二、阅读理解
For humans, adapting to climate change will mostly be a matter of technology. More air conditioning, better-designed houses and bigger flood defenses may help lessen the effects of a warmer world. Animals will have to rely on changing their bodies or their behaviour. In a paper published in Trends in Ecology & Evolution, a team led by Sara Ryding, a professor in Australia, shows that is already happening. In some species of Australian parrot, for instance beak(喙) size has increased by between 4% and 10%since 1871. Similar trends are seen in species of mice and bats growing bigger ears, tails, legs and wings.
All that fits nicely with evolutionary(进化的) theory. "Allen's rule", named after Joe Allen, who suggested it in 1877, holds that warm-blooded animals in hot places tend to have larger appendages(附加物) than those in mild areas. Such adaptations boost an animal's surface area relative to its body volume, helping it to get rid of additional heal. Fennec foxes, meanwhile, which are native to the Sahara desert, have strikingly large ears, especially compared with their Arctic cousins.
Ryding's team combined data from different species in different places. Now that they have little in common apart from living on a warming planet, climate change is the most reasonable explanation. Since any evolutionary adaptation comes with trade-offs, it is unclear how far the process might go. Bigger beaks might interfere with feeding, for instance. Larger wings are heavier, and bigger legs cost more energy to grow.
Honestly, studying a broader range of animals will help firm up exactly what is happening. For now, at least, the increase is small, never much more than 10%. That may change as warming accelerates. Every little bit of avoided future temperature increases results in less warming that would otherwise slay for essentially forever.
1.Why do some species grow bigger parts of their body
A.They are following the new trends.
B.They have to adapt to warmer climate.
C.Scientists need them to do experiments.
D.Larger parts tend to help them feed well.
2.Where may warm-blooded animals have bigger body parts
A.In mild areas. B.In hot places. C.In the Arctic. D.In deserted regions.
3.What do we know about the change in animals from the last two paragraphs
A.It comes at a cost. B.Its cause is definite.
C.It happens in the same habitat. D.Its process will end soon.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.Living on a Warming Planet B.Measures to Remove Heat
C.Pioneering Research on Animals D.Evolution to Survive Heat

答案以及解析
一、填空
1.答案:that
解析:考查强调句型。句意: 直到近信的结尾处她才提到自己的计划。"It is/was not until...that..."为强调句型, 强调not until..., 意为"直到......才......"。
2.答案:that
解析:考查强调句型。句意:正是爱和坚毅帮助我们控制了新冠病毒,恢复了平静而美好的生活。此处为强调句型"It is+被强调部分+that+其余部分",被强调部分为love and perseverance,故填that。
3.答案:that
解析:句意为: 正是在我们回家的时候, 我才意识到帮助遇到困难的人的感觉是多么好。分析句子结构可知, 该句为强调句, 强调when引导的时间状语从句, 故填that。
4.答案:grow
解析:本句为完全倒装结构。表示地点的介词短语Inside the well-known garden位于句首,句子用完全倒装,该空应填谓语动词, 主语a variety of beautiful flowers为复数形式,本句描述一般性情况, 应用一般现在时,故填grow。
