Imagine a world with no more wild animals: no elephants, no tigers or lions. To some people, that thought is too terrible for words. So they are doing something about it. Tiffany Soechting is one of them.
Being among wild animals—feeding them and caring for them—is all Tiffany Soechting has wanted to do with her life. And that is exactly what she does!
Soechting is the human “mother” to the 500 animals that live on her family wildlife farm in San Antonio. Besides her animal caring, Soechting also holds monthly classes, where she teaches school children about the animals.
Soechting also opens the farm to the public. Visitors can not only learn about the animals, but also get close to them. And the animals are not against that. For them, people are part of their natural environment.
The farm is part conservation area, part educational centre and part animal park. As the animals walk peacefully around the grounds, it is easy for them to forget that San Antonio, a busy city, is just a few minutes away.
1. What’s implied in the sentence “Soechting is the human ‘mother’ to the 500 animals”
A. She has already married and has some children.
B. The animals on the farm are taken good care of.
C. The animals can get along well with each other.
D. She teaches school children about animals well.
解析：推理判断题。通过这句话可以看出Soechting把这些动物当作自己的孩子来看待。由此可知,这些动物得到了很好的照顾。故选B。
答案：B
2. What kind of person is Soechting according to the passage
A. Confident but lazy.
B. Humorous and lovely.
C. Wise but careless.
D. Kind and hard-working.
解析：推理判断题。通过Soechting照顾动物可以看出她很善良。从她保护动物的具体行动可以看出她很勤劳。故选D。
答案：D
3. What’s the best title of the passage
A. How to Save Wild Animals
B. Soechting and Her Wild Animals
C. San Antonio’s Animal Park
D. A World Without Wild Animals
解析：主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了Soechting致力于保护野生动物的故事,文章主体是Soechting和野生动物。故选B。
答案：B
B
After years of heated debate, gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park. Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park. By last year, the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170.
Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States, but they were gradually displaced by human development. By the 1920s, wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area.
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results. Deer and elk populations—major food sources(来源) for the wolf—grew rapidly. These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation(植被), which reduced plant diversity in the park. In the absence of wolves, coyote populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park’s red foxes, and completely drove away the park’s beavers.
As early as 1966, biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park. The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone. Elk, deer, and coyote populations are down, while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback. The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.
4. What is the passage mainly about
A. Wildlife research in the United States.
B. Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.
C. The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.
D. The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.
解析：主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“… gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park.”和最后一段第二句“The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves.”可知,文章主要介绍了黄石公园当地政府重新引进灰狼的计划。故选D。
答案：D
5. What does the underlined word “displaced” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Tested. B. Separated.
C. Forced out. D. Tracked down.
解析：词义猜测题。根据第二段内容可知,在黄石国家公园,灰狼曾经随处可见,但是到了20世纪20年代,由于人类活动频繁导致灰狼基本消失,由此可以推测灰狼因为人类的发展而被迫离开。force out 意为“赶出去”,与displace 意思相近。故选C。
答案：C
6. What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about
A. Damage to local ecology.
B. A decline in the park’s income.
C. Preservation of vegetation.
D. An increase in the variety of animals.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知,灰狼的减少造成了鹿群的增多,从而导致植被遭到了破坏;而且红狐和海狸也不断减少,由此推断灰狼的消失对当地生态系统造成了破坏。故选A。
答案：A
7. What is the author’s attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project
A. Doubtful. B. Positive.
C. Disapproving. D. Uncaring.
解析：推理判断题。根据文章末段末句可知,作者认为引进灰狼的项目是很有价值的实验,是很值得推广的。故选B。
答案：B
C
The sixth mass extinction of life on the earth is unfolding more quickly than expected, scientists have warned. More than 30 percent of animals with a backbone are declining in both range and population, according to the first comprehensive analysis of these trends.
Around a decade ago, experts feared that a new range wipeout of species was appearing. Today, most agree that it is underway, but the new study suggests that the die-out is already growing fast.
The loss of biodiversity has recently accelerated. Several species of mammals that were relatively safe one or two decades ago are now endangered, including cheetahs, lions and giraffes, the study showed.
There is no mystery as to why: our own ever-expanding species—which has more than doubled in number since 1960 to 7.4 billion—is eating, crowding and polluting its planetary cohabitants out of existence. By comparison, there are as few as 20,000 lions left in the wild, less than 7,000 cheetahs, 500 to 1,000 giant pandas.
The main drivers of wildlife decline are habitat loss, over-consumption, pollution, other species, disease, as well as hunting in the case of tigers, elephants, rhinos and other large animals prized for their body parts.
Climate change is thought to become a major threat in the coming decades, with some animals—most famously polar bears—already in decline due to rising temperatures and changing weather patterns.
8. What does the underlined word “accelerated” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Made up. B. Put up.
C. Sped up. D. Used up.
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词下文“Several species of mammals that were relatively safe one or two decades ago are now endangered, including cheetahs, lions and giraffes, the study showed.”可知,研究显示,包括猎豹、狮子以及长颈鹿在内的数种哺乳动物在一二十年前还相对安全,然而现在处于濒危状态。因此推断画线词所在句句意为“生物多样性的减少最近也加速了”。故画线词与C项“加速”词义相近。故选C。
答案：C
9. Why has the loss of biodiversity sped up
A. The mankind’s population is growing fast.
B. The air pollution is too severe.
C. There are fewer species in larger areas.
D. Man causes wider water pollution.
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“There is no mystery as to why: our own ever-expanding species—which has more than doubled in number since 1960 to 7.4 billion—is eating, crowding and polluting its planetary cohabitants out of existence.”可知,引发生物大灭绝的原因显而易见:人类不断繁衍壮大,人口达到74亿,相比1960年不止翻了一番。人们以动物为食,同时还污染环境,让其他动物们无法生存。由此可知,人口的快速增长是生物多样性减少的原因。故选A。
答案：A
10. How is the future of polar bears
A. Uncertain. B. Hopeful.
C. Doubtful. D. Unsatisfying.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段的“with some animals—most famously polar bears—already in decline due to rising temperatures and changing weather patterns”可知,气候变化在未来的几十年将成为生物灭绝的主要因素。由于气温升高,气候变化,一些动物,比如最著名的北极熊,已经在减少。因此推断北极熊的未来是令人不满意的。故选D。
答案：D
11. What is the main idea of the passage
A. All animals are now endangered.
B. Wildlife habitat loss is too serious.
C. The wildlife extinction is speeding up.
D. Backbone animals are decreasing slowly.
解析：主旨大意题。结合文章首段中出现的词extinction以及全文内容可知,本文主要讲述了野生动物濒临灭绝的原因。故选C。
答案：C
D

