‎2019届高考英语一轮复习全面回扣训练17‎ ‎ (1)(8 min.)‎ It has been more than 10 months since I began living in Beijing. I was very excited when I got selected as a scholar to obtain my master's degree from China through PakistanChina Cultural Exchange Scholarship Program. ‎ Along with being excited to get this opportunity, I was a little afraid about whether I can adjust or not in this completely different society. I had a misunderstanding that Chinese people are selfcentered and impolite; and that they don't care about other people, especially nonChinese speakers. But now, I have found people really very friendly and cooperative. They are a little shy at _breaking_the_ice_,_but once you start conversation with them, their response is very polite and pleasant. ‎ What has attracted me most until now is the loving Chinese kids — especially their friendly attitude. Once I went to ski at Badaling Skiing Resort in Beijing and I was completely surprised when I saw many kids between the ages of 4 and 8 putting on the skiing kits. I came to know that few of those kids were on the skiing tracks for very first time. The way kids were enjoying themselves really inspired me a lot. I noticed one of the kids for some time and I found that every time he fell down, he had a loving smile on his face and tried to get up, brushed the snow off his clothes and be ready for his next attempt. ‎ Due to introduction of English in kindergarten, many kids can speak some basic English, so they feel very excited when they see any foreigners and greet them. At our campus, many parents and grandparents bring their kids to play on the playground every day. Apart from playing, I found them very friendly at interacting with people as well. I really love the way I'm often greeted by passerby kids, saying “Hello” or “Hi”．‎ Whenever I go for an outing, I never miss any chance to take some photographs with these smart kids because it's very loving when they make victory sign with their hands, which is the most common pose for photography among Chinese.‎ ‎ I really feel short of words to describe my feelings for these little lovely stars. These kids are my favorite Chinese friends and they are what I like most in China. ‎ ‎ 1. What's the passage mainly about?‎ A. Loving Chinese kids.‎ B. My learning experience in China.‎ C.

The _culprit_ is climate change, and some researchers found that rising temperatures are having harmful effects on at least five species of rabbit in the US.‎ Take the Lower Keys March rabbit, for instance. An endangered species that lives in the Lower Florida Keys, this species of cottontail is a great swimmer — it lives on the islands! —but it is already severely affected by development and now by rising sea levels. According to the Center for Biological Diversity, an ocean level rise of only 0. 6 meters will send these guys jumping to higher ground and a 0.9meter rise would wipe out their habitat (栖息地) completely.‎ The snowshoe hare, on the other hand, has a color issue. Most of these rabbits change their fur color from white in the wintertime to brown in the summer, each designed to give them better cover from predators(捕食者). As the number of days with snow decreases all across the country, however, more and more bunnies arc being left in white fur during brown dirt days of both fall and spring, making them an easier mark for predators. Researchers know that the color change is controlled by the number of hours of sunlight, but whether the rabbit will be able to adapt quick enough to survive is a big question. The National Wildlife Federation has reported that hunters have noticed their numbers are already markedly down.‎ ‎ American pikas or rock rabbits, a relative of rabbits and hares, might be the first of these species to go extinct due to climate change. About 78 inches long, pikas live high in the cool, damp mountains west of the Rocky Mountains. As global temperatures rise, they would naturally migrate (迁徙) to higher ground — but they already occupy the mountain tops. They can't go any higher. The National Wildlife Federation reports that they might not be able to stand the new temperatures as their habitat beats up.‎ The volcano rabbit has the same problem. These rabbits live on the slopes of volcanoes in Mexico, and recent studies have shown that the lower range of their habitat has already shifted upward about 700 meters, but there are not suitable plants for them to move higher, so they are stuck in the middle. Scientists are concerned about their populations.‎ Native to the US, pygmy rabbits weigh less than 1 pound and live in the American West. They are believed to be the smallest rabbits in the world. Their habitats have been destroyed by development. Several populations, such as the Columbia‎ ‎Basin pygmy, almost went extinct and were saved by zoo breeding programs. Pygmy rabbits also rely on winter cover by digging tunnels through the snow to escape predators, but lesser snowfall is leaving them exposed.‎ All of this gives new meaning to dressing up in a giant bunny costume this Easter.‎ ‎ 1. The writer mentions Easter at the beginning of the passage in order to ______.‎ A. show the importance of Easter Day B. introduce the issue about bunnies C. remind people of Easter traditions D. discuss the relationship between Easter and bunnies ‎ 2. The word “culprit” ( Paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to ______.‎ A. criminal B. judge C. victim D. producer ‎ 3.According to the passage, some rabbits can now be easily discovered by predators because they ______.‎ A. are exposed lo more skillful hunters B. have moved to habitats with fewer plants C. haven't adapted themselves to climate change D. can't change their fur color into white in the fall and the spring ‎ 4. The problem faced by volcano rabbits and rock rabbits is that ______.‎ A. both are affected by less snow B. both are affected by rising sea levels C. neither can find enough food D. neither can migrate to higher places ‎ 5. Which best describes the writer's tone in the passage?‎ A. Approving. B. Concerned.‎ C. Enthusiastic. D. Doubtful.‎ ‎(1)‎ 一位巴基斯坦的留学生，用自己独特的视角，记叙了中国孩子积极向上的人生观。‎ ‎1.
