Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history.
Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers, for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.
Why should people care? Because we need animals. And because once they are gone, there will never be any more.
Animals are more than beautiful or interesting or a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems.
For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks(鹰), the farmers’ stores of corn and grain were destroyed by mice. Why？Because hawks eat mice．With no hawks to keep down their numbers, the mice multiplied quickly.
Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger.
Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws forbid the killing of any animal or plant on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.
What is the best title for the passage?
A.Save the Animals B. Useful Animals
C.Laws for Animals D. Animals in Danger
2. Animals are important to us mainly because ________.
A. they give us a source of food
B. they are beautiful and lovely
C. they keep the balance of nature
D. they give us a lot of pleasure
3. What is the meaning of the underlined word “multiplied”in the passage?
A. Became more. B. Became less.
C. Turned black. D. Ate food.
4. We can infer from the passage that ________.
A. people have known the importance of animal protection since a long time ago
B. animals play an important role in people’s life
C. the number of hawks is on the decrease
D. many countries passed laws forbidding the killing of any animal
B
More than two thirds of the world's polar bears will be wiped out by 2050, according to a shocking new study. By then, scientists say, global warming will have melted 42 percent of the Arctic sea ice. By 2100, only a very few of these important creatures will be left.
The report has been produced by the US Geological Survey. The scientists have publicized their findings in the hope of influencing US Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne, who has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.
Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals, which are their main food.Without enough ice, polar bears would be forced to go onto the land, where they are poorly skilled hunters, and would be unlikely to adapt to the life on the land in time. Experts say few little bears would survive and the stress could make many females unable to get pregnant.
The team of American and Canadian scientists spent six months studying bears, on the ground, from spotter planes and in the lab, using computer models. Some team members fear the result is even worse for the bears than what their report says. They say the Arctic is warming faster than anywhere in the world and much faster than their computer had been forecasting. Satellite observations have showed that the ice has decreased to an all?time low.
However, not everyone in the scientific community believes that global warming is happening on such an alarming scale. Another investigation has found that polar bears are still being hunted by wealthy “sportsmen” who want their skins and heads. At least ten international companies offer bear?hunting trips.
What do we know about Dirk Kempthorne according to the passage?
He is an animal scientist.
He is a protector of animals working for the US government.
He was asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.
He offered to put polar bears on the endangered species list.
Why will polar bears die out if there is not enough sea ice?
A. Because polar bears can't catch enough food without ice.
B. Because polar bears eat ice when they feel thirsty.
C. Because polar bears will be easily found by hunters without ice.
D. Because most female bears are used to giving birth under ice.
7. What is this passage mainly about?
A. Global warming makes the whole world different.
B. Human beings are responsible for the endangered species.
C. Most of the polar bears will be wiped out by the end of this century.
D. Scientists have found that most animals in the Arctic will die out by the end of this century.

I'm an animal lover. A few weeks ago, while going home from work, I saw an old dog lain on the roadside. I got closer to find that it was there. I felt shocked when I find it was unable to move. Someone told me that it was hit by the motorcycle. I decided to take it home and look after it careful. Every day I gave it enough food or water before I went to work. And as soon as I came back home after work, I would play it.

Passenger pigeons (旅鸽) were the most common birds in all of North America in the 1800s. It was common to see large groups of passenger pigeons — groups that made a sound like a storm. But today, they are extinct because of human behavior. Now, some scientists want to bring passenger pigeons back to life by using new technology and scientific ideas. They call this process de?extinction.
De?extinction has not happened yet. It is still just an idea. The process of de?extinction is not easy. First, scientists must collect DNA from the bodies of extinct animals. Then they will put it in the eggs of similar animal species. When these animals become adults, they will have babies. And these baby animals will have the DNA of the extinct animals.
Scientists believe it is possible to bring back passenger pigeons and many other animals. However, not everyone thinks this is a good idea.
Stuart Primm is the world's leading expert on modern animal extinction. He believes that bringing extinct animals back to life is bad for the earth. On one hand, these animals no longer have a safe place to live. On the other hand, they could cause other animals to die.
Many other scientists do not agree with Stuart Primm. Stuart Brand, a writer and scientist, is one of them. He believes de?extinction is good for many reasons.
"The current generation (当代) of children will experience the return of some unusual animals in their lifetime. It may be part of what defines their generation and their attitude to the natural world. They will take their parents to zoos to see the growing populations of passenger pigeons, and maybe even dodo birds. This will provide a good deal of money for zoos busy with extinct species restoration (恢复). Humans killed off a lot of species over the last 10,000 years. So, it's right to bring some back to life," he said.
1.In the 19th century, passenger pigeons ________.
A.were common sightings
B.suffered a lot from storms
C.lived mainly in North America
D.were the largest in American history
2. What do we know about de?extinction?
A.It will change the DNA of the extinct animals.
B.It was first used in passenger pigeons.
C.It is difficult to carry out.
D.It proved to be useful.
3. Why is Stuart Primm against bringing back extinct animals?
A.They will die very soon. B.They will create other problems.
C.They will do great harm to humans. D.They will replace the similar species.
4. How does Stuart Brand feel about de?extinction?
A.Wrong. B.Difficult. C.Important. D.Wasteful.

