schaller designed the suit, which covered pierres body and had small openings for his flippers.“i would walk behind him and look at where there were any gaps, and cut and refit and cut and refit until it looked like it was extremely suitable,” she said.one concern was that the other penguins would reject pierre in his new suit, but in fact, they accepted his new look. he swam freely and got along with others well, although he was the only penguin with a black stomach.schaller couldnt say for sure whether the wet suit allowed pierre to recover his fine feathers, but “certainly we were able to keep him comfortable during a period of time that would have been very difficult for him to stay comfortable”.pierre will take off his suit after his new feathers grow back. 56. pierre felt too cold to swim in the pool because of .a. not having a layer of blubber b. having few feathers due to old agec. having no wet suit d. others penguins rejecting him57. the idea of making a wet suit for pierre came from .a. total invention b. the use of wet suit on humansc. the use of heat lamp d. waterproof feathers58. schaller followed pierre in order to see .a. whether other penguins would reject him b. if anywhere of wet suit needed to be cut and refitc. if the wet suit kept warm d. whether the wet suit would keep the feathers from recovering59. what does the underlined word in the second paragraph mean?a. feeling scared. b. staying alone. c. shaking with cold. d. keeping warm.60. the best title of the passage is . a. wet suit for an old penguin b. old penguin getting baldc. unwilling to swim d. strange look of pierrebthe african elephant, the largest land animal remaining on the earth, is of great importance to african ecosystem(生态系统). unlike other animals, the african elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment. as a big plant-eater, it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原) surroundings in which it lives, therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat. it is the elephants great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. in its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. this results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the african savannas(热带草原). in these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other plant-eaters. take the rain forests for example. in their natural state, the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. by pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants make open spaces, allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor. in such situations, the forests become suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well. what worries scientists now is that the african elephant has become an endangered species. if the elephant disappears, scientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem. 61. what is the passage mainly about? a. disappearance of african elephants. b. forests and savannas as habitats for african elephants. c. the effect of african elephants search for food. d. the eating habit of african elephants.62. what does the underlined phrase “setting the terms” most probably mean? a. fixing the time. b. worsening the state. c. improving the quality. d. deciding the conditions. 63. what do we know about the open spaces in the passage? a. they result from the destruction of rain forests. b. they provide food mainly for african elephants. c. they are home to many endangered animals. d. they are attractive to plant-eating animals of different kinds.64. according to the passage, which of the following statements is true?a. the african elephant is the largest animal on the earth.b. african elephants have 300 pounds of plants every day, including small trees and underbushes.c. the african elephant is in a way the builder of the environment like other land animals.d. if the african elephant disappears, the whole ecosystem wont be affected.65. the passage is developed mainly by . a. showing the effect and then explaining the causes b. pointing out similarities and differences c. describing the changes in space order d. giving examplesc science and society young people need to understand how our society depends upon scientific and technological advancement and to realize that science is a basic part of modern living. the scientific process and the knowledge produced cannot be considered to be ends in themselves, except for the classical scientist. a student should understand the relation of basic research to applied research, and the connection between technological developments and human affairs. more of technology than science will be involved in social decisions, but both are important in public policy. the knowledge and methods of science are of little importance if there is no inclination to use them properly . an open mind, a desire for accurate knowledge, confidence in the procedures for seeking knowledge, and the expectation that the solution of problems will come from the use of tested and proven knowledge these are among the “scientific attitudes”. science instruction should acquaint students with career possibilities in technical fields and in science teaching. a continuous effort should be made to identify and encourage those who develop special interests. they should be given opportunities for some direct experience of a professional nature； they should also learn about the extent of the various science fields and how these fields are related to each other. but it is even more important for young people to acquire those skills and abilities that will enable them to take the responsibilities for expanding their own learning.66. according to the first paragraph, the young people must a. devote themselves for science b. devote themselves for the socialism c. understand and realize that science is a basic part of modern living d. be well-educated and to get more knowledge for our construction67. the word “ends” (para. 1)most probably means a. purpose b. results c. advances d. conclusions68. which of the following statements is true according to the passage? a. both technology and science are important in social decisions. b. technology is more important than science in social decisions. c. science is more important than technology in social decisions. d. the knowledge and method of science are more important than those of technology.69. which of the following is not a factor of “scientific attitudes”? a. an open mind. b. accurate knowledge. c. confidence in the process for seeking knowledge. d. the expectation that the solution of problems will come from.70. according to the passage, it is more important for young people to a. develop special interests in technical fields b. get more opportunities /or broadening their knowledge c. take the responsibilities for broadening their knowledge d. acquire the skills and abilities for broading their knowledgebthere are robots all around us. some do very complicated jobs like flying airplanes and driving subway trains. and some do one simple job. when an automatic washing machine is switched on, water pours in. the machine waits until the water is warm enough for washing clothes. it does this by “feedback” (反馈). information about what is happening is feed back into the robot to tell what to do next. our eyes, ears and other senses are our feedback. they tell us what is going on around us. so robots are like human beings in two ways.they work and they have feedback.in some ways robots are better than human beings. they work quickly and do not make mistakes. they do not get bored doing the same job over and over again. and they never get tired. so robots are very useful in factories. they can be taught to do many different jobs. first their electronic brain must be shown how the job is done. a person moves the robots “arms” and “hands” through each part of the job.the most intelligent robots can move and see. their eyes are cameras. their fingers can feel shapes and sizes of the objects. these robots have computer brains linked to their eyes and fingers, which control their actions. the expensive “times new roman” - the most intelligent robots are used in scientific research. they do such job as handling radioactive materials.71. in this passage the author tells us that_. a. robots are very popular b. there are various kinds of robotsc. we see robots only at certain times d. robots can be easily controlled72. what does the author seem to inform you about robots? a. they should be greatly improved. b. they will probably take over in the future.c. they are very helpful and useful to humans. d. they are machines that break down a lot.73. the fact that a robot never gets bored doing the same job means that_.a. it is very much like human beings b. it can do boring jobs for peoplec. it will never bore people d. it will work much better than human beings74. the robots used for scientific research_. a. are not very clever b. are very cheapc. are very big d. are very costly75. according to the passage, which of the following statements is true? a. in most ways robots are better than human beings. b. robots have eyes, so they can see.c. scientists sometimes do scientific research by using the intelligent robots. d. robots can work but they have no feedback.vi. 书面表达i任务型阅读（10分）1global difference in intelligence is a sensitive topic, long filled with a large number of different opinions. but recent data has indeed shown cognitive (认知的) ability to be higher in some countries than in others. whats more, iq scores have risen as nations developa phenomenon known as the flynn effect. many causes have been put forward for both the intelligence difference and the flynn effect, including education, income, and even non-agricultural labor. now, a new study from researchers at the university of new mexico offers another interesting theory: intelligence may be linked to infectious-disease rates.2the brain, say author christopher eppig and his colleagues, is the most costly organ in