答案:
WHAT YOU EAT IS NOT A PANGOLIN,
MAYBE A SPECIES.
The pangolin is a forest protector. However, some people ignore its importance to nature and consider it as a delicacy. It is now more endangered than pandas.
The government now stops anyone from buying and eating pangolins in China. Breaking this law is regarded as a crime. We must pay attention to the bad situation faced by pangolins. Otherwise this species will disappear from the earth. Remember: a diner, an indirect killer. No buying and selling, no harming.

答案:
Dear students,
You may have not seen many wild animals, but they do exist, and some do have disappeared. Wild animals can be our friends, accompanying us on the earth. In other words, the wildlife adds to the diversity and the liveliness of the earth. However, many people take it for granted that humans can treat wild animals as they like. It is too selfish to kill wild animals to make profits or satisfy one’s “unique” taste. On the other hand, it is unfair for
humans to occupy the homes of wild animals. Wild animals
won’t attack humans deliberately. Why must we kill them and even remove them from the earth No one would die without eating wild animals. No one would die of cold without a coat made of wild animals’ fur. No one would live better just because wearing an ornament made of ivory. So there should be no excuse for harming wild animals right now. Only when we change our attitude to wild animals and live in harmony with them, can they live peacefully in their kingdom.
To value wild animals is to treasure humankind themselves. So, now, let’s join up and do our share to protect the wildlife!
Thank you.Section Ⅴ Assessing Your Progress & Video Time

