阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Women are equally responsible for the growth of a free, modern society. Here's a look at some outstanding women who made great contributions to world history.
Maria Sibylla Merian
Today, children can explain how a caterpillar (毛毛虫) turns into a butterfly (蝴蝶). But there was a time when no one knew this --not even scientists. Thanks to Maria Sibylla Merian, we know the truth about these beautiful winged insects. Merian was fascinated by insects, and she began collecting, studying, and drawing them when she was as young as 13. It was through her study of caterpillars that she discovered the truth about their life cycles.
Beryl Markham
Beryl Markham was quite incredible in not just aviation (航空) but several other industries, including horse racing. In 1936, at age 33, Markham became the first woman to fly across the Atlantic alone from the east to the west, nonstop. The pilot played a role in the classic best-selling novel and film, Out of Africa, and had many biographies penned about her talents and life.
Madam C. J. Walker
Madam C J. Walker developed a condition that caused her to lose her hair, and with it, an interest in hair care. She began working for black hair care entrepreneur (企业家) Annie Turnbo Malone. Eventually, Walker began making and marketing her own hair care products designed for African-American women. Her company developed into the successful Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company. She is widely recognized as America's first black female self-made millionaire.
Hedy Lamarr
You might know Hedy Lamarr from the silver screen; she starred in many films. But her film career is far from her only achievement; she was also a brilliant inventor. In 1942, she received a patent for an invention that could change radio signal frequencies. It paved the way for much of the wireless technology we use today.
1．Who had a lot of enthusiasm for the study of insects
A．Hedy Lamarr B．Beryl Markham
C．MadamC. J. Walker D．Maria Sibylla Merian
2．What made Madam C. J. Walker begin to focus on the hair care

In my opinion, my mother has the ability to do anything, especially chores such as ironing and cooking. However, teaching her how to use the Internet is as frustrating as untangling (解开) wires.
Once, my mother came to me to ask for help on how to find a recipe for all-beef Lasagna. I gave her very simple verbal instructions—go to the home page of a particular search engine and type in "recipe for all-beef Lasagna." Fifteen minutes later, she came to me, telling me that she was unable to find the Internet icon. I went over to the computer and pointed out the icon to her.
Another fifteen minutes went by when I felt a tap on my shoulder. This time, my mother said that she was unable to search for the particular recipe. Gritting (咬) my teeth, I walked to her room again. I saw that she had typed "all beef La saga" instead. With frustrated strokes, I keyed in the correct spelling.
Yet another fifteen minutes went by again when my mother gingerly tapped my shoulder. I stormed next door without bothering to hide my frustration. The main page of the website had not shifted one bit. I then realized that she did not know how to scroll(滚动屏幕) down the page. What had initially seemed like an easy task was turning out to be an intense one.
To avoid being disturbed again, I decided to find the recipe for her. Without a word, I rapidly downloaded a few recipes, printed them out and passed them to my mother. However, seeing her embarrassment, I began to regret my impatience.
At that moment, memories flashed through my mind. When I was young, my mother endured my endless questions, enlightening me with much patience. Now that I am older, the roles slowly reverse. As my mother may increasingly need my help, shouldn't I rethink how to respond to her needs
4．Why does the author gave her mother very simple instructions at first
A．Because she was an impatient person.
B．Because she didn't want to be disturbed.
C．Because she wanted to make them easy to follow.
D．Because she thought it was an easy task to do.
5．How did the author's mother feel when she got the recipes
A．Delighted. B．Embarrassed. C．Frustrated. D．Impatient.
6．Which of the following is probably the end of the story
A．The author becomes more willing to help her mother.
B．The author's mother becomes more patient to her.
C．The author's mother doesn't turn to her for help any more.
D．The author learns more recipes with her mother.
7．What can be a suitable title for this text
A．It's never too old to learn.
B．Action speaks louder than words.
C．Patience is the mother of success.
D．Understanding means standing in other's shoes.
