Unit 5　What an adventure! (限时:35分钟) ●Ⅰ 阅读理解 A [2025·福建福州高三第二次质检] 文体:记叙文　主题:人与自然　词数:328 Susan Tsang’s journey to becoming a field biologist is as unconventional as it is inspiring. Growing up in New York City, Susan spent four hours daily on commute (通勤) to school, leaving little time for outdoor exploration. It made her an unlikely candidate for a career in field biology. Susan’s enthusiasm for the natural world was fueled during a visit to the American Museum of Natural History. The dinosaur fossils (化石) awakened her desire to explore nature, which eventually led her to pursue a PhD programme focused on bat biology. Susan’s first field exploration was to Indonesia, with the task of catching wild bats. With her advisor unable to help, Susan teamed up with Sigit, an experienced local researcher. They excitedly set up nets for trapping bats near a waterfall. While preparing their equipment, they discovered a bamboo structure leaking fresh water. Thinking it might be useful for their base camp, they tried to fix it, only to have water erupt everywhere, soaking (浸湿) them completely. Unfortunately, a storm was approaching. Realizing their day was lost, they walked back to base camp. They talked and laughed, forming a deep bond. This adventure provided Susan with not only practical skills but also an invaluable lesson about adaptability and teamwork. It enhanced the significance of practical experience. She recognized that true understanding comes from directly observing the subjects of study—views that cannot be gained only from textbooks. Over the years, whenever faced with doubts regarding her capability, she remembers what her advisor told her about the experience, “The first day you came back, completely wet, yet genuinely happy. The next day you went right back out. That’s when I knew this is where you truly belonged.” Susan Tsang’s journey illustrates the transformative power of experience and perseverance. From a city girl to a committed field biologist, Susan’s success highlights the importance of pursuing one’s enthusiasm, no matter the odds. (　)1.What inspired Susan’s interest in the natural world? A.A museum visit. B.Her daily trip to school. C.A field exploration. D.Her childhood education. (　)2.What does Paragraph 3 mainly describe about Susan’s first field experience?

B.It brought her doubts about her capability. C.She developed a sense of career belonging. D.It deepened knowledge gained in the book. (　)4.What accounted for Susan’s change? A.The power of passion.

B [2025·河北邢台高三二模] 文体:说明文　主题:人与自然　词数:343 About 300 years ago, some travellers along the Upper and Middle Orinoco River first reported sightings of mysterious rock engravings (版画), describing snakes and other patterns, along its shores. But as years passed, these artworks were recorded only in oral traditions and locals’ word of mouth. The precise location and proof of their existence remained absent. It wasn’t until 2015 that a team of archaeologists first arrived in the region with the goal of searching for clues of the artworks. After years of study, scientists found even more than they had anticipated. The team visited 157 sites that had rock art, 13 of which had engravings more than a dozen feet tall. A great variety of figures are described, including insects, birds, humans and other animals. In all, 60 individual engravings exceeded 30-foot dimensions, including a centipede (蜈蚣) and two figures. “Anything that size is monumental in our view,” Philip Riris, the study’s lead author, says. “That means they’re often visible from quite far away, maybe 500 metres to a kilometre.” But no creature was more common in the rock faces than snakes, of which the team found dozens. Interestingly, the team found that all of the snakes faced the river and were engraved where its waterline would have been two thousand years ago. The engravings would have been visible from higher ground, and certainly by those in incoming boats, leading the team to assume that they were used as territorial markers, boundaries, and landmarks. The team unearthed pottery (陶器) from the ecosystem. It had similar markings to those in rock and dates back about 2,000 years. The team estimates the engravings are about the same age and some 10,000 ancient rock engravings exist within a 1,000 square-mile area along the river. “The giant snake engravings studied in the paper are some of the largest single rock art images anywhere in the world and mainly come from the heart of a lowland tropical environment,” Patrick Roberts, an archaeologist at the Max Planck Institute, says. (　)5.Why did the archaeologists go to the region in 2015? A.To map the river’s waterline. B.To study the local oral traditions. C.To find evidence of the rock engravings. D.To explore the biodiversity of the region. (　)6.How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed? A.By listing data. B.By quoting documents. C.By making assumptions. D.By drawing comparisons. (　)7.What could the snake engravings have mainly functioned as? A.Donation. B.Admiration. C.Decoration. D.Indication. (　)8.What does Patrick Roberts mention about the giant snake engravings? A.Their distribution. B.Their components. C.Their symbolic meanings. D.Their impact on the environment. ●Ⅱ 语法填空 [2025·辽宁抚顺省重点高中六校 协作体高三二模] 文体:新闻报道　主题:人与自然　词数:249 The 14th Chinese Arctic scientific expedition (探险) team recently completed its mission, and Liu, 1.　　　　 teacher at the Jiangsu Shipping College in Nantong serving as the second mate on the icebreaker for this expedition, effectively 2.　　　　　　　　(ensure) navigation (航行) safety.  “This is actually a quiet and attractive region, 3.　　　　 pure blue rivers shine brightly against white snow.

