Imagine living in a modern city. On any given morning, you might expect to look out your window and see a stream of cars and people on their way to work. In recent days, however, residents in Kunming. China — a city of some 6 million people — were preparing themselves for a more unusual sighting: a herd (群) of wild elephants.
Since March 2020, a group of 15 elephants has traveled more than 300 miles within Yunnan Province in China. They reportedly came within two miles of Kunming before turning around a few days ago. No one knows the reason why they left their home in Xishuangbanna Nature Reserve, but this long journey has brought much-needed public attention to the challenge facing Asian elephants.
Asian elephants range across 13 countries in South and Southeast Asia. And, sadly, they are endangered, with fewer than 50,000 left in the wild. And yet they are underrepresented on theglobal stage when their conservation needs are so urgent.
Living on the most thickly populated continent on the planet means that space is rare. It also means that habitat loss is the most significant threat facing Asian elephants. While illegal hunting also threatens these populations, human-elephant conflict resulting from habitat loss is a leading cause of elephant death in Asia. Elephants have significant space and resource needs and have been known to travel many miles a day in search of food and water. Today, on average, 70% of the Asian elephant population is found outside protected areas. This means they often travel through human-dominated landscapes and come into regular contact with people.
These interactions, or human-elephant conflicts, can result in crop and property damage. Most recently, the damage along the movement path of the elephant herd in China has amounted to losses of an estimated $1.1 million. While these animals have been closely watched and protected by local authorities who have been successful to date at preventing injury or death to either people or the elephant herd, human-elephant conflict can result in human death and injury and cause retaliatory (报复性的) action that further reduces wild elephant populations.
4．What do we know about the 15 elephants
A．They attacked residents in Kunming.
B．They draw public attention to their problem.
C．They prefer a modern city to a nature reserve.
D．They traveled more than 300 miles within Kunming.
5．What is a major cause of the extinction of Asian elephants
A．Illegal hunting. B．Loss of habitat.
C．Lack of protected areas. D．Ignored conservation needs.
6．What have the local authorities been trying to do according to the last paragraph
A．Avoid human-elephant conflicts.
B．Move the elephants to another region.
C．Predict the results of human-elephant conflicts.
D．Make up for the losses caused by the elephants.
7．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．Asian Elephants: An Endangered Species Rescued
B．Urban Adventures of Elephants: A Taste of the City Life
C．Wandering Elephants: A Conservation Challenge in Asia
D．Elephant Sightings in Kunming: A City's Unusual Morning
C
From more boiling summers to more frequent floods, warming weather is impacting our lives in every aspect. For animals, however, it’s not just a comfortable living environment in danger, but their very existence. Many animals are in danger of disappearing due to climate change. A study published on March 7 used fossils from sea creatures to find out which animals are facing the highest risk of extinction as our planet’s climate continues to shift.
Carried out by the University of Oxford, the study found that the size of an animal plays a big part in its ability to survive and reproduce. Smaller animals are more likely to become extinct because they tend to use up their energy quickly due to their size. They need lots of food to keep going, so any change that makes food scarce affects them more. Furthermore, small animals usually don’t live as long as larger ones, making them more vulnerable to factors that might reduce their numbers.
Another problem is that small animals generally can’t travel far. So, if their current home is disturbed, or if they face danger, it’s tough for them to find new homes or escape threats, which speed up their extinction, according to the study.
Apart from small animals, those living in extreme heat or cold, such as at the poles, are facing more threats from climate change. These places go through big weather changes, making life even more difficult for species that have already been dealing with tough conditions. As climate change worsens, these extreme environments change rapidly, posing a greater risk for the animals living there.
This study presented us with important information on how to protect wildlife as the world gets warmer. By focusing on the most vulnerable species, conservationists can direct their work more effectively, making the most of limited resources and improving the chances of keeping biodiversity alive despite the environmental challenges.
8．What does the underlined word “scarce” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A．Insufficient. B．Available. C．Unbalanced. D．Abundant.
