Rushing to work,watching the stock(股票）market drop daily,working long into the night on a project,all of these situations can build up stress. Stress in such situations means pressure,conflict,loss of control,and uncertainty.These feelings can lead to a variety of problems.36What is stress? Stress is your body's physical and psychological response to anything you regard as overpowering.This may be viewed as a result of life's demands,and your lack of resources to meet them.37 This additional energy cannot be destroyed. If not used,it creates an imbalance within your system. Somehow the energy must be channeled into responses to regain a balance.38 Without some stress you would lose your energy for living.You will do well on certain amounts; but too much or too little stress will limit your effectiveness.Ideally, you find your best level of stress-the balance at which you are most motivated.39 It can make you spend your efforts on not being unhappy, rather than on being happy.You can become negatively influenced in your attitudes and feelings about your life more easily.In addition, medical research estimates as much as 90 percent of illness and disease is stress-related.40 High blood pressure and heart disease have been linked to stress factors.Most health professionals agree stress can be a contributing factor in making existing medical problems worse.A.These different attitudes influence a person's reaction to stressful situations.B.That is why stress has such an ugly ring.C.Stress is a natural part of your life.D.In each person's life there are uncertainties.E.When stressed,your body creates extra energy to protect itself.F.Stress can have a bad effect on your physical functioning and bodily processes.G. Too much stress influences your daily life.7选5阅读答案：36-40 BECGF这篇七选五文章是一篇说明文，介绍了压力产生的原因、适当的压力的作用和不当的压力所带来的不良影响和后果，甚至导致身体疾病。

But it wasn't through desperation that her circumstances changed: “I didn't get fed up and storm off, nothing like that; it was curiosity about other interests and wanting to experience something new."Fahey left her job and completed an MBA before setting up a move to New York to begin a degree. However, the opportunity of an open year between the MBA and the degree came up, and as a keen touring cyclist, Fahey realised that a much dreamed-about adventure was now becoming a possibility: “The ride in Africa had been on my fantasy list. It was a moment when I realized that I could do anything, so I should.Fahey rode across Africa,a 7,500-mile trip that took four months. The whole experience had a life-changing impact. Fahey said:“Bicycles provide a literal freedom. You don't allow yourself to feel like that in everyday life because there are so many distractions. But when you're out on the bike and there's nothing else, you're really free to experience what life is."Post-degree,Fahey worked on projects with the UNDP (United Nations Development Project) in Montenegro with the aim of bringing investment to rural communities.It was while working on these projects that the seeds were sown for the next new investment. “It was through my trip across Africa that I discovered pannier and rack (挂篓） systems inconvenient and I was never going to use them again." Little did she know this would lead her to start up her own company.In 2013,Apidura was born,producing storage solutions for people looking to travel the world by bike,race across continents and carry all they need to do so. It's now a successful global brand, but Fahey remains reflective about what else the company can do for people.24. Why did Fahey leave her job in Canada?A. She was bored with the job.B.She was disappointed with life.C. She wanted to add new dimensions to her life.D.She found it hard to adjust to the circumstances.25. Which can best describe Fahey's ride experience in Africa?A.Demanding.B. Liberating.C.Eventful.D.Dangerous.26.Why did Fahey launch Apidura?A. To encourage bicycle traveling.B. To make her investment profitable.C. To help cyclists carry traveling stuff.D. To increase the pleasure of riding bikes.27. What is the passage mainly about?A. A tough path to fame.B. An adventure across Africa.C. The benefits of green travelling.D. The story behind the birth of Apidura.CFolk tales have saddled (使承担）the moon with major responsibilities: moods, increases in crime and even mental disorders are blamed on the Earth's only constant natural satellite. But could the “lunar effect” disturb sleep?Scientists have long understood that human activity is facilitated by light, be it sunlight, moonlight or artificial light. But a recent study suggests our ability to sleep is distinctly affected by the lunar cycle, even when taking into account artificial sources of light.Using wrist monitors, researchers tracked sleep patterns in 98 individuals living in three local communities in Argentina over the course of one to two months. One rural community had no electricity access, a second rural community had limited access to electricity, while a third community was located in an urban setting and had full access to electricity.Participants in all three communities showed the same pattern of sleep oscillations (波动） as the moon progressed through its 29.5-day cycle, with sleep duration changing by between 20 and more than 90 minutes, and bedtimes varying by 30 to 80 minutes.In each community, the peak of participants sleeping less and staying up later occurred in the three-to-five-day period prior to full moon nights, and the opposite occurred on the nights before the new moon, the authors found.Unsurprisingly, data showed the “lunar phase effect” on sleep appeared to be stronger the more limited access to electricity was.“The result strongly suggests that human sleep is synchronized(同步）with lunar phases regardless of ethnic and socio- cultural background and of the level of urbanisation,” the researchers wrote in the journal Science Advances.De la Iglesia added: “We humans tend to believe that we managed to somehow control nature, and the use of artificial light is a great example of that. But it turns out that there are some forces of nature that we cannot get away from."Derk-Jan Dijk, a professor of sleep and physiology and the director of a sleep research centre at the University of Surrey, described the study as exciting but noted that the researchers had not addressed internal influences such as body clocks that could affect sleep patterns.28. What is the recent study mainly about?A. The harm of lunar effect.B. The reliability of folk tales.C. The function of artificial light.D. The effect of the lunar cycle on sleep.29. When did the participants in the experiment sleep least?A. On the full moon night.B. On the new moon night.C. On the night after the new moon.D.On the night before the full moon.30. What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph but one refer to?A. Controlling nature.B. The level of urbanisation.C.The escape from forces of nature.D. Synchronizing with lunar phases.31.What did Derk-Jan Dijk think of the research findings?A.Groundless.B.Persuasive.C.Incomplete.D. Impressive.DHigh-pitched(高音的）and yet distinct, the sound of a voice calling the name “Amy”is unmistakable. But this isn't a human cry-it's the voice of a killer whale called Wikie.New research reveals that orcas (杀人鲸） are able to imitate human speech, saying words such as “hello”，“one, two” and “bye hye". The study also shows that the creatures are able to copy unfamiliar sounds produced by other orcas.Writing in the journal Biological Sciences, researchers from institutions in Germany, UK, Spain and Chile, describe how they carried out the latest research with Wikie, a 14-year-old female orca living in an aquarium (水族馆） in France.After first brushing up Wikie's grasp of the “copy” command, she was trained to imitate three familiar orca sounds made by her 3-year-old Moana. Wikie was then additionally exposed to five orca sounds she had never heard before, including noises sounding like a creaking (嘎吱响） door. Finally, Wikie was exposed lo a human making three of the orca sounds, as well as six human sounds, including “hello”，“Amy”，“ah ha”，“one, two" and“bye bye”。

