Milman charts the trubling decline f insects in his new bk, The Insect Crisis: The Fall f the Tiny Empires That Run the Wrld. He says that while it’s impssible t knw exactly what’s happening with every insect species in the wrld, the verall trends are nt gd: The butterfly ppulatin in Nrth America has declined quickly in the past 40 years, fr example, and a U. N. assessment dne in 2019 fund that half a millin insect species are under threat f extinctin, sme in the cming decades.
“The wrld, ur surrundings, wuld be far quieter, far duller withut insects,” he says. “When yu start kind f digging dwn int these figures lking at the research, it’s clear that there’s smething seriusly wrng…There is a straight decline in mst insect ppulatins, and that spells majr truble fr them but als fr us.”

32.答案:①called②shrter③t depend④frm⑤ttally⑥an⑦disasters⑧were destryed⑨where⑩discvery
解析:①考查过去分词。句意:研究人员说,它很可能属于肉食性恐龙群,叫做阿贝利龙。句中谓语是belngs t,空格处用非谓语动词作后置定语,dinsaurs和call之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,使用过去分词表被动,故填called。
②考查比较级。句意:这些恐龙用两条腿行走,手臂很短,甚至比北美的霸王龙还要短。由下文than可知,用比较级shrter,故填shrter。
③考查不定式。句意:短臂可能迫使Guemesia更加依赖其强大的头骨和下颚。frce sb.t d sth.是固定短语,意为"迫使某人做某事",使用不定式t depend。故填t depend。
④考查介词。句意:发表在Jurnal f Vertebrate Palentlgy上的一篇关于这种恐龙的研究报告的主要作者Agnlin Federic说:"Guemesia与其他食肉恐龙非常不同,这让我们明白,我们面对的是一个全新的物种。"be different frm是固定短语,意为"和……不同",用介词frm,故填frm。
⑤考查副词。句意:发表在Jurnal f Vertebrate Palentlgy上的一篇关于这种恐龙的研究报告的主要作者Agnlin Federic说:"Guemesia与其他食肉恐龙非常不同,这让我们明白,我们面对的是一个全新的物种。"空格处使用副词形式ttally修饰形容词new,ttally意为"完全地",故填ttally。
⑥考查冠词。句意:在小行星撞击现在的墨西哥尤卡坦半岛之前,这种动物已经存在了几百万年。asterid是可数名词的单数形式,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,asterid是元音音素开头,使用an,故填an。
⑦考查名词的复数。句意:大约6600万年前的那次事件导致了一系列灾难,导致所有恐龙和许多其他动物死亡。a series f后要跟可数名词复数,故填disasters。
⑧考查时态,语态和主谓一致。句意:总的来说,地球上大约75%的物种因小行星的撞击而灭绝。地球上的物种是被毁,句子用被动语态,句子描述过去的事情,时态用一般过去时,因此空格处是一般过去时的被动语态,主语75 percent f Earth's species是复数,因此空格处是were destryed。故填were destryed。
⑨考查定语从句。句意:过去曾在阿根廷出土过几具阿伯龙化石,但几乎所有化石都在Patagnia南部,远离发现Guemesia的地点。空格处引导的是定语从句,从句中不缺主语或宾语,先行词site表示地方,用关系副词where,故填where。
⑩考查名词单数。句意:Guemesia的名字来源于阿根廷独立英雄Martin Miguel de Guemes和发现这一物种的博物馆工作人员Javier Ocha。空格处用名词作宾语,此处表示"Guemesia的名字来源于阿根廷独立英雄Martin Miguel de Guemes和发现这一物种的博物馆工作人员Javier Ocha",空格处意为"发现",名词是discvery,此处是指一个发现,用单数,故填discvery。
