While this may seem a little concern, it is in fact a significant environmental problem. The shortened hibernation period could actually lead to significant declines in the population of several species. Some of the first concrete evidence of the phenomenon came from Colorado, where researchers at the Rocky Mountain Biological lab have been observing marmot(旱獭)hibernation behavior since the 1970s. In the early days of their studies, marmots generally hibernated several weeks into the month of May. Nowadays, however, temperatures in the area have risen by 2. 5 degrees Fahrenheit, and the marmots wake up about a month earlier. At least the marmots are still hibernating. Several other animals have not been hibernating at all recently. Brown bears in the Spanish Cantabrian Mountains did not hibernate last year. In parts of the United States, chipmunks(花鼠)also skipped the hibernation period. The bears seem to have survived without losing many individuals. The chipmunks, however, were not so lucky. Many of the animals died of starvation during the winter. The problem with animals waking up early, or skipping hibernation altogether, lies with the creatures metabolism(新陈代谢). When the animals hibernate, their metabolism drops significantly. The animals heart rate slows, and they require very little energy to live. When the animals awake from their winter slumber, their metabolism returns to normal. But while their metabolism may be as active as it was before hibernation, food sources arent as available as they were before. A marmot may wake up when temperatures get warmer, thinking its spring, but plants will not have got the amount of sun they need to signal their spring period of growth. So until the plants grow, the marmots have no reliable food source. Many scientists believe the problem will continue to get worse. In addition to changes in hibernation patterns, some believe that other animals will also begin to change their migration patterns or begin to give birth earlier. For many biologists, thats a scary prospect. Terry Root, an animal expert at Stanford University, said, “I do think what we will be facing is the extinction of many species. ”【文章大意】全球变暖带来的连锁反应是多方面的, 其中之一就是导致一些冬眠动物的冬眠期缩短, 这会给这些动物带来巨大的影响。5. What is the viewpoint of the writer? A. Global warming will continue to get worse as time goes on. B. Global warming will lead to shortened hibernation of some animals. C. Shortened hibernation will result in declines in the population of animals. D. Some animals will skip hibernation altogether. 【解析】选C。细节理解题。由第一段最终一句话可知答案为C。6. The writer sets the example of the marmot so as to. A. explain that global warming influences animals hibernationB. indicate that the weather gets warmer and warmer nowC. show that the weather in the United States is quite differentD. say some animals do not hibernate now due to warm weather【解析】选A。细节理解题。依据其次段最终一句话可知作者是想借这个例子来说明全球变暖使得动物的冬眠期缩短了。7. The underlined word“slumber”in the fourth paragraph means“”. A. weatherB. activityC. nestD. sleep【解析】选D。词义猜想题。联系本句中的awake from可知答案为D项。8. Why cant marmots find enough food when they wake up? A. Because there are too many marmots in the wild now. B. Because plants havent received enough sunlight for spring growth. C. Because winter days end much earlier than before. D. Because more and more animal species skip hibernation now. 【解析】选B。细节理解题。由倒数其次段中的but plants will not have got the amount of sun they need to signal their spring period of growth可知答案为B项。9. Terry Root holds a(n)attitude towards the future of animals.

Children dream big dreams, but there are three barriers to realizing dreams. They often kill them before they ever have a chance to grow. The SelfImmediately following the birth of a big dream, a negative self-talk takes over and gives all the reasons why it cannot happen. This inside voice is the ego(自我). Its there for protecting and should be listened to. 2Most people are influenced by the inside voice. Thats why only a handful of people make their dreams come true. 3Family and friends are a lot like the ego. They want to protect those they love, so they will often list all the reasons why the big dreams wont come true. Sometimes, family and friends destroy dreams of those they love most, out of their own fear of being left behind. The WorldIf one gets past the first two barriers, one has to face the world. 4In the past, big dreamers were locked up and sometimes even killed when they were shown to the world. Fortunately, in most of the world today, big dreamers just get laughed at. The way to realize a big dream is with confidence and action. When children have confidence and then take action, they will be ready to accept any failure. The truth is that every great dreamer whose dreams have never seen the light of success knows failure well. 5A. Family and FriendsB. How Big Dreams DieC. Does a big dream show ones future? D. They simply fail until they succeed. E. Sometimes it is right, but more often it is wrong. F. It is the last and the most terrible barrier. G. And their big dream is to be a rock star or a famous artist. 【文章大意】每一个人都怀有宏大的幻想, 但是只有少数人才会实现自己的远大抱负。本文主要介绍了造成大多人幻想无法实现的一些内在的和外在的因素。1. 【解析】选C。上下文规律联系题。依据空格前面的问题和后面的问题, 从形式上看都是问句, 另外主题都是围绕a big dream发问的, 同时结合同一词的规律, 可知选C。2. 【解析】选E。上下文规律联系题。依据前面的Its there for protecting and should be listened to. 指自我的疼惜, 而结合上下文, 可知这种自我的疼惜有的时候是正确的, 有的时候是错误的, 因此选E。3. 【解析】选A。段落标题题。这种形式主要是对于下一个段落的主旨概括。主要从下一段中查找关键核心词等。依据段落中毁灭的Family and friends are a lot like the ego. 可知这一段要争辩家人和伴侣对于一个人幻想的影响, 因此选A。4. 【解析】选F。上下文规律联系题。依据第一段中提到有三个影响因素, 而这个空格前面的段落已经涉及了两个因素。再依据空格前面的If one gets past the first two barriers, one has to face the world. 可知这里要争辩的是最终一个因素, 因此选F。5. 【解析】选D。上下文规律联系题。依据同义词的方法, D中的fail与前面一句话中的failure全都, 依据代词指代的方法, D中的they指空格前面提到的every great dreamer, 因此选D。
