She 2 watching her pets and reading books about animals.Her dream was to go to 3 to see wild animals in their natural home. When she was in her twenties, Goodall got a wonderful 4 —a friend invited her to visit Africa. There, she met Dr.Louis Leakey,a famous scientist who strongly advised her to study animals. This was the beginning of her 5 work with chimpanzees. For many years, Goodall lived in the forests of Africa, carefully watching and 6 chimpanzees. She was the first scientist to give names to the chimpanzees instead of using numbers.Before her, scientists didn't realize that each chimpanzee had its own personality. Her most exciting discovery was that chimpanzees could 7 and use tools—something only humans were thought to do before. When Goodall saw chimpanzees becoming endangered, she changed her work from research to 8 . She began traveling around the world, teaching young people about why it's important to care for nature and wildlife. Goodall's life wasn't always 9 . She faced many challenges living in the forest,but she never gave up. 10 , she always searched for a solution to every problem she met. “Each of us can make a difference in the world.

Many land animals walk, like people. Some land animals slither (蜿蜒地滑动), like snakes. Water animals, such as fish, can swim. Birds, insects (昆虫) and bats are animals that can fly. Let’s learn more about how birds, insects and bats fly around. Most birds have wings (翅膀) and feathers (羽毛). Their feathers are light and soft. Wings and feathers let birds fly. Most birds can fly. Many birds fly around every year. They have two homes. They stay in one place in summer. When it gets cold, they fly to a warmer place in winter. These birds may fly a long, long way to their winter homes. Almost all insects have six legs. They fly around with the help of their wings. For example, flies have one pair of wings. However, not every insect has one pair of wings. For example, bees have two pairs of wings. Bats have wings and they can fly around. However, bats are not birds. They are not insects, either. Bats are mammals, like dogs, cats and people. They give birth to babies, not eggs. And they feed their babies on milk. Most bats sleep during the day and fly around at night. They look for food at night. 根据短文内容，选择正确答案。 1．The first paragraph mentions ________ ways about how animals get around. A．two B．three C．four D．five 2．After reading the second paragraph, we can know ________. A．how long birds’ wings are B．when birds grow new feathers C．why many birds have two homes D．how many birds there are in the world 3．The underlined word “mammals” in this passage means ________ in Chinese.

A．A story book B．A diary C．A magazine about nature D．A newspaper about health Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey. How do they make it? Scientific research shows that they are born with certain unusual abilities for direction. A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid (避免) getting lost. They can go as far as 110 metres and bring food home. These ants live in the open desert, so they have nothing to guide them along the way. It’s like someone walking six kilometres through a dark forest. Some fish have an unbelievable sense of smell. They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large sea area. Some sea birds have a similar ability. They are able to make a smell map of their flying area. Some animals can sense the earth’s magnetic field (磁场), while humans can’t. This magnetic field guides a certain kind of fish when they swim a long way to a place and then back. How can this kind of fish do that? It is still a mystery. Scientists have no good answers yet. However, animals with such unusual abilities still have difficulty dealing with environmental changes caused by human activities. For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city lights are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply turn off some lights at night. Clearly, one small act of humans may mean a lot to animals. 1．How can a certain kind of ants find their way? A．By imagining the way. B．By counting their steps. C．By bringing food together. D．By drawing a map. 2．According to the writer, how can humans help many birds find directions at night? A．We can help them find the earth’s magnetic field. B．We can help them make some smell maps. C．We can guide them along the way. D．We can turn off some lights at night. 3．What’s the structure of the text? A．①/②③/④⑤ B．①②/③④/⑤ C．①/②③④/⑤ D．①②③/④/⑤ 4．Where might you see the text? A．In a magazine about science. B．In a story book about fish. C．In the maths textbook. D．In an English dictionary. Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey.