9．What can be inferred from Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3
A．Smaller animals consume their energy at a lower speed.
B．The life span of animals is definitely decided by their size.
C．The small size of animals potentially limits their travelling distance.
D．Animals’ habitats destruction makes them difficult to escape threats.
10．What’s the function of the first sentence in Paragraph 4
A．Introducing the topic. B．Transiting to another point.
C．Echoing the content in paragraph 3. D．Summarizing the above paragraphs.
11．Which of the following is a suitable measure to protect wildlife
A．Focusing on keeping biodiversity. B．Carrying out more research work.
C．Reducing the usage of limited resources. D．Paying more attention to the most endangered species.
二．七选五
4 Reasons Why Wild Animals Are So Important
As we know, the earth gives us food, medicines and materials, often through wild animals. These wild animals are important to our existence. Sadly, they are becoming extinct at an alarming rate. We need to change this loss of nature and create a future where wildlife and people thrive (蓬勃发展) again. 12 Here are some reasons why wild animals are so important to the world at large.
Wild animals keep balance in ecosystems.
13 If any part is threatened or becomes extinct, this has a knock-on effect on the whole ecosystem. sending shock waves through the environment. For ecosystems to survive and perhaps even thrive, we must protect all of our wildlife.
Diversity (多样性) means healthier ecosystems and healthier wild animals.
When there is a wildlife issue, you’ll often hear the term biodiversity, which refers to the number of species in an ecosystem. 14 Why do we consider this important A wide variety of animals means greater productivity and better health. If there are fewer animal species, a disease that affects any species spreads faster and more effectively.
15
All of the food that we eat comes from an animal or plant. Living without various food sources causes our nutrition (营养) to suffer. Protecting wildlife and its natural habitats strengthens food safety for humans around the world.
Wildlife helps medical research.
Wild animals have helped us find important medicines that help with many diseases. 16 Many medical systems like Chinese traditional medicines still rely on herbs and spices, but even Western medicine have made great progress with wildlife research.
A．All living things are interconnected.
B．Healthy ecosystems mean a lot of diversity.
C．Or we will lose these animals to future generations.
D．People worldwide depend on wildlife for their snack.
E．Wildlife provides important nutrients for the human race.
F．The human race has always turned to nature for medicine.
G．We should notice the influence caused by wildlife on culture.

In an age of rapidly growing urbanization, rooftop farming has emerged as a sustainable response 32 the challenge of creating green space in cities. This innovative practice transforms rooftops into mini farms, where vegetables, fruits, and even flowers 33 (plant), providing local residents with fresh produce and adding a touch of nature to urban environments.
Rooftop farming, also 34 (refer) to as vertical agriculture, is more than just a trend; it’s a step towards environmental conservation. Green roofs with vegetation help to absorb sunlight and release moisture, cooling the air and reducing the demand for air conditioning, 35 in turn lessens energy 36 (consume) and carbon emission. Meanwhile, rooftop farms serve as educational platforms, 37 (teach) city dwellers about sustainable agriculture practices and the importance of 38 (local) sourced food.
As urban populations continue to grow, rooftop farming fosters community engagement 39 promotes healthier lifestyles by providing access to fresh and organic produce. When we look towards 40 future where environmental consciousness and sustainable practices become increasingly vital, rooftop farming stands as a testament to our ability to cultivate more than just food—we cultivate hope for a 41 (green) and more resilient (可迅速恢复的) world.
五、书面表达
42．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。续写的词数应为150左右。
I’d had a rather stressful day at work. It didn’t help that I’d also had another argument with my teenaged daughter that morning. By the time I arrived home, I eagerly anticipated getting my evening walk to clear my mind.
It was getting cloudier and I could tell that rain was coming. No problem. I would be home long before the liquid sunshine fell.
