五、拓展练习
Turning soil, pulling weeds, and harvesting cabbage sound like tough work for middle and high school kids. And at first it is, says Abby Jaramillo, who with another teacher started Urban Sprouts, a school garden program at four low-income schools. The program aims to help students develop science skills, environmental awareness, and healthy lifestyles.
Jaramillo's students live in neighborhoods where fresh food and green space are not easy to find and fast food restaurants outnumber grocery stores. "The kids literally come to school with bags of snacks and large bottles of soft drinks," she says. "They come to us thinking vegetables are awful, dirt is awful, insects are awful." Though some are initially scared of the insects and turned off by the dirt, most are eager to try something new.
Urban Sprouts' classes, at two middle schools and two high schools, include hands-on experiments such as soil testing, flower-and-seed dissection, tastings of fresh or dried produce, and work in the garden. Several times a year, students cook the vegetables they grow, and they occasionally make salads for their entire schools.
Program evaluations show that kids eat more vegetables as a result of the classes. "We have students who say they went home and talked to their parents and now they're eating differently," Jaramillo says.
She adds that the program's benefits go beyond nutrition. Some students get so interested in gardening that they bring home seeds to start their own vegetable gardens. Besides, working in the garden seems to have a calming effect on Jaramillo's special education students, many of whom have emotional control issues. "They get outside," she says, "and they feel successful."
11.What do we know about Abby Jaramillo
A. She used to be a health worker. B. She grew up in a low-income family.
C. She owns a fast food restaurant. D. She is an initiator of Urban Sprouts.
12.What was a problem facing Jaramillo at the start of the program
A. The kids' parents distrusted her. B. Students had little time for her classes.
C. Some kids disliked garden work. D. There was no space for school gardens.
13.Which of the following best describes the impact of the program
A. Far-reaching. B. Predictable. C. Short-lived. D. Unidentifiable.
14.What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Rescuing School Gardens. B. Experiencing Country Life.
C. Growing Vegetable Lovers. D. Changing Local Landscape.
15.Green travel is becoming more and more popular. Travelers are changing their usual holiday places through green travel. It is not only good for the earth, but also for the experience of the trip. ①___ ___

2.答案:are
解析:考查时态和主谓一致。句意:这家公司百分之八十的工人是妇女。陈述客观事实用一般现在时,且“分数或百分数+of+名词”作主语时,其谓语动词形式要以of后面的名词而定,percent后的名词是workers,所以用动词复数。故填are。

解析:句意为: 很多专家提倡对孩子的良好表现进行奖励。advocate意为"提倡", 后常接动名词作宾语, 故此处填rewarding。
6.答案:officially
解析:考查副词。句意:那所学院不是官方认可的英语语言学校。设空处修饰recognized,故用副词形式。
7.答案:annually
解析:考查副词。句意:建议我们每年做体检。设空处修饰 have,应用副词形式
8.答案:indications

五、拓展练习
When an empty parking spot appears before us, many of us would see it for what it is—a place that could be filled with cars and trucks. But to eco-engineer Shubhendu Sharma, it's a space to be planted with trees and turned into a forest.
What's more, he believes these tiny forests can grow anywhere, including our most crowded and polluted cities where they can help maintain clean air and water and provide habitat for animals and insects. "A forest is not an isolated piece of land where animals live together, "says Sharma. "A forest can be a complete part of our urban existence." Most of us know just how important trees are to our health and to the planet. Yet millions of hectares of forest are cleared every year due to farming, ranching, logging and construction. The World Wildlife Fund estimates that 20 percent of the Amazon rainforest and surrounding ecosystems have already been lost.
Inspired by the work of Japanese scientist Akira Miyawaki, Sharma built a forest in the backyard of his family's home in northern India in 2010. He planted 100 young trees in the 75-square-metre plot. They grew and a dozen species of birds came to check them out. The plantings created welcome shade, and their roots were able to absorb even the abundant monsoon (季风) rains. After a year, he had his own forest. Since then, Sharma has founded a company called Afforestt. Its top priority is to bring back natural forests to places where they no longer exist. So far, Afforestt has planted 144 forests in 45 cities around the world. Sharma has shown you can take a space—the size of six or seven parking spots and create a forest with 100 trees. Ready to create your own tiny forest If your answer is yes, let's follow Sharma's 5-step procedures to grow our own forests.
11.What may ordinary people regard a parking spot as
A.A place for parking vehicles. B.A place for planting trees.
C.A place for building houses. D.A place for producing cars and trucks.
12.What does the underlined word "they" refer to in Paragraph 2
A.Cities. B.Forests.
C.Air and water. D.Animals and insects.
13.How many trees has Afforestt planted
A.45. B.144. C.224. D.14,400.
14.What will be talked about in the following paragraphs
A.How to create a forest. B.Why we should plant trees.
C.What kind of forest we need. D.Who will follow the steps.
15.Greening the Kubuqi Desert
China has seen great achievements in improving the environment and green development over the past 70 years. Solid efforts have been made to fight pollution and continuously improve the environment.

