Ⅰ.阅读理解 A On a journey to the little-known Northeast region of India，we discover “a rare creature”： the “Forest Man of India”．Nearly every day for almost 40 years now，Jadav Payeng，a local farmer，has risen before dawn to cross the river on his boat；then he begins the daily two-mile journey to his vegetable farm and conducts his life's mission: reviving(复苏) the ecosystem here. When Payeng was a boy，the river island of Majuli was attached to the mainland.Over the past several decades，erosion from the powerful river waters of the Brahmaputra River has gradually cut it off from the mainland.“Earlier，this was all sand.No trees，no grass—nothing was here.” Today fields of tall grasses stretch into the distance.Along with bright green plains dotted with cows，cotton trees stand straight in rows as far as the eye can see. Payeng set about planting here in 1979，after unexpectedly seeing some dead snakes piled on the sand.“When I saw that，I thought even we humans will have to die this way in the heat.It struck me，” he said.Payeng sought no permission to plant the forest.He just grew it，carrying on his tribe's tradition of honoring nature. The dense forest now covers an area of more than 1，300 acres.He is delighted that wild elephants cross the shallow river waters to walk around in his forest.Besides elephants，the home is filled with deer，monkeys，tigers and a wide variety of birds.“It's not as if I did it alone，” says the self-styled naturalist.“You plant one or two trees，and they have to seed.And once they seed，the wind knows how to plant them，the birds here know how to sow them，cows know，elephants know，even the Brahmaputra River knows.The entire ecosystem knows.” Payeng has single-handedly changed the landscape.When asked how he has sustained his passion，Payeng strikes a respectful tone，“Nature gives me inspiration.It gives me power.As long as it survives，I survive.” [语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Jadav Payeng在Majuli通过不断种树，慢慢恢复了当地的生态系统。 1．What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A．How Majuli island got its name. B．How Majuli has changed over time. C．Why there was all sand on Majuli earlier. D．What Payeng has done in the past 40 years. 解析　段落大意题。根据第二段内容可知，早些时候，Majuli这个地方全是沙子，没有树，也没有草，什么都没有。如今，一片片高高的草丛一直延伸到远方。由此可知，本段主要讲的是Majuli这些年来所发生的变化。故选B。 答案　B 2．What made Payeng start planting trees? A．The sight of dead snakes. B．The permission of the tribe. C．The tradition of respecting nature. D．The mission of reviving the ecosystem. 解析　细书理解题。根据第三段中的“Payeng set about planting...on the sand”可知，Payeng意外地看到一些死蛇堆在沙滩上，并由此联想到人类以后可能会面临的处境，因此他开始在这里种树。故选A。 答案　A 3．What can we learn from paragraph 4? A．The ecosystem is recovering. B．Payeng takes elephants to his forest. C．The forest is home to all wild animals. D．Payeng plants the trees with others' help. 解析　推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知，这片茂密的森林现在占地面积超过1300 英亩，野象穿过浅浅的河水在他的森林里走来走去。除了野象，这里还有鹿、猴子、老虎和各种各样的鸟类。由此可推知，这里的生态系统在不断地恢复。故选A。 答案　A 4．What can be the best title of the text? A．An Impressive Forest B．A Balanced Ecosystem C．A Lifetime of Planting Trees D．An Effort of Saving Rare Creatures 解析　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了Payeng在Majuli通过不断种树，慢慢地恢复了当地的生态系统。结合选项可知，C项“A Lifetime of Planting Trees”最能概括文章主旨，故选C。 答案　C B European rabbits might not be much to look at.They have a grayish-brown coat，small ears，and relatively short legs.But these ordinary animals are a keystone species that plays an essential role in holding many ecosystems together in the United Kingdom，according to new research. European rabbits live in grass and heathland habitats.They are somewhat picky eaters.They scratch (抓) and dig holes，disturbing the ground and brush while they look for desirable food.These movements and how they disturb the ground help the ecosystem. “Their scratching and digging activities create areas of bare soil which rare plants and invertebrates (无脊椎动物) require，” rabbit expert Diana Bell of the University of East Anglia's School of Biology tells Treehugger. Combined with all their digging and scratching，rabbits also contribute nutrients to the soil when they leave their waste on the soil.Researchers have found that this activity benefits lowland grassland，heath，and dune(沙丘) habitats，which helps maintain beneficial conditions for many mosses，lichens，plants，insects，and bird species.“Without the help of rabbits，many of these species would have to leave the area or might even die out，” researchers say. But European rabbits are facing a crisis.Due to threats such as disease，habitat loss，predators，and hunting，the animals are classified as endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in their native region. One disease called myxomatosis is an insect-spread virus from South America that was intentionally introduced by a farmer in France in the mid-1950s to control the rabbit population.About 90% of European rabbits died during early outbreaks and the disease continues to affect rabbit populations in this area. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了欧洲兔在生态系统中的重要作用以及欧洲兔所面临的危险。 5．Why do European rabbits scratch and dig holes? A．To find food. B．To loosen the soil. C．To hide their waste. D．To protect themselves. 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They scratch(抓)...look for desirable food.”可知，欧洲兔刨地或挖洞是在找食物。 答案　A 6．What can we infer from the 4th paragraph? A．Birds are superior to plants and insects. B．The species in an ecosystem are separated. C．Some species depend on rabbits to survive. D．Rabbits will die out without lowland grassland. 解析　推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Without the help of rabbits...even die out”可知，没有欧洲兔的帮助，上文列举的物种中的许多将不得不离开该地区，甚至可能灭绝。由此可推知，一些物种依靠欧洲兔生存。 答案　C 7．What contributed to the sharp reduction of rabbits in the 1950s? A．Hunting. B．A disease. C．Predators. D．Habitat loss. 解析　细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知，20世纪50 年代中期，法国的一个农民有意引入了一种疾病以控制欧洲兔的数量，在这种疾病暴发初期，大约90%的欧洲兔死亡，故选B。 答案　B 8．What will the author probably talk about next? A．How to train rabbits. B．How to hunt rabbits. C．How to restore rabbits. D．How to control rabbits. 解析　推理判断题。本文前半部分讲述了欧洲兔在生态环境中起到的积极作用，最后提到欧洲兔数量的减少以及现在所面临的危险。由此可推知，接下来作者很可能要谈论如何保护欧洲兔，恢复欧洲兔的种群。故选C。 答案　C Ⅱ.七选五 (2024·南昌二中高二期末)Cities are diverse ecosystems.In addition to visitors from the wild，a large number of species share our urban areas.As our cities spread，we need to think about what it is like for other species to have human neighbors. Cities are built for humans. 1 For example，most city parks are kept neat and tidy so that humans will find them beautiful.But when we cut grass or plant flowers，we destroy natural habitats. 2 When a bridge in Austin，Texas was repaired，engineers added small gaps running along the length of its bottom.This made a good home for bats(蝙蝠)，and soon the bridge was the home of thousands of bats. 3 Now，they have come to value their winged neighbors.The bats are a tourist attraction，and they eat lots of bugs every night. There are also structures built with the aim of bringing wildlife into the city.The Olympic Forest Park in Beijing is a good example.The park uses native plants and creates open，natural spaces for wildlife.The result is a zone in Beijing with over 160 species of birds.In many ways，the park is the opposite of a zoo. 4 If we learn to share our space，we can become better neighbors to the wildlife around us. 5 Our own future will be endangered too. A．They are built to protect birds. B．Our actions sometimes help other species. C．If we do not，more species will become extinct. D．They do not always provide suitable habitats for wildlife. E．Instead of being kept in cages，wildlife can move about freely. F．They would sit on it and their droppings would fall into the water. G．At first，people were afraid of the bats and tried to get rid of them. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇议论文。文章介绍了作者对人类城市与野生动物之间的关系的思考。 1．解析　空前说城市是为人类建造的，空后说明城市公园会破坏天然栖息地，故D项“它们不总是为野生动物提供适宜的栖息地”符合语境。D项中的They指代空前的Cities。 答案　D 2．解析　本段通过一座桥的例子来说明我们的行为有时候会帮助到其他物种。空处为本段主旨句，故B项符合语境。 答案　B 3．解析　空后一句讲现在，他们开始重视他们有翅膀的邻居。根据空后的 Now 可以判断空处与后文内容形成时间上的对照，故选G。 答案　G 4．解析　根据空前的“In many ways，the park is the opposite of a zoo.”可知，空后应介绍这个公园与动物园相反的地方，故E项符合语境。 答案　E 5．解析　空前一句谈及人类与野生动物共享城市空间的好处，空后一句的内容与空前一句形成对比，且根据空后的 too可知，C项符合题意。C项中的extinct 与空后的 endangered为同义词复现。 答案　C Ⅲ.语法填空 (2024·辽宁葫芦岛四校期中联考)Water shortage is one of the 1. (great) crises we are facing today，with two thirds of the global population living in areas 2. water is rare for a month or more every year.There are two contributing factors to this problem: the increasing global demand 3. water，and unsustainable means by which these demands are being met.Yet，despite global water usage already exploding threefold (三倍地) over the last fifty years，it 4. (predict) that there will be a further 60%～100% increase in water usage by 2050. This is not just 5. matter of turning the tap off when you brush your teeth，6. (decrease) your showers to 3 minutes，or sharing the washing-load with your flatmates.In fact，daily activities of humans make up less than 4% of our total water consumption，with the 7. (remain) 96% falling into two “invisible” categories: the industrial production of household items and the production of food.Astonishingly，69% of our total daily water consumption comes from the 8. (grow) and production of food alone. 9． (unfortunate)，there is no single go-to reference book for the exact number of litres used in the production of any individual food item.This is a hard pill to swallow，for we have other factors 10.