In a fascinating new study, researchers discovered that cats use 276 different facial expressions to show their feelings—far more than we have ever imagined! ①________ The scientists visited a local cat cafe in Los Angeles for over several months to observe (观察) 53 cats. They recorded 194 minutes of videos, carefully watching how the cats communicate with each other. Using a special system called FACS (Facial Action Coding System), which is normally used to study human expressions, they identified 26 unique facial movements in cats. These movements—like licking (舔) their nose, opening their mouth, or widening their pupils (the black part of their eyes)—combine in different ways to create all those expressions. They also found cats use 26 of these facial movements in total, which can be mixed to express how they are feeling. Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44. ②________ Out of the expressions they recorded, 45% were friendly and 37% were angry. “A friendly cat moves its ears and whiskers forward while closing its eyes slowly—almost like a smile! However, an angry cat often flattens its ears to its head, makes its pupils smaller and licks its lips,” said the team. ③________ Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding. They also hope that the research could help animal shelters (收容所) improve the way they look after the cats. Some pet owners even suggest the researchers develop an app that scans a cat’s face to explain its mood—like a “cat translator”. Next time your cat stares at you, pay attention—it might be “talking” with its face! 1．How does the writer start the passage? A．By giving numbers. B．By telling a story. C．By showing some facts. D．By asking a question. 2．Which of the following uses the most facial movements? A．Cats. B．Humans. C．Dogs. D．Tigers. 3．Match the title with each part. a. Why Does This Matter?     b. Friendly Faces or Angry Faces? c. How Did They Study Cats?     d. Future Research on Cat Communication. A．①-a ②-b ③-d B．①-b ②-c ③-a C．①-c ②-b ③-d D．①-d ②-b ③-c 4．What might the scientists do next? A．Keep on studying to know more about cats. B．Find out why the cats try to communicate with each other. C．Build an animal shelter to look after cats. D．Use an app to study cats’ expressions. 5．What would be the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． To get a better idea of how far bees usually travel, researchers at Penn State worked to develop a way to follow bees. Bees are usually studied in a lab or near one. But the researchers wanted to develop a system that could work anywhere and be used by anyone. Researchers worked with engineers to create “AprilTags”, which are similar to QR codes (二维码). These codes are easy for cameras to find and read, even when the light isn’t good. They are smaller than a coin, and can be stuck on the back of bees without causing any harm. But sticking thousands of “AprilTags” was a lot of work. The researchers mainly studied young bees, tagging (贴标签) 600 of them every two weeks. Over the spring and summer, the researchers tagged over 32,000 bees spread across six different hives (蜂箱). By putting a camera powered by the sun and a tiny computer above the door to each hive, the researchers could follow the tagged bees. They could show when each bee left the hive and when it returned. The new system gave the researchers a lot of information about the bees’ flying. They found that most trips outside the hive took between one and four minutes. The researchers thought these short trips were used for quick jobs like checking the weather. Even longer trips were shorter than 20 minutes. But about 34% of the bees took trips that lasted longer than two hours. The researchers said this could show that the bees were making longer trips to collect food. The researchers noticed that the bees spent more time out collecting when there were fewer flowers around. Researchers know that bees use a special “dance” to communicate with each other about where to collect food. Now the researchers want to see how their new findings match up with the special dance. They plan to teach beekeepers and other researchers how to use their system. 1．What are the advantages (优点) of “AprilTags” according to the passage? ①Easy to read. ②Safe to bees.     ③Cheap to buy.     ④Small in size. ⑤Shiny in the dark. A．①②③ B．①②④ C．①③⑤ D．②④⑤ 2．What does “They” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．The researchers. B．The tagged bees. C．Six different hives. D．Cameras and computers. 3．What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A．Bees change their flying time according to the environment. B．Short trips were used for dangerous jobs like checking weather. C．About 66% of the bees took short trips between 1 and 4 minutes. D．