Ⅴ.阅读理解
What do th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e following animals have in common Pandas, rhinoceros, Mexican burrowing snakes, pink pigeons and small tooth sawfish.
They are all end ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )angered animals! Animals become endangered for a variety of reasons. Sadly，humans are behind every one of them!
For centuries, huma ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ns have hunted elephants for their tusks, and killed tigers for their beautiful fur，caught fish for food. While we still have elephants, tigers, and fish in the wild, we cannot say the same about many others that have simply died out!
Year 1505 was a d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )readful turning point in the natural history of the island of Mauritius—European sailors discovered this beautiful island in the Indian Ocean and brought dogs, pigs, monkeys with them. The arrival of humans and those introduced animal species were bad news for dodo birds. About 50 pounds and flightless, dodo birds did not have any natural enemies until then. They picked fruit fallen from trees and built their nests on the ground. Shortly after humans set foot on Mauritius, however, dodo birds realized that they were in big trouble—men killed them for their meat, and those introduced animal species destroyed their nests and ate their eggs. The effects of excessive (过度的)hunting and foreign species drove dodo birds to first become much fewer and then die out. The last dodo bird was killed in 1681.
Humans and animals ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) have always competed for land and other natural resources. We clear an area of a forest for farming. We cut down trees and use wood to build beautiful houses. We build reservoirs (水库) to make sure that we have enough water to use. At the same time that we are trying to make our life comfortable, we destroy the habitats of wild animals.
More than once we h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ave seen on television that rescue workers are trying their best to save seabirds in spilled(泄漏的)oil. More than once we have heard about how emissions of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳的排放) and other gases have raised the Earth temperature and caused global warming. Pollution has a serious and long lasting effect. If we choose to do nothing and continue to pollute our planet Earth, our next generations will have to face an Earth without birds singing and beasts roaring.
文章大意：地球上越来越多的动物灭绝，其根本原因是什么呢？
1．Which of the following are NOT endangered animals
A．Pandas. B．Rhinoceros.
C．Pink pigeons. D．Dodo birds.
答案：D 细节理解题。dodo birds不是濒危动物，而是已经灭绝的动物。
2．What does ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the underlined word “dreadful” (in Paragraph 4) mean
A．Surprising. B．Exciting.
C．Unpleasant. D．Quick.
答案：C 词义猜测题。从本段的内容 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )分析可知正是人类的到来和外来物种的进入使dodo birds面临灭顶之灾，所以应是一个不好的、令人不悦的转折点，故选C。
3．Paragraph 5 mainly talks about ________.
A．how excessive hunting led to endangerment of animals
B．when foreign species entered the island of Mauritius
C．the human activities caused the loss of habitats of animals
D．pollution played a main role in the worsening of the environment
答案：C 推理判断题。从本段可知正是人类的活动使得动物们的栖息地遭到了破坏，故选C。
4．What is the best title for the passage
A．What Makes the Animals in Danger
B．How to Save the Endangered Animals
C．Pollution and Animals
D．Don't Hunt for Animals
答案：A 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了导致动物灭绝的情景及其发生的原因，因此选A。

Ⅴ.阅读理解
What do th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e following animals have in common Pandas, rhinoceros, Mexican burrowing snakes, pink pigeons and small tooth sawfish.
They are all end ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )angered animals! Animals become endangered for a variety of reasons. Sadly，humans are behind every one of them!
For centuries, huma ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ns have hunted elephants for their tusks, and killed tigers for their beautiful fur，caught fish for food. While we still have elephants, tigers, and fish in the wild, we cannot say the same about many others that have simply died out!
Year 1505 was a d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )readful turning point in the natural history of the island of Mauritius—European sailors discovered this beautiful island in the Indian Ocean and brought dogs, pigs, monkeys with them. The arrival of humans and those introduced animal species were bad news for dodo birds. About 50 pounds and flightless, dodo birds did not have any natural enemies until then. They picked fruit fallen from trees and built their nests on the ground. Shortly after humans set foot on Mauritius, however, dodo birds realized that they were in big trouble—men killed them for their meat, and those introduced animal species destroyed their nests and ate their eggs. The effects of excessive (过度的)hunting and foreign species drove dodo birds to first become much fewer and then die out. The last dodo bird was killed in 1681.
Humans and animals ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) have always competed for land and other natural resources. We clear an area of a forest for farming. We cut down trees and use wood to build beautiful houses. We build reservoirs (水库) to make sure that we have enough water to use. At the same time that we are trying to make our life comfortable, we destroy the habitats of wild animals.
More than once we h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ave seen on television that rescue workers are trying their best to save seabirds in spilled(泄漏的)oil. More than once we have heard about how emissions of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳的排放) and other gases have raised the Earth temperature and caused global warming. Pollution has a serious and long lasting effect. If we choose to do nothing and continue to pollute our planet Earth, our next generations will have to face an Earth without birds singing and beasts roaring.
