They are quiet and friendly. They live happily in the sea. But some countries kill whales. Japan is one of them. Japan is a small country. Many people go fishing in Japan. Some schools even cook whale meat for students. Whales are important to the sea. They swim up and down. They bring up things for other sea animals and plants to eat. Many animals and plants live on them. When whales die (死亡), small animals can eat them for about one hundred years. But now, whales are in great danger because they don’t have much food to eat, many whales die. Another reason is that whales are killed by people. Many people kill whales for money. Fishermen from Japan, Norway and other countries kill whales. Every year, they kill around 1,500 large whales. Some whales like blue whales have died out because of killing. At the same time, they are in great danger. How can we help them? 1．Are whales quiet and friendly? 2．How long can small animals eat the whales when they die? 3．Why are many whales in great danger around the world? 4．How can we save whales? Give at least (至少) two pieces of advice. 【答案】1．Yes./Yes, they are. 2．For about 100 years. 3．Because they don’t have much food to eat and they are killed by people. 4． Don’t kill whales. Save the other animals in the sea to make enough food for the whales. (言之有理即可得分) 【导语】本文介绍了鲸鱼是世界上最大的动物，它们安静友好，对海洋很重要，但如今却面临着诸多危险，如食物短缺以及遭到人类捕杀等情况。 1．根据“Whales are the biggest animals in the world.

Southern White Rhinos (犀牛) Southern white rhinos mainly live in Africa. They are very large in size. There are two horns (角) on the nose. The front horn is over half a meter long, while the other one is smaller. Some humans kill rhinos for their horns. They sell horns to those who believe horns have magic powers or can treat sickness. It puts southern white rhinos in danger. Golden Monkeys Golden monkeys eat fruit and leaves of bamboo. But people are destroying (破坏) the environment where they live. Trees and bamboo are becoming less and less, so golden monkeys have less food to eat. Elephants Elephants usually live in groups. Young elephants do not leave the group until they are about 12 years old. Now, the number of them is becoming smaller because people use their living areas for farming and kill them for their ivory (象牙). Wolves Wolves are not big and they have grey fur (皮毛).

But there is one kind of horse that is badly in need of help. They’re Przewalski’s horses. At first, Przewalski’s horses lived in the steppes (大草原) in Mongolia. Because of human activities, they lost their homes and had to move to deserts. However, people still captured (捕获) them. People saw the very last wild Przewalski’s horse in 1969. After it died, there were no Przewalski’s horses in the wild. Luckily, there were some Przewalski’s horses in zoos. In 1900, an animal trader named Carl Hagenbeck captured a lot of baby Przewalski’s horses and sold them to Europe. Only 53 of the baby horses survived (艰难度过) the trip and they went to zoos there. Although that was terrible, it stopped Przewalski’s horses from dying out. In the 1970s, there were about 300 Przewalski’s horses left in the world, because fewer and fewer baby horses were born (出生). Then three people from the Netherlands decided to do something to save Przewalski’s horses. They bought the horses from zoos and put them in special reserves. When the horses became healthier and learned the skills of living in nature, they went into the wild in Mongolia. Today, people have realized the importance of protecting Przewalski’s horses. They try their best to protect them and keep their number growing. Now there are about 2,000 Przewalski’s horses in the world. We all hope that in the future there will be a lot more Przewalski’s horses. 1．Where did Przewalski’s horses live at first?

People used to call the mountain Daqueshan, which means bird-hunting mountain. The villagers used to hunt birds on the mountain. Then one year, they couldn’t hear birds singing. People started to worry if migratory birds would return again. In 1984, the Hongtupo Forest Police Station was set up. The officers worked on the mountain, trying to find migratory birds and stop people from hunting them. The job was really difficult. They might lose their way or meet dangerous animals. The officers also tried to tell villagers the importance of protecting birds and other wild animals. They visited the villagers door to door and helped them with farm work. They even organized activities in schools to get their messages across to children. Now, even children know that birds are to be loved.      The mountain is greener, the water is clearer, and more and more animals come to live here. It has become a bird-protecting mountain. Many people have opened bed-and-breakfasts (民宿) for birdwatchers.     “The village has changed a lot, and we don’t hunt birds anymore,” people say.

