答案与解析
【语篇解读】文章报道了中国科学家第一次使用自主研发的射电望远镜发现并确定了六颗脉冲星。
1.known 考查非谓语动词。主语Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope和动词know是逻辑上的动宾关系,所以用动词-ed形式作定语。
2.opening 考查非谓语动词。thus指代这是中国科学家第一次使用由中国科学家自主研发的射电望远镜发现脉冲星。这一发现和动词open是主动关系,所以用动词-ing形式作结果状语。
3.was discovered 考查语态。主语the first pulsar和动词discover是被动关系,动作发生在过去,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。
4.in/within 考查介词。此处指几乎所有的脉冲星都在银河系的范围内,表示“在……内”用in/within。
5.to find 考查非谓语动词。表示“允许某人做某事”用allow sb to do sth。
6.scientific 考查形容词。此处修饰名词data,所以用形容词形式,故填scientific。
7.which 考查定语从句。此处是非限制性定语从句,用关系代词which引导,指代前面整个句子。
8.a 考查冠词。句中road是单数可数名词,此处指其创新的工程理念和设计铺设了一条新路,表示数量一,故填a。
9.areas 考查名词。句中area是可数名词,由other修饰用复数形式,指其他领域,故填areas。
10.will remain 考查时态。根据时间状语the next 10 to 20 years可知,句子用一般将来时,所以填will remain。

Can you imagine a cloud floating in the middle of your room?Do you want to know what it feels like to fly like a bird?Find your answers in Time Magazine’s 25 “Best Inventions”.Here,we have picked out the most interesting 4 to share with you.
Talking Gloves
Ever felt confused by the sign language used by disabled people?Here is the “helping hand” you need.Four Ukrainian students have created a pair of gloves that helps people with hearing and speech problems communicate with others.The gloves are equipped with sensors that recognise sign language and translate it into text on a smartphone.Then the smartphone changes the text to spoken words.
Google Glasses
Google Glasses are like a computer built into the frame of a pair of glasses.With its 1.3-centimeter display,the glasses allow you to surf the Internet and make calls without even lifting a finger.The glasses also have a camera and GPS mapping system.Users can take and share photos,check maps and surf the Internet just by looking up,down,left and right.
Indoor Clouds
It’s not virtual.That’s a real world.Dutch artist Smilde managed to create a small but perfect white cloud in the middle of a room using a fog machine.But it required careful planning—the temperature,humidity(湿度)and lighting all had to be just right.Once everything was ready,the cloud formed in the air with the machine.But it only lasted for a short while.
Wingsuits
The suit fulfills your dreams of flying like a bird.Well,not exactly flying,but gliding(滑翔)through the air.It increases the surface area of the human body,which makes it easier for people to float in the air.Fliers wearing wingsuits can glide one kilometer in about 30 seconds.

“Good morning,sweetie!” he greeted the child and her mom,Tracy.“Oh my God.How are you?I got you a card.I got you a coloring book and there’s something else in there for you,”he told Sebastiana as he handed her a goodie bag.

“My daughter is very happy,”Tracy told InsideEdition.com Friday.“That’s just the way she is.In the morning,when she sees him coming,she gets very excited.They just developed a friendship.”
Inside Sebastiana’s card,Reed wrote:“I can honestly say that over the past months you have been my favorite bus passenger.Your happy smile and warm everyday Good Mornings have brightened my everyday.I want to thank you for being a GREAT EXAMPLE for others to follow.”
Reed was very kind to little Sebastiana and the other passengers.That’s what made Tracy so impressed.So she took to her Facebook account to explain her daughter’s special connection to the bus driver.

Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts.The microorganisms(微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station,so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week.How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem?It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids.But not just any kids.It depending on NASA HUNCH high school class,like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport,New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers.For the past two years,Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity,and they think they’re close to a solution.“We don’t give the students any breaks.They have to do it just like NASA engineers,” says Florence Gold,a project manager.
“There are no tests,” Gordon says.“There is no graded homework.There almost are no grades,other than ‘Are you working towards your goal?’ Basically,it’s ‘I’ve got to produce this product and then,at the end of year,present it to NASA.’ Engineers come and really do an in-person review,and...it’s not a very nice thing at time.It’s a hard business review of your product.”
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact(影响) on college admissions and practical life skills.“These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back.I don’t teach.” And that annoying bacteria?Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem,readying a workable solution to test in space.

