I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization 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 recordings. 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.
24．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.
25．Why was the author called to Muttontown
A．To rescue a woman. B．To cure a young owl.
C．To look at a baby owl. D．To take care of a woman.
26．What made the chick calm down
A．A new nest. B．Some food. C．A recording. D．Its parents.
27．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．
【答案】24．A
25．C
26．A
27．B
【知识点】推理判断题；细节理解题；故事阅读类；记叙文
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者救助一只小猫头鹰，给它做新的窝，帮助它回到父母身边的故事。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，并根据上下文进行逻辑推理，从而选出正确答案。
24．考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain."试图帮助受伤、流离失所或生病的动物可能会令人心碎；生存从来都不是确定的。可知，救助受伤动物是令人心碎的，因为不知道救助的动物是否能活下去，也就是为救助动物而花费的努力可能会白费，这是不可避免的。故选A。
25．考查细节理解。根据第二段中的"She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl"她在地上发现了一只小猫头鹰。当我到达时，我看到了一只两三周大的猫头鹰。可知，有人给作者打电话是因为有只小猫头鹰掉在地上了，作者赶过去看看情况。故选C。
26．考查推理判断。根据第四段中的"I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down"我把小鸡放进窝里，它很快就平静下来了。可知，在作者把小猫头鹰放在窝里之后，它很快就安静下来，所以是窝让小猫头鹰安静下来的。故选A。
27．考查推理判断。根据上文可知，作者为小猫头鹰做了窝，并且帮助它找回了它的父母。小猫头鹰的父母还为它带回了午餐。作者的救助成功了，说明结局是美好的。再结合第一段的"However, when it works, it is simply beautiful."可推测，作者感觉很美好。故选B。

Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit (联系) groups developed their own patterns (模式) of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12000 languages between them.
Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalization and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.
At present, the world has about 6800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages, the Americas about 1000, Africa 2400, and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.
Already well over 400 of the total of 6800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.
28．What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times
A．They had similar patterns. B．They were large in number.
C．They developed very fast. D．They were closely connected.
29．Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？
A．Formal. B．Modern. C．Advanced. D．Powerful.
30．How many languages are spoken by less than 6000 people at present
A．About 6800 B．About 3400 C．About 2400 D．About 1200
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．New languages will be created.
B．Geography determines language evolution.
C．People's lifestyles are reflected in languages.
D．Human development results in fewer languages.
【答案】28．B
29．D
30．B
31．D
【知识点】推理判断题；词义猜测题；细节理解题；说明文；社会文化类；文章大意
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了语言的历史演变以及语言消亡的原因，指出随着全球化和现代交通通讯的发展，一些语言正在消亡，而主流语言如英语、西班牙语和汉语等正在变得越来越重要。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测，推理判断和主旨大意四个题型的考查，是一篇文化类阅读，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。
28．考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit (联系) groups developed their own patterns (模式) of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12000 languages between them."当世界上仍有狩猎采集者居住时，小型的、紧密结合的群体发展出了自己独立的语言模式。一些语言专家认为，1万年前，当世界上只有500万到1000万人的时候，他们大概说着12000种语言。可知，当世界上仍有狩猎采集者居住时，小型的、紧密结合的群体发展出了自己独立的语言模式，那时候大概有12000种语言,即语言的数量很多。故选B。
29．考查词义猜测。根据第二段中的" such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over."英语、西班牙语和汉语等语言正逐渐占据主导地位。可知，随着全球化和交流的发展，英语、西班牙语和汉语等语言正逐渐占据主导地位，故英语、西班牙语和汉语等语言为主导型语言即强大的语言。可推知划线词dominant是( 强大的"之意，故选D。
30．考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的"At present, the world has about 6800 languages."目前，世界上大约有6800种语言；以及"The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that."使用语言的人中位数仅为6000人，这意味着世界上一半的语言的使用者少于6000人。可知，世界上大约有6800种语言，世界上一半的语言的使用者少于6000人,即3400。故选B。
31．考查主旨大意。根据第二段"Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalization and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over."不久之后，这些人中的许多人开始定居下来，成为农民，他们的语言也变得更加固定，数量也越来越少。近几个世纪以来，贸易、工业化、民族国家的发展和普及义务教育，特别是过去几十年的全球化和更好的通信，都导致许多语言消失，英语、西班牙语和汉语等主导语言越来越多地取而代之。可知，本文介绍了语言的历史演变以及语言消亡的原因，指出随着全球化和现代交通通讯的发展，一些语言正在消亡，而主流语言如英语、西班牙语和汉语等正在变得越来越重要。即人类的发展导致语言减少。"人类的发展导致语言越来越少"概括文章主要内容，符合文章主旨大意。故选D。