三、阅读理解
A
【解题导语】 本文是一篇关于动物保护的说明文。目前，世界范围内动物的数量正在不断下降，保护动物刻不容缓。保护动物不仅是为动物，也是为我们人类自己的生存考虑。幸运的是，现在有的国家已经开始行动，例如成立保护组织或制定法律等对动物进行有效的保护。
1.A 解析：标题归纳题。文章提到动物面临的生存现状、保护动物的必要性以及目前一些国家对野生动物所采取的保护性措施等都体现了保护动物的主题，故文章标题应是“保护动物”。
2.C 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的Animals are more than．．．in the balance of nature．可知，每一种动物的存在都是有道理的，都是为了维持自然界的平衡。
3.A 解析：词义猜测题。由画线词所在的段落可以看出，当鹰的数量因人类的捕杀而减少时，粮食受老鼠的毁坏会加重。没有鹰对老鼠的捕杀，老鼠的数量自然是增长很快，即“变得更多”。
4.B 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段和第四段的描述可知，此前人们对于动物的保护并不关注，当然也并未意识到保护动物的重要性，故可排除A项。通过对文章第四段的理解可知动物在人们的生活中起着重要作用，故B项正确。文中提到鹰的数量由于人类的捕杀而减少，但并非现在的情况，故可排除C项。D项中提到许多国家制定了法律来禁止对一切动物的捕杀，忽略了文中on the danger list这个说法，故该项是不对的。

【解析】这是一篇说明文。本文说的是由于全球变暖，北极熊有可能在这个世纪末就要灭绝了。
5.C细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的“...US Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne，who has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.”可知， Dirk Kempthorne被要求把北极熊列入美国濒危物种名单，故选C。
6.A推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals，which are their main food.”可知，如果没有足够的海冰北极熊会濒危灭绝是因为北极熊没有冰就失去了猎捕海豹的平台，就抓不到足够的食物，故选A。
7.C主旨大意题。本文第一段点明了主题：北极熊有可能在这个世纪末就要灭绝了。下文是具体说明和依据，故选C。

Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history.
Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers, for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.
Why should people care? Because we need animals. And because once they are gone, there will never be any more.
Animals are more than beautiful or interesting or a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems.
For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks(鹰), the farmers’ stores of corn and grain were destroyed by mice. Why？Because hawks eat mice．With no hawks to keep down their numbers, the mice multiplied quickly.
Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger.
Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws forbid the killing of any animal or plant on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.
What is the best title for the passage?
A.Save the Animals B. Useful Animals
C.Laws for Animals D. Animals in Danger
2. Animals are important to us mainly because ________.
A. they give us a source of food
B. they are beautiful and lovely
C. they keep the balance of nature
D. they give us a lot of pleasure
3. What is the meaning of the underlined word “multiplied”in the passage?
A. Became more. B. Became less.
C. Turned black. D. Ate food.
4. We can infer from the passage that ________.
A. people have known the importance of animal protection since a long time ago
B. animals play an important role in people’s life
C. the number of hawks is on the decrease
D. many countries passed laws forbidding the killing of any animal

