【題目】閱讀理解
Many animals have disappeared during the long history of the earth. The most famous of these animals are dinosaurs. They lived on the earth tens of millions of years ago, long before humans came into being and their future seemed to be safe at that time. There were many different kinds of dinosaurs and a number of them used to live in China. The eggs of twenty-five species (種類(lèi)) have been found in Xixia County, Nanyang, Henan Province. Not long ago a rare new species of bird-like dinosaur was discovered in Chaoyang County, Liaoning Province. When scientists inspected the bones, they were surprised to find that these dinosaurs could not only run like the others but also climb trees. They learned this from the way the bones were joined together
Dinosaurs died out suddenly about 65 million years ago. Some scientists think it came after an unexpected incident when a huge rock from space hit the earth and put too much dust into the air. Others think the earth got too hot for the dinosaurs to live on any more .Nobody knows for sure why and how dinosaurs disappeared from the earth in such a short time.
We know many other wild plants, animals, insects and birds have died out more recently. According to a UN report, some 844 animals and plants have disappeared in the last 500 years. The dodo is one of them. It lived on the Island of Mauritius and was a very friendly animal. But it disappeared in the late of sixteen century.

【解析】這是一篇關(guān)于動(dòng)物滅絕的記敘文。主要講述了恐龍的存在年代及其滅亡，還有恐龍化石的發(fā)現(xiàn)與對(duì)恐龍滅絕的原因的猜測(cè)。在最后又講到了地球上的物種在不斷滅絕減少。
(1)細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段 "They lived on the earth tens of millions of years ago, long before humans came into being"可知，他們生活在千萬(wàn)年前的地球上，在人類(lèi)形成的很久之前。故選C。
(2)細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段" Some scientists think it came after an unexpected incident when a huge rock from space hit the earth and put too much dust into the air. Others think the earth got too hot for the dinosaurs to live on any more"可知，一些科學(xué)家認(rèn)為恐龍滅絕的原因是宇宙隕石撞擊地球在空氣中揚(yáng)起大量灰塵，其他科學(xué)家則認(rèn)為是地球變得太熱不再適于恐龍生存居住�！癗obody knows for sure why and how dinosaurs disappeared from the earth in such a short time.”沒(méi)有人確切的知道恐龍為什么又是如何在如此短的時(shí)間里消失在地球上的。故選A。
(3)細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段“ According to a UN report, some 844 animals and plants have disappeared in the last 500 years. ”可知，根據(jù)英國(guó)的一篇報(bào)道，在近500年間共有844種植物和動(dòng)物已經(jīng)消失了。故選A。
