Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2024·黄冈中学高二期末)In his new book The Journeys of Trees，science writer Zach St.George explores an extremely slow migration，as forests move inch by inch to more hospitable(适宜的)places.As old trees die and new ones grow up，the forest is—ever so slightly—moving，he writes.“Through the fossils that ancient forests left behind，scientists can track their movement.They move back and forth across continents，like migrating birds or whales.” This has happened over thousands of years，and climate change tends to be the driving force pushing and pulling forests around the globe.Of course，today，climate change is speeding up，and trees can't keep pace.Take California as an example: It's getting hotter and drier and scientists estimate that before too long，Joshua Tree National Park may not be able to sustain Joshua trees.St.George describes a similar threat to Sequoia National Park，during California's long and severe drought a few years back. Scientists worried that maybe Sequoia National Park would no longer be the place for giant sequoias(红杉).St.George thinks at some point we will lose these ancient trees and we will have to think about what we do with the places.Do we plant new ones somewhere else? This is known as “assisted migration” humans plant trees in other places where they're more likely to grow well.But this process carries risks-people can accidentally introduce insects and diseases to new places，where they may wipe out entire native populations.So，St.George writes，there's a debate among conservationists and foresters today: Should humans help the trees escape? “I think there are going to be instances where people are probably going to step in and help species move to places where they'll be more suitable in the future，” St.George says.“And I met a lot of people in the process who have felt sorry about what has been lost and what will be lost and are still continuing to try，do good and work towards a better future.” [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。科学作家Zach St.George 在他的新书中描述到森林正在一点一点地向更适宜它们生长的地方迁移。 1．What does the underlined word “They” in paragraph 1 refer to? A．Animals. B．Fossils. C．Scientists. D．Forests. 解析　代词指代题。根据画线词前的“As old trees die and new ones grow up...scientists can track their movement.”和画线词所在句“They move back and forth across continents，like migrating birds or whales.”可知，森林正在移动，科学家通过远古森林留下的化石可以追踪森林的移动，由此可知，“They”代指上文提到的森林。 答案　D 2．Why is Sequoia National Park mentioned? A．To confirm the problem of the loss of tree species is serious. B．To argue that humans should be responsible for the loss of trees. C．To explain that climate change results in the migration of forests. D．To prove forests can slow down the process of climate change. 解析　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“This has happened...pushing and pulling forests around the globe.”可知，气候变化通常是森林迁移的推动力。结合“Take California as an example”可推知，文章提到美洲红杉国家公园是为了解释气候变化导致森林迁移。 答案　C 3．What can be inferred about assisted migration? A．It can prevent the trees escaping. B．It can promote biological diversity. C．It may help to protect the forests. D．It may affect species in new places. 解析　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“This is known as‘assisted migration’．..where they may wipe out entire native populations.”可推知，协助迁移可能会影响到新地方的物种。 答案　D 4．What is St.George's attitude to assisted migration? A．Supportive. B．Doubtful. C．Ambiguous. D．Intolerant. 解析　观点态度题。根据第三段中的“So，St.George writes，there's a debate among conservationists and foresters today: Should humans help the trees escape？”和最后一段中的“I think there are going...where they'll be more suitable in the future” “And I met a lot of people in the process...work towards a better future.”可知，St.George对协助迁移是支持的。 答案　A B Heavy traffic doesn't stop big mammals like bears from crossing highways—nor does it keep smaller creatures from being squished (压扁) by cars.In just two years along one highway in Utah，more than 100 animals were killed in traffic accidents.In the United States，there are 21 endangered species whose survival is threatened by traffic accidents. However，there's one solution that's been effective in decreasing crashes between cars and animals crossing the road: wildlife under-and-overpasses.Looking much like a regular overpass for cars，but decorated with native plants，they aren't particularly noticeable unless you know what you're looking for.The drivers may not be able to see the undercrossings，which pass beneath highways to assist shyer and smaller animals.But they are helping countless species，from golden monkeys in Brazil to water voles in London. Washington State is one of the latest to join in.Construction on its first wildlife bridge began in 2015 over Interstate 90 (I-90 )，which runs from Seattle to Boston.Along with six underpasses built since 2013，these crossings are the first set.These passes will allow black bears and mountain lions to pass through what was once an impenetrable(不能通过) road. These wildlife crossings aren't just about saving individual animals—they're about species survival，too.I-90 is an economically important east-west lifeline in the state.But many of the animals mostly want to move from north to south.Those animals on the south of the highway also got trapped in an island.Inbreeding(近亲繁殖) became a problem.Localized extinction happens if they don't have genetic variability.The Snoqualmie overpass helps reconnect these isolated populations.I-90's underpasses are quite important in connecting waterways and species. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。为野生动物专门设计的天桥与地下通道，作为解决公路上汽车与动物碰撞事故的一种有效方案，正帮助保护着物种的多样性。 5．What's the purpose of paragraph 1? A．To raise awareness of the danger of overspeeding. B．To draw people's attention to the behavior of wildlife. C．To introduce the following method to protect animals. D．To show the results of wildlife protection through data. 解析　推理判断题。第一段内容指出了动物的生存受到交通事故的威胁，第二段首句指出野生动物天桥和地下通道可以有效地减少汽车和穿越公路的动物的碰撞，由此可推断第一段的目的是引出第二段的保护动物的方式。故选C。 答案　C 6．How can we reduce the traffic accidents involving wildlife? A．By making drivers notice the animals. B．By building highway crossings for animals. C．By looking for irregular passes for cars. D．By keeping small animals away from highways. 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However，there's one solution...wildlife under-and-overpasses.”可知，通过为动物修建天桥和地下通道可以减少涉及动物的交通事故。故选B。 答案　B 7．Why are wildlife crossings over I-90 important for species to survive? A．They can protect native plants for animals. B．They are important in building wildlife reserves. C．They can help animals trapped in the island on the north. D．They can prevent species from dying out for lacking genetic variety. 解析　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Those animals on the south of the highway...in connecting waterways and species.”可知，90号州际公路的野生动物通道对于种族存活是非常重要的，因为它们将防止物种因缺乏遗传多样性而灭绝。故选D。 答案　D 8．What is the author's attitude towards wildlife crossings? A．Unconcerned. B．Doubtful. C．Cautious. D．Favorable. 解析　考查观点态度。根据最后一段中的“These wildlife crossings...species survival，too.”及“The Snoqualmie overpass helps reconnect these isolated populations.”可知，作者指出了野生动物通道对动物有益，应是持支持的态度。故选D。 答案　D Ⅱ.完形填空 Returning home from a fortnight's holiday，we noticed there had been a lot of rain in our area.As I was checking out some pole holes that my husband，Peter，had 1 ，I noticed that they were a quarter 2 with rain.I was surprised to see that a little hedgehog(刺猬) had 3 into one of them.
