一、限制性定语从句与非限制性定语从句概述
1.限制性定语从句是先行词不可缺少的一部分,若去掉,主句的内容就不完整,意义也会发生改变。从句和先行词的关系十分密切,从句紧跟先行词,两者之间不可用逗号隔开。
She has found the necklace (that) she lost two weeks ago.她找到了那条两周前丢失的项链。
2.非限制性定语从句是先行词的一个补充说明。没有它,主句也能独立存在;非限制性定语从句和先行词的关系不是很密切,两者之间用逗号隔开。
He has two sisters,who are working in the city.他有两个姐姐,她们在城里工作。
二、限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句的区别
1.标点的运用有所不同
限制性定语从句一般紧跟在先行词后,其后不可用逗号分开;而非限制性定语从句也常放在先行词后,但必须用逗号与主句分开。
Who is the girl that is standing under the tree?站在树下的那个女孩是谁?
He is a teacher of much knowledge,from whom much can be learned.他是一个学识渊博的老师,从他那儿可以学到许多东西。
2.从句的作用不同
限制性定语从句对先行词起到修饰限制的作用,是先行词在意义上不可缺少的定语,一旦省略,主句的意思就不完整。而非限制性定语从句则是对一个概念清楚的先行词进行附加说明,若将其去掉,主句的意思仍然完整。
The next day,my brother and I went to the beach where we watched some people play volleyball.
第二天,我和弟弟去了海边。在那里,我们看到一些人在打沙滩排球。
Alice received a letter from her former classmate,which came as a surprise.
艾丽斯收到了她以前同学的一封信,这真是件令人惊奇的事情。
3.关系词的选用不同
限制性定语从句可以用关系代词who,whom,whose,that,which,关系副词when,where,why等引导,而非限制性定语从句不可用that或why来引导(上述引导词除了这两者以外均可用来引导非限制性定语从句)。
Yesterday he bought a new car,which was made in Japan.
(which不可换用that)昨天他买了一辆新车,是日本生产的。
He didn't give the reason,which explained his absence from the meeting held last week.
(which不可换用why,因为which在定语从句中作主语,而why只能在定语从句中作状语。此句也可以这样表达,He didn't give the reason,for which he was absent from the meeting held last week.)
4.从句所修饰的先行词有所不同
限制性定语从句的先行词通常是名词、代词或词组;而非限制性定语从句的先行词除了名词、代词外,还可以是句子。
This is the best book that I have ever read.这是我曾经读过的书中的最好的一本。
He won the first prize in the contest,which was more than we expected.他在比赛中得了一等奖,这一点真出乎我们预料。
5.关系词的省略不同
在限制性定语从句中,当关系代词在定语从句中作宾语或表语时,在口语中可以省略,关系副词有时也可省略。而非限制性定语从句中的关系代词或关系副词不可省略。
I still remember the days we spent together in college.我仍然记得我们在大学时一起度过的日子。(we前省略了that/which)
She is not the one(that) she used to be.她已不再是昔日的她了。(that在定语从句中作表语)
6.英译汉时有所不同
译成汉语时,往往把限制性定语从句的内容置于先行词之前;而非限制性定语从句和主句往往翻译成两个分句。
Which is the machine that we used last Sunday?上星期天我们用的那台机器是哪一台?
The concert,which was held last week,was a great success.那场音乐会是上周举行的,获得了巨大的成功。
He may be late,in which case we ought to wait for him.他可能迟到,要是那样的话我们就等等他。
三、as和which引导非限制性定语从句的区别
which
as
位置上
只能放在先行词的后面
位置灵活,可位于句前、句中,也可置于句后
搭配上
无动词的限制
谓语动词通常是表示感觉或心理活动的动词,如see,hear,know,expect,remember,guess,hope等
句意上
意为“这一点”
表示“正如……,正像……的那样”
The air quality in the city,as is shown in the report,has improved over the past two months.
正如报告所显示的,在过去的两个月里,这个城市的空气质量已有所改善。
After graduating from college,I took some time off to go travelling,which turned out to be a wise decision.大学毕业后我抽出一部分时间去旅游,事实证明这是一个明智的选择。

题型二 阅读理解
(25-26高二下·广东·阶段检测)A new island to support wildlife is being created in the UK. The National Trust, a conservation organization, recently sank three large boats into the Blackwater Estuary (河口) in Essex, England, to form the base of the island. Birds can rest there, and the structure will protect the area’s salt marsh (盐沼) habitats, where many plant and animal species live.