Koalas, which are often called koala “bears”, are tree-climbing animals and are seen as national symbols of Australia. However, recently the Australian government has announced (宣布) that koalas are endangered animals across much of the country. As a matter of fact, the country lost 30% of its koala population between 2018 and 2021, especially in New South Wales, according to a report from the Australian Koala Foundation. If nothing was done, New South Wales’ koalas would die out by 2050, research in June 2020 said. “This must be a wake-up call to Australia and the government to move much faster to protect the cute animals,” Josey Sharrad, a manager with the International Fund for Animal Welfare, said seriously. Koalas are dying out all over the country because of the climate change and the fast development of cities. People have seen some places that look like the moon — with dead and dying trees everywhere. After WWF-Australia and the International Fund for Animal Welfare called on the government to announce koalas as endangered in April, the government promised they would get more public support and protect koalas’ home — they live in the forests and woodlands. The Australian government is now doing its best to collect money to protect koalas. On the one hand, it has spent $13 million in helping improve their living places. On the other hand, the government plans to spend another $36 million doing better health research and medical support to further help koala programs over the next four years. “We should never have allowed things to get to the point where we are at risk of losing a national symbol,” Environment Minister Susan Ley said. 1．What has the Australian government announced recently? 2．When would New South Wales’ koalas die out if nothing was done? 3．Why are koalas dying out all over the country? 4．Where do koalas live in Australia? 5．What may happen to koalas over the next four years? Why do you think so? 【答案】1．Koalas are endangered animals across much of the country. 2．By 2050. 3．Because of the climate change and the fast development of cities. 4．In the forests and woodlands. 5．They may have better living places./They may get more medical support./They may get more public support./They may have a better life (in the wild)./They will be well protected./They may not die out very soon. Because the Australian government is trying its best to help koalas./Because the Australian government spends a lot of money helping koalas. /Because the Australian government is /people are paying close attention to koalas. 【导语】本文主要介绍了考拉的生存现状以及政府采取的措施。 1．根据“However, recently the Australian government has announced (宣布) that koalas are endangered animals across much of the country”可知，近期澳大利亚政府宣布考拉在该国大部分地区都是濒危动物。故填Koalas are endangered animals across much of the country. 2．根据“If nothing was done, New South Wales’ koalas would die out by 2050”可知，如果什么都不做的话，新南威尔士州的考拉将在2050年灭绝，故填By 2050. 3．根据“Koalas are dying out all over the country because of the climate change and the fast development of cities.”可知，由于气候变化和城市的快速发展，考拉正在全国各地灭绝。故填Because of the climate change and the fast development of cities. 4．根据“they live in the forests and woodlands.”可知，它们住在森林和林地。故填In the forests and woodlands. 5．开放性习题，根据本文中介绍了考拉的现状以及现阶段政府采取的措施，给出合理的推断和理由即可。参考答案：They may have better living places./They may get more medical support./They may get more public support./They may have a better life (in the wild)./They will be well protected./They may not die out very soon.

Although the panda is one of the best-known, best-loved and cutest animals in the world, it lives a solitary (独居的) life. Pandas once lived in a few parts of Asia, including (包括) Vietnam and Burma, but now they live only in some parts of China. Pandas spend about 12 hours every day eating. They mainly eat bamboo. And they always travel between different places to find fresh bamboo. Also, they eat fruit, other plants and some fish. Pandas usually live in cold and wet places. Their black-and-white coats keep them warm. Pandas are very good at climbing. If people or animals run after them, they will climb up the nearest tree very quickly. Their good hearing also helps them to avoid animals who want to eat them. There are about 1,900 wild pandas left in China. Their main problem is that their living places are becoming smaller and smaller. China has realized this problem and is trying her best to do things for pandas. Now, China has set up some special places which are big enough for pandas to live in. 1．Do pandas live a solitary life? 2．How long do pandas spend eating every day? 3．Where do pandas usually live? 4．What will a panda do if an animal runs after it? 5．What’s the main problem for wild pandas? 【答案】1．Yes, they do. 2．For about 12 hours. 3．In cold and wet places. 4．It will climb up the nearest tree very quickly. 5．Their living places are becoming smaller and smaller. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了大熊猫的分布与生活习性。 1．根据第一段“Although the panda is one of the best-known, best-loved and cutest animals in the world, it lives a solitary life.”可知，大熊猫过着独居生活，应作肯定回答。故填Yes, they do. 2．根据第二段“Pandas spend about 12 hours every day eating.”可知，大熊猫每天花费大约12小时进食。故填For about 12 hours. 3．根据第三段“Pandas usually live in cold and wet places.”可知，大熊猫通常生活在寒冷潮湿的地方。故填In cold and wet places. 4．根据第四段“If people or animals run after them, they will climb up the nearest tree very quickly.”可知，当有动物追赶大熊猫时，它会迅速爬上最近的树。故填It will climb up the nearest tree very quickly. 5．根据最后一段“Their main problem is that their living places are becoming smaller and smaller.”可知，野生大熊猫面临的主要问题是它们的栖息地变得越来越小。故填Their living places are becoming smaller and smaller. 能力综合实践5篇 Twenty years ago in Costa Rica, three girls found a baby sloth (树懒) on a road. The little animal’s mother was killed by a car. These girls took the baby sloth to Judy, the owner of a hotel. Judy wanted to help, but she didn’t know how to look after the sloth, so she called the zoo. With the help of the zoo, Judy took good care of the baby sloth. She named the baby sloth Buttercup. After her first success, more people brought Judy wounded (受伤的) sloths or baby sloths they found. Judy then opened a help centre. Today, the help centre has saved more than 500 sloths. Sloths live in the forests of Central America. We can also see them in South America. They hang onto the trees with their claws (爪子). There are two main types of sloths. You can know them by the number of their claws. Sloths hardly move. They spend most of their time sleeping in the trees. But now, with the increase of population, human beings cause a lot of problems for these slow and quiet animals. The main problem is that the forests are becoming smaller and smaller. When trees are cut down, sloths will fall and hurt themselves. Some sloths live near human beings and they sometimes are hit by cars or killed by dogs. 1．