Some experts believed that the cooling climate during the Ice Age was to blame for their extinction.Scientists reported last week they had studied genetic data from 59 cave bears. Their bones were recovered from seven countries: France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Serbia, Spain and Switzerland. From the genetic information, the scientists noted a decrease in the cave bear population beginning about 50,000 years ago. That is around the time of the arrival of Homo sapiens (现代人), or modern humans, in Eastern Europe. The researchers said they observed a sharp drop in the bears' numbers about 40,000 years ago. That coincides with(与……同时发生) the spread of Homo sapiens throughout Europe.The animals disappeared about 20,000 years ago. The cave bear lived in the Ice Age at the same time as other now extinct creatures. The bear was as big as a modern polar bear, but ate only plants. It appears often in prehistoric(史前的) cave paintings.There has been a scientific debate about what led to the extinction of the cave bear. Some scientists believe that the climate change greatly reduced the plants they needed, while others have blamed it on human activities, including hunting and taking over the caves where the bears gave birth and slept during winter. The bear's population remained largely unchanged for long periods before climate cooling, including during two noticeably cold periods and other cooling events.Homo sapiens appeared in Africa more than 300,000 years ago and later moved to other areas. The study offered new evidence that the arrival of Homo sapiens led to ruin for many kinds of animals across Eurasia, the Americas and Australia.1.How did scientists research on cave bears?A.By studying the bones found in some countries.B.By observing the paintings on the cave walls.C.By being told from generation to generation.D.By do research on the polar bears.2.When did the cave bear die out?A.About 50,000 years ago.B.About 40,000 years ago.C.About 20,000 years ago.D.More than 300,000 years ago.3.What can we learn according to the fourth paragraph?A.Sudden change in climate made cave bears die out.B.Cave bears couldn't adapt to the cold environment as quickly as possible.C.The loss of cave bears' habitats caused damage to their existence.D.Cold periods were very common thousands of years ago.4.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Humans Are Perhaps Partly to Blame for Cave Bears' DisappearanceB.Homo Sapiens Hunting Kinds of Animals across EurasiaC.A Debate about Why Cave Bears Suddenly DisappearedD.Scientists Studied Bones Discovered in Seven CountriesB(2021河北邢台高一上期中,)It is widely believed that biodiversity (生物多样性) is promoted to save species. But in reality species exist only as part of ecosystems and cannot survive unless their ecosystems are protected along with the diversity they contain as much as possible.Protecting habitats is important for keeping biodiversity. In 2003, over 102,000 habitats covering nearly 19 million square kilometres, or 11.5% of theworld's land surface,were under some form of protection. Though this has been a great improvement since 1962, when just l,000 protected habitats were listed, it is still not considered enough to stop the ecocide that is endangering the world's biodiversity.For a number of environmentalists, protecting the world's 25 biodiversity hotspots(热点地区) is critical to saving habitats and species. But many hotspots are endangered already, having lost up to three-quarters of their original plants.The poor state of most biodiversity hotspots results directly from population growth and migration(迁移) into these areas. A study found that by the mid-1990s around 1.1 billion people had lived in these hotspots. Moreover, the annual population growth rate in these areas was 1.8%, higher than the global average of 1.4%. The PAI report concluded that human-related environmental changes would continue to put pressure on hotspots. Therefore, keeping biodiversity requires paying close attention to population size.Protecting hotspots is not simply a matter of putting up fences or employing guards. The best results will be achieved when local people are educated about the value of wildlife, and actually gain a share of the benefits from eco-tourism. Only then do they have a chance to see the benefits of protecting hotspots.5.What can we infer from Paragraph 1?A.The loss of any species can affect humans.B.Endangered species are paid more attention to by humans.C.Species can still survive when their ecosystems are destroyed.D.Ecosystem protection is as important as diversity protection.6.What does the underlined word “ecocide” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Ecosystem protection.B.Reduction in the number of species.C.Serious damage to habitats.D.Habitat protection.7.What's the direct cause of the terrible state of the hotspots?A.Population growth in hotspots.B.Migration out of these areas.C.Global warming.D.The global average population growth rate.8.What's the author's opinion on protecting the hotspots?A.It's simple to carry out.B.It leads to the increase in tourists.C.It's closely connected with local people.D.It suggests that the local people be well educated.