athey attack human beings.bwe need to study native animals.cthey cant live out of the rain forest.dwe do not know much about them yet.()3.what does the phrase “the wakeup call” in paragraph 3 most probably mean? aa new diseaseba clear warningca dangerous animalda morning call()4.the text suggests that in the future we _.amay have to fight against more new diseasesbmay easily get infected by diseases from dogs cshould not be allowed to have petsdshould stop buying pets from africa ()5.the last paragraph means _.awe should have laws to stop having pets at homebwild animals shouldnt be adopted as petsclaws should be passed to avoid pets diseases spreadingdpeople with pets should be stayed at home【解析】饲养宠物可能被传播疾病。猴痘本是非洲雨林中的一种疾病，现在突然出现在美国西部的孩子们身上。大多数人们认为只有人类才会感染的疾病其实就是来自动物。国家要制定严格的法律，以防止动物把疾病传播给人类。1d根据we have met the enemy, and he is ours. we bought him at a pet shop. when monkeypox, a disease usually found in the african rain forest, suddenly turns up in children in the american midwest, its hard not to wonder if the disease that comes from foreign animals is homing in on human beings.可推断，从宠物商店购买的动物身上携带疾病。2d根据a strange illness killed isaksens pets, and she now thinks that keeping foreign pets is a bad idea.“i dont think its fair to have them as pets when we have such a limited knowledge of them，”可判断。3b根据上文，猴痘是一种从非洲的动物身上传播到人类身上的疾病，紧接着作者说这种没有经过严格控制的法律需要改变。最后又以猴痘为例，由此可判断“the wakeup call”表示“一种警示”。4a根据we know very little about these new diseases. a new bug (病毒) may be kind at first. but it may develop into something harmful.可知新的病毒会转化成有害的东西，最后导致人与人的传播，因此我们必须与新的疾病作斗争。5c最后一段大意：我们必须改变不检疫而引进野生动物的规定，这样才能避免疾病的传播。阅读理解a food additive is any substance that is added to food. many people are put off by the idea of“chemicals in food.”the truth is that all food is made up of chemicals. natural substances like milk, as well as man-made ones like drinks on sale in the market, can be described by chemical formulas. some chemical substances are indeed harmful, but a person who refused to consume any chemicals would find nothing to eat.the things we eat can be divided into natural and man-made substances. some people feel that only natural foods are healthy and that all man-made ingredients are to be avoided. but many natural chemicals, found in plants and animals, are harmful when eaten, and some laboratory-made substances increase the nutritional value of food. other chemicals have natural and man-made forms that are exactly alike: vitamin c is vitamin c, whether it comes from a test tube or from an orange. like“chemical”,“man-made”doesnt necessarily mean“not fit to eat”.food additives are used for many reasons. we add sugar and salt and other things to foods we prepare at home to make them taste better. food producers have developed a range of additives that stabilize, thicken, harden, keep wet, keep firm, or improve the appearance of their products. additives can make food more convenient or nutritious, give it a longer shelf life, and make it more attractive to the consumer, thus increasing the sales and profits of the producers.food additives are presently the centre of a storm of serious argument. food producers have been known to use additives that have not been proved safe; some substances in common use have been proved unsafe and have been taken off the market. many people feel theres a risk of eating food to which anything has been added. but food additives are now regulated by the fda of the federal government, and new additives are subjected to strict testing before they can be placed on the market. for most people, the chances of developing serious si
