四、还原信息
Canada geese do not live only in Canada. They spend spring and summer in Alaska and northern Canada. (1) They usually fly to northern Mexico, but lately many began to fly to the south of the USA. This may be because it is warmer there now than it was in the past.
Canada geese fly very fast. They can fly as fast as 100 kilometres per hour. The geese usually travel in groups of about 100, but groups of 1,000 are also common (常见的). (2) But on sunny days they can fly as high as 2,500 metres.
Canada geese know when to travel. When the day becomes shorter and the temperature gets lower, they know it is time to leave. (3) A few days before leaving, all the geese get very excited. The Canada geese make a “V” shape in the sky when they fly south. This makes it easier for them to fly through the air. Each goose takes a turn being the first goose.
(4) Some scientists think the geese use the stars at night to help them know where they are.


A. They do well in checking the instructions.
B. They fly to the east of the USA.
C. This is usually at the end of August.
D. On cloudy days, the geese fly lower.
E. In autumn, many of these geese move to warmer places.
F. No one is sure how the geese find their way.

1. E
2. D
3. C
4. F

【分析】本题为英语补全短文题，解题思路为：先通读全文，明确文章围绕加拿大雁的迁徙、飞行、导航等习性展开；再逐个分析每个空缺处的上下文语境，结合选项内容匹配逻辑关系：第1空需衔接春夏栖息地与南迁的过渡内容，第2空需对应后文晴天飞行高度的对比内容，第3空需衔接迁徙时机与离开前状态的时间内容，第4空需引出后文关于导航方式的推测内容，最终选出符合逻辑的选项。
【解析】1. 第1空：前文提到加拿大雁春夏在阿拉斯加和加拿大北部，后文讲它们飞往墨西哥北部（更温暖的南方），E选项“秋天，这些雁中的很多会搬到更温暖的地方”承上启下，符合迁徙的时间与地点逻辑，故选E。2. 第2空：后文提到“在晴天它们能飞到2500米”，D选项“在阴天，雁飞得更低”与后文形成不同天气下飞行高度的对比，衔接自然，故选D。3. 第3空：前文说明“白天变短、气温变低时该离开”，后文提到“离开前几天它们很兴奋”，C选项“这通常在八月底”明确了迁徙离开的具体时间，衔接上下文，故选C。4. 第4空：后文提到“一些科学家认为雁用星星定位”，F选项“没人确定雁是怎么找到路的”引出后文关于导航方式的推测，符合逻辑，故选F。
【答案】1.E 2.D 3.C 4.F

Dear friends,

Yours,

Dear friends,
My name is Xixi. I’m one of people’s favourite animals—panda. I come from Sichuan, China. I am 13 years old. I am a national treasure and a symbol of China. I usually like to play with my friends. I also like climbing trees and sitting on the trees. I live mainly on bamboo.
But I live in great danger now. My living spaces are getting smaller and smaller, because people often take land for their own use. It’s also hard for me to find enough food because of pollution.
I hope human friends can help me. I hope that people can protect the environment and give me more spaces to live in. If you can cut down fewer bamboo forests, my friends and I will live an easier life.
Yours,
Xixi
