Meet Incredible Conservation Heroes Saving Wildlife from Extinction
Anne Savage
Dr.Savage founded a conservation program to protect cotton-top tamarins （棉顶狨猴）.She pioneered in the development of new technologies to study the animal in the Colombian forest.She also helped conduct a study that found only 7，500 individuals remained.As a result，the International Union for Conservation of Nature changed the classification of cotton-top tamarins from Endangered to Critically Endangered，which brought the species to more people's notice.
Elena Bykova
Having majored in biology，Bykova has a good knowledge of the saiga antelope （赛加羚羊）.As Executive Secretary of the Saiga Conservation Alliance，an international organization，Bykova works to save the antelope.Illegal shooting is the single biggest threat，and Bykova concentrates on raising public awareness of the danger，finding alternative livelihood opportunities for local communities，and protecting saiga habitats.
Jeanne Tarrant
Frogs are astonishingly diverse and beautiful for Dr.Tarrant.Over the years，she has helped put the spotlight on many highly threatened species of frogs that face extinction due to habitat loss，climate change，and hunts by their animal enemies.No wonder she is called the "Frog Lady" of South Africa!
Marilyn Connell
Living only in the Mary River of Queensland，the Mary River turtle （龟） takes in oxygen in two ways.Being hunted by other wildlife is the Mary River turtle's biggest threat.Connell and her team investigate the threats to the species and take measures to protect the eggs and newborns from being hunted，ensuring the species has a chance to survive.

Born in 1902，Harry Beck was an English engineering draftsman （制图员） who brought about a small revolution in the early 1930s when he created a completely new map of the London Underground.
Before Beck's design，early maps were usually drawn to a geographically accurate scale （比例）.Map designers simply placed the subway lines on standard maps of the city streets.These maps clearly showed the subway lines that reached the areas outside the centre of London，but they made it difficult to make out the busy lines that joined directly under central London.
In the 1930s，Beck came up with a solution that would not take the geographical accuracy into account.He created a map that was a scaled-down linear diagram of the subway lines.More a basic outline of the lines than a true-to-life map，it didn't tell travelers about how far it actually was between two points.Beck's map had a clean structure with coloured lines.His idea was to create the plainest guide to show travelers how to get from one station to another.
It's not clear what inspired him to start the project；he wasn't asked to do it，but likely developed his design in his free time，while between jobs.It was more a presentation of his being creative，in seeing a problem and coming up with an answer to it，than a response to public demand.
His design was then presented to the London Passenger Transport Board，whose members refused to accept it，feeling that not showing relative distances between stations was silly and unreasonable.Still，after a time，in order to increase subway ridership and therefore earn more money，the Board decided to print a limited number of copies.Gradually，Beck's map became a huge success.
For most of his life，Beck continued to make small improvements to the diagram，but he kept its basic designs and ideas.His clear diagrammatic method of mapping has been generally accepted and followed in the field of information design not only in London but also around the world.
4. What is the disadvantage of early subway maps？ ______
A. They were not to scale. B. They were hard to draw.
C. They were not user-friendly. D. They were seldom updated.
5. Which aspect of a subway map did Beck focus on？ ______
A. Its simplicity. B. Its vivid details.
C. Its completeness. D. Its geographical accuracy.
6. What do we know about Beck's map from paragraphs 4 and 5？ ______
A. It was created accidentally.
B. It was an immediate success.
C. It was a reflection of his creativity.
D. It was designed to meet public need.
7. How did Beck contribute to the world？ ______
A. He changed the construction of subways.
B. He inspired designers to improve the subway.
C. He made the first scaled-down linear map.
D. He provided a model for the design of subway maps.
C
Pieter Bruegel's 1565 realistic painting The Harvesters hangs at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. "The work describes farmers cutting wheat nearly as tall as they are，" Ghent University biologist Ive De Smet says. "Nowadays，if you walk through a wheat field，you basically see wheat is about knee-high，which is a consequence of selective breeding （培育） from the second half of the 20th century." De Smet says he's teaming up with art historian David Vergauwen of Amarant to look at things where they can spot differences in shape，in color，and in size.Wheat is just one example of how historical artwork can help track the transformation of food crops over time.
Friends since childhood，they took interest in plants in artwork and began with a visit to the Hermitage Museum in Russia — where they noticed an odd-looking watermelon in an early-17th-century painting by Flemish artist Frans Snyders.