Do you know what to do if you see a bird with a broken wing in your backyard, or a hurt raccoon(浣熊) by the side of the road Use your phone!
It’s never a good idea to touch a wild animal or to try to help one without professional guidance. The animal might be dangerous to you, and you could cause further injury without meaning to.
That’s why the wildlife rescue organisation Animal Watch has created a new mobile app. The app helps users find the right solutions for animals that need urgent(紧急的) care.
Animal Help Now uses your phone’s GPS to find where the animal is located. Then the app asks questions about the animal:Is it wild or raised by humans Is it a pet or a farm animal Could the animal put humans in danger
Based on the location, the time of day, the type of animal,and the injury,Animal Help Now will suggest a care provider that’s right for your situation. For wild animals, the app might suggest a nearby rescue facility that specialises in wounded wildlife. Or it might point you to registered care takers who nurse animals that have been hurt in the wild back to health. For pets or farm animals, the app lists the nearest veterinarians(兽医) who care for the type of animal that has been injured.
“The app is designed to work even when you don’t have cell or Internet access,”Animal Watch director Dave Craw-ford tells National Public Radio.
“So whether you’re driving through a remote area on the eastern Colorado plains, hiking a trail in Rocky Mountain National Park,or simply passing through a dead zone on your way to work, you’ll still be able to immediately find the help you need.” For now,Animal Help Now works only in Colorado,where Animal Watch is based. But the organisation hopes to include information for users across the country.

A. You may become a danger to them.
B. You may do more harm to them.

答案：B
B
Every year, more people recognise that it is wrong to kill wildlife for “sport”. Progress in this direction is slow because shooting is not a sport for watching, and only those few who take part in it realise the cruelty and destruction.
The number of gunners, however, grows rapidly. Children too young to develop proper judgments through independent thought are led a long way away by their gunning parents. They are subjected to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting as good for their health and gun-carrying as a way of putting redder blood in the veins(静脉).They are persuaded by gunner magazines with stories honouring the chase and the kill. In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate a desire to own a gun.
Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because of the loss of wild land habitat. Habitat loss will continue with our increasing population, but can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting There doesn’t seem to be any chance if the serious condition of our birds is not improved.
Wildlife belongs to everyone and not to the gunners alone. Although most people do not shoot,they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it. The only answer,then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting to the great majority of people.
Now, it is time to realise that animals have the same right to live as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures. The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of dying can make nobody happy. If, as they would have you believe, gun-carrying and killing improve the human character, then perhaps we should encourage wars.
5. According to the text, how many reasons cause the wildlife to disappear
A. 1. B. 2. C. 3. D. 4.
解析：细节理解题。由第三段第一句“Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because of the loss of wild land habitat.”可知选B。
答案：B
6. Why don’t most people seem to be against hunting
A. They have little knowledge of it.
B. It helps to build the human character.
C. It is too costly to stop killing wildlife.
D. They want to keep wildlife under control.
解析：细节理解题。由第四段第二句“Although most people do not shoot,they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it.”可知选A。
答案：A
7. What does the underlined word “agony” in the last paragraph probably mean

解析：词义猜测题。画线词所在句的后半句意为“但是我们知道伤害动物和看着动物们经历死亡的痛苦是让每个人都高兴不起来的事情”。agony极大的痛苦。故选C。
答案：C

