Yesterday，Professor Wang gave us a lecture about how to survive in natural disasters.As we all know，natural disasters like floods，droughts，hurricanes，earthquakes and landslides can cause great loss which is hard to measure.With the increasing greenhouse effect，the climate is getting warmer and warmer and the ecology is damaged.So there would be more natural disasters.With the rainy season approaching，what should we do if we are suffering a horrible flood？He said first of all，whatever happens，we should stay calm and never be too frightened，or we will be trapped and miss the chance to escape.Secondly，pay close attention to the latest weather forecast and make full preparations.When a flood warning is issued，leave our home and attempt to head for higher ground at once.Thirdly，if we are outdoors，do not risk driving into flooded areas where we and our vehicle can be stuck quickly.Last，do keep in mind that nothing is more important than your life，so protecting yourself is a top priority.
昨天，王教授給我們做了一場關于如何在自然災害中生存的講座。眾所周知，洪水、旱災、颶風、地震和山體滑坡等自然災害會造成難以估量的巨大損失。隨著溫室效應的不斷加劇，我們的氣候變得越來越暖，生態環境也遭到了破壞。因此，自然災害會愈發頻繁。隨著雨季的臨近，如果我們遭遇了可怕的洪水，我們應該怎么辦呢？王教授說，首先，無論發生什么，我們都應保持冷靜，絕不能過于恐慌，否則就會陷入困境并錯失逃生機會。其次，要密切關注最新的天氣預報并做好充分準備。當發布洪水預警時，應立即離開住所，設法前往高地。再次，如果我們身處戶外，切勿冒險駛入洪水淹沒的區域，否則我們和車輛都會很快被困住。最后，務必記住，沒有什么比生命更重要，所以保護自己是最優先的事項。

A
We all experience the presence of wild animals in our daily lives，whether it is the song of a garden bird or the fish on our plate.It’s important to consider the key role that the surprising diversity(多樣性) of wild animals plays in our own survival.From the powerful whale to the small dung beetle，wild animals are all important pieces that make up life on the earth.
Wildlife helps most trees grow by spreading seeds，and they also help many of our food plants.They keep our forests strong，so they can hold a lot of carbon.A large number of animals move nutrients(養分) around in nature，which is good for industries like fisheries，and help prevent tipping points in places like the Amazon.Small animals underground，like soil helpers，make food grow better and stop flooding.
We risk our own survival if we lose these wild species.And it is not just important that they exist—their diversity is especially important.We need wildlife to interact with other animals and their habitats for effective ecological benefits.
Understanding the importance of wild animal species makes much sense.The 2024 Living Planet Report showed a 73% average drop in wild vertebrate species since 1970.The Nature’s Technicians report makes it clear why these falls are disastrous not only for wildlife but also for people.
These two reports arrived at just the right moment.Countries will have an important talk soon about how to stop and fix the damage to nature，discussing what each country should do and what help is needed worldwide，under the Convention on Biological Diversity.What more of a wake-up call do we need than understanding that the fall in wild animals is more serious than expected and that such results could threaten our food systems and economies
Let’s ensure that this international conference is remembered as the important moment when we come together for a better planet—for wildlife and people alike.