Like Marty McFly’s banana-powered DeLorean (德罗宁时光机),a future generation of flying cars could tip over the idea that all flying is bad for the climate.Firms such as the Rolls Royce,Lilium and Vertical Aerospace have argued that flying cars could be a green mode of transport despite the large amounts of energy they need to get off the ground.
One study into the environmental impact of such vertical(垂直的) takeoff and landing (VTOL) vehicles suggests their backers could be right — at least in some circumstances.Gregory Keoleian at the University of Michigan and colleagues found that VTOLs,if they ever took to the skies,would produce 6 percent less emissions than an electric car over a 100-kilometre journey.“The VTOL is particularly energy intensive (集中的) during takeoff and landing.The flight phase,however,is much more efficient,and over long distances,makes fully loaded VTOLs competitive with ground based vehicles,”says Keoleian.Flying cars would also have the advantage of being able to fly in a straight line,by passing meandering routes.
However,don’t act immediately.The difference was only very small and there are several big catches.Flying cars don’t really exist yet — they are only at the prototype(蓝本) stage.The prototypes rely on electric power and act as a taxi,but another issue is that the study is a bit of an apples-for-oranges comparison.
The researchers assume that each electric car carries an average of 1.54 passengers while the passengers and drivers of the flying car are three and one.The reason for this assumption is that the flying car will provide a shared taxi service like UberPool,but in fact electric cars can do the same.In addition’t due to the need for energy during take off,the emissions from the flight below 35km will be more than those of electric vehicles.
Keoleian and his team conclude flying cars could have a minor role in sustainable transport.But even if they do prove to be green,they have a lot of other hurdles to cross first.
【语篇解读】本文属于说明文,介绍飞行汽车的优势以及自身的问题。
32.Why do firms like the Rolls Royce argue for flying cars?
A.They are banana-powered.
B.They are environmentally-friendly.
C.They run faster.
D.They need less energy to take off.
答案B
解析推理判断题。根据第一段第二句可知,像劳斯莱斯这样的公司都在讨论,飞行汽车可能是一种绿色的交通工具,对环境有好处。
33.What does Keoleian’s study find about the VTOL vehicles?
A.They are nearly perfect.
B.They are able to fly in a straight line.
C.They can win out over long distances.
D.They can save 6% energy than electric cars.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据第二段第四句可知,Keoleian认为在飞行期间,VTOL更高效,在长途运输的时候,满载的VTOL更能够与传统的汽车相抗衡,所以C项正确。
34.What does the underlined word “catches” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Problems.
B.Advantages.
C.Differences.
D.Efforts.
答案A
解析词义猜测题。根据后文“Flying cars don’t really exist yet — they are only at the prototype stage.”可知,如今飞行汽车还停留在雏形阶段。由此猜测,catch意思为“缺陷,问题”。
35.What is the author’s attitude to flying cars?
A.Doubtful.
B.Supportive.
C.Disapproving.
D.Neutral.
答案D
解析推理判断题。分析文章可知,作者首先描述飞行汽车的优势,同时也指出,飞行汽车与电动汽车相比没有什么实质性的优点,故可知,作者对飞行汽车的态度是比较客观和中立的,故选D项。

阅读下面短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Over the next 50 years,we are going to send more and better robots to Mars. 36 There is a limit to what robots can tell us,though,so eventually we will have to send people to study the planet.?
Before people can visit Mars,we need to invent a spaceship that can take us there. 37 Depending on where Mars and Earth are in their orbits around the sun,it could take between six months to a year to get there.?
The moon is much closer,and we were there more than 40 years ago.Over the next 10 years,we are going to work on building a new spacecraft. 38 ?
Once we return to the moon,we are going to build a station so that people can live and work on the moon for months at a time.This is important so that we have a place to start from when we want to visit Mars. 39 ?
By the time you are old enough to be an astronaut,we will have people spending months on the moon.By the time you are old enough to be a commander of a space mission,we will be taking trips to Mars.By the time your kids are old enough to be astronauts,we may have people living on Mars.Wouldn’t it be cool to get a postcard from someone who was building a house on Mars? 40 ?
A.Mars is very far away.
B.People will go to live on Mars one day.
C.Wouldn’t it be cooler if it was you who sent the postcard?
D.Using this craft,we will practice the skills we need to go to Mars.
E.Those robots will send back better pictures,maps,and weather reports.
F.It would be possible for us to go to Mars in a spacecraft in the near future.
G.However,it is also important because it gives us practice with living away from Earth.
答案与解析
【语篇解读】在探索火星的过程中,由于机器人本身所限,它们无法告诉人们想知道的一切,因此最终将会有人类登上火星并对它进行研究。
36.E 上文谈到“在未来50年我们将向火星发送更多更好的飞船”,选项E中提到“Those robots”,与上文意思自然衔接。
37.A 根据下文的“依据火星和地球在轨道中的位置,到达火星需要半年到一年的时间”可知,这里谈的是地球到火星的距离,所以A项符合。
38.D 根据上文的“we are going to work on building a new spacecraft”可知,D项中的“Using this craft,...”与此语意相符。
39.G 上文提到“This is important...”,G项中的“However,it is also important...”与上文形成排比关系。
40.C 解答该题的关键词是postcard,C项“如果发贺卡的人是你那不是更酷吗?”语境相符。

