Citizen Scientists
Understanding how nature responds to climate change will require monitoring key life cycle events- flowering, the appearance of leaves, the first frog calls of the spring--all around the world. But ecologists can't be __________(51) so they're turning to non-scientists, sometimes called citizen scientists, for help.
Climate scientists are not present everywhere. __________ (52) there are so many places in the world and not enough scientists to observe all of them, they're asking your help in __________ (53)signs of climate change across the world. The citizen scientist movement encourages __________ (54)people to observe a very specific research interest--birds, trees, flowers budding, etc.- and send their observations__________ (55) a giant database to be observed by professional scientists. This helps a small number of scientists track a__________ (56) amount of data that they would never be able to gather on their own. __________(57) like citizen journalists helping large publications cover a hyper-local beat, citizen scientists are ready for the condition- where they live. __________ . (58) that's needed to become one is a few minutes each day or each week to gather data and __________(59)it in.
A group of scientists and educators launched an organization last year __________(60) the National Phenology (生物气候学) Network. "Phenology" is what scientists call the study of the timing of events in nature.
One of the group's first efforts relies on scientists and non-scientists__________ (61) to collect data about plant flowering and leafing every year. The program, called Project Bud Burst, collects cycle __________ (62) on a variety of common plants from across the United States. People participating in the project--which is__________ (63) to everyone--record their observations on the Project Bud Burst website.
"People don't__________ (64) to be plant experts- they just have to look around and see what's in their neighborhood," says Jennifer Schwartz, an education consultant with the project.
"As we collect this data, we'll be able to make an estimate of__________(65) plants and communities of plants and animals will respond as the climate changes."

答案与解析
51.A。本题考查副词。题干:但是生态学家不可能__________ ,因此他们求助于普通公民的参与,这些公民有时被称为公民科学家。该段告诉我们,要在世界范围观察气候对大自然中生物的生命周期的影响,数量有限的科学家不可能足迹遍及天下,为此科学家求助于普通公民的参与。因此只能选择everywhere才能表示“遍及各地”。
52.D。本题考查逻辑关系。题干:__________ 世界各地地方很多,又没有足够的科学家来观察,他们就会寻求你的帮助来__________ 世界范围内的气候征兆的变化。这个复合句中主句是“寻求帮助来记录气候变化”,造成需要寻求帮助的原因是“没有足够的科学家”,因此此处的逻辑关系应为因果,故本题选D。
53.D。本题考查语义回现线索解题。题干:因为世界各地地方很多,又没有足够的科学家来观察,他们就会寻求你的帮助来__________ 世界范围内的气候征兆的变化。原因状语从句中讲到没有足够的科学家来“observe”,证明这个空格也需要填入observe:需要求助市民科学家来观察。故本题答案为D。
54.D。本题考查语义呼应。题干:公民科学家参与科学观察的运动鼓励__________ 人来观察一个特定研究领域……公民科学家与professional scientists是对应的,因此他们只是普通人:0rdinary people。
55.C。本题考查介词。题干:公民科学家参与科学观察的运动鼓励普通人来观察一个特定研究领域……并将这些数据送__________ 一个巨大的数据库,而这些数据是依靠他们自己的力量无法收集到的。send…to是固定搭配,意思是“将……送到……”。
56.A。本题考查语义呼应和固定搭配。题干:这能帮助小部分科学家追踪__________ 数据,而这些数据是依靠他们自己的力量无法收集到的。与small number ofscientists对应的应该是large amount ofdata,因此该空应该选large,其他选项都不是最佳答案。
57.B。本题考查副词的用法。题干:__________ 就像公民记者帮助报道传统新闻报道方式所忽略的小型社区的相关信息一样,公民科学家也对他们所居住的环境很熟悉。四个选项中只有much能修饰like,表示相似的程度。very只能修饰形容词,副词或者动词,as则引导从句或者加名词,many修饰可数名词的复数形式。
58.A。本题考查代词。题干:__________ 需要的就是每天或者每周留出几分钟来搜集数据并__________ 过来。这里that’s needed是空格处单词的定语从句,能与that搭配使用的不定代词充当先行词的,只有all。故本题答案为A。
59.A。本题考查动词。题干:所需要的就是每天或者每周留出几分钟来搜集数据并__________ 过来。公民科学家所干的事情就是观察并记录,然后将搜集的数据给发送到数据库里,因此这里用send最合适。
60.D。本题考查动词用法。题干:一群科学家和教育家在去年发起了一个__________ 纽约国家生物气候学的组织。“被称为”常常使用call,且常常放在名词后面充当后置定语。
61.A。本题考查语义。题干:其中一个小组的首要尝试就是依靠科学家__________ 非科学家来收集关于每年植物开花和长叶子的数据。根据上文语义,科学家和非科学家都是很重要的渠道。因此选用alike。
62.C。本题考查名词。题干:这一项目叫作花季追踪计划,它收集遍布美国的各种各样的植物生长周期的__________ 。本文几乎全文在讲公民科学家如何观察和搜集数据,因此用collect data是最合适的。
63.C。本题考查形容词。题干:参与这一项目的人们——这一计划对所有人__________ —把他们的观察记录在花季追踪计划的网站上。很明显,本题的意思是“这一计划对所有人都开放”,将观察记录在追踪计划网站上便是开放的方式。因此本题选open最合适。
64.D。本题考查动词。题干:人们没有__________ 成为专家——他们仅仅需要环视四周看看周围有什么。通过上下文可知,要做到公民科学家不需要成为植物学家(expert),只需要观察和记录。因此这里用have to(不得不)最合适,don’t have to的意思是“没有必要”。
65.B。本题考查从句连词。题干:通过收集数据,我们就能够估算出气候变化对植物和生物群落会有__________ 的影响。这里想表达气候变化是如何影响植物和生物的,因此选用how是最合适的。
