【原文】M: The summer vacation in New Delhi begins on May 1st every year. Much before it began we started planning how to spend it. I suggested that we should go to Shillong. But my sister insisted that we see Darjeeling. My father decided that we would go to both places with one month’s stay at each place.
So, it was decided that we would be going first to Shillong and then to Darjeeling. We left the New Delhi Railway Station four days after the vacation began. It was a very long and tiring journey. The train reached Guwahati in the evening.
The next day, early in the morning we drove to Shillong. We stayed there for nearly a month in the hotel. The climate was no doubt cool and pleasant, but there were very few places of interest.
We left Shillong on June 4th. On our way to Darjeeling, we traveled by train. We saw thick forests and beautiful tea gardens. We reached Darjeeling at about noon. We took a taxi and went to a hotel where reservations had been earlier arranged by my father. One day we went to the Tiger Hills by taxi at 4 a.m. to enjoy the famous sunrise. It was a wonderful sight which we had never seen before. And that was the last day of our vacation.
第二部分:语法单选 (共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)

A. has been closed; is progressing
B. has been closed; had progressed
C. had been closed; has been progressing
D. had been closed; was progressing
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和语态。句意:河上那座历史悠久的木桥因严重侵蚀已经关闭一年多了,但最新报告称修复工作正在进行,下个月将重新开放。第一空根据时间状语“for over a year”可知,此处用现在完成时,bridge与close是被动关系,且主语为第三人称单数,所以谓语动词用has been closed;第二空表示现阶段正在进行的动作,结合“and will reopen next month”可知,此处用现在进行时,谓语动词为第三人称单数,所以第二空为is progressing。故选A项。
22. It is the first time that the new AI-driven algorithm (算法) ________ with the traditional approach in a complex real-world test.
A. has compared B. was compared C. has been compared D. is compared
【答案】C

【详解】考查时态和语态。句意:这是新的人工智能驱动算法首次在复杂的现实测试中与传统方法进行比较。此处为谓语动词,在“It is the first time that...”句型中,从句用现在完成时,algorithm与compare是被动关系,且主语为第三人称单数,所以谓语动词用has been compared。故选C项。
23. Not only many ancient Chinese poems but also the classic novel Dream of the Red Chamber __________ to be translated into dozens of foreign languages so far, and great cultural significance __________ to them by people all over the world.
A. have been proved; is attached B. has been proved; are attached
C. have been proved; are attached D. has been proved; is attached
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:不仅许多中国古代诗歌,就连经典小说《红楼梦》也已被证实已被翻译成数十种外语,而且它们在全世界范围内都具有极高的文化价值,受到人们的广泛重视。第一空主语与谓语构成被动关系,且Not only...but also... 谓语动词遵循就近原则,靠近的是 Dream of the Red Chamber(单数),所以第一空用 has been proved;第二空attach great significance to sth.表示“认为…… 有重要意义”,此处为被动关系,主语是 significance(不可数 / 单数),用 is attached。故选D。
24. These bad habits, if ______, will lead to serious problems.
A. leaving to be unchecking B. left unchecked
C. left to be unchecked D. to leave unchecking
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查状语从句的省略和主语补足语。句意:这些坏习惯,如果不加以控制,将会导致严重的问题。此处是if引导的条件状语从句的省略,该从句是一般现在时的被动语态,谓语构成是:is/am/are+过去分词,这个从句的助动词要用are,且从句主语和动词uncheck之间是被动关系,过去分词作主语补足语,也就是:if these bad habits are left unchecked (这些坏习惯,如果不加以控制);在英语中,如果状语从句的主语和主句的主语一致,且谓语中含有be动词,可以省略从句主语和be动词。由从属连词if (如果),unless (除非)等引导的条件状语从句,常有这种省略的用法。所以,if从句中的 these bad habits和be动词are可以省略,设空处要填上left unchecked。故选B。
25. The noise from my neighbor’s sitting room ______can be clearly heard in my apartment, which makes me distracted from reading.
A. is decorated B. being decorated C. decorated D. to be decorated
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:我的公寓里可以清楚地听到邻居家正在装修客厅的噪音,这让我无法专心读书。后置定语修饰名词,A不可作定语,排除A,根据题意可知邻居装修起居室这件事正在发生,不定式表示将要发生,排除D,而C表示已经完成,也可排除,故选B。
26. If you happen to see people at the Starbucks drinking coffee while ________ in typing with hands, don’t think they are office workers. They are so-called “the Atmosphere Group.”
A. absorbed B. absorbing C. being absorbed D. to absorb
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:如果你在星巴克看到有人一边喝咖啡一边用手打字,不要以为他们是上班族。他们就是所谓的“氛围小组”。分析句子,句中构成的是状语从句的省略,while后省略了主语people和are,同时absorb为动词,意为“吸收,使全神贯注”,sb be absorbed in doing sth意为“某人全神贯注做某事”。故选A。
27. So far, every possible means ________ to save the miners ________ in the mine.