The ambulance is on its way.”?
Eventually the ambulance arrived.I handed the finger to the nurse and they 51 away.Suddenly I felt 52 helping someone in need,even if pushing three buttons on a 53 was all I did.I would keep on doing it.?

(science) methods may need to be fully improved before any further progress is made.?
答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章主要对大爆炸理论进行了介绍。
56.was created 考查一般过去时的被动语态。universe与create之间是被动关系,且create所表示的动作发生在过去,故填was created。
57.finally 考查副词。设空处作状语修饰cooled和formed,故填finally。
58.which 考查关系代词。此处为由“介词+关系代词”引导的限制性定语从句,修饰先行词stars and galaxies,因该关系代词在从句中作介词with的宾语,故填which。
59.that 考查连接词。It is said that ...意为“据说”,其中It是形式主语,真正的主语是由that引导的从句。
60.greater 考查形容词比较级。由than可知,此处应用比较级形式,故填greater。
61.has been 考查现在完成时。由“Since the late 1960s”可知,此处应用现在完成时,故填has been。
62.physicists 考查名词。设空处作主语,表示“物理学家”,又因谓语动词为复数形式,故填physicists。
63.to find 考查不定式作宾语的用法。be unable to do sth意为“没有能力做某事”。
64.or 考查连词。由句意可知,an object with nearly-infinite density与something else之间是选择关系,故填or。
65.scientific 考查形容词作定语的用法。设空处作定语修饰methods,表示“科学的”,故填scientific。

It was an Art lesson.Rachel sat at the desk watching her classmates busy preparing the water jars and paints.She understood why Mrs Weston asked her to sit down and got Lisa to fetch everything for her.It was always a disaster when Rachel tried to do Art!
Rachel sighed and reached out to dip her brush in some black paint and—oh,no! She knocked over the jar.The water spread across the desk and drowned the paper.Lisa called Mrs Weston to see what Rachel had done.Rachel went red in the face.She jumped to her feet to get a cloth.Her chair fell over backwards.She turned round and her paintbrush caught Lisa across the face,giving her a black moustache.Lisa was so surprised that she fell back against a wire bookstand.It came crashing down and the books went all over the floor.
How clumsy! Rachel thought as she went home on the bus.The bus stopped outside her house.She jumped up and her elbow (肘部) knocked a woman’s hat right over her eyes.Oh,no! Rachel said sorry,got off and ran indoors.Mum wasn’t in the kitchen but lay in bed as she caught an awful cold.Rachel offered to make a cup of tea but Mum would rather wait for Dad.Rachel sighed.She understood Mum was afraid she would spill (溅出) it.
“But would you go to Mrs Willow for some cold cure?” asked Mum.Rachel turned to the door at once.“But Rachel,Mrs Willow’s house is full of beautiful things,so if she asks you to come in,you’d better say no.” Rachel sighed and ran out.?
Mrs Willow was an old lady with white hair and sharp blue eyes living in an old house.She opened the door and invited her in.Rachel said why she came and that she preferred to wait outside remembering her mother’s warning.Mrs Willow insisted Rachel come inside.Rachel took a deep breath and stepped in.She looked round Mrs Willow’s sitting room and saw at once why Mum had been worried.?

