Thats the sound made by frogs singing at night. You might have thought the noises were just the musical sounds of ure. You probably didnt realize that you were listening to frogs communicating with one another. These familiar sounds are not random(随意的) but are actually meaningful to frogs.Being Heard but Not SeenFrogs are good at being heard but not seen. These animals have several characters that protect them n predators (捕食者 ). One is their size. Most frogs are small, which helps them hide easily. Many frogs have coloring that allows them to hide in their environment, making it difficult for predators to find them. In addition, most frogs are active at night. So it is difficult for most animals to see them in the dark.Small but LoudFrogs call to tell other frogs where they are. Their voices can be very loud. But when frogs feel the footsteps of a larger animal, they become silent.Many of the worlds frogs live in rain forests, where there are many different animals calling to their own species (物种 ) in their own ways. Frogs need to call loudly enough to be heard through the noise in order to find other frogs.Singing with PurposePeter Narins is a scientist who studies how frogs call to one another. He has learned that frogs use their calls to help them tell friend from enemy. They sing the same notes at the same volume (音量 ) each time they call. In addition, Narins has found that frogs of the same species always sing the same patterns (模式 ). These patterns are like a code that is different from other animals calls and difficult for others to copy. Narins also observed that timing plays a role in frog calls. Many frogs call only at a certain time of night.More Work to DoScientists want to better understand the purpose of frog calls. Studies continue to explore the details of frogs unique communication. Being heard but not seen is one way frogs stay safe. The idea that they have found a way to survive in a dangerous world is simply amazing.（1）Frogs are good at being heard but not seen because . A . they can not jump highB . they can hide easilyC . they are not active enoughD . they have bright colors（2）Frogs need to call loudly to . A . drive away other speciesB . tell friend from enemy quicklyC . be heard by other frogsD . feel the footsteps of a larger animal（3）What can we learn from the passage? A . Frogs always sing the same notes at different volumes.B . Frogs stay safe in a dangerous world only by their calls.C . Some frogs call accidentally at different times of night.D . Some details of frogs communication still leave unknown.（4）Which is probably the best title of the passage? A . Frog SongsB . Life of FrogsC . Frog SecretsD . World of Frogs4. （10分）阅读理解It is most difficult for parents to decide whether to have a second child or not. It is often heard that a single child is likely to be a lonely child. There are no other children in the family for the child to talk to or play with. An only child is not able to get along well with children of his age. Some parents feel sad about making the decisions to have only one child.But the number of parents choosing to have only one child is increasing in many parts of the world. In the US, for example, more than14 percent of women between 18 and 34 plan to have just one child . The same can be seen in the UK. In Japan, the average(平均) number of children born per family had gone down to 1.42 by 1996. For some single-child parents, especially who are busy working every day, time and energy seem to be overwhelming. They dont have enough time and energy to share with more children. For other people, money is their first consideration. Many couples in Japan choose not to have large families as the cost of supporting a child up to the age of 18 reaches around $160,000.（1）According to the passage, why is a single child likely to be lonely?A . Because his parents dont love him.B . Because he doesnt have holidays.C . Because he doesnt have a brother or a sister to talk to or play with.D .
