It was  16  by Ernst Haeckel, a German biologist. He joined two Greek words: oikos, meaning “house, and logie, meaning “the study of.” Together they mean "the study of the house”. The “house” Haeckel had in mind is our   17  ,Earth.Earth is home for all living things--humans, animals, plants,and even tiny microbes.To study a house is to learn how its residents(居民)use it.An ecologist is a scientist who studies the  18  between organisms(生物)and their environment.The environment is an organism's surroundings. It may  19   water, gases, rocks,and temperature.Ecologists also study the balance of using the environment while protecting it.An ecologist once asked a boy  20  he thought it meant to protect the environment.The boy said,“You go into the forest and look for somebody who wants to cut down a tree. You take away his axe. You tell him about how  21  trees are.You say they are good for natural beauty, saving soil, and giving shelter to birds and other animals.”“ Good answer,”said the ecologist, “  22   it may not be easy to find a“woodcutter to talk to. Also, remember that sometimes it's  23  to cut down a tree. If we cut down too many trees, the forest will disappear. If we don't cut down any trees we won't get any resources from the forest We have to find the right  24  .”“I get it,” the boy said“We need the forests  25  for wood and paper or we might not have desks or notebooks for school”“Exactly---and school is a good place to learn about ecology," added the ecologist. “Then you will know how to protect the natural environment.”16.A. proved        B.invented         C. marked        D.accepted17.A. planet         B.building         C. project         D.surface18.A. feeling        B. relationships     C.distance         D competitions19.

However, the results may be out of imagination.The number of insects has dropped by half in the past few years, according to a British biologist Dave Coulson. You may think small insects are not important. But in fact they are the main part of the species（物种）on Earth.Insects are indeed on the way to extinction, according to the first review of insect population. The researchers say the main reason for this is the use of pesticides（杀虫剂）because they destroy insects' living areas. Also, weather change is another important cause.“Unless we change our ways of producing food, insects will go down the way to extinction in a few years,” the researchers wrote in the review. “This will have huge influences on the planet's ecosystem（生态系统）.”We need insects to pollinate（授粉）crops. They also break down（分解）dead plants and animals, which can keep the soil healthy. Without insects, many animals would have nothing to eat and die of hunger. Then, the ecosystem would be off balance.“If the number of insect species keep dropping, this will have bad influences on both Earth's ecosystem and the survival of us humans,” said one of the writers of the review.“The first step to stop this is to let more people understand the values of the natural world,” he suggests. “The best place to start is from our children, who should realize environmental protection from an early age.”29. The underlined word "extinction" means “_____”.A. pollution     B. death     C. harm     D. protection30. Paragraph 5 is mainly about_____________.A. the reason for producing food        B. the problem of animals and plantsC. the way to keep soil healthy          D. the importance of insects31. From the passage, we can know_____________.A. insects may destroy the balance of the ecosystemB. ants and flies are the main part of the species on EarthC. humans' actions influence the number of insectsD. weather change has little influence on insects CHave you ever watched a show about the wild? A shark (鲨鱼) eats a seal! Lions run down a gazelle! Is all nature like that? All about eating and blood? Or is that just what keeps our eyes glued to the TV screen? Let’s look at sonic living things who work with each other instead of ripping each other apart.When a lion kills a gazelle, it wants to eat as much as it can and maybe share the rest with its family. There are some living things that will take small pieces of another living thing’s body. Parasitism is when one living thing gets its energy from another living thing, does not give anything back, and hurts the thing it’s taking things from.Now let’s get a little nicer. Sometimes a living thing will live off the body of another living thing without hurting it. They do not steal anything. They do not bite. Commensalism is when two living things live together and one gets good things out of it while the other is not hurt by it. Have you seen a picture of a whale (鲸) with rocky white things stuck to its skin? Those are barnacles(藤壶). They attach themselves to the whale, so nothing will try to eat them and they can eat things that float by.Now let’s get really nice. While sharks are biting and lions are fighting, are there any animals that just get along? Yes! Actually, there are many. Mutualism is when two living things work together and both get good things out of