第二部分 阅读理解（满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
While global warming and ocean acidification driven by pollution cause a real threat to sea creatures, climate change is not the primary driver threatening to cause the extinction (灭绝) of large ocean animals. It is humans that are threatening large sea creatures primarily by hunting and fishing them.
Researchers findings reflect a phenomenon experienced by ancient land ecosystems (生态系统). These losses in the ocean are paralleling what humans did to land animals some 50,000 to 10,000 years ago, when we wiped out around half of the big-bodied mammals on Earth, like mammoths, mastodons. saber-tooth cats and the like.
The increasing threat to large groups of sea animals is a recent phenomenon. The researchers made this discovery by comparing characteristics of nearly 2,500 extinct sea vertebrates and mollusks alongside others currently in danger of extinction. They found that smaller sea animals were a little more likely than large ones to be killed off during five previous mass extinction events—the most recent of which was associated with a small planet’s strike some 65 million years ago.
What was surprising to the researchers was that they did not see a similar kind of pattern in any of the previous mass extinction events that they studied
The study shows that a sixth mass extinction, which may already be underway, could kill off larger-bodied animals while leaving smaller ones behind. That could have a terrible long-term impact.
Such removal of the largest animals from the modern oceans, which never happened in the history of animal life, may disturb the order of ecosystems for millions of years even at levels of taxonomic loss far below those of previous mass extinctions.
This news should serve as a wake-up call for humans to fundamentally change the way they manage the oceans. That is to say, it is a warning of what will happen if we don’t get our act together.
Limiting industrialization of the oceans may be necessary to give threatened animals time and space to recover. Most whaling has been banned since the 1980s. We have brought gray whales back from the edge of extinction and blue whales are coming back too.
The researchers point out that cutting back on carbon emissions (排放) will also be necessary to slow extinctions.
1、Paragraph 2 is intended to tell us that ________.
A．both land animals and sea animals die out because of humans
B．big-bodied animals were killed as they were threat to humans
C．humans tended to kill animals on land instead of those in seas
D．humans have been main killers of animals for a very long time
2、What can we learn from the researcher’s studies about animal extinction?
A．It is easier for sea creatures to go extinct than land ones.
B．The patterns of sea animal mass extinction are irregular.
C．Humans were responsible for all those extinctions.
D．Small-bodied creatures produce their young more easily.
3、Which does the passage suggest is the most important in stopping sea animal extinction?
A．To completely ban people from hunting them.
B．To fully realize the urgency of protecting them.
C．To unconditionally release kss CO2 into the air.
D．To reasonably keep control of the trade in them.

Alanna Mallon is a Cambridge City Councilor.
Each year in November, I receive a flurry of emails and texts from friends who want to volunteer with their families on Thanksgiving as a way to give back. I also field phone calls from organizations who want to donate to local programs that provide Thanksgiving meals.
However, as an official who still works in the nonprofit sector, I also feel deeply anxious because I know the other 51 weeks of the year, these critical programs that provide food access to residents in need are starving for both volunteers and donations. Hunger is a year round problem, and each week volunteers are the necessary part to ensure that programs are able to serve the community.
At Food For Free, we rely on about 100 volunteers per week, and each of those volunteers is extremely important to providing fresh, healthy food to people in the Greater Boston area who need it. School children who take backpacks of food home on Fridays, community college students who rely on our Family Meals program to thrive in class, elderly and disabled residents who receive twice monthly deliveries of food to their doors through our Home Delivery program, — they all rely on us ensuring enough volunteers show up to do the work.
These volunteers don’t show up in your social media feeds, they don’t win awards and no one writes about them in the local newspapers. But they are heroes. And you can be too.
If everyone made a promise to volunteer once a month, or even once a quarter, I know that we could reduce some of the anxiety these organizations feel, as a more reliable volunteer network allows them to focus on helping people, not filling volunteer slots.
Here is a list of a few organizations who are doing critical work in Cambridge to address food insecurity. Offer your time to an organization, they will be deeply grateful—and I am going to bet that you will feel pretty good about yourself too.

A．The food safety worries the author.
B．Volunteers are needed all year round.
C．Donations can be made through the Internet.
D．People like getting together on Thanksgiving.
1、Paragraph 3 is mainly about ________.
A．the need for fresh food B．the duty of Food For Free
C．the value of voluntary work D．the difficult life of local people
2、The passage is to ________.
A．call for action B．express thanks
C．advertise programs D．introduce websites