In addition, the group's techniques have also been used in many ecological(生态的) programs, including Yangtze River Ecological Park and Qilian Mountain National Park.
"⑤______ With the help of modern technologies, such as drones, AI, big data and the internet of things, we are sure to achieve greater success," said Ao Baoping, chief executive officer of Elion Green Land Technology.
A. Once the environment gets better, we will live a happier life.

G. We will come up with new ways to improve our ability to control the sand.
答案以及解析

解析:句意为: 他提议把会议推迟到下周, 你认为如何 proposal意为"提议; 建议", 后面的名词性从句应用虚拟语气, 即从句谓语用"should+动词原形", should可以省略。设空处与从句主语meeting为被动关系, 故填be put。

五、拓展练习
The effects of noise can reach organisms (生物) without ears. Because of the way living things rely on each other, noise pollution may actually stop some forests from growing, a new study suggests. In an area of woodland of pine trees in New Mexico, researchers found far fewer tree seedlings (幼苗) in noisy sites than they did in quiet ones.
The study area is dotted with gas wells, some of which are quiet and some of which have compressors (压缩机) that create constant noise. This allowed Jennifer Phillips, a behavioral ecologist at Texas A&M University-San Antonio, and her colleagues to compare sites that are similar except for the noise level. In areas that had been noisy for at least 15 years, only about 13 pine seedlings were found per hectare (公顷), compared with 55 pine seedlings in quiet areas.
The differences in plant growth were probably caused by changes in animal behavior, said Phillips. For example, noise might drive away certain pollinators (传粉者) such as bees, bats and moths. In the case of pine trees, the problem was likely a lack of animals to disperse seeds. Pines depend on birds to carry their seeds away from the parent tree, and birds are known to avoid noise. The differences between the two sites aren't yet obvious to someone walking through them, said Sarah Termondt, a botanist(植物学家) with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service who helped conduct the study. That's probably because pines are slow-growing, with most of the mature trees in such woodlands being over a century old.
The study raises questions about the future of the area. "If the noise stays there in the long term, are we going to lose this important ecosystem of the pine which supports so much wildlife " said Phillips. The study was published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
11.What does the new study focus on
A.The influence of noise pollution on plants.
B.The way organisms receive noise.
C. The harm of noise pollution to insects.
D.The effects of noise pollution on humans.
12.What can be learned from Paragraph 2
A.Gas wells dotted around the area provide favorable conditions for the study.
B.The study sites are different in many ways including their noise level.
C.It is difficult for plants to live without noise and animals.
D.People can easily find the differences between the noisy and the quiet sites.
13.What does the underlined word "mature" in Paragraph 3 mean
A.Young. B.Thin. C.Full-grown. D.Tall.
14.What did Phillips mean by saying the words in the last paragraph
A.Noise pollution is obviously a trouble that can be avoided.
B.Noise pollution could be a threat with the power to change ecosystems.
C.The pine forest is important because it supports so much wildlife.
D.Wildlife should be well protected for the future of this area
15.The process by which rich land becomes desert is called desertification(沙漠化). ①______The U. N. says up to 45 percent of Africa's land is impacted by desertification, worse than any other continent.
Africa's Great Green Wall is a project to build an 8000-kilometer-long forest across 11 of the continent's countries. The project is meant to contain the growing Sahara Desert and fight climate change. ② _____They include limited political support, lack of money, weak organizational structures, and not enough consideration for the environment. Just 4 million hectares of land have been turned into forest since the work on the Great Green Wall began 15 years ago. ③______
Launched in 2007, the project aims to plant a forest from Senegal on the Atlantic Ocean in western Africa to Eritrea, Ethiopia and Djibouti in the east. ④____ 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.
⑤_____They say some progress has been made in recent years in the east of the continent. For example, efforts in Eritrea and Sudan have 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. It has severe impacts on the environment.
B. That is only 4 percent of the program's goal.
C. However, it is difficult to carry out the project.
D. But the project has been facing many problems.
E. The project would create millions of green jobs in rural Africa.
F. Despite many problems, those involved in the project remain hopeful.
G. Some countries have struggled to keep up with the demands of the project.