【答案】4．D
5．B
6．A
7．D
【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；故事阅读类；记叙文；文章大意
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了母亲因不熟悉电脑而屡次向我求助，而我对她却越来越没有耐心，最后我终于意识到了自己的问题所在。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，推理判断和主旨大意三个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。
4．考查细节理解。根据第四段中的"What had initially seemed like an easy task was turning out to be an intense one."最初看起来是一项简单的任务，结果却变成了一项艰巨的任务。可知，一开始作者只给妈妈非常简单的指导是因为作者认为在网上查看菜谱是非常简单的人物。故选D。
5．考查细节理解。根据第五段中的"However, seeing her embarrassment, I began to regret my impatience."然而，看到她的尴尬，我开始后悔我的不耐烦。可知，在作者拿到菜谱之后，妈妈感到非常的尴尬。故选B。
6．考查推理判断。根据最后一段"At that moment, memories flashed through my mind. When I was young, my mother endured my endless questions, enlightening me with much patience. Now that I am older, the roles slowly reverse. As my mother may increasingly need my help, shouldn't I rethink how to respond to her needs "那一刻，回忆在我的脑海中闪过。在我小的时候，母亲忍受着我没完没了的问题，耐心地启发着我。现在我长大了，角色慢慢颠倒了。我的母亲可能越来越需要我的帮助，难道我不应该重新考虑如何回应她的需求吗 可知，作者后悔自己对母亲不耐烦的态度，想到自己小时候被妈妈耐心地对待，可判断，作者接下来会更加耐心地对待妈妈，更愿意帮助自己的妈妈。故选A。
7．考查主旨大意。纵观全文可知，第一段到第五段讲述了作者母亲因不熟悉电脑而屡次向我求助，而我对她却越来越没有耐心，最后一段提到作者回想小时候母亲对待自己的耐心，后悔自己不耐烦的态度，从而认为自己要改变自己的态度，要站在母亲的角度上考虑她的需求。"理解意味着站在别人的立场上。"适合做文章的标题。故选D。

"It is necessary for us to go to places that still look like the ocean as it was 500 years ago," says Enric Sala, former professor at Scripps Institute of Oceanography. However, in most parts of the world, marine conservation is stymied by opposition from fishing, oil, and mining-interests. A mere 7 percent of the world's ocean has protection—mostly weak rules, and only 2.5 percent is highly protected. Outside of these zones, the ocean's story is a continuing failure.
A few remaining parts of the ocean are the last wild places of the sea—the marine equivalent of the remotest old-growth forest in the Amazon—still unaffected by overfishing, pollution and climate change. Enric is working with the National Geographic Society and together launched the Pristine Seas project in 2008. Over the past 14 years, Pristine Seas has helped create 28 marine reserves, making up two-thirds of the world's fully protected marine areas—covering more than two million square miles in all.
Now Sala and his team have set an even more ambitious goal: to see more than a third of the world's ocean conserved for the purpose not just of sustaining biodiversity but also of replenishing(补充)fish stocks and storing carbon.
Pristine Seas worked with native Palauans(帕劳人)to give an ancient conservation tradition a modern change. For centuries, Palauans have used what they all "buls", a Palauan word which means closure, to preserve and rebuild their reef fish stocks. Over the years they have created 35 reserves to protect marine life around their islands, some of which ban fishing permanently.
Sala and his team calculate that a 14-fold expansion of the fully protected part of the ocean, from 2.5 percent to 35 percent, would provide 64 percent of the biodiversity benefits while increasing the global fish catch by almost 10 million metric tons. Even that may sound impossible, but the alternative is awful. For now, we still get to choose.
8．What does the underlined word "stymied" in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A．Frustrated. B．Supported. C．Accelerated. D．Overestimated.
9．What situation does global ocean protection face
A．Protecting the ocean influences mining most.
B．Ocean protection has achieved great progress.
C．Few oceans have been properly protected so far.
D．Current rules have been enough for ocean protection.
10．What can we learn about the Pristine Seas project
A．It has protected two-thirds of the world's ocean.
B．It sets unrealistic goals when protecting the ocean.
C．It asks to prohibit fishing in the 35 created reserves.
D．It has made some advances in maintaining biodiversity.
11．Where can we probably read this article
A．www. . B．www. .
C．www. . D．www. eco-conservation. com.