Jim and Andy walked along the beach,looking for an adventure.They joked that some day they would find a talking fish or a mermaid(美人鱼）or a bottle with a treasure map inside.So far they had only found shells and rocks and seaweed.Today though was different.The boys felt excited.Sea crabs(螃蟹）scampered(奔跑）on the rocks,up one side and down the other.They werequick and lively.The tide didn't seem to ever wash them away.

江苏省2021届高三最新英语试卷精选汇编：七选五专题
七选五专题江苏省天一中学2021届高三新高考统一适应性考前模拟试题第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Much of the work in today’s world is accomplished(完成)in teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. 36 Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent?37 They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the poin t where 70% of the players are top talent; above that level, the team’s performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isn’t evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the team’s performance.To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate(协调)their actions. 38 In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the team’s performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, “There is no I in TEAM.” 39Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war(拔河比赛), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force.40 . An A-team may require a balance—not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.A. It’s not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.B. Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talentC. The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers’ attention.D. Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.E. Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.F. Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.G. This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.7选5阅读答案：36-40 BEGDF本篇七选五讨论如何将团队的作用最大化，并根据研究得出一个好的团队不是简单的人才累加。

There are now well over 1,000 colleges and universities that don’t require SAT or ACT scores in deciding whom to admit, a number that is growing every year. 61 new study finds that scores on these tests are of little value in predicting students’ performance in college, and 62 (raise) the question: Should those tests be required at all?When a college considers test-optional admissions policies, the first 63 (react) people feel is that the college will admit less 64 (qualify) students. Actually, more students from diverse backgrounds 65 (admit) to colleges abolishing test scores and students graduate at a higher rate. 66 , some researchers question the impact the policies have had 67 schools. They argue that 68 the study is showing can’t prove test scores can be an obstacle for students. But two years’ worth of data clearly indicate that students who go into university with high test scores perform no better than 69 (they) fellow students. So the70 (add) value of test scores in predicting performance is minimal.If a college wants to do a better job serving traditionally under-served populations, test optional policies can provide a very useful tool. 第二节(共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分)61.

