218795. (2023•西安六中•高一下一月) Therapy (治疗) dogs have long visited nursing homes and schools and even disaster sites,offering comfort to humans.A new study shows that a 10-minute visit from a therapy dog can help relieve patients' pain in the emergency room.
   The research from the University of Saskatchewan,published in the journal PLOS on Wednesday,found that emergency room patients who were visited by a therapy dog reported less pain than those who weren't.
   "Therapy dogs themselves are really friendly and are so excited to visit with people in places where they don't typically have a pet." Dr.Colleen Dell,a professor at the University of Saskatchewan and one of the study authors,told NPR.
   In a trial(试验),researchers asked more than 200 patients to report their pain levels.One group of patients received a10-minute visit from a therapy dog and the other group did not.After the visit,researchers asked patients in both groups to report their pain levels again.Those who spent 10 minutes with the dog reported less pain,the study found.
   "Many patients have experienced positive outcome from therapy dogs,but this study clinically proves them",said Dell,herself a therapy dog handler.
   Stempien,an associate professor of emergency medicine at the University of Saskatchewan has seen the dogs in action at the hospital where he works.Before the pandemic (大流行病),a therapy dog would visit multiple times a week.During visits,the dog would often make a stop in the nursing lounge(休息室) before visiting with patients.
   "I think it brought smiles on faces of almost all the staff they interacted with," Stempien told NPR.
   But the people aren't the only ones getting something out of this. "Therapy dogs love their job.They love to interact with people." Dell said, "Though we need more research on this,we believe they also gain something out of it as well as giving while visiting with people."

(1)How did researchers carry out their study?        
A.collecting numbers
B.Organizing tests
C.studying previous study projects
D.conducting questionnaires
(2)Which of the following is true about the trial?        
A.Different patients received different treatments from the therapy dogs.
B.Those visited by the therapy dogs reported more positive results.
C.Those visited by the therapy dogs lessen their pain totally.
D.200 doctors and nurses took part in the trial.
(3)What can you know from the last paragraph?        
A.Therapy dogs are only interested in helping people.
B.Therapy dogs fell less pain when staying with people.
C.Therapy dogs can also get something when helping people.
D.The present research is enough to prove that therapy dogs love their job.
(4)Where does this text probably come from?        
A.A health magazine
B.An animal encyclopedia
C.A biology textbook
D.A science fiction

(1)推理判断题。根据第四段In a trial(试验),researchers asked more than 200 patients to report their pain levels.One group of patients received a10﹣minute visit from a therapy dog and the other group did not.After the visit,researchers asked patients in both groups to report their pain levels again.Those who spent 10 minutes with the dog reported less pain,the study found.(在试验中,研究人员要求200多名患者报告他们的疼痛程度。一组患者接受了治疗犬10分钟的探视,另一组没有。访问结束后,研究人员要求两组患者再次报告他们的疼痛程度。研究发现,与狗相处10分钟的人疼痛感较轻。)可知,研究人员是通过组织测试的方式来进行研究的,故选B。
(2)推理判断题。根据第二段emergency room patients who were visited by a therapy dog reported less pain than those who weren't.(有治疗犬看望的急诊室患者报告的疼痛比没有看护犬的患者要轻。)可知,接受治疗的狗访问的人报告了更积极的结果。故选B。
(3)细节理解题。根据最后一段But the people aren't the only ones getting something out of this. "Therapy dogs love their job.They love to interact with people." Dell said, "Though we need more research on his,we believe they also acquire something out of it as well as giving while visiting with people."(但人们并不是唯一从中受益的人。"治疗犬热爱自己的工作。它们喜欢与人互动。"戴尔说,"虽然我们需要对其进行更多的研究,但我们相信它们也从中获得了一些东西,以及在探视他人时给予。")可知,治疗狗在帮助人们的时候也能得到一些东西。故选C。
(4)文章出处题。根据全文和第一段A new study shows that a 10﹣minute visit from a therapy dog can help relieve patients' pain in the emergency room.(一项新的研究表明,治疗犬10分钟的探视可以帮助缓解患者在急诊室的疼痛。)可知,文章主要介绍了治疗狗可以帮助病人减轻疼痛,应该出自健康杂志。A.A health magazine一本健康杂志;B.An animal encyclopedia一本动物百科全书;C.A biology textbook一本生物课本;D.A science fiction一部科幻小说。故选A。