(2025·廣東廣州高一上期末)
The dodo is one of the most famous birds ever to have lived and also one of the most mysterious.Considered the first animal to die out due to human actions，it has been described as awkward and unintelligent.A new study is challenging this image，however.
The dodo，a flightless bird with a large，hooked beak(鳥喙)，lived on Mauritius，an island in the Indian Ocean.Adult dodos were up to about 3 feet tall and weighed up to 51 pounds，making them larger than a modern turkey.They likely ate fruits，nuts，and seeds from the forest floor and swallowed stones to break up food in their bodies，which some modern birds do as well.
Few dodo fossils or samples of soft tissue have been found，which means scientists haven’t been able to learn much else about them.To address that，a research team looked through 400 years of writing and scientific gatherings on the dodo.They concluded that the animal was probably not such an awkward bird after all.Written descriptions of live dodos suggested that the birds actually moved quickly.
The team also re-examined dodo fossils and remains and concluded that the bird had powerful tendons(肌腱) in its toes—just similar to modern birds that climb and run.This provided further evidence that the dodo was an active，speedy bird.“The birds were fast and，before being wiped out，had been doing their thing and doing it incredibly well for millions of years，” said Neil Gostling，an author of the recent study.
Scientists think dodos went extinct in the 1600s when Dutch sailors in Mauritius began hunting them.Dodos didn’t have predators on the island before that，so they weren’t afraid of humans and were easy to catch.This contributed to the idea that the birds were slow and not smart.However，scientists also know that sailors brought cats，dogs，and rats，which ate dodos’ chicks and damaged their habitat，helping to kill them off.
The research team’s work is just the beginning of a larger project aimed at finding out more about the ancient creature.“The mystery of the dodo bird is about to be cracked wide open，” said Markus Heler，another author of the study.
語篇解讀　本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了渡渡鳥是有史以來最著名的鳥類之一，也是最神秘的鳥類之一。渡渡鳥曾被人們認為是笨拙且不聰明的。但是，一項新的研究表明渡渡鳥是活躍且移動迅速的。
5．What was the traditional view of the dodo
A．It was a large and skilled flyer.
B．It was a clever and adaptable bird.
C．It moved slowly and appeared dull.
D．It shared habits with some modern birds.
答案　C
解析　細節理解題。根據第一段中的“Considered the first animal to die out due to human actions，it has been described as awkward and unintelligent.”可知，傳統觀點認為渡渡鳥移動緩慢且看起來愚笨，故選C。
6．How did the researchers gain more knowledge about the dodo
A．By studying a copy of dodo fossils and relics.
B．By analyzing the creature’s genetic structure.
C．By looking through old records and collections.
D．By watching behaviors of similar modern species.
答案　C
解析　細節理解題。根據第三段中的“To address that，a research team looked through 400 years of writing and scientific gatherings on the dodo.”可知，研究人員通過查看舊記錄和收藏來獲得有關渡渡鳥的更多知識，故選C。
7．What does the underlined word “predators” mean in paragraph 5
A．Friends. B．Hunters.
C．Neighbors. D．Competitors.
答案　B
解析　詞義猜測題。根據畫線單詞所在句子“Dodos didn’t have predators on the island before that，so they weren’t afraid of humans and were easy to catch.”可知，在荷蘭水手開始獵殺它們之前，因為島上沒有它們的捕獵者，所以渡渡鳥不懼怕人類，因而容易被捕捉，畫線單詞意為“捕獵者”，故選B。
8．What is the next goal of the research team’s work
A．To better protect bird species.
B．To gain a deeper understanding of dodos.
C．To correct former research findings.
D．To uncover the secrets to dodos’ extinction.
答案　B
解析　推理判斷題。根據最后一段中“The research team’s work is just the beginning of a larger project aimed at finding out more about the ancient creature.‘The mystery of the dodo bird is about to be cracked wide open，’said...”可推知，研究小組接下來的工作目標是更加深入了解渡渡鳥，故選B。

Ⅲ.主題語篇閱讀

We all experience the presence of wild animals in our daily lives，whether it is the song of a garden bird or the fish on our plate.It’s important to consider the key role that the surprising diversity(多樣性) of wild animals plays in our own survival.From the powerful whale to the small dung beetle，wild animals are all important pieces that make up life on the earth.
語篇解讀　本文是一篇議論文。文章論述了野生動物多樣性對人類生存的重要性，指出物種數量下降的現狀及危害，呼吁各國通過國際會議共同努力保護野生動物。
Wildlife helps most trees grow by spreading seeds，and they also help many of our food plants.They keep our forests strong，so they can hold a lot of carbon.A large number of animals move nutrients(養分) around in nature，which is good for industries like fisheries，and help prevent tipping points in places like the Amazon.Small animals underground，like soil helpers，make food grow better and stop flooding.
We risk our own survival if we lose these wild species.And it is not just important that they exist—their diversity is especially important.We need wildlife to interact with other animals and their habitats for effective ecological benefits.
Understanding the importance of wild animal species makes much sense.The 2024 Living Planet Report showed a 73% average drop in wild vertebrate species since 1970.The Nature’s Technicians report makes it clear why these falls are disastrous not only for wildlife but also for people.
These two reports arrived at just the right moment.Countries will have an important talk soon about how to stop and fix the damage to nature，discussing what each country should do and what help is needed worldwide，under the Convention on Biological Diversity.What more of a wake-up call do we need than understanding that the fall in wild animals is more serious than expected and that such results could threaten our food systems and economies
Let’s ensure that this international conference is remembered as the important moment when we come together for a better planet—for wildlife and people alike.

