Although laws have been introduced to ban the selling of tusks, they have not been enough to save the elephants.But the giant animals have now “developed” their own solution to stay safe from hunters-by not growing tusks at all.Scientists found that among female African elephants, as many as 98 percent of them now have no tusks, reported The Independent newspaper. The number was 15 percent in 1998 and only 1 percent in 1930, according to the BBC.But this solution has less been developed by elephants themselves, and more by evolution.Evolution is all about natural selection（选择）. When an environment changes, for example, animals and plants that can deal with the change will stay alive while others wont. And for elephants, the change came when hunters started killing them for their tusks. As a result, elephants with big tusks couldnt stay alive because hunters wanted to shoot them. Those born with tusks managed to stay alive and give their “tuskless” genes（基因）to their babies. As a result, more and more elephants are now being born without tusks.But this solution, as effective（有效地）as it might be, is a high price to pay for elephants. Tusks are important and play a number of roles, especially for male elephants, including fighting with other males, lifting and digging things up.This is why scientists hope there can be other ways to protect elephants against hunters. They believe that when they are less likely to be killed, elephants will be able to grow tusks again.To David Cowdrey, head of Policy and Campaigns at the International Found for Animal Welfare UK, however, this is not very likely to happen in the near future.“Unfortunately, it comes down to the markets,” he told The Guardian. “As long as people will pay high prices for products that come from endangered animal and plants, theyre going to have price on them and that causes the hunting.”（1）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A . Elephants learned to lift and dig things up without tusks.B . Elephants chose not to grow tusks because of their dangerous environment.C . Elephants with no tusks had a greater chance of passing down their genes.D . A tuskless elephant gives birth to more baby elephants than an elephant with big tusks.（2）The underlined word “evolution” in paragraph 4 means “_” ? A . gradual changeB . sudden developmentC . complete lossD . rapid growth（3）What can you learn from the last two paragraphs? A . We should work out a better solution to protect elephants.B . People should pay lower prices for products made with elephant tusks.C . Elephants living environments will soon be improved.D . The key to elephant protection is stopping the trade in tusk products.四、 任务型阅读 (共2题；共30分)27. （5分）补全对话。从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。（其中有两项是多余的。）A: Welcome to I COOL, YOU COOL, madam.

She practiced over and over again, sometimes until it got dark. I asked her why she practiced so hard. She said, I like basketball. Im going to play for a top basketball team. I want to be the best.One day, I saw the girl sitting there, looking upset. I asked what was wrong. Oh, nothing, she answered. Im just too short.
