24、每天都有一些物種滅絕。白鶴就是其中之一。但是，有很多人正在竭盡全力保護(hù)這些物種免于滅絕。如Chris和Tim通過(guò)努力，幫助一只名叫Emma的雌鶴繁殖了五只幼鶴。 【36題詳解】 考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A.growing生長(zhǎng)；B.migrating遷移；C.competing競(jìng)爭(zhēng)；D.disappearing消失。根據(jù)第一句“Wildlife has been greatlythreatened in the modern age”和最后一句提到的“…the species from going out of existence”可以推知，野生動(dòng)物正在遭受巨大威脅，每天都有一些物種滅絕，即：“消失”

25、。D選項(xiàng)正確。 【37題詳解】 考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A.ban禁止；B.save挽救，保護(hù)；C.split分裂；D.remove移除。前文提到每天都有物種消失，那么該句應(yīng)指科學(xué)家們正在竭盡全力保護(hù)這些物種，使它們免于滅絕。故B選項(xiàng)正確。 【38題詳解】 考查名詞辨析。A.abortion墮胎；B.recreation娛樂(lè)；C.reproduction繁殖；D.administration管理。上文最后一句提到科學(xué)家們竭盡全力保護(hù)瀕臨滅絕的物種，由此推知，該處應(yīng)指Chris和Tim幫助瀕危物種繁殖，增加它們的數(shù)量，這樣它們才不至于滅絕。故該空應(yīng)指“繁殖”，C選項(xiàng)正確。 【39題詳解】 考查

26、名詞辨析。A.care照顧；B.eye眼睛；C.mind思想；D.story故事。自從2004年，Emma一直由Chris和Tim照顧。該空和下一句中的“human caretaker”呼應(yīng)。故選A。 【40題詳解】 考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A.found發(fā)現(xiàn)；B.chosen選擇；C.raised撫養(yǎng)；D.seized抓住。根據(jù)空后的“human caretakers”可知，caretaker當(dāng)然是照看Emma的。故該句應(yīng)指：出生在一個(gè)國(guó)際鶴基地，Emma由人類撫養(yǎng)照看。故選C。 【41題詳解】 考查名詞辨析。A.bonus獎(jiǎng)金；B.consequence結(jié)果；C.victory勝利；D.sa

27、crifice犧牲。根據(jù)空后的though（盡管）可知，though前后的兩個(gè)句子之間是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。后面提到，她過(guò)得很開(kāi)心。根據(jù)轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，那么前文應(yīng)該表示“但是這導(dǎo)致了出乎意料的結(jié)果”。B選項(xiàng)正確。 【42題詳解】 考查副詞辨析。A.never從未；B.always總是；C.unluckily不幸運(yùn)地；D.cheerfully愉快地。根據(jù)下文中“become deeply attached to humans...even...killing some of them”等內(nèi)容可知，因?yàn)镋mma一直由人類照看，所以它沒(méi)有將自己看作是一只鶴，而是深深的依戀上了人類。故選A。 【43題詳解】

28、考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A.liked喜歡；B.refused拒絕；C.decided拒絕；D.hesitated猶豫。根據(jù)上文，Emma不把自己當(dāng)作鶴，所以它“拒絕”和雄鶴生活在一起。B選項(xiàng)正確。 【44題詳解】 考查名詞辨析。A.gift禮物；B.skill技巧；C.concern涉及；D.reputation名聲。根據(jù)even（甚至）這個(gè)遞進(jìn)關(guān)系可知，Emma不僅拒絕和雄鶴生活在一起，而且因?yàn)榕懒藥字恍埴Q而“臭名昭著”。故D選項(xiàng)正確。 【45題詳解】 考查形容詞辨析。A.illegal非法的；B.inspiring鼓舞人心的；C.important重要的；D.impossible不可能的

29、。Emma拒絕和雄鶴生活，這當(dāng)然使得她“不可能”生育小鶴，成為媽媽。D選項(xiàng)正確。 【46題詳解】 考查連接副詞。A.Therefore因此；B.Moreover而且；C.However然而；D.Instead反而。上文提到Emma拒絕和雄鶴生活，使得她不可能生育小鶴。下文提到兩位動(dòng)物園管理員不想看到這一物種的滅絕。由此推知，上下文之間是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。C選項(xiàng)正確。 【47題詳解】 考查名詞辨析。A.combination結(jié)合；B.collection收集；C.strategy策略；D.system體系。經(jīng)過(guò)努力，Chris和Tim成功的將“人工繁殖”和“自然繁殖”結(jié)合在一起。A選項(xiàng)正確。

30、【48題詳解】 考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A.forced強(qiáng)迫；B.forbade禁止；C.taught教；D.enabled使能夠。Chris和Tim成功的將“人工繁殖”和“自然繁殖”結(jié)合在一起，這使得Emma誕育了五只幼鶴。enable sb. to do sth.意為“使……能夠做某事”，D選項(xiàng)正確。 【49題詳解】 考查形容詞辨析。A.defeated被打敗的；B.grateful感激的；C.assured使確信；D.tolerant忍耐的。根據(jù)后文的more efforts must be made可以推知，盡管兩個(gè)人為自己的成就感到驕傲，但是他們還需要付出更多努力，因?yàn)橐吧Q的數(shù)量在減少