(阅读A, Para.3) 【分析】 thinking it might be useful for their base camp是现在分词短语作原因状语,其逻辑主语与主句主语they一致;only to have water erupt everywhere是动词不定式短语作结果状语,常表示出乎意料或令人失望的结果;soaking (浸湿) them completely是现在分词短语作结果状语,对前文water erupt everywhere的结果进一步补充说明。 【译文】 他们觉得这东西或许对营地有用,便试图修理它,不料水流瞬间四处喷涌,将他们淋得浑身湿透。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 5　What an adventure! ●ⅠA 【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述的是Susan Tsang从一个城市女孩成长为一名致力于野外生物学的研究者,通过她的首次野外考察经历,展示了热情和坚持如何引领她找到职业归属感。 1.A　细节理解题。根据第二段“Susan’s enthusiasm for the natural world was fueled during a visit to the American Museum of Natural History. The dinosaur fossils (化石) awakened her desire to explore nature, which eventually led her to pursue a PhD programme focused on bat biology.”可知,一次博物馆参观激发了Susan对自然世界的兴趣。故选A。 2.D　段落大意题。根据第三段中的“With her advisor unable to help, Susan teamed up with Sigit, an experienced local researcher. They excitedly set up nets for trapping bats near a waterfall. While preparing their equipment, they discovered a bamboo structure leaking fresh water. Thinking it might be useful for their base camp, they tried to fix it, only to have water erupt everywhere, soaking (浸湿) them completely. Unfortunately, a storm was approaching. Realizing their day was lost, they walked back to base camp.”可知,本段讲述了Susan首次去印尼野外探险抓蝙蝠,在准备设备时遇到竹子结构漏水弄湿自己,又遇暴风雨等情况,说明这次经历充满挑战。所以第三段主要描述了Susan首次野外经历的挑战。故选D。 3.C　推理判断题。根据第四段中“Over the years, whenever faced with doubts regarding her capability, she remembers what her advisor told her about the experience, ‘The first day you came back, completely wet, yet genuinely happy. The next day you went right back out. That’s when I knew this is where you truly belonged.’”可知,去印尼的这次旅行让Susan产生了一种职业归属感。故选C。 4.A　推理判断题。通读全文,并结合第二段提到博物馆参观激发她对自然的兴趣,以及最后一段“Susan Tsang’s journey illustrates the transformative power of experience and perseverance. From a city girl to a committed field biologist, Susan’s success highlights the importance of pursuing one’s enthusiasm, no matter the odds.”可推知,是热情的力量促使Susan发生了改变。故选A。 B 【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍的是考古学家在奥里诺科河流域发现巨型蛇形岩刻的过程及其作为地理标志的重要意义。 5.C　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“It wasn’t until 2015 that a team of archaeologists first arrived in the region with the goal of searching for clues of the artworks.”可知,2015年考古学家去该地区是为了寻找岩石版画的证据。故选C。 6.A　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The team visited 157 sites that had rock art, 13 of which had engravings more than a dozen feet tall. A great variety of figures are described, including insects, birds, humans and other animals. In all, 60 individual engravings exceeded 30-foot dimensions, including a centipede (蜈蚣) and two figures.”(该团队参观了157个有岩石艺术的遗址,其中13个遗址的版画超过十几英尺高。描绘了各种各样的形象,包括昆虫、鸟类、人类和其他动物。总共有60个单独的版画超过30英尺,包括一只蜈蚣和两个人物形象。)可推知,第二段主要通过列举参观的遗址数量、存在高版画的遗址数量、单独版画的数量等数据来展开。故选A。 7.D　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Interestingly, the team found that all of the snakes faced the river and were engraved where its waterline would have been two thousand years ago. The engravings would have been visible from higher ground, and certainly by those in incoming boats, leading the team to assume that they were used as territorial markers, boundaries, and landmarks.”(有趣的是,这个团队发现所有的蛇都面向河流,并且刻在两千年前的水线位置。从较高的地方可以看到这些版画,当然乘船而来的人也能看到,这使得团队假设它们被用作领土标记、边界和地标。)