An estuary is where a river widens and flows into the sea. The Blackwater Estuary is home to some of the UK’s most threatened seabirds. Experts hope the artificial island will be a safe place for these birds.
To make the artificial island, the team cut holes in the bottom of the boats and poured mud into them to weigh them down. It took about 282,000 cubic feet of mud to fill and surround the boats — enough to fill more than three Olympic swimming pools. More mud will be piled on top, and then a layer of gravel (砾石) will be added. Once the work is complete, the island will be slightly larger than a football field. It will be a place for the birds to rest, even when the tide is at its highest and nearby shores are largely underwater.
Along with creating a new home for birds, the team hopes the island will slow the erosion of the salt marsh inside the estuary. Erosion can happen when flooding and waves pull soil and rocks into the sea. The new island should act as a defense, sheltering the salt marsh from waves to protect the habitat.
Katy Gilchrist, coastal project manager for the National Trust, said the program was a form of “marine recycling” because it transformed retired boats into a reserve for wildlife. “We’re basically turning history into habitat,” she added. “And as far as we know, no one has attempted anything quite like this before.”
1.Why is the new island being built?
A.To serve as a scenic spot. B.To address waste management.
C.To recycle old boats for fishing. D.To protect wildlife and its habitats.
2.What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning “three Olympic swimming pools”?
A.The total area of the new island. B.The depth of the artificial island.
C.The huge amount of mud needed. D.The number of boats used in the project.
3.What does the underlined word “erosion” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Influence of waves on bird habitats. B.The filling of soil and rocks into the sea.
C.The formation of new land from mud and gravel. D.Gradual destruction of land by water and waves.
4.What can be inferred from Katy Gilchrist’s words in the last paragraph?
A.The National Trust copied an old idea. B.Marine recycling is common in the UK.
C.The project gives old boats a new natural use. D.The island will be for studying history and wildlife.
(25-26高二下·辽宁营口·阶段检测)Last year, the world lost more forests than ever before, according to researchers from the University of Maryland and the World Resources Institute (WRI) that released their latest report on the world’s forests.
The report shows that the world lost about 25,870 square miles of primary rainforest last year. That’s almost double the amount that was lost the year before last. It wasn’t just rainforests that disappeared more rapidly last year. Due to strong wildfire seasons in Canada and Russia, the world’s total tree cover loss increased by 5% last year compared to the year before last. In all, the world lost 115,830 square miles of forests last year. That’s an area roughly the size of Italy.
According to WRI, last year, for the first time ever, fires were the biggest cause of forest loss. Fires caused almost half of the total loss. That’s a huge problem, because forest fires add to the pollution that causes global warming. Airplane travel is one of the world’s biggest sources of greenhouse gases. But last year, the amount of pollution released by forest fires was over four times greater than the pollution from all the world’s airplane travel the year before last. The second biggest cause of forest loss was clearing land for farming, including growing crops and raising animals. The amount of land cleared for farming shot up by 14% last year. That’s the biggest increase in 10 years.
In 2021, the leaders of 140 countries signed an agreement to stop forest loss and begin increasing forest area by 2030. However, that’s not happening. WRI says that 17 of the 20 countries with the most primary forests are losing more forests now than when they signed the agreement. Brazil has the most tropical rainforest in the world. But last year, it also had the most forest loss. It was responsible for 42% of the world’s total loss of primary forest.
WRI says that to meet the goal of ending forest loss by 2030, the world will need to lower its forest losses by 20% every year. It’s high time to work together.
1.What are the statistics in paragraph 2 used to show about forest loss?
A.Its location. B.Its reasons.
C.Its varieties. D.Its severity.
2.Why does the author mention airplane travel?
A.To explain global warming.
B.To praise its eco-achievements.
C.To prove WRI’s previous point.
D.To emphasize forest fires’ effects.
3.What can be inferred about the 2021 agreement?
A.It has been quitted by some countries.
B.It has been carried out unsuccessfully.
C.It has been preventing farming growing.
D.It has been getting more and more promising.
4.What is the best title for the text?