201550. (2025•西安中学•一模)     As part of a post-fire response and recovery project,the Debris Flow Hazard Team(泥石流危害小组) is engaging in several studies to better understand the drivers of post-fire debris flows and improve post-fire hazard assessments across the Pacific Northwest.Wildfires make debris flows easy to happen,a fast-moving mixture of water,soil,and rock that can cause property damage and loss of life.
    After a wildfire,emergency managers need rapid answers to the questions:Where are debris flows likely?How much rain will it take to cause a debris flow?And how big will that debris flow be?Researchers are conducting applied research and emergency hazard assessments to answer these questions.Evaluated burn areas they've assessed included the nearly 2021 Dixie fire,the 2020 Labor Day wildfires,and many of the 2021 wildfires in Washington.
    The models used for hazard assessment have been developed and tested in drier places.But the models have not been tested widely in wetter places.Are the models accurate for wetter regions?Researchers have begun monitoring post-fire debris-flow activity in wetter places to answer the question.Post-fire monitoring involves measuring the rainfall within the burned areas and recording the flow response after rainstorms.The observed flow response is compared to the predicted possibility.If the model predicted a high possibility of debris flow and there was a debris flow,the model got it right.
    Recent data bespeaks both similarities and differences in debris-flow processes between the areas with higher humidity(湿度) and drier areas.For example,in the 2021 Dixie fire,major debris flows were caused by short bursts of intense rainfall like they are in drier places.In contrast,debris flows in the 2017 Eagle Creek Fire were caused by long time rainfall.Continued observation and testing is expected to lead to an improved set of hazard assessment models.
    Other frequently asked questions after wildfires are:How far will debris flows travel?What will be impacted?And how long will the burned areas remain dangerous?These questions are presently not resolved in current debris-flow hazard assessments,but the researchers are doing research to provide answers soon.
    
(1)What is the first paragraph mainly about?        
A.Contents included in a project.
B.Hazards caused by debris flows.
C.Causes of post-fire debris flows.
D.Reasons for conducting the studies.
(2)What places are current studies focusing on?        
A.Places seldom noticed.
B.Places with debris flow records.
C.Places with higher humidity.
D.Places once affected by wildfires.
(3)What does the underlined word"bespeaks"mean in paragraph 4?        
A.Replaces.
B.Reveals.
C.Recognizes.
D.Recommends.
(4)What may be included in the next studies according to the text?        
A.Methods to prevent debris flows.
B.Possible effects of debris flows.
C.The lasting time of the debris flows.
D.Other risks in the burned areas.

204774. (2022•周至县•高一上期末) Trust me,you don't want to get caught under a tsunami!Tsunamis are one of the world's most powerful natural forces.They can cause huge amounts of damage.
   But do you know exactly what a tsunami is?They are huge,powerful waves in the ocean that grow as they reach the shore.Most tsunamis are actually caused by earthquakes.An earthquake happens when a big piece of the Earth's crust(地壳)suddenly moves.When the piece of ocean floor moves,it creates big holes.The water floods in to fill these holes.When the water moves that quickly,it creates a huge wave.This is how tsunamis are born!
   Other natural disasters like landslides,volcanic eruptions,and glaciers breaking off can also cause tsunamis.Once the water starts moving because of the force of the disaster,large waves begin to spread.These waves can move very fast.They have been recorded at speeds from 400 up to 500 miles per hour!They can also move across very long distances.
   At first,the waves of the tsunami may not seem that tall.That's because when the waves travel through the deep parts of the ocean,the top of each wave is very short.But as that wave comes near to the coast,it grows in height.Remember,the tsunami travels quickly.If you are sitting on a beach,you may not see the wave coming at first.But when the wave arrives,it will be like a towering wall of water.Some waves are as tall as 100 feet high.The biggest tsunami ever recorded happened in 1958 in Lituya Bay,Alaska.The wave was over 1,720 feet tall,and it wiped out trees,vegetation,and everything else in its way.
   As frightening as tsunamis can be,you don't need to worry too much about them.They don't happen that often.Only about two tsunamis happen every year.And it is said that serious,really damaging tsunamis only happen about every fifteen years.So don't worry.