解析:考查动词的时态。句意:阿姆斯特丹的人们多年来一直在享受骑自行车的好处。由时间状语和句意可知这里应用现在完成进行时,表示enjoy这个动作从过去延续到现在,将来可能还会继续。
2.答案:amazing
解析:考查词性转换。句意:让人惊叹的是我母亲如何用每周不到三十美元养育了三个孩子。amazing令人吃惊的。
3.答案:are disappearing
解析:考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意:随着社会的发展,许多传统习俗正在消失。由句意可知,这里指正在消失,故用现在进行时,customs为复数,故填are disappearing。
4.答案:known
解析:句意为: 旧金山计划建立免费的、全球共享的无线接入网络, 就是我们熟知的Wi-Fi。be known as为固定搭配, 意为"作为......被熟知", 此处为过去分词作后置定语。
5.答案:disappear
解析:句意为: 流感的症状可能会令人不舒服, 但是服药后症状在几天内就会消失。根据后面的after taking the medicine可知, 设空处应表示症状"消失"。appear意为"出现", 反义词为disappear, 意为"消失"。
6.答案:beneficial
解析:句意为: 骑车对我们的健康和环境非常有益。be beneficial to为固定搭配, 意为"对......有益", 故此处填形容词beneficial。
7.答案:has been working
解析:句意为: 这三天玛丽一直在努力写她的书, 她认为在周五前可以完成。根据上下文可知, 玛丽从过去到现在一直在努力写书, 表示持续的动作, 故用现在完成进行时。
8.答案:had booked
解析:句意为: 如果我们早点预订一张桌子, 现在就不用在这里排这么长的队了。此处考查if从句的虚拟语气, 根据时间状语earlier和now可知, 本题为错综时间虚拟语气, 从句是对过去的虚拟, 故填过去完成时had booked。