A.Forests Declined at a Record Pace B.Climate Change Causes Forest Loss
C.Primary Rainforest Struggled to Live D.Wildfires Are Driving Global Warming

一、高考真题
1.(2026年全国一卷)Drawn by the aroma (香味) of street food, they line up in front of stands ____63____ serve steaming dumplings and hot noodle soup.
【63题详解】
考查定语从句。句意同上。此处引导限制性定语从句,stands(摊位)是先行词,关系代词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词that或which引导从句。
2.(2026年全国二卷)We move on to tai chi positions, of ____61____ there are forty-two in the style that Angela teaches. Today, we will only be doing the first nine.
【61题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:我们继续学习太极招式,安吉拉教授的这种风格共有四十二式。逗号后为非限制性定语从句,先行词positions,在从句中作介词of的宾语,用关系代词which。
3.(2026年浙江1月)The microwave had a loud alarm, but we overshadowed that noise with our own performance, tipping our heads back and shouting into the air-a scream ____41____ always ended in laughter.
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:微波炉的警报声很大,但我们用自己的表演掩盖了那个声音,仰起头对着天空大喊——一声尖叫总是以笑声结束。本空引导定语从句,先行词是a scream,指物,关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语,应用关系代词that或which引导。故填that/which。
二、单句语法填空
1.Wu Yize, won the World Snooker Championship final, has set a new benchmark for young Chinese players.
【答案】who
【详解】句意:吴宜泽赢得了世界斯诺克锦标赛决赛冠军,他为年轻的中国选手树立了新的标杆。“______ won the World Snooker Championship final”为定语从句,先行词是Wu Yize,指人,且关系词在从句中作主语,用关系代词who引导。
2.We’ll all experience a point we choose kindness over anger, and that choice brings us closer together.
【答案】where
【详解】句意:我们都会经历这样一个时刻——我们选择以善意代替愤怒,而这个选择让我们彼此更加亲近。空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词point,此处表示抽象的“节点”,关系词在从句中作地点状语(即at the point),因此使用关系副词where引导该从句。
3.Many families are not trapped in poverty, but in a subtle situation emotional communication gradually fades amid busy daily routines.
【答案】where
【详解】句意:许多家庭并未陷入贫困,而是陷入一种微妙处境,日常琐事缠身,情感交流日渐淡化。空处引导限制性定语从句,代替先行词situation在从句中作抽象的地点状语,应用关系副词where作引导词。

6.The hostess invited three guests to join us in the studio, none of I had ever met before.
【答案】whom
【详解】句意:女主持人邀请了三位客人到演播室和我们一起,我以前从未见过他们中的任何一位。此处应为“介词+关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句,先行词three guests,指人,且在从句中作介词of的宾语,所以使用关系代词whom。
7.This is a special occasion many families will gather together to celebrate.
【答案】where
【详解】句意:这是一个许多家庭会聚在一起庆祝的特殊时刻。空格处引导的是定语从句,从句中不缺主语或宾语,先行词occasion是抽象地点,因此空格处用关系副词where引导定语从句。
8.More of us are using headphones in noisier environments, we may turn up the volume to potentially dangerous levels.
【答案】where
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:越来越多的人在嘈杂的环境中使用耳机,而在这种环境中,他们可能会将音量调得过高,从而达到潜在的危险程度。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,从句中不缺主语或宾语,先行词environments是抽象地点,因此用关系副词where引导定语从句,故填where。

10.He couldn’t forget the reason the survivor mentioned for surviving the earthquake — staying calm.
【答案】which/that
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:他无法忘记幸存者提及的地震逃生原因——保持冷静。分析句子可知,设空处引导定语从句,先行词为the reason(指物),在定语从句作动词mentioned的宾语成分,所以为关系代词which/ that引导。故填which/ that。
11.His work shows the principles of biomimicry (仿生学), natural patterns and systems, such as the shapes of plants and animals, inspire human-made designs.
【答案】where
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:他的作品体现了仿生学原理—— 即自然界的形态与系统(如动植物的外形)能够启发人类进行设计创作。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是 biomimicry,指物,在从句中作抽象的地点状语,应用关系副词where引导从句。故填where。

【答案】whom/who/that
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:在医院的特殊病房里,有一些正在被那位医生特别照料的病人。此处引导限制性定语从句,先行词是some patients,指人,定语从句中of后面缺宾语,应用关系代词who/whom/that。故填who/whom/that。
13.Some people, live a green and cost-effective lifestyle, prefer homemade meals over pricey light foods.