【答案】8．A

【知识点】推理判断题；词义猜测题；细节理解题；说明文；环境保护类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一个旨在保护世界海洋的项目——原始海洋。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查，是一篇环保类阅读，通读全文，理解文章大意，阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容，仔细核对，选择符合原文原意的答案，完成后再次阅读并检查。
8．考查词义猜测。根据第一段中的"however"可知，划线词所在句和上一句有转折关系。结合"‘It is necessary for us to go to places that still look like the ocean as it was 500 years ago,' says Enric Sala, former professor at Scripps Institute of Oceanography."斯克里普斯海洋学研究所前教授Enric Sala说："我们有必要去那些看起来像500年前海洋的地方。"指的是Enric教授认为我们应该去那些看起来像500年前海洋的地方；以及"A mere 7 percent of the world's ocean has protection—mostly weak rules, and only 2.5 percent is highly protected."世界上只有7%的海洋受到保护，而且大多是薄弱的法规，只有2.5%的海洋受到高度保护。则告诉我们世界上受到保护的海洋很少。可推断，划线词 stymied 指的是海洋保护遭到渔业、石油和采矿利益集团的"反对或抵制"。故选A。
9．考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"A mere 7 percent of the world's ocean has protection—mostly weak rules, and only 2.5 percent is highly protected. Outside of these zones, the ocean's story is a continuing failure."世界上只有7%的海洋受到保护，而且大多是薄弱的法规，只有2.5%的海洋受到高度保护。在这些区域之外，海洋的故事是一个持续的失败。可知，目前只有很少的海洋得到了保护。故选C。
10．考查推理判断。根据第二段中的"Enric is working with the National Geographic Society and together launched the Pristine Seas project in 2008. Over the past 14 years, Pristine Seas has helped create 28 marine reserves, making up two-thirds of the world's fully protected marine areas—covering more than two million square miles in all." Enric正与国家地理学会合作，并于2008年共同启动了"原始海洋"项目。在过去的14年里，"原始海洋"帮助建立了28个海洋保护区，占世界完全受保护海洋区域的三分之二，总面积超过200万平方英里；以及第三段"Now Sala and his team have set an even more ambitious goal: to see more than a third of the world's ocean conserved for the purpose not just of sustaining biodiversity but also of replenishing(补充)fish stocks and storing carbon."现在，Sala和他的团队制定了一个更加雄心勃勃的目标：保护世界上三分之一以上的海洋，不仅是为了维持生物多样性，也是为了补充鱼类资源和储存碳。可知，"原始海洋"在维持生物多样性方面取得了一些进展。故选D。
11．考查推理判断。根据第二段中的"Enric is working with the National Geographic Society and together launched the Pristine Seas project in 2008. Over the past 14 years, Pristine Seas has helped create 28 marine reserves, making up two-thirds of the world's fully protected marine areas—covering more than two million square miles in all." Enric正与国家地理学会合作，并于2008年共同启动了"原始海洋"项目。在过去的14年里，"原始海洋"帮助建立了28个海洋保护区，占世界完全受保护海洋区域的三分之二，总面积超过200万平方英里；以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍的是关于保护海洋，维持生物多样性等生态保护方面的内容，所以读者可以在与生态保护有关的www. eco-conservation. com.网站读到本文。故选D。

In a recent study, researchers have suggested that temperature is a major predictor of body size variation. Meanwhile, scientists studying red deer have said that warmer winters in northern Europe and Scandinavia may lead to the body size of these animals becoming smaller. Prof Steve Brusatte, a paleontologist(古生物学家) at the University of Edinburgh, suggested that the way in which other mammals(哺乳动物) have previously responded to periods of climate change could offer an insight into humans' future.
Writing in The Rise and Reign of the Mammals, Brusatte notes that animals in warmer parts of the world today are often smaller than those in colder areas, an ecological principle known as Bergmann's rule. "Why do they become smaller It is not entirely understood, but it is probably, in part, because smaller animals have a higher surface area relative to their volume than bigger animals and can thus better release extra heat," he writes. "It is a common way that mammals deal with climate change".
He added: "That's not to say every species of mammal would get smaller, but it seems to be a common survival trick of mammals when temperatures change pretty quickly. That does raise the question: if so, might humans get smaller And I think that certainly makes sense."
Prof Adrian Lister, of the Natural History Museum in London, said it is commonly believed that the strong relations between temperature and mammal body size may often be down to the availability of food and resources. "We are not really controlled by natural selection," he said. "If that was going to happen, you'd need to find large people dying before they could reproduce because of climate warming. That is not happening in today's world. We wear clothes, we have got heating, and we have got air conditioning if it is too hot."
12．What does the recent research find according to Paragraph 1
A．Climate change may cause humans to shrink in size.
B．Human being can't deal with global climate change.
C．Temperature is the decisive element in human growth.