More than two thirds of the world's polar bears will be wiped out by 2050, according to a shocking new study. By then, scientists say, global warming will have melted 42 percent of the Arctic sea ice. By 2100, only a very few of these important creatures will be left.
The report has been produced by the US Geological Survey. The scientists have publicized their findings in the hope of influencing US Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne, who has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.
Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals, which are their main food.Without enough ice, polar bears would be forced to go onto the land, where they are poorly skilled hunters, and would be unlikely to adapt to the life on the land in time. Experts say few little bears would survive and the stress could make many females unable to get pregnant.
The team of American and Canadian scientists spent six months studying bears, on the ground, from spotter planes and in the lab, using computer models. Some team members fear the result is even worse for the bears than what their report says. They say the Arctic is warming faster than anywhere in the world and much faster than their computer had been forecasting. Satellite observations have showed that the ice has decreased to an all?time low.
However, not everyone in the scientific community believes that global warming is happening on such an alarming scale. Another investigation has found that polar bears are still being hunted by wealthy “sportsmen” who want their skins and heads. At least ten international companies offer bear?hunting trips.
What do we know about Dirk Kempthorne according to the passage?
He is an animal scientist.
He is a protector of animals working for the US government.
He was asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.
He offered to put polar bears on the endangered species list.
Why will polar bears die out if there is not enough sea ice?
A. Because polar bears can't catch enough food without ice.
B. Because polar bears eat ice when they feel thirsty.
C. Because polar bears will be easily found by hunters without ice.
D. Because most female bears are used to giving birth under ice.
7. What is this passage mainly about?
A. Global warming makes the whole world different.
B. Human beings are responsible for the endangered species.
C. Most of the polar bears will be wiped out by the end of this century.
D. Scientists have found that most animals in the Arctic will die out by the end of this century.

Passenger pigeons (旅鸽) were the most common birds in all of North America in the 1800s. It was common to see large groups of passenger pigeons — groups that made a sound like a storm. But today, they are extinct because of human behavior. Now, some scientists want to bring passenger pigeons back to life by using new technology and scientific ideas. They call this process de?extinction.
De?extinction has not happened yet. It is still just an idea. The process of de?extinction is not easy. First, scientists must collect DNA from the bodies of extinct animals. Then they will put it in the eggs of similar animal species. When these animals become adults, they will have babies. And these baby animals will have the DNA of the extinct animals.
Scientists believe it is possible to bring back passenger pigeons and many other animals. However, not everyone thinks this is a good idea.
Stuart Primm is the world's leading expert on modern animal extinction. He believes that bringing extinct animals back to life is bad for the earth. On one hand, these animals no longer have a safe place to live. On the other hand, they could cause other animals to die.
Many other scientists do not agree with Stuart Primm. Stuart Brand, a writer and scientist, is one of them. He believes de?extinction is good for many reasons.
"The current generation (当代) of children will experience the return of some unusual animals in their lifetime. It may be part of what defines their generation and their attitude to the natural world. They will take their parents to zoos to see the growing populations of passenger pigeons, and maybe even dodo birds. This will provide a good deal of money for zoos busy with extinct species restoration (恢复). Humans killed off a lot of species over the last 10,000 years. So, it's right to bring some back to life," he said.
1.In the 19th century, passenger pigeons ________.
A.were common sightings
B.suffered a lot from storms
C.lived mainly in North America
D.were the largest in American history
2. What do we know about de?extinction?
A.It will change the DNA of the extinct animals.
B.It was first used in passenger pigeons.
C.It is difficult to carry out.
D.It proved to be useful.
3. Why is Stuart Primm against bringing back extinct animals?
A.They will die very soon. B.They will create other problems.
C.They will do great harm to humans. D.They will replace the similar species.
4. How does Stuart Brand feel about de?extinction?
A.Wrong. B.Difficult. C.Important. D.Wasteful.