Now the island has a new luxury resort Caerula Mar Club- which opened this February. The once-abandoned property was discovered by a well-known HGTV reality star couple who transformed it into a hotel. The Canadian design duo Bryan and Sarah Baeumler were vacationing in the Bahamas in the summer of 2017 when they discovered a once-abandoned resort. They instantly decided to purchase it with hopes to transform the 10-acre beachfront property into a luxury hotel.However, they had no idea how much the investment would end up costing them. Here most supplies had to be shipped in, and the property was in bad shape. The budget for the remodelling should be around $ 4 million, but they've spent well over $ 10 million. What's worse, in the fall of 2019, category 5 Hurricane Dorian hit the Bahamas, and their employees and friends were affected.Finally, several months later, as they prepared to open the resort to the public, the Coronavirus pandemic （大流行病）struck. They'd just been fully booked throughout the fall and winter months when the new disaster stopped everything as the Bahamas were put on lockdown.With tourism opening up again, new plans are now for an October launch, but they're just taking things one day at a time.

With the time changing, Chinese university students show a typical characteristic in their after-school reading and this reflects the changes of thoughts and the quality of young people.The 1960s was the time for admiring heroes. Chinese university students had a thirst for reading heroic stories. Novels like The Song of Youth and How the Steel WasTempered became extremely popular among university students. Lei Feng's Diary and Selected Works of Mao Tse-tung were almost a must to read. Everyone had a copy of China Youth, an encouraging and helpful magazine for the young. Harvest and People's Literature were fashionable among them as well.University students in the 1970s were quite industrious in study. They spent much time in study than in spare-time reading. They wished to enrich their reading so as to improve self-cultivation and expand their knowledge. Masterpieces such as works of Shakespeare were popular, Lu Xun Selected Works and Ba Jin's trilogy were among the favorites of the students.The 1980s shot up many young lovers for literature. At that time, foreign and Chinese masterpieces, especially works of Hugo and Shelley were the books young people often read.A survey named “The book that impressed you most during 1985 to 1989” indicated that Jin Yong's works ranked the second and works of Qiong Yao and San Mao the sixth.In addition to romantic fiction and martial arts fiction, a new type of books — science fiction became popular among the male students in the 1990s. Apart from that, contemporary masterpieces including Chinese novels such as White Deer Plain, and foreign masterworks like War and Peace and The Thorn Birds were also popular.8．What is mainly described in the second paragraph?A．Real heroes in the 1960s.B．Foreign works in the 20th century.C．The role models in Chinese college students’ eyes.D．The popularity of heroic books among Chinese college students.9．What does the underlined word “industrious” in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Smart.B．Hard-working.C．Casual.D．Absent-minded.10．What can we learn from the text?A．University students in the 1960s read more than those in the 1970s.B．Female university students liked science fiction most in the 1990s.C．College students could choose to read from many books in the 1980s.D．The Thorn Birds was the most popular novel in the late 20th century.11．Which can be a suitable title for the text?A．Life Expectations of Chinese University Students.B．What Books University Students Have Read Most.C．Great Changes Have Taken Place in the Literary World.D．Changes in Spare-time Reading for Chinese University Students.Do you find yourself unable to go more than 15 minutes without reaching into your pocket, pulling out your smart phone and checking your e-mail or WeChat? Don't panic. You are hardly alone. A recent survey shows that smart phone users have developed "checking habit"—frequently checks of e-mails and other Apps. The checks normally lasted less than 30 seconds and were often done every 10minutes.On average, the study subjects check their phones 34 times a day. And the strangest part is that they don't even realize they are doing it. "I hadn't told my hand to reach out for the phone. It seemed to be doing it all on its own," wrote Elizabeth Cohen, a medical correspondent for CNN who watched her right hand sneaking away from her side to grab herphone while sitting on the table at dinner with friends.Loren Frank, a neuroscientist at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), explains that checking smart phones is rewarding in some way. "Each time you get an e-mail, it's a little bit exciting, because it means a positive feedback that you're an important person," Frank told CNN. Once the brain becomes used to this positive feedback, reaching out for the phone becomes an automatic action you don't even think about consciously, said Frank. Professor Clifford Nass of Stanford University added that constantly checking your smart phone is also “an attempt to not have to think hard but feel like you are doing something".However, every coin has two sides. This habit can cause problems. Study show that whenever you take a break from what you are doing to check your smart phone, it is hard to go back to your original task, according to Adam Gazzaley, a neurologist at UCSF. That's not the worst. A survey by South Korean marriage consulting agency Duo earlier this year shows that smart phones are destroying intimate relationships, reports The Korea Herald (韩国先驱报). About half or the respondents said they had had fights with their boyfriend or girlfriend because of smart phones. And 32.8 percent of them fought about smart phone obsession. In this respect, checking smart-phones at regular intervals is a bad habit. But just as an old saying goes, "Bad habits die hard.”So to get rid of the checking habit, Cohen suggests establishing phone-free times and zones.12．What is the most unusual part of the study subjects?A．The times of phone checks.B．The lasting time of phone checks.C．The unawareness of checking phones.D．The high frequency of checking phones.13．What does Loren Frank think of checking smart-phones frequently?A．It is worthwhile in some way.B．It is necessary to think hard.C．It is unimportant for those busy people.D．It is likely to cause neurological diseases.14．Which of the following is the worst effect of the “checking habit” has on phone users? A．They might not have a good rest.B．They would be taken in by other people.C．They might get distract from their work.D．They would lost time to keep close relationship.15．What is the main purpose of writing this passage?A．To introduce a smart-phone consumption survey.B．To present the obsession with smart-phone checking.C．To list the advantage of smart-phone checking habit.D．To offer the ways to quit smart-phone checking habit.二、七选五We automatically assume that as adults, we’re wiser than when we were children.

