Diets have changed in China — and so too has its top crop. Since 2011, the country 66(growmore corn than rice. Corn production has jumped nearly 125 percent over 67 past 25 years, while rice has increased only 7 percent.

A taste for meat is 68 (actual) behind the change: An important part of its corn is used to feed chickens, pigs, and cattle. Another reason for corn's rise: The government encourages farmers to grow corn instead of rice 69 (improve) water quality. Corn uses less water 70 rice and creates less fertilizer(化肥) runoff. This switch has decreased 71 (pollute) in the country's major lakes and reservoirs and made drinking water safer for people.

According to the World Bank, China accounts for about 30 percent of total 72 (globe)fertilizer consumption. The Chinese Ministry of Agriculture finds that between 2005—when the government 73 (start) a soil-testing program 74 gives specific fertilizer recommendations to farmers - and 2011, fertilizer use dropped by 7.7 million tons. That prevented the emission(排放) of 51.8 million tons of carbon dioxide. China's approach to protecting its environment while 75 (feed) its citizens "offers useful lessons for agriculture and food policymakers worldwide." says the bank's Juergen Voegele.

【分析】

本文是一篇说明文。文中讲述了中国为保护环境在农作物种植上做了一些变化并得到了世界上的知名认识的认可。

66考查时态。since加时间点,主句要用现在完成时。句意:2011年以来,中国种植的玉米比水稻多。故填has grown。

67考查冠词。句意:玉米产量在过去25年里增长了近125%,而大米只增长了7%。故是特指在过去的25年里。故填the。

68考查副词。句意:对肉的需求实际上是这种变化的背后原因。句子结构完整,用副词修饰句子。故填actually。

69考查非谓语动词。句意:为了改善水质政府鼓励农民种植玉米而不是大米。没有连词可以且谓语动词是encourages,故improve应该用非谓语动词。此处表示目的,故用不定式。故填to improve。

70考查连词。句意:玉米比大米使用的水更少。根据关键词less可知,填比较连词。故填than。

71考查词性转换。句意:这一转变减少了中国较大的湖泊和水库的污染,使人们的饮用水更加安全。has decreased后跟名词作宾语,故填pollution。

72考查词性转换。句意:中国约占全球化肥总消费量的30%。fertilizer consumption是名词短语,故应该用形容词修饰。故填global。

73考查谓语动词。句意:在2005年政府开始了一项土壤测试项目。本句是when引导的定语从句,由于时间是2005年,故用过去时。故填started。

74考查定语从句关系词。根据空后的谓语动词gives可知,该空缺少主语,指代program并且引导后面的句子。指物用that/which,故填that或者which。

75考查省略句。句意:中国在养活了中国人民的同时又保护了环境。这一做法为全世界的农业和粮食政策制定人提供了很有用的经验。空格处表示正在进行的动作,while后面省略掉了China is,省略句的原则:在时间状语从句、条件状语从句、,让步状语从句中,如果从句的主语和主句的主语一致且含有be动词时,那么可以把主语和be动词一块省略。故填feeding。

点睛: 两个破折号中间只有一个定语从句,破折号中间的所有内容起到解释说明作用,本题中的是状语成分,when引导的是一个时间状语从句,状语从句中含有一个含空的定语从句。由于从句中须有一个谓语动词所以小题9看句意用过去时。

    What’s the deadliest animal? Trick question. Sure, the shark in Jaws is terrifying but you’re way more likely to be killed by the animals you see every day. That’s according to a study published in February in the journal Wilderness & Environmental Medicine.

Don’t Sweat the Scary Stuff

The study looked at mortality data in the United States from 2008 to 2015 and compared the number of deaths caused by animals to a 2012 study that looked at the same elements in prior years. In this new study, researchers found a total of 1,610 animal-related deaths in the U.S., including deaths as a result of bites, contact, attack, or envenomation (venom injection). The majority of those deaths were related to nonvenomous animals, coming out to about 2.8 deaths per million people.

