Question

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，選擇正確答案。
After a confirmed rabies(狂犬病) case in Parke County, Indiana, experts are urging caution if you find a bat(蝙蝠) in your home or office.
“If you try to kill a bat, you are more likely to get bitten,” said Joy O'Keefe, assistant professor of biology and director of Indiana State University's Centre for Bat Research, Outreach and Conservation. “Most bats people find in their houses are healthy and are not going to bite them and give them rabies.” But they could be a federally endangered species, such as the Indiana Bat, which is found in this area.
So if you spot a bat in your home or office, don't kill it or touch it with bare hands, O'Keefe said. Instead, put on a pair of heavy gloves and gently move it into a box or bucket. Once contained, the bat can be removed outside.
“If it's a healthy bat, it'll fly away eventually,” O'Keefe said. “If it doesn't move or seem to be healthy, you can take it to the health department to be tested.”
This is the time of year when bats move from their summer resting sites to their winter resting sites, O'Keefe said.
“We get calls every year during the first month of school year from people finding bats in the university's buildings,” said O'Keefe.
Bats are a great help to people, as every night they can eat up to their entire body weight of insects. Bats, however, are facing great threats from epidemics(流行性疾病), habitat destruction and other things.
“The best way the average person can help bats is by understanding them and by telling other people how awesome bats are and what bats do for us,” O' Keefe said. “Hopefully, it will make people think that if there's a bat in their house, they should try to get it out but not kill it. That would be really positive for bats—to not have people be one of their major threats.”
（1）According to the text, experts are giving the public a warning about _______.
A.the biting by bats
B.the danger of keeping bats
C.the spreading of an infectious disease
D.the extinction of an endangered species
（2）In O'Keefe's opinion, when you find a bat in your house, you should _______.
A.put it on a tree

D.winter
（4）The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph probably means _______.
A.what bats like to eat

【答案】
（1）A
（2）C
（3）C
（4）B
【解析】這是一篇說(shuō)明文，蝙蝠對(duì)人類(lèi)有益，但是被蝙蝠咬傷后會(huì)使人得狂犬病,所以O(shè)'Keefe建議我們?cè)谑覂?nèi)發(fā)現(xiàn)蝙蝠時(shí)，不要空手去捉它們或傷害它們，而是要戴上手套把它們移到戶(hù)外。

⑴考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中的“After a confirmed rabies case”及第二段中的“If you try to kill a bat, you're more likely to get bitten”可知因?yàn)橛辛吮或�蝠咬后�?dǎo)致人得狂犬病的案例,所以專(zhuān)家向公眾發(fā)出了小心被蝙蝠咬的警告。故選A。

⑵考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中的“put on a pair of heavy gloves and gently move it into a box or bucket. Once contained, the bat can be removed outside”可知O'Keefe建議大家戴上手套把蝙蝠移到戶(hù)外。故選C。

⑶考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第五段中的“This is the time of year when bats move from their summer resting sites to their winter resting sites”及第六段中的“during the first month of school year”可知蝙蝠在這個(gè)時(shí)期從它們夏天的窩遷徙到冬天的窩，再根據(jù)新學(xué)年的第一個(gè)月可推測(cè)這篇文章寫(xiě)于秋季。故選C。

⑷考查猜測(cè)詞義。根據(jù)本段內(nèi)容可知O'Keefe認(rèn)為保護(hù)蝙蝠最好的方法就是了解它們并且告訴人們蝙蝠有多棒,它們能為人類(lèi)做很多事情。O'Keefe希望“人們對(duì)蝙蝠的這種認(rèn)識(shí)”能避免人類(lèi)成為蝙蝠的最大威脅之一。It指代人們對(duì)蝙蝠的這種認(rèn)識(shí)，故選B.