The intense walk worked off much of my energy. I slowed my pace, but a quick glance down shocked me. The cutest Jack Russell Terrier (杰克罗素梗犬) had appeared out of nowhere and was keeping pace beside me. I knelt to pet her, delighted to discover that her ears were so soft that she reminded me of my childhood dog. She had the same coloring as Lucky—white with a large black spot on her back and side, brown face, and white nose.
"Where did you come from, little one " She was not wearing a collar or identification tags. I continued my walk, thinking she would find her way home on her own. The little stray (流浪狗) continued to keep pace, walking next to me as if we were age-old companions. When I picked up my pace, so did she. When I slowed, she slowed. She never left my side.
When I looked around, I was not surprised that, other than the dog, I was alone on this dreary (沉闷的) night. The sky had already darkened. I was worried. If I left her out there, she might be hit by a car. I wondered if I should just take her home.
The timing was ironic (讽刺的). My sixteen-year-old daughter, Megan, wanted another pet. Our family dog, Daisy, had slowed considerably in her old age, and Megan hoped we would adopt a younger, livelier dog. We had resisted her requests. It didn't make sense to add another pet to ourfamily. My husband, John, and I were looking forward to a little more freedom. Besides, Megan and I had not exactly seen eye-to-eye earlier that day. I didn't want it to seem as if I was rewarding her after yet another argument.
Para 1: As the rain poured hard, I made the decision not to leave this adorable animal out in the rain.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para 2: With the days going by, the presence of the dog brought about a positive change in our home.

8．A 9．C 10．B 11．D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项利用海洋生物的化石研究发现，随着地球气候的持续变化，哪些动物面临最高的灭绝风险。
8．词句猜测题。根据划线单词前的“Smaller animals are more likely to become extinct because they tend to use up their energy quickly due to their size.(体型较小的动物更有可能灭绝，因为它们的体型往往会很快耗尽能量)”可知，体型较小的动物因为体型小往往很快耗尽能量而更有可能灭绝，结合划线单词前的“They need lots of food to keep going(它们需要大量的食物来维持生存)”可知，体型较小的动物需要大量的食物维持生存，所以任何造成食物“缺少”的变化都可能影响他们，由此可知，划线单词的意思与“缺少”意义相近。故选A项。
9．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Another problem is that small animals generally can’t travel far. So, if their current home is disturbed, or if they face danger, it’s tough for them to find new homes or escape threats, which speed up their extinction, according to the study.(另一个问题是，体型小的动物通常不能走远。因此，根据这项研究，如果它们目前的家园受到干扰，或者面临危险，它们很难找到新的家园或逃离威胁，这加速了它们的灭绝)”可知，体型小的动物不能走远，所以它们的家园面临危险时，他们很难找到新家，这加速了它们灭绝，由此可知，体型小的动物的体型小可能限制了它们的行进距离。故选C项。
10．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“So, if their current home is disturbed, or if they face danger, it’s tough for them to find new homes or escape threats, which speed up their extinction, according to the study.(因此，根据这项研究，如果它们目前的家园受到干扰，或者面临危险，它们很难找到新的家园或逃离威胁，这加速了它们的灭绝)”以及第四段中的“Apart from small animals, those living in extreme heat or cold, such as at the poles, are facing more threats from climate change.(除了体型小的动物，那些生活在极热或极冷环境中的动物，比如两极，正面临着气候变化带来的更多威胁)”可知，第三段讲述的是体型小的动物会面临着灭绝的危险，而第四段中讲述的是那些生活在极热或极冷环境中的动物面临着气候变化带来的威胁，由此可知，第四段首句起到过渡的作用，从介绍体型小的动物转移到那些生活在极热或极冷环境中的动物。故选B项。
11．细节理解题。根据尾段中的“By focusing on the most vulnerable species, conservationists can direct their work more effectively, making the most of limited resources and improving the chances of keeping biodiversity alive despite the environmental challenges.(通过关注最脆弱的物种，自然资源保护主义者可以更有效地指导他们的工作，最大限度地利用有限的资源，提高在环境挑战下保持生物多样性生存的机会)”可知，通过关注最脆弱的物种，人们可以最大限度地利用有限的资源，提高保持生物多样性生存的机会，由此可知，更多地关注最濒危的物种是保护野生动物的合适措施。故选D项。

Imagine living in a modern city. On any given morning, you might expect to look out your window and see a stream of cars and people on their way to work. In recent days, however, residents in Kunming. China — a city of some 6 million people — were preparing themselves for a more unusual sighting: a herd (群) of wild elephants.