【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查时态、语态和非谓语动词。句意:到目前为止,为了营救困在矿井里的矿工,每一种可能的方法都已经尝试过了。第一空,根据时间状语So far可知,应用现在完成时,主语every possible means和try为被动关系,需用现在完成时的被动语态,主语为every possible means,助动词用has;第二空为非谓语动词作后置定语,the miners和trap为被动关系,需用过去分词形式trapped。故选B。
28. ________ to diverse cultures from an early age, the child developed an open mind and global perspective.
A. Being exposed B. Having exposed C. Exposing D. Exposed
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:这个孩子从小就接触各种不同的文化,养成了开放的心态和全球化的视野。此空考查非谓语,the child与expose为被动关系,且此处表示动作expose在developed之前完成,再由语境可知,应用过去分词Exposed作状语,符合句意,故选D项。

A. Not having secured; launching B. Not securing; to launch
C. Having not secured; launching D. Having not secured; to launch
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:由于没有为修复项目获得足够的资金,博物馆当局现在正在考虑发起公众捐款。第一空,secure“获得”在句中作非谓语动词,且与逻辑主语the museum authorities是主动关系,secure这一动作发生在谓语动词consider之前,应用现在分词的完成式having done形式,且否定词应置于having done前,故填Not having secured。第二空,consider doing sth.为固定短语,意为“考虑做某事”,用launch“发起”的动名词launching,作宾语。故选A。
30. With many major economic problems ________ to be addressed, there is no point ________ the growth rate of this year now.

An exit card is a written student response to a question posed at the end of a class. Students give their exit cards to the teacher before they leave the classroom, and we use them as a quick check to see what they really remembered from the lesson.
I am retiring from teaching. This is my exit card.
Teachers learn just as much from students as students learn from us. These are a few of the things that I learned in my career.
Roger was not a normal child. About once a month, we would have a dance in our classroom. Roger was always nervous when it came to asking a girl to dance with him. Once, I noticed that Roger was slow dancing with Leah, one of the most popular girls. He had the biggest smile on his face. The next day I spoke to my class that simple act of including him in a slow dance was cool. At our next dance, Roger asked Leah and every girl in the class to dance. No one turned him down. Leah taught me about the kindness of a simple act and its effect.
Serena was our play’s narrator (旁白员). She was scared she would forget her lines. “If you do,” I advised, “pause, stare at the audience and take time to remember. The audience will think it’s part of the play.” Halfway through the opening night, Serena forgot her lines. She stared out at the 300 people gathered in the gym. After what seemed like forever, Serena remembered. After the performance, she burst into tears, thinking she had let everybody down. When our principal (校长) came back to congratulate us, she turned to Serena and said her pause worked so well. Little did she know about Serena’s little act of bravery.
Teachers spend hours making lessons to teach skills and knowledge. We adjust lessons, keep the good and throw out the bad. A good teacher listens to and learns from students and often it has nothing to do with the subjects.
34. What is the exit card for in class?
A. To ensure class attendance. B. To check what students learned in class.
C. To push teachers to adjust their teaching plans. D. To summarize the important knowledge in class.
35. Which of the following words best describe Leah?