Do you want to try something new?Check out one of these hot new restaurants.Fast BestFast food doesn't have to be junk food, as this café proves. Do you fancy a really good hamburger made with the best ingredients, or old-fashioned fish and chips fried to perfection, all on the table in super-quick time? Speed and quality are important here, and the prices aren't bad either.Your Local Caff (小餐馆)Remember when cafés served full English breakfasts—sausages, beans, fried bread, bacon and eggs—with a strong cup of tea? Well, this place still does and you can have your breakfast at any time you like during the day while you listen to your favourite tunes from the 1980s.Last Days of the RajA centrally located Indian restaurant, perfect for eating before or after the cinema or a show.

For brave customers there is extra hot!The Chocolate BoxThe owner of this small café used to cook all kinds of food, but then she realised she preferred desserts to anything else. If you want meat or fish, don't come here. They only do desserts! Lots of different kinds of sweets. Chocolate lovers will be excited by the range of chocolate cakes.1.Fast Best suits a person ______.A.who has a sweet toothB.who loves spicy foodC.who wants to have good breakfastD.who gets 30 minutes off for lunch2.Which is true about Last Days of the Raj?A.You can listen to great music in it.B.It serves hot food with pepper.C.It serves an all-day breakfast.D.It is prefect for vegetarians.3.Which restaurant serves only desserts and sweets?A.Fast Best.B.Your Local Caff.st Days of the Raj.D.The Chocolate Box.BWatching what you eat can be easier said than done, but a recent study shows it might not just be about what's on your plate — it could be about how quickly it disappears.Japanese researchers followed 1,083 adultsfor five years, splitting them into three categories based on how quickly they ate: slow, normal, and fast. They also answered a questionnaire at the beginning of the study, sharing their diet, physical activity, and medical history. In the beginning, none of the volunteers had metabolic syndrome (新陈代谢综合征) - meaning at least three risk factors — which can lead to health problems like heart conditions and diabetes.When the participants reported back five years later 84 had been diagnosed (诊断) with metabolic syndrome — and their eating speed was a major predictor, according to the results in the journal Circulation. The fast eaters were 89 percent more likely to have metabolic syndrome than slow and normal eaters. Just 2.3 percent of slow eaters received the diagnosis, compared to 11.6 percent of fast eaters. But that's not all. Fast eaters also saw more weight gain, larger waistlines, and higher blood sugar levels than slow eaters.The researchers saygobblingmakes it easier not to take notice of fullness before your body has a chance to signal you to stop. “So when people eat fast they are more likely to overeat,” said Takayuki Yamaji, MD, study author and cardiologist at Hiroshima University in Japan in a statement.Previous research backs up the weight benefits of slow eating, too. One study of New Zealand women found fast eaters have higher body-mass indexes (指数), and a Chinese study found that both healthy and fat men ate less when told to chew 40 times instead of 15 times before swallowing. Initial research even suggests chewing your food longer could bum more calories - up to about 1,000 extra every month.4. What are the participants divided by?A. Medical history.B. Health condition.C. Physical activity.D. Eating speed.5. Which may be the result of the study?A. Fast eaters are 4 times more likely to have metabolic syndrome.B. Normal and slow eaters don’t have metabolic illness.C. 89% of fast eaters have higher blood pressure.D. Slow caters are healthier than fast eaters.6. What does the underlined word “gobbling” in Paragraph 4 best mean?A. Tasting slowly.B. Digesting quickly.C. Eating greedily.D. Cooking carefully.7. What does the last paragraph tell us?A. The importance of eating speed.B. The advantage of eating slowly.C. The result of a Chinese study.D. Fast eating and overeating.CNextdoor，an online social network for neighbors，says it has attracted $60 million from early backers of technology giants，Google，Amazon and Facebook.The new investment，1ed by venture firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers and investment firm Tiger Global Management，values Nextdoor at more than $500 million，said a personfamiliar with the matter.Nextdoor members make Facebook-style postings，giving or seeking recommendations for services such as babysitters and yard maintenance or local retailers and restaurants.