(1)According to the article,which natural disaster is not responsible for causing a tsunami?        
A.Tornadoes.
B.Volcanic eruptions.
C.Earthquakes.
D.Landslides.
(2)If a tsunami forms in the deep ocean,2,000 miles off the coast of Sri Lanka,how long at least
will it take the tsunami to reach the coast of SriLanka ?        
A.1 hours.
B.2 hours.
C.4 hours.
D.6 hours.
(3)Which of the following about tsunami is TRUE?        
A.The waves of the tsunami always move slowly over a long distance.
B.People on a ship in the deep ocean will notice a tsunami at once as soon as it forms.
C.If you are sitting on a beach,you must see the wave coming at first.
D.People will not notice a tsunami until it gets close to the coast.
(4)Where would this passage most likely to be found?        
A.In a music magazine.
B.In a science newspaper.
C.In a travel guide.
D.In a story book.

212858. (2023•西安中学•高一上期中)     Over the last two days in December last year,nearly 30 tornadoes caused great damage across six states—from Arkansas in the south to Illinois in the midwest.More than 100 tornado warnings were issued—the most ever for a day.The tornado in Kentucky caused at least 50 people's deaths.which was described as the worst in this state's history.
    As one of the largest countries in the world,the United States is also one of the most geographically various countries—from deserts to forests to miles of coastline.While this comes with many advantages,it unfortunately leaves the country easily damaged by all kinds of natural disasters.
    Different parts of the United States face different types of natural disasters.The west coast is at risk of wildfires,earthquakes,and even volcanic eruptions.The southern part of the country is frequently hit by tornadoes,and the east coast faces the threat of serious hurricanes every year.Midwestern areas near rivers are often flooded by huge floods,and these are the worst floods in American history.
    The governments reviewed the weather event in each state's history that caused the highest number of deaths to determine the worst natural disaster in every state.Thanks to their location and geographic research,some states made preparations ahead of time to avoid mass-casualty (重大伤亡的) weather events.
    However,many other parts of the country have been less fortunate,experiencing massive storms and floods.Many such events,like the 1900 hurricane that hit Galveston of Texas,killed so many people that it was impossible to get an exact number of final deaths,especially,during that time.
    American weather continues to become more changeable.In 2018,there were 14 weather events that caused over $1 billion in damage.And in many parts of the country,these weather events could become even more destructive (毁灭性的) because of global warming.

(1)What do we know from the numbers in paragraph 1?        
A.Less and less natural disasters hit America.
B.Tornadoes were the greatest threat to Americans.
C.The tornado in Kentucky was the worst in America.
D.America suffered from serious natural disasters.
(2)What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?        
A.The natural disasters in different parts of US.
B.The earthquakes in the west coast of US.
C.The hurricanes along the east coast of US.
D.The worst floods in American history.
(3)Which of the following can best describe American's weather in the future?

204337. (2023•未央区•高二上期末) The US government has recently helped people learn more about the dangers of earthquakes by publishing a map.This map shows the chances of an earthquake in catch part of the country.The areas of the map where earthquakes are most likely to occur are called earthquake belts.The government is spending a great deal of money and is working hard to help to discover the answers to these two questions:
   Can we predict earthquakes?
   Can we control earthquakes?
   To answer the first question,scientists are looking very closely at the most active fault (断层) systems in the country,such as the San Andreas fault in California.A fault is a break between two sections of the earth's surface.These breaks between sections are the places where earthquakes occur.But it will probably be many years before we can predict earthquakes correctly.And the control of earthquakes is even farther away.
   However there have been some interesting developments in the field of controlling earthquakes.The most interesting development concerns the Rocky Mountain Arsenal earthquakes.Here water was put into a layer of rocks 4,000 metres below the surface of the ground.Shortly after this injection (注射) of water,there was a small number of earthquakes.Scientists have decided that the water which was injected into the rocks worked like oil on each other.
   When the water"oiled"the fault,the fault became slippery and the energy of an earthquake was given out.Scientists are still experimenting at the site of these earthquakes.They have realized that there is a connection between the injection of the water and the earthquake activity.They have suggested that it might be possible to use this knowledge to prevent very big,dangerous earthquakes,that is,scientists could inject some kind of fluid like water into faults and change on a big earthquake into a number of small,harmless earthquakes.