Ⅱ.七选五(2020山东德州高一上期末,)China has made great improvements in environmental protection during the past 70 years. 1 Each species on Earth has a role to play in the ecosystem.In recent decades,a series of wildlife-protection movements has been carried out by the central government. 2 The giant panda and the crested ibis(朱鹮) are among these successful stories.The giant panda used to have a population of 1,114 in the 1970s. It now totals 1,864 thanks to 52 protection areas. 3 By the end of last year, seven of the nine released pandas had survived in the wild. 4 In 1981,only seven crested ibises were found in Yang County,Shaanxi Province.Since then,breeding programs have helped the population reach 2,000. China has even sent crested ibises to Japan and South Korea in recent years to help with the species' survival.5 Key projects will be continually carried out to improveprotection,including making the lists of wild animals and plants under State protection,and also fighting against illegal wildlife trade, which includes the ivory(象牙)trade.A.Another species was once thought to be extinct.B.Protecting wildlife is, without doubt, an important part.C.China will continue its efforts in the wildlife protection.D.People call for immediate protection of the remaining species.E.Scientists have worked to feed pandas and then release them into the wild.F.As environmental damage has increased, signs of change have appeared around the world.G.Several species in danger of extinction have made impressive progress thanks to the methods.1. 2. 3. 4. 5.答案全解全析Part 1 Warming Up, Pre-reading, Reading &Comprehending基础过关练Ⅰ.1.decrease 2.hunt 3.certain 4.contain 5.affected6.employed7.appreciateⅡ.1.are being protected from 2.in peace 3.pay close attention to 4.burst into laughter 5.dying out 6.in relief 7.in danger ofⅢ.1.protection考查名词。

The other day I wrote an email to another classmate, Beth, in which I said some things about Rena that perhaps weren't very nice. Unluckily, when Beth was writing back to me, she accidentally forwarded(无意间转发) the message to Rena! Now Rena is really angry with me and won't talk to me, and Beth is unhappy as well. She's said sorry to me a hundred times already, but the harm is done. I feel bad, because I never would have said those things to Rena's face, but how do I get her to forgive(谅解) me? What should I do? JoeTo:**************From:***************Subject: Some adviceDate: 22/06/2005 10:45 AMDear Joe,This problem is more common than you might think! Email is very useful, but also very dangerous, as you don't know where your message might end up! First of all, you should say sorry right away to Rena. Explain that it was a mistake, and that you didn't mean to hurt her feelings. It may take time for her to be able to forgive you, but that's up to her.

Joe has said sorry to Rena many times alreadyD. Rena hasn't forgiven Joe yetBWhy don’t birds get lost on their long migratory (迁居的) flights? Scientists have puzzled over this question for many years. Now they’re beginning to fill in the blanks.Not long ago, experiments showed that birds rely on the sun to guide them during daylight hours. But what about birds that fly mainly by night? Tests with artificial (人造的) stars have proved conclusively that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights.One such bird—a warbler(鸣禽) —had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a natural sky. Yet it showed an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird’s cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky at migration time. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the direction of the make-be-live stars caused a change in the direction of his flight.Scientists think that warblers, when flying in daylight, use the sun for guidance. But the stars are apparently their principal means of navigation (导航). What do they do when the stars are hidden by clouds? Apparently, they find their way by such landmarks as mountain ranges, coast lines, and river cours es. But when it’s too dark to see these, the warblers circle helplessly, unable to get their direction.6. The reasons why birds don’t get lost on migratory flights ______ . .A. have been known to scientists for many yearsB. have only recently been discoveredC. are known by everyoneD. will probably remain a mystery7. The bird mentioned in this article ________ . .A. was captured and put in a cage by scientistsB. had never flown under a natural skyC. was tamed and tested by scientistsD. was a bird that can speak8. Warblers migrate _________ . .A. from North America to South AmericaB. only once during their lifetimeC. using what is apparently an inborn navigational abilityD. when they are freed from their cages9. When the stars are hidden by clouds, warblers find their way by _____ .A. an artificial starB. their inborn abilityC. some landmarksD. A and B10. This article is a good example of the way scientists _______ . .A. jump to conclusionsB. discover workable answers to general questions by studying particular cases.C. find a law and then investigate.(调查)D. are disappointed by the habits of animals.四.单词填空: 10小题(10分)请根据汉语提示或首字母写出单词的正确形式1.

