二、能力素养提升练
Ⅳ.阅读理解
Rhinos once lived throughout Eurasia and Africa but now are only found in very small parts of Asia and Africa.There are many false beliefs that a rhino horn can cure medical problems.Every year in Africa,hundreds of rhinos are killed for their horns.The horn is usually cut so deep that the rhino is left to bleed to death.So,environmentalists cut off the rhino horn,leaving behind just a small amount to prevent the animal being killed for the horn.However,many hunters will kill a rhino for that small remaining stump.Very soon,rhinos are dying out.But why should we care about this Rhinos are far away from us.
The World Wildlife Fund(WWF) argues that we should set aside reserves to protect rhinos,as well as animals and plants that live in the same areas.Rhinos are one of the most popular animals that people go to Africa to see.It is the same with pandas in China.Many people especially visit China to see the pandas,which is good for the economy of these areas.In addition,they have increased the status of China in the world as people are impressed with the work that the Chinese are doing to save their wildlife.
But beyond these practical and economic reasons that benefit humans,there is another argument for saving animals from extinction.This argument is based on the animals themselves—every animal,however small or seemingly insignificant,is interesting,unique and beautiful in its own way.They are deserving protection,even if it means that humans lose areas in which to live and farm.
However,there is a new way of thinking about protection.That is,we can’t take care of ourselves without also protecting nature.In specific situations we might choose to favor man and,in others,nature,but overall,we have to protect both.Because it’s not just a matter of the direct goods that ecosystems offer us.Instead,it’s about seeing the needs of human society and wild ecosystems as inseparable.This view is called “nature and people”.
1.What does the first paragraph serve as
A.An introduction. B.A comment.
C.An explanation. D.An example.
2.What can we infer from the new way of thinking about protection
A.We choose to live in harmony with nature.
B.We would like to protect significant creatures.
C.We prefer to favor man rather than protect nature.
D.We are more likely to value the direct goods from nature.
3.Which of the following is the main point of the passage
A.The ways that environmentalists set up nature reserves.
B.The profit that environmentalists gain from protecting animals.
C.The action that environmentalists take to save wildlife.
D.The reason why environmentalists save wildlife.
Ⅴ.七选五
As a well-known Chinese saying goes,“A journey of one thousand miles begins with a single step.”  1  They turned off all lights and electronics from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m.local time.
Earth Hour is put forward by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).On March 31,2007,the organization encouraged the citizens in Sydney to switch off all lights and turn off all non-essential devices for one hour.Over 2 million households and 2,100 companies answered the call.This small action helped save 10% of the electricity in a regular evening hour. 2 
Besides making an immediate difference,the WWF says the worldwide participation shows people’s desire to do their share to reverse (逆转) climate change. 3  According to the WWF,simple actions such as turning off unnecessary lights or choosing wood pencils over plastic ones can also help reverse climate change.
 4  In 2008,over 50 million people in over 5,000 cities worldwide observed the event,and the numbers have only grown since.Today,Earth Hour is celebrated in over 180 countries.
Are you not sure what to do without your phone or television for a whole hour WWF suggests organizing a candlelight dinner for your family or,even better,a picnic under the stars. 5  Remember that climate change can be reversed if we all help,so be sure to do your part!
A.Your participation never counts.
B.Or how about a late-night hike or a bike ride
C.There is no doubt that their efforts have paid off.
D.Gradually,more people joined the Earth Hour movement.
E.It’s the biggest voluntary environmental movement globally.
F.And it shows small lifestyle changes can make a big difference as well.
G.On March 27,2021,millions of people worldwide took the first step towards reversing climate change.

