III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.When discussing the causes of animal endangerment, it is important to understand that individual species are not the only factors involved in this difficult situation. Endangerment is a broad 50 , one that involves the habitats (栖息地) and environments where species live and interact with one another. Although some measures are being 51 to help specific cases of endangerment, the universal problem cannot be solved until the 52 environments where endangered species live are 53 by humans. There are many reasons why a particular species may become endangered, but habitat destruction is on top.Our planet is continually changing, causing habitats to be changed and modified. Natural changes tend to occur at a gradual pace, usually causing only a slight 54 on individual species. However, when changes occur at a fast pace, there is little or no time for individual species to _55 and adapt to new circumstances. This can create disastrous results, and for this reason, rapid habitat loss is the 56 cause of species endangerment. The strongest forces in rapid habitat loss are human beings. Nearly every region of the earth has been affected by human 57 , particularly during this past century. The loss of microbes (微生物) in soils that formerly supported tropical forests, the 58 of fish and various aquatic (水族的) species in polluted habitats, and changes in global climate brought about by the 59 greenhouse gases are all results of human activities.It can be 60 for an individual to recognize the effects that humans have had on specific species. It is also hard to identify or predict human effects on individual species and habitats, especially during a human lifetime. 61 it is quite obvious that human activities have greatly contributed to species endangerment. 62 , although tropical forests may look as though they are thick and healthy, they are actually highly susceptible (易受影响的) to destruction only because of the soils in which they grow 63 nutrients (营养). It may take centuries to re-grow a forest that was cut down by humans or destroyed by fire, and many of the worlds severely threatened animals and plants live in these forests. If the present rate of forest 64 continues, huge quantities of plant and animal species will disappear. 50. A. theme B. project C. issue D. experiment51. A. performedB. taken C. held D. made52.

(A)Some say everyday miracles are predestined (注定的)- All thats necessary is readiness, the right circumstance for the appointed meeting. And it can happen anywhere. In 1999, 11-year-old Kevin Stephan was a bat boy for his younger brothers Little League team in Lancaster, New York. It was an early evening in late July. Kevin was standing on the grass away from the plate, where another youngster was warming up for the next game. Swinging his bat back and forth, and giving it all the power an elementary school kid could give, the boy brought the bat back hard and hit Kevin in the chest. His heart stopped. When Kevin fell to the ground, the mother of one of the players rushed out of the stands to his aid. Penny Brown hadnt planned to be there that day, but at the last minute, her shift (轮班) at the hospital had been changed, and she was given the night off. Penny bent over the senseless boy, his face already starting to turn blue, and giving CPR, breathing into his mouth and giving chest compressions (按压). And he came to life. After his recovery, he became a volunteer junior firefighter, learning some of the emergency first-aid techniques that had saved his life. He studied hard in school and was saving money for college by working as a dishwasher in a local restaurant in his spare time. Kevin, now 17, was working in the kitchen when he heard people screaming, customers in confusion, employees rushing toward a table. He hurried into the main room and