Since March 2020, a group of 15 elephants has traveled more than 300 miles within Yunnan Province in China. They reportedly came within two miles of Kunming before turning around a few days ago. No one knows the reason why they left their home in Xishuangbanna Nature Reserve, but this long journey has brought much-needed public attention to the challenge facing Asian elephants.
Asian elephants range across 13 countries in South and Southeast Asia. And, sadly, they are endangered, with fewer than 50,000 left in the wild. And yet they are underrepresented on theglobal stage when their conservation needs are so urgent.
Living on the most thickly populated continent on the planet means that space is rare. It also means that habitat loss is the most significant threat facing Asian elephants. While illegal hunting also threatens these populations, human-elephant conflict resulting from habitat loss is a leading cause of elephant death in Asia. Elephants have significant space and resource needs and have been known to travel many miles a day in search of food and water. Today, on average, 70% of the Asian elephant population is found outside protected areas. This means they often travel through human-dominated landscapes and come into regular contact with people.
These interactions, or human-elephant conflicts, can result in crop and property damage. Most recently, the damage along the movement path of the elephant herd in China has amounted to losses of an estimated $1.1 million. While these animals have been closely watched and protected by local authorities who have been successful to date at preventing injury or death to either people or the elephant herd, human-elephant conflict can result in human death and injury and cause retaliatory (报复性的) action that further reduces wild elephant populations.
4．What do we know about the 15 elephants
A．They attacked residents in Kunming.
B．They draw public attention to their problem.
C．They prefer a modern city to a nature reserve.
D．They traveled more than 300 miles within Kunming.
5．What is a major cause of the extinction of Asian elephants
A．Illegal hunting. B．Loss of habitat.
C．Lack of protected areas. D．Ignored conservation needs.
6．What have the local authorities been trying to do according to the last paragraph
A．Avoid human-elephant conflicts.
B．Move the elephants to another region.
C．Predict the results of human-elephant conflicts.
D．Make up for the losses caused by the elephants.
7．Which of the following is the best title for the text
A．Asian Elephants: An Endangered Species Rescued
B．Urban Adventures of Elephants: A Taste of the City Life
C．Wandering Elephants: A Conservation Challenge in Asia
D．Elephant Sightings in Kunming: A City's Unusual Morning

From more boiling summers to more frequent floods, warming weather is impacting our lives in every aspect. For animals, however, it’s not just a comfortable living environment in danger, but their very existence. Many animals are in danger of disappearing due to climate change. A study published on March 7 used fossils from sea creatures to find out which animals are facing the highest risk of extinction as our planet’s climate continues to shift.
Carried out by the University of Oxford, the study found that the size of an animal plays a big part in its ability to survive and reproduce. Smaller animals are more likely to become extinct because they tend to use up their energy quickly due to their size. They need lots of food to keep going, so any change that makes food scarce affects them more. Furthermore, small animals usually don’t live as long as larger ones, making them more vulnerable to factors that might reduce their numbers.
Another problem is that small animals generally can’t travel far. So, if their current home is disturbed, or if they face danger, it’s tough for them to find new homes or escape threats, which speed up their extinction, according to the study.
Apart from small animals, those living in extreme heat or cold, such as at the poles, are facing more threats from climate change. These places go through big weather changes, making life even more difficult for species that have already been dealing with tough conditions. As climate change worsens, these extreme environments change rapidly, posing a greater risk for the animals living there.
This study presented us with important information on how to protect wildlife as the world gets warmer. By focusing on the most vulnerable species, conservationists can direct their work more effectively, making the most of limited resources and improving the chances of keeping biodiversity alive despite the environmental challenges.