Young bees were chosen because they use the special dance better. 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．Following Young Bees with Cameras B．Creating New Codes with Computers C．Exploring Bees’ Flying with “AprilTags” D．Helping Beekeepers with New Technology 四、任务型阅读 根据短文内容，按要求回答问题。 As time goes by, more and more wild animals are in great danger and some even died out. In order to make money, some people kill too many animals and sell their fur in the shopping centre and their meat to restaurants in the world. Tibetan antelopes usually live in groups. Their wool (羊毛) is warm and fine, so people can use it to make expensive clothes. That’s why so many antelopes are killed. Although people can get the wool without killing the animals, they simply kill them before taking the wool. The number of Tibetan antelopes is dropping year by year. And there are fewer than 75,000 Tibetan antelopes left in the world now. As human beings continue to develop (发展), animals’ homes are becoming fewer and fewer. A long time ago, thylacines lived in the wild and they were very happy and free. But as humans made the wild land become their own farms, thylacines didn’t have enough food to eat or places to live in. So they started to eat farmers’ animals. Farmers hated thylacines very much and then they killed hundreds of them. Some animals get endangered or die out because of the changes of the environment. White-coated weasels live in a forest in Poland. They have white fur in winter. Their white fur is the same colour as snow so other animals have a hard time finding them. But scientists found that between 1997 and 2007, the number of snowy days in the weasels’ environment dropped from 80 days to 40 days. Many of the white-coated weasels were eaten by other animals. 1．What do people kill many Tibetan antelopes for? 2．Why did farmers hate thylacines very much? 3．How does the white fur of white-coated weasels help them keep safe? 4．What are the TWO reasons for some animals getting endangered or dying out from this passage? 5．What can we students do to protect wild animals in our daily life? 阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。 Imagine a world with no more wild animals: no elephants, no tigers or lions. To most people, that thought is too terrible. So they are doing something about it. Betty is one of them. Being surrounded by wild animals—feeding them and caring for them—is all Betty has wanted to do with her life. And that is exactly what she does! Betty is the human “mother” to the 500 animals that live on her family wildlife farm in San. Antonio, Texas. On the farm, she cares for animals from all over the world. She says she loves them all. However, two giraffes (长颈鹿) take up a special place in her heart. The population of giraffes in the wild has declined by 80% in the last 15 years. “I’m so glad to get help from five wildlife researchers. All our hard work helps protect giraffes living in the wild.” Besides her animal caring, Betty also holds a monthly class, where she teaches school children about animals. Betty also opens the farm to the public. Visitors not only learn about the animals, they can also get close to them. For animals, people are part of their natural environment. The farm is a conservation (保护) area, an educational center and an animal park. As the animals walk peacefully around the grounds, it is easy to forget that San Antonio, a busy city, is just a few minutes away. 1．What does Betty do to the animals on her family wildlife farm? 2．Why do two giraffes take up a special place in Betty’s heart? 3．How often does Betty teach school children about animals? 4．What action can we take to protect the endangered giraffes after reading the text?

Let’s learn more about how birds, insects and bats fly around. Most birds have wings (翅膀) and feathers (羽毛). Their feathers are light and soft. Wings and feathers let birds fly. Most birds can fly. Many birds fly around every year. They have two homes. They stay in one place in summer. When it gets cold, they fly to a warmer place in winter. These birds may fly a long, long way to their winter homes. Almost all insects have six legs. They fly around with the help of their wings. For example, flies have one pair of wings. However, not every insect has one pair of wings. For example, bees have two pairs of wings. Bats have wings and they can fly around. However, bats are not birds. They are not insects, either. Bats are mammals, like dogs, cats and people. They give birth to babies, not eggs. And they feed their babies on milk. Most bats sleep during the day and fly around at night. They look for food at night. 根据短文内容，选择正确答案。 1．The first paragraph mentions ________ ways about how animals get around. A．