参考范文
Paragraph 1:
There were beautiful things everywhere—pretty china figures and delicate vases.All the treasures seemed to boast a long history and thus priceless.“Wow,it is really a land of wonder.” Rachel couldn’t help admiring the elegance of the china figures and vases.Mom’s words echoing in her mind,curiosity still got the upper hand.She reached for one of them,but unfortunately,the vase slipped off her hand and lay in pieces on the floor.Her heart missing a beat,she felt terribly worried.?
Paragraph 2:
With a smile,Mrs Willow comforted her,saying it had been broken before.Seeing Mrs Willow’s sharp blue eyes filled with warmth and affection,Rachel felt extremely regretful for her clumsy behavior.“If I had been more careful,the disaster wouldn’t have happened.” Rachel knew what Mrs Willow said might be an excuse to relieve her uneasiness and embarrassment.She made a resolution in her heart that from the day on she would never be so careless and swore to be a kind and thoughtful person like Mrs Willow.?

Astronaut Mae Jemison was the first African-American woman to travel in space.She also earned degrees in medicine,chemical engineering and African-American studies.Now,at age 60,Jemison is a professor at Cornell University and head of the 100-Year Starship project.
At the recent Black Futures Month Celebration at the Children’s Museum of Manhattan,children learned about Jemison and her impact on science.Kids also created their own rockets out of paper,a small plastic cup,and a bottle cap.The rockets were held together by tape and glue.They were modeled after Endeavour,the ship Jemison travelled on in space.
“I wanted to come to this event because I thought it would be fun to make rocket ships,since I am interested in space,” said Logan,10,of Middletown,New York.He also enjoyed learning about Jemison and her accomplishments.“People shouldn’t be judged by the color of their skin,” Logan added.“They should be judged by who they are on the inside.”
The museum honored other African-American pioneers as well,including Martin Luther King,Jr.Children created mosaics of King,and also wrote books about him and his wife,Coretta Scott King.The museum focused on African-American leaders from the past,as well as those who are still alive today.
The Children’s Museum of Manhattan celebrates diversity in its exhibitions.On its first floor is an exhibit about the lives and accomplishments of Muslims from various countries,including America.There’s also an exhibit called Hello From Japan,which teaches kids about present-day life in Japan,and shows kids some traditions that exist in Japan.Nevertheless,February is a special time for the museum to celebrate the contributions of African Americans.
“We often learn about other cultures from other countries,but the African-American culture is here in the United States,so it plays a somewhat larger role in our society,” Seibert said.“Black History Month provides a chance to learn and appreciate people who stood up for black rights,and rights in general.”

UNIT 4 SPACE EXPLORATION
China to launch Chang’e-5 lunar probe in 2020
China plans to launch① the Chang’e-5 probe in 2020 to bring moon samples back to Earth,according to Wu Weiren,chief designer of China’s lunar exploration program.
The Long March-5 carrier rocket,China’s current largest launch vehicle,will be used to send the probe into space,Wu,also an academician(院士) of the Chinese Academy of Engineering,said at the first China Space Science Assembly,which opened Saturday in Xiamen,East China’s Fujian Province.
The second Long March-5 rocket was launched from the Wenchang Space Launch Center in the southern province of Hainan on July 2,2017,but a malfunction(运转失灵) happened less than six minutes after its liftoff.
China’s space engineers have spent over two years looking for the cause of the malfunction.The third Long March-5 rocket is being transported② to the Wenchang Space Launch Center for a new flight,according to Wu.The success of the flight will be the key for China’s future space missions including the Chang’e-5 probe.
Wu said the Chang’e-5 probe includes a lander,an orbiter,an ascender and a returner.The key of the mission will be lunar sample collection,takeoff from the moon,rendezvous and docking on lunar orbit and high-speed reentry into Earth’s atmosphere③.
China’s current lunar program includes three phases:orbiting,landing,and returning.The first two phases have been accomplished④,and the next step is to launch the Chang’e-5 probe to collect 2kg of moon samples and bring them back to the earth.
China is also drawing up the plan for the fourth phase of the lunar exploration program.
In the fourth phase of the program,China will conduct scientific detection(探测) in the south polar region of the moon by mainly using high intelligent⑤ robots,and realise long-term exploration in the complicated lunar environment,Wu said.?