D. program when a colleague asked what I would do if I had an extra hour every day. Without much consideration, I said I would use it to help others. The question kept coming to my mind. Like many graduate students, I was overwhelmed (难以承受的) with research, teaching, coursework, and some attempt at a personal life. Still, I asked myself, "Do I really need a 25th hour to help other people-or do I need to make better use of the 24 hours I have?"I needed something to help me return to my old self. After that conversation with my colleague, I googled (谷歌搜索) “volunteer opportunities near me”. A local organization that drives people to stores or appointments was looking for volunteers. Having grown up in a rural village where everyone knew oneanother and my grandparents were always close by, I thought serving senior citizens in my new hometown might be just what I needed.A short time later, I started to volunteer for an organization that provides transportation for senior citizens and people with disabilities. To my surprise, adding this activity to my busy life was just what I needed to calm the confusion I was feeling as a first-generation international graduate student.I started to volunteer about 3 hours every weekend, the time I otherwise would have wasted oversleeping or scrolling (滚屏) through social media. Sharing stories with my riders was much more rewarding. What they told me about their lives helped me realize that in every corner of the world, humans are connected with thelanguageof emotions. And seeing how eager my riders were to spend time out and about inspired me to think about how to spend my time, which used to slip away. My previously overwhelming schedule began to feel manageable.I'm proud of who I have become, and I continue to reflect on how I'm using the most valuable thing in life: my time.12. Why did the author ask himself the question in Paragraph 1?A. He wanted to return to normal life.B. He was busy but wanted to help others.C. He couldn't bear too much school work.D.

He got it by surfing on the Internet.14. What made the author feel his volunteer job was worth doing?A. Communicating with his riders.B. Improving his language learning.C. Meeting his grandparents often.D. Realizing his previous dream.15. How did volunteering influence the author?A. It helped himbecome confident and efficient.B. He found a good way to live a free and quiet life.C. He realized he had wasted too much time pursuing his Ph.D.D. It inspired him to spare more time to accompany his grandparents.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

So she set out to work.The result was Safe Travel, an app designed by Medha to help walkers feel more secure when travelling alone. Using the iPhone, a person can program it to send a warning to someone he or she trusts if he or she fails to arrive at a destination within a certain time.It was the first iOS app that Medha had created. While she didn't think much would come from the project, her effort caught the eye of judges for the annual Congressional App. Challenge, who selected her as the winner for Virginia's 10th District.The App Challenge is designed to encourage students to consider careers in science, technology, engineering, and math by experimenting with coding and computer science. Winning students are invited lo attend a reception on Capitol Hill in April and also received $250 in Amazon Web Service credits.Medha said it took her about 40 hours to design, program and test the app. As for her next app? Medha's not certain. She temporarily has her app-development ambitionson holdbecause she's busy teaching herself artificialintelligence to help deal with improper words on Facebook. Yes,she knows that there are teams of engineers probably doing the same thing. But she figures it can't hurt her own part, too.“If we see something wrong with the world, we should do something about it,” she said. “After all, the only one stopping us from doing something is ourselves. ”4. Why did Medha Gupta feel worried?A. It took a long time to walk home.B. It was difficult to write an app.C. It was colder than ever in winter.D. It was unsafe to walk home alone.5.

