　　Ⅳ.阅读理解

　　Thousands of eggs of the endangered Olive Ridley turtles (海龟) on the beach have failed to hatch this year because of the recent oil spill. An oil coat had spread over a seven km area near the nesting site off the Rushikulya beach after around eight tons of furnace oil leaked from an Essar­owned vessel near Gopalpur port, 20 km from here, on April 12.

　　Being pushed by high tide, the spilled oil spread to the coast. Villagers claimed that they had seen carcasses of adult turtles along the coast after the sea water had been contaminated. Around 155, 000 of the rare Olive Ridleys had nested along the coastline in March while the mass hatching of eggs, which continued for a week, ended last week.

　　“The authorities cleaned only 2 km—3 km stretch of the beach. Many eggs were damaged due to the effect of oil deposits. Moreover, many baby turtles failed to move out of the nest as the soil also got harder，” Sahu, who along with villagers of Purunabandha has been working in the turtle conservation programme in the last 16 years, said.

　　Turtle expert Kartik Shanker also raised similar concerns. “The oil spill will have an effect on the mortality rate of the hatchings. But scientifically, it is not possible to arrive at a mortality figure for it，” Shanker, a professor at the Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, said.

　　Marine scientist Bijay Kumar Sahu said there was an immediate need for a detailed multi­discipline faculty study on the long­term impact of the oil spill on the marine environment. State forest and wildlife officials, however, refuted (反驳) the claims. “The oil spill has had no effect on the hatching process. Oil was cleaned from the beach a long time ago and the issue is now a closed chapter，” the state's Chief Conservator of Forests (Wildlife), Srivastava said.

　　The mortality rate of the hatchings is usually high with only one out of every thousand surviving to become an adult turtle. “Out of around 100­120 eggs laid by a single female turtle, only about 80 of them hatch. The new­borns then face threats from predators like crows, jackals, etc. They also get eaten up by sea predators，” wildlife activist Biswajit Mohanty said.

　　石油的泄漏给海洋生物带来了很大的影响，本文主要论述了石油泄漏对海龟孵化的影响。

　　1．Many baby turtles couldn't get out of their nests after they were hatched because ________.

　　A．their parents failed to find them

　　B．the oil made the soil hard to break

　　C．there was too much oil surrounding them

　　D．they were too weak to get out of their nests

　　答案：B　考查细节理解。根据文章第三段中的“many baby turtles failed to move out of the nest as the soil also got harder”可知许多小海龟在被孵化出来后无力破开经过石油浸透而变硬的土壤。

　　2．The underlined “it”in Paragraph 4 probably refers to ______.

　　A．the oil spill

　　B．the mortality rate

　　C．the rate of hatching

　　D．the survival of turtles

　　答案：A　考查代词指代。根据文章第四段内容可知，如今还很难对因为石油泄漏而造成的死亡数字作出科学统计，因此it指代的是前面提到的石油泄漏。

　　3．Srivastava's opinion is different from that of some other scientists in that ________.

　　A．the long­term effect of the oil spill remains to be seen

　　B．the effect of the oil spill is quite clear and it needs no study

　　C．the hatching of turtles is free from the effect of the oil spill

　　D．the oil spill does lead to a higher mortality rate of the hatchings

　　答案：C　考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段可知， Srivastava认为石油泄漏对于海龟的孵化没有影响，这一点与一些科学家的看法相反。

　　4．The best title for the passage should be “________”．

　　A．The mortality rate of the hatching of turtles

　　B．Oil spill spoils thousands of turtle eggs

　　C．How turtles survive the oil spill

　　D．Effect of oil spill on the environment

　　答案：B　考查主旨大意。浏览全文不难看出本文主要是围绕石油泄漏对海龟孵化的影响来讨论的，因此选项B适合作标题。
