12、險(xiǎn)。故答案選D。4B推理判斷題。最后一段主要介紹了由于濫伐森林，亞馬遜熱帶雨林覆蓋率在下降，正面臨消失的危險(xiǎn)；由此可推知，文章接下來應(yīng)是針對這種情況介紹如何保護(hù)亞馬遜熱帶雨林。故答案選B。亮點(diǎn)句積累：The addition of transport routes has led to increased settlement and deforestation，and at the present rate，scientists estimate that the Amazon rain forest will be reduced by 40% in two decades.(最后一段最后