A. The audience noticed her mistake and laughed.
B. She had prepared poorly for her role as the narrator.
C. Her way of dealing with forgetfulness appeared natural to others.
D. The principal knew she had forgotten her lines but encouraged her.

B. Unexpected Lessons: What My Students Taught Me
C. Small Acts, Big Impacts: Kindness in the Classroom
D. Facing Fears: Students’ Courage and Teachers’ Growth

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述即将退休的作者回忆从教生涯中,从学生身上学到的比课本知识更珍贵的人生道理。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Students give their exit cards to the teacher before they leave the classroom, and we use them as a quick check to see what they really remembered from the lesson.(学生们在离开教室前把离场卡交给老师,我们用它来快速检查他们从课堂上真正记住了什么。)”可知,课堂上的离场卡是用来检查学生课堂上学到的内容。故选B项。

【36题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中的“When our principal (校长) came back to congratulate us, she turned to Serena and said her pause worked so well. Little did she know about Serena’s little act of bravery. (当我们的校长回来祝贺我们时,她转向塞雷娜,说她的停顿处理得非常好。她完全不知道塞雷娜那小小的勇敢举动。)”可知,塞雷娜应对忘词的方式在别人看来很自然,像是表演的一部分。故选C项。
【37题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第三段中的“Teachers learn just as much from students as students learn from us. These are a few of the things that I learned in my career.(老师从学生身上学到的东西和学生从我们身上学到的一样多。这些是我职业生涯中学到的一些东西。)”可知,文章围绕作者从学生身上学到的意外收获展开,因此“意想不到的教训:我的学生教给我的东西”最适合作为标题。故选B项。
C
The Brazilian scientists were in disbelief after seeing the results. The country with the most freshwater resources in the world had lost 15 percent of its surface water since 1991. There has been slow water loss in the Brazilian-owned part of the Pantanal. The Pantanal is the world’s largest warm-climate wetland. It covers an area of between 140 thousand and 195 thousand square kilometers over three countries. Today, water coverage in the Pantanal is only 25 percent of what it was thirty years ago. And the scientists’ findings are only up through 2020. The next year’s drought has been Brazil’s worst in ninety years.
Evaporation (蒸发) is a part of the natural process that can lessen water resources. This is especially true in areas with low water levels like the Pantanal wetlands. But the scientists believe something else is happening. Experts have warned human activities are affecting the world’s weather patterns. It is causing extreme events to happen more often, such as severe droughts and floods. The cutting and burning of forest and the building of large hydroelectric factories and dams for watering crops all affect natural patterns. This is not just happening in Brazil. It’s happening all over the world.
The researchers found that ongoing drought has already raised energy costs and food prices. It has also dried out crops. And it has increased the risk of wildfire for large parts of forest.
Brazil’s decreasing water resources may also worsen fires that people set each winter to clear land. The fires then burn out of control. Last year, more than 25 percent of Brazil’s Pantanal was on fire. It was the worst yearly damage since officials began keeping records in 2003. What worries us most is that in areas without roads, moving on smaller rivers can be a problem because of low water levels. That means firefighters could soon have trouble reaching some fires. And, even if they can, less water is available to put them out.
38. What do we know about the scientists’ findings from paragraph 1?
A. They are irrelevant. B. They are incredible.
C. They mislead the public. D. They are easy to discover.
39. What is the author’s biggest worry about the crisis of water resources?
A. Massive crop drying.
B. Disappearance of wetlands.
C. Failure in land clearing in winter.
D. Difficulty in fire fighting in some areas.
40. How does the author develop the passage?
