affects hibernating animals, causing them to wake up earlier. while this may seem a little concern, it is in fact a significant environmental problem. the shortened hibernation period could actually lead to significant declines in the population of several species. some of the first concrete evidence of the phenomenon came from colorado, where researchers at the rocky mountain biological lab have been observing marmot(旱獭)hibernation behavior since the 1970s. in the early days of their studies, marmots generally hibernated several weeks into the month of may. nowadays, however, temperatures in the area have risen by 2. 5 degrees fahrenheit, and the marmots wake up about a month earlier. at least the marmots are still hibernating. several other animals have not been hibernating at all recently. brown bears in the spanish cantabrian mountains did not hibernate last year. in parts of the united states, chipmunks(花鼠)also skipped the hibernation period. the bears seem to have survived without losing many individuals. the chipmunks, however, were not so lucky. many of the animals died of starvation during the winter. the problem with animals waking up early, or skipping hibernation altogether, lies with the creatures metabolism(新陈代谢). when the animals hibernate, their metabolism drops significantly. the animals heart rate slows, and they require very little energy to live. when the animals awake from their winter slumber, their metabolism returns to normal. but while their metabolism may be as active as it was before hibernation, food sources arent as available as they were before. a marmot may wake up when temperatures get warmer, thinking its spring, but plants will not have got the amount of sun they need to signal their spring period of growth. so until the plants grow, the marmots have no reliable food source. many scientists believe the problem will continue to get worse. in addition to changes in hibernation patterns, some believe that other animals will also begin to change their migration patterns or begin to give birth earlier. for many biologists, thats a scary prospect. terry root, an animal expert at stanford university, said, “i do think what we will be facing is the extinction of many species. ”【文章大意】全球变暖带来的连锁反应是多方面的, 其中之一就是导致一些冬眠动物的冬眠期缩短, 这会给这些动物带来巨大的影响。1. what is the viewpoint of the writer? a. global warming will continue to get worse as time goes on. b. global warming will lead to shortened hibernation of some animals. c. shortened hibernation will result in declines in the population of animals. d. some animals will skip hibernation altogether. 【解析】选c。细节理解题。由第一段最后一句话可知答案为c。2. the writer sets the example of the marmot so as to. a. explain that global warming influences animals hibernationb. indicate that the weather gets warmer and warmer nowc. show that the weather in the united states is quite differentd. say some animals do not hibernate now due to warm weather【解析】选a。细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句话可知作者是想借这个例子来说明全球变暖使得动物的冬眠期缩短了。3. the underlined word“slumber”in the fourth paragraph means“”. a. weatherb. activityc. nestd. sleep【解析】选d。词义猜测题。联系本句中的awake from可知答案为d项。4. why cant marmots find enough food when they wake up? a. because there are too many marmots in the wild now. b. because plants havent received enough sunlight for spring growth. c. because winter days end much earlier than before. d. because more and more animal species skip hibernation now. 【解析】选b。细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的but plants will not have got the amount of sun they need to signal their spring period of growth可知答案为b项。9. terry root holds a(n)attitude towards the future of animals. a. optimisticb. doubtfulc. pessimisticd. sensitive【解析】选c。观点态度题。根据文章最后一句话i do think what we will be facing is the extinction of many species. 可以看出他是持悲观态度。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的a、b、c和d项中，选出最佳选项。it was reported last week that developers could take photos from apple mobile and google android devices without the phone owners