As we age, even if we're healthy, the heart just isn't as efficient in processing oxygen as it used to be. In most people the first signs show up in their 50s or early 60s. And among people who don't exercise, the changes can start even sooner.
"Think of a rubber band(橡皮筋). In the beginning, it is flexible, but put it in a drawer for 20 years and it will become dry and easily broken," says Dr. Ben Levine, a heart specialist at the University of Texas. That's what happens to the heart. Fortunately for those in midlife, Levine is finding that even if you haven't been an enthusiastic exerciser, getting in shape now may help improve your aging heart.
Levine and his research team selected volunteers aged between 45 and 64 who did not exercise much but were otherwise healthy. Participants were randomly divided into two groups. The first group participated in a program of nonaerobic(无氧) exercise—balance training and weight training—three times a week. The second group did high-intensity aerobic exercise under the guidance of a trainer for four or more days a week. After two years, the second group saw remarkable improvements in heart health.
"We took these 50-year-old hearts and turned the clock back to 30-or 35-year-old hearts," says Levine. "And the reason they got so much stronger and fitter was that their hearts could now fill a lot better and pump (泵送) a lot more blood during exercise." But the hearts of those who participated in less intense exercise didn't change, he says.
"The sweet spot in life to start exercising, if you haven't already, is in late middle age when the heart still has flexibility," Levine says. "We put healthy 70-year-olds through a yearlong exercise training program, and nothing happened to them at all."
Dr. Nieca Goldberg, a spokeswoman for the American Heart Association, says Levine's findings are a great start. But the study was small and needs to be repeated with far larger groups of people to determine exactly which aspects of an exercise routine make the biggest difference.
32．What does Levine want to explain by mentioning the rubber band
A．The right way of exercising.
B．The causes of a heart attack.

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，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。
32．考查推理判断。根据第二段中的"‘Think of a rubber band(橡皮筋). In the beginning, it is flexible, but put it in a drawer for 20 years and it will become dry and easily broken,' says Dr. Ben Levine, a heart specialist at the University of Texas. That's what happens to the heart. ""想想橡皮筋。一开始，它是灵活的，但把它放在抽屉里20年，它就会变得干燥，很容易破碎，"德克萨斯大学的心脏专家本·莱文博士说。这就是心脏的变化。可知， Levine 想通过提到橡皮筋来解释心脏的老化过程，故选D。
33．考查推理判断。根据第三段中的" The first group participated in a program of nonaerobic(无氧) exercise—balance training and weight training—three times a week. "第一组每周参加三次非有氧运动——平衡训练和重量训练。第二组在教练的指导下每周进行4天或更多的高强度有氧运动。可知，两组在研究设计上的不同在于运动类型的不同，故选C。
34．考查细节理解。根据第三段中的"The second group did high-intensity aerobic exercise under the guidance of a trainer for four or more days a week. After two years, the second group saw remarkable improvements in heart health."第二组在教练的指导下每周进行4天或更多的高强度有氧运动。两年后，第二组的心脏健康状况有了显著改善；以及第四段中的"‘We took these 50-year-old hearts and turned the clock back to 30-or 35-year-old hearts,' says Levine."Levine说:"我们把这些50岁的心脏的时钟拨回30或35岁的心脏。"可知，Levine文的研究发现了通过有氧运动，中年人的心脏会变得更年轻，故选A。
35．考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的"But the study was small and needs to be repeated with far larger groups of people to determine exactly which aspects of an exercise routine make the biggest difference."但这项研究的规模很小，需要在更大的人群中重复进行，以确定日常锻炼的哪些方面会产生最大的影响。可知， Nieca Goldberg 博士建议进行进一步的研究。故选C。