A. By providing typical examples. B. By making comparisons.
C. By presenting cause and effect. D. By giving definitions.
41. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Brazil Water Study Raises Fears for Drought.
B. Protecting Water Is a Top Mission for Brazil.
C. Brazil Becomes a Country Short of Fresh Water.
D. Climate Change Affects Water Security in Brazil.
【答案】38. B 39. D 40. C 41. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了巴西水资源减少引发干旱担忧及相关影响。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“The Brazilian scientists were in disbelief after seeing the results. The country with the most freshwater resources in the world had lost 15 percent of its surface water since 1991.(巴西科学家看到相关研究结果后大为震惊。这个全球淡水储备最丰富的国家,自1991年以来地表水总量已减少15%。)”可知,科学家们看到结果后难以置信,即他们的发现是令人难以置信的。故选B。
【39题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“What worries us most is that in areas without roads, moving on smaller rivers can be a problem because of low water levels. That means firefighters could soon have trouble reaching some fires. And, even if they can, less water is available to put them out.(最让我们担心的是,在没有道路的地区,由于水位低,在小河上航行可能是一个问题。这意味着消防员可能很快就会难以到达一些火灾现场。而且,即使他们能到达,可用于灭火的水也会减少。)”可知,作者最担心的是在一些地区由于水位低,消防员难以到达火灾现场,即使到达了,可用于灭火的水也会减少,即在一些地区灭火困难。故选D。
【40题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是根据第二段中“Evaporation (蒸发) is a part of the natural process that can lessen water resources. This is especially true in areas with low water levels like the Pantanal wetlands. But the scientists believe something else is happening. Experts have warned human activities are affecting the world’s weather patterns. It is causing extreme events to happen more often, such as severe droughts and floods.(蒸发是减少水资源的自然过程的一部分。这在像潘塔纳尔湿地这样水位低的地区尤其如此。但科学家们认为还有其他事情在发生。专家警告说,人类活动正在影响世界的天气模式。这导致极端事件更频繁地发生,如严重干旱和洪水。)”以及第三段“The researchers found that ongoing drought has already raised energy costs and food prices. It has also dried out crops. And it has increased the risk of wildfire for large parts of forest.(研究人员发现,持续的干旱已经提高了能源成本和食品价格。它还使农作物干枯。它还增加了森林大部分地区发生野火的风险。)”可知,文章先介绍了巴西水资源减少这一现象,然后分析了导致这一现象的原因,包括蒸发和人类活动等,接着又阐述了水资源减少带来的影响,如能源成本和食品价格上涨、农作物干枯、野火风险增加等,所以作者是通过呈现因果关系来展开文章的。故选C。
【41题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段“The Brazilian scientists were in disbelief after seeing the results. The country with the most freshwater resources in the world had lost 15 percent of its surface water since 1991.(巴西科学家看到相关研究结果后大为震惊。这个全球淡水储备最丰富的国家,自1991年以来地表水总量已减少15%。)”可知,文章主要讲述了巴西水资源减少引发干旱担忧及相关影响,所以A选项“Brazil Water Study Raises Fears for Drought(巴西水资源研究引发干旱担忧)”最符合文章主旨。故选A。
D
The enormous brown cane toad (甘蔗蟾蜍) was introduced to Australia intentionally in 1935 to eat native insects that threatened the profitability of sugar plantations. Unfortunately, the toads never got a taste for the insects. They did, however, turn out to be poisonous to predators (捕食者), especially snakes.
The story of the cane toad is a classic example of an ecologically destructive invasive (入侵的) species. In the short term, anyway. But the long term might be different. In 2004, researchers discovered that Australian snakes with a lot of exposure to the toads in their habitat were trending toward smaller mouths — mouths that made them unable to eat the largest, most poisonous toads. Instead, those snakes could successfully prey on smaller, less poisonous young toads.
While, theoretically, eradicating an invasive species ought to be cheaper than managing it or adapting to it, simply being “native” or “invasive” isn’t enough to tell you whether a species should be eradicated.