D．Mankind's future is similar to that of ancient mammals
13．What is the main idea of the second paragraph
A．Principles about Bergmann's rule.
B．Reasons for animals' smaller size.
C．Ways to deal with climate change.
D．Decline of mammals in number.
14．How does Adrian Lister feel about the recent study
A．Supportive. B．Doubtful. C．Lengthy. D．Pointless.
15．Where is the text probably taken from
A．A job interview. B．A public speech.
C．A science journal. D．A course Book.
【答案】12．A
13．B
14．B
15．C
【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；段落大意；说明文；科普类
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了关于气候变化是否影响身体大小的研究。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，推理判断和段落大意三个题型的考查，是一篇科研类阅读，首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握大意，然后结合具体的题目，再读短文，从中找出相关信息，就可以确定正确答案。
12．考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"Meanwhile, scientists studying red deer have said that warmer winters in northern Europe and Scandinavia may lead to the body size of these animals becoming smaller."与此同时，研究马鹿的科学家表示，北欧和斯堪的纳维亚半岛的暖冬可能会导致这些动物的体型变小；以及后文的相关信息可知，该研究的主要结论是气候变化影响身材大小，且有可能会让身体变小，故选A。
13．考查段落大意。根据第二段中的"Why do they become smaller It is not entirely understood, but it is probably, in part, because smaller animals have a higher surface area relative to their volume than bigger animals and can thus better release extra heat"为什么它们变小了？这一点目前还不完全清楚，但部分原因可能是较小的动物比较大的动物有更高的表面积，因此可以更好地释放额外的热量。可知，本段主要解释气候变化可能会导致动物身材变小的原因。故选B。
14．考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的"If that was going to happen, you'd need to find large people dying before they could reproduce because of climate warming. That is not happening in today's world."如果要发生这种情况，你需要找到因为气候变暖而无法繁衍的大个子。这在今天的世界是不会发生的。可知，他并不赞同上述研究的观点，对此表示怀疑。故选B。
15．考查推理判断。根据第一段中的"In a recent study, researchers have suggested that temperature is a major predictor of body size variation. Meanwhile, scientists studying red deer have said that warmer winters in northern Europe and Scandinavia may lead to the body size of these animals becoming smaller."在最近的一项研究中，研究人员认为温度是体型变化的主要预测因素。与此同时，研究马鹿的科学家表示，北欧和斯堪的纳维亚半岛的暖冬可能会导致这些动物的体型变小。可知，本文介绍了关于气候变化是否影响身体大小的科学研究，从文中的相关描述及文体可知其出处最有可能为：科学期刊。故选C。
二、第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Desertification(沙漠化), the process by which fertile (肥沃的) land becomes desert, has severe impacts on food production and is worsened by climate change. 16．
Africa's Great Green Wall is a project to build an 8,000- kilometer-long forest across 11 of the continent's countries. The project is meant to contain the growing Sahara Desert and fight climate change. 17． They include limited political support, lack of money, weak organizational structures, and not enough consideration for the environment. Just 4 million hectares (公顷) of land have been turned into forest since work on the Green Wall began 15 years ago. 18．
First proposed in 2005, the project aims to plant a forest from Senegal on the Atlantic Ocean in western Africa to Eritrea, Ethiopia and Djibouti in the east. 19． It could also reduce levels of climate-related migration in the area and capture hundreds of millions of tons of carbon dioxide from the air. Several countries have struggled to keep up with the demands of the project.
20． Eritrea, Ethiopia, and Sudan have all expanded their efforts. Ethiopia is producing 5.5 billion seedlings leading to thousands of hectares of restored land. Efforts in Eritrea and Sudan have also resulted in nearly 140,000 hectares of newly planted forest. The U. N. desertification agency says the project will need to plant an average of 8.2 million hectares yearly to reach its goal of 100 million hectares by 2030.