Good news for giant panda lovers: The cute and cuddly creature has just been brought back from the brink of extinction.
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) downgraded the species from “endangered” to “vulnerable” as the union released its updated Red List on Sept. 4 at Hawaii.
The downgrading came after IUCN data suggested that there were 1,864 giant pandas in the wild in China in 2014—their population has grown by 17 percent in the decade leading up to 2014.
Chinese conservation efforts, including forest protection and reforestation, are considered to be the driving force behind the animal’s resurgence.
“It’s all about restoring the habitats,” Craig Hilton-Taylor, head of the IUCN Red List, told the BBC.
The number of panda reserves in China has also jumped to 67, from 13 in 1992. Nearly two-thirds of all wild pandas live in these reserves, according to the World Wildlife Fund.
“Just by restoring the panda’s habitat, that’s given them back their space and made food available to them,” Hilton-Taylor said.
A loss of habitats, on the contrary, was what caused the number of pandas to drop to just over 1,200 in the 1980s, Hilton-Taylor added.
Apart from giant pandas, the Tibetan antelope has also moved from “endangered” to “near threatened”. According to a statement from IUCN, the animal’s numbers dwindled severely—dropping from around 1 million to an estimated 65,000 -72,500 in the 1980s and early 1990s—due to commercial poaching. Rigorous(严格的) protection has since been enforced to protect the beasts and the population is now likely to be between 100,000 and 150,000.
Despite the improved statuses, wild animals like the giant panda and the Tibetan antelope still face great challenges. The IUCN warned, for example, that ongoing threats from climate change could eliminate more than 35 percent of the panda’s bamboo habitat in the next 80 years, which would reverse the species’ recent gains.
1. What does the underlined word in paragraph 2 mean
A. Dangerous and threatened. B. Safe and sound.
C. Weak and easily hurt. D. Normal and common.
解析：词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“downgraded”可知,9月4日,世界自然保护联盟于夏威夷发布了最新的濒危物种红色名录。其中,大熊猫的濒危程度从“濒危”降级为“易危”。故选C。
答案：C
2. Which of the following can account for pandas’ living improvement
A. Better climate.
B. More built reserves.
C. Well restored habitats.
D. Aroused public awareness.
解析：细节理解题。根据第七段的“Just by restoring the panda’s habitat, that’s given them back their space and made food available to them …”可知,通过恢复栖息地,大熊猫重获了生存空间和充足的食物。故选C。
答案：C
3. What does the last paragraph imply
A. The climate will influence the threatened species.
B. We humans still have a long way to go to protect the endangered species.
C. Pandas will go extinct for lack of abundant food.
D. Habitats for giant pandas will decrease sharply.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Despite the improved statuses, wild animals like the giant panda and the Tibetan antelope still face great challenges.”可知,尽管情况有所好转,但大熊猫和藏羚羊等野生动物依然面临着严峻的生存挑战,人类保护濒危物种仍然有很长的一段路要走。故选B。
答案：B
B
I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organisation at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking: survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.
I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2- to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.
I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.
The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.
Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.
A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recording. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all—LUNCH!The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.
4. What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to paragraph 1
A. Efforts made in vain.
B. Getting injured in his work.
C. Feeling uncertain about his future.
D. Creatures forced out of their homes.
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段第二句话“Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking: survival is never certain.”可知救助受伤的、流离失所的、生病的动物是令人心碎的,因为作者不知道救助的动物是否能活下去,也就是说作者为救助而花费的努力可能会白费,这是不可避免的。故选A。
答案：A
5. Why was the author called to Muttontown
A. To rescue a woman.
B. To take care of a woman.
C. To look at a baby owl.
D. To cure a young owl.
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“She had found a young owl on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2- to 3-week-old owl.”可知作者被叫去该地方的原因是查看幼小的猫头鹰,文中并没有说小猫头鹰受伤了。故选C。
答案：C
6. What made the chick calm down
A. A new nest. B. Some food.
C. A recording. D. Its parents.
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中“I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.”可知作者在把小猫头鹰放在窝里之后,它很快就安静下来,所以是新窝让猫头鹰安静下来的。故选A。
答案：A
7. How would the author feel about the outcome of the event
A. It’s unexpected. B. It’s beautiful.
C. It’s humorous. D. It’s discouraging.
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all”和第一段中的“However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.”可得知作者的感受是美好的。故选B。
答案：B

2. Summarise the rules of stressed syllables according to the above examples.
(1) 一般两个或三个音节的单词,重读在第一个音节上。但如果这个单词是带有前缀的,则重读在前缀后。如:a bove en courage
(2) 三个或以上音节的单词,重读在倒数第三个音节上。
如: family
(3) 带有后缀的单词,重读在这些后缀的前一个音节上(以下后缀除外: -ed、 -es、 -er、 -est、 -or、 -ary、 -ory、 -ment、 -ous、 -cy、 -ry、 -ty、 -al、 -ure、 -ute、 -ble、 -ar、 -ly、 -less、
