But it is also home to penguins and many kinds of ocean life. The cold weather over millions or years has created a huge layer（层）of ice that covers Antarctica.（1）_______ Yet the continent （大陆） is also one of the driest parts on Earth. （2）　 　 The first human to set foot on land in Antarctica is said to be John Davis，a US seal hunter，in 1821.Tourists visit the coast of Antarctica during summer，which is from November to February in the southern hemisphere. They get to see penguins，seals，whales and a beautiful icy view. （3）　 　 They are mostly scientists and those who help them carry out their research. The National Science Foundation （NSF） is a US organization.（4）　 　 "Each year，we send more than 100 teams of scientists to our three research stations in Antarctica，" Polar Programs spokesman Peter West said.

Take Poyang Lake as an example, as an important habitat（栖息地）for the seriously endangered birds, Poyang Lake has experienced usual rises and falls in recent years. "In some years, the lake experiences floods （洪水）, while in others it experiences a shortage of rain. Both of these situations lead to less food in the birds' habitat." Qian Fawen, a leader from the National Bird Center of China told China Daily. To solve such habitat problems, China has named 1,140 places these years as important living and wintering places in wetlands（湿地）.To protect China's wetlands, a law was also made in 2022 to control human activities. According to the law, people can't overuse the wetlands. What's more, they can't pour（倒）waste water into the wetlands. Since these methods have worked well, more birds have been seen wintering in the nation's wetlands. In February, Hunan Province reported that 72 kinds of water birds had spent the past winter at Dongting Lake, and that the number of one endangered kind of birds had increased from300 in the 1980s to more than 5,000 at present. All of these cases show a better future. Part 2: Skills Challenge Task 1: Understand the Story (基础理解) 1. How many places has China named as important living and wintering places in wetlands these years? A. 1,140 B. 72 C. 5,000 D. 300 2. When was the law to protect China's wetlands made? (Choose ONE) A. In the 1980s B. In 2022 C. In February D. Not mentioned in the passage Task 2: In - depth Comprehension (深层理解) 3. Why do floods and rain shortage in Poyang Lake affect the birds? A. Because they destroy the birds' nests B. Because they lead to less food in the birds' habitat C. Because they make the birds move to other countries D. Because they reduce the number of wetlands 4. What can we know from the example of the endangered birds in Dongting Lake? A. The number of the endangered birds has decreased a lot B. The methods to protect wetlands have worked well C. Dongting Lake is not a good wintering place for birds D. There are only 72 kinds of water birds in Dongting Lake Task 3: Express Your Thoughts (表达观点) 5. What else do you think we can do to protect the birds' habitat besides the methods mentioned in the passage? Use your own thoughts to answer. 【答案】 Task 1: Understand the Story (基础理解) 1. 答案：A 解析：根据原文第三段第一句“China has named 1，140 places these years as important living and wintering places in wetlands”，可直接得出答案为1140个，对应选项A。 2. 答案：B 解析：原文第三段明确提到“To protect China's wetlands，a law was also made in 2022 to control human activities”，说明保护湿地的法律制定于2022年，对应选项B。 Task 2: In-depth Comprehension (深层理解) 3. 答案：B 解析：原文第二段指出“Both of these situations（洪水和少雨）lead to less food in the birds' habitat”，即两种情况均导致鸟类栖息地食物减少，这是影响鸟类的核心原因，对应选项B。 4. 答案：B 解析：原文第四段开头提到“Since these methods have worked well，more birds have been seen wintering in the nation's wetlands”，随后用洞庭湖濒危鸟类数量从20世纪80年代的300只增至如今5000多只的例子佐证，说明湿地保护措施效果显著，对应选项B。 Task 3: Express Your Thoughts (表达观点) 参考示例： First, we can carry out publicity activities in communities and schools to let more people know the importance of protecting birds' habitats, so as to reduce human damage to wetlands. Second, we can set up monitoring stations near wetlands to timely find and solve problems such as illegal hunting or pollution that may harm birds. Third, we can work with environmental protection organizations to plant more plants suitable for birds in wetlands, providing them with more food and shelter. $Unit 7 The natural world 课时6 Integration ABC 分层作业 核心知识速记 03拓展培优 01基础达标 04思维进阶 02能力提升 ( 词汇 1. north - east /ˌnɔː θ ˈiːst/ n., adj. & adv. 东北；东北方的；向东北方 2. cover /ˈkʌvə(r)/ n. 躲避处；罩子 3. rare /reə(r)/ adj. 稀罕的，珍贵的 4. red - crowned crane /ˌred ˈkraʊnd kreɪn/ n. 丹顶鹤 5. daytime /ˈdeɪtaɪm/ n. 白天 6. lead /liːd/ vi. 造成(后果) 7. mud /mʌd/ n. 泥，淤泥，泥浆 8. create /kriˈeɪt/ vt. 创建，创造 9. balanced /ˈb æ lənst/ adj. 保持平衡的 10. project /ˈprɒdʒekt/ n. 项目 11. knowledge /ˈnɒlɪdʒ/ n. 知识 短语 1. lead to 导致 2. set up 建立 3. in the daytime 在白天 4. make laws 制定法律 5. encourage sb to do sth 鼓励某人做某事 句型 1.
