3、swer from the four choices marked a), b), c) and d). for question 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage. animals on the move it looked like a scene from “jaws” but without the dramatic music. a huge shark was lowly swimming through the water, its tail swinging back a
4、nd forth like the pendulum of a clock.suddenly sensitive nerve ending in the sharks skin picked up vibrations of a struggling fish. the shark was immediately transformed into a deadly, efficient machine of death. with muscles taut, the shark knifed through the water at a rapid speed. in a flash the
5、shark caught its victim, a large fish, in its powerful jaws. then, jerking its head back and forth, the shark tore huge chunks of flesh from its victim and swallowed them. soon the action was over.moving to survivein pursuing its prey, the shark demonstrated in a dramatic way the important role of m
6、ovement, or locomotion, in animals.like the shark, most animals use movement to find food. they also use locomotion to escape enemies, find a mate, and explore new territories. the methods of locomotion include crawling, hopping, slithering, flying, swimming, or walking.humans have the added advanta
7、ge of using their various inventions to move about in just about any kind of environment. automobiles, rockets, and submarines transport humans from deep oceans to as far away as the moon. however, for other animals movement came about naturally through millions of years of evolution. one of the mos
8、t successful examples of animal locomotion is that of the shark. its ability to quickly zero in on its prey has always impressed scientists. but it took a detailed study by duke university marine biologists s. a. wainwright, f. vosburgh, and j. h. hebrank to find out how the sharks did it. in their
9、study the scientists observed sharks swimming in a tank at marine land in saint augustine, fla. movies were taken of the sharks movements and analyzed. studies were also made of shark skin and muscle.skin is the keythe biologists discovered that the skin of the shark is the key to the animals high e
10、fficiency in swimming through the water. the skin contains many fibers that crisscross like the inside of a belted radial tire. the fibers are called collagen fibers. these fibers can either store or release large amounts of energy depending on whether the fibers are relaxed or taut. when the fibers
11、 are stretched, energy is stored in them the way energy is stored in the string of a bow when pulled tight. when the energy is released, the fibers become relaxed.the duke university biologists have found that the greatest stretching occurs where the shark bends its body while swimming. during the b
12、odys back and forth motion, fibers along the outside part of the bending body stretch greatly. much potential energy is stored in the fibers. this energy is released when the sharks body snaps back the other way.as energy is alternately stored and released on both sides of the animals body, the tail
13、 whips strongly back and forth. this whip-like action propels the animal through the water like a living bullet.source of energywhat causes the fibers to store so much energy? in finding the answer the duke university scientists learned that the sharks similarity to a belted radial tire doesnt stop
14、with the skin. just as a radial tire is inflated by pressure, so, too, is the area just under the sharks collagen “radials”. instead of air pressure, however, the pressure in the shark may be due to the force of the blood pressing on the collagen fibers.when the shark swims slowly, the pressure on t
15、he fibers is relatively low. the fibers are more relaxed, and the shark is able to bend its body at sharp angles. the animal swims this way when looking around for food or just swimming. however, when the shark detects an important food source, some fantastic involuntary changes take place.the press
16、ure inside the animal may increase by 10 times. this pressure change greatly stretches the fibers, enabling much energy to be stored.this energy is then transferred to the tail, and the shark is off. the rest of the story is predictable.dolphin has speed recordanother fast marine animal is the dolph
17、in. this seagoing mammal has been clocked at speeds of 32 kilometers (20 miles) an hour. biologists studying the dolphin have discovered that, like the shark, the animals efficient locomotion can be traced to its skin. a dolphins skin is made up in such a way that it offers very little resistance to
18、 the water flowing over it. normally when a fish or other object moves slowly through the water, the water flows smoothly past the body. this smooth flow is known as laminar flow. however, at faster speeds the water becomes more turbulent along the moving fish. this turbulence muses friction and slo
19、ws the fish down.in a dolphin the skin is so flexible that it bends and yields to the waviness of the water.the waves, in effect, become tucked into the skins folds. this allows the rest of the water to move smoothly by in a laminar flow. where other animals would be slowed by turbulent water at rap
20、id speeds, the dolphin can race through the water at record breaking speeds.other animals less efficientnot all animals move as efficiently as sharks and dolphins. perhaps the greatest loser in locomotion efficiency is the slug. the slug, which looks like a snail without a shell, lays down a slimy t
21、rail over which it crawls. it uses so much energy producing the slimy mucus and crawling over it that a mouse traveling the same distance uses only one twelfth as much energy.scientists say that because of the slugs inefficient use of energy, its lifestyle must be restricted. that is, the animals ar