单元质量评估(四)(时间:100分钟满分:120分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列的短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)项中选出最佳选项。

AAnimal conservationMany animal and plant species have become extinct and many more are in critical danger.Finding ways to protect the earth's wildlife and conserve the natural world they inhabit(居住)is now more important than ever.DodosThe Dodo is a classic example of how human caused damage to the earth's biology.The flightless Dodo was native to the Island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean.It lived off fruit fallen from the island's trees and lived unthreatened until humans arrived in 1505.The easily controlled bird became a source of food for sailors and was attacked by animals introduced to the Island by humans such as pigs, monkeys and rats.The population of Dodos rapidly decreased and the last one was killed in 1681.RhinosThe Rhino(犀牛)horn is a highly prized item for Asian medicine.This has led to the animal being hunted in its natural habitat.Once widespread in Africa and Eurasia,most Rhinos now live in protected natural parks and reserves(保护区).Their numbers have rapidly decreased in the last 50 years,and the animals remain under constant threat from poachers(偷袭者).The Giant PandaThe future of the World Wildlife Fund's symbol is far from certain.As few as 1,600 pandas remain in the wild.The Chinese government has set up 33 panda reserves to protect these beautiful animals and made poaching them punishable with 20 years in prison.However,the panda's distinct black and white patched coat fetches a high price on the black market and determined poachers still pose(造成)one of the most serious threats to the animal's continued existence.WhalesThe International Whaling Commission is fighting to ensure thesurvival of the whale species.Despite the fact that one-third of the world's oceans have been declared the whale sanctuaries(保护区).7 out of 13 whale species remain endangered.Hunted for their rich supply of oil,their numbers have decreased to just 300.Collisions with ships,poisonous pollution and being caught in fishing nets are other major causes of whale deaths.TigersThe last 100 years has seen a 95% reduction in the numbers of remaining tigers to between 5,000 and 7,000 and The Bali,Javan,and Caspian tigers are already extinct.The South China tiger is precariously close to disappearing,with only 20 to 30 still alive.Like the Rhino horn,tigers' bones and organs are sought after for traditional Chinese medicines.These items are traded illegally along with tiger skins.【语篇解读】文章介绍了已经灭绝了的和现在生存环境并不理想的一些濒危动物,旨在引起人们对动物保护的重视。

The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers tried to conquer (征服) Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, is part of the United Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.In the 1840s the main crop, potatoes, was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died of hunger. This, and a shortage (短缺) of work, forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result of these problems, the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.For many years, the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers. Today, many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things move at a quieter and slower pace.The Irish are famous for being warm-hearted and friendly. Oscar Wilde, a famous Irish writer, once said that the Irish were “the greatest talkers since the Greeks”. Since independence, Ireland has revived (复兴) its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments. Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc..16. What does the author tell us in Paragraph 1?A. How the Irish fought against the English.B. How Ireland gained independence.C. How English rulers tried to conquer Ireland.D. How two “Irelands” came into being.17. We learn from the text that in Ireland ________.A. food shortages in the 1840s led to a decline in populationB. people are moving to the cities for lack of work in the countrysideC. it is harder to make a living as a farmer than as a factory workerD. different kinds of old Irish songs are all sung with instruments18. The last paragraph is mainly about ________.A. the Irish characterB. Irish cultureC. Irish musical instrumentsD. a famous Irish writer19. What can be the best title for the text?A. Life in IrelandB. A Very Difficult HistoryC. Ireland, Past and PresentD. The Independence of IrelandⅣ.七选五Public Speaking and Critical ThinkingWhat is critical thinking? To a certain degree, it's a matter of logic (逻辑) — of being able to spot weaknesses in other people's arguments and to avoid them in your own. It also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence.In the broad sense, critical thinking is focused, organized thinking —the ability to see clearly the relationships among ideas. __20__ The greatest thinkers, scientists, and inventors have often taken information that was readily available and put it together differently to produce new ideas. That, too, is critical thinking.__21__ As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend a good deal of time organizing your speeches. While this may seem like a purely mechanical (机械的) exercise, it is closely connected with critical thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking is also disordered and confused. If, on the other hand, the structure is clear, there is a good chance your thinking is too. Organizing a speech is not just a matter of arranging the ideas you already have. __22__ What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking. __23__ As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language, you will improve your ability to think clearly and accurately. __24__ As you learn to listen critically to speeches in class, you will be better able to assess the ideas of speakers in a variety of situations.If you take full advantage of your speech class, you will be able to develop your skills as a critical thinker in many circumstances. This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education sincethe days of ancient Greece.A. Rather, it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.B. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.C. It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech.D. It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, only reorganized ideas.E. If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking class, the answer is quite a lot.F. The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more effective thinker in a number of ways.G. As you study the role of evidence and reasoning in speechmaking, you will see how they can be used in other forms of communication as well.Ⅴ.短文改错Last Sunday morning, when I was having a walk in the park near my home, I came across a crew make a new film with one of my favourite actor.I didn't have my camera with me at that time,but I rushed back home to get. Unfortunately, by the time I got back, they have finished the scene and the actor couldn't be seen everywhere. I was really disappointing and about to leave when he walked out a building. He was right there in the front of me! I couldn't believe my luck — not only did I had my photo taken with him,but he signed his name on my shirt!答案Ⅰ.词汇知识1.It was a pity that the great writer died ________ his works unfinished.A. forB. withC. fromD. of答案与解析B要排除die for, die from和die of的干扰。

Unit 4 Wildlife protection五年高考练阅读理解A(2021全国甲,B,)Port Lympne Reserve, which runs a breeding(繁育)programme, has welcomed the arrival of a rare black rhino calf(犀牛幼崽). When the tiny creature arrived on January 31, she became the 40th black rhino to be born at the reserve. And officials at Port Lympne were delighted with the new arrival, especially as black rhinos are known for being difficult to breed in captivity(圈养).Paul Beer, hea d of rhino section at Port Lympne, said:“Obviously we're all absolutely delighted to welcome another calf to our black rhino family. She's healthy, strong and already eager to play and explore. Her mother, Solio, is a first-time mum and she is doing a fantastic job. It's still a little too cold for them to go out into the open, but as soon as the weather warms up, I have no doubt that the little one will be out and about exploring and playing every day.”The adorable female calf is the second black rhino born this year at the reserve, but it is too early to tell if the calves will make good candidates to be returned to protected areas of the wild. The first rhino to be born at Port Lympne arrived on January 5 to first-time mother Kisima and weighed about 32kg. His mother, grandmother and great grandmother were all born at the reserve and still live there.According to the World Wildlife Fund, the global black rhino population has dropped as low as 5500, giving the rhinos a “critically endangered” status.词汇积累1.reserve n.保护区vt.预留,预定2.obviously adv.明显地3.fantanstic adj.极好的4.adorable adj.可爱的,讨人喜欢的5.candidate n.候选人6.critically endangered极度濒危的1.Which of the following best describes the breeding programme?A.Costly.B.Controversial.C.Ambitious.D.Successful.2.What does Paul Beer say about the new-born rhino?A.She loves staying with her mother.B.She dislikes outdoor activities.C.She is in good condition.D.She is sensitive to heat.3.What similar experience do Solio and Kisima have?A.They had their first born in January.B.They enjoyed exploring new places.C.They lived with their grandmothers.D.They were brought to the reserve young.4.What can be inferred about Port Lympne Reserve?A.The rhino section will be open to the public.B.It aims to control the number of the animals.C.It will continue to work with the World Wildlife Fund.D.Some of its rhinos may be sent to the protected wild areas.B(2020全国Ⅱ,C,)When you were trying to figure out what to buy for the environmentalist on your holiday list, fur probably didn't cross your mind. But some ecologists and fashion(时装)enthusiasts are trying to bring back the market for fur made from nutria(海狸鼠).Unusual fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn have showcased nutria fur mad e into clothes in different styles. “It sounds crazy to talk about guilt-free fur—unless you understand that the nutria are destroying vast wetlands every year,”says Cree McCree, project director of Righteous Fur.Scientists in Louisiana were so concerned that they decided to pay hunters $5 a tail. Some of the fur ends up in the fashion shows like the one in Brooklyn last month.Nutria were brought there from Argentina by fur farmers and let go into the wild. “The ecosystem down there can't handle this non-native species(物种). It's destroying the environment. It's them or us,”says Michael Massimi, an expert in this field.The fur trade kept nutria in check for decades, but when the market for nutria collapsed in the late 1980s, the cat-sized animals multiplied like crazy.Biologist Edmond Mouton runs the nutria control program for Louisiana. He says it's not easy to convince people that nutria fur is green, but he has no doubt about it. Hunters bring in more than 300,000 nutria tails a year, so part of Mouton's job these days is trying to promote fur.Then there's Righteous Fur and its unusual fashions. Model Paige Morgan says, “To give people a guilt-free option that they can wear without someone throwing paint on them—I think that's going to be a massive thing, at least here in New York.”Designer Jennifer Anderson admits it took her a while to come around to the opinion that using nutria fur for her creations is morally acceptable. She's trying to come up with a label to attach to nutria fashions to show it is eco-friendly. 