A. But the project faces many problems.
B. That is only 4 percent of the programme's goal.
C. However, it is difficult to work on the Great Green Wall.
D. A quarter of Africa is under threat of food shortage.
E. Some progress has been made in recent years in the east of the continent.
F. Supporters hope that the project will create millions of green jobs in rural Africa.
G. The U.N. says up to 45 percent of Africa's land is impacted by desertification, worse than any other continent.
【答案】16．G；17．A；18．B；19．F；20．E

16．根据空前"Desertification(沙漠化), the process by which fertile (肥沃的) land becomes desert, has severe impacts on food production and is worsened by climate change."荒漠化是肥沃土地变成沙漠的过程，对粮食生产产生严重影响，并因气候变化而恶化。可知，此处介绍了荒漠化的影响；以及空后"Africa's Great Green Wall is a project to build an 8,000- kilometre-long forest across 11 of the continent s countries. ""非洲绿色长城"是横跨非洲11个国家建设8000公里长的森林的项目。此处介绍了针对非洲的荒漠化现象的解决措施。G. The U.N. says up to 45 percent of Africa's land is impacted by desertification, worse than any other continent."联合国说，非洲有多达45%的土地受到沙漠化的影响，比其他任何大陆都严重。"，承上启下，上下文衔接连贯，符合语境，故选G。
17．根据空前"The project is meant to contain the growing Sahara Desert and fight climate change. "该项目旨在遏制撒哈拉沙漠的扩张并应对气候变化；以及空后"They include limited political support, lack of money, weak organizational structures, and not enough consideration for the environment. "它们包括政治支持有限、缺乏资金、组织结构薄弱以及对环境考虑不够。前后有转折关系，因为下文列举的是该项目面临的困难，设空处与上文为转折关系，A. But the project faces many problems. "但该项目面临许多问题。"，下文的They呼应A项中的many problems。上下文衔接连贯，故选A。
18．根据空前"Just 4 million hectares (公顷) of land have been turned into forest since work on the Green Wall began 15 years ago."自从15年前开始修建绿墙以来，只有400万公顷的土地变成了森林。可知，搞项目进展缓慢，B. That is only 4 percent of the programme's goal."这仅仅是该计划目标的4%。"，顺接上文，上文中的Just和B项中的only的运用，表明：该项目的进展实在太缓慢了，没有达到预想的速度。故选B。
19．根据空前"First proposed in 2005, the project aims to plant a forest from Senegal on the Atlantic Ocean in western Africa to Eritrea, Ethiopia and Djibouti in the east. "该项目于2005年首次提出，旨在从西非大西洋沿岸的塞内加尔到东部的厄立特里亚、埃塞俄比亚和吉布提，种植一片森林；以及空后"It could also reduce levels of climate-related migration in the area and capture hundreds of millions of tons of carbon dioxide from the air. Several countries have struggled to keep up with the demands of the project. "它还可以减少该地区与气候有关的移民水平，并从空气中捕获数亿吨二氧化碳。几个国家一直在努力满足该项目的需求。可知，此处陈述了该项目的好处，F. Supporters hope that the project will create millions of green jobs in rural Africa. "支持者希望该项目将在非洲农村地区创造数百万的绿色就业机会。"，承接上文，下文的It指代F项中的the project，副词also的运用表明：下文与F项为并列关系，故选F。
20．根据空后"Eritrea, Ethiopia, and Sudan have all expanded their efforts. Ethiopia is producing 5.5 billion seedlings leading to thousands of hectares of restored land. Efforts in Eritrea and Sudan have also resulted in nearly 140,000 hectares of newly planted forest. "厄立特里亚、埃塞俄比亚和苏丹都扩大了他们的努力。埃塞俄比亚正在生产55亿棵幼苗，从而恢复了数千公顷的土地。厄立特里亚和苏丹的努力也带来了近14万公顷新种植的森林。可知，此处介绍了在某些国家中，该项目的进展情况。E. ome progress has been made in recent years in the east of the continent. "近年来，非洲大陆东部取得了一些进展。"，为本段的中心句，与下文为总分关系，故选E。

一、第二部分阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Women are equally responsible for the growth of a free, modern society. Here's a look at some outstanding women who made great contributions to world history.
Maria Sibylla Merian
Today, children can explain how a caterpillar (毛毛虫) turns into a butterfly (蝴蝶). But there was a time when no one knew this --not even scientists. Thanks to Maria Sibylla Merian, we know the truth about these beautiful winged insects. Merian was fascinated by insects, and she began collecting, studying, and drawing them when she was as young as 13. It was through her study of caterpillars that she discovered the truth about their life cycles.
Beryl Markham
Beryl Markham was quite incredible in not just aviation (航空) but several other industries, including horse racing. In 1936, at age 33, Markham became the first woman to fly across the Atlantic alone from the east to the west, nonstop. The pilot played a role in the classic best-selling novel and film, Out of Africa, and had many biographies penned about her talents and life.