"So if you think of a watermelon，you cut it through，it should be dark red on the inside.But that one appeared to be pale and white." De Smet assumed the painter had done a poor job.But Vergauwen said， "This is one of the best painters ever from that era.So if he paints it like that，that's the way it must have been." Other paintings showed that both red and white watermelons were raised during the 17th century.
The team hopes to set up an online research database of historical plant artwork.They create a social media hashtag （主题标签） for it.Anyone could send pictures of relevant artwork and details of plants when they visit a museum or exhibit through the hashtag.But，they add，the sources need to be realistic. "If you're going to use，for example，Picasso to understand how a pear looked，you might be misled."
8. What can we learn from De Smet's words in paragraph 1？ ______
A. Humans have mainly fed on wheat since 1565.
B. Selective breeding affects agricultural structure.
C. Wheat has gone through great changes in height.
D. The scene in The Harvesters may be unbelievable.
9. What is Vergauwen's attitude to the watermelon painted by Frans Snyders？ ______
A. Curious. B. Disapproving. C. Doubtful. D. Favorable.
10. Why is the social media hashtag created？ ______
A. To collect more paintings for their database.
B. To encourage people to focus on art.
C. To advertise their research database.
D. To share some historical plant artwork.
11. What is the text mainly about？ ______
A. Ancient paintings focused on food crops.
B. Historical artwork reveals agricultural information.
C. Two men create a database of plant artwork.
D. Plants today are different from their ancestors.
D
We humans often navigate （导航） using road signs and GPS.But what about elephants？Connie Allen，a behavioural ecologist at the University of Exeter in the U.K.，said "the elephants navigate over long distances using their unbelievable memories"，which makes others consider that an elephant will never forget.But it's also been suggested here and there that maybe is extremely important for these long-distance movements.
Allen and her colleagues checked that idea by testing African elephants' ability to identify a very special smell：the smell of pee （尿）.You see，an elephant pees a lot — some 12 to 15 gallons a day — and that pee can contain a series of chemical signals.
But first，they needed some pee.So they headed for a spot along Botswana's Boteti River and waited.They waited for elephants to pee and，within 20 minutes，went and collected these fresh pee samples.Then they set up cameras on seven paths which the elephants usually walked along.After observing the elephants' natural behaviour on the paths，they noticed that the majority of the elephants checked smells along the paths — especially elephants travelling alone，which is an indication，the researchers said，that smells may serve as signposts along the paths.
Next，they placed those pee samples along the paths.And they found that for at least two days，passing elephants trained their trunks on the samples，especially samples from mature adults，which is another indication that smells might be an effective navigational signal.Their findings appeared in the journal Animal Behaviour.
Based on these results，they hope conservationists might be able to use elephant pee as a decoy （诱饵）.If we can trick elephants into thinking other elephants are going this way，maybe we can redirect them away from where they are coming into conflict with humans at the moment.
12. What does the underlined word "olfaction" in paragraph 1 mean？ ______
A. The roadside signpost. B. The sense of smell.
C. The long-term memory. D. The sense of direction.
13. How did researchers get their conclusions？ ______
A. By doing field research. B. By analyzing causes and effects.
C. By making comparisons. D. By doing laboratory experiments.
14. What might be a potential benefit of the findings according to the text？ ______
A. Helping elephants to find other companions.
B. Inspiring new research directions in elephants.
C. Raising public awareness of elephant protection.
D. Making elephants and humans coexist peacefully.
15. Which of the following could be the best title for the text？ ______
A. African Elephants Show Personality-based Movements
B. Elephants Are Born With Excellent Ability to Navigate
C. African Elephants May Use Pee as a Road Sign
D. Elephants Have a Good Memory for Roads

The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked，"Hey，girl，you want to have the noodles？"
"Oh，yes…，but I don't have money on me..." she replied.
"That's nothing.I'll treat you today，" said the man，"come in." The seller brought her a bowl of noodles，whose smell was so attractive.As she was eating，Jenny cried silently.
"What is it？" asked the man kindly.
"Nothing，actually I was just touched by your kindness!" said Jenny as she dried her tears，"Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles，while my mother，drove me out of the house.She showed no care for me.She is so cruel compared to a stranger!!"
Hearing the words，the seller smiled，"Girl，do you really think so？I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot.But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby.Can you number the times she cooked for you？Have you expressed your thanks to her？"
Jenny sat there，speechless；she remembered mother's familiar face and weathered hands. "Why did I not think of that？A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel thankful，but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me."