(1)Earthquakes belts are        .
A.maps that show where earthquakes are likely to occur
B.zones with a high probability of earthquakes
C.breaks between two sections of the earth's surface
D.the two layers of earth along a fault
(2)The San Andreas fault is        .
A.an active fault system
B.a place where earthquakes have been predicted correctly
C.a place where earthquakes have been controlled
D.at the foot of the Rocky Mountain
(3)What did scientists learn about earthquakes at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal?        
A.They occur at about 4.000 metres belowground level
B.The injection of water into earthquake faults prevent earthquakes from occurring.
C.They are usually caused by the oil in the faults.
D.Harmful earthquakes could be prevented by causing harmless earthquakes.
(4)What can be said about the experiments at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal?        
A.They have no practical value in earthquake prevention.
B.They may have practical value in earthquake prevention.
C.They are certain to have practical value in earthquake prevention.
D.Nothing is told about their practical value in earthquake prevention.

205943. (2016•西北大附中•高二下期末) Visualization is closely related to positive thinking.It is used by athletes,musicians,actors,speakers,and others to improve their performance in stressful situations.How does it work?Listen to long-distance runner Vicki Huber:
Right before a big race,I'll picture myself running,and I will try and put all of the other competitors in the race into my mind.Then I will try and imagine every possible situation I might find myself in…behind someone,being pushed,different positions on the track,laps to go,and,of course the final part.And I always picture myself winning the race,no matter what happens during the event.
Of course,Huber doesn't win every race she runs,but research haown that the kind of mental imaging she describes can significantly increase athletic performance.It has also shown that visualization can help speakers control their stage fright.
The key to visualization is creating a vivid mental blueprint in which you see yourself succeeding in your speech.Picture yourself in your classroom rising to speak.See yourself at the lectern(放演讲稿的讲桌),self-assured,making eye contact(接触)with your audience and delivering your introduction in a firm,clear voice.Feel your confidence growing as your listeners get more and more caught up in what you are saying.Imagine your sense of achievement as you conclude the speech knowing you have done your very best.
As you create these images in your mind's eye,be realistic but stay focused on the positive aspects of your speech.Don't allow negative images to affect the positive ones.Acknowledge your nervousness,but picture yourself overcoming it to give an effective presentation.If one part of the speech always seems to give you trouble,visualize yourself getting through it without any problems.And be specific.The clearer your mental pictures,the more successful you are likely to be.
As with your physical rehearsal(排练)of the speech,this kind of mental rehearsal should be repeated several times in the days before you speak.It doesn't guarantee that every speech will turn out exactly the way you imagine it-and it certainly is no replacement for thorough preparation.But it is a proven way to help control your nerves and to make a successful presentation.
(1)Huber's visualization of her races        
A.is detailed and thorough
B.is used during the event
C.is based on real pictures
D.is created with other runners
(2)According to the text,if you run into difficulty when preparing a speech,you should        
A.ignore the negative aspects
B.do the mental imaging later
C.imagine finishing it smoothly
D.create clearer mental pictures
(3)What do we learn about mental rehearsal?        
A.It usually produces the desired results.
B.It may be a good way to calm you down.
C.It is more important than physical rehearsal.
D.It is a good chance to show your imagination.

205880. (2017•西安中学•高一下期末) A new study in December's Journal of Family Psychology says that working mothers report being healthier and happier than the stay-at-home mothers.The author,Dr.Cheryl Buehler,concludes that"A mother's economic role is central to family life,and it supports her well-being and her parenting."What about the miserably conflicted working mother crying at her desk because her baby's first words were"au pair(家务女工)"?
Though Buehler's study relies on data from more than 1,300 mothers of young children across the U.S.-tracked over a 10-year period-the research is far from perfect.To begin with,it's pretty old,as it covers the decade beginning in 1991.So it's unfair to ask whether contemporary(当代的)working moms,whose companies have been downsized(减员的) and whose bosses may expect them to turn on their Black Berries for 24 hours,are quite as peaceful as their Clinton-time mothers.Even more importantly,the study focused on part-time working moms.
But what really makes this study unique is that the focus is on the mothers as well as the children.After decades of research on how working mothers affect their children,somebody's finally gotten around to investigate how it affects the moms.The study also takes a big step to the ongoing need for flexibility(灵活性) in the American workplace-and at home,because this is the power of balance.What's right for any family is what makes the members within it as happy and fulfilled as possible.
The idea that both work and parenting-especially in combination-can contribute to a woman's mental and physical health is good news.But we're complicated beings and the things that satisfy us are diverse(多元的).They're our children and our careers.Nobody said it was easy.But maybe if you want to have it all,a good place to start is by doing it all.

