One year after WildAid started its new program to protect ocean wildlife in China, Chinese world－famous pianist Lang Lang has joined the latest public campaign (運動), “Play Your Part in the Oceans Symphony” on Friday.
The campaign video public service announcement (PSA) impressed the public with Lang Lang playing his song “Stay”， greatly calling attention to the beauty and importance of protecting the marine life in China’s waters such as whale sharks, sea turtles, dolphins and spotted seals.
A new series of messages calls on the public to help protect marine biodiversity (生物多樣性) by supporting marine protected areas (MPAs) and the protection of ocean wildlife.The campaign video PSA and billboards, which will be displayed across China, were released (發布) at a Beijing press event hosted by WildAid, with China Green Carbon Foundation and the First Institute of Oceanography (FIO) of the Ministry of Natural Resources as key partners.
Ranked among “the world’s 100 most influential people” by Time magazine, Lang Lang has served as WildAid ambassador for more than 12 years and contributed to protecting endangered wildlife and nature.Speaking at the event he said, “we can all play our part in protecting our oceans by taking simple steps, such as refusing to eat endangered wildlife such as sea turtles, reporting illegal wildlife trade, and reducing the use of single－use plastics.”
WildAid also designed online activities for this campaign in which Lang Lang invites users to re－create his song “Stay” through the two most popular social platforms in China: Weibo and Tik Tok.
Lang Lang joined this campaign following a survey report conducted by WildAid and FIO that discusses public awareness of MPAs and marine biodiversity in China.
The report finds that more than 80% of the survey takers believe that MPAs are very important, but their understanding of the functions of MPAs is low.More than half do not know the term “marine biodiversity” and have not received enough information about marine protection.
“Play Your Part in the Oceans Symphony” campaign PSA and billboards will be given out at outdoor places across China, reaching millions of viewers.
【語篇解讀】　本文是新聞報道。文章主要報道中國著名鋼琴家郎朗于周五加入了最新的公眾活動“在海洋交響曲中發揮你的作用”。
1.What is the purpose of the latest PSA of WildAid
A.To show the special beauty of marine life in China’s waters.
B.To stress the importance of protecting China’s ocean wildlife.
C.To call on the public to support marine protected areas (MPAs).
D.To invite world－famous pianist Lang Lang to join the campaign.
解析　細節理解題。由文章第二段“The campaign video public service announcement (PSA) impressed the public...such as whale sharks, sea turtles, dolphins and spotted seals.”可知，最新PSA的目的是強調保護中國海洋野生動物的重要性。
√
2.What does Lang Lang ask people to do to protect the ocean life
A.Report illegal wildlife hunting to FIO.
B.Stop eating endangered wildlife.
C.Recreate his song “Stay” on line.
D.Call on friends to join the campaign.
解析　細節理解題。由文章第四段“we can all play our part in protecting our oceans...and reducing the use of single－use plastics.”可知，郎朗要求人們停止食用瀕危野生動物以保護海洋生物。
√
3.What is one of the findings of the survey report
A.Lots of Chinese do not clearly know how to protect the ocean life.
B.The Chinese public would like to help protect marine biodiversity.
C.The Chinese public awareness of marine biodiversity should be raised.
D.Weibo and Tik Tok are the two most popular social platforms in China.
解析　推理判斷題。由文章倒數第二段“The report finds that more than 80% of the survey...and have not received enough information about marine protection.”可推知，許多中國人不清楚如何保護海洋生物。
√
4.Which of the following best describes the campaign PSA
A.Interesting. B.Demanding.
C.Beneficial. D.Enjoyable.

In the summer months, fireflies (螢火蟲) become lively, starting their “love stories”.Male fireflies fly around and a part of their belly (腹部) will light up.Then females sitting on the ground look up at the show and flash back to the males they like.They’re not going to mate (交配) unless they’ve exchanged these light signals (信號).
Firefly species have performed that for millions of years, lit only by the moon.Now humans are damaging their feelings, turning on street lights and LEDs at the fireflies’ summer party.
In the firefly world, it’s the females who are particularly turned off by man－made light.Owens, a researcher at Harvard University, led studies in experimental conditions and field conditions and found that male fireflies often keep flashing (閃光) under street lights and other kinds of overhead light, while female fireflies, active at night, basically shut down and stop reacting.
“Probably because they just can’t see the males very well，” Owens explained.“Typically male fireflies are looking down.Female fireflies are looking up at street lights and other light sources.”In lab conditions, not one of 20 pairs mated successfully under bright lights, while about half of firefly couples mated successfully in natural dim light.