词汇积累1.environmentalist n.环保主义者2.ecologist n.生态学家3.enthusiast n.热心者,热烈的支持者4.bring back使再度流行;使恢复5.showcase vt.使展现6.multiply vt.繁殖7.promote vt.提高;促进;促销8.option n.选择9.massive adj.巨大的10.morally adv.道德上11.acceptable adj.可接受的;令人满意的5.What is the purpose of the fashion shows in New Orleans and Brooklyn?A.To promote guilt-free fur.B.To expand the fashion market.C.To introduce a new brand.D.To celebrate a winter holiday.6.Why are scientists concerned about nutria?A.Nutria damage the ecosystem seriously.B.Nutria are an endangered species.C.Nutria hurt local cat-sized animals.D.Nutria are illegally hunted.7.What does the underlined word “collapsed” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A.Boomed.B.Became mature.C.Remained stable.D.Crashed.8.What can we infer about wearing fur in New York according to Morgan?A.It's formal.B.It's risky.C.It's harmful.D.It's traditional.C(2019天津,C,)How does an ecosystem(生态系统) work? What makes the populations of different species the way they are? Why are there so many flies and so few wolves? To find an answer, scientists have built mathematical models of food webs, noting who eats whom and how much each one eats.With such models, scientists have found out some key principles operating in food webs. Most food webs, for instance, consist of many weak links rather than a few strong ones. When a predator(掠食动物) always eats huge numbers of a single prey(猎物), the two species are strongly linked; when a predator lives on various species, they are weakly linked. Food webs may be dominated by many weak links because that arrangement is more stable over the long term. If a predator can eat several species, it can survive the extinction(灭绝)of one of them. And if a predator can move on to another species that is easier to find when a prey species becomes rare, the switch allows the original prey to recover. The weak links may thus keep species from driving one another to extinction.Mathematical models have also revealed that food webs may be unstable, where small changes of top predators can lead to big effects throughout entire ecosystems. In the 1960s, scientists proposed that predators at the top of a food web had a surprising amount of control over the size of populations of other species—including species they did not directly attack.And unplanned human activities have proved the idea of top-down control by top predators to be true. In the ocean, we fished for top predators such as cod on an industrial scale, while on land, we killed off large predators such as wolves. These actions have greatly affected the ecological balance.Scientists have built an early-warning system based on mathematical models. Ideally, the system would tell us when to adapt human activities that are pushing an ecosystem toward a breakdown or would even allow us to pull an ecosystem back from the borderline. Prevention is key, scientists say, because once ecosystems pass their tipping point(临界点), it is remarkably difficult for them to return.词汇积累1.note vt.指出;注意;留意n.笔记2.consist of由……组成3.dominate vt.支配;控制4.arrangement n.安排5.stable adj.稳定的6.original adj.最初的;原创的7.reveal vt.揭示;揭露8.throughout adv.遍及;到处;自始至终9.propose vt.提议;建议10.scale n.规模11.ecological balance 生态平衡12.borderline n.分界线9.What have scientists discovered with the help of mathematical models of food webs?A.The living habits of species in food webs.B.The rules governing food webs of the ecosystems.C.The approaches to studying the species in the ecosystems.D.The differences between weak and strong links in food webs.10.A strong link is found between two species when a predator .A.has a wide food choiceB.can easily find new preyC.sticks to one prey speciesD.can quickly move to another place11.What will happen if the populations of top predators in a food web greatly decline?A.The prey species they directly attack will die out.B.The species they indirectly attack will turn into top predators.C.The living environment of other species will remain unchanged.D.The populations of other species will experience unexpected changes.12.What conclusion can be drawn from the examples in Paragraph 4?A.Uncontrolled human activities greatly upset ecosystems.B.Rapid economic development threatens animal habitats.C.Species of commercial value dominate other species.D.Industrial activities help keep food webs stable.13.How does an early-warning system help us maintain the ecological balance?A.By getting illegal practices under control.B.By stopping us from killing large predators.C.By bringing the broken-down ecosystems back to normal.D.By signaling the urgent need for taking preventive action.答案全解全析五年高考练A◎语篇解读本文为说明文,主题语境为人与自然,主题语境内容为人与动植物。

Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever.Hundreds more are on the danger list today.About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.Why should people care? Because we need animals. And because once they are gone, there will never be any more.Animals are more than beautiful or interesting or a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems.For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks (鹰), the farmers' stores of corn and grain were destroyed by mice. Why? Because hawks eat mice. With no hawks to keep down their numbers, the mice multiplied quickly.Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments topass laws protecting animals in danger.Quite a few countries have passed laws.These laws forbid the killing of any animal or plant on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.【语篇解读】本文是一篇关于动物保护的说明文。

