【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了美国黄石公园重新引进灰狼的事情。
人类活动的影响使灰狼的数量逐渐减少,鹿群数量逐渐增加,从而导致植被被大量破坏。
28.D【解析】主旨大意题。
文章开门见山地提出黄石公园引进灰狼的举措,然后在下文中详细介绍其原因以及带来的良好的转机,由此判断本文的中心话题是美国黄石公园对灰狼的引进。
30.A【解析】推理判断题。
根据第三段的内容可知,灰狼的减少造成了鹿群的增多,从而植被遭到了破坏;造成了土狼数量的快速增长,它们猎杀了大量的赤狐,赶走了海狸,由此可推断出灰狼的消失导致了当地生态平衡被破坏。

31.B【解析】推理判断题。
根据文章末段的最后一句可知,作者认为引进灰狼的项目是很有价值的实验,因此可推知作者对这一举措持肯定的态度。