5.答案:have
解析:句意为: 我很少见到使老师这么生气的情况。seldom为否定副词, 置于句首时, 句子要部分倒装, 且主语是I, 后面有过去分词seen, 所以助动词应用have。
6.答案:does
解析:考查倒装句、时态和主谓一致。句意:光速太快了,我们几乎没法想象它的速度。当so后接形容词或副词位于句首时,其后通常用部分倒装,即将be动词/助动词/情态动词移至主语前。此处应用助动词来进行倒装,因主语为light,描述的是客观情况,故用does。
7.答案:tired
解析:考查状语从句省略。句意:每天晚饭后,如果工作不累,我会花一些时间来遛狗。if引导的条件状语从句中, 从句主语与主句主语一致且谓语部分含有be动词则可以省略主语和be动词,恢复后为:if I am not tired from work ,故填tired。
8.答案:to
解析:句意: Tom想和他的朋友们在操场上踢足球, 但是他的父亲告诉他不要去。不定式符号to后省略了与第一个分句中相同的内容, 此处省略了play football with his friends on the playground。
9.答案:convenient
解析:句意: 如果方便的话, 这周末我将去拜访你并和你讨论一下下一步做什么。在此句中If convenient是If it is convenient (for you)的省略。
10.答案:serving
解析:考查状语从句的省略。句意:她发球时出现了失误,导致她输掉了比赛。when serving the ball是状语从句的省略,省略了she was。
二、阅读理解
答案:1.B; 2.B; 3.A; 4.D
解析:1.推理判断题。根据第一段"Animals will have to rely on changing their bodies or their behaviour."(动物将不得不依靠改变自己的身体或行为。)可知,有些物种长得更大是因为它们必须适应更温暖的气候。故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据第二段"Alen's rule", named after Joe Allen, who suggested it in 1877, holds that warm-blooded animals in hot places tend to have larger appendages(附加物) than those in mild areas."(以乔·艾伦在I877年提出的艾伦法则命名的艾伦法则认为,生活在炎热地区的温血动物往往比生活在温和地区的温血动物有更大的附肢。)可知,温血动物在炎热的地方可能有更大的身体部位。故选B。
3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段"Since any evolutionary adaptation comes with trade-offs, it is unclear how far the process might go, Bigger beaks might interfere with feeding, for instance.Larger wings are heavier, and bigger legs cost more energy to grow."(化适应都会带来权衡,因此尚不清楚这一过程会走多远。例如,较大的喙可能会妨碍进食。更大的翅膀更重,更大的腿需要更多的能量才能成长。)可知,动物的变化是有代价的。故选A。
4.主旨大意题。根据第一段"Animals will have to rely on changing their bodies or their behaviour."(动物将不得不依靠改变自己的身体或行为。)以及全文大意,本文主要讲述了全球变暖的影响可以在动物身上看到,数百种物种显示出适应气候变暖的迹象。文章具体叙述了气候变化与进化的联系。Evolution to Survive Heat(在高温下生存的进化)符合题意。故选D。
三、语法填空
答案:1. leaving2. to ensure3. established4. a5. be exchanged6. for7. what8. cooperation9. members10. creative
解析:
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了琳达·塔特高中的学生现在不用离开校园就可以领取生活必需品。据美国有线电视新闻网报道,这所位于德克萨斯州桑格的高中成立了一个由学生经营的杂货店,接受积分作为付款,以确保所有学生都能在节日期间得到他们需要的物品。
【小题1】考查非谓语动词。句意:琳达·塔特高中的学生现在不用离开校园就可以领取生活必需品。空前的介词without,所给的词leave为动词,根据介词后跟动词时需跟动名词形式。故填leaving。
【小题2】考查非谓语动词。句意:据美国有线电视新闻网报道,这所位于德克萨斯州桑格的高中成立了一个由学生经营的杂货店,接受积分作为付款,以确保所有学生都能在节日期间得到他们需要的物品。此处用动词的不定式作目的状语。故填to ensure。
【小题3】考查动词的时态。句意:今年11月初,琳达·塔特高中(Linda Tutt High)成立了这家杂货店来帮助他们。根据时间状语"earlier this November"可知,此处用所给动词的过去式。故填established。
【小题4】考查固定短语。句意:这个地区的每个孩子一开始都有一定数量的分数,这取决于他们家里有多少人。a number of为固定短语,意为"许多"。故填a。
【小题5】考查被动语态。句意:在杂货店,积分可以用来交换肉、卫生纸和厨房用品等商品。points 与exchange 存在逻辑上的动宾关系,故用所给动词的被动语态,又因为空前有情态动词can,故此处用be exchanged。故填be exchanged。
【小题6】考查介词。句意:学生志愿者负责上架,管理存货,并帮助同伴找到他们想要的东西。be responsible for... 为固定短语,意为"负责......"。故填for。
【小题7】考查名词性从句。句意:学生志愿者负责上架,管理存货,并帮助同伴找到他们想要的东西。分析句子结构可知,该空引导的是一个宾语从句,从句缺少宾语且指物,故此处用连接代词what。故填what。
【小题8】考查名词。句意:这个学校商店是琳达·塔特、避难所、德克萨斯卫生资源和艾伯森斯杂货店之间的合作。根据空前的冠词the可知,此处用所给动词的名词形式。故填cooperation。
【小题9】考查名词。句意:每周二有一个小时的时间,对社区的其他成员开放。member是可数名词,空前的修饰词是other,故此处用其复数。故填members。
【小题10】考查形容词。句意:琳达·塔特并不是唯一一所以创造性的方式为学生提供资源的高中。此处用所给动词的形容词来修饰空后的名词way。故填creative。