Why did Judy call the zoo? 2．Where do the sloths live? 3．Can the sloths run very fast? 4．What is the main problem for sloths? 5．What should we learn from the last paragraph? 【答案】1．Because she didn’t know how to look after the sloth. 2．Sloths live in the forests of Central America and South America. 3．No, they can’t. 4．The main problem is that the forests are becoming smaller and smaller. 5．We should stop cutting down trees and reduce human threats. 【导语】本文由Judy救助树懒的经历引出了树懒及其生存现状。 1．根据文章第1段“Judy wanted to help, but she didn’t know how to look after the sloth, so she called the zoo.”可知，Judy想帮忙，但她不知道如何照顾树懒，于是她给动物园打了电话。故填Because she didn’t know how to look after the sloth. 2．根据文章第3段“Sloths live in the forests of Central America. We can also see them in South America.”可知，树懒生活在中美洲的森林里，我们在南美洲也能看到它们。故填Sloths live in the forests of Central America and South America. 3．根据文章第4段“But now, with the increase of population, human beings cause a lot of problems for these slow and quiet animals.”可知，树懒是一种行动缓慢且安静的动物。故填No, they can’t. 4．根据文章第4段“The main problem is that the forests are becoming smaller and smaller.”可知，栖息地减少是树懒生存的最大威胁。故填The main problem is that the forests are becoming smaller and smaller. 5．根据文章第4段“human beings cause a lot of problems...sloths are hit by cars or killed by dogs”可知，人类导致了许多问题，树懒的栖息地减少，当树木被砍伐时，树懒会从树上跌落并受伤。有些树懒有时会被汽车撞到或被狗杀死。可推知，我们应该停止砍伐树木并减少人为伤害。故填We should stop cutting down trees and reduce human threats. On the Hunt: When ice is on the ocean, the polar bears are on the hunt. They are hunting seals. Polar bears need the ice. They can’t catch seals as well in the water, where there is no ice. In summer, some of the sea ice melts. Now, however, the sea ice is melting earlier than it used to melt. There is not as much time for the polar bears to hunt for food.Hungry Bears: When it is summer, the polar bears come onto the land. They should have enough fat in their bodies to keep them from getting hungry. Some polar bears, however, haven’t been able to get enough to eat. By the end of summer, they are starving. If a polar bear has cubs, the mother might not have enough food for them. This means that not as many cubs will survive to be grown bears.Polar Bear Jail: Some bears are so hungry they wander into towns looking for food. They have been found digging in rubbish dumps. In a town called Churchill, in Canada, there is a polar bear jail. When someone sees a polar bear too close to town, it is caught and taken to the jail. The bears are kept in the jail until they can be put safely back on the ice.Learning About Polar Bears: Scientists want to learn all they can about polar bears and how they can help them. To help the bears, they have to do tests. This means getting close to the bears. It is very difficult, however, for scientists to get close to them. Scientists fly in a helicopter over the places where polar bears live. When they spot a bear, they shoot a dart at it. The dart makes the bear go to sleep.Testing Polar Bears: While the bear is asleep, the scientists can do their tests. The most important test is the fat test. If the bear hasn’t eaten for two months, it won’t have enough fat to live on. Scientists put a tattoo on the bear so they can track it. They also mark the bear with spray paint. Then they won’t bother that bear again until the next year.The Future: Many people are worried about the melting ice. Polar bears have to go further and work harder to find food. If the ice keeps melting, one day there might not be any polar bears. Scientists want to protect polar bears and the places they live. Polar bears have an important place in the world. 1．What is the influence on polar bears when sea ice melts earlier than before? 2．Why is there a “polar bear jail” in Churchill, Canada? 3．How do scientists safely get close to polar bears for research? 4．Only depend on its own fat, how long can a polar bear live? 5．As a student, list one piece of advice on protecting polar bears. 【答案】1．There is not as much time for some of the sea ice melts. 2．To catch and keep bears that wander into town for food until they can be safely released back to the ice. 3．They fly in a helicopter over polar bear habitats, spot a bear, and shoot a dart to make it sleep. 4．For two months. 5．Make posters to protect polar bears./Use public transport./Join wildlife clubs./Raise money at school. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了北极熊因海冰提前融化而面临的生存挑战，包括狩猎时间减少、饥饿问题加剧，以及科学家为研究和保护北极熊所采取的措施。 1．根据文章“There is not as much time for the polar bears to hunt for food.”可知，海冰提前融化导致北极熊狩猎时间减少。故填There is not as much time for some of the sea ice melts. 2．根据文章“Some bears are so hungry they wander into towns looking for food.”和“When someone sees a polar bear too close to town, it is caught and taken to the jail. The bears are kept in the jail until they can be put safely back on the ice.”可知，“北极熊监狱”是为了暂时收容这些饥饿的北极熊，直到它们能被安全放归冰面。故填To catch and keep bears that wander into town for food until they can be safely released back to the ice. 3．根据文章“Scientists fly in a helicopter over the places where polar bears live. When they spot a bear, they shoot a dart at it. The dart makes the bear go to sleep.”可知，科学家通过麻醉方式（发现目标后发射麻醉镖使其入睡）安全接近北极熊进行研究。故填They fly in a helicopter over polar bear habitats, spot a bear, and shoot a dart to make it sleep.   4．根据文章“If the bear hasn’t eaten for two months, it won’t have enough fat to live on.可知，北极熊仅靠自身脂肪能存活约两个月。故填For two months. 5．本题为开放性题目，结合文章主题“保护北极熊及其栖息地”，言之有理即可。答案不唯一，参考答案为：Make posters to protect polar bears./Use public transport./Join wildlife clubs./Raise money at school. Not all penguins live in cold places. African penguins live in the south of Africa. Like other penguins, African penguins spend most of the day feeding in the ocean, and that helps keep them cool. Most other penguins lay their eggs in the open. However, African penguins do it in a different way. They dig holes to lay their eggs so that they are protected from the sun’s heat (高温). The baby penguins stay in the holes for about three weeks. After that, they start going out and return to the holes to stay cool and avoid dangerous animals. On land, some animals, such as dogs and cats, will eat penguins. African penguins are in danger now. There are only about 52,000 left in the wild. One problem is that they are losing their homes. Other problems include humans picking penguin eggs for sale, competing with humans for fish, and facing the oil pollution in the ocean. