Just off the coast of Southern California sits Santa Cruz Island, where a magical creature called the island fox【C1】______A decade ago, this island’ s ecosystem was in【C2】______Wild pigs attracted golden eagles from the mainland, and those flying【C3】______crashed the fox population. So the Nature Conservancy launched a【C4】______war against the pigs, complete with helicopters and sharp shooters.
And it worked. Today, federal agencies are pulling the island fox from the Endangered Species List. It’ s the fastest-ever recovery of a mammal, joining peers like the Louisiana black bear as glowing successes in the history of the Endangered Species Act. But the recovery of Santa Cruz Island isn’ t just about the fox. The Nature Conservancy has【C5】______war on a multitude of invasive species here, from sheep to plants to the【C6】______Argentine ant. " Our philosophy with the island has always been, ’ OK,【C7】______the threats and let the island go back to what it was,’ " says ecologist Christina Boser. And it appears to be working. Native plants are coming back, and the fox once again bounds about carefree.
But keeping those foxes from harm will occupy Boser and her colleagues for years to come. You see, humans are still allowed on Santa Cruz Island, and they bring dogs. So Boser has to vaccinate her foxes against various diseases. "We’ re obligated to keep a pulse on the population for at least five years after the foxes are delisted," says Boser. That includes tagging the foxes and【C8】______their numbers to ensure nothing goes wrong.
This is the story of the little fox that has come back, and the people who have【C9】______their lives to protecting it. This is the story of wildlife conservation in the age of mass【C10】______.
A) aggressive I) hinders
B) chaos J) mammal
C) configuration K) monitoring
D) declared L) predators
E) dedicated M) remove
F) dwells N) tempt
G) extinction O) underlying
H) fierce
【C10】
选项
答案
G
解析
空格前为形容词mass,故本空需要填入一个名词。结合句意可知,这是在大规模灭绝时代保护野生动物的故事。备选项中只有extinction(灭绝,消灭)符合句意,故答案为G。
