In birds, males are often the ones having showy, colourful feathers—the better to attract females. For example, male cardinals get bright red feathers, while females are pale brown. And the male white-necked jacobin, a tiny tropical hummingbird (蜂鸟), has a deep blue head and lively green back, whereas females are generally drab.
But not always. Researchers studying white-necked jacobins in Panama noticed that nearly 30 percent of the more than 120 females they caught between 2015 and 2019 turned out to be females that looked like males, while 2 years later over 40 percent did. A study published in Current Biology explains why. It turns out that copying male colouration helps female white-necked jacobins avoid being disturbed by other hummingbirds while feeding.
“The bright colouration on the bird is associated with attack,” says Jay Falk, an evolutionary ecologist. “Just looking like males seems to stop bullies, allowing females better access to honey.” Falk and his colleagues also wondered if the male-lookalike female jacobins were trying to attract mates by standing out from the drab females, or if they were competing with each other for honey. Falk and his colleagues turned to their next guess: resource competition. They found that the male-copying females appeared in front of the feeders more often and spent more time feeding than the drab females.
With such benefits, why don’t all females develop bright feathers It not only requires more energy and time to keep the feathers, but it’s also risky. Female hummingbirds are single parents, which is already energy-demanding. “On top of that, if you’re brightly coloured and sitting on a brown nest in a green tree, you’re going to stand out,” Falk says. “It’s much easier to be eaten.”

Watching thousands of baby puffins (海鹦), known as pufflings, being thrown off a cliff (悬崖) is perfectly normal for the people of Iceland’s Westman Islands. This yearly tradition is what’s known as “puffling season” and it is a crucial practice. Puffins are charming birds and attract locals and tourists to visit them. But during puffling season, the focus shifts from merely watching to actively helping the young puffins.
The chicks of puffins hatch in nests on high sea cliffs. About six weeks after hatching, they will fly from their nests and spend several years at sea until they return to land to breed. Puffins have historically found the ocean by following the light of the moon.
But because of lights from towns near where the puffins nest, they can get lost. Instead of heading out to sea to fish and grow strong, the birds end up heading inland. They wander on the streets, where cars, cats, and buildings pose dangerous obstacles. So, many residents spend a few weeks in August and September collecting baby puffins that have crashed into town and then gently throwing them into the ocean.
According to Erpur Hansen, a local ecologist, the average puffin population in Iceland has decreased by 70 percent over the last 30 years. “While light pollution may be the most visible and easily blamed issue, what’s restricting puffin numbers most dramatically are rising sea surface temperatures,” he explains. Further worsening the issue, puffins also only lay one egg per year, and only after they’re 3-6 years old. That rareness, lack of food, and the legal hunting of the birds in Iceland all come together to threaten the population.
In fact, Hansen has suggested that if all factors continue on a similar trend, puffins in Iceland could be a thing of the past in a matter of decades. “On the upside, the last few years have seen something of a population increase, but that doesn’t mean it’s time to relax and it’s important to remain watchful to protect the birds, especially during puffling season,” Hansen says.
( )5.What do people from Westman Islands usually do in puffling season
A.Watch pufflings thrown off a cliff by adult puffins.
B.Observe pufflings flying from their nests to breed.
C.Search for pufflings and release them into the ocean.
D.Celebrate the pufflings’ successful migration journey.
( )6.Why do many puffins lose their way
A.The moonlight is hazier than it used to be.
B.They are misled by artificial lights inland.
C.They are born with poor sense of direction.
D.Natural environment is too complicated to adapt. 
( )7.What does Paragraph 4 mainly focus on about the puffin
A.The multiple factors causing its decline.
B.The impact of climate change on it.
C.The rareness of its breeding features.
D.The numerous challenges its habitat faces.
( )8.What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph
A.There’s no need for long-term fix for the pufflings.
B.Puffins’ future is overwhelmingly discouraging.
C.Constant active intervention from humans is essential.
D.The puffling season tradition should be spread across Iceland.

What happened at Empangeni Wildlife Reserve in South Africa was like a  1  from the film Madagascar: a herd of elephants conducted a daring escape,  2  some antelopes (羚羊) from their enclosed zone.
In June 2024, staff at the reserve were closely  3  the health conditions of the antelopes when they noticed several elephants slowly approaching and  4 . Assuming that the elephants were  5  searching for hay (干草), the staff didn’t pay much attention to the gentle  6  at first.
Before they knew it, however, one elephant had  7  used its trunk to unlock and open the gate, setting the antelopes free. The staff were  8  as the antelopes rushed headlong into the  9  bush, with the elephants following closely behind as if they were playing a game. It took their caretakers several hours of  10  and chasing under the hot sun to finally settle the antelopes down and guide them back behind the  11 .
Why did the elephants do this No one knows for sure and the reason behind their actions remains a puzzle. “But we know that elephants have a sense of  12 ,” says elephant expert William Macmillan of the Pittsburgh Zoo. He couldn’t hide a  13  in his voice. “Maybe they were having fun!”
And so, the tale of the elephants outsmarting the humans has become a legendary story at the reserve. It stands as a vivid reminder of the  14  nature of the wildlife and their astonishing, human-like intelligence, leaving the staff with a deeper appreciation of the  15  of nature.

