This cow would have measured 10 meters long, and weighed between five and ten tones. And it would spend most of its day cruising the seas, eating grass growing underwater. The cow in question was known as Steller’s sea cow, which is now extinct. Today, many people are unaware that such an extraordinary creature once existed, or don’t know its incredible story. But scientists have discovered many fundamental facts about this mystical animal. Surprisingly, the first recorded sighting of a Steller’s sea cow didn’t happen until 1741, when a sailing expedition was stuck on an uninhabited island, later named Bering Island. The sailor survived by hunting and eating the huge sea cow. Like its modern relatives, the sea cow lived in herds. That and its slowmoving behaviour made it easy to be caught. Those sailors that escaped Bering Island spread word of the bounty(大量 ) of meat to be found off its shores. As a result, more and more expeditions came to hunt the animals. One report stated that one sea cow could feed 33 men for a month. Incredibly, just 27 years after the island and species had been discovered by modern man, the last sea cow was reported killed. That makes the Steller’s sea cow one of the few truly large mammals known to have been driven extinct in the modern age. of the following words can be used to describe the Steller’s sea cow? A. Huge B. Fierce C. Aggressive D. Mild 30. The underlined word “That ” refers to the fact that _________. A. the sailor escaped Bering Island B. the sea cow was a kind of social animal C. more expeditions came to hunt the sea cow D. one sea cow could feed 33 men for a month 31.

When did the Steller’s sea cow bee extinct? C. How did the Steller’s sea cow bee extinct? D. What do we know about the Steller’s sea cow? 【答案】 【解析】 试题分析： 本文叙述 “the Steller’s sea 是怎样绝迹的 ”。 根据最后一段 Incredibly, just 27 years after the island and species had been discovered by modern man, the last sea cow was reported killed. That makes the Steller’s sea cow one of the few truly large mammals known to have been driven extinct in the modern sea cow 被杀死，那就使 Steller’s sea cow 在现代绝迹。 可知本文叙述的是 “the Steller’s sea 是怎样绝迹的 ”。 故选 C。 【学法指导】 计算题 数字计算题往往涉及多处信息，这就要求学生要处处留心、斤斤计较，方能解答正确。 计算题。 根据第三段第一句 Surprisingly, the first recorded sighting of a Steller’s sea cow didn’t happen until 1741, 在 1741年发现 Steller’s sea cow 和最后一段第一句 Incredibly, just 27 years after the island and species had been discovered by modern man, the last sea cow was reported Steller’s sea cow 在27年后被杀死，可知 1768年 Steller’s sea cow 灭绝，故选 B。 考点：考查说明文阅读 D Your next Saturday night takeaway could be brought to you by a robot after a major food delivery pany announced plans to use automated vehicles to transport meals. Europe’s biggest online takeaway food pany Just Eat has partnered with Starship Technologies to deliver food with robots on the streets of London later this month. “Nobody has ever done deliveries with land based robots,” said Allan Martinson, the chief operating officer of Starship. The robot courier can travel up to 4 miles per hour for about 10 miles. It uses a GPS signal and nine cameras to navigate(确定方向 ). Instead of a person arriving at their door, customers could find themselves receiving a notification(通知 ) on their phone that says a robot is on its way and a code to unlock the automated courier. “Put the code in, the ro bot opens up, and there’s your food,” said David Buttress, chief manager of Just Eat. The robot, which has so far been tested in Greenwich, Milton Keynes and Glastonbury, costs ￡ 1 to transport within 3 miles, pared with the ￡ 3 to ￡ 6 it costs for a human courier. To date 30 robots have driven nearly 5,000 miles without getting into an accident or finding themselves picked on by passersby. They have driven in more than 40 cities around the world, including London and Tallinn, Estonia. An initial worry was how the public would react to robots. But Martinson said the public has been calm when passing the delivery machine on the streets. “The most surprising reaction has been the lack of reaction,” said Martinson. Another significant fear was that people would disrupt(扰乱 ) the robots, or try to steal them and their contents. To prevent this, the robot is fitted with nine cameras, two way audio, and movement sensors that send a warning if it is lifted off the ground. And it opens only with a pass code provided to the customer via a notification. “It’s much easier to shoplift than it is to steal a robot,” said Martinson. 33. The test of Starship robots shows that ___________. A. they are easy to operate B. the robot delivery is apprecia。