You can’t be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.If you have a heada che, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure, I think you should go to the doctor.The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature , sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed. After that he will advise some treatment, or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advi ce.Speaking about doctor’s advice, I can’t help telling you a funny story.An old gentleman came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakne ss, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said th ere was no medicine for hisdisease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a goodrest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wineevery day and take long walks. In other words, the doctor advised him tofollow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.“ But you know, doctor,” he said, “it’s not easy to begi n smoking at myage.”41. The writer thinks that_____.A. health is more important than wealthB. work is as important as studiesC. medicine is more important than pleasureD. nothing is more important than money42. The doctor usually tells his patient what to do______.A. without examining the patientB. after he has examined the patientC. if the patient doesn’t take medicineD. unless the patient feels pain43. The underlined part means “”.A. he was feeling better than everB. he wasn’t a healthy manC. he was feeling worse than beforeD. he will be well again44. From the last sentence of the passage, we learn the man_______ before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day.A. was a heavy smokerB. didn’t smoke so muchC. didn’t smokeD. began to learn to smoke45. Which of the following is NOT true?A. The doctor usually tests his/her blood pressure when a person is ill.B. The man told the doctor he couldn’t remember things.C. The man thanked the doctor.D. The man didn’t follow the doctor’s advice.BIt doesn’t matter when and how much a person sleeps , but everyone needs some rest to stay alive. That’s what all doctors thought , until they heard about Herpin. Herpin, it was sai d , never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised . Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping. In fact , he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.46. The main idea of this passage is that_____rge numbers of people do not need sleepB. a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleepC.everyone needs some sleep to stay aliveD.people can live longer by trying not to sleep47. The doctors came to visit Herpin, expecting_____A.to cure him of his sleeplessnessB.to find that his sleeplessness was not really trueC.to find out why some old people did not need any sleepD.to find a way to free people from the need of sleeping48. After watching him closely, the doctors came to believe that Al herpin_____A.needed some kind of sleepB.was too old to need any sleepC.needed no sleep at allD.often sleep in a chair49. One reason that might explain Herpin’s sleeplessness was _____A.his mother’s injury before he was bornB.that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habitC.his magnificent physical conditionD.th at he hadn’t got a bed50. Al Herpin’s condition could be regarded as ______A. a common oneB.one that could be curedC.very healthyD. a rare oneCAs a teenager in 1972, Bill Gates once said that he would be a millionaire by the time he was 20. Onl y 15 years later he was a billionaire. And by 1992,as head of the Microsoft company, he became the richest man in American with assets (资产) of about US$ 6.3 billion.Gates was born in Seattle, Washington on 28, October 1956. He first started to play with the comput er at the age of 13 at his school. At that time, computers were very large machines. Operators were re quired to learn complex computer languages before the machines could be used. Even then, a great d eal of time and effort was needed to perform the simplest functions. Before long Gates was an expert at working the school’s computer. After his graduation from secondary school, Gates was accepted b y the three top universities in the USA---Princeton. Harvard and Yale. He chose Harvard and began c lasses there the next autumn, majoring in maths. But he spent as much time in the computer laborato ries as he did in the lecture halls.By 1975, Gates and a partner, Paul Allen, had developed a software program called BASIC. This wa s not the first program ever created, but its inventorswere the first to decide that people who wanted to use it should pay for it.BASIC was a success because until it came along there had been no efficient way of getting compute rs to carry out instructions. Although he had not yetcompleted his degree, Gates left university and went to work full time for the new company he had f ormed called Microsoft.His next project was the software program that made him famous and veryrich. It was called DOS, short for Disk Operating System, and it was boughtby IBM in 1980. Today it is the operating system used in more than 14 million personal computers ar ound the world.As chief executive officer of Microsoft, Gates is known as a bright man. To most people, Gates, in sp ite of his wealth, is humble and ordinary. He spends his money carefully and often eats in fast-food r estaurants.51. When he was a teenager, Bill Gates wanted to be______.A. an engineerB. a scientistC. a businessmanD. a professor52. Bill Gates became a billionaire______.A. at the age of 31B. in 1985C. in the 1970’sD. by 199253.

Before the invention of BASIC, software programs____.A. were very cheapB. were not considered commercially (商业地)C. were very expensiveD. were complex but dull55. Bill Gates was regarded as______.A. a strong-minded manB. a crazy manC. a man spending freelyD. a common, normal personDKing Midas used to love gold.