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 1．Where do African penguins live? 2．What do African penguins spend most of the day doing? 3．How long do the baby penguins stay in the holes? 4．What animals will eat African penguins on land? 5．How many African penguins are there in the wild? 【答案】1．They live in the south of Africa. 2．They spend most of the day feeding in the ocean. 3．For about three weeks. 4．Some animals, such as dogs and cats (will eat African penguins on land). 5．About 52,000. 【导语】本文主要介绍了非洲企鹅的生活习性、繁殖方式以及它们面临的生存威胁。 1．根据“African penguins live in the south of Africa.”可知，非洲企鹅生活在非洲南部，故填They live in the south of Africa. 2．根据“African penguins spend most of the day feeding in the ocean…”可知，它们大部分时间在海洋中觅食，故填They spend most of the day feeding in the ocean. 3．根据“The baby penguins stay in the holes for about three weeks.” 可知，幼崽会在洞中停留约三周，故填For about three weeks. 4．根据“On land, some animals, such as dogs and cats, will eat penguins.” 可知，陆地上一些动物，如狗和猫会捕食企鹅，故填Some animals, such as dogs and cats (will eat African penguins on land). 5．根据“There are only about 52,000 left in the wild.”可知，野生非洲企鹅数量约为52,000只，故填About 52,000. The WWF (世界自然基金会) has warned that climate change is threatening (威胁) the life of the snow leopards (雪豹) in the Himalayas (喜马拉雅山脉). It says rising temperatures cause the natural living places of the big cat to the point that snow leopards could die out. In a new report, it says that up to a third of the areas on the mountain where the snow leopards live could become uninhabitable (不宜居住的). Lots of plants and food the animals need could disappear in warmer temperatures. The WWF said, “The Himalayas area will face danger if we choose not to care about climate change...We will lose the snow leopard.” It isn’t just climate change that is making a serious threat to the future of the snow leopard. Many activities from humans are also adding to the dangers the animals face. Snow leopards are highly needed for their fur and body parts. People are killing the animals for money. The snow leopards are also being killed by farmers when they are trying to protect their animals. As the natural food of the snow leopards is decreasing, the animals are going into human areas to kill farm animals. The result is that the farmers shoot the snow leopards. The WWF reported this result on Friday, which was the first International Snow Leopard Day. 根据语篇内容，回答下列问题。(不超过8个词) 1．Where is climate change threatening the life of the snow leopard? 2．What causes the natural living places of the big cat to the point that snow leopards could die out? 3．How could a third of the areas on the mountain where the leopards live become in the new report? 4．What are people killing the animals for? 5．When did the WWF report the result? 【答案】1．In the Himalayas. 2．Rising temperatures. 3．Uninhabitable. 4．Money. 5．On Friday, the first International Snow Leopard Day. 【导语】本文主要介绍了气候变化和人类活动对雪豹生存的威胁，包括栖息地减少、食物消失以及人类猎杀等。 1．根据“climate change is threatening the life of the snow leopards in the Himalayas”可知，喜马拉雅气候的变化威胁着雪豹的生存。故填In the Himalayas. 2．根据“It says rising temperatures cause the natural living places of the big cat to the point that snow leopards could die out.”可知，气温上升是导致雪豹栖息地恶化，雪豹可能会灭绝的原因。故填Rising temperatures. 3．根据“In a new report, it says that up to a third of the areas on the mountain where the snow leopards live could become uninhabitable.”可知，雪豹栖息地三分之一的山区可能会变得不宜居住。故填Uninhabitable. 4．根据“People are killing the animals for money.”可知，人们为了钱猎杀雪豹。故填Money. 5．根据“The WWF reported this result on Friday, which was the first International Snow Leopard Day.”可知，世界自然基金会在周五报告了这一结果，这是第一个国际雪豹日。故填On Friday, the first International Snow Leopard Day. In Africa, hippos live in the rivers. One day, Karen walked along a river. She counted the hippos. There were not as many hippos as there had been. It hadn’t rained for a long time. Now there was a bad drought and the river was drying up. The animals that lived near this river had no water or grass. Many of them were dying. People were trying to help other animals. But no one was helping the hippos. The hippos were starving (挨饿). They were coming out of the river to look for food. There was nothing for them to eat. Karen put food in the river. Then, she waited. Hippos are not used to being fed by people. She didn’t know what they would do. The hippos, however, were so hungry that they ate the food. Karen made waterholes, but the river dried up more. So, hippo families had to share one waterhole. Sharing was a problem. The hippo families were not good at sharing. The big bulls began to fight with each other. A hippo was killed in the fight. Karen needed to do something. She wrote letters to people asking for help. Many people sent money to her. Karen had enough money to build a dam (水坝). Now, the hippos had their own space. Karen has watched and taken care of hippos for many years. She knows a lot about them. It is strange, but hippos like licking crocodiles. She has seen hippos pulling prey off crocodiles, too. Sometimes Karen takes people to see the hippos. She tells them that if a hippo charges, they must run fast and climb a tree! Hippos can be very dangerous, but they are important. Their big bodies make tracks (足迹) on land. The tracks help other animals to find the waterholes. Hippos keep the grass short. This helps to make a fire break. Hippos need the rivers. And, the world needs hippos. 1．Why were the hippos starving? 2．What did Karen do to help the hippos at first? 3．How did Karen get the money to build a dam? 4．Why are hippos important for the environment? 5．What should we do to protect the animals? 【答案】1．Because no one was helping the hippos. 2．Karen put food in the river. 3．She wrote letters to people asking for help. Many people sent money to her. 4．Their tracks help other animals to find the waterholes and they help to make a fire break. 5．We can support conservation organizations that work to preserve forests, wetlands, grasslands and other natural habitats.