[语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了水资源短缺是我们今天面临的最大危机之一及造成水资源短缺的两个因素，并指出并不是日常生活中节约用水就能解决问题，我们每天总用水量的96%来自家居用品的生产和食品的生产。 1．解析　考查形容词最高级。句意：水资源短缺是我们今天面临的最大危机之一，全球三分之二的人口生活在每年缺水一个月或更长时间的地区。根据该空前的one of the可知，此处应该用形容词最高级，构成“one of the＋形容词最高级＋复数名词”结构，表示“最……的……之一”。故填greatest。 答案　greatest 2．解析　考查定语从句。句意同上。空前为表示地点的名词areas，空后内容为主系表结构，句子主干完整，与空前的areas可构成“water is rare for a month or more every year”，由此推断空处引导定语从句，在从句中作地点状语，先行词为areas，所以此处应用关系副词where引导定语从句。 答案　where 3．解析　考查介词和搭配。句意：造成这一问题的因素有两个：全球不断增加的对水的需求以及为了满足这些需求而采取的不可持续的手段。the demand for意为“对……的需求”，为固定搭配。故填for。 答案　for 4．解析　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：然而，尽管全球用水量在过去五十年中已经突增了三倍，但据预测，到2050年，全球用水量将进一步增长60%到100%。分析句子结构可知，设空处作谓语，it是形式主语，that引导的从句是真正的主语，和动词predict之间是动宾关系，句子描述一个事实，应用一般现在时。主语是it，故填is predicted。 答案　is predicted 5．解析　考查不定冠词和搭配。句意：这不仅仅是刷牙时关上水龙头，把洗澡时间缩短到3分钟，或者和你的室友一起洗衣服的问题。a matter of...是固定短语，意为“一个……的问题”。故填a。 答案　a 6．解析　考查非谓语动词。设空处与turning和sharing并列，都在短语a matter of后作介词of的宾语，都应用动名词形式。故填decreasing。 答案　decreasing 7．解析　考查形容词。句意：事实上，人类的日常活动只占我们总用水量的不到4%，剩下的96%属于两个“看不见的”类别：家居用品的工业生产和食品的生产。设空处修饰96%，96%后省略了“of our total water consumption”，且由语境可知设空处表示“剩下的”，应用形容词remaining。 答案　remaining 8．解析　考查名词。句意：令人惊讶的是，我们每天总用水量的69%仅来自食物的生长和生产。根据该空前的冠词the可知，此处要用名词，与名词production并列。故填growth。 答案　growth 9．解析　考查副词。句意：不幸的是，对于生产任何一种食品所使用的(水的)确切升数，没有一本现成的参考书(可供参考)。此处应用副词作状语，修饰整个句子，首字母应大写。故填Unfortunately。 答案　Unfortunately 10．解析　考查动词不定式。句意：这是一颗难以下咽的药丸，因为在权衡每种食物选择的好处时，我们还有其他因素要考虑：味道、价钱和便利性。分析句子结构可知，此处应用动词不定式作后置定语。故填to consider。 答案　to consider 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
