the city of Taiyuan in Shanxi,China.”可知,本文一共提及了俄罗斯、加拿大、美国和中国四个国家,并未提及日本。2.B 词义猜测题。根据第三段第三句“In fact,the Arctic is home to more than 21,000 kinds of lives.”可知,北极是超过两万一千种动物的家,也就是说在北极生存的动物种类很多,所以它有很多“不同的”生命。3.D 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“They make a living by fishing,hunting and so on.”可知,生活在北极的人主要以捕鱼和打猎等为生。4.C 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“The polar bear is the most famous Arctic animal.”可知,北极熊是最著名的北极动物。5.C 主旨大意题。本文主要花大篇幅在写北极动物和人在北极的生活以及他们以后可能都要面临的问题,总的来说这篇文章主要是关于生存在北极的生物。Day 3Last weekend I read __1__ exciting in the library.A blind man __2__ in climbing Qomolangma.Now