(1)What can we infer from the underlined sentence in the first paragraph?        
A.Working mother doesn't like her job.
B.Working mother is often not very happy.
C.Working mother hates the au pair very much.
D.Working mother loves to cry to relax herself.
(2)What do we know from the second paragraph?        
A.Part time working mothers are happier than before.
B.The Clinton-time mothers are much busier than today's.
C.Today's moms have much better cellphones than before.
D.The contemporary working moms have much more pressure.
(3)In the third paragraph,the author        
A.emphasizes the flexibility in the American working time
B.believes it is not very important to do this kind for research
C.loves to see the research on how working mothers affect themselves
D.considers study on how working mothers affect their children necessary.

205879. (2017•西安中学•高一下期末) Today just as technology changed the face of industry,farms have experienced an"agricultural revolution".On the farm of today,machines provide almost all the power.
One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer.A few forward-looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their farms more efficiently.The computers help them keep more accurate records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant,how much livestock(家畜) to buy,when to sell their products,and how much profit they can expect.Many computer companies have been developing special computer programs just for farmers.Programs are being written for pig producers,grain farmers,potato farmers,and dairy farmers.In the future,farmers will be able to purchase computer programs made to their needs.Because of the growing importance of computers on the farm,students at agricultural colleges are required to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural courses.There can be no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even more in the future.While the old-time farm depended on horse power,and modern farms depend on machine power,farms of the future will depend on computer power.
Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robot,a real"mechanized(机械的) hired hand"that will be able to move and,in some ways,think like a human being.Agricultural engineers believe that computer-aided robots will make shocking changes in farming before the end of the century.Unlike farmers of the present,farmers of the future will find that many day-to-day tasks will be done for them.Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear(修剪) sheep,drive tractors,and harvest fruit.Even complex jobs will be done by robots.For example,in order to milk their cows,farmers must first drive them into the barn,then connect them to the milking machines,watch the machines,and disconnect them when they are finished.In the future,this will all be done by robots.In addition,when the milking is completed,the robots will automatically check to make sure that the milk is pure.The complete change of the farm is far in the future,but engineers expect that some robots will be used before long.

(1)Why are students at agricultural colleges required to take computer classes?        
A.Because computers help them keep more accurate records.
B.Because they need to develop special computer programs just for farmers.
C.Because computers will be more and more important on future farms.
D.Because computer classes are more important than normal agricultural courses.
(2)Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?        
A.Computers are now used by many farmers to help run their farms.
B.Computers can help farmers to make better decisions and predictions.
C.Both computers and robots have been in use on today's farms.
D.Farms may be totally changed in the coming years.
(3)What's the author's attitude toward the agricultural revolution?        
A.Positive
B.Negative
C.Doubtful
D.Indifferent
(4)What is the best title for the whole passage?        
A.Computer,Farmers' Best Friend
B.Farmers in The Future
C.Computers and Robots

205754. (2018•西安一中•高一上期末) The most popular PE class at Waukegan High School in Illinois,US,takes place in a basement field house.
It is the school's version of CrossFit,the difficult physical exercise that has exploded in popularity over the last 16 years at thousands of gyms.It has more than one million devotees(爱好者) and a professional competition shown on ESPN.
Schools around the Chicago area have adopted CrossFit to interest students at a time of a rising weight problem among young people,and most say it really works compared with traditional gym classes.
"I think it's a great way to teach kids lifelong fitness,especially those kids who aren't interested in hockey(曲棍球),soccer or basketball,"said the teacher,Tracy Haraf from Illinois' Stony Creek Elementary,which devotes half of its PE days to CrossFit exercises. "They think it's tough,but I think they have a lot of fun doing it."
Senior Alexus Wiltz,18,said the workout had improved her performance on the basketball court."I noticed I was faster.I paid more attention on the court,my defending was better,"she said after a recent class."It just really helped me."
But some doctors and researchers advise caution,saying the exercises that involve lifting weights can lead to injuries,particularly when performed by few inexperienced people.
Doctor Craig Finlayson at Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago said he was worried that while strength training is fine for kids,heavy weights could be trouble for teenagers who might hurt themselves by trying to do too much or using poor form.
CrossFit Inc,the company that certifies(证明) trainers and licenses gyms,disagrees that its program is more dangerous than other fitness routines.Gym teachers in Waukegan's Greg Moisio,whose two-campus school has about 73%kids taking CrossFit each day,also say the risk of injury can be reduced with proper teaching and CrossFit's flexibility(灵活性).