This helps to make a fire break.”可知，河马巨大的身体在陆地上留下足迹。这些脚印可以帮助其他动物找到水坑。河马让草长得很短。这有助于建立防火通道。故填Their tracks help other animals to find the waterholes and they help to make a fire break. 5．开放性题目，答案合理即可。参考答案为We can support conservation organizations that work to preserve forests, wetlands, grasslands and other natural habitats. 16 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 21 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年一线教师制作新教材英语同步精品系列资料，名师遴选！ 2025-2026学年一线教师制作新教材英语同步精品系列资料，名师遴选！ 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ Unit 5 Wild animals 单元话题（野生动物）阅读回答问题进阶练15篇 说明：此专题分三个难度层次，基础入门训练<进阶拓展训练< 能力综合实践，老师根据学生实际情况进行针对性难度训练。 基础入门训练5篇 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，完成下列各题。 Whales are the biggest animals in the world. They are quiet and friendly. They live happily in the sea. But some countries kill whales. Japan is one of them. Japan is a small country. Many people go fishing in Japan. Some schools even cook whale meat for students. Whales are important to the sea. They swim up and down. They bring up things for other sea animals and plants to eat. Many animals and plants live on them. When whales die (死亡), small animals can eat them for about one hundred years. But now, whales are in great danger because they don’t have much food to eat, many whales die. Another reason is that whales are killed by people. Many people kill whales for money. Fishermen from Japan, Norway and other countries kill whales. Every year, they kill around 1,500 large whales. Some whales like blue whales have died out because of killing. At the same time, they are in great danger. How can we help them? 1．Are whales quiet and friendly? 2．How long can small animals eat the whales when they die? 3．Why are many whales in great danger around the world? 4．How can we save whales? Give at least (至少) two pieces of advice. 请阅读下面短文，根据所提供的信息，回答5个问题。要求所写答案语法正确、语义完整切题，并把答案写在答题卡对应题目的答题位置上。      Blue whales are huge animals. They live in oceans around the world. They are about 30 meters long. The biggest blue whale is about 190, 000 kilograms and 98 feet long. This makes blue whales the largest animals on the earth, even bigger than the largest dinosaurs. The blue whale feeds on small animals. There were many blue whales in the 19th century, but now there are only around 4, 000 left.     The elephant is the largest animal on land. The largest elephant is about 13, 500 kilograms and stands about 13 feet 8 inches tall. Elephants mainly feed on grass, leaves and fruit. At the turn of the 20th century, there were a few million African elephants and about 100, 000 Asian elephants. Today, there are about 450, 000 African elephants and about 40, 000 Asian elephants.     The tiger is the largest wild cat in the world. It lives in Asia, mainly in India, Bhutan, China and Siberia. Tigers love eating meat. Most tigers have orange fur with black stripes (条纹). The white tiger is the most special. Tigers are becoming fewer and fewer. Around the world, the Bengal tiger has the largest population with about 3, 500 left in the wild. 1．Where do blue whales live? 2．How heavy is the biggest blue whale? 3．What do elephants mainly feed on? 4．What color is the most special tiger? 5．How many wild Bengal tigers are there in the world? Wild animals are our friends, but the number of them is getting smaller and smaller. The following four kinds of animals are in danger now. Southern White Rhinos (犀牛) Southern white rhinos mainly live in Africa. They are very large in size. There are two horns (角) on the nose. The front horn is over half a meter long, while the other one is smaller. Some humans kill rhinos for their horns. They sell horns to those who believe horns have magic powers or can treat sickness. It puts southern white rhinos in danger. Golden Monkeys Golden monkeys eat fruit and leaves of bamboo. But people are destroying (破坏) the environment where they live. Trees and bamboo are becoming less and less, so golden monkeys have less food to eat. Elephants Elephants usually live in groups. Young elephants do not leave the group until they are about 12 years old. Now, the number of them is becoming smaller because people use their living areas for farming and kill them for their ivory (象牙). Wolves Wolves are not big and they have grey fur (皮毛). They eat many kinds of animals. Wolves are losing their living areas because people cut down the forests. Soon they will have no home or food. 根据短文内容，完成下列各题。 1．Where do southern white rhinos mainly live? 2．Why do some humans kill southern white rhinos? 3．What kind of animal eats fruit and leaves of bamboo according to the passage? 4．When do the young elephants leave the group? 5．What color is wolves’ fur? Have you ever heard of pygmy hippos? Moo Deng is a baby pygmy hippo. She was born in July at the Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Thailand. People like her because she is playful and full of life. Her name, Moo Deng, means “bouncy pork (弹跳猪)”. It is a good name for her fun and lively nature. Moo Deng’s keeper, Mr Nundee, started posting videos of her on social media when she was very young. These videos made Moo Deng famous. People all over the world enjoy watching videos of her running around, playing with her mother, and trying to bite (咬) Mr Nundee in a funny way. Now Moo Deng has millions of fans. Many people share her pictures and videos online. Some companies even use her pictures to make jokes or sell things like makeup and cakes. Her fame (名气) brings many visitors to the zoo. Thousands of people come every day to see her. The zoo made shirts, T-shirts, and pants. These clothes all had pictures of Moo Deng on them and were sold out very quickly. The zoo plans to use the money to help look after more endangered (濒危的) animals. The zoo hopes that more people will learn about these animals and want to protect them in the future. Pygmy hippos are in great danger. Only about 2,500 pygmy hippos live in the wild. They live in the forests in West Africa. Because people cut down trees to make farms and roads, many forests are disappearing. Some people also hunt pygmy hippos for food. This makes it difficult for pygmy hippos to stay safe. The zoo hopes Moo Deng’s fame will help people understand why they should protect these animals and their forest homes. At the zoo, Moo Deng faces some problems. Some visitors throw water or other things at her. They want her to move or play more. To protect her, the zoo now limits how many people can see her and how long they can stay. The zoo is also setting up a webcam (网络摄像头), so people can watch her online anytime—24 hours a day. With this, her fans can watch her playful life, and she stays safe. 1．