8．What does the underlined word “scarce” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A．Insufficient. B．Available. C．Unbalanced. D．Abundant.
9．What can be inferred from Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3
A．Smaller animals consume their energy at a lower speed.
B．The life span of animals is definitely decided by their size.
C．The small size of animals potentially limits their travelling distance.
D．Animals’ habitats destruction makes them difficult to escape threats.
10．What’s the function of the first sentence in Paragraph 4
A．Introducing the topic. B．Transiting to another point.
C．Echoing the content in paragraph 3. D．Summarizing the above paragraphs.
11．Which of the following is a suitable measure to protect wildlife
A．Focusing on keeping biodiversity. B．Carrying out more research work.
C．Reducing the usage of limited resources. D．Paying more attention to the most endangered species.

4 Reasons Why Wild Animals Are So Important
As we know, the earth gives us food, medicines and materials, often through wild animals. These wild animals are important to our existence. Sadly, they are becoming extinct at an alarming rate. We need to change this loss of nature and create a future where wildlife and people thrive (蓬勃发展) again. 12 Here are some reasons why wild animals are so important to the world at large.
Wild animals keep balance in ecosystems.
13 If any part is threatened or becomes extinct, this has a knock-on effect on the whole ecosystem. sending shock waves through the environment. For ecosystems to survive and perhaps even thrive, we must protect all of our wildlife.
Diversity (多样性) means healthier ecosystems and healthier wild animals.
When there is a wildlife issue, you’ll often hear the term biodiversity, which refers to the number of species in an ecosystem. 14 Why do we consider this important A wide variety of animals means greater productivity and better health. If there are fewer animal species, a disease that affects any species spreads faster and more effectively.
15
All of the food that we eat comes from an animal or plant. Living without various food sources causes our nutrition (营养) to suffer. Protecting wildlife and its natural habitats strengthens food safety for humans around the world.
Wildlife helps medical research.
Wild animals have helped us find important medicines that help with many diseases. 16 Many medical systems like Chinese traditional medicines still rely on herbs and spices, but even Western medicine have made great progress with wildlife research.
A．All living things are interconnected.
B．Healthy ecosystems mean a lot of diversity.
C．Or we will lose these animals to future generations.
D．People worldwide depend on wildlife for their snack.
E．Wildlife provides important nutrients for the human race.
F．The human race has always turned to nature for medicine.
G．We should notice the influence caused by wildlife on culture.

In an age of rapidly growing urbanization, rooftop farming has emerged as a sustainable response 32 the challenge of creating green space in cities. This innovative practice transforms rooftops into mini farms, where vegetables, fruits, and even flowers 33 (plant), providing local residents with fresh produce and adding a touch of nature to urban environments.
Rooftop farming, also 34 (refer) to as vertical agriculture, is more than just a trend; it’s a step towards environmental conservation. Green roofs with vegetation help to absorb sunlight and release moisture, cooling the air and reducing the demand for air conditioning, 35 in turn lessens energy 36 (consume) and carbon emission. Meanwhile, rooftop farms serve as educational platforms, 37 (teach) city dwellers about sustainable agriculture practices and the importance of 38 (local) sourced food.
As urban populations continue to grow, rooftop farming fosters community engagement 39 promotes healthier lifestyles by providing access to fresh and organic produce. When we look towards 40 future where environmental consciousness and sustainable practices become increasingly vital, rooftop farming stands as a testament to our ability to cultivate more than just food—we cultivate hope for a 41 (green) and more resilient (可迅速恢复的) world.
五、书面表达
42．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。续写的词数应为150左右。
I’d had a rather stressful day at work. It didn’t help that I’d also had another argument with my teenaged daughter that morning. By the time I arrived home, I eagerly anticipated getting my evening walk to clear my mind.
It was getting cloudier and I could tell that rain was coming. No problem. I would be home long before the liquid sunshine fell.
