参考范文：

    Good morning, everyone. Wild animals are close friends of human beings. Their existence makes the whole world lively and colorful. We should protect wild animals because a lot of wild animals will become extinct. So it is high time that active and effective measures should be taken.

As students, we can let more people know the importance of protecting wild animals and expose the illegal killing of wild animals. We make an appeal to the public that more people study and publicize the information about wild animals and keep it in mind that protecting animals is the duty of everyone. After all, protecting animals is protecting ourselves.

The Himalayas, which stretch some 2,450 kilometers between China, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bhutan, and Nepal, are the world’s tallest mountain range. In addition to Mount Qomolangma, the world's tallest mountain by peak elevation standing 8,848.86 meters tall, the range also features several other mountain peaks over 8,000 meters. It is the first mountain range to have mountains over 8,000 meters — the runner-up is a mountain range in Asia, whose tallest peak is 8,611 meters tall.

Millions of years ago, these mountain peaks didn’t exist. The Asian continent was mostly complete, but India was an island floating off the coast of Australia. Around 150 million years ago, around the time when Gondwanaland was breaking apart, India started to move northwards. It traveled some 6,000 kilometers before it finally hit Eurasia around 50 to 55 million years ago. Then, part of the Indian landmass (陆块) began to go beneath the Asian one, moving the Asian landmass up, which resulted in the rise of the Himalayas. It’s thought that Indian coastline was denser and more firmly attached to the seabed, which is why Asian softer soil was pushed up rather than the other way around.

The mountain range grew very rapidly in comparison to most mountain ranges, and it's actually still growing today. Mount Qomolangma and its fellows actually grow by approximately a centimeter or so every year. The Appalachian Mountains in North America, which developed some 300 million years ago or more, are actually decreasing in peak elevations as they erode (风化).

The continued growth in the Himalayas is likely due to the Indian tectonic (地壳构造的) plate still moving slowly but surely northwards. We know the plate is still moving in part because of the frequent earthquakes in the region.

1．What do the underlined words “the runner-up” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?

A．The fastest. B．The lowest. C．The most popular. D．The second tallest.

2．What led to the formation of the Himalayas?

A．The long coastline of India. B．The fast movement of India.

C．The firm attachment of Asia to the seabed. D．The meeting of India with the Asian continent.

3．What can we learn from Paragraph 3?

A．Most mountains in the world grow rapidly.

B．The Appalachian Mountains have soft soil.

C．Mount Qomolangma will be about one meter taller in a century.

D．The Appalachian Mountains were once taller than the Himalayas.

4．What will happen to the Himalayas in the future?

A．It will continue to grow. B．It will move southwards.

C．It will attract more tourists. D．It will have fewer earthquakes.

（2020·海南·高考真题）Rainforests are home to a rich variety of medicinal plants, food, birds and animals. Can you believe that a single bush（灌木丛）in the Amazon may have more species of ants than the whole of Britain! About 480 varieties of trees may be found in just one hectare of rainforest.

Rainforests are the lungs of the planet-storing vast quantities of carbon dioxide and producing a significant amount of the world's oxygen. Rainforests have their own perfect system for ensuring their own survival; the tall trees make a canopy（树冠层）of branches and leaves which protect themselves, smaller plants, and the forest animals from heavy rain, intense dry heat from the sun and strong winds.

Amazingly, the trees grow in such a way that their leaves and branches, although close together, never actually touch those of another tree. Scientists think this is the plants' way to prevent the spread of any tree diseases and make life more difficult for leaf-eating insects like caterpillars. To survive in the forest, animals must climb, jump or fly across the gaps. The ground floor of the forest is not all tangled leaves and bushes, like in films, but is actually fairly clear. It is where dead leaves turn into food for the trees and other forest life.

They are not called rainforests for nothing! Rainforests can generate 75%of their own rain. At least 80 inches of rain a year is normal-and in some areas there may be as much as 430 inches of rain annually. This is real rain-your umbrella may protect you in a shower, but it won't keep you dry if there is a full rainstorm. In just two hours, streams can rise ten to twenty feet. The humidity（湿气）of large rainforests contributes to the formation of rainclouds that may travel to other countries in need of rain.

1．What can we learn about rainforests from the first paragraph?

A．They produce oxygen. B．They cover a vast area.

C．They are well managed. D．They are rich in wildlife.

2．Which of the following contributes most to the survival of rainforests?

A．Heavy rains B．Big trees.

C．Small plants. D．Forest animals.

3．Why do the leaves and branches of different trees avoid touching each other?

A．For more sunlight. B．For more growing space.

C．For self-protection. D．For the detection of insects.

4．What can be a suitable title for the text?

A．Life-Giving Rainforests B．The Law of the Jungle

C．Animals in the Amazon D．Weather in Rainforests
