The bombing campaign in Afghanistan has worsened the environmental disaster that was initiated by years of civil conflict and drought. The country’s remaining forests me being bombed or burned in the search for terrorists, and refugees me clearing forests for fanning and fuel. Afghanistan’s mountains— home to leopards (豹), bears, and Marco Polo sheep—were also at risk. Some refugees were reported to be hunting rare snow leopards to buy a safe passage across the border.
In Tasmania 77 Australian species, including some that had been eliminated on the mainland, were potentially at risk after foxes were introduced, perhaps deliberately by individuals who wanted new game. Wildlife managers were trying to devise ways of killing the foxes without harming native species. A threat to native freshwater species in the eastern U.S. was feared when northern snakehead fish—a species that can survive out of water for several days mid travel over land—were found in a pond in Maryland. A local man evidently had released two of these fish, and they were breeding. In September Maryland wild life officials sprayed poison into the pond where the snakeheads had been found.
On the Hawaiian island, an attempt to bring together a pair of the world’s rarest birds failed in May when the female bird, after being transferred to the territory of the only male, flew back to her own home range without encountering the male. There were only three surviving birds of this kind.
Besides the upsetting stories, some good news may make people relieved. Efforts to save the kakapo—New Zealand’s giant ground-nesting parrot, met with more success. The last surviving birds, brought together on one island, produced 24 chicks, more than in the whole of the previous two decades. This brought the world total to 86 kakapo, compared with 50 in 1995.
Obviously, the burden is heavy and the mad is long, so both the government and the public should pull together and fight for a more colorful and diverse world. [br] What do you know about Afghanistan from the first paragraph?
选项
A、Terrorists have destroyed the forests in Afghanistan.
B、Afghanistan has suffered from the natural and man-made disasters.
C、Soma refugees hunt snow leopards to gain profits in the border business.
D、There has been a large area of forests in Afghanistan before.
答案
B
解析
文章第一段提到“The bombing campaign in Afghanistan has worsened the environmental disaster that was initiated by years of civil conflict and drought.”在阿富汗,多年的内战和干旱所造成的环境破坏由于炸弹的轰炸而更加恶化。所以,选项B“阿富汗曾受过天灾人祸之苦”是完全正确的。选项C和D都有相当的迷惑性。选项C说一些难民猎捕雪豹以在边境贸易中谋取利益是不正确的;关键要知道buy在文中的意思不是买,而是获得、赢得。选项D“阿富汗曾有过大面积的森林”这一说法无法从文章中推断出来,因为文中只说到了现在对森林的破坏而没有说原来是什么情况。
