35、lack of understanding from the drone operator of the effects his actions were having on the bears.” Other scientists have found that when a drone is hovering near, a bears heart rate can increase from 41 beats per minute to 162 beats per minute a high enough rate to cause a heart attack.Human distur

Researchers at the University of Berkeley recently found that many mammals are turning into “night owls” again to avoid contact with humans. Such a shift might not only affect those species themselves, but also have numerous chain

37、effects.We human beings find ourselves in a strange position in nature. We are part of it but also separate from it, now more than ever, since most of us live in cities. So, when we go off hiking into wild areas to “re-connect” with nature, we should go softly and considerately. Its OK to get close

41、。人类大多与大自然分离，作者提出：当我们与大自然接触时，要与动物保持适当的距离。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“There was a video many of you may have seen on the Internet recently of a bear and its cub (幼崽) climbing up a steep, snow-covered hill in Russia.

43、aving on the bears.” Other scientists have found that when a drone is hovering near, a bears heart rate can increase from 41 beats per minute to 162 beats per minute a high enough rate to cause a heart attack.(相反，科学家们感到不安的是，这两只熊被拍摄它们的无人机吓得做出了危险的、不必要的攀登。爱达荷大学的索菲吉尔伯特说：“这表明无人机操作员完全不了解他的行为对熊的影响。”其他科学家发现

44、，当无人机在附近盘旋时，一只熊的心率可以从每分钟41次增加到每分钟162次，这一速度足以引起心脏病发作)”可知，科学家们发现无人机靠近熊引起了熊的恐慌，心率上升有可能对熊造成严重的危害。由此可知科学家们没有对此欢呼是因为他们知道熊登山的真正原因是因为害怕。故选C项。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段“Human disturbance has actually been having a far-reaching influence on wildlife. Researchers at the University of Berkeley recently found that many

45、mammals are turning into “night owls” again to avoid contact with humans. Such a shift might not only affect those species themselves, but also have numerous chain effects.(人类的干扰实际上对野生动物产生了深远的影响。伯克利大学的研究人员最近发现，许多哺乳动物为了避免与人类接触，正再次变成“夜猫子”。这种转变可能不仅会影响这些物种本身，还会产生许多连锁效应)”可知，许多哺乳动物为了避免与人类接触而转变作息，但这会影响物种本身

46、且带来连锁反应。由此可知，人类干扰对野生动物造成的影响是生态不平衡。故选C项。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“So, when we go off hiking into wild areas to “re-connect” with nature, we should go softly and considerately. Its OK to get close to our animal friends, just not too close we wouldnt want to scare them, would we?(所以，当我们去野外徒步旅行，与大自然“重新连接”时，我们

47、应该温柔而体贴。和我们的动物朋友亲近是可以的，只是不要太亲密我们不想吓到它们，对吧？)”可知作者提倡人类与动物接触应保持适当的距离。由此可推知，作者会同意C项内容表述的观点“尊重人与动物之间的距离”。故选C项。(D)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。Professional courses, such as Masters in International Business or MIB, have been taken by many students in the last two decades.