Ballet was a way of life in Kelly's family. Her elder sister Serena was now dancing at a top college. Though Kelly's mom always wanted her to follow in her sister's footsteps and Kelly herself was good at ballet, her love for ballet had faded years before, and she was eager for a new challenge.
One day at school, as Kelly left the dance studio, she walked past the gym, fascinated by boxers training inside the boxing ring(拳击赛场). She was deeply impressed by how hard they hit and how fast they moved. In fact, she'd long been attracted to boxing.
She pulled a piece of paper from her backpack. On the familiar Oakwood High School Club Sign-up Sheet was the phrase：BOXING CLUB TRYOUT(选拔).That was what Kelly really wanted to do. She knew her mom had high expectations for her when it came to ballet. Tired of trying to keep up with her sister, Kelly was ready to carve(雕刻) her own path.
The next day, she gathered her courage and told Serena about her new passion. At first, Serena didn't understand and thought she was just joking. But when she saw Kelly was serious, she replied, "You know Mom wants you to be a ballet dancer, right Besides, boxing is only for boys, and you're so good at ballet. Lean into your strength, Kelly."
"But this is where I want to put my strength,"Kelly insisted, "and what exactly does ‘only for boys' mean, anyway Boxing is a sport for everyone!"
Gradually, touched by her determination and passion, Serena began to understand and support her. Kelly could feel it. Her sister was going to respect her decision, no matter what. But that was nothing compared to the preparations for the tryout, where she was required to show her footwork(步法) and punching（击打）abilities with other candidates(候选人).

【点评】本书面表达要点齐全，上下文连贯，使用一定数量的句式结构，让句子更加生动丰满，同时运用了许多高级词汇和固定短语，提高文章的档次，体现了对英语的熟练的驾驭能力。例如：Compared with other boxers she met, she had little experience but it didn't defeat her. 运用了转折并列句； Despite being laughed at by some boys and receiving misunderstanding, the words "giving up" never popped into her mind, and her skills were improving day by day.运用了动名词的被动式作介词宾语，并列句； Nervous but confident, she showed everything she had practiced perfectly without even an error! 运用了形容词作状语，限制性定语从句；Seeing the shocked looks of others, Kelly breathed a sigh of relief and knew she had made it.运用了宾语从句；Crowds gathering, every candidate was eager to find his own name. 运用了独立主格结构；Seeing her name shining on the list, Kelly was overjoyed to share this thrilling news with Serena. 运用了现在分词作状语，不定式作原因状语； Surprisingly, Mom, though initially shocked, saw determination in Kelly's eyes and ultimately decided to support her daughter's newfound passion. 运用了让步状语从句的省略；With her family's support and, Kelly embarked on her journey to become a skilled and respected boxer, proving that boxing was indeed a sport for everyone.运用了现在分词作状语，宾语从句。

I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization 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 recordings. 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.
24．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.
25．Why was the author called to Muttontown
A．To rescue a woman. B．To cure a young owl.
C．To look at a baby owl. D．To take care of a woman.
26．What made the chick calm down
A．A new nest. B．Some food. C．A recording. D．Its parents.
27．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．

Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit (联系) groups developed their own patterns (模式) of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12000 languages between them.
Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalization and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.
At present, the world has about 6800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages, the Americas about 1000, Africa 2400, and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number (中位数) of speakers is a mere 6000, which means that half the world's languages are spoken by fewer people than that.
Already well over 400 of the total of 6800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico (150), Lipan Apache in the United States (two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia (one, with a question-mark): none of these seems to have much chance of survival.
28．What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times
A．They had similar patterns. B．They were large in number.
C．They developed very fast. D．They were closely connected.
29．Which of the following best explains "dominant" underlined in paragraph 2？
A．Formal. B．Modern. C．Advanced. D．Powerful.
30．How many languages are spoken by less than 6000 people at present
A．About 6800 B．About 3400 C．About 2400 D．About 1200
31．What is the main idea of the text
A．New languages will be created.
B．Geography determines language evolution.
C．People's lifestyles are reflected in languages.
D．Human development results in fewer languages.

As we age, even if we're healthy, the heart just isn't as efficient in processing oxygen as it used to be. In most people the first signs show up in their 50s or early 60s. And among people who don't exercise, the changes can start even sooner.
"Think of a rubber band(橡皮筋). In the beginning, it is flexible, but put it in a drawer for 20 years and it will become dry and easily broken," says Dr. Ben Levine, a heart specialist at the University of Texas. That's what happens to the heart. Fortunately for those in midlife, Levine is finding that even if you haven't been an enthusiastic exerciser, getting in shape now may help improve your aging heart.
Levine and his research team selected volunteers aged between 45 and 64 who did not exercise much but were otherwise healthy. Participants were randomly divided into two groups. The first group participated in a program of nonaerobic(无氧) exercise—balance training and weight training—three times a week. The second group did high-intensity aerobic exercise under the guidance of a trainer for four or more days a week. After two years, the second group saw remarkable improvements in heart health.
"We took these 50-year-old hearts and turned the clock back to 30-or 35-year-old hearts," says Levine. "And the reason they got so much stronger and fitter was that their hearts could now fill a lot better and pump (泵送) a lot more blood during exercise." But the hearts of those who participated in less intense exercise didn't change, he says.
"The sweet spot in life to start exercising, if you haven't already, is in late middle age when the heart still has flexibility," Levine says. "We put healthy 70-year-olds through a yearlong exercise training program, and nothing happened to them at all."
Dr. Nieca Goldberg, a spokeswoman for the American Heart Association, says Levine's findings are a great start. But the study was small and needs to be repeated with far larger groups of people to determine exactly which aspects of an exercise routine make the biggest difference.
32．What does Levine want to explain by mentioning the rubber band
A．The right way of exercising.
B．The causes of a heart attack.
C．The difficulty of keeping fit.
D．The aging process of the heart.
33．In which aspect were the two groups different in terms of research design
A．Diet plan. B．Professional background.
C．Exercise type. D．Previous physical condition.
34．What does Levine's research find
A．Middle-aged hearts get younger with aerobic exercise.
B．High-intensity exercise is more suitable for the young.
C．The more exercise we do, the stronger our hearts get.
D．It is never too late for people to start taking exercise.
35．What does Dr. Nieca Goldberg suggest
A．Making use of the findings.
B．Interviewing the study participants.
C．Conducting further research.
D．Clarifying the purpose of the study.