it. Bees and flowers are the most common example. Without flowers, bees could not make honey. Without bees, flowers could not make new seeds. It’s win-win for these two. There are lots of animals that get along. Birds will live on the backs of zebras and eat the ticks that are drinking the zebra’s blood. The bird gets food. The zebra gets its ticks taken away. In some of these cases, one animal could not live without the other.We use the word “Symbiotic (共生的)” for all of these kinds of relationships. Sometimes it’s good for one and bad for the other. Sometimes it’s just good for one. Sometimes it’s even good for both. So, it is nice to know that there are some living things out there that are finding ways to live together. We could pay attention to the animals that do not always make it on TV.32. The writer mentioned a TV show about the wild in Paragraph 1 to __________.A. tell a story           B. solve a mysteryC. Introduce a subject    D. discuss a programme33. Which of the following best describes the relationship between bees and flowers?A. Neighbours.    B. Friends.    C. Strangers.    D. Partners.34. How does the writer develop the passage?A. By showing pictures.   B. By giving examples.C. By presenting reasons.  D. By drawing conclusions.35. What can we infer from the passage?A. The world of living things remains to be explored.B. More actions should be taken to protect living things.C. TV programmes about living things require to be improved.D. More money will be spent on documentaries about living things. 四、填空(共15 小;每小题1分，满分 15分)A)根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词使子意思完整正确。36.The young men are trying to be       (先锋)in the field of high technology.37.Liu Hao always works to high           (标准).A year can be        (分)into twelve months and four seasons.Children's action can be          (影响)by their parents’ behaviour.He said he          (更喜欢) rice to noodles.As the story develops, the secret of the castle is          (发现) little by little.Mr Green         (从事) colour therapy and he can use colours to help people calm down.I can't decide          (是否) or not I should accept the invitationB)   根据句子意思，用括号中所给单词的适当形式填空。The government should think of some ways to solve these          (practice)problems.I think Simon is           (organize)of all the students in our class.Sally is a stubborn(固执)girl.She would not like to accept           (other) advice.Not only the boys but also I         (be) going to play games after class.My friend Jery has made a         (decide)to buy a mobile phone online.At that moment, he preferred           (not think) about the bad thing.The more         (worry)you feel, the less you will relax yourself .五、阅读填空(共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分)A)请认真读下列短文，并根据所读内容，在文章后的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。每空一词。Livestreaming (直播) has taken off over the past few years in China. It has not only entertained (娱乐) the public, but also provided a new stage for traditional culture artists.On video websites and apps such as Douyin and Bilibili, many traditional artists are making their first appearance（出现）. They sing Peking Opera, show their paper-cutting works, or perform（表演）Chinese kung fu as well as classical Chinese music. Li Jun is a laosheng (old male role) performer of Shanghai Jingju Theater Company. During the outbreak, the 59-year-old man started livestreaming. He tried to think of new ways to attract people. Different from performing on a normal stage, Li gives his performance（表演）in everyday places, like his backyard and study room. Along with singing, Li also teaches viewers Peking Opera in a humorous way,as a result,some of them even sing the opera well in a short time.“Livestreaming has brought this classical art clown to earth,” one viewer said. “It allows young people to know more and fall in love with Peking Opera.” Up to now, Li has got more than 6, 000 fans on Douyin, while one of his videos has received 42, 000 views on Bilibili. Other kinds of artists also believe that livestreaming is a new chance. On March 26, the third China Huafu Day, Bilibili livestreamed a fashion show. Performers（表演者）showed beautiful clothes in traditional Chinese styles, including those from the Wei, Tang and Ming dynasties. During the show, viewers not only enjoyed seeing the beautiful clothes but also watched the way performers used ancient styles of make up（化妆）. For example, a performer taught people step by step how to draw the guiyemei, which was a typical make-up style during the Tang dynasty. Guangming Daily noted, “By livestreaming, the traditional artists can give answers directly to the questions viewers ask, which brings a lot of convenience. At the same time, traditional culture is kept alive, because it has won more and more young people’s heart.”Livestreaming—A New Stage Keeping Traditional Culture aliveBackgroundLivestreaming becomes    51   because people have to stay at home during the flu outbreak.InfluencesMany traditional artists are trying livestreaming for the   52    time on video websites and apps.