(1)Why have schools around the Chicago area adopted CrossFit?        
A.To improve students' performance in competitive sports.
B.To introduce something more challenging to the students.
C.To help solve the students' weight problem.

205695. (2018•西安中学•高二下期末) Summer heat can be dangerous,and heat leads to tragedy far too often.According to kidsandcars.org,an average of 37 young children per year die of car heat in the US,when they are accidentally left in a hot vehicle.
   For Bishop Curry,a fifth grader from McKinney,Texas,one such incident hit close to home.A six-month-old baby from his neighborhood died after hours in a hot car.After hearing about her death,Curry decided that something needed to be done.Young Curry,who turned 11 this year,has always had a knack for inventing things,and he drew up a sketch(草图) of a device he called "Oasis."
   The device would attach to car seats and watch the temperature inside the car.If it reached a certain temperature in the car,and the device sensed a child in the car seat,it would begin to circulate cool air.Curry also designs the device using GPS and Wi-Fi technology,which would alarm the child's parents and,if there was no response from them,the police.
   Curry's father believes that the invention has potential. "The cool thing about Bishop's thinking is none of this technology is new," he said. "We feel like the way he's thinking and combining all these technologies will get to production faster." His father even introduced the device to Toyota,where he works as an engineer.The company was so impressed that they sent Curry and his father to a car safety conference in Michigan.
   In January,Curry's father launched a campaign for the invention.They hope to raise money to finalize the patent,build models,and find a manufacturer.Their goal was$20,000,but so many people believed in Oasis' potential that they have raised more than twice that--over$46,000.
   Curry's father remembers the first time he saw his son's sketch. "I was so proud of him for thinking of a solution," he said. "We always just complain about things and rarely offer solutions."

(1)What inspired Curry to invent Oasis?        
A.His narrow escape from death after being locked in a car.
B.His knowledge of many children's death because of car heat.
C.The death of his neighbor's baby after being left in a hot car.
D.The injury of 37 children in his school in a car accident.
(2)What would Oasis do if it was hot in a car with a child?        
A.It would inform the parents or even the police.
B.It would pump out the hot air in the car.
C.It would sound the alarm attached to the car.
D.It would get the window open to save the child.
(3)What does Curry's father think is cool about Curry's invention?        
A.It used some of the most advanced technology.
B.It simply combined technologies that existed.
C.It could accelerate production of new technology.
D.It is the most advanced among similar products.
(4)Why did Curry's father start a campaign to raise money?        
A.To conduct experiments to test the invention.
B.To get other children devoted to inventions.
C.To support a charity of medical aid for children.
D.To get the patent and bring it to production.

Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States,but they were gradually displaced by human development.By the 1920s,wolves had disappeared from the Yellowstone area.They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada,where there were fewer humans around.
The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results.Deer and elk populations - major food sources (来源) for the wolf - grew rapidly.These animals consumed (消耗) large amounts of vegetation (植被),which reduced plant diversity (多样性) in the park.In the absence of wolves,coyote populations also grew quickly.The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park's red foxes,and completely drove away the park's beavers.
As early as 1966,biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.
The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves.The U.S.Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone.Today,the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone.Elk,deer,and coyote populations are down,while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.

205640. (2018•西安中学•高一下期末) Imagine,one day,getting out of bed in Beijing and being at your office in Shanghai in only a couple of hours,and then,after a full day of work,going back home to Beijing and having dinner there.
   Sounds unusual,doesn't it?But it's not that unrealistic,with the development of China's high-speed railway system.And that's not all.China has an even greater high-speed railway plan to connect the country with Southeast Asia,and eventually Eastern Europe.China is negotiating to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 countries in 10 to 15 years,eventually reaching London and Singapore.
   China has proposed three such projects.The first would possibly connect Kunming with Singapore via Vietnam and Malaysia.Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan,and possibly to Germany.The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe.The new system would still follow China's high-speed railway standard.And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour,almost as fast as some airplanes.Of course,there are some technical challenges to overcome.There are so many issues that need to be settled,such as safety,rail gauge(轨距),maintenance of railway tracks.But the key issue is really money.China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic railway expansion.
   China prefers that the other countries pay in natural resources rather than with capital investment.Resources from those countries could stream into China to sustain development.It'll be a win-win project.For other countries,the railway network will definitely create more opportunities for business,tourism and so on,not to mention the better communication among those countries.
   For China,such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources,but would also help develop China's far west.We foresee that in the coming decades,millions of people will migrate to the western regions,where the land is empty and resources unused.With high-speed trains,people will set up factories and business centers in the west once and for all.And they'll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries.

