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 Frogs23. （10分）阅读理解You may have noticed that the worlds population is not evenly distributed (分散式的) around our planet. There are some countries where people seem to be living nearly on top of each other because conditions are overcrowded. Then there are others where it seems that hardly anybody lives. What influences this unequal distribution of people? There are specific advantages and disadvantages of living in a certain area.The two main factors that influence peoples choice of location are climate and resources. Climate is the usual weather conditions in a region. Areas that have bad weather are generally less deal as places to live in. The north and south poles at the top and bottom of the world may be beautiful in their rugged, natural way, but the disadvantage of the bitterly cold and windy conditions usually keeps people away. When it comes to climate, warm conditions and a normal amount of rainfall are advantage that attract people.Natural resources are things that we get from nature and that help us survive. Each region offers different resources, and therefore attracts different groups of people. People who enjoy the beach can make their living by catching and selling the oceans many fish and other sea creatures. Those who prefer farming can take advantage of rich soil (土壤) in valleys near rivers. Some people are willing to accept the disadvantages of the terrible conditions of deserts or mountains in order to take advantage of the resources like oil or woods. （1）The underlined part on top of in the first paragraph most likely means _. A . very close toB . on the highest part ofC . in control ofD . on the surface of（2）What are the main factors that influence the distribution of people? A . Resources and oceans.B . Climate and rivers.C . Climate and resources.D . Warm conditions and rainfall.（3）The writer thinks many people dont live near the north or south pole because _. A . they cant get enough food thereB . they natural sights there dont attract peopleC . the unpleasant weather keeps them awayD . the length of nighttime is too short or too long（4）Why do people go and live in valleys near rivers? A . The temperature isnt too low in winter.B . the resources like oil can bring them much money.C . People can make their living by catching and selling fish.D . Its easier for people to grow plants or keep animals.（5）The purpose of the example in the last paragraph is to tell us _. A . people cannot survive in cold conditionsB . different resource attract different groups of peopleC . People usually prefer living at the seaside to living in mountainsD . a normal amount of rainfall is necessary for people to live in the desert24. （18分）根据短文内容回答下列问题。Its March, 2050.Frank and Mary Smith wake up in their comfortable house in the morning and switch on the bedroom computer to get the latest news.They used to read the Times, but changed to electronic newspapers many years ago.There is the usual news about space: another space flight has returned from Mars and scientists have discovered a new planet.
