【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 the smell of dead flesh, sometimes for hours, effectively convincing potential predators they can find a much fresher meal elsewhere.”可知，負鼠假裝死亡，讓捕食者在其他地方找到更新鮮的食物，以避免成為捕食者的目標(biāo)。故選B。 （3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)Millipedes (千足蟲)部分中的“Their major defense is to curl up into a ball. They, though, also release a harm eyes, and leave a horrible smell on their attackers.”可知，千足蟲主要防守是蜷成一團。然而，它們也會釋放出有害 的眼睛，并在攻擊者身上留下可怕的氣味。從而可以推斷出，千足蟲是擁有多種防御機制的物種。故選C。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇科普類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。4．犇犇閱讀下面文章，然后從題中所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選出每個問題的最佳選項。 An international team of researchers from the University of Oxford have found that the way people use the Internet is closely tied to the seasonal movements in the natural world. Their online species searches follow the patterns of seasonal animal migrations (遷徙). Migratory birds (候鳥) flood back to where they reproduce every spring. That migratory behavior is acpanied by some human behavior. In Englishlanguage Wikipedia (維基百科), the online searches for migratory species tend to increase in spring when those birds arrive in the United States, said the lead author John Mittermeier. And not just birds. Mittermeier and his team surveyed nearly billion Wikipedia search records, for 32,000 species, across 245 languages. They also saw variable search rates for insects, horsetails and flowering plants. Seasonal trends seemed to be widespread in Wikipedia behavior for many species of plants and animals. This finding suggests new ways to monitor changes in the world39。s biological diversity. It also shows new ways to see how much people care about nature, and which species and areas might be the most effective targets for conservation. Mittermeier is encouraged by the search results. He mented, I think there39。s a concern among conservationists (生態(tài)環(huán)境保護者) that people are losing touch with the natural world and that they39。re not interacting with native species anymore. And so in that sense, it was really exciting and quite unexpected for me to see people39。s Wikipedia interest closely related to changes in nature. Richard Grenyer, Associate Professor from the University of Oxford, says search data is useful to conservation biologists, By using these big data approaches, we can direct our attention towards the difficult questions in modern conservation: which species and areas are changing, and where are the people who care the most and can do the most to help.（1）What have researchers found about species searches? strengthen ties among people. affect the animal movements. differ in language backgrounds. reflect animal migration seasons.（2）What is the purpose of writing Paragraph 3? summarize the research process. further support the research findings. show the variety of species searches. present researchers39。 heavy work load.（3）How does Mittermeier feel about the search results? with Wikipedia39。s service. about Wikipedia behavior. at people39。s care about nature. about people39。s not getting close to nature.（4）Why does Richard think such search data is useful? helps to aim at conservation targets. increases interest in big data approaches. keeps track of trends in biologists39。 work. pushes people to solve difficult problems.【答案】 （1）D（2）B（3）C（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，牛津大學(xué)的一個國際研究小組發(fā)現(xiàn)，人們使用互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的方式與自然界的季節(jié)性運動密切相關(guān)。他們的在線物種搜索遵循季節(jié)性動物遷徙的模式。這一發(fā)現(xiàn)提出了監(jiān)測世界生物多樣性變化的新方法。它還展示了一種新的方式來了解人們有多關(guān)心自然，以及哪些物種和地區(qū)可能是最有效的保護目標(biāo)。 （1）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“Their online species searches follow the patterns of seasonal animal migrations (遷徙).”可知關(guān)于物種搜索，研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)了他們遵循季節(jié)性動物遷徙的模式。故選D。 （2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第三段中的“Seasonal trends seemed to be widespread in Wikipedia behavior for many species of plants and animals.”可知在維基百科上，許多動植物的行為似乎都有季節(jié)性趨勢。即第三段的寫作目的是為了進一步支持研究結(jié)果。故選B。 （3）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“it was really exciting and quite unexpected for me to see people39。s Wikipedia interest closely related to changes in nature”可知Mittermeier看到人們對維基百科的興趣是與大自然的變化密切相關(guān)的，感到非常興奮和意外。故選C。 （4）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)最后一段中的“By using these big data approaches, we can direct our attention towards the difficult questions in modern conservation: which species and areas are changing, and where are the people who care the most and can do the most to help.”可知Richard認(rèn)為通過使用這些大數(shù)據(jù)方法，我們可以將我們的注意力轉(zhuǎn)向現(xiàn)代保護中的難題:哪些物種和地區(qū)正在發(fā)生變化，哪些人最關(guān)心這些問題，哪些人能夠提供最多的幫助。即他認(rèn)為這些搜索數(shù)據(jù)可以有助于設(shè)定保護目標(biāo)。故選A。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。5．犇犇Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have read. Stocky, slowmoving whale, rarely grows beyond 15 metres in length Flippers are a third of body length。 variable dorsal fin size and shape。 sawtoothed trailing edge on flukes, often raised when diving Bumpy tubercles on top of head Body colour is dark brown to black。 often extensive white on flippers and underside of body and flukes。 such patterns enable individual recognition Bushy blow, occasionally Vshaped 270400 olive baleen plates Humpback whales belong to the rorqual (groovethroated) family, which includes fin, sei, Bryde39。s, minke and blue whales. The big family migrate between winter tropical breeding areas (North West Shelf, Great Barrier Reef, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiii, Tonga) and summer Antarctic feeding areas. Once mon in New Zealand waters, humpbacks are now rarely seen and may migrate further offshore. Males pete for mates either by physical fight or by song. Females give birth to their young every two to three years。 some nonbreeding females probably remain in the southern waters during winter. Young humpback whales return to their area of birth but in later life some wander between breeding areas. Humpbacks eat small shrimps and other schooling prey, such as fish, forming small, cooperative groups of two to three individuals to feed. Similar species: Easily identifiable due to a 39。hump39。 back when submerging, but at a distance may be confused with other species that raise their flukes when diving, such as sperm, right and blue whales.