In the last decade, the night sky became twice as bright due to the increasing use of LEDs, Owens said, which hurts the populations of fireflies. Sadly, no fireflies are protected under the Endangered Species Act presently.
“I like people to think about firefly extinction (滅絕) as sitting in a room of candles, and it’s beautiful，” said Sara Lewis, a professor of biology at Tufts University.“And if one or two of those candles went out, you probably don’t even notice it, but if that continues, eventually you are left sitting in complete darkness.”
【語篇解讀】　本文是說明文。文章主要講述了人類對螢火蟲生活環境的干擾以及對螢火蟲種群的影響。
5.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to
A.Exchanging light signals of love. B.Telling their love stories.
C.Mating and raising babies. D.Holding summer parties.
解析　代詞指代題。根據第一段的“Then females sitting on the ground...exchanged these light signals(信號).”可知，螢火蟲只有在交換表達愛意的光信號后才會交配；根據第二段中畫線詞所在句的“Firefly species have performed...the fireflies’ summer party.”可知，人造光源的出現給螢火蟲的交配帶來了不利的影響，而在以往月光沒有影響螢火蟲的交配，即它們交換表達愛意的光信號這種行為已經有很久的歷史了。
√
6.What is a serious danger of man－made light to fireflies
A.It makes the female blind.
B.It stops the female from reacting.
C.It causes them to get lost.
D.It forces the male to shut off.
解析　細節理解題。根據第三段的“In the firefly world, it’s the females who are particularly turned off...basically shut down and stop reacting.”可知，在路燈和其他頂燈下，在夜間活動的雌性螢火蟲，基本上不會活動并停止做出反應；由此可知，人造光對螢火蟲的嚴重危害在于它阻止了雌性做出反應。
√
7.What influences the success of firefly mating according to the research
A.The size of male and female.
B.The male and female mating time.
C.The brightness of surrounding light.
D.The number of firefly couples.
解析　推理判斷題。根據第四段的“In lab conditions, not one of 20 pairs mated successfully...in natural dim light.”可知，影響螢火蟲交配成功的因素是周圍光線的亮度。
√
8.What does Sara Lewis say about the firefly extinction
A.It will surely happen eventually.
B.It produces a beautiful story.
C.It will come if nothing is done.
D.It happens in a room of candles.
解析　推理判斷題。根據最后一段的“I like people to think about firefly extinction...eventually you are left sitting in complete darkness.”可知，Sara Lewis認為如果不采取任何措施的話，螢火蟲最終可能會滅絕。
√
Ⅱ.七選五
One great way to spend time outdoors is to garden.Here are some benefits you can get from gardening.
__1__
Studies have found evidence that being in nature is linked with less anxiety, less depression and many other positive effects.The nice thing about a garden is that it can be right in your yard.__2__， you’re much more likely to be outside when the work of a garden requires it.
Eat healthfully
A garden can make the freshest and healthiest foods available.And the types of foods can have a great impact on your mental health.__3__.
Practice acceptance
Most suffering comes from trying to control things that you can’t.The more you can accept the limits of your control in your life, the more peace of mind you can find—and gardening is a great way to practice.__4__.You just bring your best efforts to what you can control, and let go of the rest.
Develop a growth mindset (思維模式)
Psychologist Carol Dweck developed the difference between “fixed” and “growth” mindsets, and gardening is a great opportunity to develop the latter.__5__.When something doesn’t work out the way you hoped, you view it as a learning opportunity rather than as a failure.
A.If you like healthy food
B.Spend more time in nature
C.While you spend time sitting in your yard
D.With a growth mindset, we’re constantly learning
E.Acceptance in the garden or elsewhere doesn’t mean giving up
F.Studies shows that diet changes can be helpful for depression

【語篇解讀】　本文是說明文。文章介紹了做園藝活動帶來的益處。
1.B　[分析文章結構可知設空處為小標題；根據下文“Studies have found evidence...right in your yard.”以及“you’re much more likely to be outside when the work of a garden requires it.”可知，本段說明花園就在自己的院子里，做園藝活動就會在戶外、能夠有更多時間接觸自然，而這有助于減少焦慮與抑郁；B選項能夠概括本段主旨，適合作為本段小標題。]
2.C　[上文“The nice thing about a garden is that it can be right in your yard.”以及下文“you’re much more likely to be outside when the work of a garden requires it.”指出花園的好處在于就在院子里，花園里需要干的工作會讓你更可能待在戶外；C選項符合語境，“sitting in your yard”承接上文的“in your yard”。]

4.E　[上文“The more you can accept...gardening is a great way to practice.”指出干園藝活是一種很好的練習接受生活中控制的極限，找到內心的平靜的方式；E選項承接上文，指出在花園或其他地方接受現狀并不意味著放棄；下文“You just bring...let go of the rest.”承接E選項，說明無論是在園藝上還是在其他方面只需要盡你最大的努力去控制你能控制的事情；選項中的“Acceptance”與標題相呼應。]
5.D　[上文“Psychologist Carol Dweck developed the difference...is a great opportunity to develop the latter.”指出園藝是發展成長型思維模式的絕佳機會；D選項承接上文，指出有了成長的心態，我們就能不斷地學習，符合語境。]

UNIT 2　WILDLIFE PROTECTION
Ⅰ.閱讀理解
A
You may be attracted by pictures of animals in the wild.You might have imagined yourself taking pictures of animals that are seldom seen in the city.If you do get that chance, you may want to consider the following tips or rules.
