Starting in l972,the National Park Service established a policy for forest fires calle Natural Burn.It was acknowledged that some forest fires,such as those caused by lightning were necessary for forests to maintain balanced ecosystems,so the fire should be allowed to burn.However, a big fire in Yellowstone National Park in l988 caused this policy to be abandoned since the fire was initially allowed to burn yet soon out of control.As a result,the fire of l988 destroyed much of Yellowstone,which is America’s oldest and most beloved national park.Massive areas of plants were destroyed,and large empty spaces and acres of burned and blackened trees greeted visitors.The rivers and streams were choked with ash,and the ecosystem of the park was changed beyond repair.

    In addition,great numbers of animals were killed by the fires that bumed out of control. The fires were driven by high winds,moving as many as ten miles a day.Many small animals died in the flames.The fires’ rapid advances gave the wildlife little chance to escape. Even today,few of these small forest animals have returned to live in the park. In the years immediately following the fires,the numbers of visitors declined rapidly.No one was interested in seeing a blackened and treeless park on vacation.Yellowstone had previously been famous for its amazing views and unique geological formations such as the geyser Old Faithful. But now its reputation as America's wonder is damaged permanently.

1.Natural Burn was adopted because some forest fires were        

A.hard to put out

2.The big fire in Yellowstone in 1988          .

A.became out of control at first

B.destroyed the park completely

C.was allowed to burn continuously

People go fishing for many reasons, for one they like the sport of it, reeling in (搜卷軸拉近魚(yú)鉤) the big catch after a long day of work or just having a few drinks on the water with some friends and letting all the stress just go. Whatever the reasons may be, it is absolutely therapeutic.

People in the south sometimes do a strange type of fishing where they reach their arm inside a hole in the bank and pull out cat fish the size of a boat. There is one form called jug fishing where you get a milk jug or water jug and tie a heavy fishing line with a big hook, put on a small brim(容器的口)and throw it in the water. The next morning you get up and see what’s on the hook. There is fly fishing which is with a lighter string and top water jigs(滾鉤)such as bugs that lay on the top of the water until the trout(鱒魚(yú))comes and takes it. It takes longer to reel them in because the line is so light and the fish are heavy.

Ice fishing is a dangerous kind of fishing in the north. You cut a hole in the ice, drop in your bait(誘餌)and wait for a fish to bite. You have to be careful that the fish doesn’t pull your line into the side of the ice and snap it. That is one problem with ice fishing but the fish are usually bigger and worth the trouble.

Going out on the lake with a couple of friends or alone with a couple of drinks and a fishing pole can be the most stress releasing thing you can do sometimes. Just to feel the waves rocking the boat and a good conversation is all the therapy you will need sometimes. Catching a fish is always a great bonus(獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)).

1. The underlined word “therapeutic” may be replaced by ________.

A.beneficial         B.caring            C.curable           D.healthy

2. What is the second paragraph mainly about?

A.Some characters about fishing

B.Some different fishing in the south

C.Three common fishing in America

D.People’s creative fishing in the north

3.How many ways of fishing have been introduced in the passage?

A.Two              B.Three             C.Four             D.Five

4.What problem should people pay attention to when going ice fishing?

A.Dropping in the bait several times

B.Waiting for the fish more patiently

C.Cutting a big enough hole on the ice

D.Taking care of the lines of their poles

5. Fishing is becoming more and more popular mainly because _______.

A.it is a good way to harvest much fish from the rivers

B.it can help people have a good time with their friends

C.it can help people relax themselves to the fullest

D.it is a good way to exercise the strength of their arms

Will there always be 31       water? When you consider how necessary water is to each and every one of us and to all 32     (live) things, and when you observe how man has mismanaged other 33     (nature) resources, you may have reason to worry. Man has badly polluted his sources of water 34    Earth. And he uses more and more water each day. Can man learn to treat 35      (pollute) water for reuse fast enough 36      (keep) pace with the world’s technology and   37    (grow) population?

At the present time there is no serious shortage of water in the United States. Water, however, is not 38     able to meet all the local needs. Some areas, such as the southwestern part of our country, get less rain than 39    . In these areas, water must be brought in from 40      outside. Los Angeles, for example, must obtain its water from sources hundreds of miles away in the Colorado River and the rivers of northern California.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2010-2011學(xué)年江西省贛州市十一縣市高三下學(xué)期期中聯(lián)考英語(yǔ)卷 題型:閱讀理解

Heavy downpours last month in Rhode Island led to widespread flooding, causing millions of dollars in property damage and leaving thousands homeless. The floodwaters also poured vast amounts of raw sewage (污水) into the rivers and streams that flow into Narragansett Bay.

It sounds like the makings of an environmental nightmare, but in fact it’s just the opposite. To scientists’ delight, the sewage-loaded floodwaters have caused a well-timed growth of phytoplankton, the microscopic creatures that form the foundation of marine food chains. With more food available for fish, clams and other sea creatures, the bay’s fisheries industry is expected to benefit.

In decades past, Narragansett Bay typically experienced a late winter/early spring algal (海藻) bloom that fed creatures up and down the water column. But in recent years, the waters of Narragansett Bay have warmed greatly, interrupting this seasonal event.

Mark Berman, an oceanographer with the National Marine Fisheries Service, said the flood seemed to have sent the bay back to its normal state.

However, local, state and federal officials in Rhode Island have been battling other algal blooms that, by contrast, are causing widespread harm to the Narragansett Bay ecosystem. During summer months, sewage and agricultural runoff flows into the bay, causing large blooms. But instead of becoming food for sea creatures, much of the phytoplankton is consumed by bacteria, which grow fast in the warmer waters. The rapid bacteria growth leads to hypoxia – a decrease of oxygen in the water that can cause large fish kills. One such die-off occurred in 2003, when millions of oxygen-starved fish washed up on the beaches of Narragansett Bay.

The flood’s positive impact will probably be a one-time event, Mr. Berman said. Meanwhile, efforts to curb the harmful summer blooms continue; in 2008, for instance, Providence completed a $359 million sewage tunnel under the city designed to reduce the polluted storm overflow into Narragansett Bay.

1. Scientists believe that the raw sewage flowing into the bay will _______.

A.pollute the island’s environment

B.cause lots of property damage

C.increase the fisheries production

D.destroy the food chains in the bay

2.The potential benefit of fisheries industry relies on the _______.

A.warm temperatures of the bay

B.growth of phytoplankton

C.large summer alga blooms

D.consumption of oxygen by bacteria

3. People struggle against the summer blooms because they will ________.

A.pollute the local natural environment

B.increase the production of fishery industry

C.cause large fish kills of the bay indirectly

D.provide too much food for sea creatures

4.It can be inferred that _______.

A.money spent on the summer blooms has been wasted

B.the government is investing to promote the local fisheries

C.research of oceanology should be encouraged

D.opinions on the raw sewage impact are currently contradictory

5. The underlined word “curb” in the last paragraph can be defined as “______”.

A.control

B.consume

C.cause

D.cure