two B．three C．four D．five 2．After reading the second paragraph, we can know ________. A．how long birds’ wings are B．when birds grow new feathers C．why many birds have two homes D．how many birds there are in the world 3．The underlined word “mammals” in this passage means ________ in Chinese. A．爬行动物 B．哺乳动物 C．两栖动物 D．食肉动物 4．The structure of the passage may be ________. A． B． C． D． 5．Where does the passage come from? A．A story book B．A diary C．A magazine about nature D．A newspaper about health 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．B 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了动物的不同移动方式，特别是鸟类、昆虫和蝙蝠的飞行能力。 1．细节理解题。根据“Animals get around in different ways. Many land animals walk, like people. Some land animals slither (蜿蜒地滑动), like snakes. Water animals, such as fish, can swim. Birds, insects (昆虫) and bats are animals that can fly.”可知，文中提到了动物行走、爬行、游泳和飞行四种移动方式。故选C。 2．推理判断题。根据“They have two homes. They stay in one place in summer. When it gets cold, they fly to a warmer place in winter. These birds may fly a long, long way to their winter homes.”可知，许多鸟夏天待在一个地方，冬天飞到气候温暖的地方，因此它们有两个“家”。故本段告诉我们“为什么很多鸟会有两个家？”。故选C。 3．词句猜测题。根据“Bats are mammals, like dogs, cats and people.”可知，蝙蝠是哺乳动物，像狗、猫和人类一样，故划线单词“mammals”意为“哺乳动物”。故选B。 4．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段总述动物的不同移动方式，第二、三、四段分别介绍鸟、昆虫和蝙蝠的飞行特征，因此整体结构呈“总分”结构。故选D。 5．推理判断题。本文内容围绕自然界中的动物特点展开，最有可能来自“自然类杂志”。故选C。 Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey. How do they make it? Scientific research shows that they are born with certain unusual abilities for direction. A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid (避免) getting lost. They can go as far as 110 metres and bring food home. These ants live in the open desert, so they have nothing to guide them along the way. It’s like someone walking six kilometres through a dark forest. Some fish have an unbelievable sense of smell. They can smell even a single drop of their home water in a large sea area. Some sea birds have a similar ability. They are able to make a smell map of their flying area. Some animals can sense the earth’s magnetic field (磁场), while humans can’t. This magnetic field guides a certain kind of fish when they swim a long way to a place and then back. How can this kind of fish do that? It is still a mystery. Scientists have no good answers yet. However, animals with such unusual abilities still have difficulty dealing with environmental changes caused by human activities. For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city lights are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply turn off some lights at night. Clearly, one small act of humans may mean a lot to animals. 1．How can a certain kind of ants find their way? A．By imagining the way. B．By counting their steps. C．By bringing food together. D．By drawing a map. 2．According to the writer, how can humans help many birds find directions at night? A．We can help them find the earth’s magnetic field. B．We can help them make some smell maps. C．We can guide them along the way. D．We can turn off some lights at night. 3．What’s the structure of the text? A．①/②③/④⑤ B．①②/③④/⑤ C．①/②③④/⑤ D．①②③/④/⑤ 4．Where might you see the text? A．In a magazine about science. B．In a story book about fish. C．In the maths textbook. D．In an English dictionary. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了某些动物如何利用独特的导航能力找到回家的路，以及人类活动对它们的影响。 1．细节理解题。根据文章“A certain kind of ants, for example, can count their steps to avoid getting lost.”可知，某种蚂蚁通过数它们的步数来避免迷路。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据文章“For example, many birds depend on stars for direction, but they get lost easily at night when city lights are kept on all night. To solve this problem, we can simply turn off some lights at night.”可知，人类可以通过在晚上关闭一些灯光来帮助鸟类导航。故选D。 3．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，本文结构为：第一段引入主题，第二至四段分别介绍各种动物的导航能力，第五段讨论人类活动对动物的影响，即本文是总—分—结构。故选C。 4．推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文内容围绕科学现象展开，属于科普类文章，因此最可能出现在科学杂志中。故选A。 Some animals can easily find their way home after a long journey.