First of all, a lot of professional photographers give respect (尊重) to these animals and the environment they are in.Just remember that you should respect the animals and the environment in case these animals bite or attack you.
Keep in mind that you are taking pictures of real, live, wild animals.A wild animal may bite to protect itself.You must be aware while taking their pictures and be gentle in all your movements.Do not feed the animals, or interact (互動) with animals that are sleeping or caring for their young.
Change the flash of your camera to natural light, so the animals will not be frightened or surprised when you start shooting.Animals do not react well when they are surprised.Be very patient.Make sure you are aware of the changes in behavior of the animal and its emotions.Be familiar with the animals’ natural habitat.
Now if those rules are clear, it is time for planning.Consider the weather；some animals do not go out when it is raining while some animals love the rain.Therefore, a little research on the weather will not hurt.You should consider taking pictures after sunrise and before sunset.Now if the animal is active at night, then you should prepare to fight against not only the wild but also the darkness.
An adventure in the wild will make you very excited.However, you should be well prepared, have experts to back you up, and also a permit (許可證) for doing the photo shoot.If you do not have any of these, then maybe you should consider visiting the zoo instead.
【語篇解讀】　本文是說明文。文章主要是告訴大家在給野生動物拍照時應該注意的問題。
1.What should you do to show respect to the wildlife
A.Turning off the flash.
B.Caring for their babies.
C.Feeding them whenever you want.
D.Interacting with them when they are sleeping.
解析　細節理解題。根據第四段中“Change the flash of your camera...start shooting.”可知，給動物拍照時，關掉閃光燈，這樣當你開始拍攝時，動物就不會被嚇到或驚訝了。
√
2.What should you consider before taking pictures with the wildlife
A.Food and water.
B.Weather and time.
C.Emotions and safety.
D.Place and transportation.
解析　細節理解題。根據倒數第二段中“Consider the weather；some animals do not go out...not only the wild but also the darkness.”可知，要拍攝動物的照片，提前考慮天氣和拍照時間是必要的。
√
3.What can we infer from the last paragraph
A.Most animals love being taken photos of.
B.We have to go to the zoo to take photos.
C.Only experts have a permit to take photos.
D.There is danger while taking photos with wild animals.
解析　推理判斷題。根據最后一段“An adventure in the wild will make you very excited...then maybe you should consider visiting the zoo instead.”可知，野外探險會讓你非常興奮。然而，你應該做好充分的準備，要有專家做支持，而且要得到拍照的許可證。可推知，給野生動物拍照會有危險。
√
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A.To advertise a zoo.
B.To do some research.
C.To give some advice.
D.To introduce some wildlife.
解析　寫作意圖題。根據第一段“You may be attracted by pictures of animals in the wild...you may want to consider the following tips or rules.”并結合全文可知，本文主要是告訴大家在給野生動物拍照時應該注意的問題。因而，本文的寫作目的是給大家一些建議。
√
B
Tariq Qaiser, an architect, is trying to protect mangroves (紅樹林).The trees could save Pakistan’s largest city Karachi, sitting on the Arabian Sea, from natural disaster.He comes to Bundal Island several times a week to document the illegal cutting of mangrove trees.Very often, “You can’t hear a single bird because the chain saws (鋸) are so loud.The trees are cut down illegally for firewood，” he says, shaking his head.Besides, developers clear the mangroves to make room for construction.