Ⅳ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了环保人士通过割掉犀牛角的一部分,来保护犀牛不被猎杀,从中引出保护野生动物免于灭绝的原因以及一种关于保护的新思路。
1.A 推理判断题。根据第一段“Rhinos once lived... Rhinos are far away from us.”可推知,第一段的作用是引入文章主题。
2.A 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However,there is a new way of thinking about protection...This view is called ‘nature and people’.”可推知,我们可以从新的保护思维方式中推断出我们选择与自然和谐相处。
3.D 主旨大意题。文章主要说明了环保人士通过割掉犀牛角的一部分,来保护犀牛不被猎杀,从中引出保护野生动物免于灭绝的原因以及一种关于保护的新思路。由此可知,文章的主题是环保主义者保护野生动物的原因。
Ⅴ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。“地球一小时”是世界自然基金会为应对全球气候变化而提出的一项倡议。本文主要介绍了该活动的由来、发展及影响。
1.G 根据上文“As a well-known Chinese saying goes,‘A journey of one thousand miles begins with a single step.’”和下文“They turned off all lights and electronics from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m.local time.”可知,G项引起下文,符合语境。G项中的“millions of people”和下文的“they”对应,G项中的“the first step”与空前一句的“a single step”对应。故选G项。
2.C 根据上文“This small action helped save 10% of the electricity in a regular evening hour.”可知,这个活动是取得成效的。C项符合语境,是对上文的总结。故选C项。
3.F 根据下文“According to the WWF,simple actions such as turning off unnecessary lights or choosing wood pencils over plastic ones can also help reverse climate change.”可知,此处引用世界自然基金会的观点来具体说明,一些简单的行动有助于扭转气候变化。由此可知,空处应该引起下文,说明一些生活方式的小变化都是有用的。F项符合语境。F项中的“small lifestyle changes”和下文中的“turning off unnecessary lights”“choosing wood pencils over plastic ones”对应。故选F项。
4.D 空处为段落主题句。根据下文“In 2008,over 50 million people in over 5,000 cities worldwide observed the event,and the numbers have only grown since.”可知,本段主要说明参加“地球一小时”活动的人数不断增加。D项符合语境。故选D项。
5.B 根据上文“WWF suggests organizing a candlelight dinner for your family or,even better,a picnic under the stars.”可知,上文主要介绍了人们在参与“地球一小时”活动时可以做的事情。空处承接上文,继续列举“地球一小时”活动期间可做的事情。B项符合语境。故选B项。
Ⅵ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了人们为拯救濒危野生动物白枕鹤所做的努力。
1.D 由下文列举的濒临灭绝的野生动物白枕鹤的例子可知,此处讲每天都有物种在消失(disappear),故选D项。grow“增长”;migrate“迁徙”;compete “竞争”。
2.B 由下文提到的 Chris 和 Tim 为拯救白枕鹤所做的努力可知,科学家们一直在尽最大努力拯救(save)这些物种免于灭绝。save sb./sth.from doing sth.“拯救某人/某物免于做某事”,是固定搭配。ban sb.from doing sth.“禁止某人做某事”;split“分裂,使分开”;remove“移开,拿开”。
3.C 由第四段中的“artificial breeding and natural reproduction”可知,此处表示两位饲养员帮助濒危的白枕鹤繁殖(reproduction)。abortion“人工流产”;recreation“娱乐,消遣”;administration“管理,施行”。
4.A 由下文的叙述可知,Chris 和 Tim 在Emma 来到动物园之后一直在照顾它。in one’s care = in the care of sb.“在某人的照顾下”,是固定搭配。另外,下文中的human caretakers也给出了提示。
5.C 由下文中的“become deeply attached to humans”可知,它是由人类饲养(raise)长大的。
6.B 由空格后“尽管它在那里过得很愉快”可知,“它是由人类饲养长大的”这一事实导致了意想不到的后果(consequence)。bonus“奖金”;victory“胜利”;sacrifice“牺牲”。
7.A 后面提到Emma变得非常依恋人类,由此可知,它从来不(never)把自己看作是一只鹤。
8.B 既然Emma从来不把自己看作是一只鹤,那么它会拒绝(refuse)与雄鹤一起生活。
9.D Emma非常依恋人类,它从来不把自己看作是一只鹤,拒绝与雄鹤一起生活,甚至因为杀死一些雄鹤而出了名。have a reputation for“有……的名声”,是固定搭配。
10.D 根据上文内容可知,误把自己当成了人类中的一员的Emma,拒绝与雄白枕鹤生活在一起,甚至杀死雄白枕鹤,自然,她不可能当妈妈,生育后代。
11.A 人工繁殖和自然繁殖是两种繁殖方式,此处指动物饲养员把这两种方式成功地结合了起来,故选combination(结合,联合)。collection “收集”;strategy “策略”;system“系统”。
12.D 这种方式使 Emma生了五只幼鹤。enable sb./sth.to do sth.“使某人/某物做某事”,是固定搭配,且符合此处的语境。force sb.to do sth.“迫使某人做某事”;forbid sb.to do sth.“禁止某人做某事”;teach sb.to do sth.“教某人做某事”。
13.C 由But 表转折以及后面提到的“必须付出更多的努力”可知,他们现在还不能确定(assured)。defeated “被击败的”;grateful “感激的”;tolerant“容忍的”。
14.D 他们必须付出更多的努力,因为野生白枕鹤的数量在下降(on the decline),并且许多其他物种面临灭绝的危险。
15.B 毕竟(after all)不是每个人都意识到野生动物有思想、有感情,最重要的是,它们有平等的生存权利。in contrast “相比之下”;by the way“顺便说一下”;on the contrary “相反”。
Ⅶ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了继2021年建立第一批国家公园之后,我国将建新一批国家公园以保护自然生态系统。
1.orderly 考查形容词。分析句子可知,此空修饰空后的名词manner,应用形容词作定语;in an orderly manner 意为“以一种有条理的方式”。故填 orderly。
2.to strengthen 考查动词不定式。根据句意可知,此空作目的状语,应用不定式。故填 to strengthen。
3.whose 考查定语从句。分析句子可知,“      main target is to protect...”是定语从句,先行词是land or sea areas,设空处在从句中作定语,修饰名词短语 main target。故填 whose。
4.nationally 考查副词。分析句子可知此空修饰形容词 representative,应用副词作状语,故用 national 的副词形式 nationally,表示“全国性地”。
5.a 考查冠词。area为可数名词;此处表泛指概念,应用不定冠词;protected 的发音以辅音音素开头,故填a。
6.found 考查过去分词。分析句子可知,句子主干是“These parks are home to...”,句中已有谓语动词are,设空处应用非谓语动词。由语境可知,此处表示“在我国发现的主要陆地野生生物物种”,则设空处作后置定语,修饰wildlife species;wildlife species 和 find 之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,应用过去分词。故填 found。
7.rivers 考查名词的数。由句意可知,这里表示三条河流,所以应用复数形式。故填rivers。
8.under 考查介词。 under good protection 意为“在良好的保护下”,为固定搭配。故填 under。
9.will be made 考查时态和语态。由下文的 will also increase 及语境可知此处要用一般将来时,且主语为 Efforts,与 make 之间是被动关系,故填 will be made。