(1)According to the passage,the greatest challenge to the new high-speed railway plan is        
A.technical issues
B.safety of the system
C.financial problems
D.maintenance of railway tracks
(2)China's new high-speed railway plan will be a win-win project because        
A.China will get much-needed resources and develop its western regions.
B.China and the countries involved will benefit from the project in various ways.
C.China will develop its railway system and communication with other countries.
D.The foreign countries involved will develop their railway transportation,business and tourism.
(3)Which of the following words best describes the author's attitude towards China's high-speed railway plan?        
A.Critical.
B.Reserved.
C.Doubtful.
D.Positive.
(4)Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?        
A.New Railway Standards
B.Big Railway Dreams
C.High-speed Bullet Trains
D.International Railway Network

205622. (2019•蓝田县•高二下期末) Dolphins are not fish,but warm-blooded animals.They live in groups,and speak to each other in their own language.In this,they are like other animals,such as bees and birds.But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals.Their brain is nearly the same size as our own,and they live a long time-at least twenty or thirty years.Like some animals,dolphins use sound to help them find their way around.They also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food.We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds,but the lower part of the mouth,called the jaw.
   Strangely,dolphins seem to like man,and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.
   There is a story about sailors in the 19th century.In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand,they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack.From 1871 to 1903,Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way.Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called The Penguin shot and wounded Jack.He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area--except for The Penguin.
   Today,some people continue to kill dolphins,but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.

205527. (2020•蓝田县•高三上期末) Almost like a clock tower,a town in the western highlands of Guatemala has been able to practically tell the time by the regular eruptions of a local volcano.In the town of Quetzaltenango,volcanoes have erupted so frequently that they have nearly marked every passing hour of every day for 96 years.
   The source is Santiaguito,one of the world's most active volcanoes.It is situated at the base of the large volcano Santa Maria.It took shape about twenty years after the violent eruption of Santa Maria in 1902.
   "Since then,almost continuous small explosions have happened along with the growth of Santiaguito," says Stephanie Grocke,a volcanologist. "There has not been a long period of time since 1922 when Santiaguito was quiet."
   Scientists are trying to figure out what is causing the regular activity at Santiaguito.Grocke adds. "What we know for sure is that magma(岩浆) and gas are steadily rising from deep within the system,allowing the volcano to continuously show signs of life," Grocke says.
   A possible explanation is that before an explosion,the vent,or opening,at the top of Santiaguito is closed,trapping hot gases and magma below.As the gas builds up,the pressure increases and eventually tears through the tops sealed vent,letting out the gases and sending magma and rocks skyward.Santiaguito eventually runs out of fuel,causing eruptions to stop.The materials that were sent out cover the top,reclosing Santiaguito's vent and starting the process over again.
   The sizes of the eruptions are never the same,Grocke say.Most often,they tend to small,producing mainly ash plumes(火山灰) that can reach a height of nearly 1,640 feet,lava flows that travel about two miles from the top.However,there are some eruptions they are very hazardous.
   "At times,larger explosions happen,producing ash plumes that rise less than kilometers above the vent." Grocke ways.Such cases can result in hot fast moving flow made up of gas,ash,and rock,which can be deadly to local communities.Volcanic mudflow are also another serious risk.

(1)When did Santiaguito form according to the text?        
A.Around 1806.
B.Around 1902.
C.Around 1922.
D.Around 1942.
(2)Which of the following about Santiaguito have scientists understood?        
A.When the volcano stops erupting
B.Why the regular activity changes
C.What is happening inside the volcano
D.How fast the magma and gas are rising
(3)What happens after Santiaguito erupts?        
A.The vent is closed again.
B.Cooler gases are produced.
C.The fuel inside gradually increases.
D.More openings form at Santiaguito's top.
(4)What does the underlined word "hazardous" in Paragraph 6 probably mean?        
A.Weak.
B.Dangerous.
C.Brief.
D.Similar.