How do they make it? Scientific research shows that they are born with certain unusual abilities for direction.”可知，文章开篇提出一些动物在长途旅行后能轻易找到回家的路，接着分别举例说明不同动物（蚂蚁、鱼、海鸟等）独特的方向感能力，所以文章主要是介绍动物的方向感。故选C。 4．推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了不同动物（如蚂蚁、鱼类、海鸟）利用步数计数、嗅觉、感知地球磁场等特殊能力进行导航的机制，同时也指出人类活动造成的环境变化对动物导航能力的影响，并提出简单的改善建议。由此可推测，文章最有可能出现在一份杂志的科学板块。故选B。 Have you ever looked at a cat’s face and wondered what it is thinking? A team of scientists from the University of California might have some answers. In a fascinating new study, researchers discovered that cats use 276 different facial expressions to show their feelings—far more than we have ever imagined! ①________ The scientists visited a local cat cafe in Los Angeles for over several months to observe (观察) 53 cats. They recorded 194 minutes of videos, carefully watching how the cats communicate with each other. Using a special system called FACS (Facial Action Coding System), which is normally used to study human expressions, they identified 26 unique facial movements in cats. These movements—like licking (舔) their nose, opening their mouth, or widening their pupils (the black part of their eyes)—combine in different ways to create all those expressions. They also found cats use 26 of these facial movements in total, which can be mixed to express how they are feeling. Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44. ②________ Out of the expressions they recorded, 45% were friendly and 37% were angry. “A friendly cat moves its ears and whiskers forward while closing its eyes slowly—almost like a smile! However, an angry cat often flattens its ears to its head, makes its pupils smaller and licks its lips,” said the team. ③________ Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding. They also hope that the research could help animal shelters (收容所) improve the way they look after the cats. Some pet owners even suggest the researchers develop an app that scans a cat’s face to explain its mood—like a “cat translator”. Next time your cat stares at you, pay attention—it might be “talking” with its face! 1．How does the writer start the passage? A．By giving numbers. B．By telling a story. C．By showing some facts. D．By asking a question. 2．Which of the following uses the most facial movements? A．Cats. B．Humans. C．Dogs. D．Tigers. 3．Match the title with each part. a. Why Does This Matter?     b. Friendly Faces or Angry Faces? c. How Did They Study Cats?     d. Future Research on Cat Communication. A．①-a ②-b ③-d B．①-b ②-c ③-a C．①-c ②-b ③-d D．①-d ②-b ③-c 4．What might the scientists do next? A．Keep on studying to know more about cats. B．Find out why the cats try to communicate with each other. C．Build an animal shelter to look after cats. D．Use an app to study cats’ expressions. 5．What would be the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．C 4．A 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了加州大学科学家关于猫面部表情的研究，包括研究方法、猫面部表情的分类以及研究的意义和未来计划等。 1．细节理解题。根据“Have you ever looked at a cat’s face and wondered what it is thinking?”可知，作者通过提出问题“你是否曾经看着猫的脸并好奇它在想什么”来开始文章。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“Dogs use 27 facial movements and humans use a total of 44.”可知，人类使用的面部动作最多，共44个，而猫使用26个，狗使用27个，文中未提及老虎。故选B。 3．推理判断题。①处下文主要介绍了科学家们如何研究猫的面部表情，包括观察猫、录制视频、使用FACS系统等，所以①处应匹配标题“How Did They Study Cats?”；②处下文主要介绍了记录的猫的表情中友好和愤怒的比例，以及友好和愤怒的猫的具体面部表现，所以②处应匹配标题“Friendly Faces or Angry Faces?”；③处下文主要介绍了这项研究的意义以及未来的研究计划，所以③处应匹配标题“Future Research on Cat Communication.”。故选C。 4．推理判断题。根据“Although the researchers aren’t sure what the cats were trying to communicate with each other using their faces, they plan to study cats in other places to improve their understanding.”可知，科学家们计划在其他地方继续研究猫，以提高他们的理解，即继续研究以更多地了解猫。故选A。 5．篇章结构题。文章第一段通过提出问题引出主题；第二、三、四段分别介绍了研究方法、猫面部表情的分类以及研究的意义；第五段介绍了未来的研究计划。所以文章结构为总分总，与C选项结构相符。故选C。 To get a better idea of how far bees usually travel, researchers at Penn State worked to develop a way to follow bees. Bees are usually studied in a lab or near one. But the researchers wanted to develop a system that could work anywhere and be used by anyone. Researchers worked with engineers to create “AprilTags”, which are similar to QR codes (二维码). These codes are easy for cameras to find and read, even when the light isn’t good. They are smaller than a coin, and can be stuck on the back of bees without causing any harm. But sticking thousands of “AprilTags” was a lot of work. The researchers mainly studied young bees, tagging (贴标签) 600 of them every two weeks. Over the spring and summer, the researchers tagged over 32,000 bees spread across six different hives (蜂箱). By putting a camera powered by the sun and a tiny computer above the door to each hive, the researchers could follow the tagged bees. They could show when each bee left the hive and when it returned. The new system gave the researchers a lot of information about the bees’ flying. They found that most trips outside the hive took between one and four minutes. The researchers thought these short trips were used for quick jobs like checking the weather. Even longer trips were shorter than 20 minutes. But about 34% of the bees took trips that lasted longer than two hours. The researchers said this could show that the bees were making longer trips to collect food. The researchers noticed that the bees spent more time out collecting when there were fewer flowers around. Researchers know that bees use a special “dance” to communicate with each other about where to collect food. Now the researchers want to see how their new findings match up with the special dance. They plan to teach beekeepers and other researchers how to use their system. 