Question

The coyote(叢林狼)that clever animal of wide-open spaces,has come to the nation’s captial.In fact ,coyotes have spread to every corner of the United States,changing their behaviors to fit new environments and causing researchers to deal with a troublesome new kind of creature:the city coyote.
The coyote originally lived in the middle of the continent.One of its most obvious characters is its smartness, which has made the animal a notorious（臭名昭著的）pest.Hunters trapped,shot and poisoned more than a million coyotes in the 1900s.It’s still one of America’s most hunted animals. Yet the coyote has survived.How has the coyote shown this extraordinary ability? “I guess if you wanted to use one word,it’d be ‘plasticity’. ”says Erie Gese,an expert at Utah State University. Coyotes can live alone, in pairs, or in large packs like wolves,hunt at night or during the day , occupy a small region or an area up to 40 square miles;and live on all sorts of food,from lizards（蜥蜴）and shoes, to ants and melons.
Unbelievably  people  helped coyotes  increase  when  they killed most of the wolves in the United States. The spreading of coyotes into city areas,though.is recent.They travel at night,crossing sidewalks and bridges.running along roads and ducking into culverts （鉆入涵洞）and underpassces .No one knows why coyotes are moving into cities, but experts explain that cleverer, more human-tolerant（不怕人的）coyotes are teaching urban survival skills to new generations.
Occasionally. coyotes might attack human beings. There have been about 160 attacks on people in recent years Therefore, people have been consistently told not to feed coyotes or leave pet food unsecured. That ,plus a large trapping program in the neighborhood, has cut down on the coyote population.

Answer 1

63．解析：這是一道詞義推斷題。從叢林狼可以獨居、群居，可以晚上捕食也可以白天捕食，地盤可大可小，食物種類多可以推斷出叢林狼的適應(yīng)環(huán)境能力非常強。
64．解析：這是一道主旨題。第一段描述叢林狼擴散到城市成為城市叢林狼，第二段描述叢林狼的環(huán)境適應(yīng)能力使之可以在城市生存，第三、四段描述叢林狼進入城市的過程和市民的反應(yīng)。整篇都是圍繞叢林狼的擴散到城市以及生存的原因進行描述。
65．解析：這是一道細節(jié)判斷題。從第三段最后一句“teaching urban survival skills to new generations”可知選C.選項A不對是因為叢林狼是到處都有而不是在西部。選項B錯誤是因為叢林狼早上晚上都可以出來捕食；選項D錯誤是雖然大量捕殺，但是叢林狼適應(yīng)性強還是生存下來了。
66．解析：這是一個細節(jié)推斷題。根據(jù)最后一段第3句：“people have been consistently told not to feed coyotes ”可以推斷選A。
