However, their lives were turned upside down when they discovered the jawbone of a Mastodon (乳齿象)．Brothers Shawn and Caid Sellers and their cousin Michael Mahalitc found the prehistoric bone in a piece of earth that was recently plowed.  “I thought it was a log，\” Caid said.  “I tried to pick it up and it was really heavy and I saw teeth on it.\” The bone weighed about 50 pounds. They eventually got the bone to their home and fitted it in their bathtub, but it took their collective strength, might and a golf cart, to carry the large Mastodon bone.“They didn't expect to find that，\”  Michael's mom said. “Now they believe that they will be more aware of their surroundings and what they're digging up when they are digging and playing.\”“We've gotten a lot of petrified (石化的) wood and  Civil War relics from the area and that's what I thought it was，\” the brothers' mother said. “This is our first set of teeth we've found. So we thought it was their imagination. We were quite surprised to see that it was not their imagination.\”They were exploring near the brothers' home. It's surprising that they saw what they thought resembled a fossil. It was the curator of paleontology (古生物学) of the  Mississippi Museum of Natural Science, George Phillips, who first identified the bone as a “very mature individual\”．The Mastodon was a mammal who lived during the prehistoric times. They had long tusks and trunks, like elephants. They were clearly different from their modern day counterparts, as well as woolly mammoths (猛犸)．篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。美国密西西比州的三个男孩在玩耍的时候无意中发现了乳齿象的下颌骨，起初他们并不知道这是史前动物的遗骸，而这些遗骸对史前生物的研究有一定的促进作用。1．How did they find the jawbone of a Mastodon?A．With great efforts.B．By chance.C．Instructed by an expert.D．Through imagination.答案：B　细节理解题。根据第一段“Three boys were enjoying themselves ... discovered the jawbone of a Mastodon (乳齿象)．”可知，他们是在玩耍的时候无意中发现乳齿象的下颌骨的。2．At first the brothers' mother thought the jawbone was ________.A．from people who died in the Civil WarB．the bone from a very mature individualC．like a log or somethingD．the prehistoric bone答案：A　推理判断题。根据第四段第一句中的“We've gotten a lot of petrified (石化的)  wood and  Civil War relics ... what I thought it was”可知，他们之间曾经发现过一些石化的木材以及内战时的遗物。由此可推知，他们的母亲认为他们发现的这块下颌骨是在内战中死亡的人的。3．The discovery of the jawbone of a Mastodon is important mainly because it ________.A．helps people to know more about the Civil WarB．teaches kids to be more aware of their surroundingsC．promotes the research on more prehistoric creaturesD．attracts the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science答案：C　推理判断题。最后一段指出Mastodon是生活于史前时期的古生物，因此，乳齿象下颌骨的发现可以促进对史前生物的研究。4．Which of the following can be the best title for the article?A．Prehistoric Bones Recently Found in MississippiB．Not Petrified Wood nor Civil War RelicsC．First Identifying Bone as a “Very Mature Individual\”D．Unexpectedly Discovering Mastodon Jawbone答案：D　标题判断题。根据第一段并结合文章其他内容可知，美国密西西比州的三个男孩在玩耍的时候无意中发现了乳齿象的下颌骨，起初他们并不知道这是史前动物的遗骸，他们发现的遗骸对史前生物的研究有一定的促进作用，故D项最适合作文章标题。(2020·吉林省梅河口市高三上学期联考)Nasr Majid started hunting this fall at Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge (保护区) on the Eastern Shore of Maryland in USA. He's one of the relatively few new hunters who officials hope will help stop a nearly four­decade decline nationally in what has become a hobby for fewer than 5 percent of Americans.Natural resources and wildlife, officials in Maryland are encouraging hunting of deer, turkeys and some other wild animals, which is believed to be good for the environment. Without hunting, they say, sika deer will overpopulate the wildlife refuge and they'll overeat the bushes and other plants that provide important habitat for birds. On the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, hunting is also important to prevent the spread of diseases such as Lyme.In many families, the hunting tradition has been handed down for generations. But as longtime sportsmen age and children lose interest, the number of hunters in the United States fell by 2 million, from 2011 to 2018, to about 11 million.