阅读理解与欣赏

阅读《水葫芦之灾》完成题目:

       水葫芦学名风眼蓝,别称水浮莲、假水仙等,原产于南美委内瑞拉,后传播到世界上60多个国家。水葫芦外表并不丑:它浑身碧透,绿得醉人,簇簇紫花绽放若热带兰,花瓣上偶尔可见黄、蓝斑点,作为盆景置于庭院,不比荷花逊色。  

       它生命力旺盛,在15℃~40℃的气温下,只要置于水中便能疯狂繁殖开来。每株分出多支匍匐茎,茎端再长出新株,八九天翻一番,90天内可以分出25万棵新株。但养分低。猪吃了饿不死也不长膘。  

       自上世纪60年代,水葫芦在国外已经声名狼藉,到处遭到斩杀。孟加拉人将引自德国的水葫芦称为“德国恶草”。南非的引自美国佛罗里达,人称“佛罗里达恶魔”。斯里兰卡的引自日本,被骂为“日本烦恼”。印度则称它为“紫色恶魔”。  

       水葫芦在各地抢占水面,影响航运,窒息鱼类,危害健康。泰国湄南河一发洪汛,一座座盘根错节的水葫芦“岛屿”浮游而下,猛冲桥洞直接威胁首都曼谷的安全。维多利亚湖是非洲的第一大湖。20世纪80年代水葫芦泛滥成灾,覆满湾口。一些船只夜泊开阔水面。夜间起风,一早起来就开不动了,四周被几万平方米的水葫芦团团包围。许多航线瘫痪。未经处理的各种废水排入湖中。湖水富营养化,水葫芦疯长成半人高的“森林”,致使鱼类死亡,湖水发臭。当年水产锐减,渔民失业。人们生活用水也发生困难,用湖水洗澡还会导致皮肤瘙痒。 

       深受水葫芦之害的各地都已向它宣战。南亚各国采用人工捞取、火焰喷射、药物喷杀、炸药爆破等手段加以销毁,可是过了三个月它依旧欣欣向荣。维多利亚湖畔人们采用生物防治法,在湖区放养吃水葫芦的象鼻虫,但以繁衍100亿只象鼻虫计算,起码也要日夜不停吃上20年,才能吃光水葫芦。象鼻虫吃水葫芦还可能酿成更严重的虫灾。  

上世纪60年代,我国曾将水葫芦当作度荒青饲料引入,后泛滥成灾,以闽台粤为甚。福建的水葫芦覆盖面积达300平方千米,盘踞了全省四分之一的湖塘库沟水域。目前,福建已打响了专项整治水葫芦的战役。  

 漂洋过海远道而来的水葫芦,竟然酿成了当今最大的绿色污染,这可是人们始料未及的啊!

1、给“水葫芦”一个形象的比喻,它还可以叫“       ”(文段中出现的除外),根据一、二段的内容,概括水葫芦的三个特点。(每一点不超过3个字)

2、人们为什么用“恶魔”一词称呼水葫芦?

______________________________________________________

3、读“20世纪80年代水葫芦泛滥成灾,覆满湾口。一些船只夜泊开阔水面。夜间起风,一早起来就开不动了,四周被几万平方米的水葫芦团团包围”等句,体会画线的词语在文中说明的作用。

______________________________________________________

4、文章多处运用“列数据”的说明方法,请举出一例,并说明作用。

     例如:                                                                                        

     作用:                                                                                        

5、“绿色污染”已经成为当今世界性的难题。请结合文章内容与下列材料,说说你对绿色污染的理解。 资料一:上世纪20年代,来自美洲的仙人掌盘踞了澳大利亚昆士兰州的24万平方千米的土地,与农作物、牧草争地,致使畜牧业的发展严重受挫。 

资料二:来自非洲的葛藤,上世纪70年代一度占领了美国南部283公顷的土地,挤占公路,给农业、交通业造成巨大的损失。
