Unit 5 Amazing nature（任务型阅读专练）（天津专用） Passage 1 Some wild animals are in danger, while many people still don’t pay attention to them! Often they cut down forests for money or kill animals for their fur and ivory. We should try our best to save these lovely animals before it’s too late. When we protect wild animals, we also protect their living places. Many animals like elephants and pandas are friendly to humans. Elephants use their trunks to carry things and help each other. But some animals are dangerous, like sharks and snakes. We shouldn’t get close to them. Instead, we need to keep away from them. Cutting down forests destroys (破坏) their homes, and killing them makes their numbers become fewer and fewer. Remember: Every animal is important. The more we care about them, the healthier they will be. Let’s try to tell more people to protect wild animals! 阅读短文，完成下列句子，每空一词。 1．People often cut down forests or kill animals, so wild animals are in . 2．We should protect both the wild animals their living places. 3．Elephants use their trunks to carry things and help another. 4．We need to keep away from some animals instead of close to them. 5．We should remember the less we care wild animals, the unhealthier they will be. 【答案】1．danger 2．and 3．one 4．getting 5．about 【导语】本文呼吁人们保护濒危野生动物，指出人类砍伐森林和捕杀动物对动物造成的危害，并强调保护动物及其栖息地的重要性。 【详解】1．第一段提到一些野生动物处于危险之中“Some wild animals are in danger”，因此答案是danger。 2．第二段提到保护野生动物时也要保护它们的栖息地“When we protect wild animals, we also protect their living places”，因此用both...and连接两者，为并列连词固定搭配。 3．第二段提到大象用鼻子搬运东西并互相帮助“help each other”，“each other”意为“互相”，同义转换为one another“互相”。 4．第二段提到我们需要远离危险的动物，而不是靠近它们“keep away from them... shouldn’t get close to them”，空格前为介词“of”，因此用动名词形式getting。 5．第三段提到我们对动物越关心，它们就越健康“The more we care about them, the healthier they will be”，care about“关心”，答案是about。 Passage 2 阅读下面的语篇材料，根据所读内容，完成下列各题。 National Arbor Day is a holiday to encourage (鼓励) people to plant trees.

Although it is a lake, it is called a “sea” because it is short of fresh water. Why is the Dead Sea so salty? One reason is that it is about 430.5 meters below sea level. A long time ago, salt water flowed into the Dead Sea. Now, water from the Jordan River flows into the Dead Sea. With no outlet (出口), the water evaporates under the hot sun, leaving salt behind. Scientists say that the Dead Sea is falling. Its water level is dropping by 3.3 feet per year. People are using more water from the Jordan River. Less fresh water enters the lake every year. Lakes are usually filled with life. But the Dead Sea lives up to its name. There are no plants, and no animals can drink the water. If fish from the river swim into the Dead Sea by mistake, they will die. The water kills almost everything because it is saltier than ocean water. People like to visit this lake.