205509. (2020•莲湖区•高二下期末) A recent study conducted by researchers from Canada's Wilfrid Laurier University found that the snakes actively seek out socialization with their peers (同伴),but also they are extremely particular about who they spend time with.However,snakes used to be thought of as solitary animals.They are seldom seen hanging out in groups.
   A team of researchers led by Morgan Skinner and Dr.Noam Miller selected 40 non-poisonous garter snakes (袜带蛇).Ten were purchased from a snake keeper and the rest were caught in the wild.After marking each snake with a spot of color to allow for easy identification,the researchers placed ten snakes inside each of the four plastic shelters.
  Skinner photographed each snake group twice a day before removing them from their shelters.After cleaning the areas thoroughly to rid them of any familiar smells,the reptiles were rearranged into different groups,and returned to the enclosure.A camera fixed over the shelters allowed the scientists to track the animals' movements for a total of eight days.
   When Skinner and Miller analyzed the images,they found that regardless of where they were placed,the snakes always slipped back to their original "friends" forming groups of three or eight inside the small shelters. "They can tell others apart," Miller said.
   Gordon Burghardt,a biologist,says, "The study should help convince people that snakes have more social intelligence than most of us realize."
   Miller believes the research could help with snake protection efforts.Endangered snake species relocated to safer habitats often leave these areas.Now,conservationists may be able to avoid that by transferring entire snake groups to the new location.Alternatively,they could also spray(喷洒)the new habitat with the species' smells to make transplants feel at "home."

(1)What does the underlined word "solitary" mean in paragraph 1?        
A.Causing fear.
B.Existing only in small numbers.
C.Causing death or illness.
D.Enjoying being alone.
(2)What can we learn from the last paragraph?        
A.The findings can contribute to snake conservation.
B.Snakes like to spray smells on the trees.
C.Snakes are easy to adapt to new locations.
D.Snakes tend to stay in safer habitats.
(3)Which of the following proverbs can be used to describe the findings?        
A.Barking dogs don't bite.
B.The early bird catches worms.
C.Things of one kind come together.
D.A friend in need is a friend in deed.
(4)In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?        
A.Entertainment.
B.Science.
C.Education.
D.Health.

205489. (2020•莲湖区•高一下期末) Churchill,Manitoba is a small town.The northern winds roll through it from Canada's Hudson Bay.It might be just another point on the map if not for its seasonal settlers.
   It happens like clockwork every fall that hundreds of polar bears make their way through the town to the freezing bay where they hunt for seals after the ice packs enough to support their weight.The animals have been connected with Churchill since at least 1619.That's when Norwegian explorer Jens Munk and his sailors recorded making a meal of one bear while they wintered in the area. "It was of good taste and did not disagree with us." That's what Munk wrote in his journal.
   Over the years,the animals' coming has earned the town the name of "Polar Bear Capital of the World." Today,Churchill's bear population goes beyond its human population.There used to be about 7,000 residents but now only 813 living there.There was no such thing as an organized tour group to see the bears until 1980.The town might have been in terrible financial hardships.But the growing bear tourism industry helped.
   Today,some 10,000 tourists come to the town to see polar bears for six weeks in autumn every year.But the reasons why they come are different from before.Everyone was happier and they had such a good time seeing polar bears.Now things have changed because the word is out that this Western Hudson Bay population of bears,Churchill Bears,are going to be the first population of polar bears to die out.So when the tourists come up,they all have a little bit of a lump in their throats(如鲠在喉)because they're looking at a beautiful bear,but they're also looking at a dying-out bear,which makes the whole attitude toward the bears different.Unfortunately,that's becoming the major part of the whole attraction of the tours as well.Come and see the bears before it's too late.

(1)What can we learn about Churchill polar bears from the text?       
A.They have eaten up the seals in the Hudson Bay.
B.They come to Churchill at the same time every year.
C.They move to Churchill to escape the northern winds.
D.They are so dangerous that most natives left their home.
(2)What did Munk report in his journal?       
A.They fed many polar bears.
B.Polar bears were dangerous.
C.They hunted a bear for food.
D.They found some seals in the bay.
(3)How do polar bears benefit Churchill?       
A.They make many people settle down.
B.They attract many hunters to come here.
C.They bring much tourist income.
D.They supply food to locals.
(4)What is the main reason why tourists go to Churchill now?       
A.To say good-bye to Churchill Bears.
B.To help polar bears become happier.
C.To take photos with Churchill Bears.
D.To stop polar bears going to the town.
