猫头鹰数量下降,于是政府官员决定采取一系列的措施杀死大林鸮猫头鹰来拯救斑点猫头鹰。1.【答案】D【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中“InpartsofthePacificNorthwest,theowlsarenowbelievedtobecausingadrop
inthepopulationofasmaller,lessaggressivebird:thenorthernspottedowl.Inmanyways,thebarredowlisthespottedowl’sworstenemy.(据信,在太平洋西北
部的部分地区,这种猫头鹰导致了一种较小的、攻击性较弱的鸟类:北方斑点猫头鹰的数量下降。在很多方面,大林鸮猫头鹰是斑点猫头鹰最大的敌人)”可知,斑点猫头鹰的主要问题是它们的领地被另一种猫头鹰入侵了。故选D项。2.【答案】C【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段“I

较小的、攻击性较弱的鸟类:北方斑点猫头鹰的数量下降。在很多方面,大林鸮猫头鹰是斑点猫头鹰最大的敌人。大林鸮猫头鹰每年生更多的孩子,并且吃同样的动物,比如松鼠和木鼠。在斑点猫头鹰传统领地的许多地方,它们的数量现在都增加了)”以及第三段中
“Heandotherofficialsaredoingsomethingunusualtoprotectspottedowls:killingbarredowls.(他和其他官员正在采取不同寻常的措施来保护斑点猫头鹰:杀死大林鸮猫头鹰)”可知
,大林鸮猫头鹰被杀死是因为斑点猫头鹰最大的敌人,它们的大量存在使斑点猫头鹰处于危险之中。故选C项。3.【答案】A【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段中“Heandotherofficialsaredoingsomethingunusual
toprotectspottedowls:killingbarredowls.(他和其他官员正在采取不同寻常的措施来保护斑点猫头鹰:杀死大林鸮猫头鹰)”以及最后一段“Tocatchbarredowls,officialsp

鸟类呼叫器。然后,他们退后一步,等待着这些设备发出的声音充满空气。这一切都发生在黑夜里。大林鸮猫头鹰不喜欢自己领地内的其他鸟类,所以它们会飞下来把其他猫头鹰赶走。这时,Wiens和他的团队试着把它们射下来)”可知,官员们安装数字鸟类呼叫器是为了杀死大林鸮猫头鹰
。故选A项。4.【答案】D【解析】主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Heandotherofficialsaredoingsomethingunusualtoprotectspottedowls:killingbarredowls.(他和其他官员正在采取不
同寻常的措施来保护斑点猫头鹰:杀死大林鸮猫头鹰)”以及文章其他段落可知,文章主要介绍了因为大林鸮猫头鹰入侵了斑点猫头鹰的生活领地,导致斑点猫头鹰数量下降,于是政府官员决定采取一系列的措施杀死大林鸮猫头鹰来
拯救斑点猫头鹰,所以文章主要围绕着政府官员如何杀死大林鸮猫头鹰来拯救斑点猫头鹰来展开。由此可知,D选项“KillingOneAnimaltoSaveAnother.(杀死一种动物来拯救另一种)”概括全文主要
内容,作为文章标题最合适。故选D项。Text52(2023秋·河北保定·高一统考期末)SeveraldaysofunusualwarmweatherinnorthernGreenlandhavecausedra

暖的天气导致冰川快速融化,这种温暖令人担忧。5.【答案】B【解析】推理判断题。文章第一段讲到“Temperatureshavebeenrunningaround-12.2℃-15.5℃.Itiswarmerthannormalforthistimeofyear(气温一直在-12.2℃-
15.5℃左右。今年这个时候比正常情况要暖和。)”可知作者通过比较来支持第一段的主题,故选B。6.【答案】B【解析】细节理解题。文章第二段讲到“Forthescientistsoutontheicesheet(冰盖),thewarmthhasbeenalarming.‘Itrea
llymakesmeanxious,’saidKutalmisSaylam(对于冰盖上的科学家来说,这种温暖令人担忧“这真的让我很焦虑,”KutalmisSaylam说)”可知在第二段中的Kutalmis的意思是他很担心变暖,故选B
。7.【答案】D【解析】词义猜测题。文章第四段划线单词后文讲到“Theweatherweareseeingrightnowistoohotfortheski-equippedplanestoland(我们现在看到的天气太热,滑雪飞机无法降落)”可知飞机
无法降落的原因是上文提到的“Butthewarmthisdestabilizingthelandingsite(但这种温暖正在破坏着陆点的稳定)”可知降落地点遭到破坏,带下划线单词的意思是“破坏”,故选D
。8.【答案】C【解析】推理判断题。本文主要介绍了格陵兰岛北部连续几天异常温暖的天气导致冰川快速融化,这种温暖令人担忧。文章最后一段讲到“Grinstedreferredtothetemperaturesasaheatwave,andnotedthatthepossibilityoftem
peraturesgettingthishotwasclearlyconnectedtoglobalwarming.(Grinsted将温度称为热浪,并指出温度升高的可能性显然与全球变暖有关。)”可推理作者在下一段中可能
会呼吁人们保护环境,故选C。Text53(2022秋·陕西渭南·高一统考期末)WolvesoncerangedovermostofNorthAmerica.Buttheywerenearlywipedoutbytheearly20thcenturyintheneigh