The intense walk worked off much of my energy. I slowed my pace, but a quick glance down shocked me. The cutest Jack Russell Terrier (杰克罗素梗犬) had appeared out of nowhere and was keeping pace beside me. I knelt to pet her, delighted to discover that her ears were so soft that she reminded me of my childhood dog. She had the same coloring as Lucky—white with a large black spot on her back and side, brown face, and white nose.
"Where did you come from, little one " She was not wearing a collar or identification tags. I continued my walk, thinking she would find her way home on her own. The little stray (流浪狗) continued to keep pace, walking next to me as if we were age-old companions. When I picked up my pace, so did she. When I slowed, she slowed. She never left my side.
When I looked around, I was not surprised that, other than the dog, I was alone on this dreary (沉闷的) night. The sky had already darkened. I was worried. If I left her out there, she might be hit by a car. I wondered if I should just take her home.
The timing was ironic (讽刺的). My sixteen-year-old daughter, Megan, wanted another pet. Our family dog, Daisy, had slowed considerably in her old age, and Megan hoped we would adopt a younger, livelier dog. We had resisted her requests. It didn't make sense to add another pet to ourfamily. My husband, John, and I were looking forward to a little more freedom. Besides, Megan and I had not exactly seen eye-to-eye earlier that day. I didn't want it to seem as if I was rewarding her after yet another argument.
Para 1: As the rain poured hard, I made the decision not to leave this adorable animal out in the rain.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para 2: With the days going by, the presence of the dog brought about a positive change in our home.

8．A 9．C 10．B 11．D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项利用海洋生物的化石研究发现，随着地球气候的持续变化，哪些动物面临最高的灭绝风险。
8．词句猜测题。根据划线单词前的“Smaller animals are more likely to become extinct because they tend to use up their energy quickly due to their size.(体型较小的动物更有可能灭绝，因为它们的体型往往会很快耗尽能量)”可知，体型较小的动物因为体型小往往很快耗尽能量而更有可能灭绝，结合划线单词前的“They need lots of food to keep going(它们需要大量的食物来维持生存)”可知，体型较小的动物需要大量的食物维持生存，所以任何造成食物“缺少”的变化都可能影响他们，由此可知，划线单词的意思与“缺少”意义相近。故选A项。
9．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Another problem is that small animals generally can’t travel far. So, if their current home is disturbed, or if they face danger, it’s tough for them to find new homes or escape threats, which speed up their extinction, according to the study.(另一个问题是，体型小的动物通常不能走远。因此，根据这项研究，如果它们目前的家园受到干扰，或者面临危险，它们很难找到新的家园或逃离威胁，这加速了它们的灭绝)”可知，体型小的动物不能走远，所以它们的家园面临危险时，他们很难找到新家，这加速了它们灭绝，由此可知，体型小的动物的体型小可能限制了它们的行进距离。故选C项。
10．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“So, if their current home is disturbed, or if they face danger, it’s tough for them to find new homes or escape threats, which speed up their extinction, according to the study.(因此，根据这项研究，如果它们目前的家园受到干扰，或者面临危险，它们很难找到新的家园或逃离威胁，这加速了它们的灭绝)”以及第四段中的“Apart from small animals, those living in extreme heat or cold, such as at the poles, are facing more threats from climate change.(除了体型小的动物，那些生活在极热或极冷环境中的动物，比如两极，正面临着气候变化带来的更多威胁)”可知，第三段讲述的是体型小的动物会面临着灭绝的危险，而第四段中讲述的是那些生活在极热或极冷环境中的动物面临着气候变化带来的威胁，由此可知，第四段首句起到过渡的作用，从介绍体型小的动物转移到那些生活在极热或极冷环境中的动物。故选B项。