We have many examples of the relationship between invasive species and their new home environments functioning in ways that might not guarantee an automatic eradication policy. The endangered bird, the southwestern willow flycatcher, nests successfully in invasive tamarisk plants. Invasive trees in Puerto Rico do a better job of establishing forests on heavily degraded former lands than do native trees. Invasive birds help spread the seeds of native plants around the Hawaiian Islands.
The ability of invasive species to adapt and the ability of invasive species to be beneficial as well as harmful have led a handful of scientists to begin speaking out about the possibility of handling invasive species in a different way. Instead of jumping immediately to eradication, they suggest, the ideal course of treatment should, at least, begin with a more thorough examination of the full range of impacts each invasive species has on its new home.
As biologist Mark Davis wrote in the journal Nature, “Nearly two centuries on from the introduction of the concept of nativeness, it’s time for conservationists to focus much more on the functions of species, and much less on where they originated.”
42. What did the researchers find about the Australian snakes?
A. They relocated to safer natural habitats. B. They adapted to coexisting with cane toads.
C. They started preying on harmful native insects. D. They reduced their exposure to large cane toads.
43. What does the underlined word “eradicating” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Ignoring. B. Preserving. C. Observing. D. Removing.
44. Why does the author mention the invasive species in paragraph 4?
A. To compare them with native species.
B. To illustrate their worsening living conditions.
C. To show their positive effects in their new habitats.
D. To highlight their efforts to fit into the environment.
45. What did Mark Davis suggest regarding conservation efforts?
A. Evaluating species by their ecological roles. B. Restoring native species as much as possible.
C. Helping species survive diverse environments. D. Protecting species based on their native origins.
【答案】42. B 43. D 44. C 45. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。甘蔗蟾蜍入侵澳大利亚后,蛇逐渐适应共存,作者通过实例说明入侵物种有正负影响,建议按功能评估物种而非起源。
【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“In 2004, researchers discovered that Australian snakes with a lot of exposure to the toads in their habitat were trending toward smaller mouths — mouths that made them unable to eat the largest, most poisonous toads. Instead, those snakes could successfully prey on smaller, less poisonous young toads.(2004年,研究人员发现,那些在栖息地内经常与蟾蜍接触的澳大利亚蛇,其嘴巴逐渐变小。这种变化使得这些蛇无法吞食体型最大、毒性最强的蟾蜍。相反,这些蛇能够成功捕食体型较小、毒性较弱的幼年蟾蜍)”可知,研究人员发现澳大利亚蛇类适应了与甘蔗蟾蜍共存的环境。故选B。
【43题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“The story of the cane toad is a classic example of an ecologically destructive invasive (入侵的) species. (甘蔗蟾蜍的故事是生态破坏型入侵物种的一个典型例子)”以及划线词后文“an invasive species ought to be cheaper than managing it or adapting to it (一种入侵物种的成本应当低于对其进行管理或适应的成本)”可知,生物入侵导致生态破坏,故此处指清除一种入侵物种的成本应当低于对其进行管理或适应的成本,故划线词意思是“清除、根除”。故选D。
【44题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“The endangered bird, the southwestern willow flycatcher, nests successfully in invasive tamarisk plants. Invasive trees in Puerto Rico do a better job of establishing forests on heavily degraded former lands than do native trees. Invasive birds help spread the seeds of native plants around the Hawaiian Islands.(濒危鸟类——西南柳捕蝇鶲在入侵的柽柳植物中成功筑巢。在波多黎各,入侵树木在严重退化的原有土地上营造森林的效果要优于本土树木。入侵鸟类有助于将本土植物的种子散布到夏威夷群岛的各个角落)”可知,作者在第四段中提及这些入侵物种是为了展示它们在新栖息地所产生的积极影响。故选C。
【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“As biologist Mark Davis wrote in the journal Nature, “Nearly two centuries on from the introduction of the concept of nativeness, it’s time for conservationists to focus much more on the functions of species, and much less on where they originated.”(正如生物学家马克·戴维斯在《自然》杂志上所写:“自‘原生性’这一概念提出近两百年来,现在是时候让环保主义者更多地关注物种的功能,而减少对其起源地的关注了。”)”可知,马克·戴维斯建议保护工作依据物种的生态作用对其进行评估。故选A。

