12、82 percent from January to August this year compared to the same period last year.A total of 71,497 forest fires were registered in the country in the first eight months of 2019,up from 39,194 in the same period in 2018,INPE said.“We estimate that the forest areas in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest

15、 2 probably mean?AIncreasing.BRelieving.CIgnoring.DImproving.B词义猜测题。根据第二段第三、四句可知,大片的热带雨林在世界生态系统中扮演着重要的角色,因为它们吸收热量,而不是将热量反射回大气中;此外,热带雨林还储存二氧化碳并制造氧气,以确保更少的二氧化碳被释放。由此可知,热带雨林能够减轻气候变化带来的影响。故可推知画线词的含义与“relieving”的含义相近,故选B。2What can we learn from Thomass and Antnios words?AThe biodiversity makes the rainfo
16、rest unique.BThe rainforest fires result in serious consequences.CThe global climate crisis brings more rainforest fires.DThe dry weather leads to the rainforest fires.B推理判断题。根据第三段中Thomas所说的话“Any forest destroyed is a threat to biodiversity and people”以及Antnio所说的话“In the midst of the global climate
17、crisis,we cannot afford more damage to a major source of oxygen and biodiversity”可知,Thomas认为任何森林的破坏都是对生物多样性和人们的威胁,Antnio认为在全球气候危机的情况下,我们承担不起氧气和生物多样性的主要来源(即亚马逊雨林)被更多破坏的后果。由此可推知,两人意在表明,雨林大火导致了严重的后果。故选B。 【干扰项分析】根据上述分析可知,两人并没有强调生物多样性成就了雨林的独特性,故A项表述错误。3Why does the author list the numbers in Paragraph 4?
18、ATo prove the importance of the rainforest.BTo show the reason for forest fires.CTo explain the process of the research.DTo present the reduction in rainforest areas.D推理判断题。根据第四段第一句中的“the number of forest fires in Brazil quickly increased”和第三句中的“the forest areas in the Brazilian Amazon rainforest ha
19、ve decreased by between 20 and 30 percent”可推知,第四段列举数字是为了说明,亚马逊雨林由于森林火灾的影响,其面积减少了一些。故选D。4What does this passage mainly talk about?AThe climate change crisis is worsening.BThe forest areas are on the decline.C“The lungs of the world” is burning.DThe worlds ecosystem is under attack.C主旨大意题。文章第一段为文章的总述部
20、分,表明本年席卷亚马逊雨林的火灾将加剧气候变化危机,威胁生物多样性;第二至第五段介绍了亚马逊雨林火灾对生物多样性以及森林面积等的影响,其中第四段又突出强调亚马逊雨林火灾数量显著增加。由此可知C项符合题意。.完形填空(2020湖北省部分重点中学第一次联考)I just took part in my first MidAutumn Festival celebration in China._1_ a week after arriving for my graduate studies,I was kind of homesickmemories of past _2_ back in Ken
