四、阅读理解
There's an unwritten rule among documentary film-makers — to watch,but not to intervene(干涉). But a BBC documentary worker in Antarctica(南极洲)made a hard decision to intervene when several emperor penguin(帝企鹅)mothers and their babies became trapped in a ravine(深沟).
In one of the Dynasties series,mother penguins can be seen leaving babies behind when they can't get out from the ravine. Some babies died from the freezing low temperatures.
After a storm,the workers returned to the area and decided to do something. In the beginning,they are not sure about the proper way to help with the least intervention. Finally,they built a ramp(斜坡)to help the remaining penguins climb to safety.
"We chose to intervene with the least influence," said the show's director,Will Lawson. "Once we'd dug that little ramp,which took very little time,we left it to the birds. We were excited when they decided to use it."
The show's creator,Sir David Attenborough,is known for his strong support to let nature take its course. But in this case,he said he would have intervened.
"It's very rare for the film workers to intervene," he said. "But they realize that they might be able to save some of these birds simply by digging a few steps in the ice."
"It's such an unusual condition to do this," he added. "It wasn't dangerous. You weren't touching the animals and by doing this,they had the chance to get out of the trouble."
Although different people hold different views,the workers have received more praise from the public for what they did.

答案：【解析】：
这是一道英语阅读理解题，主要考查学生对文章内容的理解和分析能力。题目给出了一个关于南极洲帝企鹅的纪录片制作过程中的一个插曲，描述了纪录片制作人员在面对帝企鹅困境时的选择和行动。接下来是四个阅读理解问题，需要学生根据文章内容选择正确答案。
1. 第一题是细节理解题，需要学生找到描述帝企鹅遇到的困难的具体内容。根据文章第一段，可以明确看到“several emperor penguin mothers and their babies became trapped in a ravine”，即帝企鹅妈妈和它们的宝宝被困在了一个深沟里。
2. 第二题是排序题，需要学生根据文章内容将事件按照发生的顺序进行排序。通过仔细阅读文章，可以发现母亲企鹅抛弃宝宝（④），一些宝宝死于低温（②），工作人员决定干预（①），工作人员挖了一个斜坡（③）这个顺序是符合文章描述的。
3. 第三题是代词指代题，需要学生确定“this”在文章中的具体指代内容。根据文章第七段，“they might be able to save some of these birds simply by digging a few steps in the ice”，这里的“this”指的就是在冰上挖一些台阶的行为。
4. 第四题是主旨大意题，需要学生从文章中提炼出主要的信息或道理。文章主要描述了纪录片制作人员在面对帝企鹅困境时，虽然通常有“只观察，不干预”的规定，但他们还是选择了干预，以拯救企鹅。这反映了人们在某些情况下需要打破规则来做正确的事情。