减少,因此美国科罗拉多州颁布一项提案,重新引入灰狼,以保持当地的自然平衡。9.【答案】C【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段关键句“WolvesoncerangedovermostofNorthAmerica.Buttheywerenearlywipedoutbytheearly2
0thcenturyintheneighborU.S.bywidespreadhuntingandtrapping.Muchofthemwerefundedbygovernment,andonlyasmallpopulationwerehangingonintheGreatLak
esregion.TheywereputontheEndangeredSpeciesListinthe1970s,andin1995and1996thefederalgovernmentreintroducedwolvestoY
ellowstoneNationalParkandIdaho.Butwolvesstilldon’thavestablenumbersinColorado.”(狼曾经遍布北美大部分地区。但到20世纪初,由于广泛的狩猎和诱捕,它们在邻国美国几乎灭绝。其中大部分是由政府资助的,只有一小部分人在五大
湖地区继续生存。它们在20世纪70年代被列入濒危物种名单,1995年和1996年,联邦政府将狼重新引入黄石国家公园和爱达荷州。但在科罗拉多州,狼的数量仍然不稳定。)可知,第一段陈述了由于广泛的捕猎和诱捕,狼的数量急剧减少,在20世纪70年代被列入濒危物
种名单;再根据第一段关键句“Votersnarrowly(勉强地)approvedaproposal,givingthewayforgraywolvestobereintroducedintoColorado,wheretheynearlydiedoutbythe1940s.”(选民们以
微弱优势通过了一项提案,为灰狼重新引入科罗拉多州铺平了道路,在20世纪40年代,灰狼几乎在科罗拉多州灭绝。)可知,后文介绍了正是因为狼的数量急剧减少,所以选民们通过了一项提案,将灰狼重新引入科罗拉多州,接下来的段落里介绍了提案的
好处和人们对提案的看法,由此可知,第1段的作用是给出提案被提出的原因。故选C项。10.【答案】A【解析】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段关键句“Peopleinruralareasareagainstthereintroductionproposal,includingfarmers
,whoworrythatwolveswillkilltheircattle.”(农村地区的人们反对这项重新引入的提议,包括农民,他们担心狼会杀死他们的牛。)可知,当地的农民反对重新引进狼群的提议,因为他们认
为这是狼群会杀死他们的牛。故选A。11.【答案】B【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段关键句“‘Reintroducingwolveswillhelpthinoutsickanimals,keepinghealthypopulationsofdeer,andthusprotect
ingthegrassandreducingerosion(土壤侵蚀).”saysJonathanProctor.”(乔纳森·普罗克特说:“重新引入狼将有助于减少生病的动物,保持健康的鹿群的数量,从而保护草地,减少土壤侵蚀”。)可知,重新引入狼可以减少
生病的动物,从而保护草地,减少土壤侵蚀,这将会对保持科罗拉多州的自然平衡有利,由此可知,重新引入狼的目的是保持科罗拉多州的自然平衡。故选B项。12.【答案】B【解析】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段关键句“Peopleinruralareasareagainstthereintroduct
ionproposal,includingfarmers,whoworrythatwolveswillkilltheircattle.”(农村地区的人们反对这项重新引入的提议,包括农民,他们担心狼会杀死他们的牛。)和最后一段关键句“TheColoradoproposal
willalsofundaprogramtomakeupforthefarmanimalsbeingkilled.”(科罗拉多州的提案还将为一项计划提供资金,以补偿被杀的农场动物。)可知,农民担心狼会杀死他们的牛,反对这项提案,因此,这项提案还将
为一项计划提供资金,以补偿被杀的农场动物,由此可知,当地农民将从该提案中得到因损失农场动物获得的额外资金。故选B项。Text54(2023秋·甘肃庆阳·高一统考期末)Onemillionspeciesfaceextinction,morethaneverbeforeinhumanhis

