But even as tall as they are, whooping cranes weigh only about 15 pounds, because of their hollow （空心的） bones. WHAT’S FOR DINNER? Whooping cranes live in wetlands, wet prairies, and fields. They’re not picky （挑剔的） about their meals—they have a mixed diet and eat small fish, and insects, as well as grains and marsh plants. CALL OF THE WILD Whooping cranes really like to ‘whoop it up’ when they want to attract a mate （伙伴）. They call loudly and do what might look like a crazy dance to be eye—catching. They flap their wings, and move their heads from side to side quickly, jumping up and down. A SPECIAL TRICK These cranes are in danger, but scientists have used some very interesting tricks to help them stay alive. At first, they moved one group of cranes to Florida, but the cranes never learned to migrate （迁徙）. When they got to Florida, they didn’t know how to fly back home. Scientists did all they could do to make the number of the cranes larger, so they used a special trick with another Florida group of cranes. Scientists “taught” the younger cranes to migrate by having them follow a very light airplane from Florida to Wisconsin. After the cranes gave birth to their babies in Florida, they’d follow the plane back to Wisconsin! Some whooping cranes stay in Florida all year round, some fly from Florida to Wisconsin, and others fly from Texas to Canada and back again each year. Whooping Cranes 55 areas A whooping crane is from North America. Looks Whooping cranes can be five feet in 56 . They weigh only about 15 pounds 57 their bones are hollow.

Scientists used a plane to 63 the younger birds from Florida to Wisconsin. Some whooping cranes stay in Florida all year round, while 64 migrate each year. 【答案】 55．Living 56．height 57．because 58．live 59．loud 60．move 61．able 62．more 63．lead 64．others 【分析】本文介绍了美洲白鹤外形、食性、叫声，以及科学家为了保护它们所做的工作。 55．根据“A whooping crane is a large white North American crane famous for its loud call.”可知，美洲白鹤是一种大型的鹤，以其响亮的叫声而闻名。由此可知，北美是美洲白鹤的生活区。故填Living。 56．根据“Whooping cranes can grow up to five feet tall.”可知，美洲白鹤能长到五英尺高，in height高度。故填height。 57．根据“… whooping cranes weigh only about 15 pounds, because of their hollow bones.”可知，美洲白鹤只有15磅重，因为它们的骨头是空心的。故填because。 58．根据“they have a mixed diet and eat small fish, and insects, as well as grains and marsh plants.”可知，它们吃混合食物，吃小鱼、昆虫以及谷物和沼泽植物。由此可知，它们以小鱼、昆虫以及谷物和沼泽植物为食。live on以……为食。故填live。 59．根据“They call loudly and do what might look like a crazy dance to be eye—catching.”可知，它们大声叫喊，跳看似疯狂的舞蹈来吸引眼球。由此可知，它们吸引配偶的目光是通过“大声”叫。故填loud。 60．根据“They flap their wings, and move their heads from side to side quickly, jumping up and down.”可知，它们吸引配偶还通过拍打翅膀，快速地把头左右移动，上下跳跃。故填move。 61．根据“When they got to Florida, they didn’t know how to fly back home.”可知，美洲白鹤迁徙到弗罗里达，它们不能飞回原来的地方。故填able。 62．根据“Scientists did all they could do to make the number of the cranes larger”可知，科学家们想让鹤的数量变得更多。故填more。 63．根据“Scientists “taught” the younger cranes to migrate by having them follow a very light airplane from Florida to Wisconsin.”可知，科学家们“引导”这些年轻的鹤，让它们跟随一架轻型飞机从佛罗里达州迁徙到威斯康星州。故填lead。 64．根据“Some whooping cranes stay in Florida all year round, some fly from Florida to Wisconsin, and others fly from Texas to Canada and back again each year.”可知，一些美洲白鹤全年都待在佛罗里达州，一些从佛罗里达飞到威斯康星州，另一些每年从德克萨斯飞到加拿大再飞回来。故填others。 B) 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。 A Ben could not sleep at first.

