The sea ice loss and the Arctic melting (融化) ice caused by climate change have increased much in the last ten years. So they have pushed down the number of polar bears and seals while polar bears depend on sea ice for hunting seals. According to the data from the WMO, temperatures on the Antarctica (南极洲) just hit 18.3℃, which is higher than the record of 17.5℃ in March, 2015. Moreover, temperatures in this area have increased by 3℃ over the last 50 years. Although such temperatures might be considered pleasant for a picnic or a hiking trip, this is the Antarctica we are talking about. It is home to the most inhospitable environment on the planet because it is supposed to be an extremely cold place. In fact, the average temperature of the continent’s central area is -57℃. Besides, many places are experiencing the extreme weather this summer. Australia is undergoing its worst drought (干旱) since the 1930s, leaving bush fire burning so long and causing many deaths. Meanwhile in Europe, crops in the northwest are suffering the driest weather in the past 80 years. Recently West Texas in America has also gone through its worst drought in more than 70 years, while floods have hit Eastern and Southern China. “Climate change is bad for us human beings, which causes direct health problems. I’m afraid there will be more common events like the one that 30,000 to 50,000 persons died in Europe in 2003 due to the heat wave there,” Professor Schwartz said. “It will also cause more air pollution, diseases and lack of clean water and so on.” 21．What doesn’t bring down the number of polar bears according to this passage?

So they have pushed down the number of polar bears and seals while polar bears depend on sea ice for hunting seals. (在过去十年里，气候变化导致的海冰减少和北极冰层融化现象显著加剧。因此，北极熊和海豹的数量减少了，而北极熊依赖海冰捕猎海豹。)”可知，造成北极熊数量减少的原因是气候变化、海冰消失和北极冰川融化，而没有提到狩猎。故选A。 22．细节理解题。根据第四段““Climate change is bad for us human beings, which causes direct health problems. I’m afraid there will be more common events like the one that 30,000 to 50,000 persons died in Europe in 2003 due to the heat wave there,” Professor Schwartz said. “It will also cause more air pollution, diseases and lack of clean water and so on.” (施瓦茨教授说：“气候变化对我们人类有害，它会直接导致健康问题。恐怕会有更多类似2003年欧洲因热浪导致3万至5万人死亡的常见事件发生。它还会导致更多的空气污染、疾病和清洁水短缺等问题。”)”可知，气候变化将导致空气污染和疾病。故选C。 23．词句猜测题。根据第二段“In fact, the average temperature of the continent’s central area is -57℃. (事实上，该大陆中心地区的平均气温为零下57摄氏度。)”可知，该大陆中心地区的平均气温为零下57摄氏度，非常寒冷，是不适合居住的。由此可知，inhospitable意为“不适合居住的”。故选D。 24． 细节理解题。根据第三段“Recently West Texas in America has also gone through its worst drought in more than 70 years, while floods have hit Eastern and Southern China. (最近美国西得克萨斯经历了70多年来最严重的干旱，而洪水袭击了中国东部和南部地区。)”可知，中国今年遭遇的是洪水而不是干旱。故选D。 25．主旨大意题。通读全文以及第一段“Terrible weather events are harming the planet, and experts warn of even greater results to come. The sea ice loss and the Arctic melting ice caused by climate change have increased much in the last ten years. So they have pushed down the number of polar bears and seals while polar bears depend on sea ice for hunting seals. (可怕的天气事件正在危害地球，专家警告说未来可能会出现更严重的后果。由于气候变化导致的海冰减少和北极冰川融化在过去十年中大大加剧。因此，北极熊和海豹的数量下降了，而北极熊是依靠海冰来捕猎海豹的。)”可知，文章主要介绍了气候变化导致的各种极端天气事件及其对人类和地球的影响。故选C。 B 根据所读内容在短文后表格中的空格处填入一个恰当的词，每空一词。 Have you ever wondered how an animal is feeling?

Result ●69% of the volunteers could 29 tell how the chickens were feeling. 【答案】26．Understanding/Recognition 27．trained 28．hungry 29．correctly 【导语】文章主要讲述了科学家通过研究发现人类可以通过鸡叫声判断鸡的情绪状态。 26．根据第一段“Scientists say humans can tell if chickens are happy or sad by listening to their calls. (科学家说，人类可以通过听鸡的叫声来判断它们是否快乐或悲伤。)”、第二段“They made recordings by training a group of chickens to recognize different situations. (他们通过训练一群鸡识别不同的情况来录音。)”以及“To find out how well humans understand chickens, scientists at the University of Queensland in Australia did a study. (为了弄清楚人类对鸡的了解程度，澳大利亚昆士兰大学的科学家们做了一项研究。)”可知，科学家研究人类对鸡叫的理解和识别，所以此处应填名词understanding或recognition，标题中的实词要大写。故填Understanding/Recognition。 27．根据第二段“They made recordings by training a group of chickens to recognize different situations.
