【语篇解读】这是一篇夹叙夹议类的文章。在现代,野生动物正在遭受巨大威胁,每天都有一些物种灭绝。白鹤就是其中之一。但是,有很多人正在竭尽全力保护这些物种免于灭绝。Chris和Tim通过努力,帮助一只名叫Emma的雌鹤繁殖了五只幼鹤。
36.D
【解析】考查动词辨析。根据第一句“Wildlife has been greatly threatened in the modern age”和最后一句提到的“…the species from going out of existence”可以推知,野生动物正在遭受巨大威胁,每天都有一些物种灭绝,即:“消失”。D选项正确。
37.B
【解析】考查动词辨析。前文提到每天都有物种消失,那么该句应指科学家们正在竭尽全力保护这些物种,使它们免于灭绝。故B选项正确。
38.C
【解析】考查名词辨析。上文最后一句提到科学家们竭尽全力保护濒临灭绝的物种,由此推知,该处应指Chris和Tim帮助濒危物种繁殖,增加它们的数量,这样它们才不至于灭绝。故该空应指“繁殖”,C选项正确。
39.A
【解析】考查名词辨析。自从2004年,Emma一直由Chris和Tim照顾。该空和下一句中的“human caretaker”呼应。故选A。
40.C
【解析】考查动词辨析。根据空后的“human caretakers”可知,caretaker当然是照看Emma的。故该句应指:出生在一个国际鹤基地,Emma由人类抚养照看。故选C。
41.B
【解析】考查名词辨析。根据空后的though(尽管)可知,though前后的两个句子之间是转折关系。后面提到,她过得很开心。根据转折关系,那么前文应该表示“但是这导致了出乎意料的结果”。B选项正确。
42A
【解析】考查副词辨析。根据下文中的“become deeply attached to humans…even …killing some of them”等内容可知,因为Emma一直由人类照看,所以它没有将自己看作是一只鹤,而是深深的依恋上了人类。故选A。
43.B
【解析】考查动词辨析。根据上文,Emma不把自己当作鹤,所以它“拒绝”和雄鹤生活在一起。B选项正确。
44.D
【解析】考查名词辨析。根据even(甚至)这个递进关系可知,Emma不仅拒绝和雄鹤生活在一起,而且因为弄死了几只雄鹤而“臭名昭著”。故D选项正确。
45.D
【解析】考查形容词辨析。Emma拒绝和雄鹤生活,这当然使得她“不可能”生育小鹤,成为妈妈。D选项正确。
46.C
【解析】考查连词辨析。上文提到Emma拒绝和雄鹤生活,使得她不可能生育小鹤。下文提到两位动物园管理员不想看到这一物种的灭绝。由此推知,上下文之间是转折关系。C选项正确。
47.A
【解析】考查名词辨析。经过努力,Chris和Tim成功的将“人工繁殖”和“自然繁殖”结合在一起。A选项正确。
48.D
【解析】考查动词辨析。Chris和Tim成功的将“人工繁殖”和“自然繁殖”结合在一起,这使得Emma诞育了五只幼鹤。enable sb. to do sth.意为“使……能够做某事”,D选项正确。
49.C
【解析】考查形容词辨析。根据后文的more efforts must be made可以推知,尽管两个人为自己的成就感到骄傲,但是他们还需要付出更多努力,因为野生鹤的数量在减少。所以他们还不能完全放心(白鹤不会灭绝)。故选C。assured意为“确定的,有把握的,自信的”。
50.D
【解析】考查动词辨析。根据because可知,前后句之间是因果关系,根据more efforts must be made可以推知,野生白鹤数量在减少,所以,还要付出更多的努力(来挽救白鹤灭绝)。故D选项正确。
51.B
【解析】考查介词辨析。前文提到:野生白鹤数量正在减少,很多其他物种似乎也在逐渐灭绝。该句提到,并不是所有的人都意识到野生动物有思想,感情,以及平等生存的权利。很明显,该句是对前文出现野生动物濒临灭绝原因的一种解释。故B选项正确。after all:毕竟(用于解释和说明理由)。
52.B
【解析】考查动词辨析。针对上文提到的很多物种灭绝这种现象,作者提出一个问题:我们如何来消除将人类和动物隔开的不断扩大的鸿沟呢?B选项正确。

55.A
【解析】考查名词辨析。根据转折词but可以推知,人类想当然的认为自己的“大脑”掌握着所有的解决办法。但或许他们可以用“心”更好地“引领”他们去保护这些濒危的动物。故A选项正确。

