[2024·河南省焦作市高三上學(xué)期期中]In the 20th century, cnservatinists set ut t restre the Galapags giant trtise (巨型陸龜) n Espa?la—and the island ecsystem. Frm 1963 t 2020, cnservatinists reintrduced nearly 2,000 Galapags giant trtises t Espa?la. Since then, the trtises have cntinued t multiply in the wild, causing the ppulatin t blssm t an estimated 3,000.They've als seen the eclgical transfrmatin f Espa?la.
The trtises' return has als helped the critically endangered waved albatrss (信天翁)—a species that multiplies nly n Espa?la. During the island's wdy times, Maud Quinzin, a cnservatin geneticist wh has previusly wrked with Galapags trtises, says that peple had t repeatedly clear the areas the seabirds use as runways t take ff and land. Nw, if the landing places are getting vergrwn, they'll mve trtises int the area t take care f it fr them. The secret t this success is that—much like brwn bears and elephants—giant trtises are eclgical architects. As they wander arund, they change the landscape. They step n yung trees and bushes befre they can grw big enugh t blck the albatrsses' way.
The giant trtises likewise have a big impact n the giant species f prickly pear cactuses (仙人掌梨) that call Espa?la hme—ne f the trtises' favrite fds and an essential resurce fr the island's ther inhabitants. When the trtises eat the cactus's fallen leaves, they prevent them frm taking rt and cmpeting with their parents. And, after they eat the cactus's fruit, they drp the seeds acrss the island, ffering a prtective shell f fertilizer.
The extent f these and ther eclgical effects f the trtise are dcumented in a new study by James Gibbs, a cnservatin scientist f the giant trtise restratin prgram. The results, he says, are a gd sign fr ther rewilding prjects that include giant trtise restratin as a keystne f their effrts, such as thse underway n ther islands f the Galapags and the Mascarene Islands in the Indian Ocean.
8.What is a result f reintrducing the Galapags giant trtise t Espa?la?
A.Endangerment f ther species.
B.Restratin f the lcal ecsystem.
C.Decrease in giant trtises' ppulatin.
D.Transfrmatin f rewilding prjects.
9.Hw did the giant trtise influence the waved albatrss?
A.By reducing the extent f wdy plants.
B.By spreading the seeds f a key species.
C.By creating mre living habitats fr them.
D.By limiting the number f their cmpetitrs.
10.What is James Gibbs's attitude twards the giant trtise prject?
A.Unclear. B.Reserved.
C.Psitive. D.Dismissive.
11.What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A.Endangered Species Is Hard t Be Restred