2.考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:这份由专家修订的更新名录包含82种保护野生动物。空格处是谓语动词,句子描述的是客观事实,用一般现在时;主语The updated list是单数形式,所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式includes。

7.考查动词时态和语态。句意:那些记录不明确的物种被从原始清单中剔除,而近年来监测到的新物种则被纳入其中,从而使鸟类物种的总数从 232 种增加到了 281 种。空格处是谓语动词,主语Species与谓语动词remove之间是被动关系,且句子描述的是过去发生的动作,所以用一般过去时的被动语态,结构为“was/were+过去分词”;species单复数同形,根据语境此处表示复数概念,所以填were removed。
8.考查非谓语动词。句意:那些记录不明确的物种被从原始清单中剔除,而近年来监测到的新物种则被纳入其中,从而使鸟类物种的总数从 232 种增加到了 281 种。空格处作结果状语,动词increase与上文的内容之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词increasing。
9.考查非谓语动词。句意:青海湖国家级自然保护区始建于 1975 年,位于青藏高原的东北部,涵盖了青海湖的整个水域以及岛屿、海滩和湿地,这里是鸟类繁衍和筑巢的场所。空格处作状语,句子的主语the Qinghai Lake National Nature Reserve与动词found之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词founded作状语。

There is little doubt that Earth is getting warmer and warmer. In 2013, many people 1 (shock) by a news photo of a dead polar bear which appeared to have starved and died. Experts claimed that low sea — ice levels caused by climate change meant the bear could not hunt seals as before, so it had to travel 2 (great) distances to find food. This showed the rising temperature affected Earth’s ecology.
Then what is causing the increase in the global average surface temperature? Climate scientists often mention a key climate process called the “greenhouse effect”, 3 has two common meanings: the “natural” greenhouse effect and the “man-made” greenhouse effect. The “man-made” greenhouse effect has now become 4 big problem. There is strong and comprehensive evidence 5 the rise in temperature has led to an increase in extreme weather and natural disasters worldwide. In fact, news reports are 6 (frequent) broadcast about extreme rainstorms and heatwaves causing deaths and economic 7 (loss).

2.考查形容词比较级。句意:专家称,气候变化导致的低海冰水平意味着这只熊无法像以前那样捕猎海豹,因此它不得不跋涉更远的距离去寻找食物。根据前文“could not hunt seals as before”可知,由于无法在原地捕猎,它需要走比平时更远的距离,应用great“极大的,很大的”的比较级greater。
3.考查定语从句。句意:气候科学家经常提到一个关键的气候过程,叫做“温室效应”,它有两个常见的含义:“自然”温室效应和“人为”温室效应。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是the greenhouse effect,指物,且关系词在从句中作主语,用关系代词which引导该从句。
4.考查冠词。句意:“人为”温室效应现在变成了一个大问题。根据空后的“big problem”可知,此处泛指“一个大问题”,big的发音以辅音音素开头,应用不定冠词a。
5.考查同位语从句。句意:有强有力且全面的证据表明,气温上升已导致全球极端天气和自然灾害的增加。evidence后接同位语从句,解释说明证据的具体内容,从句结构完整且不缺少成分,应用连接词that引导。

8.考查介词。句意:持续的温室气体排放将导致进一步的变暖和全球气候的长期变化。此处为固定搭配result in,意为“导致”。
9.考查非谓语动词。句意:作为个人,我们可以通过限制我们的生活方式产生的二氧化碳量来减少我们的“碳足迹”。根据空前介词“by”可知,空处动词restrict“限制”需用动名词restricting作宾语。
10.考查非谓语动词。句意:抓住每一个机会向每个人宣传全球变暖,是我们的责任。分析句子结构可知,本句是固定句型It is + n. + to do sth.,其中It是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词seize“抓住”的不定式形式。
题型二 阅读理解
(25-26高二下·广东·阶段检测)A new island to support wildlife is being created in the UK. The National Trust, a conservation organization, recently sank three large boats into the Blackwater Estuary (河口) in Essex, England, to form the base of the island. Birds can rest there, and the structure will protect the area’s salt marsh (盐沼) habitats, where many plant and animal species live.