可知,蛇形版画主要功能是作为指示。故选D。 8.A　细节理解题。根据最后一段“‘The giant snake engravings studied in the paper are some of the largest single rock art images anywhere in the world and mainly come from the heart of a lowland tropical environment,’ Patrick Roberts, an archaeologist at the Max Planck Institute, says.”(马克斯·普朗克研究所的考古学家帕特里克·罗伯茨说:“论文中研究的巨型蛇版画是世界上最大的单个岩石艺术图像中的一些,主要来自低地热带环境的中心地区。”)可知,帕特里克·罗伯茨提到了巨型蛇版画的分布。故选A。 ●Ⅱ 【文章大意】 本文为一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了第十四支中国北极科学探险队最近完成了任务,其二副对此任务的感受和期待。 1.a　考查冠词。teacher“老师”为可数名词,且此处泛指“来自南通江苏航运职业技术学院的一名老师”,故应用不定冠词,且teacher是发音以辅音音素开头的单词,应用a。故填a。 2.ensured　考查动词时态和语态。此处作谓语,主语为Liu,与ensure之间为主动关系,且根据前文的completed可知,此处描述过去发生的事情,故应用一般过去时。故填ensured。 3.where　考查定语从句。此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是region,指地点,关系词在从句中作地点状语,故应用where引导定语从句。故填where。 4.challenges　考查名词复数。此处challenge“挑战”为可数名词,根据空前的a variety of可知,此处应使用复数形式作宾语。故填challenges。 5.reaching　考查非谓语动词。此处为非谓语动词作状语,逻辑主语the ice和动词reach之间是主动关系,故应用现在分词作状语。故填reaching。 6.extremely　考查副词。此处修饰形容词difficult,应用副词extremely“极其”作状语。故填extremely。 7.in　考查介词。根据句意可知,此处意为“陷入……中”,表达为get stuck in…。故填in。 8.be changed　考查动词语态。it指代前文的route planning,与change之间为被动关系,且此处为need to do结构。故填be changed。 9.unfamiliar　考查形容词。根据语境可知,此处与后文的familiar形成对比,应使用其反义词unfamiliar“不熟悉的”作表语。故填unfamiliar。 10.asked　考查非谓语动词。此处为非谓语动词作状语,逻辑主语Liu和ask之间是被动关系,应用过去分词作状语。故填asked。 ●Ⅲ 【文章大意】 这是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了作者在一名当地导游的陪同下去探索婆罗洲的野生动植物的经历。 1.C　根据空前的turned off the smooth road和空后的hillside instead可知,他们走的是一个崎岖的山坡。故选C。rolling起伏的;spectacular壮丽的;rough粗糙的,不平的,条件艰苦的;breathtaking令人惊叹的。 2.A　根据句中的popped into my view可知,这里表示他们在行路的过程中突然看到了一朵迷人的花。故选A。suddenly突然;literally字面上;definitely肯定,确实;intimately密切地。 3.B　根据上文中的a charming flower和句中的“…I bent down and put my nose practically inside the flower’s core.”可知,作者看到这朵花时非常高兴,忍不住把鼻子凑到花心去闻。故选B。alarmed害怕的;pleased高兴的,满意的;concerned担心的;upset失望的,沮丧的。 4.A　根据句中的to my surprise和上下文语境可知,这里表示转折,虽然这朵花很迷人,但这只是旅途路上的亮点之一。故选A。nevertheless尽管如此,然而;besides此外;instead反而;therefore因此。 5.D　根据空前的one of和下文中的“…there was still something I had yet to see.”可知,路上有许多精彩的事物,这朵花只是其中一个亮点。故选D。desire愿望,欲望;motivation动机;destination目的地;highlight最好(或最精彩、最激动人心)的部分。 6.C　根据空后的the end of my trip可知,这里表示旅行接近尾声。故选C。summarize总结,概括;suspect怀疑;approach靠近,接近;value重视。 7.D　根据上文中的“…there was still something I had yet to see.”可知,作者还有许多东西没看到,所以他们计划去寻找咸水鳄鱼。故选D。hold onto抓紧;pick up拿起;reflect on沉思;hunt for搜索,寻找。 8.B　根据空后的of 6 metres or more并结合常识可知,这里指咸水鳄鱼的长度。故选B。width宽度;length长度;height高度;size尺寸,大小。 9.A　根据下文中的“…we saw clearly it was a crocodile.”可知,水里有咸水鳄鱼,所以他们用手电筒照的时候听到了黑暗中发出的一些微弱声音。故选A。emerge(从隐蔽处或暗处)出现,浮现;pause暂停;continue持续;decline下降,衰落。 10.B　根据句中的something unseen underwater和下文中的above the waterline可知,他们听到了黑暗中发出的一些微弱声音,好像是水下看不见的东西打破水面的声音。故选B。mud泥;surface表面;ground地面;shore岸,滨。 11.C　根据空前的two greedy并结合常识可知,鳄鱼在水中时常常将头露出水面观察,这里指他们看到了鳄鱼的两只贪婪的眼睛。故选C。leg腿;mouth嘴;eye眼睛;tooth牙齿。 12.A　根据句中的“As we drew near…”可知,当作者他们走近鳄鱼时,鳄鱼动了一下。故选A。move移动;sink下沉;bid投标;escape逃跑。 13.D　根据句中的“…we neared it…”和空后的its true dimensions可知,作者他们走近看时才辨认出鳄鱼的真实大小。故选D。give out分发;let out发出,放出;turn out结果是,证明是;make out辨认出,听出,看出。 14.C　根据空后的“…back home, who had never been to Borneo…”可知,这里指的是家里从未去过婆罗洲的人。故选C。victim受害者;opponent对手,竞争者;folks家人;guide导游。 15.B　根据空后的a hungry crocodile in the wild可知,这里指在野外遇到一条饥饿的鳄鱼。故选B。challenge挑战;encounter遭遇,遇到;terrify使恐惧;chase追逐。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
