And they tend to agree that humans are the main cause.＂可知，科學家認為人類是第六次大規(guī)模物種滅絕的主要原因，沒有不同意見，因此D錯誤，因此選A。但是，各個科學家對過去物種滅絕原因有著不同的看法，即便是最近的一次小規(guī)模物種滅絕——大型動物滅絕，有關的滅絕原因，科學家仍在爭論。D.Huge animals.B.Land animals.D.By the 22nd century, there will probably be about five million on this planet.C.99% of species will not be around any more by 2100.D.It means a global decline over a long time.C.Humans are the main cause of it.

And they tend to agree that humans are the main cause. There might be as many as 10 million species of plex life on this planet today —— a huge number. But add up all of the plex species that ever lived and some biologists think the grand total would be about five billion. The estimate leads to an astonishing conclusion: a staggering 99% of species are not around any more. They have been driven to extinction. 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和推理判斷三個題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，考生需要準確掌握細節(jié)信息，并根據上下文的邏輯關系，進行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。由此可知，Languell很勇敢；根據最后一段中For his heroic action, Languell was added to the list of reallife heroes changing the world.(因為他的英勇行為，朗格爾被列入了現實生活中改變世界的英雄名單可推知，Languell的行為很高尚。s seat belt.