On the way home，Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

12~15.【答案】B、A、D、C
【解析】（1）词义猜测题。根据下文Allen and her colleagues checked that idea by testing African elephants' ability to identify a very special smell：the smell of pee （尿）.You see，an elephant pees a lot — some 12 to 15 gallons a day — and that pee can contain a series of chemical signals.（艾伦和她的同事通过测试非洲象识别一种非常特殊的气味的能力来验证这一想法：尿的气味。你看，大象尿得很多——大约每天12到15加仑——这些尿可以包含一系列化学信号。）以及这个实验过程可知，Connie Allen和同事们通过测试大象对路边大象尿液的感知能力来进行研究，最终发现，大象可以利用尿液的气味进行远距离活动，由此可知，嗅觉对大象的远距离活动尤为重要。olfaction的含义应为"嗅觉"。A．The roadside signpost路边路标；B．The sense of smell嗅觉；C．The long-term memory长期记忆；D．The sense of direction方向感。故选B。
（2）推理判断题。根据第三段的They waited for elephants to pee and，within 20 minutes，went and collected these fresh pee samples.Then they set up cameras on seven paths which the elephants usually walked along. （他们等大象尿尿，20分钟后去收集这些新鲜的尿样本。然后，他们在大象通常会走的七条道路上设置了摄像机。）和第四段的Next，they placed those pee samples along the paths. （接下来，他们将这些尿液样本沿着小路放置。）可知，研究人员是通过野外研究的方式得出结论的。故选A。
（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段Based on these results，they hope conservationists might be able to use elephant pee as a decoy （诱饵）.If we can trick elephants into thinking other elephants are going this way，maybe we can redirect them away from where they are coming into conflict with humans at the moment.（基于这些结果，他们希望环保人士可以用大象的尿液作为诱饵。如果我们能哄骗大象，让它们以为其他大象正朝这条路走，也许我们就能引导它们离开与人类发生冲突的地方。）可知，研究结果的潜在益处是使人类和大象能够和平共处。故选D。
（4）标题归纳题。综观全文，尤其是第三段中的especially elephants travelling alone，which is an indication，the researchers said，that smells may serve as signposts along the paths.（特别是大象独自旅行，研究人员说，这是一个迹象，气味可能是道路上的路标。）可知，本文主要讲述的是行为生态学家Connie Allen和同事们通过研究发现非洲象根据尿液的气味进行远距离活动。C项"非洲象可能用尿作为路标"最适合作为标题。故选C。
本文是一篇说明文。行为生态学家Connie Allen认为大象凭借惊人的记忆力进行远距离导航，但也有人提出，大象在进行远距离活动时嗅觉尤为重要。为了验证这一观点，Connie Allen和她的同事们开展了研究，证明确实如此。

Born in 1902，Harry Beck was an English engineering draftsman （制图员） who brought about a small revolution in the early 1930s when he created a completely new map of the London Underground.
Before Beck's design，early maps were usually drawn to a geographically accurate scale （比例）.Map designers simply placed the subway lines on standard maps of the city streets.These maps clearly showed the subway lines that reached the areas outside the centre of London，but they made it difficult to make out the busy lines that joined directly under central London.
In the 1930s，Beck came up with a solution that would not take the geographical accuracy into account.He created a map that was a scaled-down linear diagram of the subway lines.More a basic outline of the lines than a true-to-life map，it didn't tell travelers about how far it actually was between two points.Beck's map had a clean structure with coloured lines.His idea was to create the plainest guide to show travelers how to get from one station to another.
It's not clear what inspired him to start the project；he wasn't asked to do it，but likely developed his design in his free time，while between jobs.It was more a presentation of his being creative，in seeing a problem and coming up with an answer to it，than a response to public demand.
His design was then presented to the London Passenger Transport Board，whose members refused to accept it，feeling that not showing relative distances between stations was silly and unreasonable.Still，after a time，in order to increase subway ridership and therefore earn more money，the Board decided to print a limited number of copies.Gradually，Beck's map became a huge success.
For most of his life，Beck continued to make small improvements to the diagram，but he kept its basic designs and ideas.His clear diagrammatic method of mapping has been generally accepted and followed in the field of information design not only in London but also around the world.