Unit 5 Into the wild
●ⅠA
【文章大意】 这是一篇说明文。研究发现雌性白颈蜂鸟模仿雄性羽毛颜色可助其进食,同时阐述了不都进化出鲜艳羽毛的原因。
1.C 推理判断题。根据第一段“For example, male cardinals get bright red feathers, while females are pale brown. And the male white-necked jacobin, a tiny tropical hummingbird (蜂鸟), has a deep blue head and lively green back, whereas females are generally drab.”(例如,雄性红衣凤头鸟有鲜红色的羽毛,而雌性是浅棕色的。雄性白颈蜂鸟,一种小型热带蜂鸟,有深蓝色的头部和鲜艳的绿色背部,而雌性通常颜色单调。)可知,作者通过比较雄性和雌性鸟类羽毛颜色的不同来引入话题。故选C。
2.C 推理判断题。根据第二段“Researchers studying white-necked jacobins in Panama noticed that nearly 30 percent of the more than 120 females they caught between 2015 and 2019 turned out to be females that looked like males, while 2 years later over 40 percent did.”(在巴拿马研究白颈蜂鸟的研究人员注意到,在2015年至2019年间捕获的120多只雌性蜂鸟中,近30%的雌性看起来像雄性,而两年后这一比例超过了40%。)可知,像雄性的雌性白颈蜂鸟的数量在增加。故选C。
3.B 细节理解题。根据第二段“A study published in Current Biology explains why. It turns out that copying male colouration helps female white-necked jacobins avoid being disturbed by other hummingbirds while feeding.”(发表在《当代生物学》上的一项研究解释了原因。事实证明,模仿雄性的颜色有助于雌性白颈蜂鸟在进食时避免受到其他蜂鸟的干扰。)以及第三段“Just looking like males seems to stop bullies, allowing females better access to honey.”(仅仅看起来像雄性似乎就能阻止霸凌者,这让雌性有更好的机会获得蜂蜜。)可知,雌性白颈蜂鸟模仿雄性的颜色是为了有更多生存的机会。故选B。
4.A 段落大意题。根据最后一段“With such benefits, why don’t all females develop bright feathers It not only requires more energy and time to keep the feathers, but it’s also risky. Female hummingbirds are single parents, which is already energy-demanding. ‘On top of that, if you’re brightly coloured and sitting on a brown nest in a green tree, you’re going to stand out,’ Falk says. ‘It’s much easier to be eaten.’”(有这样的好处,为什么不是所有的雌性都长出鲜艳的羽毛呢 保持鲜艳的羽毛不仅需要更多的能量和时间,而且还有风险。雌性蜂鸟是单亲妈妈,这已经很耗费精力了。“除此之外,如果你颜色鲜艳,坐在绿色树上的棕色巢穴上,你会很显眼,”福克说。“这样更容易被吃掉。”)可知,最后一段主要讲了拥有鲜艳羽毛的缺点。故选A。
B
【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了冰岛韦斯特曼群岛的“海鹦幼鸟季”传统,阐述海鹦幼鸟迷路原因,还分析了海鹦数量减少的因素及保护的重要性。
5.C 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Watching thousands of baby puffins (海鹦), known as pufflings, being thrown off a cliff (悬崖) is perfectly normal for the people of Iceland’s Westman Islands. This yearly tradition is what’s known as ‘puffling season’ and it is a crucial practice.”(对于冰岛韦斯特曼群岛的人们来说,观看成千上万的小海鹦被扔下悬崖是再正常不过的事。这个一年一度的传统被称为“海鹦幼鸟季”,这是一个至关重要的做法。)和第三段中“So, many residents spend a few weeks in August and September collecting baby puffins that have crashed into town and then gently throwing them into the ocean.”(所以,许多居民会在8月和9月花几周时间收集冲进城镇的小海鹦,然后轻轻地把它们扔进海里。)可知,韦斯特曼群岛的人们在海鹦幼鸟季通常会寻找海鹦幼鸟并将它们放归海洋。故选C。
6.B 细节理解题。根据第三段中“But because of lights from towns near where the puffins nest, they can get lost. Instead of heading out to sea to fish and grow strong, the birds end up heading inland.”(但由于海鹦筑巢地附近城镇的灯光,它们会迷路。这些鸟没有出海捕鱼并茁壮成长,而是最终飞向了内陆。)可知,许多海鹦迷路是因为它们被内陆的人造灯光误导了。故选B。
7.A 段落大意题。根据第四段中“‘While light pollution may be the most visible and easily blamed issue, what’s restricting puffin numbers most dramatically are rising sea surface temperatures,’ he explains. Further worsening the issue, puffins also only lay one egg per year, and only after they’re 3-6 years old. That rareness, lack of food, and the legal hunting of the birds in Iceland all come together to threaten the population.”(他解释说:“虽然光污染可能是最明显、最容易被指责的问题,但对海鹦数量限制最严重的是不断上升的海面温度。”更糟糕的是,海鹦每年只产一枚蛋,而且要到3~6岁之后才开始产蛋。这种繁殖的稀少性、食物短缺以及冰岛对海鹦的合法捕猎,共同威胁着海鹦的数量。)可知,该段主要聚焦于导致海鹦数量减少的多种因素。故选A。
8.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“‘On the upside, the last few years have seen something of a population increase, but that doesn’t mean it’s time to relax and it’s important to remain watchful to protect the birds, especially during puffling season,’ Hansen says.”(汉森说:“从好的方面看,过去几年海鹦数量有所增加,但这并不意味着可以放松了,保持警惕以保护这些鸟很重要,尤其是在海鹦幼鸟季。”)可知,因为人类的保护,过去几年海鹦数量有所增加,所以作者在最后一段中想传达的是“人类持续的积极干预是必不可少的”。故选C。
●Ⅱ 【文章大意】 本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲的是由中国国家地理主办的中国野生生物影像年赛的情况。
1.an 考查冠词。event是可数名词的单数形式,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,event的发音以元音音素开头,因此不定冠词用an,故填an。