An estuary is where a river widens and flows into the sea. The Blackwater Estuary is home to some of the UK’s most threatened seabirds. Experts hope the artificial island will be a safe place for these birds.
To make the artificial island, the team cut holes in the bottom of the boats and poured mud into them to weigh them down. It took about 282,000 cubic feet of mud to fill and surround the boats — enough to fill more than three Olympic swimming pools. More mud will be piled on top, and then a layer of gravel (砾石) will be added. Once the work is complete, the island will be slightly larger than a football field. It will be a place for the birds to rest, even when the tide is at its highest and nearby shores are largely underwater.
Along with creating a new home for birds, the team hopes the island will slow the erosion of the salt marsh inside the estuary. Erosion can happen when flooding and waves pull soil and rocks into the sea. The new island should act as a defense, sheltering the salt marsh from waves to protect the habitat.
Katy Gilchrist, coastal project manager for the National Trust, said the program was a form of “marine recycling” because it transformed retired boats into a reserve for wildlife. “We’re basically turning history into habitat,” she added. “And as far as we know, no one has attempted anything quite like this before.”
1.Why is the new island being built?
A.To serve as a scenic spot. B.To address waste management.
C.To recycle old boats for fishing. D.To protect wildlife and its habitats.
2.What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning “three Olympic swimming pools”?
A.The total area of the new island. B.The depth of the artificial island.
C.The huge amount of mud needed. D.The number of boats used in the project.
3.What does the underlined word “erosion” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Influence of waves on bird habitats. B.The filling of soil and rocks into the sea.
C.The formation of new land from mud and gravel. D.Gradual destruction of land by water and waves.
4.What can be inferred from Katy Gilchrist’s words in the last paragraph?
A.The National Trust copied an old idea. B.Marine recycling is common in the UK.
C.The project gives old boats a new natural use. D.The island will be for studying history and wildlife.
【答案】1.D 2.C 3.D 4.C
【导语】文章主要介绍英国保护组织将三艘旧船沉入河口造人工岛,填泥铺砾石供濒危海鸟栖息。岛屿可减缓盐沼海浪侵蚀,废旧船只改造为野生动物保护区,是独特海洋再利用项目。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段“A new island to support wildlife is being created in the UK. The National Trust, a conservation organization, recently sank three large boats into the Blackwater Estuary (河口) in Essex, England, to form the base of the island.(英国正在打造一座新的岛屿以保护野生动物。一家名为国家信托的自然保护组织最近在英格兰埃塞克斯郡的黑水河口沉没三艘大型船只,用作该岛屿的基础)”可知,建造这座新岛屿是为了保护野生动物及其栖息地。
2.推理判断题。根据第三段“It took about 282,000 cubic feet of mud to fill and surround the boats — enough to fill more than three Olympic swimming pools.(填满并环绕这些船只需要约28.2万立方英尺的泥浆,足够装满三个以上奥林匹克游泳池)”可知,作者提到“三个奥运游泳池”试图说明需要大量淤泥。
3.词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“the salt marsh inside the estuary(河口内部的盐沼)”并结合常识可知,盐沼回侵蚀毁坏土地。故划线词意思是“水和波浪对土地的逐渐破坏”。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Katy Gilchrist, coastal project manager for the National Trust, said the program was a form of “marine recycling” because it transformed retired boats into a reserve for wildlife.(国家信托基金会的海岸项目主管凯蒂·吉尔克里斯特表示,该项目是一种“海洋回收”形式,因为它将退役船只改造成野生动物的庇护所)”可知,该项目使旧船获得了新的自然用途。
(25-26高二下·辽宁营口·阶段检测)Last year, the world lost more forests than ever before, according to researchers from the University of Maryland and the World Resources Institute (WRI) that released their latest report on the world’s forests.
The report shows that the world lost about 25,870 square miles of primary rainforest last year. That’s almost double the amount that was lost the year before last. It wasn’t just rainforests that disappeared more rapidly last year. Due to strong wildfire seasons in Canada and Russia, the world’s total tree cover loss increased by 5% last year compared to the year before last. In all, the world lost 115,830 square miles of forests last year. That’s an area roughly the size of Italy.