“Everything is changing. Kids are growing up in front of video games and computers instead of going hunting.” said Chris Markin, a hunting specialist for the state natural resources department. “Adults usually focus on working and providing for their families. Those pressures are preventing many other potential hunters from going out, and from raising the next generation of hunters.”To avoid such a decline, a new approach is needed. Government agencies and nonprofit groups are now launching mentoring (指导) programs to train more hunters, which not only helps preserve an industry and a culture but also means more protection for wildlife and their habitats through deer population control and investment.Luckily, there are those still eager to learn, like Majid. He was just looking for an outdoor hobby he could share with his children when he came across the mentors­hip program. Now, he feels capable of hunting on his own, but also has someone he can text with questions that pop up. His new_pastime has already paid off for him—on his second hunt with his mentor, in the last minutes of daylight, he bagged his first deer.篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了Nasr Majid在美国马里兰州东海岸黑水国家野生动物保护区狩猎，他是为数不多的几个新猎人之一，官员们希望这些新的猎人能帮助扭转近四十年来全国范围内的狩猎活动下降的局面。5．What can be inferred from Chris Markin's words?A．No one is interested in hunting any more.B．Hunting adds to many adults' life pressures.C．Parents fail to spend enough time with kids.D．The hunting tradition is facing challenges.答案：D　推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知，孩子们在电子游戏和电脑前长大，而不是去打猎。成年人通常专注于工作和养家糊口。这些压力阻碍了许多其他潜在猎人的外出打猎，也阻碍了下一代猎人的成长。因此，狩猎传统正面临挑战。故选D。6．In this passage, Nasr Majid is considered as a symbol of ________.A．bravery B．hopeC．enthusiasm D．devotion   答案：B　细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知，今年秋天，Nasr Majid开始在美国马里兰州东海岸的黑水国家野生动物保护区狩猎，他是为数不多的几个新猎人之一，官员们希望这些新的猎人能帮助扭转近四十年来全国范围内的狩猎活动下降的局面。由此可知，Nasr Majid被认为是希望的象征。故选B。7．What does the underlined words “new pastime” refer to?A．Learning to hunt.B．Raising questions.C．Looking for hunters.D．Sharing a new hobby.答案：A　词义猜测题。根据画线词前“Luckily, there are those still eager to learn, like Majid. He was just looking for an outdoor hobby he could share with his children”幸运的是，仍有一些人渴望学习，比如马吉德。他只是想找一个可以和孩子们分享的户外爱好。可知，画线词的意思是“学习打猎。”故选A。8．What does the text mainly tell us?A．Teach hunters new skills.B．Preserve a great tradition.C．Make hunting more popular.D．Reduce the pressure of life.答案：C　主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是根据第一段内容可知，本文主要介绍了Nasr Majid在美国马里兰州东海岸黑水国家野生动物保护区狩猎，他是为数不多的几个新猎人之一，官员们希望这些新的猎人能帮助扭转近四十年来全国范围内的狩猎活动下降的局面。故选C。Ⅲ.短文改错(2019·黑龙江哈尔滨三中高三第二次调研)Have you ever had headache during a test? Have you ever been too concerned about something that you even can't sleep at night? If so, then you know that stress is. Too much stress can result in anger, depression and other related problems, which we need to take them seriously.Therefore, not all stress was harmful to you.

Stress sometimes can help push you to make full preparations for a test.The best approach of reducing stress is to have a balance life. If you get enough sleep, eat properly, take more exercise and have enough fun time, you might feel more stressed.答案：Have you ever had  headache during a test? Have you ever been  concerned about something that you even can't sleep at night? If so, then you know  stress is. Too much stress can result in anger, depression and other related problems, which we need to take  seriously.， not all stress  harmful to you. Some kinds of stress can help you get things  better, like when you are running towards the finishing line or when you are asked to deliver speech to your class. Stress sometimes can help push you to make full preparations for a test.The best approach  reducing stress is to have a  life. If you get enough sleep, eat properly, take more exercise and have enough fun time, you might feel   stressed.1．headache前加a　考查冠词。句意：在你考试期间有过头疼吗？headache是可数名词，所以用单数，在headache前加a。2．too→so　考查固定句型。句意：你是否曾经太过担心一些事情，以至于晚上睡不着觉？so ... that “太……以至于”，该句型是固定句型，所以将too改为so。3．that→what　考查宾语从句的连接词。动词know后面的部分为宾语从句，连接词作is的表语，且表示“什么”，故将know后面的that改为what。4．去掉them　考查非限制性定语从句。“which we need to take seriously”是非限制性定语从句，关系词在从句中作take的宾语，them多余，故去掉。5．Therefore→However　考查副词。句意：然而，并不是所有的压力都对我们有害。此处表示“然而”，是语意上的转折，所以将Therefore改为However。6．was→is　考查动词的时态。描述客观事实应用一般现在时，故将was改为is。7．do→done　考查宾语补足语。句意：有些压力能够让你把事情做得更好。things和do之间是被动关系，应用过去分词作宾补，即get sth. done结构，故将do改为done。8．of→to　考查介词。approach作“方式；方法”讲，其后通常与“to”搭配，表示“……的方法”，故将of改为to。9．balance→balanced　考查形容词。句意：最好的减压方法就是有一个平衡的生活。这里修饰名词life，用形容词balanced “平衡的”，所以将balance改为balanced。10．more→less　考查副词。句意：如果你获得足够的睡眠，饮食合理，参加更多的运动，并且有足够的娱乐时间，你可能会更少地感觉到压力。此处表示“更少地”，所以将第二个more改为less。
