Ⅲ.[主旨大意] 本文作者通过佛罗里达近几年兴起的饲养外来宠物的现象发表了自己的观点,即当外来宠物适应了本地的环境,又繁殖起来时,有可能会破坏当地的生态平衡。
34.B 细节理解题。综合第二段可知,人们近几年热衷于养外来宠物,却没有思考当这些宠物长大了怎么办。由此举了Burmesepythons的例子来说明当宠物长大了,人们不耐烦了就会把它们投放到野外,这就是这种宠物出现在野外的原因。故选B。
35.C 细节理解题。根据题干可以直接定位到第三段。根据第三段中的“ButtheclimateinsouthernFloridaiswetandwarm—similartotheareaswheremanyoftheanimalsarenaturallyfound.”即,佛罗里达的气候温暖湿润,与这些动物的原生环境相似,所以很多外来动物能在佛罗里达的野外活得长久。故选C。
36.C 推理判断题。本题是判断作者态度的题。由第四段开头句“Theproblemwiththeseunexpectedanimalsisthatscientistsdon’talwaysknowwhichoneswillchangeorharmthelocalenvironment.”可知,科学家们尚不能知道是哪种外来动物在野外泛滥会导致环境恶化,这正是作者担忧的问题;最后一段作者举了多米诺骨牌的例子又强调了自己的观点。
37.D 主旨大意题。综合全文可知,作者通过分析佛罗里达野外出现外来宠物的原因来强调了自己的观点:外来宠物在野外的泛滥有可能会破坏当地生态平衡。选项D.Theproblemwhichoccurswithkeepingexoticpets.的意思是“伴随着饲养外来宠物所产生的问题”。故选D。