联合国的一份报告表明,现在世界上有100多万物种面临灭绝,分析了物种灭绝的原因以及对人类造成的后果,并呼吁人类应该做出改变。13.推理判断题。根据首段“Onemillionspeciesfaceextinction,morethaneverbeforeinhumanhisto
ry,accordingtoaUNreportreleasedinMay.Andhumansshouldberesponsible.(根据联合国5月发布的一份报告,有100万个物种面临灭绝,比人类历史上任何时候都多。人类应该为此负责。)”可知,首段引用联合国公布的一项报告,说明世界上
物种灭绝严重,结合下文对物种灭绝的原因和后果进行分析可以判断,首段的目的是引出本文的话题。故选A项。14.主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“Thefindingsareclearandalarming.Theresearchershavefo
undthatabout25percentoftheworld’splantsandanimalsareatriskofextinction.(调查结果是明确和令人震惊的。研究人员发现,世界上约有25%的植物和动物面临灭绝的危险。)”可知,对于物
种灭绝的数量研究结果令人震惊,世界上25%的动植物处于灭绝的危险中,这说明了物种灭绝严重。故选C项。15.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Theresearchersidentifiedfivedriversresponsiblefortheunpleasantnews.Theythin
katthetopofthelististhechangeoflandandseause.(研究人员确定了造成这一令人不快的消息的推手。他们认为排在首位的是土地和海洋用途的变化。)”可知,造成物种灭绝的威胁中排在最前面的是土地和海洋用途的变化。故选C项。16.推理判断题。
根据最后一段中的“Theresearcherssayitistimeforhumanstomakeachange.Theythinkmaybeanewglobalwaytosavefoodandrefusewasteinourlifecouldturnthetab
les.(研究人员说,现在是人类做出改变的时候了。他们认为,也许一种新的全球方法来节省食物和拒绝我们生活中的浪费可以扭转局面。)”可知,研究者说我们人类应该做出改变了,一种新的全球方法来节省食物和拒绝我们生活中的浪费可以扭转局面,由此可推断,研究者支持“改变生活习惯”这一观点

解题。根据第七段最后一句“VideosandothersocialmediapoststhathighlighttheworkofFridaandherimpressiverecordofdetectingpe
opletrappedbynaturaldisastersspreadquicklyonline.(视频和其他社交媒体帖子在网上迅速传播,这些视频和帖子强调了弗里达的工作以及她在探测自然灾害受困人员方面令人印象深刻的记
录)”可知,使弗里达成为社交媒体明星的是她的营救纪录和孜孜不倦的工作。故选D项。18.词句猜测题。根据第五段“IfFridadetectsthepresenceofasurvivor,sheistrainedtobarktowarnrescueworker
sbutifshedetectsacorpseshestopssuddenlybeforecontinuing,herhandlerexplained.(如果弗里达发现幸存者,她会吠叫以提醒救援人员,但如果发现corpse,她会突然停下来)”可知,如果弗里达发现幸存者,她会吠叫以提
醒救援人员,由but可知,前后是转折对比关系,由此可知,后文指如果她发现死者,就会突然停下,划线部分意为“死者,尸体”。故选B项。19.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Whileshehasyettodetectanyonetrappedi
ntheruinsthisweek,sheandotherrescuedogsarecontinuingtoworktirelessly,searchingthroughspacesthathumansc
annotreach.Withthepossibilitythattherearestillpeopletrappedalive,timewilltellwhethersheaddstoherrescuerecord.(虽然本周她还没有
发现任何被困在废墟中的人,但她和其他搜救犬继续不知疲倦地工作,在人类无法到达的地方进行搜索。有可能仍有人被困,时间会告诉我们她是否增加了她的救援记录。)”可知,某些陷于困境的人仍有幸存的可能性,弗里达和其他救援犬也仍然在孜孜不倦地工作,因此弗里达找到幸存者,刷
新营救纪录创造奇迹是可能的,所以说她可能会做得很好。故选C项。20.主旨大意题。根据第一段“Fifteendogsfromthenavy’scanine(犬科的)unithaveassistedthisweekinther
escueeffortsatthesitesofcollapsedbuildingsacrossMexicoCity,wheremorethan50peoplehavebeenpulledalivefromtheruins.(本周,来自海
军警犬部队的15只警犬协助了墨西哥城各地倒塌建筑的救援工作,已有50多人从废墟中被救出)”可知,本文主要讲述来自海军犬队的十五只狗协助了救援工作,将50多人从废墟中救出。由此可知“墨西哥特殊的救援者”可以作为本文标题,故选A项。Text56(2022秋·广东深圳·高一深圳市

tberecycled.(全球只有9%的塑料垃圾被回收。塑料吸管绝不是最大的塑料污染源,但它们最近却受到了抨击,因为大多数人不需要吸管喝饮料,而且由于它们体积小、重量轻,无法回收利用)”可知,吸管由于体积小,重量轻
,无法回收利用,由此可推知,作者在第三段讨论吸管是为了展示它们回收的困难,故选A项。23.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Every60seconds,atruckload’sworthofplasticenterstheocean.Forth
