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.19. （20分）Are you a happy person most of the time? Or do you easily get angry sometimes? Everyone has a different temperament (脾气). It is usually believed that both genes (基因) and environment may affect peoples temperaments in different ways. But now scientists have found that the season of birth also plays a role.Scientists from Budapest, Hungary, studied 400 university students. In the study, the students needed to finish a questionnaire (问卷). The purpose of it was to find out which of four kinds of temperaments they most had. From the questionnaire, scientists found that the students always answered something like My mood often changes for no reason and I love to deal with new projects, even if it is risky. These answers were then matched with their birthdays.They discovered that people born in summer easily change between sad and happy moods compared to people born in winter. Those who always feel positive are mostly born in spring and summer.The study also found that those born in autumn less probably had a mood of depression which may easily drive them to cry, while those born in winter were not easier to be angry.Scientists said that this was probably because the seasons had an influence on certain chemicals in the human body. And the chemicals are important to control peoples moods even in adult life._It seems that when you are born may increase or decrease your chance of developing certain mood disorders (紊乱), lead scientist Xenia Gonda told The Telegraph.（1）What probably cant affect peoples temperaments according to Paragraph 1?A .