10.答案:determination
解析:考查名词。句意:不可能与可能的区别在于一个人的决心。设空处由名词所有格修饰,应用名词,故填 determination,表示“决心”。
11.答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的"Because of the way living things rely on each other, noise pollution may actually stop some forests from growing, a new study suggests."可知,由于生物相互依赖的方式,噪声污染实际上可能会阻碍一些森林的生长,所以这项新研究的重点是噪声污染对植物的影响。故选A。
12.答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据第二段第一句"The study area is dotted with gas wells... compressors that create constant noise."可知,研究区域布满了天然气井,有些天然气井很安静,有些天然气井有会持续产生噪声的压缩机。再结合第二段第二句"This allowed Jennifer Phillips... and her colleagues to compare sites that are similar except for the noise level."可知,前面所说的情况使研究人员能够控制变量,以便对不同区域进行噪声影响的对比,此句中的"This"指的是前面所说的该区域的环境条件。由此可知,该地区的天然气井星罗棋布,使得噪声情况有所区别,为研究提供了有利条件。故选A。
13.答案:C
解析:词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的"most of the mature trees in such woodlands being over a century old"可知,这里的"mature trees"中大部分都是有百年树龄的树,也就是“长成的”树。所以画线词的意思是“长成的,成熟的”。故选C。
14.答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中 Phillips说的话"If the noise stays there in the long term, are we going to lose this important ecosystem of the pine which supports so much wildlife (如果那里长期存在噪声,我们会失去这个重要的、支撑着如此多的野生生物的松木生态系统吗 )"可推测,最后一段中Phillips 说的话的意思是噪声污染可能会成为改变生态系统的威胁。故选B。
15.答案:①-⑤ ADBEF
解析:①根据下文"The U. N. says up to 45 percent of Africa's land is impacted by desertification, worse than any other continent.(联合国表示,非洲多达45%的土地受到荒漠化的影响,比其他任何大陆都严重。)"可知,该空是介绍沙漠化对环境的影响,A项"It has severe impacts on the environment.(它对环境有严重影响。)"中的impacts为解题的关键信息,所讲述的内容与下文一致。故选A。
②根据下文"They include limited political support, lack of money, weak organizational structures, and not enough consideration for the environment.(它们包括有限的政治支持,缺乏资金,组织结构薄弱以及对环境的考虑不足。)"列举了各种问题,与D项"But the project has been facing many problems.(但该项目一直面临许多问题。)"呼应。故选D。
③根据空格位于段尾可知,此处应该是对该段的总结,上文"Just 4 million hectares of land have been turned into forest since the work on the Great Green Wall began 15 years ago.(自15年前绿色长城工程开始以来,只有400万公顷的土地变成了森林。)"讲述的是自15年前绿色长城工程开始以来的取得的成绩,B项"That is only 4 percent of the program's goal.(这只是该计划目标的4%。)"中的that指代的内容与上文内容相符合。故选B。
④根据空后"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.(它还可以降低该地区与气候相关的迁移水平,并从空气中捕获数亿吨二氧化碳。)"可知,该空所填内容是对项目好处的表述,E项"The project would create millions of green jobs in rural Africa."讲述的该项目产生的影响,符合语境。故选E。
⑤根据下文"They say some progress has been made in recent years in the east of the continent.(他们说,近年来非洲大陆东部取得了一些进展。)"可知,此空所填内容中必须包含名词复数与该句中的代词they指代内容一致,F项"Despite many problems, those involved in the project remain hopeful.(尽管存在许多问题,但参与该项目的人仍然充满希望。)"中的those指代内容与they一致,结合上下文语意理解,可以判断F项符合语境。故选F。Unit 8 Green Living Lesson 1 Roots and Shoots—高一英语北师大版(2019)必修第三册课前导学