11．细节理解题。根据尾段中的“By focusing on the most vulnerable species, conservationists can direct their work more effectively, making the most of limited resources and improving the chances of keeping biodiversity alive despite the environmental challenges.(通过关注最脆弱的物种，自然资源保护主义者可以更有效地指导他们的工作，最大限度地利用有限的资源，提高在环境挑战下保持生物多样性生存的机会)”可知，通过关注最脆弱的物种，人们可以最大限度地利用有限的资源，提高保持生物多样性生存的机会，由此可知，更多地关注最濒危的物种是保护野生动物的合适措施。故选D项。

13．根据本段小标题“Wild animals keep balance in ecosystems.(野生动物维持生态系统的平衡。)”及设空处后文“If any part is threatened or becomes extinct, this has a knock-on effect on the whole ecosystem, sending shockwaves through the environment.(如果任何一部分受到威胁或灭绝，就会对整个生态系统产生连锁反应，在整个环境中发出冲击波。)”可知，野生动物保持了生态平衡，所有的生命都是相互联系，相互影响的。因此，设空处应承接主题，同时引出后文。A项“All living things are interconnected.(所有生物都是相互联系的。)”承上启下，符合文意。故选A。
14．根据设空处后文“Why do we consider this important A wide variety of animals means greater productivity and better health. If there are fewer animal species, a disease that affects any species spreads faster and more effectively.(为什么我们认为这很重要 种类繁多的动物意味着更高的生产力和更好的健康状况。如果动物种类较少，影响任何物种的疾病就会传播得更快、更有效。)”可知，后文主要介绍动物种类繁多会给人类带来生产力和健康方面的好处。结合本段小标题“Diversity (多样性) means healthier ecosystems and healthier wild animals.(多样性意味着更健康的生态系统和更健康的野生动物。)”可知，本段主要介绍种类繁多的动物与健康的生态系统之间的紧密关系。因此，设空处应承接前文话题，并引出后文内容。B项“Healthy ecosystems mean a lot of diversity.(健康的生态系统意味着多样性。)”承上启下，符合文意。故选B。
15．根据本段内容“All of the food that we eat comes from an animal or plant. Living without various food sources causes our nutrition (营养) to suffer. Protecting wildlife and its natural habitats strengthens food safety for humans around the world.(我们吃的所有食物都来自动物或植物。没有各种食物来源的生活使我们的营养受到影响。保护野生动物及其自然栖息地可以加强世界各地人类的食品安全。)”可知，本段主要介绍野生动物能满足人类的营养需求。结合前后文段首的结构特点可知，设空处应总结后文。E项“Wildlife provides important nutrients to the human race.(野生动物为人类提供重要的营养。)”总结全段，符合文意。故选E。
16．根据设空处后文“Many medical systems like Chinese traditional medicines still rely on herbs and spices, but even Western medicine have made great progress with wildlife research.(许多医疗系统，如中药，仍然依赖草药和香料，但即使是西医，也在野生动物研究方面取得了很大进展。)”可知，后文列举中药和西药的例子是为了进一步解释人类向大自然中的动植物寻求药材。因此，设空处应对后文的两个事例做出总结。F项“The human race has always turned to nature for medicine.(人类一直向自然寻求药材。)”概括后文事例，符合文意。故选F。

42．Para 1: As the rain poured hard, I made the decision not to leave this adorable animal out in the rain. I broke into a jog, with the little stray never leaving my side. Together, we jogged the final half-mile home in the rain. When I opened the door, the Terrier rushed in and ran straight to Megan. Megan and her dad rapidly fired questions regarding the little dog. Who What Where None of my answers mattered once this bundle of energy jumped into Megan’s lap, sniffing her with her white nose. They seemed to share an instant connection, and Megan’s eyes lit up with delight.
Para 2: With the days going by, the presence of the dog brought about a positive change in our home. Megan and I found ourselves bonding over caring for the new addition to our family. We took turns walking her and teaching her tricks. The Terrier became a constant source of comfort and companionship for both Megan and me. We would often find ourselves sitting together on the couch, stroking her soft fur and sharing stories about our day. This cute Terrier not only found a home with us but also helped us discover a newfound understanding and appreciation for each other through these shared experience.
