Blennies (鲇鱼) in the South Pacific Ocean are gradually relocating to land to esca

11、pe their predators (捕食者), in an example of evolution in action.Fish first began crawling onto dry land about 400 million years ago, kicking off an evolutionary chain of events that led to humans. But their reasons for exiting the sea have been uncertain.To look for clues, Terry Ord at the University

12、 of New South Wales in Australia has been studying several species of blennies at Rarotonga, the largest of the Cook Islands.At low tide, blennies are commonly found swimming in rock pools around the edges of the island. But when high tide moves in, they climb up to dry land and move around the rock

13、s until the tide retreats.The researchers found that this is most likely to avoid predators that swim in with the rising tide mainly bigger fish like lionfish.To test what would happen if blennies did not have an escape plan, they made blenny models and sank them in the sea. The mimics ended up with

14、 wounds, bite marks and chunks-missing.Of course, there are still dangers for blennies on land, like the occasional bird attack, but the predation risk on land is a third that of underwater.Whats more, moving onto land has additional benefits for blennies. Holes in the rocks provide sheltered nests

15、for laying eggs, and they can maintain their diet of bacteria.In fact, several species of blenny fish at Rarotonga have already made the full transition to land-dwelling (陆生的) species. They continue to breathe with their gills, but have developed stronger tail fins and jump from rock to rock.Ord bel

16、ieves that many evolutionary processes have been driven by the need to escape predators. “It is often assumed that animals move homes to find new sources of food, but in many cases, escaping predators is a stronger motivation.” he says.1、Why do blennies climb to dry land when high tide comes?ATo acq

17、uire better health. BTo search for more food.CTo seek safer living conditions. DTo adapt to a new environment.2、What does the underlined part “The mimics” in Paragraph 6 refer to?AThe rocks in the water. BThe predators of blennies.CThe researchers of blennies. DThe models of blennies.3、What can be c

20、ings(扣人心弦）in a way while other cries dont, researchers found.Researchers found that a babys cry can trigger unique emotional responses in the brain, making it impossible for us to ignore themwhether we are parents or not. Other types of cries, including calls of animals in great pain, fail to get th

The response was seen in both men and womeneven if they had no children.Researcher Dr Christine Parsons said, “You might read that men should just notice a baby and step over it and not see it, but its not tr

There is a special processing in men and women, which makes sense from an evolutionary(演化的）view that both men and women would be responding to these cries.” The study was in people who were not parents, yet they are all responding at 100ms to these particular cries, so this might be a fundamenta

24、l response present in all of us regardless of parental status.Fellow researcher Katie Young said it may take a bit longer for someone to recognize their own childs cries because they need to do more “fine-grained analysis”.

44、e vast majority to be first-born sons. This led him to theorise that first-born children enjoyed a special level of attention from their parents that allowed them to advance intellectually. Half a century later Alfred Adler, an Austrian psychologist, made a similar argument relating to personality.

45、First-born children, he suggested, were more diligent, while the later-born were more outgoing and emotionally stable. Many subsequent studies have explored these ideas, but their findings have been varied - some supporting and some rejecting the original conclusions.The main problem with the previo

46、us studies is that they were too small - often limited to a few dozen individuals. This would be true even if the statistical methods needed to analyse the data were simple, but they are not. Distinguishing birth-order effects from those caused by family size complicates matters, meaning still bigge

47、r samples must be analysed to obtain meaningful results.To overcome the limitation of these earlier studies, German social scientist Dr. Helmet Schmukle and his colleagues analysed three huge sets of data from America, Britain and Germany. These data sets, though collected for other purposes, includ

48、ed personality and intelligence tests on 20, 186 people at different stages of their lives. The American tests were on individuals aged between 29 and 35. The British tests were conducted on 50-year-olds. The German tests ran the whole span of adult life, from 18 to 98.Birth order, they found, had n

49、o effect on personality: first-borns were no more, nor less, likely than their younger siblings to be hardworking, outgoing or anxious. But it did affect intelligence. In a family with two children, the first child was more intelligent than the second 60% of the time, rather than the 50% that would

50、be expected by chance. On average, this translated to a difference of 1.5 IQ points between first and second siblings. That figure agrees with previous studies, and thus looks confirmed.It is, nevertheless, quite a small difference - and whether it is enough to account for Galtons original observati

51、on is unclear. In any event, it is certainly not deterministic. Galton was the youngest of nine.1、Alfred Adler concluded that first-born children were _.Amore stableBmore sociableCmore intelligentDmore hardworking2、What does the underlined “they” in paragraph 2 refer to?AThe data.BThe analyses.CThe

52、previous studies.DThe statistical methods.3、Why was Schmukles study considered superior to previous research?AIt involved a wider age range.BIt had a much larger sample size.CIt included a larger number of countries.DIt was conducted over a longer period of time.4、Why does the author mention Galtons

53、 family background in the last paragraph?ATo confirm Galtons difficult upbringing.BTo suggest Galtons theory may not be correct.CTo compare his experience with Galtons parents.DTo explain why Galton was interested in birth order.第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白