Madam C. J. Walker
Madam C J. Walker developed a condition that caused her to lose her hair, and with it, an interest in hair care. She began working for black hair care entrepreneur (企业家) Annie Turnbo Malone. Eventually, Walker began making and marketing her own hair care products designed for African-American women. Her company developed into the successful Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company. She is widely recognized as America's first black female self-made millionaire.
Hedy Lamarr
You might know Hedy Lamarr from the silver screen; she starred in many films. But her film career is far from her only achievement; she was also a brilliant inventor. In 1942, she received a patent for an invention that could change radio signal frequencies. It paved the way for much of the wireless technology we use today.

In my opinion, my mother has the ability to do anything, especially chores such as ironing and cooking. However, teaching her how to use the Internet is as frustrating as untangling (解开) wires.
Once, my mother came to me to ask for help on how to find a recipe for all-beef Lasagna. I gave her very simple verbal instructions—go to the home page of a particular search engine and type in "recipe for all-beef Lasagna." Fifteen minutes later, she came to me, telling me that she was unable to find the Internet icon. I went over to the computer and pointed out the icon to her.
Another fifteen minutes went by when I felt a tap on my shoulder. This time, my mother said that she was unable to search for the particular recipe. Gritting (咬) my teeth, I walked to her room again. I saw that she had typed "all beef La saga" instead. With frustrated strokes, I keyed in the correct spelling.
Yet another fifteen minutes went by again when my mother gingerly tapped my shoulder. I stormed next door without bothering to hide my frustration. The main page of the website had not shifted one bit. I then realized that she did not know how to scroll(滚动屏幕) down the page. What had initially seemed like an easy task was turning out to be an intense one.
To avoid being disturbed again, I decided to find the recipe for her. Without a word, I rapidly downloaded a few recipes, printed them out and passed them to my mother. However, seeing her embarrassment, I began to regret my impatience.
At that moment, memories flashed through my mind. When I was young, my mother endured my endless questions, enlightening me with much patience. Now that I am older, the roles slowly reverse. As my mother may increasingly need my help, shouldn't I rethink how to respond to her needs

C．Patience is the mother of success.
D．Understanding means standing in other's shoes.

"It is necessary for us to go to places that still look like the ocean as it was 500 years ago," says Enric Sala, former professor at Scripps Institute of Oceanography. However, in most parts of the world, marine conservation is stymied by opposition from fishing, oil, and mining-interests. A mere 7 percent of the world's ocean has protection—mostly weak rules, and only 2.5 percent is highly protected. Outside of these zones, the ocean's story is a continuing failure.
A few remaining parts of the ocean are the last wild places of the sea—the marine equivalent of the remotest old-growth forest in the Amazon—still unaffected by overfishing, pollution and climate change. Enric is working with the National Geographic Society and together launched the Pristine Seas project in 2008. Over the past 14 years, Pristine Seas has helped create 28 marine reserves, making up two-thirds of the world's fully protected marine areas—covering more than two million square miles in all.
Now Sala and his team have set an even more ambitious goal: to see more than a third of the world's ocean conserved for the purpose not just of sustaining biodiversity but also of replenishing(补充)fish stocks and storing carbon.
Pristine Seas worked with native Palauans(帕劳人)to give an ancient conservation tradition a modern change. For centuries, Palauans have used what they all "buls", a Palauan word which means closure, to preserve and rebuild their reef fish stocks. Over the years they have created 35 reserves to protect marine life around their islands, some of which ban fishing permanently.
Sala and his team calculate that a 14-fold expansion of the fully protected part of the ocean, from 2.5 percent to 35 percent, would provide 64 percent of the biodiversity benefits while increasing the global fish catch by almost 10 million metric tons. Even that may sound impossible, but the alternative is awful. For now, we still get to choose.
8．What does the underlined word "stymied" in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A．Frustrated. B．Supported. C．Accelerated. D．Overestimated.
9．What situation does global ocean protection face
A．Protecting the ocean influences mining most.
B．Ocean protection has achieved great progress.
C．Few oceans have been properly protected so far.
D．Current rules have been enough for ocean protection.
10．What can we learn about the Pristine Seas project
A．It has protected two-thirds of the world's ocean.
B．It sets unrealistic goals when protecting the ocean.
C．It asks to prohibit fishing in the 35 created reserves.
D．It has made some advances in maintaining biodiversity.
11．Where can we probably read this article
A．www. . B．www. .
