CarlJones通過(guò)人工繁殖的方式是瀕臨滅絕的鳥類的數(shù)量逐漸增加，并且因此獲得了2016年的印第安的波利斯獎(jiǎng)。（1）考查詞義猜測(cè)。第二段中的“forhis40yearsofworkinMauritius,wherehesavedanendangeredkestrelfrombecomingthenextGreatAuk.”是對(duì)前面句子的補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明，再由“wonthe2016IndianapolisPrize”可推知，這里的accolade與獲獎(jiǎng)有關(guān)，故選C。（2）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第二段中的“wherehesavedanendangeredkestrelfrombecomingthenextGreatAuk”可知，他保護(hù)了瀕臨滅絕的紅隼，使他免于遭受GreatAuk的情況，因此可知GreatAuk是一種已經(jīng)滅絕的鳥類，選B。（3）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)第四段中的“Adecadelater,thenumberofMauritiuskestrelshadsoaredtoover300andtodaytherearearound400inthewild.

”可知紅隼的數(shù)量已經(jīng)開(kāi)始增加了，所以推斷出人工繁殖的方法很有效，故選A。（4）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段“Abiologistoncecriticizedforstealingeggsfromthenestsoftherarestbirdintheworldhasbeenawardedthe"NobelPrize"ofconservationafterhismethodssavedninespeciesfromextinction.”；以及倒數(shù)第二段中的“Inthe1970stherewasfierceoppositiontothecaptivebreedingtechniques,withcriticsarguingthattheyweretooriskyandtooktheemphasisoffbreedinginthewild.”可知Jones教授從稀有鳥類的巢穴中取出鳥蛋的行為被一些人批評(píng)，故選D?！军c(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測(cè)和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時(shí)根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，從而選出正確答案。3．閱讀理解

”可知作者對(duì)Helga哭泣時(shí)來(lái)來(lái)往往的人漠不關(guān)心的態(tài)度印象深刻，受到了觸動(dòng)，故選C。（2）考查詞義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)第五段中的“
