Questions 14-18

14.What did the 2006 discovery of the animal bone reveal about the lynx?

答案：D

題目解析：原文提到之前人們認(rèn)為這種大型貓科動(dòng)物是6000年前在英國(guó)滅絕的，但是2006年這些動(dòng)物骨頭的出現(xiàn)證實(shí)這種動(dòng)物和神秘的llewyn是同一物種，如果是這樣，那么這種動(dòng)物的滅絕日期就往前提了5000年。也就是說，這個(gè)物種存在的時(shí)間比人們之前認(rèn)為的要長(zhǎng)，因此本題答案為D。

15.What point does the writer make about large predators in the third paragraph?

答案：A

題目解析：第三段的后三句“One of the most striking findings of modern ecology is that ecosystems without large predators behave in completely different ways from those that retain them. Some of them drive dynamic processes that resonate through the whole food chain, creating niches for hundreds of species that might otherwise struggle to survive. The killers turn out to be bringers of life”，提到有無大型捕食動(dòng)物的兩種生態(tài)系統(tǒng)其表現(xiàn)完全不同，捕食動(dòng)物驅(qū)動(dòng)著能影響整個(gè)食物鏈的動(dòng)態(tài)進(jìn)程，為成百上千個(gè)原本可能掙扎求存的物種創(chuàng)造出了生存的一席之地，殺手最終變成了生命的賦予者，因此本題答案為A。

16.What does the writer suggest about British conservation in the fourth paragraph?

答案：C

題目解析：第四段前兩句提到英國(guó)保護(hù)環(huán)境的做法，隨機(jī)挑選一些植物及動(dòng)物組合在一起，然后花精力、費(fèi)用阻止它們發(fā)生變化，阻止環(huán)境變化，后面兩句說到生態(tài)系統(tǒng)并不僅僅是保持物種數(shù)量，而是保持物種內(nèi)部動(dòng)態(tài)的、變化的關(guān)系。說明作者對(duì)英國(guó)的做法是持否定態(tài)度的，因此本題答案為C。

17.Protecting large areas of the sea from commercial fishing would result in

答案：A

題目解析：根據(jù)題目中l(wèi)arge areas of the sea from commercial fishing定位到第五段，提到禁止在一些海域進(jìn)行商業(yè)捕魚行為，這種政策能大大增加周圍海域的捕魚量，如果捕魚業(yè)堅(jiān)持在每一寸海域進(jìn)行捕魚活動(dòng)，則沒有地方可以進(jìn)行繁殖，這樣反而更損害捕魚業(yè)的利益。說明禁止在某些海域進(jìn)行商業(yè)捕魚其實(shí)是更符合捕漁業(yè)的利益，因此本題答案為A。

18.According to the author, what distinguishes rewilding from other environmental campaigns?

答案：C

題目解析：由第六段可知“重歸鄉(xiāng)野”運(yùn)動(dòng)所展示的前景更為光明，傳達(dá)的信息更為積極，因此本題答案為C。