【答案】 ①. In ②. addition ③. to
【解析】
【详解】句意:除了技术技能,现在许多科技公司也同样高度重视创造力和团队合作。根据中文提示“除了……”以及空格后接名词短语technical skills可知,此处需用介词短语表示“除……之外(还)”的含义。in addition to为固定搭配,意为“除……之外(还)”,其中to为介词,后接名词、代词或动名词。
89. 每当谈话触及那个敏感话题,他就会毫无解释地愤然离去。
Whenever the conversation touches on that sensitive topic, he just ________ ________ without any explanation.
【答案】 ①. storms ②. off
【解析】
【详解】句意:每当谈话触及那个敏感话题,他就会毫无解释地愤然离去。 根据中文提示“愤然离去”可知,此处应填动词短语storm off,意为“愤然离开;怒气冲冲地走开”。由从句中的touches 可知,主句时态为一般现在时,主语he为第三人称单数,因此go第三人称单数形式storms。
90. 随着幕布落下,场灯亮起,观众的掌声逐渐消散,为这场神奇的演出画上句号。
The applause from the audience gradually ________ ________ as the curtain fell and the house lights came up, ending the magical performance.

91. 她通过坚持晨跑、均衡营养和正念冥想的严格养生法来保持健康。
She stays ________ ________ by maintaining a strict regimen of morning runs, balanced nutrition, and mindfulness meditation.

________ ________ ________ ________ ________ real-life examples of grammar rules in use is a great way to improve your language skills naturally.
【答案】 ①. Keeping ②. your ③. eyes ④. open ⑤. for
【解析】
【详解】句意:留意语法规则在现实中的应用实例,是自然提高语言能力的好方法。 根据中文提示“留意”可知,此处应填固定短语keep your eyes open for,意为“注意;留意”。分析句子结构,空格处需要作主语,动词短语作主语时需用动名词形式,因此keep变为keeping。
93. 面对这个难题,工程师尝试了一种非常规的解决方案,结果居然奏效了。
Facing the difficult problem, the engineer ________ ________ an unconventional solution that surprisingly worked.
【答案】 ①. tried ②. out
【解析】
【详解】句意:面对这个难题,工程师尝试了一种非常规的解决方案,结果居然奏效了。 根据中文提示“尝试”可知,此处应填动词短语try out,意为“尝试;试验”。由句意及从句that surprisingly worked中的worked 可知,时态为一般过去时,因此try用过去式tried。
94. 一个轮子从疾驰的汽车上脱落,导致汽车失控打转并撞上了护栏。

【答案】 ①. broke ②. away

An exit card is a written student response to a question posed at the end of a class. Students give their exit cards to the teacher before they leave the classroom, and we use them as a quick check to see what they really remembered from the lesson.
I am retiring from teaching. This is my exit card.
Teachers learn just as much from students as students learn from us. These are a few of the things that I learned in my career.
Roger was not a normal child. About once a month, we would have a dance in our classroom. Roger was always nervous when it came to asking a girl to dance with him. Once, I noticed that Roger was slow dancing with Leah, one of the most popular girls. He had the biggest smile on his face. The next day I spoke to my class that simple act of including him in a slow dance was cool. At our next dance, Roger asked Leah and every girl in the class to dance. No one turned him down. Leah taught me about the kindness of a simple act and its effect.
Serena was our play’s narrator (旁白员). She was scared she would forget her lines. “If you do,” I advised, “pause, stare at the audience and take time to remember. The audience will think it’s part of the play.” Halfway through the opening night, Serena forgot her lines. She stared out at the 300 people gathered in the gym. After what seemed like forever, Serena remembered. After the performance, she burst into tears, thinking she had let everybody down. When our principal (校长) came back to congratulate us, she turned to Serena and said her pause worked so well. Little did she know about Serena’s little act of bravery.