三、阅读理解
A
【解题导语】 本文是一篇关于动物保护的说明文。目前，世界范围内动物的数量正在不断下降，保护动物刻不容缓。保护动物不仅是为动物，也是为我们人类自己的生存考虑。幸运的是，现在有的国家已经开始行动，例如成立保护组织或制定法律等对动物进行有效的保护。
1.A 解析：标题归纳题。文章提到动物面临的生存现状、保护动物的必要性以及目前一些国家对野生动物所采取的保护性措施等都体现了保护动物的主题，故文章标题应是“保护动物”。
2.C 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的Animals are more than．．．in the balance of nature．可知，每一种动物的存在都是有道理的，都是为了维持自然界的平衡。
3.A 解析：词义猜测题。由画线词所在的段落可以看出，当鹰的数量因人类的捕杀而减少时，粮食受老鼠的毁坏会加重。没有鹰对老鼠的捕杀，老鼠的数量自然是增长很快，即“变得更多”。
4.B 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段和第四段的描述可知，此前人们对于动物的保护并不关注，当然也并未意识到保护动物的重要性，故可排除A项。通过对文章第四段的理解可知动物在人们的生活中起着重要作用，故B项正确。文中提到鹰的数量由于人类的捕杀而减少，但并非现在的情况，故可排除C项。D项中提到许多国家制定了法律来禁止对一切动物的捕杀，忽略了文中on the danger list这个说法，故该项是不对的。
B
【解析】这是一篇说明文。本文说的是由于全球变暖，北极熊有可能在这个世纪末就要灭绝了。
5.C细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的“...US Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne，who has been asked to put polar bears on the US endangered species list.”可知， Dirk Kempthorne被要求把北极熊列入美国濒危物种名单，故选C。
6.A推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Polar bears depend on floating sea ice as a platform for hunting seals，which are their main food.”可知，如果没有足够的海冰北极熊会濒危灭绝是因为北极熊没有冰就失去了猎捕海豹的平台，就抓不到足够的食物，故选A。
7.C主旨大意题。本文第一段点明了主题：北极熊有可能在这个世纪末就要灭绝了。下文是具体说明和依据，故选C。
阅读七选五
1. F 解析 由空格前面的句子“Many volunteers join organizations like these and work for the environment.”可知，很多志愿者都加入这样的组织，为环境服务，你也可以找到一些像这样的组织并且加入进去，故选F。
2. E 解析 由后文中的“Baby seals(海豹) are hunted for their skin，as it is used to make expensive coats.”可知，人们猎杀海豹，用它们的皮制作昂贵的大衣。因此作者建议我们拒绝购买皮毛大衣和用稀有动物制成的药，故选E。
3.A 解析 由空格后面的句子“You can write a heartfelt and logical letter to the government，stating your ideas about this problem and how it can be solved.”可知，作者建议我们写一封真诚而富有逻辑的信给政府部门，表达我们对这个问题的观点，并提出如何解决这个问题的建议，也就是要说出我们的心声，故选A。
4. C 解析 由空格前的内容可知，回收和循环利用将会减少生产产品时对原材料的需求。而这样做将会减少对木材的需求，而且野生动物们的家也不会被破坏，故选C。
5.G 解析 由空格前面的句子“Governments should create more safe zones and national parks for wild animals.”可知，作者呼吁政府为野生动物建立更多的保护区和国家公园，在那里动物可以自由走动，不用担心被猎杀，故选G。
四、短文填空
amazing；are looked；Sadly；giving；protection；a；to improve；that/which；to；that 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了泰国与大象一起工作的志愿活动。
（1）考查形容词。句意：理由很充分，这些神奇的生物体型巨大，可爱，而且非常聪明。设空处作定语修饰creatures，表示“令人惊异的”，故填amazing。
（2）考查时态语态。由Often可知，此处描述的是一般情况，应用一般现在时，且elephants与look on之间是被动关系，故填are looked。

（4）考查非谓语动词。设空处作介词into的宾语，故填giving。

（7）考查非谓语动词。在那里工作的目的是改善大象的生活。不定式作目的状语，故填to improve。
（8）考查定语从句。设空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰places，且在从句中作主语，故填that/which。
（9）考查介词。pay attention to...固定短语，“把注意力放在……上”。故填to。
（10）考查宾语从句。设空处引导宾语从句，作careful的宾语，因从句结构和意义均完整，故填that。考点：本题考点涉及形容词，时态语态，副词，非谓语动词，名词，冠词，定语从句，介词以及宾语从句等多个知识点的考查，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。

2.考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“The process of de?extinction is not easy.”以及接下来具体介绍灭绝物种复活的复杂过程可知，复活灭绝物种绝非易事。故选C。
3.考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“He believes that bringing extinct animals back to life is bad for the earth... these animals no longer have a safe place to live.”和“they could cause other animals to die”可知，Stuart Primm反对灭绝物种复活是因为他认为这些复活的动物会造成一些其他的问题。故选B。
4.考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的“He believes de?extinction is good for many reasons.”以及Stuart Brand在最后一段具体陈述灭绝物种复活的好处可知，他认为复活灭绝物种很重要。故选C。