Karachi has a hot climate, and its concrete buildings and paved roads make it even hotter.Offshore, there are islands where mangroves grow.They could be the key to slowing climate change.Mangrove forests pull carbon dioxide out of the air, holding four times as much of the planet－warming gas as other forests can.They support diverse ecosystems.As sea levels rise with global warming, the trees could play a big role in protecting coastal cities like Karachi from flooding.Karachi’s mangroves are disappearing.But its numbers are rising in other parts of Pakistan.With replanting efforts, the country has tripled (使成為三倍) its mangrove coverage over the past 30 years.
Qaiser’s work may have worked.Recently, a court in Karachi declared Bundal Island’s mangroves to be protected forests.But unforested parts of the island remain unprotected, and developers want to build there.City officials say this could provide much－needed housing and bring in billions of dollars.They claim that some of that money could be used to plant mangroves in other parts of Pakistan.
Ecologist Rafiul Haq appreciates Qaiser’s “extraordinary work” educating the public about mangroves.But he wishes Qaiser would look at the bigger picture.“Only 7% of Pakistan’s mangroves are in Karachi，” Haq says.He thinks it’s wrong to focus on the losses in 7% of the country while ignoring the success in 93% of it.But Qaiser believes it’s important to protect every bit.
【語篇解讀】　本文是說明文。文章主要介紹了巴基斯坦卡拉奇紅樹林的重要性及保護措施。
5.What do we know about Karachi’s mangroves
A.They occupy the building land.
B.They’re home to various birds.
C.They’re primarily being used as firewood.
D.They protect the city from climate disasters.
解析　細節理解題。根據第一段第二句“The trees could save Pakistan’s largest city Karachi, sitting on the Arabian Sea, from natural disaster.”可知，卡拉奇的紅樹林保護城市免受氣候災難。
√
6.Why are efforts made to preserve the mangrove trees
A.Their birthplaces meet crisis.
B.They boast huge diversity.
C.Their bonds with nature are close.
D.They grow at a rapid speed.
解析　推理判斷題。根據第二段“Offshore, there are islands where mangroves grow...cities like Karachi from flooding.”可知，紅樹林減緩氣候變化，且能吸收很多的二氧化碳，在很多方面保護著城市。由此推知，人們努力保護紅樹林，因為它們與自然關系密切。
√
7.What does the Karachi government plan to do
A.Grow mangroves in other areas.
B.Destroy buildings to grow mangroves.
C.Build more mangrove reserves.
D.Use mangroves to make profit.
解析　細節理解題。根據第三段最后兩句“City officials say this could provide much－needed housing...could be used to plant mangroves in other parts of Pakistan.”可知，卡拉奇政府計劃在其他地區種植紅樹林。
√
8.What does Haq think of Qaiser’s work on Karachi’s mangroves
A.Challenging. B.Effective.
C.Significant. D.Partial.
解析　推理判斷題。根據最后一段“Ecologist Rafiul Haq appreciates...But Qaiser believes it’s important to protect every bit.”可知，Haq認為要有整體意識，不能只關注到失敗的而不關注成功的方面，但Qaiser認為就算是再小的區域都要兼顧到。由此推知，Haq認為Qaiser對于卡拉奇紅樹林工作成果的認識是片面的，不全面的。

【大題提能】
Ⅰ.閱讀理解
As humans encroach (侵入) more and more on wildlife habitats, animals are finding that the best way to survive isn’t to pack up and move—it’s to adapt to the night life.A variety of previously daytime animals such as foxes, deer and boars have become active at night to avoid human activity out of fear.But this nighttime switch comes with its own risks.
Researchers looked at how 62 species of animals on six continents changed their behavior in response to human activities such as hunting, farming, and development.The studies employed various technologies to follow the animals, from GPS trackers to motion－activated cameras.
Once night falls, the animals surveyed became far more active than they were before humans arrived, hunting and looking for food in the dark.For example, animals that used to split their activity evenly between day and night typically increased their nighttime activity to 68%.
The team also found the animals responded similarly to these human encroachments, regardless of whether human activity directly affected them.So, a deer might become more active at night simply because it sees humans hiking nearby, not because it’s being hunted.
The researchers believe these nighttime behaviors not only allow humans and animals to coexist more peacefully, they may be able to give us hints as to how to plan conservation efforts accordingly, such as limiting human activity during times when a specific species is more active.But moving to the nightlife could also have downsides for these animals.A nighttime lifestyle can reduce an animal’s ability to hunt and find food successfully and can even affect its ability to find a mate.Switching to a nighttime lifestyle can affect natural patterns of life even if these animals are doing so to reduce their interaction with humans.So, just because animals are becoming more active at night doesn’t mean they’ve escaped the influence of humans.
