Ⅰ.阅读理解
Since 1970，North America has lost more than 2.9 billion birds，according to a study recently published in the journal Science.In less than half a century，the bird population has declined by some 29 percent，or more than 1 in 4 birds.For the first time，researchers have discovered that rare species aren’t the only birds suffering population loss.In fact，common birds—including beloved backyard friends like sparrows and blackbirds—are taking the biggest hit.
The new study used nearly 50 years of data collected largely by bird watchers and citizen scientists.“A total of 419 native migratory species experienced a net loss of 2.5 billion individuals，” the study says.More than 90 percent of the total loss can be found among just 12 bird families.Some of these widespread birds can thrive almost anywhere.The largescale loss of these hardy birds reveals they’re struggling to survive throughout the world.
Birds are considered indicator species because they’re crucial to ecosystems，and their populations anticipate the environment’s health.Birds are “amazingly efficient” at spreading seeds.Birds also keep insect populations in check.Even the smallest bird helps control the spread of plants or insects.
The new study，however，identifies the losses without knowing all the causes.Scientists do identify habitat loss as the biggest challenge.Climate change，disrupted migration patterns and pesticide use are also major factors.Industrial agriculture may present a bigger challenge.The species disappearing most rapidly—sparrows，blackbirds and larks—are associated with agriculture.In recent decades，agriculture has grown to produce more food，but cleared landscapes have become unlivable for birds.
“We need to change the way we grow food.Birds are signaling that we are doing it wrong，” as the study says.The study offers the example of the 1990s effort to switch to notill farming，which reduced greenhouse gases and soil erosion(侵蚀)．“Farmers are innovators.And they’ve done it before.This is a great opportunity to have a huge impact on birds.”
语篇解读 这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现，即普通鸟类的数量锐减和其背后的原因以及解决方案。
1．What’s the study mainly about?
A．The climate issues.
B．The disappearing birds.
C．The agricultural problems.
D．The environmental protection.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后两句可知，研究人员首次发现，珍稀物种并不是唯一遭受种群损失的鸟类。事实上，普通的鸟类——包括像麻雀和黑鸟这样的我们后院的好朋友——受到的伤害最大。由此可知，这个研究主要是关于正在消失的鸟类的。故选B。
2．How is the second paragraph mainly developed?
A．By listing figures.
B．By giving examples.
C．By analyzing reasons.
D．By making comparisons.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“The new study used nearly 50 years of data collected largely by bird watchers and citizen scientists.‘A total of 419 native migratory species experienced a net loss of 2.5 billion individuals，’the study says.More than 90 percent of the total loss can be found among just 12 bird families.”可知，作者列举了大量数据来介绍该项新研究。故选A。
3．What’s the main reason behind the birds’ habitat loss?
A．Climate change.
B．Greenhouse gases.
C．Industrial agriculture.
D．Disrupted migration patterns.
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第四段前两句可知，鸟类数量锐减最重要的原因就是鸟类栖息地的减少；结合本段最后一句中的“agriculture has grown to produce more food，but cleared landscapes have become unlivable for birds”可知，为了生产更多的粮食，人们开垦了很多土地。但是这些新开垦的土地却不再适合鸟类居住。故鸟类栖息地丧失的主要原因是农业产业化。故选C。
4．What does the study suggest as a solution?
A．Producing more food.
B．Clearing more landscapes.
C．Reducing the use of pesticide.
D．Adopting new means of farming.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“We need to change the way we grow food...The study offers the example of the 1990s effort to switch to notill farming，which reduced greenhouse gases and soil erosion(侵蚀)．”可知，我们需要改变种植食物的方式。“免耕农业”可以减少温室气体和对土壤的侵蚀，从而减少对鸟类的伤害。由此推断出，这项研究提出的解决方案是采用新的耕作方法。故选D。
Ⅱ.七选五
Be a Good Tourist
Tourism can be both good and bad.Yes，it brings in money for the local economy and creates lots of jobs for locals，but it may also bring some problems.
1 Tourists have used paint，rocks，or even keys to write on the Luxor Temple in Egypt，the Colosseum in Rome，Stonehenge in the UK，memorial stones at the bottom of Qomolangma，and many，many other places.Thousands of tourist sites are being destroyed by tourists who “love them to death”． 2 If you want to leave a mark on the world，do it by changing someone’s life with kindness and love.Pass kindness along to future generations，not destruction.
Another big problem in some places has been tourists disturbing the local people and life. 3 For example，Chiang Mai University in Thailand and Yonsei University in South Korea have great numbers of tourists visiting their campuses and walking through their libraries and other public areas，taking pictures of students and disturbing their studies.I have three words for tourists like this：please be considerate. 4
The number of problems from tourists is endless：walking in large groups without considering others who need to walk by，crossing roads without observing local traffic laws，and many more.The only way to solve the issue of the terrible tourist is to make sure that you are not one！ 5 Remember，whenever you step outside your country’s borders，you are representing your country to the rest of the world.
A．Just think from other aspects.
B．When in Rome，do as the Romans do.
C．Have fun in a way that does not disturb others.
D．Be the best，kindest，most polite tourist if possible.
E．I have three words for people like this：please stop it.
F．One growing problem is tourists who want to prove that they have visited someplace.
G．Some tourists wander around and take pictures of local people without asking for their permission.
语篇解读 这是一篇议论文。本文论述了旅游业可能带来的一些问题，并针对这些问题提出了文明出游的正确做法。
1．答案 F
解析 第一段最后提到旅游业也可能带来一些问题。第二段第一句有必要承上启下讲出第一个问题，空格后具体提到了游客们在景点写字这个问题。因此F项(一个日益严重的问题是游客们想证明他们去过某个地方。)符合上下文语境，并且此句也和第三段第一句中的“Another big problem”相呼应。故选F。
2．答案 E
解析 前文提到因为乱写乱画致使很多景点被破坏，所以此处是告诫人们“不要这样做”，紧接着提出具体的建议。因此E项(我对这样的人要说三个字：请停止。)符合上下文语境。这句也和第三段中的“I have three words...”相呼应。故选E。
3．答案 G
解析 前文提到在一些地方，另一个大问题是游客扰乱了当地人们的生活。此处应具体解释游客如何扰乱了当地人们的生活。根据后面介绍的发生在两所大学的具体事例可知，G项(一些游客在未经允许的情况下四处游荡，给当地人拍照。)符合上下文语境。故选G。
4．答案 C
解析 此处是对前面的“be considerate(要做到体贴他人)”作具体的解释说明，因此C项(以不打扰他人的方式享受乐趣。)符合前文语意。故选C。
5．答案 D
解析 前句强调确保自己不做“terrible tourist(糟糕的游客)”，紧接着应该说明如何做一名合格的游客，并且与后面一句构成因果关系：因为出国旅游代表的是自己国家的形象，所以D项(要尽可能成为最好、最友善、最有礼貌的游客。)符合上下文语意。故选D。

My first 9 marriage felt very unfair to me.No matter how hard I had tried，I couldn’t make the relationship 10 .But I didn’t let it discourage me from wanting a happy marriage.And finally，I met my Mr.Right.