Environmental experts warn that our planet is drowning in plastic.
The world’s cities produce 2 billion tons of trash every year.By the year 2050 that number is expected to rise to 3 billion tons.The World Bank estimates that the largest amount of trash today,about 44 percent,is plastic.But we often have to buy packaged goods.And often that packaging is made of plastic.
Now,that may be changing.A new environmentally-friendly shopping model was recently launched at the World Economic Forum in Davos,Switzerland.This shopping model,called Loop,aims to replace throwaway containers with reusable ones.
Loop is the idea of Terra Cycle,an American-based recycling company.Its chief,Tom Szaky,told the Associated Press(AP)that “removing plastics from the ocean is not enough.” He said the point is to get away from single-use packages.Szaky said that Loop is the future of shopping.But it comes from an idea of the past.
He compared it to the “milkman model” of the 1950s in the United States.Back then,someone brought milk to your doorstep in glass bottles and then left with empty bottles.These could be cleaned and used again.The result is zero-waste.
Jennifer Morgan from the environmental non-profit organisation Greenpeace also joined in the discussion about Loop at Davos.She said that “Greenpeace welcomes the aim of the Loop Alliance to move away from throwaway culture and disposability.”But Morgan questioned whether companies worldwide are ready to change their business models.
Loop is set to launch later this year in three eastern U.S.states,and also in Paris,France and some of the surrounding area.Then Loop plans to expand to the U.S.West Coast,Toronto,Canada and Britain by the end of this year or 2020.

4.What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?
A.Provide background information.
B.Advocate zero-waste lifestyle.
C.Explain the reason for trash.
D.Introduce a new topic.
答案A
解析目的意图题。根据第二段的描述可知,这里主要讲目前世界上每年就会产生20亿吨垃圾,这其中占比最多的就是塑料垃圾。这为下文提出解决这一问题的新方式提供了相关的背景信息和内容,故A项正确。B、D两项在第二段中并未提到,C项“解释垃圾产生的原因”在本段中也未涉及。
5.Where does the idea “Loop” come from?
A.The World Economic Forum.
B.Demand of some companies.
C.Zero-waste model.
D.The milkman model.
答案D
解析细节理解题。根据第五段首句“He compared it to the ‘milkman model’ of the 1950s in the United States.”可知,这一想法来源于milkman model,故D项正确。
6.Which countries is Loop expected to expand to by 2020?
A.United States and Switzerland.
B.Switzerland and Britain.
C.Canada and Britain.
D.France and Canada.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Then Loop plans to expand to the U.S.West Coast,Toronto,Canada and Britain by the end of this year or 2020.”可知,这一新的降低塑料垃圾的购物方式到年底或者2020年会延伸至英国和加拿大,故C项正确。
7.What is the text mainly about?
A.A new shopping model.
B.The development of the future city.
C.The world’s environmental issue.
D.The concerns of future shopping.
答案A
解析主旨大意题。本文主要讲述美国一家公司建议使用一种新的购物方式以降低塑料污染的相关内容,故A项正确。