【語篇解讀】　本文是說明文。文章主要介紹了隨著人類越來越多地侵入野生動物棲息地，動物們發現生存的最佳方式不是收拾行李搬家，而是要適應夜間生活。
1.Why are animals becoming more active at night
A.It is easier to find food at night.
B.It is easier to escape being hunted.
C.They can be less affected by human.
D.They have got used to nightlife.
解析　細節理解題。根據文章第一段“A variety of previously daytime animals...to avoid human activity out of fear.”可知，動物在夜間變得更加活躍的原因是此時它們受人類的影響較小。
√
2.How did the researchers find the animals’ behavioral changes
A.They followed and watched the animals.
B.They used modern technologies.
C.They compared different animals.
D.They found more animals at night.
解析　細節理解題。根據文章第二段“The studies employed various technologies to follow the animals, from GPS trackers to motion－activated cameras.”可知，研究人員使用現代技術發現這些動物的行為變化。
√
3.What can we infer from the fourth paragraph
A.Any human encroachment can affect animals.
B.Animals can be affected only when being hunted.
C.Deer can get used to nightlife easily.
D.Animals should stay away from humans.
解析　推理判斷題。根據文章第四段“The team also found the animals responded similarly to these human encroachments, regardless of whether human activity directly affected them.”可知，任何人類的侵犯都會影響動物。
√
4.Which word can possibly replace the underlined word “downsides” in paragraph 5
A.Dangers. B.Strengths.
C.Possibilities. D.Disadvantages.
解析　詞義猜測題。由文章最后一段“But moving to the nightlife could also have downsides...to reduce their interaction with humans.”可知，這里主要講夜間生活給動物帶來的“不利”，所以猜測downsides表“不利或者劣勢”。
√
Ⅱ.七選五
All living things need energy to move and grow.Energy can come in many different forms.__1__ While energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it can be converted (轉換) between different forms.
Where do plants get their energy They get their energy from the sun.Plants absorb sunlight with their leaves.__2__ This chemical process is called photosynthesis.Photosynthesis means, “making out of light”.The energy from the sun, light energy, is converted into chemical energy through photosynthesis.
Plants are called producers because they produce their own food.Producers form the base of every food chain in an ecosystem.Plants are eaten by animals, which are eaten by larger animals.For example, a plant takes in energy from the sun and turns it into plant food.__3__ Then, a human eats the rabbit.The energy the human gets from the food was originally energy from the sun!
The food humans eat provides us with energy.When we chew and digest food, a chemical reaction takes place.__4__ We require energy from food for basic functions, like moving and breathing.Energy from food also helps our body repair itself and stay warm.
__5__ Whole foods (天然食品), like kale, contain lots of important nutrients, such as calcium (鈣) and potassium (鉀).Sugary foods, like candy, do not contain as many nutrients.Whole foods can provide us with enough energy over long periods of time.So are you more energized throughout the day
A.The energy produced from this reaction fuels our bodies.
B.That plant might be eaten by a rabbit, giving the rabbit energy.
C.Notice how you feel when you eat whole foods like vegetables and fruits.
D.Through this process, energy from the sun is moved from one living thing to another.
E.They use the sun’s energy to change water and carbon dioxide into plant food and oxygen.
F.The amount of energy we get from food depends on which nutrients are in the food we eat.
G.For example, light energy, heat energy, and chemical energy are all different forms of energy.
【語篇解讀】　本文是說明文。文章主要介紹了能量的來源和作用，以及植物、動物和人類如何獲取和利用能量。
1.G　[上文“Energy can come in many different forms.”提出能量有多種形式，G項舉例說明能量有哪些形式，上下文語意連貫。]
2.E　[下文“This chemical process is called photosynthesis.”提出光合作用的概念，根據句中“This chemical process”可知，上文會講到光合作用。結合常識，E項正是光合作用的過程，且句中“the sun’s energy”照應上文中“Plants absorb sunlight”。]
3.B　[根據下文“Then, a human eats the rabbit.”中“the rabbit”是特指，可推知設空句中會提到兔子，只有B項提到下文出現的兔子，指代關系成立。]
4.A　[下文“We require energy from food for basic functions, like moving and breathing.Energy from food also helps our body repair itself and stay warm.”指出從食物中獲取能量的作用，是對A項的解釋說明，且句中“this reaction”照應上文中“a chemical reaction takes place”。]
5.F　[下文“Whole foods (天然食品), like kale, contain lots of important nutrients...over long periods of time.”舉例說明了不同食物中的不同營養物質，是對F項的舉例說明。]