67． 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文,
Ballet was a way of life in Kelly's family. Her elder sister Serena was now dancing at a top college. Though Kelly's mom always wanted her to follow in her sister's footsteps and Kelly herself was good at ballet, her love for ballet had faded years before, and she was eager for a new challenge.
One day at school, as Kelly left the dance studio, she walked past the gym, fascinated by boxers training inside the boxing ring(拳击赛场). She was deeply impressed by how hard they hit and how fast they moved. In fact, she'd long been attracted to boxing.
She pulled a piece of paper from her backpack. On the familiar Oakwood High School Club Sign-up Sheet was the phrase：BOXING CLUB TRYOUT(选拔).That was what Kelly really wanted to do. She knew her mom had high expectations for her when it came to ballet. Tired of trying to keep up with her sister, Kelly was ready to carve(雕刻) her own path.
The next day, she gathered her courage and told Serena about her new passion. At first, Serena didn't understand and thought she was just joking. But when she saw Kelly was serious, she replied, "You know Mom wants you to be a ballet dancer, right Besides, boxing is only for boys, and you're so good at ballet. Lean into your strength, Kelly."
"But this is where I want to put my strength,"Kelly insisted, "and what exactly does ‘only for boys' mean, anyway Boxing is a sport for everyone!"
Gradually, touched by her determination and passion, Serena began to understand and support her. Kelly could feel it. Her sister was going to respect her decision, no matter what. But that was nothing compared to the preparations for the tryout, where she was required to show her footwork(步法) and punching（击打）abilities with other candidates(候选人). Boxing didn't come natural to Kelly, but she had made up her mind to stick with her choice.
注意：1.续写词数应为 150 左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Then Kelly began her training for the tryout, keeping it a secret from her mom.
……
The following Monday, results of the boxing tryout were posted.

【解析】【听力原文】 M: I was born without hands and feet. It's a rare condition. Living through difficulties has made me who I am today.
My parents helped me develop tools to overcome my challenges. When I was 2, my dad decided that my family would stop helping me eat. He knew that one day I'd live on my own, so I'd have to look after myself. I learned to eat with a spoon, and then with a knife and a fork. It gave me a sense of accomplishment. My darkest moment came when I was 10. My family moved from Indiana to Georgia. In Indiana, my friends treated me as normal. But in Georgia, it was different. I felt very aware of my disability. I felt hopeless about the future.
My world changed when I got into sports. I started playing football. Everything came together when I made my first kick at age 11. It was my first real achievement.
Then I decided to start wrestling. I had an amazing coach who helped me invent moves that took advantage of my strength. I eventually finished 12th in the 103-pound weight class in the championships. I keep going in the face of difficulties.

31．考查主旨大意。根据第二段"Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalization and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over."不久之后，这些人中的许多人开始定居下来，成为农民，他们的语言也变得更加固定，数量也越来越少。近几个世纪以来，贸易、工业化、民族国家的发展和普及义务教育，特别是过去几十年的全球化和更好的通信，都导致许多语言消失，英语、西班牙语和汉语等主导语言越来越多地取而代之。可知，本文介绍了语言的历史演变以及语言消亡的原因，指出随着全球化和现代交通通讯的发展，一些语言正在消亡，而主流语言如英语、西班牙语和汉语等正在变得越来越重要。即人类的发展导致语言减少。"人类的发展导致语言越来越少"概括文章主要内容，符合文章主旨大意。故选D。