Unit 4 Wildlife protection单元达标检测(满分:120分;时间:100分钟)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

AThe kakapo is the world's heaviest and only flightless parrot. Now, some scientists are using advanced technology to rescue the endangered kakapos. If successful, the techniques used may help save other bird species as well.The few remaining kakapos live on three small islands, where their progress can be monitored through a smart device. Once found in large numbers across New Zealand, the cute bird, which can weigh up to 11 pounds (about 5 kilograms), is now heading to extinction. While cruel predators (捕食者) such as foxes, cats, and snakes are largely to blame, the kakapo's strange habits of laying eggs don't help either. For starters, the parrots, which can live up to 100 years, do not start laying eggs until the age of five.Scientists have set up individual feeding stations for all the birds to keep track of how much they eat. Given the difficulties in increasing the population, it is not surprising that only 114 adult parrots remain. Though the number is low, it is a great improvement over the 51 kakapos that remained on Earth in 1995. The increase of its population results from the government's decision to remove the 51 birds to three small predator-free islands off the coast of New Zealand, and the efforts of a team led by Andrew Digby, a kakapo scientist for the New Zealand Department of Conservation.A four-day-old kakapo chick will receive a health check. Young chicks in nests are examined and weighed every night, to ensure they are healthy.Once the birds lay eggs, the eggs are carefully moved from the nests and taken to a hatching (孵化) room to hatch. “We tend to be more successful at raising kakapoeggs than the kakapo,” says Digby. “We break less of them. ” Once the eggs hatch, each mother is given only one chick, while the rest of the newborns are hand-fed (人工喂养). This helps ensure they all receive enough food.1.What makes the kakapo unique in the parrot family?A.Its food.B.Its way of hatching.C.Its feather.D.Its flightless heavy body.2.What effort did the government make to protect the kakapos in 1995?A.Giving the kakapos a new home without natural enemies.B.Setting up individual feeding stations for the kakapos.C.Building a fence to keep the predators away.D.Driving all the predators nearby away.3.Why is each mother kakapo given only one baby chick?A.To help the mother kakapo keep laying eggs.B.To make every chick get enough food to survive.C.To protect the mother kakapo from the predators.D.To protect the chick from being killed by accident.BWildlife officials are using robotic bears to catch poachers(盗猎者)before they can do any damage to real bears.Robotic taxidermal animals are serving as a new kind of undercover agents. Wildlife officers are using them to attract and catch poachers across the United States, according to the Washington Post.The officers set up the animals in environments where shooting them is illegal and then wait out of sight for poachers who attempt to shoot.They can control the robots with a remote. Although the robotic animals can't walk or run, they are capable of making smaller movements like lifting their legs or turning their heads. And as recent reports suggest, they're realistic enough to be effective in attracting poachers.Companies such as Robotic Decoys and Custom Robotic Wildlife sell a variety of mechanical animals, including deer, foxes, and bears. Mike Kleman, owner ofRobotic Decoys,explains that he makes the animals by following the general taxidermy procedure of fastening a hide to a form. But then,he adds servo motors(伺服电动机)—the type also used in model cars and airplanes—to the neck,ears,tail,or legs. His robo-animals can be controlled using a radio remote or soon, an app.Kleman's company is based in Wisconsin, but they ship to officers around the country.The robo-animals range from around $700 for a fox to $4,800 for a moose, but organizations such as the Humane Society Wildlife Land Trust ease the financial burden by donating robotic animals to cash-lacked government agencies.The organization has donated robotic animals to agencies in 16 differentstates,according to its website.And in the future, the robo-animal agents could help deal with international poaching problems, too.“I would like to figure out how to make rhinos,”Kleman told Popular Science.“There's a big issue overseas about rhino poaching.”4.Robotic animals are .ed to attract wild animalsB.viewed as a new kind of animals to raiseC.set up secretly to protect wildlifeD.well-known all over the world5.What can we infer from the text?A.The design of the robot animals is very good.B.The robot animals are cheap for organizations to buy.C.The servo motors make cars and airplanes go fast.D.The cash-lacked government agencies thanked Kleman so much.6.What do Kleman's words in the last paragraph mean?A.He will travel abroad to protect rhinos.B.He will continue working to make robot rhinos.C.He will think about how to raise rhinos.D.He will do research on how to protect rhinos.7.What may be the best title of the text?A.Kleman and His Robotic AnimalsB.The Research on Robotic AnimalsC.Wildlife Is in Danger of Being HuntedD.Robotic Animals