fromprogramstoconserveandexpandforests.Indiacomesfromintensive(集约的) growingoffoodcrops.”可知,中国和印度正引领着地球绿化的增加,而这主要源于中国的植树计划和两国的集约化农业。故选C。9.Whichofthefollowingstatementsmaytheresearchersagreewith?A.ThegreeningtrendinIndiawillcontinuetogoupwards.B.More“greening”meansbettercontrolofclimatechange.C.LandoverusethreatensthesuccessinthegreeningontheEarth.D.Thesustainabilityinglobalecosystemswillbegreatlyimproved.答案C解析推理判断题。根据第三段的内容可知,中国和印度的绿化面积占全球绿化面积的三分之一,但仅有全球9%的植被覆盖面积,考虑到人口稠密的国家普遍存在过度开发导致土地退化的现象,这是一个令人惊讶的发现。由此可推知,人们对土地的过度使用威胁着地球绿化的成功。故选C。10.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“offset”inthelastbutoneparagraphprobablymean?A.Prevent.B.Survive.C.Interrupt.D.Balance.答案D解析词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段最后一句可知,巴西和印度尼西亚等热带地区的生态系统的可持续性和生物多样性所受的负面影响仍然存在。再结合第三段的内容可知,画线词所在句的含义应是:研究人员指出,印度和中国主导的全球绿化的增加并不能抵消巴西和印度尼西亚等热带地区自然植被减少所带来的损失。offset是“抵消,弥补”之意,与balance“相抵,抵消”的含义相近。故选D。11.HowdoesNemanifeelaboutthefindings?A.Theyareapositiveindicatorofoverallhumannature.B.Theiraccuracyandreliabilityneedtobefurtherproved.C.Theyundervaluehumanscontributiontotheenvironment.D.Theirsignificanceforfutureresearchcannotbeoveremphasized.答案A解析推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Oncepeoplerealizetheresaproblem,theytendtofixit.”“.inthe90s,peoplerealizedit;andtodaythingshaveimproved.Humansareincrediblyadaptable.”可知,当人们意识到问题时,他们会想办法来解决。人类具有出乎意料的适应能力。由此可知,研究结果表明了人性积极的一面。故选A。题组训练二1话题:文字的重要性难度:建议用时:7分钟2019江西省名校(临川一中、南昌二中)联考Astheinternationaldemandfornarrative(叙事的)
