课后巩固提升
Ⅰ.1.C at the beginning of…为固定搭配,意为“在……之初”。
2.C 句意:许多动物因为严重的污染处于危险中。in danger意为“处于危险状态”,符合语境。
3.C
4.D 考查名词作定语和主谓一致。第一个空作定语修饰doctors。man,woman等名词作定语时,要与后面的名词在数上保持一致,可首先排除A、C两项;由疑问词how many可知答语应为医生的数量,“the number of+可数名词的复数”作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式。故选D。
5.D
Ⅱ.[主旨大意] 这篇短文讲述的是现在老虎的数量急剧下降,如果再不采取措施,老虎就要灭绝了。中国和其他12个国家参加了野生动物基金会的一个项目,拯救老虎,也要拯救老虎的食物,如鹿和野猪等。

5.A
6.B
7.A 考查动词短语。句意:它的目的是拯救野生的老虎,结束老虎被猎杀的现状。根据句意可知,这句话说的是野生动物基金会开始这个项目的目的,故选A。
8.C 9.D
10.C 考查动词。根据文意可知,老虎以鹿和野猪为食,所以拯救老虎也就要拯救这些老虎的食物,不然老虎会被饿死了。故选C。