The App Challenge directs students to choose careers.CConcrete is the world's most consumed material after water. Because it already surrounds us in the built environment, researchers have been exploring the idea of using concrete to store electricity—turning buildings into giant batteries. The idea has been gaining ground as we have come to increasingly rely on renewable energy from the wind and sun: rechargeable batteries are necessary when the breeze dies down or darkness falls.Experimental concrete batteries have only managed to hold a small part of what a traditional battery does. But one team now reports in Buildings that it has developed a rechargeable original model that could represent a more than 900 percent increase in stored charge, compared with earlier attempts.A live-in concrete battery might sound unlikely. Still, "you can make a battery out of a potato," notes Aimee Byrne. In a future where sustainability is key, she likes the idea of buildings that avoid waste by providing shelter and powering electronics.Although the new design stores more than 10 times as much power as earlier attempts, it still has a long way to go: 200 square meters of it "can provide about 8 percent of the daily electricity consumption" of a typical U.S. home, Zhang says.This is not enough to compete with today's rechargeable devices. "We're getting milliamps (毫安) out ofconcrete batteries—we're not getting amps (安培), "Byrne says." We're getting hours as opposed to days of charge." But she adds that" concrete batteries are completely in their childhood, compared to other battery designs." The earliest batteries were simple andbulky. Researchers experimented with new materials and designs for more than a century to develop today's small devices. Byrne suggests concrete-based energy storage could undergo a similar evolution. "The whole idea is that we're looking far into the future," she says. "We're playing the long game with it."8. What can we learn about the concrete batteries?A. They become increasingly renewable.B. They are the most consumed batteries.C. They are being developed by researchers.D. They will replace energy from the wind and sun.9. Why does Byrne mention a battery out of a potato?A. To show it is easy to build concrete batteries.B. To argue it is possible to develop concrete batteries.C. To make her statement more interesting.D. To call on people to protect the environment.10. What does the underlined word "bulky" in Paragraph 5 mean?A. HeavyB. CheapC. EfficientD. Small.11. What doesByrne think of concrete batteries?A. They beat today's rechargeable devices.B. They are simple and bulky.C. They have a doubtful future.D. They have a long way to go.DGray wolves have lived inNorth Americafor at least half a million years. Their living areas once included most of the continentalUnited States. But during the 1800s and early 1900s, wolves were hunted to near extinction(灭绝).By the 1960s, theU. S.wolf population was limited to a handful of creatures in small comers of the northernMidwest.Then, in 1973, a law, the ESA, was passed to protect animals from becoming extinct. Gray wolves were one of the first animals placed on the endangered-species(濒危物种)list. Killing them wasillicit. And theU. ernment worked to promote their protection. In a famous example of this effort, starting in 1995, 31 wolves were moved fromCanadatoYellowstoneNational Park. By 2015, more than 500 gray wolves were living in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem(生态系统).Today, the continentalU. S.is home to more than 6,000 gray wolves. On January 4, 2021, theU. ernment removed gray wolves from the endangered-species list.Usually, an animal's removal would be cause for celebration. But some environmental protectors say thewolves still need protection. In some parts of the country, wolves are increasing in numbers. More than a thousand of them can be found just inMichiganandWisconsin. But overall, their range is still a small part of what it was. Wolves used to live across most of the U. S. Now they , are found in fewer than a dozen states. Others argue that as long as a species is not in danger of extinction, it doesn't belong on the endangered-species list. And farmers with land near wolf living areas say that if the wolf's population continues to grow, more of their farm animals will be killed by wolves.But some protection groups worry that without protection, the wolf population will crash again. They hope that no matter what, people and wolves can get along peacefully with each other. They are promoting ways to make that happen.12. What caused gray wolves to be almost extinct?A. Losing their living areas.B. Too many natural enemies.C. The extreme climate changes.D. Being hunted in great numbers.13. What does the underlined word "illicit" in paragraph 2 mean?A. Rather difficult.B. Against the law.C. Totally normal.D. Conditionally allowable.14. Why was the gray wolf removed from the endangered-species list?A. They have a much larger population already.B. They have all been put into the safe natural parks.C. They have been feeding on farmers, farm animals.D. They have grown too strong to be protected by humans.15. What do farmers living near gray wolves' living areas think of the animals?A. The wolves are trouble for them.B. The wolves must be better protected.C. The wolves get along peacefully with them.D. The wolves should live where they belong.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
