Ⅰ.阅读理解AAfter years of heated debate，gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park.Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park.By last year，the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves.Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States，but they were gradually displaced by human

development.By the 1920s，wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone

area.They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada，where there were fewer humans around.The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results.Deer and elk populations—major food sources(来源)for the wolf—grew rapidly.These animals

consumed large amounts of vegetation(植被)，which reduced plant diversity in the

park.In the absence of wolves，coyote populations also grew quickly.The coyotes

killed a large percentage of the park's red foxes，and completely drove away the park's beavers.As early as 1966，biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves.The U．S.Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf

packs in Yellowstone.Today，the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is

fitting in at Yellowstone.Elk，deer，and coyote populations are down，while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。以前在黄石地区随处可见的灰狼消失了。

灰狼的消失引发了一系列生态问题，生物学家建议重新引入狼群，但附近农场主

反对。政府花了近30年时间研究计划重新引入狼群，这一案例对其他地区也有借鉴意义。1．What is the text mainly about?

A．Wildlife research in the United States.

B．Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.

C．The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.

D．The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.

D　[主旨大意题。文章围绕重新将灰狼引入黄石公园展开讨论，故选D项。

A项“美国的野生生物调查”过于宽泛；B项“黄石地区的植物种类”与主

题不符；C项“农场主和灰狼之间的冲突”以偏概全。]2．What does the underlined word“displaced”in Paragraph 2 mean?

A．Tested. B．Separated.

C．Forced out.D．Tracked down.

C　[词义猜测题。根据上文可知，灰狼曾经随处可见，再结合后文wolves

had practically disappeared可知与displaced意思最接近的是C项“封杀出局，消

灭掉”。displace意为“取代，替代”。test测试；separate分开；track down追查到，均与语境不符。]

3．What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about?

A．Damage to local ecology.

B．A decline in the park's income.

C．Preservation of vegetation.

D．An increase in the variety of animals.

A　[推理判断题。由第三段可知，灰狼的消失产生了很多意想不到的结果。

鹿群及丛林狼的数量快速增长，前者导致植被破坏，后者杀死大量红狐狸并将河

狸赶出公园。由此可知，灰狼的消失导致当地的生态失去平衡，故选A项。B项“公园收入下降”，无中生有；C项“植被保护”及D项“动物种类增

加”均与原文相悖。]4．What is the author's attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project?

A．Doubtful.B．Positive.

C．Disapproving.D．Uncaring.

B　[推理判断题。由最后一段可知，灰狼回归后，鹿群及丛林狼的数量减少了，而河狸和红狐狸又回来了，再由a valuable experiment to help等可推断出作者

对于黄石狼项目持肯定态度，故选B项。doubtful怀疑的；disapproving不支持的；uncaring不关心的。]BWork and life are always full of stress. How do you usually deal with your stress? Have you ever thought of doing housework? Do you think doing housework is helpful in dealing with stress? According to some psychologists, doing housework like washing dirty clothes can really make people relaxed.

“Doing simple housework such as cleaning windows or ironing clothes is a good way to face our stress without taking any medicine，” says Carol Clark，a successful psychologist in New York. She often advises people who are under lots of stress to try
