When we began our reporting in 2017-Sharon,writing;I,taking photos;and our son,NickRuggia,filming-more tigers likely lived in cages in the US than remained in the wild.The number ranged from 5,000 to 10,000,but without strict government oversight,no one knew for sure. Roadside zoos that allowed tourists to take pictures of young tigers were the main cause of what's been called a US tiger crisis().Caged cats often ended up in the illegal wildlife trade.Young tigers,parted from their mothers at birth,were fed poorly and touched by hundreds of people.When they grew too big and dangerous to pet at around 12 weeks,young tigers were put on show,or simply disappeared. While we recorded the unpleasant part of this industry,we also wanted to show the good life these impressive animals could have.With two weeks left before my deadline,I headed to the Wild Animal Sanctuary near Denver,where well-cared cats walked freely in their habitat. There I met Clay,Daniel,and Enzo,three of 39 tigers rescued from an animal park in Oklahoma.These nearly grown cats raced beside our car,which I'd seen only in the wild.It was a hot July day and soon two of the cats jumped into a pool to cool off.The third rested beside them on the ground.I crossed the road to take a picture of them.Then quietly,I came up close,trying not to disturb()them.I had the shot. 1.Why did the author start her reporting? A.To dig out the dark truth of caged tigers. B.To explore the amazing land in the country. C.To tell people that baby tigers are harmless. D.To share the happy moment during the trip. 2.What is the main cause of the US tiger crisis according to the text? A.Forest fires. B.Climate change. C.Roadside zoos. D.Water pollution. 3.What can we learn about these young tigers from Paragraph 3? A.They prefer to stay indoors. B.They are badly treated. C.They get used to the changes D.They are traded legally 高一学科素养周测评（九）英语第1页（共4页） 衡水真 4.What is the author's purpose in mentioning the Wild Animal Sanctuary? 班级 A.To praise her family for their effort. B.To explain what the animals suffered. C.To introduce a special kind of tigers. D.To show some tigers lead an easy life. B 姓名 Each year,the discovery of new shark species underlines how little we know about ocean biodiversity.In a recent report conducted by Sibert and Rubin,they reported an ------------- unexpected finding:a large-scale extinction (of sharks in the pelagic ocean,the 得分 largest ecosystem on Earth,about 19 million years ago.Their discovery suggests that some extinctions in the open sea of the past may have been mysterious. The study of Sibert and Rubin takes advantage of a system by using tiny,hard bits of shark skin and bony fish teeth that naturally fall from their bodies to the seafloor.These extremely small fossils provide a rich record of ancient oceanic sharks and their abundance for thousands of years.By studying fossils from many regions,the diversity patterns can give major insights into evolution()of the open sea that would be otherwise unknown. Sibert and Rubin quantified()a past extinction of sharks,reporting a 90% decline in number and >70%drop in diversity.They found that nearer-shore sharks appear to survive,but migratory ones go extinct.The finding of this study is that sharks had undergone a widespread extinction that reorganized their communities from 16 million to 20 million years ago. Sibert and Rubin narrowed the disappearance of sharks to a window of time under 100,000 years around 19 million years ago,but the causes of this event remain unclear. Because this time period does not stand out as a period of major climatic change,the authors do not attribute()environmental factors as an extinction driver.As for other causes,the loss of shark diversity is directly linked to overfishing. The loss of sharks from the oceans has profound,complex,and unavoidable ecological consequences because their presence reflects the stability of marine ecosystems. Yet,one-quarter of the global diversity of sharks is currently threatened with extinction. Despite recent improvements in conservation actions,shark communities never recovered from a mysterious extinction event 19 million years ago;the ecological fate of what remains is now in our hands. 5.What did Sibert and Rubin find? A.The negative impact of the extinction of sharks. B.The mysterious reasons behind the disappearance of sharks. C.The most recent advances in the study of the largest ecosystem. D.The large-scale decline in the number of sharks about 19 million years ago. 6.How did Sibert and Rubin conduct their study? A.By quantifying the movement of near-shore sharks. B.By collecting and analyzing shark fossils worldwide. C.By keeping track of ancient oceanic sharks and their activities. D.By using a system to study the naturally fallen bits from sharks. 题密卷 高一学科素养周测评（九）英语第2页（共4页） 1 7.According to the passage,which of the following statement is true? A.The number of sharks has recovered to its previous level. B.Overfishing is partly to blame for the loss of shark diversity. C.Scientist have figured out the exact causes of sharks'extinction. D.Sharks had undergone a widespread extinction due to the climate change. 8.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Sharks:The Marine Masters B.Sharks:The Stories Behind Them C.Sharks:Killers or Misunderstood? D.Sharks:The Mysterious Extinction 第二节（共5小题；每小题6分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项 为多余选项。 Growing plants is often seen as a very "green"thing to do,but like many products, they take a huge amount of energy to produce.9 For example,they use geothermal (energy to heat greenhouses and solar power to supply electricity and lighting. While domestic()growing doesn't involve the same carbon footprint as commercial growing,it's important to consider what we can all do to minimize our own impact while still enjoying growing plants. Over-consumption of plants is a big problem.It's so easy to get overexcited when you see all these incredible plants,and you can end up carrying home huge numbers of them. 10 The more plants you have,the more limited your time and resources become,and plants can suffer.This leads to another issue-many people may end up throwing away their plants which don't look perfect or stop flowering,in a similar way to the world of fast fashion.11 If you are ready and able to increase your collection,propagate()from your own plants rather than buying more,and share plants with others.12 Meanwhile,we can build a community of like-minded,passionate plant people. Recycling takes a huge amount of input,which can end up more damaging to the environment,so instead of buying something of lower quality that needs replacing every year,buy fewer things of a higher quality.13 And they can be passed down the generations. A.But large collections call for an enormous amount of work. B.Many commercial growers continue to market their produce. C.This removes the need to buy plants and encourages a sharing culture. D.These will last many years and be more cost-effective in the long term. E.Many large-scale growers have used technology to minimize their impact on the environment. F.Throwing them away will greatly reduce your gardening footprint on the environment. G.So it's important to assess your collection and buy plants you have time to look after. 1 高一学科素养周测评（九）英语第3页（共4页） 衡水真 第二部分语言运用（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳 选项。 My father was raised in a poor family without a father.The family of five struggled hard to 14 which caused my father to be extremely 15 with his money.