The Brazilian scientists were in disbelief after seeing the results. The country with the most freshwater resources in the world had lost 15 percent of its surface water since 1991. There has been slow water loss in the Brazilian-owned part of the Pantanal. The Pantanal is the world’s largest warm-climate wetland. It covers an area of between 140 thousand and 195 thousand square kilometers over three countries. Today, water coverage in the Pantanal is only 25 percent of what it was thirty years ago. And the scientists’ findings are only up through 2020. The next year’s drought has been Brazil’s worst in ninety years.
Evaporation (蒸发) is a part of the natural process that can lessen water resources. This is especially true in areas with low water levels like the Pantanal wetlands. But the scientists believe something else is happening. Experts have warned human activities are affecting the world’s weather patterns. It is causing extreme events to happen more often, such as severe droughts and floods. The cutting and burning of forest and the building of large hydroelectric factories and dams for watering crops all affect natural patterns. This is not just happening in Brazil. It’s happening all over the world.
The researchers found that ongoing drought has already raised energy costs and food prices. It has also dried out crops. And it has increased the risk of wildfire for large parts of forest.
Brazil’s decreasing water resources may also worsen fires that people set each winter to clear land. The fires then burn out of control. Last year, more than 25 percent of Brazil’s Pantanal was on fire. It was the worst yearly damage since officials began keeping records in 2003. What worries us most is that in areas without roads, moving on smaller rivers can be a problem because of low water levels. That means firefighters could soon have trouble reaching some fires. And, even if they can, less water is available to put them out.
38. What do we know about the scientists’ findings from paragraph 1?
A. They are irrelevant. B. They are incredible.
C. They mislead the public. D. They are easy to discover.
39. What is the author’s biggest worry about the crisis of water resources?
A. Massive crop drying.
B. Disappearance of wetlands.
C. Failure in land clearing in winter.
D. Difficulty in fire fighting in some areas.
40. How does the author develop the passage?
A. By providing typical examples. B. By making comparisons.
C. By presenting cause and effect. D. By giving definitions.
41. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Brazil Water Study Raises Fears for Drought.
B. Protecting Water Is a Top Mission for Brazil.
C. Brazil Becomes a Country Short of Fresh Water.
D. Climate Change Affects Water Security in Brazil.
D
The enormous brown cane toad (甘蔗蟾蜍) was introduced to Australia intentionally in 1935 to eat native insects that threatened the profitability of sugar plantations. Unfortunately, the toads never got a taste for the insects. They did, however, turn out to be poisonous to predators (捕食者), especially snakes.
The story of the cane toad is a classic example of an ecologically destructive invasive (入侵的) species. In the short term, anyway. But the long term might be different. In 2004, researchers discovered that Australian snakes with a lot of exposure to the toads in their habitat were trending toward smaller mouths — mouths that made them unable to eat the largest, most poisonous toads. Instead, those snakes could successfully prey on smaller, less poisonous young toads.
While, theoretically, eradicating an invasive species ought to be cheaper than managing it or adapting to it, simply being “native” or “invasive” isn’t enough to tell you whether a species should be eradicated.
We have many examples of the relationship between invasive species and their new home environments functioning in ways that might not guarantee an automatic eradication policy. The endangered bird, the southwestern willow flycatcher, nests successfully in invasive tamarisk plants. Invasive trees in Puerto Rico do a better job of establishing forests on heavily degraded former lands than do native trees. Invasive birds help spread the seeds of native plants around the Hawaiian Islands.
The ability of invasive species to adapt and the ability of invasive species to be beneficial as well as harmful have led a handful of scientists to begin speaking out about the possibility of handling invasive species in a different way. Instead of jumping immediately to eradication, they suggest, the ideal course of treatment should, at least, begin with a more thorough examination of the full range of impacts each invasive species has on its new home.
As biologist Mark Davis wrote in the journal Nature, “Nearly two centuries on from the introduction of the concept of nativeness, it’s time for conservationists to focus much more on the functions of species, and much less on where they originated.”
42. What did the researchers find about the Australian snakes?
A. They relocated to safer natural habitats. B. They adapted to coexisting with cane toads.
C. They started preying on harmful native insects. D. They reduced their exposure to large cane toads.
43. What does the underlined word “eradicating” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Ignoring. B. Preserving. C. Observing. D. Removing.
44. Why does the author mention the invasive species in paragraph 4?
A. To compare them with native species.
B. To illustrate their worsening living conditions.
C. To show their positive effects in their new habitats.
D. To highlight their efforts to fit into the environment.
45. What did Mark Davis suggest regarding conservation efforts?
A. Evaluating species by their ecological roles. B. Restoring native species as much as possible.
C. Helping species survive diverse environments. D. Protecting species based on their native origins.