The dodo is one of the most famous birds ever to have lived and also one of the most mysterious.Considered the first animal to die out due to human actions，it has been described as awkward and unintelligent.A new study is challenging this image，however.
語篇解讀　本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了渡渡鳥是有史以來最著名的鳥類之一，也是最神秘的鳥類之一。渡渡鳥曾被人們認為是笨拙且不聰明的。但是，一項新的研究表明渡渡鳥是活躍且移動迅速的。
The dodo，a flightless bird with a large，hooked beak(鳥喙)，lived on Mauritius，an island in the Indian Ocean.Adult dodos were up to about 3 feet tall and weighed up to 51 pounds，making them larger than a modern turkey.They likely ate fruits，nuts，and seeds from the forest floor and swallowed stones to break up food in their bodies，which some modern birds do as well.
Few dodo fossils or samples of soft tissue have been found，which means scientists haven’t been able to learn much else about them.To address that，a research team looked through 400 years of writing and scientific gatherings on the dodo.They concluded that the animal was probably not such an awkward bird after all.Written descriptions of live dodos suggested that the birds actually moved quickly.
The team also re-examined dodo fossils and remains and concluded that the bird had powerful tendons(肌腱) in its toes—just similar to modern birds that climb and run.This provided further evidence that the dodo was an active，speedy bird.“The birds were fast and，before being wiped out，had been doing their thing and doing it incredibly well for millions of years，” said Neil Gostling，an author of the recent study.
Scientists think dodos went extinct in the 1600s when Dutch sailors in Mauritius began hunting them.Dodos didn’t have predators on the island before that，so they weren’t afraid of humans and were easy to catch. This contributed to the idea that the birds were slow and not smart.However，scientists also know that sailors brought cats，dogs，and rats，which ate dodos’ chicks and damaged their habitat，helping to kill them off.
The research team’s work is just the beginning of a larger project aimed at finding out more about the ancient creature.“The mystery of the dodo bird is about to be cracked wide open，” said Markus Heler，another author of the study.
5.What was the traditional view of the dodo
A.It was a large and skilled flyer.
B.It was a clever and adaptable bird.
C.It moved slowly and appeared dull.
D.It shared habits with some modern birds.
√
細節理解題。根據第一段中的“Considered the first animal to die out due to human actions，it has been described as awkward and unintelligent.”可知，傳統觀點認為渡渡鳥移動緩慢且看起來愚笨，故選C。
解析
6.How did the researchers gain more knowledge about the dodo
A.By studying a copy of dodo fossils and relics.
B.By analyzing the creature’s genetic structure.
C.By looking through old records and collections.
D.By watching behaviors of similar modern species.
√
細節理解題。根據第三段中的“To address that，a research team looked through 400 years of writing and scientific gatherings on the dodo.”可知，研究人員通過查看舊記錄和收藏來獲得有關渡渡鳥的更多知識，故選C。
解析
7.What does the underlined word “predators” mean in paragraph 5
A.Friends. B.Hunters.
C.Neighbors. D.Competitors.
√
詞義猜測題。根據畫線單詞所在句子“Dodos didn’t have predators on the island before that，so they weren’t afraid of humans and were easy to catch.”可知，在荷蘭水手開始獵殺它們之前，因為島上沒有它們的捕獵者，所以渡渡鳥不懼怕人類，因而容易被捕捉，畫線單詞意為“捕獵者”，故選B。
解析
8.What is the next goal of the research team’s work
A.To better protect bird species.
B.To gain a deeper understanding of dodos.
C.To correct former research findings.
D.To uncover the secrets to dodos’ extinction.
√
推理判斷題。根據最后一段中“The research team’s work is just the beginning of a larger project aimed at finding out more about the ancient creature.‘The mystery of the dodo bird is about to be cracked wide open，’said...”可推知，研究小組接下來的工作目標是更加深入了解渡渡鳥，故選B。
