题目

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 Cities are diverse ecosystems. In addition to visitors from the wild, such as coyotes（丛林狼） in Los Angeles or boars （野猪）in Berlin, a large number of species share our urban areas. As our cities spread, we need to think about what it is like for other species to have human neighbors. Because cities are built for humans, they do not always provide suitable habitats for wildlife. For example, most city parks are kept neat and tidy so that humans will find them beautiful. But when we cut grass or plant flowers, we destroy natural habitats. Our actions sometimes help other species. When a bridge in Austin, Texas was repaired, engineers added small gaps running along the length of its bottom. This made a good home for bats, and soon the bridge was the home of thousands of bats. At first, people were afraid of the bats and tried to get rid of them. Now, they have come to value their winged neighbors. The bats are a tourist attraction, and they eat lots of bugs every night. There are also structures built with the aim of bringing wildlife into the city. The Beijing Olympic Forest Park is a good example. The park used native plants and created open, natural spaces for wildlife. The result is a zone in Beijing with over 160 species of birds. In many ways, the park is the opposite of a zoo. Instead of being kept in cages, wildlife can move about freely. Another example is a 2011 proposal for a tall "Birdscraper" building in New York. The building is intended to protect birds and fight pollution at the same time. It would be in the middle of a lake, birds would sit on it, and their droppings would fall into the water. The droppings would help wafer plants grow well and then create oxygen through photosynthesis （光合作用）. If we learn to share our space, we can become better neighbors to the wildlife around us. If we do not, more species will become extinct and our own future will be endangered. （1） What can we infer from the first paragraph? A . Other species like to have human neighbors. B . There are many kinds of wildlife living in city areas. C . Coyotes or boars always attack cities like Los Angeles or Berlin. D . People should think about their neighbors when having visitors. （2） Why did engineers design small gaps under the Austin bridge? A . To get rid of the bats. B . To make it an attraction. C . To help other species to live conveniently. D . To make it convenient for bugs to go through. （3） What is the 4th paragraph mainly about? A . The structure of wildlife zoo in Beijing. B . The parks built to grow native plants. C . The wildlife of Beijing Olympic Forest Park. D . The structures built to attract wildlife into city. （4） Which word can replace the underlined word "droppings" in the 5th paragraph? A . waste B . voice C . rubbish D . appearance 答案： B C D A