五、拓展练习
The warm coast of California is a place where many western monarch butterflies travel to stay during the cold winter months in the United States. Researchers fear the record low number of monarchs this year could mean the insects are in danger of disappearing in the near future.
The Xerces Society works on conservation efforts for insects. Last winter, it recorded around 29,000 butterflies in its yearly survey. That was similar to the winter before, when an all-time low of 27,000 monarchs was counted. But the count this year is dangerously low. Fewer than 2,000 orange-and-black butterflies are in the yearly count this January, which showed a big drop in recent years. On the eastern side of the Rocky Mountains, another monarch butterfly population has decreased by more than 80 percent since the mid-1990s.
Causes for the extremely low numbers of butterflies in the western states include homebuilding and chemical use, which destroyed milkweed plants along their migratory(迁移的) path. The plants are needed for monarch butterflies to grow and develop. Climate changes interfere with the growth of wild plants. And huge wildfires in the west may also have influenced their migration.
A 2017 Washington State University study predicted that monarch butterflies would likely disappear within 10to 20 years if the population dropped below 30,000 and nothing was done to save them.
Action should be taken to provide protection for their food supply and environment, including their migratory path. The Xerces Society said it will keep working with other partners to protect the monarch. The organization added that people can help by planting flowers and milkweed along these butterflies' migratory path.
11.Why do the researchers fear the possibility of monarch butterflies disappearing
A. Because the warm coast of California is getting cold during the winter months.
B. Because most of them are killed by huge wildfires.
C. Because the population of this species is varied.
D. Because the number of monarch butterflies has dropped sharply.
12.What does Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. Milkweed plants need monarchs to grow and develop.
B. Factors of the decrease in numbers of monarchs.
C. Human activities have influenced the climate change.
D. The importance of milkweed to the environment.
13.What does the underlined phrase "interfere with" in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Lead. B. Help. C. Reserve. D. Disturb.
14.What can we infer from the last 2 paragraphs
A. Within 10 to 20 years monarch butterflies will disappear.
B. The migratory path of monarch butterflies is under protection.
C. Milkweed should be planted along monarchs' migratory path.
D. It is dangerous if the number of a species is below 30,000.
15.Many people say dolphins are intelligent. They seem to be able to think, understand, and learn things quickly. But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats and dogs ①________.But scientists say dolphins and humans are alike in some ways. How
Like humans, every dolphin has its own "name." The name is a special whistle(哨声). Each dolphin chooses a whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday. Dolphins are like people in other ways, too. They "talk" to each other about a lot of things—such as their age, their feelings, and possible danger. ②_______. Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans. No one "speaks dolphin" yet, but some scientists are trying to learn.
③________. They often join other dolphins to play games and have fun together, just like people. Sometimes they run after other dolphins carrying objects and throw these objects back and forth. Scientists believe playing together is something only intelligent animals do.
Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: ④________. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent method to get food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. With the dolphins' help, the men can catch a lot of fish. Why do dolphins help the men There is an advantage for the dolphins: ⑤_______.
A. Dolphins live in groups
B. The fishermen ask the dolphins for help
C. They both make plans for getting things they want
D. Scientists have studied the brains of cats and dogs
E. They get to eat some of the fish that escape from the net
F. Dolphins use their brains quite differently from the way humans do
G. A system of sounds and body language are also used to communicate

15.答案:①-⑤ FGACE
解析:本文是一篇说明文。本文主要通过举例说明在某些方面海豚与人类很相像。
①根据后文"But scientists say dolphins and humans are alike in some ways. How (但是科学家说海豚和人类在某些方面很相似。那是怎么样的呢?)"可知,空处与后文之间是转折关系,故空处应指海豚与人类不同的地方,故F项"Dolphins use their brains quite differently from the way humans do.(海豚使用大脑的方式与人类完全不同)"符合语意。故选F。
②根据前文"They "talk" to each other about a lot of things—such as their age, their feelings, and possible danger.(他们互相"谈论"很多事情——比如他们的年龄、他们的感觉和可能的危险。)"以及后文"Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans.(理解海豚的对话对人类来说并不容易。)"可知,此处讲述的是海豚与人类的一个相似之处就是,海豚也会进行"对话",用它们自己的方式进行。故选项"A system of sounds and body language are also used to communicate(声音和肢体语言系统也被用来交流)"衔接上下文,符合语意。故选G。
③根据后文"They often join other dolphins to play games and have fun together, just like people.( 它们经常和其他海豚一起玩游戏,一起玩得开心,就像人一样。)"可知,海豚跟人一样,都是喜欢做一些群体性的活动,因此选项A"Dolphins live in groups(海豚群居生活)"引起下文内容,符合语意。故选A。
④根据后文"In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent method to get food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal to the fishermen to put their nets in the water.(例如,在巴西南部海域,海豚用一种聪明的方法获取食物。当船附近有鱼时,海豚会向渔民发出信号,让他们把网放入水中。)"可知,海豚很聪明,要获得它们想要的东西时,它们会有所行动,有计划进行,这点跟人相似。故选项C"They both make plans for getting things they want(他们都为得到他们想要的东西制定计划)"符合语意。故选C。
⑤根据前文"Why do dolphins help the men There is an advantage for the dolphins:(为什么海豚帮助人类?海豚有一个优势:)"可知,海豚帮助人类,它们也有一些好处的。故选项E"They get to eat some of the fish that escape from the net(他们可以吃一些从网中逃脱的鱼)"符合语意。故选E。