Why do people like Moo Deng? 2．What does the zoo plan to do with the money from selling clothes? 3．How many pygmy hippos live in the wild? 4．Is it important to protect pygmy hippos? What do you think are the good ways? (Please give two ways.) 阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上。请注意词数要求。 When it comes to saving wild animals, few people will think of horses. But there is one kind of horse that is badly in need of help. They’re Przewalski’s horses. At first, Przewalski’s horses lived in the steppes (大草原) in Mongolia. Because of human activities, they lost their homes and had to move to deserts. However, people still captured (捕获) them. People saw the very last wild Przewalski’s horse in 1969. After it died, there were no Przewalski’s horses in the wild. Luckily, there were some Przewalski’s horses in zoos. In 1900, an animal trader named Carl Hagenbeck captured a lot of baby Przewalski’s horses and sold them to Europe. Only 53 of the baby horses survived (艰难度过) the trip and they went to zoos there. Although that was terrible, it stopped Przewalski’s horses from dying out. In the 1970s, there were about 300 Przewalski’s horses left in the world, because fewer and fewer baby horses were born (出生). Then three people from the Netherlands decided to do something to save Przewalski’s horses. They bought the horses from zoos and put them in special reserves. When the horses became healthier and learned the skills of living in nature, they went into the wild in Mongolia. Today, people have realized the importance of protecting Przewalski’s horses. They try their best to protect them and keep their number growing. Now there are about 2,000 Przewalski’s horses in the world. We all hope that in the future there will be a lot more Przewalski’s horses. 1．Where did Przewalski’s horses live at first? (No more than 5 words) 2．When did people see the last Przewalski’s horse in the wild? (No more than 2 words) 3．Who captured baby Przewalski’s horses and sold them to Europe? (No more than 3 words) 4．What did the three people from the Netherlands do to save Przewalski’s horses? (No more than 12 words) 5．How many Przewalski’s horses are there in the world today? (No more than 2 words) 进阶拓展训练5篇 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 The Fairy Penguin (精灵企鹅) Fairy penguins are the smallest of all the penguins in the world. They live in the south of Australia and in New Zealand. Fairy penguins weigh (重) about one kilogram. They stand thirty centimeters (厘米) tall. Their back feathers (羽毛) are dark blue and their front feathers are white. Fairy penguins live on the land and in the sea. They are very good swimmers but they cannot fly. They eat small fish. Fairy penguins breed (繁殖) on land. The mother penguins lay two white eggs in a hole. The mother and father penguins share the job of sitting on the eggs. When the baby penguins come out, the mother and father penguins bring food from the sea. In eight weeks the baby penguins can have grown feathers. They are soon ready to look for their own food. Fairy penguins are often in danger. Wild animals eat them, people catch them and they have no place to live in. If their numbers become too small, these little penguins might leave our world forever. 1．Are fairy penguins the smallest of all the penguins in the world? 2．What color are fairy penguins’ feathers? 3．What do fairy penguins eat? 4．Who shares the job of sitting on the eggs? 5．Why are fairy penguins often in danger? 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 The Guizhou golden monkey, is one of the world’s most endangered (濒危的) kinds of monkeys, according to UNESCO. These monkeys only live in the Fanjingshan National Nature Reserve. There, people are looking closely at these monkeys and the different kinds of plants in places where they live. This way, they learn more about the monkeys and how to help them. For years, Li Haibo, a scientist on animal protection, and his team help these monkeys have babies. From 2018 to 2022, three monkey babies were born with the help of their team. “We used to wait for three years for a baby monkey, but now it only takes two years,” said Li. Also, Guizhou province started building ecological corridors (生态走廊) this year to protect the home of these monkeys. That means our country is planting more trees that the monkeys like to eat from and live in. Because of this work, the number of the Guizhou golden monkeys has grown to between 700 and 800, according to the Fanjingshan National Nature Reserve Administration. 1．Are the Guizhou golden monkeys in danger? 2．Where do the Guizhou golden monkeys live? 3．Why do people look closely at these monkeys and the plants around? 4．What do people do to help these monkeys? 阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。      From September to February each year, Dazhong Mountain in Chuxiong, Yunnan is home to more than 50, 000, 000 migratory birds (候鸟). People used to call the mountain Daqueshan, which means bird-hunting mountain. The villagers used to hunt birds on the mountain. Then one year, they couldn’t hear birds singing. People started to worry if migratory birds would return again. In 1984, the Hongtupo Forest Police Station was set up. The officers worked on the mountain, trying to find migratory birds and stop people from hunting them. The job was really difficult. They might lose their way or meet dangerous animals. The officers also tried to tell villagers the importance of protecting birds and other wild animals. They visited the villagers door to door and helped them with farm work. They even organized activities in schools to get their messages across to children. Now, even children know that birds are to be loved.      