89、s the amount of sea ice.No wonder that the US.Fish and Wildlife Service identified the rapid decline of sea ice as“the primary threat to polar bears” _2_ Removing even a single species can have potentially serious consequences.Polar bears are top of the line predators (捕食者) in areas where they live.
90、All large predators perform a very important function._3_ When an animal group loses its natural predators, overpopulation, sickness and mass dieoffs can result.A sudden increase in population of Arctic seals would have a direct effect on the prey of seals and could reduce numbers of certain types o

95、境。2选A根据空后一句及后面的举例可知，任何一个物种的缺失都可能会引起严重的后果。故A项“生态系统高度依赖于它的所有部分”符合语境。3选D根据空前一句及空后内容可知，所有的捕食者都在自己所生存的领域中扮演着重要角色，一旦失去它们，会导致很多问题的出现。故该空承上启下，说明的应是捕食者所扮演的重要角色，故D项“他们能帮助调节和控制其他物种的数量”符合语境。4选F根据空前一句及空后的内容可知，海豹数量的激增会导致鱼类数量的减少，会给人类带来直接影响，F项(人类可能会与海豹竞争食物鱼类)直接承接上文“a direct effect on humans”，并与下文最终影响人类的食物供应和渔业的发展衔接
96、自然。故F项符合语境。5选G根据空后一句可知，本段主要说明的是保护北极熊的措施。故G项“有一些事情可能有助于减缓(气候)变暖的趋势，拯救北极熊”符合语境。空后的“These”与G项中的“some things”的对应关系亦是提示。.短文改错Last weekend I went fishing with my cousins by a river, where is two miles away from my home by bike.When we were about to return for home, we found one of our bike lost.We were re