My name is Charlotte Kelly,11,in fifth grade in Virginia Beach,Virginia.My dad is astronaut Scott Kelly.He is on a yearlong mission in space aboard the International Space Station.As a special TFK Kid reporter,I will tell what it is like to have a dad in space.
On March 24,2015,I headed to Baikonur,Kazakhstan,with my sister,Samantha,and family friends.It would be my last opportunity to see my dad before he blasted off for the International Space Station.This is my dad’s fourth time in space but my first time at a Russian launch.Three days before the launch,I got to see the Russian rocket my dad would travel on emerge from the hangar(飞机库).The air was a bitter-cold -18°F.
I wasn’t quite sure how I would feel about seeing my dad sitting on top of a rocket,getting ready to blast off into space for an entire year.I had heard that it would be a roller coaster of emotions.The truth is,that was my dad sitting in that tiny capsule,fixed atop a giant rocket in the middle of a desert in Biakonur! It was terrifying.
Yet as the rocket launched in the far distance,it lit up the desert with such beauty.It was hard not to think of my dad while looking at the astonishing brilliance of lights and feeling the great vibrations piercing(刺穿) my body.This was him—leaving Earth.I almost didn’t realise that my sister was squeezing my hand about 10 seconds into the launch.I am still not quite sure how to describe how I felt.I was happy and excited for my dad but sad to see him go,knowing he would be away for such a long time.I was fascinated by the beauty and wonder of it all.
【语篇解读】凯丽是TFK Kid的特约小记者,她的爸爸要到国际空间站工作一年。文章中讲述了她和家人一起到俄罗斯发射场观看爸爸进入太空的情景。
1.Why did Kelly go to Baikonur on March 24?
A.Because her father was about to flying into space.
B.Because she wanted to see the Russian rocket.
C.Because she was interested in space.
D.Because she wanted to experience flying herself.
答案A
解析细节理解题。根据第二段的第一句可知,凯丽、姐姐和朋友们在爸爸飞往国际空间站之前去看望他,由此可知,A项正确。B项“她想看俄罗斯的火箭”,C项“她对太空感兴趣”,D项“她自己想体验一下飞行”,都与原文不符。
2.When Kelly saw her father sitting in the tiny capsule, .?
A.she felt very excited
B.she was proud of him
C.she was very scared
D.she felt very content
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据第三段中的“that was my dad sitting in that tiny capsule”和“It was terrifying.”可知,凯丽看到爸爸坐在小小的火箭发射舱内,感到非常恐惧,由此可知,C项为正确答案。
3.Why did Kelly feel sad with the rocket blasting off?
A.She was worried about her dad’s safety.
B.She felt the great vibrations piercing her body.
C.Her sister squeezed her hand about 10 minutes.
D.She would not see her dad for a whole year.
答案D
解析推理判断题。根据最后一段的倒数第二句“...but sad to see him go,knowing he would be away for such a long time.”以及上文的“getting ready to blast off into space for an entire year”可知,她爸爸要在国际空间站工作一年,这是她伤心的原因。A项在文中没提到,B、C两项是文章的细节,但是不是她伤心的原因。
4.What did the author think while looking at the astonishing brilliance of lights?
A.Her father. B.The moon.
C.The rocket. D.The desert.
答案A
解析细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“It was hard not to think of my dad while looking at the astonishing brilliance of lights”可知,当时作者想到的是自己的爸爸。

Dear Tom,
How are you?I’m glad to tell you that there will be a lecture so I am writing to invite you to my school to attend it.Let me introduce it to you.
The lecture is given by a famous professor named Mr Zhang next weekend in our school hall.The content of the lecture is about “black hole”,which is a hot topic among people recently.So Professor Zhang is going to tell us what caused the black hole and what effect it will result in on the whole world.In order to attend the lecture you are supposed to make full preparations for it.For example you’d better have a wide range of knowledge such as geography,physics and astronomy.
I’m looking forward to your early reply.Welcome to my school.I’ll meet you at the school gate.
Yours,

Ⅵ.概要写作
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
We already know that the underwater world is anything but silent.It is full of natural sounds produced by animals and by the motion of the atmosphere and water.But today’s researchers are increasingly concerned about the man-made noises under the water.They are confusing-and even killing-fish,whales and other marine animals.
Although hearing is important to all animals,the special qualities of the undersea world emphasize the use of sound.Underwater sound allows marine animals to gather information and communicate at great distances and from all directions.Loud underwater noises can cause damage to their hearing.And nowadays it’s becoming too much for marine wildlife.Evidence shows that whales will swim hundreds of miles,rapidly change their depth,and even beach themselves to get away from the sounds of sonar.
You might think lower noises,typically caused by shipping or construction,do not pose a threat to marine animals.In fact,while they may not kill the animals directly,they can disturb their ability to locate food,find mates and avoid predators (掠食动物).Scientists looked at the effects of noise from small motorboats on coral-reef fish at the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.In the lab,the fish had been trained to recognise the smell of three common predators as a threat.Some fish were trained in the presence of boat noise,while the others had training with the natural sounds of the ocean.It turned out that the first group showed no fright reactions when exposed to the predator.However,the other group was scared.And under the influence of underwater noise on this group,only 20 percent of fish survived,compared to almost 70 percent of unexposed fish.
Humans rely on the ocean for its natural resources and biodiversity.The ocean also plays an important role in regulating(调节)temperatures,As Cousteau said,“For most of history,man has had to fight nature to survive;in this century he is beginning to realise that,in order to survive,he must protect it.”

参考范文
Although underwater world is not silent,man-made sound is doing great harm to marine animal.(要点1) Important as underwater sound is to animals there,loud noises in the sea threatens their normal life.(要点2) According to scientists’ research,the survival rate of fish drops sharply under the influence of noise,whether loud or not.(要点3) Thus,with the benefits of ocean to the environment and temperature,people must protect it rather than fight it.(要点4) (71词)