31、。所以他們還不能完全放心（白鶴不會(huì)滅絕）。故選C。 【50題詳解】 考查名詞辨析。A.list清單；B.rise上升；C.agenda議程；D.decline下降。前后句之間是因果關(guān)系，根據(jù)more efforts must be made可以推知，野生白鶴數(shù)量在減少，所以，還要付出更多的努力（來(lái)挽救白鶴滅絕）。故D選項(xiàng)正確。 【51題詳解】 考查介詞短語(yǔ)。A.In contrast相反；B.After all畢竟；C.Bythe way順便問(wèn)一下；D.On the contrary相反地。前文提到野生白鶴數(shù)量正在減少，很多其他物種似乎也在逐漸滅絕。該句提到，并不是所有的人都意識(shí)到野生

32、動(dòng)物有思想，感情，以及平等生存的權(quán)利。很明顯，該句是對(duì)前文出現(xiàn)野生動(dòng)物瀕臨滅絕原因的一種解釋。故B選項(xiàng)正確。 【52題詳解】 考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A.leave離開(kāi)；B.bridge搭橋，彌合；C.open開(kāi)；D.identify確認(rèn)。針對(duì)上文提到的很多物種滅絕這種現(xiàn)象，作者提出一個(gè)問(wèn)題：我們?nèi)绾蝸?lái)彌合將人類和動(dòng)物隔開(kāi)的不斷擴(kuò)大的鴻溝呢？B選項(xiàng)正確。 【53題詳解】 考查名詞辨析。A.course課程；B.excuse借口；C.answer答案；D.reward回報(bào)。前文提出一個(gè)問(wèn)題：我們?nèi)绾蝸?lái)彌合將人類和動(dòng)物隔開(kāi)的不斷擴(kuò)大的鴻溝呢？Chris和Tim的做法給我們提供了一個(gè)答案。C選項(xiàng)正確。

33、 【54題詳解】 考查名詞辨析。A.brains大腦；B.behaviors行為；C.services服務(wù)；D.projects工程。根據(jù)下文中的“hold all the solutions”可以推斷出，人類認(rèn)為自己的“大腦”掌握著所有的解決辦法。即：人類認(rèn)為自己的大腦可以想出所有的解決辦法。A選項(xiàng)正確。 【55題詳解】 考查名詞辨析。A.guide指導(dǎo)，指引；B.treat對(duì)待；C.example例子；D.companion同伴。根據(jù)轉(zhuǎn)折詞but可以推知，人類想當(dāng)然的認(rèn)為自己的“大腦”掌握著所有的解決辦法。但或許他們的新是更好的指引。故A選項(xiàng)正確。 第三部分: 閱讀理解(共1

34、5 小題；每小題2 分, 滿分30 分) 請(qǐng)認(rèn)真閱讀下列短文, 從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D 四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中, 選出最佳選項(xiàng), 并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。 A Whatever your age or interests, Buxton has something to see or do to make your visit truly memorable.

41、B Inthe 1960s,while studying the volcanic history ofYellowstone National Park,Bob Christiansen becamepuzzled about something that,oddly,had not troubled anyone before: he couldn’t find the park’svolcano. It had been known for a long time that Yellowstone was volcanic innature—that’s what accounted

42、for all its hot springs andother steamy features. But Christiansen couldn’t find the Yellowstone volcanoanywhere. Mostof us,when we talk about volcanoes,think of the classic cone(圓錐體) shapes of a Fuji orKilimanjaro, which are created when erupting magma(巖漿)piles up. These can form remarkably quickl

43、y. In 1943,aMexican farmer was surprised to see smoke rising from a small part of his land.In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Withintwo years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more thanhalf a mile across. Altogether there are some ten thou

44、sand of these volcanoeson Earth,all but a few hundred of them extinct. There is,however,a second less known type of volcano that doesn’tinvolve mountain building. These are volcanoes so explosive that they burstopen in a single big crack,leaving behind a vasthole, the caldera. Yellowstone obviously

45、was of this second type,but Christiansen couldn’t find the caldera anywhere. Justat this time NASA decided to test some new high-altitude cameras by takingphotographs of Yellowstone. A thoughtful official passed on some of the copiesto the park authorities on the assumption that they might make a n

46、iceblow-upfor one of the visitors’ centers. As soon as Christiansen saw the photos,he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera: almost thewhole park—2.2 million acres—was caldera. Theexplosion had left a hole more than forty miles across—muchtoo huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level. A

47、t some time in the pastYellowstone must have blown up with a violence far beyond the scale of anythingknown to humans. 58.What puzzled Christiansen when he was studying Yellowstone? A.Its complicated geographical features. B.Its ever-lasting influence on tourism. C.The mysterious history of the

48、park. D.The exact location of the volcano. 59.What does the second paragraph mainly talk about? A.The shapes of volcanoes. B.The impacts of volcanoes. C.The activities of volcanoes. D.The heights of volcanoes. 60.What does the underlined word “blow-up” in the last paragraph mostprobably mean?

49、 A.Hot-air balloon. B.Digital camera. C.Big photograph. D.Bird’s view. 【答案】58.D 59. A 60. C 【解析】 這是一篇記敘文。文章講述了二十世紀(jì)六十年代Bob Christiansen在研究黃石公園的火山歷史時(shí)，奇怪地發(fā)現(xiàn)到處看不到火山的影子，原來(lái)，這兒的火山并不是像我們大部分人想象的那種圓錐體形狀的高聳的樣子，而是一個(gè)巨大的洞，這個(gè)洞太大了以至于從地面上的任何地方都看不見(jiàn)。 【58題詳解】 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句But Christiansen couldn’t find the Yel
