27、于人类频繁的活动和大肆砍伐森林,越来越多的动物面临灭绝的危险。我们应该怎样保护动物呢? 假设你校正在举行征文竞赛,题目是“Lets Protect Wild Animals”。请根据以下提示,适当发挥想象,写一篇80词左右的英语短文,参加此次比赛。要点提示：1. Why is the number of wild animals getting smaller and smaller?2. What should we do to protect wild animals?Lets Protect Wild Animals_ 参考答案一、1. D点拨: 根据句意的描述“脸像猫, 肥胖的身体,

28、短尾巴, 看起来像熊一样”可知此动物为panda熊猫。故选D。2. C 点拨: 本题考查非谓语动词。protect是动词原形, protects是一般现在时, to protect是动词不定式, protected是过去式。结合句意, 中国政府制定法律的目的是保护野生动物, 因此用动词不定式, 故选C。3. B 点拨: 考查对重量的提问。有三种方法提问重量, What is the weight of sth. ? / How heavy is sth. ? / How much does sth. weigh？本题显然属于第三种, 故选B。4. C 点拨: 细节处理题。问句中的“本周末打算干

29、什么？”, 以及答句中的“Im not sure. ”可以看出, 也不确定, 所有选用may表示可能性。故选C。5. D 点拨: 考查副词。therefore因此, anyway无论如何, however不管怎样, otherwise否则。句意为“你复习功课的时候, 把你想要问的问题做一个笔记, 否则你会忘记一些的”。故选D。6. D 点拨: nothing指什么东西都没有; no one和nobody同义, 指没有人; none指数量上(某物)一个也没有。根据句意可知这里指“大熊猫一个都没有”, 故选D。7. B 点拨: on his own指“靠他自己”。故选B。8. C 点拨: 情景还原

30、法。句意为“汤姆太懒了, 也不努力学习, _, 他没通过考试”。why为什么; because因为; as a result结果; in order to 为了。根据句意可知是结果, 他没通过考试。故选C。9. C 10. C 点拨: 交际法。根据答语中的“Im trying not to get it wet”可知, 我尽量不弄湿我的手指, 所以我不能洗碗, 故应对请求表示拒绝, Sorry, Im afraid I cant符合题意。故选C。二、11. B 点拨: 句意为“在非洲和印度, 狮子能够被发现”。use使用, find发现, tell告诉, lead带路。故选B。12. A 点拨

31、: 由“Almost every zoo around the world has a few lions. ”可以推出前面指在动物园, 狮子是受欢迎的动物。故选A。13. C 14. D 点拨: 根据“A male lion has manes(鬃毛)_ female lions dont have. ”可知公狮子与母狮子在长相上是很容易辨别的。故选D。15. A 点拨: 考查连词。前面讲公狮子有鬃毛, 后面讲母狮子没有, 所以表示转折, 用but, 故选A。16. A 点拨: larger更大的, smaller更小的, thinner更瘦的, shorter更矮的。下文“A male l

32、ion usually weighs about 200 kilograms which is always heavier than a female lion. ”告诉我们在重量上, 公狮子比母狮子要重, 自然体型也较大, 故选A。17. B 点拨: active积极的, strong强壮的, weak虚弱的, soft柔软的。这里用来修饰狮子的嘴, 后文“They can break the backs of other animals”能弄破其他动物的后背, 当然是强壮的。故选B。18. C 点拨: 前面提到狮子的嘴非常强壮, 因此这里表示“很轻易弄破其他动物的后背”, 用easily

33、。故选C。19. B 点拨: 前文提到狮子以其他动物为食, 所以后文应指每年一头狮子要吃掉10到20头的大型动物为食物。故选B。20. A 点拨: kill杀死, call打电话, save拯救, kiss亲吻。这段开始讲狮子的伤人事件, 所以指两头狮子杀死并吃掉100多人。故选A。21. C 22. B 点拨: book书, story故事, game游戏, invention发明。本句指上文的伤人事件被拍成了电影, 应用story来指代, 故选B。23. D 点拨: 句型It is 形容词to do sth. 意为“做事怎么样”。故选D。24. A 点拨: care for 照顾, loo

34、k for 寻找, look at 看, play with 和一起玩。故选A。25. D 点拨: watch观察, call打电话, raise提升, protect保护。最后一句是全文的点睛之句, 句意为“我们应该保护它们”。故选D。三、26. D 点拨: 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Its my job to follow wolves to record information about them. ”可知, 是跟踪狼群记录它们的信息。故选D。27. D 点拨: 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“From fairy tales to movies, the wolf is always the bad guya danger to humans and other animals. In the 1920s, the organizers of the park shared this view about wolves and made the decision to drive them away from the park. ”可知, 在20世纪20年代, 组织者把狼赶出公园是因为它们被认为在公园是危险的。故选D。28. C 点拨: 段落大意题。分析第四、五两段内容可知, 之前狼被认为是危险的, 但是狼的回归已经造成了很大的不同, 狼相对而言减少了麋鹿的数量, 这样树
