(物种), and each leaf is one kind of species. thanks to british scientist charles darwin, we are able to see this beautiful tree of evolution (进化).born in 1809, young darwin was heading for a medical career. later he found his love for the natural sciences. then in 1831 he took the ship hms beagle and set sail on a five-year scientific trip around the world.during the trip, darwin visited the galapagos islands, about 800 kilometers west of ecuador (厄瓜多尔), south america. the islands were home to many kinds of plants and animals. he noticed each island had a particular kind of bird, but they all looked a little different. it later helped his studies on evolution.on his return to england in 1836, he sat down to solve the puzzles he collected on the trip. he later came up with a theory (理论) of evolution. and after 20 years of hard work, in 1859, darwin released the life-changing book, on the origin of species (物种起源), a very important theory in evolution and natural selection (选择).few have changed the way we look at the world like darwin, who is still a superstar of science.31. what career did young darwin first want to have?a. doctor.b. sailor.c. writer.d. scientist.32. why did darwin visit the galapagos islands? a. because he went past south america. b. because the birds there were all the same. c. because he needed to finish the life-changing book. d. because there were many kinds of plants and animals.33. whatdid thewriterprobablythinkofdarwin?a. hesethimselfagoaltoohightoreach.b. hechanged the life of plants and animals.c. he showed us the way we look at the world.d. he made his work far too difficult to understand.34. what can be the best title for the passage? a. tree of evolution b. origin of speciesc. a scientific trip d. a superstar of science35. thepassageisprobablytaken from_. a.adetective story bookb.atour guidec.a teens newspaperd.anadvertisementdis your diet destroying the environment?a vegetarian diet is often praised for its health benefits. vegetarians usually have lower levels of heart disease, and studies have also shown that they have a lower risk of diabetes (糖尿病) than people who eat meat. however, most people dont realize that a vegetarian diet produces less pollution to the earth. researchers from the union of concerned scientists in the us recently studied how people affect the environment. the study showed that eating meat is one of the main ways that humans can change the environment, second only to the use of motor vehicle.then, how can eating meat have a negative effect on the environment? for a start, all farm animals such as cows, pigs, and sheep give off methane gas(沼气) by breathing. one cow can produce up to 60 liters of methane each day. methane gas is the second most common greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide. many environmental experts now believe that it is more responsible for global warming than carbon dioxide. it is estimated that 25% of all methane released into the air comes from farm animals. another way that meat production affects the environment is through the use of water and land. 2,500 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound of beef while only 20 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound of wheat. one acre of farmland used for crop production can produce 40, 000 pounds of potatoes, 30,000 pounds of carrots, or 50,000 pounds of tomatoes, however, one acre of farmland used for raising cows can produce just 250 pounds of beef. many people now see the benefits of a vegetarian diet, not just for health reasons, but also because it plays an important role in protecting the environment. however, some nutritionists advise against switching to a totally strict vegetarian, or vegan diet. they believe a vegan diet, which excludes(拒绝) all products from animal sources, such as cheese, eggs, and milk, can be short of many necessary vitamins and minerals our bodies need. today, many people know that it is important to take better care of their bodies, and to use the earths resources more efficiently. as this understanding spreads, more people may realize that to help the environment and for the human race to survive, more of us will need to become vegetarian.36. the underlined word “vegetarian” in the first paragraph most probably means _.a. a person who eats healthy food b. a person who eats meat and vegetables c. a person who only eats meat, fish and seafoodd. a person who only eats vegetables, grains, and fruit37. its _ for a vegetarian to have diabetes than a person who eats meat. a. more possible b. less possible c. highly possible d. impossible38. which of the statement is true according to the article?a. doctors suggest switching to totally vegetarian diets.b. it takes more water and land to produce a kilo of crops.c. farm animals give off methane gas and pollute the environment.d. carbon dioxide is more responsible for global warming than methane gas.39. the underlined “it” in paragraph 5 refers to _.a. a vegetarian diet b. animal source c. necessary vitamin d. health reason 40. the main idea of the article is that _.a. our diet is destroying the surroundingsb. raising farm animals affects the environmentc. a vegetarian diet helps to protect the environmentd. more and more people are becoming strict