1．What are the advantages (优点) of “AprilTags” according to the passage? ①Easy to read. ②Safe to bees.     ③Cheap to buy.     ④Small in size. ⑤Shiny in the dark. A．①②③ B．①②④ C．①③⑤ D．②④⑤ 2．What does “They” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．The researchers. B．The tagged bees. C．Six different hives. D．Cameras and computers. 3．What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A．Bees change their flying time according to the environment. B．Short trips were used for dangerous jobs like checking weather. C．About 66% of the bees took short trips between 1 and 4 minutes. D．Young bees were chosen because they use the special dance better. 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．Following Young Bees with Cameras B．Creating New Codes with Computers C．Exploring Bees’ Flying with “AprilTags” D．Helping Beekeepers with New Technology 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．A 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讲述了宾夕法尼亚州立大学的研究人员为了更好地了解蜜蜂通常飞行的距离，开发了一种可以追踪蜜蜂的系统，通过使用“AprilTags”标记蜜蜂，并利用摄像头和微型计算机跟踪它们的飞行，获取了大量关于蜜蜂飞行的信息。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“These codes are easy for cameras to find and read, even when the light isn’t good. They are smaller than a coin, and can be stuck on the back of bees without causing any harm.”可知，“AprilTags”的优点包括：易于摄像头发现和读取（即使光线不好）；体积小于硬币，可以贴在蜜蜂背上而不造成任何伤害。因此，优点包括①易于读取、②对蜜蜂安全、④体积小。故选B。 2．词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“By putting a camera powered by the sun and a tiny computer above the door to each hive, the researchers could follow the tagged bees. They could show when each bee left the hive and when it returned.”可知，通过在每个蜂箱门口放置一个太阳能摄像头和一个微型计算机，研究人员可以跟踪被标记的蜜蜂。它们可以显示每只蜜蜂离开蜂箱和返回蜂箱的时间。这里的“They”指代的是前文提到的摄像头和计算机。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据第四段“The researchers noticed that the bees spent more time out collecting when there were fewer flowers around.”可知，研究人员注意到，当周围花朵较少时，蜜蜂会花更多时间外出采集。由此可推断，蜜蜂会根据环境改变飞行时间。故选A。 4．最佳标题题。根据全文内容可知，本文主要介绍了研究人员使用“AprilTags”来追踪和探索蜜蜂的飞行情况。因此，最佳标题应为“Exploring Bees’ Flying with ‘AprilTags’”（使用“AprilTags”探索蜜蜂的飞行）。故选C。 四、任务型阅读 根据短文内容，按要求回答问题。 As time goes by, more and more wild animals are in great danger and some even died out. In order to make money, some people kill too many animals and sell their fur in the shopping centre and their meat to restaurants in the world. Tibetan antelopes usually live in groups. Their wool (羊毛) is warm and fine, so people can use it to make expensive clothes. That’s why so many antelopes are killed. Although people can get the wool without killing the animals, they simply kill them before taking the wool. The number of Tibetan antelopes is dropping year by year. And there are fewer than 75,000 Tibetan antelopes left in the world now. As human beings continue to develop (发展), animals’ homes are becoming fewer and fewer. A long time ago, thylacines lived in the wild and they were very happy and free. But as humans made the wild land become their own farms, thylacines didn’t have enough food to eat or places to live in. So they started to eat farmers’ animals. Farmers hated thylacines very much and then they killed hundreds of them. Some animals get endangered or die out because of the changes of the environment. White-coated weasels live in a forest in Poland. They have white fur in winter. Their white fur is the same colour as snow so other animals have a hard time finding them. But scientists found that between 1997 and 2007, the number of snowy days in the weasels’ environment dropped from 80 days to 40 days. Many of the white-coated weasels were eaten by other animals. 1．What do people kill many Tibetan antelopes for? 2．Why did farmers hate thylacines very much? 3．How does the white fur of white-coated weasels help them keep safe? 4．What are the TWO reasons for some animals getting endangered or dying out from this passage? 5．What can we students do to protect wild animals in our daily life? 【答案】1．For their wool/To make expensive clothes./For making expensive clothes. 2．Because (thylacines didn’t have enough food to eat or places to live in, so) they killed/ate farmers’ animals. 3．Their white fur is the same color as snow, so other animals have a hard time finding them. 4．Humans’ activities/actions/killings and the changes of the environment./People kill animals for the money and the environment changes. 5．We can refuse to buy things made of wild animals’ fur. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述了由于人类活动以及环境变化，越来越多的野生动物处于濒危状态甚至灭绝，介绍了不同动物濒危或灭绝的原因，并呼吁大家保护野生动物。 1．根据第二段中“Their wool (羊毛) is warm and fine, so people can use it to make expensive clothes. That’s why so many antelopes are killed.”可知，藏羚羊的羊毛温暖而细密，人们可以用它来制作昂贵的衣服，这就是人们捕杀这么多藏羚羊的原因。故填For their wool/To make expensive clothes./For making expensive clothes. 2．根据第三段中“But as humans made the wild land become their own farms, thylacines didn’t have enough food to eat or places to live in. So they started to eat farmers’ animals. Farmers hated thylacines very much...”可知，袋狼没有足够的食物吃，也没有地方住，所以它们开始吃农民的动物，因此农民非常讨厌袋狼。故填Because (thylacines didn’t have enough food to eat or places to live in, so) they killed/ate farmers’ animals. 3．根据第四段中“They have white fur in winter. Their white fur is the same colour as snow so other animals have a hard time finding them.”可知，白鼬的白色皮毛和雪的颜色一样，所以其他动物很难找到它们，这有助于它们保持安全。故填Their white fur is the same color as snow, so other animals have a hard time finding them. 4．根据第一段中“In order to make money, some people kill too many animals...”，第三段中“As human beings continue to develop (发展), animals’ homes are becoming fewer and fewer...”以及第四段中“Some animals get endangered or die out because of the changes of the environment.”可知，一些动物濒危或灭绝的两个原因是：人类的活动/捕杀以及环境的变化。故填Humans’ activities/actions/killings and the changes of the environment./People kill animals for the money and the environment changes. 5．本题为开放性试题，言之有理即可，答案可以为“我们可以拒绝购买用野生动物的皮毛制成的东西”，故填We can refuse to buy things made of wild animals’ fur. 阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。 Imagine a world with no more wild animals: no elephants, no tigers or lions. To most people, that thought is too terrible. So they are doing something about it. Betty is one of them. Being surrounded by wild animals—feeding them and caring for them—is all Betty has wanted to do with her life. And that is exactly what she does! Betty is the human “mother” to the 500 animals that live on her family wildlife farm in San. Antonio, Texas. On the farm, she cares for animals from all over the world. She says she loves them all. However, two giraffes (长颈鹿) take up a special place in her heart. The population of giraffes in the wild has declined by 80% in the last 15 years. “I’m so glad to get help from five wildlife researchers. All our hard work helps protect giraffes living in the wild.” Besides her animal caring, Betty also holds a monthly class, where she teaches school children about animals. Betty also opens the farm to the public. Visitors not only learn about the animals, they can also get close to them. For animals, people are part of their natural environment. The farm is a conservation (保护) area, an educational center and an animal park. As the animals walk peacefully around the grounds, it is easy to forget that San Antonio, a busy city, is just a few minutes away. 1．What does Betty do to the animals on her family wildlife farm? 2．Why do two giraffes take up a special place in Betty’s heart? 3．How often does Betty teach school children about animals? 4．What action can we take to protect the endangered giraffes after reading the text? Write 30words or more. 【答案】1．She feeds them and cares for them. 2．Because the population of giraffes in the wild has declined by 80% in the last 15 years. 3．Once a month. 4．First, we can make some posters or advertisements to raise people’s awareness of protecting endangered giraffes. Second, we can make some strict rules to stop people from killing endangered giraffes. Finally, we can set up some nature protecting areas for the endangered giraffes. 【导语】本文主要讲述了Betty对野生动物保护所做出的贡献。 1．根据“Betty is the human ‘mother’ to the 500 animals… On the farm, she cares for animals from all over the world”可知，她照顾农场的动物，并充当它们的人类“母亲”。故填She feeds them and cares for them. 2．根据“The population of giraffes in the wild has declined by 80% in the last 15 years. ‘I’m so glad to get help from five wildlife researchers. All our hard work helps protect giraffes living in the wild.’”可知，这就是两只长颈鹿在她心中占据特殊位置的原因。故填Because the population of giraffes in the wild has declined by 80% in the last 15 years. 3．根据“Betty also holds a monthly class, where she teaches school children about animals”可知，Betty每月举办一次课程教孩子们有关动物的知识，即一个月一次。故填Once a month. 4．答案不唯一，言之有理即可。参考答案为：First, we can make some posters or advertisements to raise people’s awareness of protecting endangered giraffes. Second, we can make some strict rules to stop people from killing endangered giraffes. Finally, we can set up some nature protecting areas for the endangered giraffes. 五、选词填空 阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的单词或短语并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺，意思完整，每个单词或短语限用一次。 thin  save  find  science  move slowly The tiger is called “the king of the forest”.