C．www. . D．www. eco-conservation. com.

In a recent study, researchers have suggested that temperature is a major predictor of body size variation. Meanwhile, scientists studying red deer have said that warmer winters in northern Europe and Scandinavia may lead to the body size of these animals becoming smaller. Prof Steve Brusatte, a paleontologist(古生物学家) at the University of Edinburgh, suggested that the way in which other mammals(哺乳动物) have previously responded to periods of climate change could offer an insight into humans' future.
Writing in The Rise and Reign of the Mammals, Brusatte notes that animals in warmer parts of the world today are often smaller than those in colder areas, an ecological principle known as Bergmann's rule. "Why do they become smaller It is not entirely understood, but it is probably, in part, because smaller animals have a higher surface area relative to their volume than bigger animals and can thus better release extra heat," he writes. "It is a common way that mammals deal with climate change".
He added: "That's not to say every species of mammal would get smaller, but it seems to be a common survival trick of mammals when temperatures change pretty quickly. That does raise the question: if so, might humans get smaller And I think that certainly makes sense."
Prof Adrian Lister, of the Natural History Museum in London, said it is commonly believed that the strong relations between temperature and mammal body size may often be down to the availability of food and resources. "We are not really controlled by natural selection," he said. "If that was going to happen, you'd need to find large people dying before they could reproduce because of climate warming. That is not happening in today's world. We wear clothes, we have got heating, and we have got air conditioning if it is too hot."
12．What does the recent research find according to Paragraph 1
A．Climate change may cause humans to shrink in size.
B．Human being can't deal with global climate change.
C．Temperature is the decisive element in human growth.
D．Mankind's future is similar to that of ancient mammals
13．What is the main idea of the second paragraph
A．Principles about Bergmann's rule.
B．Reasons for animals' smaller size.
C．Ways to deal with climate change.
D．Decline of mammals in number.
14．How does Adrian Lister feel about the recent study
A．Supportive. B．Doubtful. C．Lengthy. D．Pointless.
15．Where is the text probably taken from
A．A job interview. B．A public speech.
C．A science journal. D．A course Book.

Desertification(沙漠化), the process by which fertile (肥沃的) land becomes desert, has severe impacts on food production and is worsened by climate change. 16．
Africa's Great Green Wall is a project to build an 8,000- kilometer-long forest across 11 of the continent's countries. The project is meant to contain the growing Sahara Desert and fight climate change. 17． They include limited political support, lack of money, weak organizational structures, and not enough consideration for the environment. Just 4 million hectares (公顷) of land have been turned into forest since work on the Green Wall began 15 years ago. 18．
First proposed in 2005, the project aims to plant a forest from Senegal on the Atlantic Ocean in western Africa to Eritrea, Ethiopia and Djibouti in the east. 19． It could also reduce levels of climate-related migration in the area and capture hundreds of millions of tons of carbon dioxide from the air. Several countries have struggled to keep up with the demands of the project.
20． Eritrea, Ethiopia, and Sudan have all expanded their efforts. Ethiopia is producing 5.5 billion seedlings leading to thousands of hectares of restored land. Efforts in Eritrea and Sudan have also resulted in nearly 140,000 hectares of newly planted forest. The U. N. desertification agency says the project will need to plant an average of 8.2 million hectares yearly to reach its goal of 100 million hectares by 2030.
A. But the project faces many problems.
B. That is only 4 percent of the programme's goal.
C. However, it is difficult to work on the Great Green Wall.
D. A quarter of Africa is under threat of food shortage.
E. Some progress has been made in recent years in the east of the continent.
F. Supporters hope that the project will create millions of green jobs in rural Africa.
G. The U.N. says up to 45 percent of Africa's land is impacted by desertification, worse than any other continent.

We collected all the money and papers at once, putting them in the drawer. We rushed to the charity shop with the drawer in the hope to find the owner as soon as possible.
Though surprised, the shop owner helped find the family's telephone number. Within a few minutes, the family all came over. When I showed them what I had found in the drawer, they couldn't believe their eyes. The parents had tears in their eyes. They were still sad about the lady's death and the father had just lost his job. It was easy to see that my act of honesty gave them hope. They showed me sincere gratitude from the bottom of their hearts. In fact, I had never felt better before. No new bicycle could have made me felt as good about myself as I felt that day because I passed a very important test—a lost and found test of my own character.