4. What is the disadvantage of early subway maps？ ______
A. They were not to scale. B. They were hard to draw.
C. They were not user-friendly. D. They were seldom updated.
5. Which aspect of a subway map did Beck focus on？ ______
A. Its simplicity. B. Its vivid details.
C. Its completeness. D. Its geographical accuracy.
6. What do we know about Beck's map from paragraphs 4 and 5？ ______
A. It was created accidentally.
B. It was an immediate success.
C. It was a reflection of his creativity.
D. It was designed to meet public need.
7. How did Beck contribute to the world？ ______
A. He changed the construction of subways.
B. He inspired designers to improve the subway.
C. He made the first scaled-down linear map.
D. He provided a model for the design of subway maps.

Pieter Bruegel's 1565 realistic painting The Harvesters hangs at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. "The work describes farmers cutting wheat nearly as tall as they are，" Ghent University biologist Ive De Smet says. "Nowadays，if you walk through a wheat field，you basically see wheat is about knee-high，which is a consequence of selective breeding （培育） from the second half of the 20th century." De Smet says he's teaming up with art historian David Vergauwen of Amarant to look at things where they can spot differences in shape，in color，and in size.Wheat is just one example of how historical artwork can help track the transformation of food crops over time.
Friends since childhood，they took interest in plants in artwork and began with a visit to the Hermitage Museum in Russia — where they noticed an odd-looking watermelon in an early-17th-century painting by Flemish artist Frans Snyders.
"So if you think of a watermelon，you cut it through，it should be dark red on the inside.But that one appeared to be pale and white." De Smet assumed the painter had done a poor job.But Vergauwen said， "This is one of the best painters ever from that era.So if he paints it like that，that's the way it must have been." Other paintings showed that both red and white watermelons were raised during the 17th century.
The team hopes to set up an online research database of historical plant artwork.They create a social media hashtag （主题标签） for it.Anyone could send pictures of relevant artwork and details of plants when they visit a museum or exhibit through the hashtag.But，they add，the sources need to be realistic. "If you're going to use，for example，Picasso to understand how a pear looked，you might be misled."
8. What can we learn from De Smet's words in paragraph 1？ ______
A. Humans have mainly fed on wheat since 1565.
B. Selective breeding affects agricultural structure.
C. Wheat has gone through great changes in height.
D. The scene in The Harvesters may be unbelievable.
9. What is Vergauwen's attitude to the watermelon painted by Frans Snyders？ ______
A. Curious. B. Disapproving. C. Doubtful. D. Favorable.
10. Why is the social media hashtag created？ ______
A. To collect more paintings for their database.
B. To encourage people to focus on art.
C. To advertise their research database.
D. To share some historical plant artwork.
11. What is the text mainly about？ ______
A. Ancient paintings focused on food crops.
B. Historical artwork reveals agricultural information.
C. Two men create a database of plant artwork.
D. Plants today are different from their ancestors.
D
We humans often navigate （导航） using road signs and GPS.But what about elephants？Connie Allen，a behavioural ecologist at the University of Exeter in the U.K.，said "the elephants navigate over long distances using their unbelievable memories"，which makes others consider that an elephant will never forget.But it's also been suggested here and there that maybe is extremely important for these long-distance movements.
Allen and her colleagues checked that idea by testing African elephants' ability to identify a very special smell：the smell of pee （尿）.You see，an elephant pees a lot — some 12 to 15 gallons a day — and that pee can contain a series of chemical signals.
But first，they needed some pee.So they headed for a spot along Botswana's Boteti River and waited.They waited for elephants to pee and，within 20 minutes，went and collected these fresh pee samples.Then they set up cameras on seven paths which the elephants usually walked along.After observing the elephants' natural behaviour on the paths，they noticed that the majority of the elephants checked smells along the paths — especially elephants travelling alone，which is an indication，the researchers said，that smells may serve as signposts along the paths.
Next，they placed those pee samples along the paths.And they found that for at least two days，passing elephants trained their trunks on the samples，especially samples from mature adults，which is another indication that smells might be an effective navigational signal.Their findings appeared in the journal Animal Behaviour.
Based on these results，they hope conservationists might be able to use elephant pee as a decoy （诱饵）.If we can trick elephants into thinking other elephants are going this way，maybe we can redirect them away from where they are coming into conflict with humans at the moment.
12. What does the underlined word "olfaction" in paragraph 1 mean？ ______
A. The roadside signpost. B. The sense of smell.
C. The long-term memory. D. The sense of direction.
13. How did researchers get their conclusions？ ______
A. By doing field research. B. By analyzing causes and effects.
C. By making comparisons. D. By doing laboratory experiments.
14. What might be a potential benefit of the findings according to the text？ ______
A. Helping elephants to find other companions.
B. Inspiring new research directions in elephants.
C. Raising public awareness of elephant protection.
D. Making elephants and humans coexist peacefully.
15. Which of the following could be the best title for the text？ ______
A. African Elephants Show Personality-based Movements
B. Elephants Are Born With Excellent Ability to Navigate

The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked，"Hey，girl，you want to have the noodles？"
"Oh，yes…，but I don't have money on me..." she replied.