Are Helping to Catch PoachersCOne reaction to all the concern about tropical deforestation(森林砍伐)is a blank stare that asks the question, “Since I don't live there, what does it have to do with me?”The answer is that your way of life, wherever you live in the world, is tied to the tropics(热带地区) in many ways. If you live in a house, wash your hair, eat fruits and vegetables, drink soda, or drive a car, you can be certain that you are affected by the loss of tropical forests.Biologically, we are losing the richest regions on earth when, each minute, a piece of tropical forest, the size of ten city blocks, disappears. As many as five million species of plants, animals, and insects (40 to 50 percent of all living things) live there, and are being lost faster than they can be found and described. Their loss is immeasurable(不行估量的).Take rubber for example. For many uses, only natural rubber from trees will do. Synthetics are not good enough. Today over half the world's commercial rubber is produced in Malaysia and Indonesia, while the Amazon's rubber industry produces much of the world's four million tons. And rubber is an important material in making gloves, balloons, footwear(鞋类) and many sporting goods. Thousands of other tropical plants are valuable for their industrial use.Many scientists strongly believe that deforestation contributes to the greenhouse effect—or heat of the earth from increased carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) in the atmosphere. As we destroy forests, we lose their ability to change carbon dioxide into oxygen.Carbon dioxide levels could double within the next half-century, warming the earth by as much as 4.5 degrees. The result?Polar ice caps partially melt, raising sea levels as much as 24 feet; even 15 feet could threaten anyone living within 35 miles of the coast. Unbelievable? Maybe. But scientists warn that by the time we realize the serious effects of tropical deforestation, it will be 20 years late.Can tropical deforestation affect our everyday life? Now, you should have got the answer.8.What does the underlined word “Synthetics” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Natural rubber materials.B.Tropical materials.C.Man-made materials.mercial rubber materials.9.In the last paragraph the author tries to .A.tell people how to avoid the tropical deforestationB.persuade people to buy something syntheticC.warn people of the disastrous results of tropical deforestationD.let people understand what tropical deforestation is10.What's the author's attitude towards the tropical deforestation?A.Neutral.B.Approving.C.Doubtful.D.Disapproving.其次节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列的短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)项中选出最佳选项。

A
Animal conservation
Many animal and plant species have become extinct and many more are in critical danger.Finding ways to protect the earth's wildlife and conserve the natural world
they inhabit(居住)is now more important than ever.
Dodos
The Dodo is a classic example of how human caused damage to the earth's biology.The flightless Dodo was native to the Island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean.It lived off fruit fallen from the island's trees and lived unthreatened until humans arrived in 1505.The easily controlled bird became a source of food for sailors and was attacked by animals introduced to the Island by humans such as pigs, monkeys and rats.The population of Dodos rapidly decreased and the last
one was killed in 1681.
Rhinos
The Rhino(犀牛)horn is a highly prized item for Asian medicine.This has led
to the animal being hunted in its natural habitat.Once widespread in Africa and Eurasia,most Rhinos now live in protected natural parks and reserves(保护区).Their numbers have rapidly decreased in the last 50 years,and the animals remain under
constant threat from poachers(偷袭者).
The Giant Panda
The future of the World Wildlife Fund's symbol is far from certain.As few as
1,600 pandas remain in the wild.The Chinese government has set up 33 panda reserves to protect these beautiful animals and made poaching them punishable with 20 years in prison.However,the panda's distinct black and white patched coat fetches a high price on the black market and determined poachers still pose(造成)one of the most
serious threats to the animal's continued existence.
Whales
The International Whaling Commission is fighting to ensure the survival of the whale species.Despite the fact that one-third of the world's oceans have been declared the whale sanctuaries(保护区).7 out of 13 whale species remain endangered.Hunted for their rich supply of oil,their numbers have decreased to just 300.Collisions with ships,poisonous pollution and being caught in fishing
nets are other major causes of whale deaths.
Tigers
The last 100 years has seen a 95% reduction in the numbers of remaining tigers
to between 5,000 and 7,000 and The Bali,Javan,and Caspian tigers are already extinct.The South China tiger is precariously close to disappearing,with only 20 to 30 still alive.Like the Rhino horn,tigers' bones and organs are sought after for traditional Chinese medicines.These items are traded illegally along with tiger
skins.【语篇解读】文章介绍了已经灭绝了的和现在生存环境并不理想的一些濒危动物,旨。
