题目内容
【题目】 The documentary Blood Lions shows South Africa's cruel "canned' lion hunting industry. In canned hunts, lions are raised by humans and kept in enclosed spaces on private hunting areas. Hunters can get trophy (战利品)easily in exchange for fees of up to $50, 000. There are about 8,000 ranch lions in South Africa. So the country’s hunt operators can make a fortune.
Ian Michler was a lead character in the film. He talked about Blood Lions last July when it was shown in Durban, South Africa. The film has since been viewed in 185 countries. More than 50 screenings have been held at film festivals and in meetings of special interest groups. This year, Blood Lions will be shown at every major tourism conference in Europe and Africa.
Outside the film, Michler and the team are running a global campaign. They are aiming at ending canned hunts and other cold-blooded activities involving lions and other animals.
Australia became the first country, in February 2015, to forbid imports of lion trophies. It was followed by France in November, That month, Blood Lions was shown in the European Parliament. As a result, the government of Finland, Italy, and Spain decided to hold their own screenings. There are a number of other countries likely to do the same.
At the same time, at the end of last year, the world's leading group of African lion researchers offered an important suggestion They advised that any analysis of the present state of wild lions in South Africa should not include its thousands of ranch lions. Wild lions in South Africa now number some 3, 000. There are around 20,000 wild lions in Africa.
"The great majority of lion populations in Africa have been reduced,” says Hans Bauer, lion researcher at Oxford University Wildlife Conservation Research Unit. 'It's important to stress that South Africa's ranch lions are horror that has nothing to do with lion protection. These lions should never be taken into account in any serious analysis of the state of lions in Africa."

本文是一篇说明文,介绍了《血狮》的主演米克尔和他的团队发起的一场全球性的保护狮子的运动。
【1】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The film has since been viewed in 185 countries. More than 50 screenings have been held at film festivals and in meetings of special interest groups. This year, Blood Lions will be shown at every major tourism conference in Europe and Africa.”可知,《血狮》在185个国家放映,在电影节和特殊利益集团的会议上举行了50多次放映,今年,它还将在欧洲和非洲的每一次大型旅游会议上亮相,这些都证明了《血狮》具有国际影响力,故A项正确。
【2】推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Michler and the team are running a global campaign. They are aiming at ending canned hunts and other cold-blooded activities involving lions and other animals.”可知,米克尔和他的团队正在进行一项全球运动,目标是结束罐装狩猎和其他涉及狮子和其他动物的冷血活动,紧接着第四段介绍了这场运动的成果:2015年2月,澳大利亚成为第一个禁止进口狮子战利品的国家。法国紧随其后,11月,《血狮》欧洲议会上放映后,芬兰、意大利和西班牙政府决定举行自己的放映,其他一些国家可能也决定这样做,这说明和米克尔和他的团队发起的全球运动取得了显著成果,故C项正确。
【3】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It's important to stress that South Africa's ranch lions are horror that has nothing to do with lion protection. These lions should never be taken into account in any serious analysis of the state of lions in Africa.”可知,汉斯鲍尔认为需要强调的是,南非的牧场狮子与狮子保护无关,在任何对非洲狮子状况的严肃分析中,都不应该考虑到这些狮子,由此可知,他建议对狮子进行正确地分析,故A项正确。
【4】推理判断题。通读全文可知,本文介绍了《血狮》的主演米克尔和他的团队发起的一场全球性的保护狮子的运动,因此文章的目的是报道一个动物保护运动,故B项正确。
本篇第4题A项的干扰性较大,文章开篇就提到了《血狮》这部电影,所以有些同学会误认为本文的目的是介绍这部电影所反映的内容,但根据第三段中的“Outside the film, Michler and the team are running a global campaign.”可知,本文只是从《血狮》这部电影入手,实际上介绍的是《血狮》的主演米克尔和他的团队发起的一场全球性的保护狮子的运动,因此文章的目的是报道一个动物保护运动。