16. C
【解析】考查形容词辨析。根据前文的“fear seized me. My wallet was gone.”可以推知,作者将钱包落在了公共汽车上,而汽车正在开往某个作者未知的地方,这使得找回钱包的希望渺茫,因此作者心生“恐惧”。故C选项(unknown)切题。
17. D
【解析】考查形容词辨析。根据上一段中的“fear seized me”可以推知,作者在发现丢了钱包之后的第一感觉是“害怕”。之后,作者开始在内心计算找回钱包里的那些东西所需要的时间和钱数。故该空应和fear表达的意思相近,D选项(heart-stopping)切题:令人心跳停止的,惊心动魄的。

25. C
【解析】考查动词辨析。根据文章最后一段中的“a bitterly cold night”可知,这件事发生在一个寒冷的晚上。同时,Erin又不认识作者。由此推知,该句应指:Erin估计去一个陌生人的家是一个冒险的举动。C选项(calculate)正确:估算,估计,预料。
26. B
【解析】考查形容词辨析。根据下文中的转折词but可知,该句和she decided to take the chance(她决定冒险)是转折关系。那么该句应指去一个陌生人家是一个冒险的举动。故B选项(risky)正确:冒险的。

31. B
【解析】考查动词辨析。根据后面的转折词but可知,该句和后面一句(她们想帮忙)转折关系,由此推知,该句指:除了闲聊,作者和那两位妈妈从来没有说过话,即:从未和她们“交换过词语”。B选项(exchange)正确:交换,互换。
32. A
【解析】考查动词辨析。作者曾经读到这样的说法:人们比以往更加四分五裂,即:人们不像以前那样团结,不像以前那样互相帮助了。但是,作者遇到的这些人的行为方式不是那样的。上文中提到的Erin,two moms都是作者遇到的人。故A选项(encounter)正确:偶遇,遇到,邂逅。
33. C
【解析】考查动词短语辨析。回顾发生的这件事,作者感到很幸运:有人想帮助一个陌生人。C选项(look back)正确:回顾,追忆。

35. D

In order to 50 the class, among other criteria, we had to write a paper on how we plan to 51 what we would learn in class to our future professions and, 52 , to our lives. I managed to get an A in that 53 and learned life lessons that have served me well beyond the 54 .
Ten years after my chess class with Ashley, I’m still putting to use what he 55 me: “The absolute most important 56 that you learn when you play chess is how to make good 57 . On every single move you have to 58 a situation, process what your opponent (对手) is doing and 59 the best move from among all your options.” These words still ring true today in my 60 as a journalist.

【名师点睛】这篇文章是记叙文,难度适中,首先要通读文章,抓住故事情节和作者想传达的中心思想,围绕主旨来解答会更有把握。本篇文章的故事内容体现了作者坚持不懈的毅力和不被困难压倒的精神。学生要抓住这个主题,而且这个主题贯穿于整篇文章中。这篇文章的一个明显特点是上下文之间的联系非常紧密。做题时把握选项含义,且要牢记上下文的关联对解题会很有帮助。
做题时要结合完形填空的特点,完形填空题有的考查词语同现、词语复现,有的则是要运用逻辑推理能力。领会和掌握解题策略对提高完形填空的解题速度和准确率大有裨益。具体策略有:
1. 上下文串联和语境暗示。
这篇完型填空里面出现词语同现的很少,但是词语复现不少,就是指某一个词以原词、同根词、同义词、反义词等方式重复出现在语篇中,语篇中的句子通过这种复现关系实现相互衔接。这篇完型的18题和首句中的动词weighed 相对应;24题中下文明显出现了project;29题中上文出现了the fear;34题是和下文的I lost 150 pounds and raised $50,000!信息词对应的,都是属于这种类型。
2. 逻辑推理。
逻辑推理是通过对句子间和上下文之间逻辑关系的理解而推断出正确答案。其中,逻辑关系主要包括因果关系、转折关系、对比关系、并列关系等。逻辑推理题需要考生全面把握上下文,难度较大,考生不能将句子独立开,要注意对一个意群、一个段落的整体理解。这篇文章考查逻辑推理的题较多。19题主要是上下文的逻辑关系,推断出是程度副词seriously;27题,根据主句和宾语内容推断出是as;还有35题,通过通读全文和位于末端尾句推断出来这是一个总结全文的主题句。
