A.A research paper. B.A travel brochure. C.A nature magazine. D.A geography textbook. 答案 B 解析推理判断题。文章主要介绍了四个不同的旅游项目,由此可推知,文章最有可能来自一 本旅游手册。故选 B 项。 B On a cool morning,Wilson Kasaine heads out along a dirt path in southern Kenya.His calmness makes it easy to forget that he’s tracking one of the most dangerous animals in the world.Kasaine is tracking lions—especially one lion called Marti,who is the real-life Lion King of Selenkay Conservancy. Tracking lions on foot may sound like a death wish,but Kasaine has been doing it for most of his life.Born into a traditional Maasai family he quickly grew to understand the beauty and danger of wildlife.Living with big wild animals forces him to develop a good sense of where they have been and where they may be going.During his 12-kilometre walks to and from school,he learned how to tell the paw prints(爪印) of a lion from those of other animals
Growing up,Kasaine knew that improving his tracking abilities would help him avoid surprise meetings with dangerous animals.For many Maasai people,tracking is mainly a matter of self-protection.But Kasaine is tracking lions to meet them and to protect them.He leads a small group of wide-eyed tourists over the red sandy path,searching for the lion that has left upon it his prints. Each year,thousands of tourists crowd Kenya's national parks to try to have a look at the"big five":elephants,rhinoceros,leopards,buffaloes and lions.The international draw of these animals matters a lot because the nation's economy is tied to the protection of its wildlife.If Kenya's wildlife disappears,so does its second-largest source of income. Wildlife protection efforts in Kenya meant marking off land exclusively()for animals.But it also meant that the people who had originally lived in the area were forced to leave their land and into smaller surrounding areas.They are also finding it increasingly hard to keep a traditional Maasai lifestyle.But people are glad that it really makes a difference to wildlife protection. 4.How did Kasaine track lions? A.By working together with tourists B.By running after them all the time C.By going to school every day. D.By studying their paw prints 答案D 解析推理判断题。由第二段的During his 12-kilometre walks to and from school,he learned how to tell the paw prints of a lion from those of other animals.”可推知,Kasaine通过狮子的脚印 追踪狮子。故选D项。 5.What can we learn from paragraph 4? A.Maasai people are born animal lovers. B.Tourism is a big threat to Kenya's wildlife C.Kenya benefits a lot from its wildlife protection. D.Small animals are not included in their protection policy. 答案C 解析细节理解题。由第四段的The international draw of these animals matters alot because the nation's economy is tied to the protection of its wildlife.If Kenya's wildlife disappears,so does its second-.largest source of income.”可知,肯尼亚从它的野生生物保护中受益很多。故选C 项。 6.What does the underlined word"it"in the last paragraph refer to? A.Kenva's economic development. B.People's leaving their original homes. C.Kenya's second-largest income source. D.Kenyan people's traditional Maasai lifestyle. 答案B 解析推理判断题。由最后一段的But it also meant that the people who had originally lived in the area were forced to leave their land and into smaller surrounding areas.可推知,“it”指的是人 们离开他们最初的家。故选B项。 7.What is the best title for the text? A.Wildlife Protection in Kenya B.Meeting a Dangerous Animal C.Wilson Kasaine's Wise Choice D.Learning to Live with Lions 答案A 解析标题归纳题。这篇文章通过讲述Kasaine通过狮子的脚印追踪狮子、保护狮子的故事 说明了肯尼亚从它的野生生物保护中受益很多。即使人们离开他们最初的家,人们也非常高 兴,并且支持野生生物保护。故选A项
