【答案】1.B2.C3.B4.A5.B

【解析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了皮划艇是一项非常环保的运动，几乎不会对水里的鱼类造成任何伤害，同时指出玩皮划艇时要不要往水里扔垃圾。

1.细节理解题。

根据第一段中的“Kayakingalsoseemsrelativelyfriendlytotheenvironment;moresothanspeedboatingorwaterskiing.”可知，皮划艇比滑水更环保，故B项正确。

2.代词指代题。

根据画线词前的“Thiscouldcausetheanimalstochokeontheindigestiblelitter,leadingtodeath.”可知，这会导致那些水生动物被难以消化的垃圾噎住，导致死亡，由此可知画线词指的就是水生动物因吃了垃圾而窒息致死，故C项正确。

3.推理判断题。

根据空格后的“Andbecausekayaksdonothaveamotor,fishhavenoriskofgettingcaughtunderneaththeboat.”可知，而且因为皮划艇没有马达，鱼类在船底被抓住的风险就很小，此处应该会提到皮划艇对鱼类的另一个好处，B项（与由发动机和燃料驱动的船不同，皮划艇对水里游动的鱼类几乎不会造成任何伤害）正好符合语境，故B项正确。

4.主旨大意题。

根据文章内容，特别是第一段中的“Kayakingalsoseemsrelativelyfriendlytotheenvironment”可知，本文主要介绍了皮划艇是一项非常环保的运动，标题应体现出皮划艇对环境的影响，故A项正确。

5.词义猜测题。

根据本空后的“itcanbeharmfulwhenswallowedbyfish.”可知，虽然人类排泄物被认为是无害的，但被鱼类吞食却是有害的，由此可知画线词词义为“无害的”，故B项正确。

8.细节理解题。

根据文章第八段“Aftercollege,shehopestoworkinthesportsindustryasagraphicdesignerormarketer.（学毕业后，她希望在体育行业做平面设计师或营销人员。

根据文章最后一段“Whereverhercareertakesher,Maliawillalwaysberememberasanindividualwhobrokeboundaries.（无论她的职业生涯带着她走到哪里，玛利亚都会因为一个打破界限的人而被永远记住。
