全国卷 高一 英语（下册）Wildlife protection 动物保护专项练习

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 For centuries, the Milu deer lived in the wetlands along the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. By the late 19th century, however, the animals had almost died out in China because of hunting and the loss of their natural habitat. Only a small herd kept in a European park saved the species from extinction. In 1985, twenty-two Milu deer were brought back to China and released into the Nanhaizi Milu Park near Beijing. At first the animals were weak and had to be fed by keepers. Gradually they grew used to the wild and began to reproduce. Later, some of the deer were moved to the Dafeng Milu National Nature Reserve in Jiangsu, where large areas of wetland had been restored in order to provide them with enough food and space. Thanks to these efforts, the number of Milu deer in China has risen to over ten thousand. Local villagers now work as rangers, and schools in the area organize nature lessons for students. Scientists say that the return of the Milu deer has also improved the whole wetland, because the deer's grazing helps water plants grow and birds come back to the area. What is the main idea of the passage?",

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 Many wild animals around the world are in danger. In the past two centuries, hundreds of species have died out completely, and thousands more are endangered. One of the main reasons is the loss of habitat. When forests are cut down and rivers are polluted, animals lose the places where they live and find food. In order to protect wildlife, governments and volunteers have set up nature reserves. Living in a reserve, animals can stay away from hunters and have enough space to raise their young. Some people also protect animals by educating the public. For example, they tell villagers that pandas are endangered animals and that protecting bamboo forests is protecting the pandas themselves. Protecting wildlife is not easy, and it takes time. However, if everyone makes an effort, more animals can be saved from dying out. Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage?

Read the following passage and choose the best answer. In the mountains of Sichuan, a group of researchers has been working for years to save the giant panda, one of the most famous endangered animals in the world. Pandas once lived across large parts of southern China, but their habitat has been cut into small pieces by farming and road building. As a result, many pandas were dying out. To protect the animals, the Chinese government set up a number of nature reserves. The researchers, most of whom are local villagers, plant bamboo every spring. They do this in order to provide enough food for the pandas that live in the protected area. They also build green bridges over busy roads so that the animals can move safely from one forest to another. Their work has paid off. The number of wild pandas has slowly increased, and the reserves have become a model that other countries now follow. "We protect the habitat first," says Dr. Li, who leads the team. "If the forest is healthy, the animals will be safe." What does the word "They" in the sentence "They do this in order to provide enough food..." refer to?
