A decade ago biologists identified a remote protected area in northern Laos, called Nam Et-Phou Louey, as the country’s probable last haven for wild tigers. To formally【C1】________ this supposition, researchers set up camera traps in 2013 and quickly【C2】________two tigers’ presence.【C3】________the success was short-lived: over their study’s four-year course, they never saw those or any other tigers again. This result proves that tigers are now functionally 【C4】________in Laos.
The researchers also found that leopards, formerly presumed to still live in the park, have【C5】________as well. "For the remaining protected areas in Southeast Asia for tigers, this was an important one—maybe【C6】________a potential jewel in the crown," says senior author David Macdonald, a wildlife conservationist at the University of Oxford. "To find that that jewel has blinked out is devastating." Laos’s tiger loss is part of a(n)【C7】________trend across Southeast Asia; the animals have【C8】________disappeared from Vietnam and Cambodia. In almost every study site Macdonald and his colleagues have surveyed, wild tigers—which number fewer than 4,000 worldwide—are in steep【C9】________or completely absent. So are once【C10】________leopards.
Habitat loss is partly to【C11】________. but Macdonald says that the main【C12】________is "the astonishing, destructive tide of illegal hunting." Akchousanh Rasphone from Oxford, and her colleagues installed and【C13】________300 camera stations across Nam Et-Phou Louey’s nearly 6,000 square kilometers of rugged, steep mountain ridges and【C14】________forest. Over four years they observed 43 mammal and bird species—but no leopards and, after 2013, no tigers.
Leading international non-profit groups support Laos’s efforts【C15】________illegal hunting in its main protected areas, but as in many other countries,【C16】________still find ways to kill wildlife. "These findings are not at all surprising," says Ullas Karanth, a biologist at the Center for Wildlife Studies in Bengaluru. "There’s so much forest and so much【C17】________at this study site and throughout Southeast Asia, but without ground-level【C18】________against local people doing industrial-scale hunting, the wildlife will go." Tigers can【C19】________in human-dominated landscapes: India has the world’s second highest human population, but it has prioritized tiger【C20】________and now hosts two thirds of the planet’s remaining wild tigers.
【C3】
选项
A、But
B、So
C、And
D、If
答案
A
解析
空格所在部分需要填入一个逻辑词,与上一句形成正确的逻辑关系。分析上一句语意,即科学家证实了老虎的存在,而空格后表达此成功是短暂的(the success、was short-lived),强调后面再也没有发现老虎,由此可以得知两句为转折关系。观察选项,只有A项But表转折,故为答案。B项So,表示因果关系;C项And,表示并列关系;D项If,表示假设关系。故其他三个选项都不符合题意,均排除。
