Question

【題目】Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words

Everyone knows animals are our friends. So we should be friendly to them. But some people kill the rare animals, such as pandas, golden monkeys and so on in order to get money. It will cause these animals to disappear soon.

Perhaps the most famous rare animal is panda. Twenty years ago it was nearly extinct (滅絕的). Now, its n【1】 are growing again. It is even a symbol for wildlife conservation (保存，保護(hù)). But many other species have not been as l【2】 as the panda. Some are already extinct. Today, many more are in serious danger. This is because man hurts them and d【3】 their habitat. Is it too late to save wildlife?

A serious habitat problem arises (出現(xiàn)) because of pollution or o【4】 new lands. Habitats take many years to grow again. When the wild animals lose their homes, the natural balance is also changed. If one animal, bird, or insect d【5】, all the others suffer, too.

This is what is happening in the forests of South America. Africa and Asia. Habitats and animals are disappearing in Europe, too. Since 1947 in Britain, for example, 50% of the woods, low wet land, and 95% of meadows have disappeared. And what has taken the place of these green, natural places? Houses, farms, cities, streets, roads, and factories. Because of this (and pollution too) several British species are dying.

Then, what is the s【6】 ? There is only one way to save wild animals and wild habitats – conservation. This means man should protect animals in danger by establishing law, opening more national parks, building fewer new roads, planting more forests, and cutting pollution. If not, many wild animals will soon have just one habitat—the zoo!\

If everyone is involved in the p【7】 of wild life, we’re sure man will be a good friend of animals rather than their enemy.

【解析】

本文講述了目前野生動(dòng)物面臨的情況，呼吁我們要保護(hù)瀕臨的野生動(dòng)物，與動(dòng)物做朋友而不是做它們的敵人。

【1】句意：20年前，它幾乎要滅絕�，F(xiàn)在，它們的數(shù)量正在增長。

its是形容詞性物主代詞，后接名詞，根據(jù)“Twenty years ago it was nearly extinct”20年前它幾乎要滅絕，和空格后growing，可知是數(shù)量正在增長，所以空格處是number。故答案為number。

【2】句意：但是，許多其他品種的動(dòng)物就沒有像熊貓這么幸運(yùn)。

固定搭配not as…as 不如……，中間接形容詞或副詞原級(jí)，be是系動(dòng)詞，后接形容詞，所以空格處是形容詞原級(jí)。根據(jù)“It is even a symbol for wildlife conservation”和“Some are already extinct”，可知，一些滅絕的動(dòng)物不像熊貓這樣幸運(yùn)能被保護(hù)起來，所以空格處填lucky。故答案為lucky。

【3】句意：如今，一些更多的動(dòng)物面臨更加危險(xiǎn)的處境。這是因?yàn)槿祟悅�害它們，并破壞它們的棲息地�?/span>

and是并列關(guān)系連詞，and前是謂語動(dòng)詞hurts+賓語them，空格處也是謂語動(dòng)詞三單形式�？崭裉幒�habitat表示棲息地，可推測(cè)空格處用動(dòng)詞destroy表示破壞，符合句意。故答案為destroys。

【4】句意：因?yàn)槲廴竞烷_發(fā)新的土地，所以棲息地一系列的問題就出現(xiàn)了。

because of后接名詞或名詞詞組，所以空格處要用動(dòng)詞ing形式。根據(jù)句意，是因?yàn)槲廴竞烷_發(fā)新的土地，導(dǎo)致了棲息地產(chǎn)生了一系列的問題，所以空格處用動(dòng)詞open+ing形式。故答案為opening。

【5】句意：如果一個(gè)動(dòng)物，一只鳥或一個(gè)昆蟲消失了，那其他的動(dòng)物也會(huì)慢慢消失。

根據(jù)句子結(jié)構(gòu)，空格處填寫的是謂語動(dòng)詞，主語是單數(shù)，所以謂語動(dòng)詞要用三單形式。根據(jù)“This is what is happening in the forests of South America. Africa and Asia. Habitats and animals are disappearing in Europe, too”，講述的是棲息地和動(dòng)物正在慢慢消失的事情也發(fā)生在別的地區(qū)，可知，空格處是動(dòng)詞disappears。故答案為disappears。

【6】句意：然后，解決方法是什么呢？拯救野生動(dòng)物和棲息地的唯一方法就是保護(hù)他們。

定冠詞the，后接名詞。謂語動(dòng)詞是is，所以空格處是可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)或不可數(shù)名詞。根據(jù)下文“There is only one way”，講述的是辦法，可知，此處問的是解決方案是什么。故答案為solution。

【7】句意：如果每個(gè)人都參與去保護(hù)野生動(dòng)物，我們確定人類將成為動(dòng)物的朋友而不是敵人。

定冠詞the，后接名詞。根據(jù) “we’re sure man will be a good friend of animals rather than their enemy”我們確定人類將成為動(dòng)物的好朋友而不是他們的敵人，可知，空格處所在句子是在提倡我們每個(gè)人都參與進(jìn)來去保護(hù)野生動(dòng)物，所以空格處是protection。故答案為protection。