The mountain is greener, the water is clearer, and more and more animals come to live here. It has become a bird-protecting mountain. Many people have opened bed-and-breakfasts (民宿) for birdwatchers.     “The village has changed a lot, and we don’t hunt birds anymore,” people say. Since people have stopped hunting, the police station now mainly works to save injured (受伤的) wildlife. 1．How many migratory birds live on Dazhong Mountain from September to February? 2．What did the villagers on Dazhong Mountain use to do? 3．What danger might the officers face on the mountain? 4．What do you think we should do to protect the birds? Write 20 words or more. Have you ever seen a koala somewhere? Koalas, which are often called koala “bears”, are tree-climbing animals and are seen as national symbols of Australia. However, recently the Australian government has announced (宣布) that koalas are endangered animals across much of the country. As a matter of fact, the country lost 30% of its koala population between 2018 and 2021, especially in New South Wales, according to a report from the Australian Koala Foundation. If nothing was done, New South Wales’ koalas would die out by 2050, research in June 2020 said. “This must be a wake-up call to Australia and the government to move much faster to protect the cute animals,” Josey Sharrad, a manager with the International Fund for Animal Welfare, said seriously. Koalas are dying out all over the country because of the climate change and the fast development of cities. People have seen some places that look like the moon — with dead and dying trees everywhere. After WWF-Australia and the International Fund for Animal Welfare called on the government to announce koalas as endangered in April, the government promised they would get more public support and protect koalas’ home — they live in the forests and woodlands. The Australian government is now doing its best to collect money to protect koalas. On the one hand, it has spent $13 million in helping improve their living places. On the other hand, the government plans to spend another $36 million doing better health research and medical support to further help koala programs over the next four years. “We should never have allowed things to get to the point where we are at risk of losing a national symbol,” Environment Minister Susan Ley said. 1．What has the Australian government announced recently? 2．When would New South Wales’ koalas die out if nothing was done? 3．Why are koalas dying out all over the country? 4．Where do koalas live in Australia? 5．What may happen to koalas over the next four years? Why do you think so? Although the panda is one of the best-known, best-loved and cutest animals in the world, it lives a solitary (独居的) life. Pandas once lived in a few parts of Asia, including (包括) Vietnam and Burma, but now they live only in some parts of China. Pandas spend about 12 hours every day eating. They mainly eat bamboo. And they always travel between different places to find fresh bamboo. Also, they eat fruit, other plants and some fish. Pandas usually live in cold and wet places. Their black-and-white coats keep them warm. Pandas are very good at climbing. If people or animals run after them, they will climb up the nearest tree very quickly. Their good hearing also helps them to avoid animals who want to eat them. There are about 1,900 wild pandas left in China. Their main problem is that their living places are becoming smaller and smaller. China has realized this problem and is trying her best to do things for pandas. Now, China has set up some special places which are big enough for pandas to live in. 1．Do pandas live a solitary life? 2．How long do pandas spend eating every day? 3．Where do pandas usually live? 4．What will a panda do if an animal runs after it? 5．What’s the main problem for wild pandas? 能力综合实践5篇 Twenty years ago in Costa Rica, three girls found a baby sloth (树懒) on a road. The little animal’s mother was killed by a car. These girls took the baby sloth to Judy, the owner of a hotel. Judy wanted to help, but she didn’t know how to look after the sloth, so she called the zoo. With the help of the zoo, Judy took good care of the baby sloth. She named the baby sloth Buttercup. After her first success, more people brought Judy wounded (受伤的) sloths or baby sloths they found. Judy then opened a help centre. Today, the help centre has saved more than 500 sloths. Sloths live in the forests of Central America. We can also see them in South America. They hang onto the trees with their claws (爪子). There are two main types of sloths. You can know them by the number of their claws. Sloths hardly move. They spend most of their time sleeping in the trees. But now, with the increase of population, human beings cause a lot of problems for these slow and quiet animals. The main problem is that the forests are becoming smaller and smaller. When trees are cut down, sloths will fall and hurt themselves. Some sloths live near human beings and they sometimes are hit by cars or killed by dogs. 1．Why did Judy call the zoo? 2．Where do the sloths live? 3．Can the sloths run very fast? 4．What is the main problem for sloths? 5．What should we learn from the last paragraph? On the Hunt: When ice is on the ocean, the polar bears are on the hunt. They are hunting seals. Polar bears need the ice. They can’t catch seals as well in the water, where there is no ice. In summer, some of the sea ice melts. Now, however, the sea ice is melting earlier than it used to melt. There is not as much time for the polar bears to hunt for food.Hungry Bears: When it is summer, the polar bears come onto the land. They should have enough fat in their bodies to keep them from getting hungry. Some polar bears, however, haven’t been able to get enough to eat. By the end of summer, they are starving. If a polar bear has cubs, the mother might not have enough food for them. This means that not as many cubs will survive to be grown bears.Polar Bear Jail: Some bears are so hungry they wander into towns looking for food. They have been found digging in rubbish dumps. In a town called Churchill, in Canada, there is a polar bear jail. When someone sees a polar bear too close to town, it is caught and taken to the jail. The bears are kept in the jail until they