"That's nothing.I'll treat you today，" said the man，"come in." The seller brought her a bowl of noodles，whose smell was so attractive.As she was eating，Jenny cried silently.
"What is it？" asked the man kindly.
"Nothing，actually I was just touched by your kindness!" said Jenny as she dried her tears，"Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles，while my mother，drove me out of the house.She showed no care for me.She is so cruel compared to a stranger!!"
Hearing the words，the seller smiled，"Girl，do you really think so？I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot.But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby.Can you number the times she cooked for you？Have you expressed your thanks to her？"
Jenny sat there，speechless；she remembered mother's familiar face and weathered hands. "Why did I not think of that？A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel thankful，but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me."
On the way home，Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.

12~15.【答案】B、A、D、C
【解析】（1）词义猜测题。根据下文Allen and her colleagues checked that idea by testing African elephants' ability to identify a very special smell：the smell of pee （尿）.You see，an elephant pees a lot — some 12 to 15 gallons a day — and that pee can contain a series of chemical signals.（艾伦和她的同事通过测试非洲象识别一种非常特殊的气味的能力来验证这一想法：尿的气味。你看，大象尿得很多——大约每天12到15加仑——这些尿可以包含一系列化学信号。）以及这个实验过程可知，Connie Allen和同事们通过测试大象对路边大象尿液的感知能力来进行研究，最终发现，大象可以利用尿液的气味进行远距离活动，由此可知，嗅觉对大象的远距离活动尤为重要。olfaction的含义应为"嗅觉"。A．The roadside signpost路边路标；B．The sense of smell嗅觉；C．The long-term memory长期记忆；D．The sense of direction方向感。故选B。
（2）推理判断题。根据第三段的They waited for elephants to pee and，within 20 minutes，went and collected these fresh pee samples.Then they set up cameras on seven paths which the elephants usually walked along. （他们等大象尿尿，20分钟后去收集这些新鲜的尿样本。然后，他们在大象通常会走的七条道路上设置了摄像机。）和第四段的Next，they placed those pee samples along the paths. （接下来，他们将这些尿液样本沿着小路放置。）可知，研究人员是通过野外研究的方式得出结论的。故选A。
（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段Based on these results，they hope conservationists might be able to use elephant pee as a decoy （诱饵）.If we can trick elephants into thinking other elephants are going this way，maybe we can redirect them away from where they are coming into conflict with humans at the moment.（基于这些结果，他们希望环保人士可以用大象的尿液作为诱饵。如果我们能哄骗大象，让它们以为其他大象正朝这条路走，也许我们就能引导它们离开与人类发生冲突的地方。）可知，研究结果的潜在益处是使人类和大象能够和平共处。故选D。
（4）标题归纳题。综观全文，尤其是第三段中的especially elephants travelling alone，which is an indication，the researchers said，that smells may serve as signposts along the paths.（特别是大象独自旅行，研究人员说，这是一个迹象，气味可能是道路上的路标。）可知，本文主要讲述的是行为生态学家Connie Allen和同事们通过研究发现非洲象根据尿液的气味进行远距离活动。C项"非洲象可能用尿作为路标"最适合作为标题。故选C。
本文是一篇说明文。行为生态学家Connie Allen认为大象凭借惊人的记忆力进行远距离导航，但也有人提出，大象在进行远距离活动时嗅觉尤为重要。为了验证这一观点，Connie Allen和她的同事们开展了研究，证明确实如此。

（2）仔细审题，明确续写要求
一般短文后面的"注意"都有对此类短文续写的具体要求，如词数限制使用几处标有下划线的关键词语。续写段落的首句提示，这样考生可以做到"心中有数"。
（3）回扣原文，揣摩续写思路
根据文章后面的要求，再次快速阅读短文，抓住文章的思路结合段首的提示语最终确定续写段落的思路。同时结合文章画线词语提示，确定续写段落的内容。
（4）拟写草稿，修改错词病句
在确定了思路和内容之后。最关键的就是结合提示语或者文中画线的关键词拟写草稿。拟写时，注意句子结构的多样性，语言的丰富性，并通过句与句之间连接词的正确使用，使上下文连贯。