Surprisingly, most of the fatalities they found weren’t related to wild animal attacks: The largest proportion of animal deaths were caused by large mammals, especially horses and cattle. According to a press release, other studies have found that most of these deaths occur on the farm, and accidents with horses and cattle account for a whopping 90 percent of farm accidents.

The next largest group of animal-related fatalities were caused by a group called Hymenoptera, or hornets, wasps, and bees, accounting for just under 30 percent of the reported fatalities. According to the press release, “Africanized” honeybees, which are found most often in the southern and western U.S., can be particularly lethal when they swarm.

The third largest group? Man’s best friend: dogrelated fatalities occurred at a rate of about 4.6 deaths per 10 million people. The study showed that young children are most vulnerable: The rate of children under age four killed by dogs was twice as high as the next most vulnerable age group, people older than 65, and four times as high as other age groups.

“The most common animalrelated fatalities are from large mammals, like cattle or horses, but when you’re looking at attacks from wild animals only, the most common cause of death are due to venomous animals, like wasps or bees,” lead investigator Dr. Jared A.Forrester told CNN in an interview about the 2012 study. “I think people have in their mind that the most dangerous animals are cougars, bears or alligators, but a bee is more dangerous if a person is sensitive to its poisoning components.”

Protect Yourself

So how can you minimize your risk? Part of it may be due to your location and age group: the 2012 study found that people in the South experienced about 47 percent of all animal-related attacks in the U.S., Dr. Christopher Holstege, one of the authors, told CNN. In addition, infants and young children up to four years of age are most vulnerable, he saidespecially when it comes to dog bites.

Researchers recommend more public health initiatives and awareness to help prevent farm fatalities. As for bees and hornets, it helps to be aware of your allergies, carry an EpiPen, and try to avoid provoking bees. As far as dogs go, your best bet is to not leave them alone with the very young or the very old.

But still, there isn’t too much reason to worry. “In many ways, the data is pretty reassuring,” Forrester told CNN. “The most common cause of death are not the scariest things, necessarily, but they are the most common interactions we have with farm animals and they are preventable.”

41What’s the function of the “shark in Jaws” mentioned in paragraph one?

ATo attract readers’ attention and introduce the topic.

BTo explain to readers the danger of sharks.

CTo compare sharks with animals that are dangerous around our daily life.

DTo highlight the unnoticed danger of animals in everyday life.

42What’s the underlined word “venomous” mean?

Asmall                     Bpoisonous               Cdangerous               Ddevil

43What can we learn from the article?

ABees are the most dangerous insects you may ever encounter.

BPeople who are allergic to bees can hardly survive if they’re not treated immediately.

CThere is no worry about the danger of daily animals.

DPeople in the South experienced nearly half of animal attacks in the U.S.

44What may be the best title of the article?

AThe deadliest animal in your life.                BThe danger of small insects.

CThe ignored killers.                                    DNew risk of being killed by small animals.

  Every year about 40,000 people attempt to climb Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. They    41    with them lots of waste. The    42    might damage the beauty of the place. The glaciers(冰川) are disappearing, changing the    43    of Kilimanjaro.

Does Kilimanjaro    60    its reputation as a crowded mountain with lines of tourists ruining the atmosphere of peace? I found the opposite to be true.

  I work with Volunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley. Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.

I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl(猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.

I examined the chick(雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.

The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.

Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.

A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH! The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.

61What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to paragraph 1?

AEfforts made in vain.

BGetting injured in his work.

CFeeling uncertain about his future.

DCreatures forced out of their homes.

62Why was the author called to Muttontown?

ATo rescue a woman.

BTo take care of a woman.

CTo look at a baby owl.

DTo cure a young owl.

63What made the chick calm down?

AA new nest.

BSome food.

CA recording.

DIts parents.

64How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?

AIt’s unexpected.

BIt’s beautiful.

CIt’s humorous.

DIt’s discouraging.