3.themed 考查非谓语动词。句中谓语是aims,空格处用非谓语动词,competition和theme之间是逻辑动宾关系,因此空格处用过去分词表被动,作后置定语,故填themed。
4.entries 考查名词复数。entry是可数名词,获奖作品不止一个,因此空格处用复数,故填entries。
5.noticeably 考查副词。空格处用副词修饰动词短语stood out,noticeable的副词是noticeably,意为“显著地,引人注目地”,故填noticeably。
6.diversity 考查名词。空格处用名词作宾语,diverse的名词是diversity,是不可数名词,意为“多样性”。故填diversity。
7.when 考查定语从句。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句,从句中不缺主语或宾语,先行词moment指时间,因此用关系副词when,故填when。
8.for 考查介词。wait for是固定短语,意为“等待”,因此空格处用介词for,故填for。
9.broader 考查形容词比较级。根据语境可知,句子表示“以鼓励更广泛的公众参与”,空格处用比较级broader,表示“更广泛的”。故填broader。
10.to reconnect 考查非谓语动词。inspire sb to do sth是固定搭配,意为“激励某人做某事”,因此空格处是不定式to reconnect,故填to reconnect。

A [2025·湖南常德高三一模]
文体:说明文 主题:人与自然 词数:299
In birds, males are often the ones having showy, colourful
feathers—the better to attract females. For example, male cardinals get
bright red feathers, while females are pale brown. And the male
white-necked jacobin, a tiny tropical hummingbird (蜂鸟), has a deep
blue head and lively green back, whereas females are generally drab.

But not always. Researchers studying white-necked jacobins in
Panama noticed that nearly 30 percent of the more than 120 females
they caught between 2015 and 2019 turned out to be females that
looked like males, while 2 years later over 40 percent did. A study
published in Current Biology explains why. It turns out that copying
male colouration helps female white-necked jacobins avoid being
disturbed by other hummingbirds while feeding.

“The bright colouration on the bird is associated with attack,” says
Jay Falk, an evolutionary ecologist. “Just looking like males seems to
stop bullies, allowing females better access to honey.” Falk and his
colleagues also wondered if the male-lookalike female jacobins were
trying to attract mates by standing out from the drab females, or if
they were competing with each other for honey. Falk and his colleagues
turned to their next guess: resource competition. They found that the
male-copying females appeared in front of the feeders more often
and spent more time feeding than the drab females.

