World Weatherlink.D. Space Exploration.BMore than five million different kinds of organisms(生物体) live on the Earth. For thousands of years, humans have searched for ways to organize this diversity. In the eighteenth century, a Swedish professor, physician, and naturalist named Carolus Linnaeus developed the system of naming and classifying organisms that we use today.Linnaeus contributed to the modern classification of organisms in two ways. He first developed a convention for naming life forms.Before Linnaeus came up with a standardized system of naming, there were often many names for a single species, and these names tended to be long and confusing. Linnaeus decided that all species names should be in Latin and should have two parts, one indicating the genus (plural: genera), a group that includes similar species and one indicating the specific name of the species. When written alone, the specific name is meaningless since many different species in different genera have the same specific name. The specific name familiaris, for example, is commonly used to describe species. Therefore, when used by itself, it would not describe any one organism. When the genus is also given, however, as in Canis familiaris, we know that the name refers to a specific organism: the domestic dog. Linnaeus was also the originator of modern taxonomy, a system of classifying nature based on hierarchical(分层的) groupings. Linnaeus first grouped life forms into three broad groups, called kingdoms. These kingdoms were animals, plants, and minerals. He divided each of these kingdoms into classes, classes into orders, orders into genera (genus is singular) and then genera into species, grouping organisms according to shared physical characteristics. Although modern taxonomists still use the hierarchical structure of Linnaeuss classification system as well as his method of grouping organisms according to observable similarities, they have added hierarchical levels and significantly changed Linnaeuss original groupings. The broadest level of life is now a domain. All living things fit into only three domains. Within each of these domains there are kingdoms. Each kingdom contains phyla (singular is phylum), followed by class, order, family, genus, and species.In addition to the Linnaean kingdoms of plants and animals, biologists recognize prokaryotes, protists, and fungi as separate kingdoms. The prokaryotes are the oldest and most abundant group of organisms. They are also the smallest cellular organisms. Common bacteria, which have been known to survive in many environments that support no other form of life, fall into this category. The protist kingdom is made up of a variety of single-celled or simple multi-cellular organisms. Protists do not have much in common. They are, essentially, those organisms which do not fit into any other kingdom. Fungi compose a third kingdom. Like plants, the cells of fungi have cell walls, giving them a tube-like structure. However, fungi do not produce their own carbon as plants do. Rather, they acquire nutrients by absorbing and digesting carbon produced by other organisms. Yeasts and mushrooms are examples of fungi. 58.The writer gives the scientific name of the domestic dog in paragraph 3 in order to _.A. demonstrate Linnaeuss method of classificationB. introduce the need for a better system of naming organismsC. criticize the complexity of Linnaeuss naming system D. illustrate the necessity of including two parts when naming organism59.Which of the following can be learned from the passage? _A. The hierarchical structure of Linnaeuss system for classifying is no longerin use.B. Linnaeuss original system of classification consisted of 3 domains.C. Linnaeuss original system of classification is used today with little modifications.D. Modern taxonomists have added categories and regrouped organisms.60. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage? _A. The Father of Modern Taxonomy B. Classifying OrganismsC. Development in Life Forms D. Linnaeuss Classification SystemCWhen a big boat, like a cruise ship, goes through the ocean, it often creates waves. This happens when the large engines on the back of the cruise ship cause the water on the oceans surface move up and down violently. These waves move out from the boat in both directions. If you are captaining a smaller boat, youd better steer clear of a ships wake, so that your boat is not surfing on the waves, causing it to overturn.A wave is a pattern of motion. When you look at a wave, it may appear as simply water moving across the surface of the ocean. In fact, this is false. The water is actually not moving in the same direction as the wave. While the wave itselfthe pattern of motionis moving across the surface of the ocean, the water is actually moving in a circular motion, which brings the water molecules back to their original position. The water merely gives the appearance of moving forward.If this is confusing, think of the kind of wave you do at a baseball stadium. Viewed from a distance, the wave is clearly moving across the stadium. But the thing that makes up the wavethe peopleare not moving across the stadium, theyre just moving up and down in their seats. This is just like the water in an ocean wave. A lot of water is moving up and down, which gives water the appearance of moving along with the wave.Surfers pay a lot of attention to waves. If youre not in an area where the waves are suitable for surfing, then you cant surf. Usually, surfers gather in areas known for big waveswaves that rise high off the oceans surface. If the wave is bigger, then the surfer is often able to surf for longer distances and perform more tricks. The height of a wave is known as its amplitude. If you could make a wave freeze, then you could measure the waves amplitude by running a tape measure from the oceans surface to the very peak of the wave.All waves can be measured using amplitude and wavelength. While the waves created by a boat have very small amplitudesometimes as small as a few centimetersthe wavelength can be very short, as lots of waves are being generated. By contrast, a tsunami has very high amplitude, sometimes more than 100 feet, but a relatively long wavelength, as its a high wave.Waves generated in the same way can have great differences in amplitude and wavelength. For example, think back to the cruise ship. While each ship creates waves caused by the movement of the boat, the properties of each of the waves may be very different. For example, a larger cruise ship, with powerful engines, may create a wave that has high amplitude and a short wavelength. However, if the ships engines slow down, they may then start creating less powerful waves at a slower rate. This would cause the waves amplitude to decrease, but its wavelength to increase.61. What does the phrase “steer clear of a cruise ships wake” in the 1st paragraph mean?A. Keeping awake while steering a ship. B. Getting a clear view of what is ahead.C. Following the cruise ship very closely. D. Keeping