This year, when my neighbour Ollie and I raced to the notice board to find out the theme(主题), we found that the theme was kind of, well, themeless. “‘Be 17 ’” I said, reading the notice board. “That’s not really a theme, is it?” Ollie got off his skateboard to get a closer look.“You’re right,” he agreed. “Now that’s the creative spirit we need for this challenge!” I said. “Maybe, since we don’t know exactly what we want to be, we should start by choosing cool costume-making 18 .” “I’ve got it.” Ollie said, picking up some leaves. “Really?” I said. “You’re going to make a costume out of leaves?” “Why not?” he said and 19 up some more leaves. “They’re totally free, and I think that no one will be a tree as great as me.” “Don’t you mean, as great as we?” I laughed, 20 him in collecting those colorful autumn leaves. It took us hours to get ready the next morning. When it was time for us to line up in the judging area, I felt pretty 21 . However, after a few minutes, I started having another feeling. As I was standing there in the costume, the feeling got 22 until I was so uncomfortable, I just had to scratch (挠). When I looked over at Ollie, he was doing the 23 thing “This is the worst.” he said as he moved his body. “I feel like I’m 24 with a million mosquito (蚊子) bites.” “Me too,” I said back. “I have to get out of this costume now.” At that moment, Mr. Lee called for everyone’s 25 .“The winner of our ‘Be Creative’ costume contest is these two magnificent trees” he announced. “Wonderful work.” said our neighbour, Mrs. Nishikawa. “I especially liked your 26 that made it look as if your leaves were rustling (沙沙响动) in the wind.” 17．A．interesting B．creative C．humorous D．thoughtful 18．A．suggestions B．inventions C．materials D．products 19．A．gave B．put C．cleaned D．picked 20．A．protecting B．respecting C．recording D．joining 21．A．relaxed B．worried C．bored D．curious 22．A．weaker B．better C．warmer D．stronger 23．A．right B．wrong C．same D．different 24．A．covered B．provided C．filled D．mixed 25．A．interest B．attention C．guess D．name 26．A．dance B．joke C．deal D．game 三、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 请认真阅读下列材料，从材料后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A We asked our students about practicing English.

This is because some of the content may not be safe for kids. • Only friend or follow people you know—if you receive a friend request from someone you don’t know, it is best to say no to their request. • Keep your email and phone number private (隐秘的)—your email address might have your name and you don’t want to get unwanted texts, calls or emails. • Don’t fill in all the fields on forms—if you sign up for something online, like a competition or quiz, only fill out the fields that are marked with an asterisk (this symbol *), which means that you must fill it in. 33．What is the passage mainly about?

In this way, they knew the number of pandas! “It’s hard to see pandas in nature,” said Colby, a scientist. “They hide in the thick bamboo forests.” That’s why scientists used paw prints to get the number. “We found pandas living in areas we didn’t know,” said Colby. Here are some fun facts of pandas. *It takes a panda more than 10 hours to eat 9 kg to 14 kg of bamboo every day. *A newborn panda weighs 90-130 grams. That is about the weight (重量) of a mouse. *A panda’s front paws have wrist bones (腕骨). The panda uses them to catch bamboo. The main threat (威胁) to pandas is that their land is becoming smaller and smaller. Pandas lose their land when people cut down the forests for wood and farming. Now, China has 13 nature reserves (保护区). People mustn’t cut down trees there. Scientists want to set up more nature centers to give pandas a better home to live. 36．Scientists knew the number of pandas by ________ in the forests.

You may weigh more than a whooping crane, but maybe you aren’t taller than one! Whooping cranes can grow up to five feet tall. It makes them the tallest birds in North America. But even as tall as they are, whooping cranes weigh only about 15 pounds, because of their hollow （空心的） bones. WHAT’S FOR DINNER? Whooping cranes live in wetlands, wet prairies, and fields. They’re not picky （挑剔的） about their meals—they have a mixed diet and eat small fish, and insects, as well as grains and marsh plants. CALL OF THE WILD Whooping cranes really like to ‘whoop it up’ when they want to attract a mate （伙伴）. They call loudly and do what might look like a crazy dance to be eye—catching. They flap their wings, and move their heads from side to side quickly, jumping up and down. A SPECIAL TRICK These cranes are in danger, but scientists have used some very interesting tricks to help them stay alive. At first, they moved one group of cranes to Florida, but the cranes never learned to migrate （迁徙）. When they got to Florida, they didn’t know how to fly back home. Scientists did all they could do to make the number of the cranes larger, so they used a special trick with another Florida group of cranes. Scientists “taught” the younger cranes to migrate by having them follow a very light airplane from Florida to Wisconsin. After the cranes gave birth to their babies in Florida, they’d follow the plane back to Wisconsin! Some whooping cranes stay in Florida all year round, some fly from Florida to Wisconsin, and others fly from Texas to Canada and back again each year.