According to WRI, last year, for the first time ever, fires were the biggest cause of forest loss. Fires caused almost half of the total loss. That’s a huge problem, because forest fires add to the pollution that causes global warming. Airplane travel is one of the world’s biggest sources of greenhouse gases. But last year, the amount of pollution released by forest fires was over four times greater than the pollution from all the world’s airplane travel the year before last. The second biggest cause of forest loss was clearing land for farming, including growing crops and raising animals. The amount of land cleared for farming shot up by 14% last year. That’s the biggest increase in 10 years.
In 2021, the leaders of 140 countries signed an agreement to stop forest loss and begin increasing forest area by 2030. However, that’s not happening. WRI says that 17 of the 20 countries with the most primary forests are losing more forests now than when they signed the agreement. Brazil has the most tropical rainforest in the world. But last year, it also had the most forest loss. It was responsible for 42% of the world’s total loss of primary forest.
WRI says that to meet the goal of ending forest loss by 2030, the world will need to lower its forest losses by 20% every year. It’s high time to work together.
1.What are the statistics in paragraph 2 used to show about forest loss?
A.Its location. B.Its reasons.
C.Its varieties. D.Its severity.
2.Why does the author mention airplane travel?
A.To explain global warming.
B.To praise its eco-achievements.
C.To prove WRI’s previous point.
D.To emphasize forest fires’ effects.
3.What can be inferred about the 2021 agreement?
A.It has been quitted by some countries.
B.It has been carried out unsuccessfully.
C.It has been preventing farming growing.
D.It has been getting more and more promising.
4.What is the best title for the text?
A.Forests Declined at a Record Pace B.Climate Change Causes Forest Loss
C.Primary Rainforest Struggled to Live D.Wildfires Are Driving Global Warming
【答案】1.D 2.D 3.B 4.A
【导语】文章主要讲述了全球森林损失加剧的现状、原因及国际协议落实不力的问题。
1.细节理解题。 根据第二段“The report shows that the world lost about 25,870 square miles of primary rainforest last year. That’s almost double the amount that was lost the year before last. It wasn’t just rainforests that disappeared more rapidly last year. Due to strong wildfire seasons in Canada and Russia, the world’s total tree cover loss increased by 5% last year compared to the year before last. In all, the world lost 115,830 square miles of forests last year. That’s an area roughly the size of Italy.(这份报告显示,去年全球损失了约2.587万平方英里的原始雨林,几乎比前年翻了一番。去年消失的不仅仅是雨林,受加拿大和俄罗斯野火季猛烈的影响,去年全球林木总覆盖损失较前年增加了5%。全年算下来,去年全球共损失了11.583万平方英里的森林,面积大致相当于一个意大利)”可知,这些数据是为了说明森林损失的面积之大,即其严重性。
2.推理判断题。 根据第三段中“Airplane travel is one of the world’s biggest sources of greenhouse gases. But last year, the amount of pollution released by forest fires was over four times greater than the pollution from all the world’s airplane travel the year before last.(航空旅行是全球最大的温室气体来源之一。但去年,森林火灾释放的污染量是前年全世界航空旅行产生的污染量的四倍多)”可知,作者将森林火灾的污染量与众所周知的航空旅行污染量作对比,是为了强调森林火灾对环境的巨大影响。
3.推理判断题。 根据第四段中“In 2021, the leaders of 140 countries signed an agreement to stop forest loss and begin increasing forest area by 2030. However, that’s not happening. WRI says that 17 of the 20 countries with the most primary forests are losing more forests now than when they signed the agreement.(2021年,140个国家领导人签署了一项协议,旨在到2030年停止森林损失并开始增加森林面积。然而,这并没有发生。世界资源研究所表示,拥有最多原始森林的20个国家中有17个现在的森林损失比签署协议时还要严重)”可知,协议签署后,大多数国家的森林损失反而增加了,这说明协议没有得到成功执行。
4.主旨大意题。 根据第一段中“Last year, the world lost more forests than ever before, according to researchers from the University of Maryland and the World Resources Institute (WRI) that released their latest report on the world’s forests.(根据马里兰大学和世界资源研究所发布的关于全球森林状况的最新报告,去年全球损失的森林比以往任何时候都要多)”以及全文围绕森林损失创纪录这一事实展开的具体数据分析可知,文章主要讲的是森林正在以创纪录的速度减少。由此可知,A项“森林以创纪录的速度减少”最适合作文章标题。
