三、阅读理解。
①Emperor penguins, the largest of their kind, were listed as an endangered species in 2022 because the Antarctic sea ice that they live on is melting. Scientists now use technology to track（追踪）their movement and try to protect them.
②Scientists track emperor penguin groups by looking at pictures taken by satellites above Earth. Their poo stain（粪便痕迹）is left on the ice and can be seen in the pictures from space. When scientists first started using satellites, they only knew of 28 groups. Now, they have found 66.
③Even using satellites, it is difficult to accurately count how many penguins live in different groups. Luckily, scientists can improve this situation by studying the area's weather. Measuring wind speed and temperature can help predict if the penguins stay together or scatter apart across the ice. If scientists know what the weather was like when the pictures were taken, they can better get how many penguins are left.
④Scientists can also monitor penguins' movements by giving them special electronic tags（标签）. Information on the tags can be read by a scanner that is carried by a robot called ECHO. It travels around penguin groups, scanning the tags of different penguins to collect data. ECHO uses a camera and a special sensor to build up a picture of the area. The robot also uses AI to recognise the penguins, and it can move very slowly so that it doesn't make the birds stressed.
⑤Daniel Zitterbart, from Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in the US, told New Scientist magazine that he hopes the technology will lead to a "golden age of research" for emperor penguins.
() 15. How can satellites help track emperor penguins?
A. By measuring wind speed.
B. By counting penguins' number.
C. By taking photos of penguins.
D. By stopping the ice from melting.
() 16. What does the underlined word "scatter" in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Spread widely.
B. Fight angrily.
C. Grow quickly.
D. Hug closely.
() 17. Which ways do scientists use to track emperor penguins?
①Using satellites to find their poo stains on the ice.
②Putting electronic tags on them and using a robot to read the tags.
③Watching them with underwater cameras.
④Guessing their numbers by studying weather conditions.
A. ①②③
B. ②③④
C. ①③④
D. ①②④
() 18. Which shows the RIGHT structure of the passage?

15.C 16.A 17.D 18.A

【分析】
本题为英语阅读理解题，包含细节理解、词义猜测、方法判断、文章结构四类题型。解题思路：1. 针对细节题（15、17题），需定位原文对应段落，找到与选项匹配的信息；2. 词义猜测题（16题），通过上下文反义关系推断生词含义；3. 文章结构题（18题），梳理各段落主旨，判断整体结构。
【解析】
15题：定位原文第②段第一句“Scientists track emperor penguin groups by looking at pictures taken by satellites above Earth.”可知，卫星通过拍摄照片帮助追踪帝企鹅，故选C。A项测风速是第③段内容，与卫星无关；B项卫星无法准确计数，需结合天气辅助；D项卫星不能阻止冰融化，均错误。
16题：第③段中“stay together or scatter apart”为反义并列结构，“stay together”意为“聚在一起”，故“scatter”意为“分散”，对应A选项“Spread widely”（广泛散开），B（生气打架）、C（快速生长）、D（紧紧拥抱）均不符合语境，故选A。
17题：逐一判断方法：①卫星找粪便痕迹（第②段）、②电子标签+机器人读标签（第④段）、④研究天气猜数量（第③段）均正确；③水下摄像头未提及，错误。故①②④对应选项D，选D。
18题：梳理文章结构：第①段总起（帝企鹅濒危，用技术追踪）；第②段讲卫星追踪；第③段讲天气辅助计数；第④段讲机器人追踪；第⑤段总结展望。对应选项A的结构，故选A。
【答案】
15.C 16.A 17.D 18.A
【知识点】
英语阅读理解、细节理解题、词义猜测题、文章结构题
【点评】
本题围绕科技保护帝企鹅展开，题型全面，侧重考查学生的信息定位能力和语篇逻辑梳理能力，整体难度适中，是常见的英语阅读理解题型。