With such benefits, why don’t all females develop bright feathers
It not only requires more energy and time to keep the feathers, but it’s \
also risky. Female hummingbirds are single parents, which is already
energy-demanding. “On top of that, if you’re brightly coloured and
sitting on a brown nest in a green tree, you’re going to stand out,”
Falk says. “It’s much easier to be eaten.”

a brown nest in a green tree, you're going to stand out,’ Falk says.
‘It’s much easier to be eaten.’”(有这样的好处,为什么不是所有的雌性
都长出鲜艳的羽毛呢 保持鲜艳的羽毛不仅需要更多的能量和时间,
而且还有风险。雌性蜂鸟是单亲妈妈,这已经很耗费精力了。“除此
之外,如果你颜色鲜艳,坐在绿色树上的棕色巢穴上,你会很显眼,”福克
说。“这样更容易被吃掉。”)可知,最后一段主要讲了拥有鲜艳羽毛的
缺点。故选A。

文体:说明文 主题:人与自然 词数:348
Watching thousands of baby puffins (海鹦), known as pufflings,
being thrown off a cliff (悬崖) is perfectly normal for the people of
Iceland’s Westman Islands. This yearly tradition is what’s known as
“puffling season” and it is a crucial practice. Puffins are charming
birds and attract locals and tourists to visit them. But during puffling
season, the focus shifts from merely watching to actively helping the
young puffins.

The chicks of puffins hatch in nests on high sea cliffs. About six
weeks after hatching, they will fly from their nests and spend several
years at sea until they return to land to breed. Puffins have historically
found the ocean by following the light of the moon.
But because of lights from towns near where the puffins nest,
they can get lost. Instead of heading out to sea to fish and grow
strong, the birds end up heading inland. They wander on the streets,
where cars, cats, and buildings pose dangerous obstacles. So, many
residents spend a few weeks in August and September collecting

baby puffins that have crashed into town and then gently throwing
them into the ocean.
According to Erpur Hansen, a local ecologist, the average puffin
population in Iceland has decreased by 70 percent over the last 30
years. “While light pollution may be the most visible and easily blamed
issue, what’s restricting puffin numbers most dramatically are rising sea
surface temperatures,” he explains. Further worsening the issue, puffins
also only lay one egg per year, and only after they’re 3-6 years old.
That rareness, lack of food, and the legal hunting of the birds

in Iceland all come together to threaten the population.
In fact, Hansen has suggested that if all factors continue on a
similar trend, puffins in Iceland could be a thing of the past in a matter
of decades. “On the upside, the last few years have seen something of
a population increase, but that doesn’t mean it’s time to relax and it’s
important to remain watchful to protect the birds, especially during
puffling season,” Hansen says.

This yearly tradition is what’s known as ‘puffling season’ and it is a crucial
practice.”(对于冰岛韦斯特曼群岛的人们来说,观看成千上万的小海鹦被
扔下悬崖是再正常不过的事。这个一年一度的传统被称为“海鹦幼鸟季”,
这是一个至关重要的做法。)和第三段中“So, many residents spend a
few weeks in August and September collecting baby puffins that have
crashed into town and then gently throwing them into the ocean.”(所以,
许多居民会在8月和9月花几周时间收集冲进城镇的小海鹦,然后轻轻地
把它们扔进海里。)可知,韦斯特曼群岛的人们在海鹦幼鸟季通常会寻找
海鹦幼鸟并将它们放归海洋。故选C。
( )6. Why do many puffins lose their way
A.The moonlight is hazier than it used to be.
B.They are misled by artificial lights inland.
C.They are born with poor sense of direction.
D.Natural environment is too complicated to adapt.

由于海鹦筑巢地附近城镇的灯光,它们会迷路。这些鸟没有出海捕鱼
并茁壮成长,而是最终飞向了内陆。)可知,许多海鹦迷路是因为它们被
内陆的人造灯光误导了。故选B。

Further worsening the issue, puffins also only lay one egg per year, and
only after they’re 3-6 years old. That rareness, lack of food, and the
legal hunting of the birds in Iceland all come together to threaten the
population.”(他解释说:“虽然光污染可能是最明显、最容易被指责的
问题,但对海鹦数量限制最严重的是不断上升的海面温度。”更糟糕的
是,海鹦每年只产一枚蛋,而且要到3~6岁之后才开始产蛋。这种繁殖
的稀少性、食物短缺以及冰岛对海鹦的合法捕猎,共同威胁着海鹦的
数量。)可知,该段主要聚焦于导致海鹦数量减少的多种因素。故选A。

birds, especially during puffling season,’ Hansen says.”(汉森说:“从好的
方面看,过去几年海鹦数量有所增加,但这并不意味着可以放松了,保持
警惕以保护这些鸟很重要,尤其是在海鹦幼鸟季。”)可知,因为人类的
保护,过去几年海鹦数量有所增加,所以作者在最后一段中想传达的是
“人类持续的积极干预是必不可少的”。故选C。
