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。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心自然,以及哪些物種和地區(qū)可能是最有效的保護目標。 (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,哪些人最關心這些問題,哪些人能夠提供最多的幫助。即他認為這些搜索數(shù)據(jù)可以有助于設定保護目標。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)信息的基礎上,根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。5.犇犇閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中,選出最佳選項。 When hospital staff are in full scrubs (手術衣), their faces are almost pletely covered by their caps and face masks, and we can only see their eyes and eyebrows. In order to solve the problem, a doctor in Sydney, Australia, called Rob Hackett launched a campaign named Theatre (手術室) Cap Challengeencourage hospital staffs to write their39。 names and roles on their caps. At first, his colleagues didn39。t take it seriously. However, with time going on, it has been adopted around the world with studies from the US and UK reporting how this simple idea can decrease human errors in healthcare. I went to a theatre where there were about 20 doctors and nurses in the room, Dr. Rob Hackett said. I struggled to even ask to be passed some gloves because the person I was pointing to thought I was pointing to the person behind them, because I don39。t know their names. said Rob. As we all know, doctors are a stressful profession. When faced with life and death, they need to save the patient39。s life for a second. At the moment, effective munications are important. The 39。Theatre Cap Challenge39。 is in response to concerns about how easily avoidable mistakes and poor munication are contributing to rising harmful events for our patients. said Rob. We need to develop systems which reduce mistakes and misunderstanding without causing harm. For this to happen, we need to let everyone know we39。re human. he added On the other hand, from the patients39。 viewpoint, caps with names on them can make patients more unworried. When everyone appears the same, it is extremely difficult to distinguish who is who. Knowing them relaxed.(1)What can we learn from paragraph 1? A.Hospital staff are asked to cover their faces in hospitals.B.Rob is in favor of writing names and roles on caps.C.Rob wanted to be a professional doctor.D.Rob39。s idea can increase human errors in healthcare.(2)What can we know about the Theatre Cap Challenge from the text?
