramatic control of body temperature and living at an extremely slow pace.
Their reward? A wonderfully widespread ecological system to call their own, one slow inch at a time.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。在速度为王的动物界,似乎所有的动物都在追求速度,但树懒除外,它拥有独特的生活方式。Pauli和他的团队对此进行了研究。

1.Why is a lion mentioned in paragraph 1?( )
A.To admire lions’ speed.
B.To state sloths’ weakness.
C.To confirm lions’ lead position.
D.To highlight sloths’ uniqueness.
D
解析:推理判断题。 第一段提到狮子主要是在速度方面和树懒进行对比。再根据第二段中的“The aim of a 2016 study...was to help uncover why sloths are indeed so unique.”可知,文章主要揭示树懒的独特性,所以第一段提到狮子是为了用明显的对比引出文章主题,即树懒的独特性,故选D项。

2.What is the 2016 study mainly about?( )
A.The lifestyle of sloths. B.The diet of vertebrates.
C.The species of rare animals. D.The energy use of creatures.
A
解析:细节理解题。 根据第二段中的“The aim of a 2016 study...was to help uncover why sloths are indeed so unique.”可知,2016年的研究的目的是揭示树懒的独特性;再根据第二段中的“Among vertebrates, this is the rarest of lifestyles”可知,A项“树懒的生活方式”正确。

3.What does the underlined part “take the cake” in paragraph 3 probably mean?( )
A.Break down.
B.Keep on.
C.Stand out.
D.Grow up.
C
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线短语前的“When the researchers...they found a wildly low burning of as little as 110 calories of energy a day.”和画线短语后的“it is the lowest measured energetic output for any mammal”可知,当研究人员测量树懒的能量消耗时,他们发现树懒每天消耗的能量极低,只有110卡路里,这是所有哺乳动物测得的最低能量输出。所以这一特点使得树懒很显眼。故画线短语与C项“突出,显眼,引人注目”的意思最为接近。

4.What can be inferred about sloths from Pauli’s words?( )
A.Their slow pace is a balanced choice.
B.They are faced with possible extinction.
C.Their slow pace decides a tiny appetite.
D.They suffer a lot against natural enemies.
A
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中的“a diet of little but leaves...living at an extremely slow pace”可知,树懒几乎只吃树叶的饮食缺乏营养价值,而且树懒的体型小,也不能吃得过多,所以树懒需要找到充分利用饮食的方法,这意味着使用少量的能量,极大地控制体温,并以非常缓慢的速度生活,故选A项。
B
(2024·山东青岛调研检测)Tree-planting,intended to help draw down carbon dioxide from the atmosphere,has become a synonym (同义词) for climate action.In our constant focus on trees,we’ve developed a fixed understanding:Trees absorb carbon dioxide,end of story.The reality is that trees don’t grow well alone.They exist within complex communities,helped along by each other as well as the animals they coexist with.The woodland isn’t nature’s only carbon sink:Grasslands and oceans also help reduce the carbon level and rely on a healthy amount of biodiversity.
That’s what the paper,published in Nature,wants to get across.Co-author Oswald J.Schmitz,a professor of ecology at Yale University,said trees might not be able to do their carbon-uptake job efficiently without the right animals in their ecosystem.That’s because animals _________the carbon cycle through their behavior and roles in the ecosystem.He added that the very presence of wild animals could cause feedback effects that change the ecosystem’s capacity to absorb,release,or transport carbon.
animate
In Serengeti,for instance,the sharp decline in wildebeest (角马) populations during the mid-20th century allowed grass to grow wildly,eventually promoting wildfires that consumed 80 percent of the ecosystem annually and led to a net release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.When disease management and bans on illegal hunting helped animal populations recover,a greater share of the carbon stored in plants was consumed by wildebeest and released as waste,keeping it in the system and restoring the grassland as a carbon sink.
Researchers rarely consider wildlife conservation as a strategy to increase an ecosystem’s carbon storage capacity,said Schmitz.“They think that animals either aren’t important enough or that you can’t take up carbon and conserve animals at the same time,” he said.“Our message is that you can and should.It can be a win-win situation for both biodiversity conservation and carbon uptake.” We need a full picture—with both trees and animals—to explore nature’s full potential.

5.What can we learn from the first paragraph?( )
A.Actions are needed to reduce carbon dioxide.
B.Trees are a quick solution to the climate crisis.
C.People are not thinking through trees properly.
D.Grasslands and oceans help maintain biodiversity.
C
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段第二、三句可知,人们对树木的固定理解和事实并不一致。即人们对树木的看法不正确。故选C。

6.What does the underlined word “animate” in paragraph 2 mean?( )
A.Activate. B.Restart. C.Disturb. D.Break.
A
解析:词义猜测题。根据第二段第二句并结合画线词所在句可知,树木所在的生态系统中没有动物时,树木不能进行碳吸收工作;但是当有动物时,树木就可以有效地完成碳吸收工作。这说明动物能激活树木完成碳吸收工作。那么,画线词应意为“激活”。故选A。
7.What does the author want to say by mentioning wildebeest?( )
A.The conservation of animals is still a serious issue.
B.Animals can swing the ecosystem’s capacity to store carbon.
C.Human impacts bring about the reduction in wildlife populations.
D.The increase in animal species causes a decrease in carbon uptake.

解析:推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句可知,野生动物能改变生态系统吸收、释放和运输碳的能力。再结合第三段可知,在塞伦盖蒂,角马的数量在20世纪中期急剧下降,使得草疯狂生长,最终引发了野火,每年消耗80%的生态系统,并导致二氧化碳净释放到大气中。但是当动物种群恢复时,储存在植物中的大部分碳被角马消耗并作为废物释放出来,使其留在生态系统中,并恢复草原作为碳汇的作用。由此可推知,文章提及角马是为了说明野生动物的存在可以改变生态系统储存碳的能力。故选B。
8.Which of the following is the best title for the text?( )
A.Animals Adjust Themselves to Climate Change
B.Woodland Isn’t the Only Carbon Sink on the Earth
C.The Serengeti Ecosystem Needs Urgent Improvement
D.Trees May Fail to Fulfil Their Duties Without Animals

解析:标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章结合实例讲述了树木在生态系统中与动物的相互作用,从而说明:没有动物的话,树木可能无法履行自己的职责。故选D。

长难句
分析 分析:本句中what it...a day是宾语从句,作find out的宾语;who adds...allow for overeating是who引导的非限制性定语从句,修饰Pauli,该定语从句中又含有两个that引导的宾语从句;which means...是which引导的非限制性定语从句。
译文:“测量的目的是找出树懒一天的能量消耗,”泡利说。他补充说,几乎只吃树叶的饮食缺乏营养价值,而且这种动物的小体型不允许它吃得过多——所以树懒需要找到方法来充分利用它们的饮食,这意味着使用少量的能量,极大地控制体温,并以极慢的速度生活。