can be put safely back on the ice.Learning About Polar Bears: Scientists want to learn all they can about polar bears and how they can help them. To help the bears, they have to do tests. This means getting close to the bears. It is very difficult, however, for scientists to get close to them. Scientists fly in a helicopter over the places where polar bears live. When they spot a bear, they shoot a dart at it. The dart makes the bear go to sleep.Testing Polar Bears: While the bear is asleep, the scientists can do their tests. The most important test is the fat test. If the bear hasn’t eaten for two months, it won’t have enough fat to live on. Scientists put a tattoo on the bear so they can track it. They also mark the bear with spray paint. Then they won’t bother that bear again until the next year.The Future: Many people are worried about the melting ice. Polar bears have to go further and work harder to find food. If the ice keeps melting, one day there might not be any polar bears. Scientists want to protect polar bears and the places they live. Polar bears have an important place in the world. 1．What is the influence on polar bears when sea ice melts earlier than before? 2．Why is there a “polar bear jail” in Churchill, Canada? 3．How do scientists safely get close to polar bears for research? 4．Only depend on its own fat, how long can a polar bear live? 5．As a student, list one piece of advice on protecting polar bears. Not all penguins live in cold places. African penguins live in the south of Africa. Like other penguins, African penguins spend most of the day feeding in the ocean, and that helps keep them cool. Most other penguins lay their eggs in the open. However, African penguins do it in a different way. They dig holes to lay their eggs so that they are protected from the sun’s heat (高温). The baby penguins stay in the holes for about three weeks. After that, they start going out and return to the holes to stay cool and avoid dangerous animals. On land, some animals, such as dogs and cats, will eat penguins. African penguins are in danger now. There are only about 52,000 left in the wild. One problem is that they are losing their homes. Other problems include humans picking penguin eggs for sale, competing with humans for fish, and facing the oil pollution in the ocean. 根据短文内容，回答下列问题。 1．Where do African penguins live? 2．What do African penguins spend most of the day doing? 3．How long do the baby penguins stay in the holes? 4．What animals will eat African penguins on land? 5．How many African penguins are there in the wild? The WWF (世界自然基金会) has warned that climate change is threatening (威胁) the life of the snow leopards (雪豹) in the Himalayas (喜马拉雅山脉). It says rising temperatures cause the natural living places of the big cat to the point that snow leopards could die out. In a new report, it says that up to a third of the areas on the mountain where the snow leopards live could become uninhabitable (不宜居住的). Lots of plants and food the animals need could disappear in warmer temperatures. The WWF said, “The Himalayas area will face danger if we choose not to care about climate change...We will lose the snow leopard.” It isn’t just climate change that is making a serious threat to the future of the snow leopard. Many activities from humans are also adding to the dangers the animals face. Snow leopards are highly needed for their fur and body parts. People are killing the animals for money. The snow leopards are also being killed by farmers when they are trying to protect their animals. As the natural food of the snow leopards is decreasing, the animals are going into human areas to kill farm animals. The result is that the farmers shoot the snow leopards. The WWF reported this result on Friday, which was the first International Snow Leopard Day. 根据语篇内容，回答下列问题。(不超过8个词) 1．Where is climate change threatening the life of the snow leopard? 2．What causes the natural living places of the big cat to the point that snow leopards could die out? 3．How could a third of the areas on the mountain where the leopards live become in the new report? 4．What are people killing the animals for? 5．When did the WWF report the result? In Africa, hippos live in the rivers. One day, Karen walked along a river. She counted the hippos. There were not as many hippos as there had been. It hadn’t rained for a long time. Now there was a bad drought and the river was drying up. The animals that lived near this river had no water or grass. Many of them were dying. People were trying to help other animals. But no one was helping the hippos. The hippos were starving (挨饿). They were coming out of the river to look for food. There was nothing for them to eat. Karen put food in the river. Then, she waited. Hippos are not used to being fed by people. She didn’t know what they would do. The hippos, however, were so hungry that they ate the food. Karen made waterholes, but the river dried up more. So, hippo families had to share one waterhole. Sharing was a problem. The hippo families were not good at sharing. The big bulls began to fight with each other. A hippo was killed in the fight. Karen needed to do something. She wrote letters to people asking for help. Many people sent money to her. Karen had enough money to build a dam (水坝). Now, the hippos had their own space. Karen has watched and taken care of hippos for many years. She knows a lot about them. It is strange, but hippos like licking crocodiles. She has seen hippos pulling prey off crocodiles, too. Sometimes Karen takes people to see the hippos. She tells them that if a hippo charges, they must run fast and climb a tree! Hippos can be very dangerous, but they are important. Their big bodies make tracks (足迹) on land. The tracks help other animals to find the waterholes. Hippos keep the grass short. This helps to make a fire break. Hippos need the rivers. And, the world needs hippos. 1．Why were the hippos starving? 2．What did Karen do to help the hippos at first? 3．How did Karen get the money to build a dam? 4．Why are hippos important for the environment? 5．What should we do to protect the animals? 8 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 13 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
