专题检测卷(二十三)阅读理解（建议用时：25分钟）A体裁科普文题材地球变暖词数381Move Earth—It’s Not Science FictionLONDON—Scientists have found an unusual way toprevent our planet from overheating: move it to a cooler spot.All you have to do is send a few comets(彗星)in the directionof Earth, and its orbit will be changed. Our world will then be sent spinning into a safer, colder part of the solar system.This idea for improving our climate comes from a group of US National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA)engineers and American astronomers. They say their plan could add another six billion years to the useful lifetime of our planet—effectively doubling its working life.The plan put forward by Dr. Laughlin, and his colleagues Don Korycansky and Fred Adams, needs carefully directing a comet or asteroid so that it passes c lose by our planet and sends some of its gravitationalenergy to Earth.t and we would move “Earth’s orbital speed would increase as a resulto a higher orbit away from the Sun, ”Laughlin said.Engineers would then direct their comet so that it passed close to Jupiter or Saturn. The comet would pick up energy from one of these giant planets. Later its orbit would bring it back to Earth, and the process would be repeated.In the short term, the plan provides an ideal way to global warming, although the team was actually concerned with a much greater danger. The Sun is certain to heat up in about a billion years and so“seriou sly compromise” our biosphere(生物圈)—by cooking us..That’s why the group decided to try to save EarthThe plan has one or two worrying aspects, however. For a start, space engineers would have to be very careful about how they directed their asteroid or comet towards Earth. The smallest miscalculation(误算)in orbit could fire it straight at Earth—with deadly consequences.There is also the question of the Moon. As the current issue of Scientific American magazine points out, if Earth was pushed out of its current position, it is“most likely the Moon would be stripped away from.. This would greatly change our planet’s climateEarth”1. What makes the scientists plan to move Earth?A. A few comets are moving to the direction of Earth.e is coming to an end soon.B. Earth’s working lifC. Earth will become too hot for mankind to keep alive.D. The moon is moving farther and farther away from Earth.2. If the plan is successful, Earth will have a working life of years.A. 12 billionB. 6 billionC. 18 billionD. 24 billion3. What serious problems might the plan cause according to the passage?A. The comet might hit Earth and man might lose the Moon.B. Earth might be moved too far away and man might be frozen to death.C. The comet might hit Jupiter or Saturn and never return to Earth..D. Earth’s working life might be greatly shortened?4. What does the underlined word“compromise”meanA. Provide.B. Benefit.C. Share.D. Endanger.B(2013·扬州模拟) 体裁记叙文题材梅西介绍词数378Every time Lionel Messi breaks a record, it seems appropriate to compare him to the legends that came beforehim.In 2012, he rewrote soccer history on multiple occasions,and his latest record came when he scored his 86th goal of the calendar, before wrapping up the yearyear, breaking Gerd Muller’s previous markwith 91 goals.All statistics indicate that Messi is currently the best player in the world, and that he will go down in history as the top footballer of his generation. But when he is judged against all-time greats like Pele andDiego Maradona, he still has work to do.We don’t know whether the Barcelona striker will have another year in which he records more than 90 goals, but he must still sustain(维持)a similar level of production for the next several seasons.victorious Messi has already taken part in three of Barcelona’sChampions League(冠军联赛)campaigns, and he played an important rolein two of them. In order to firmly establish himself as the greatest club football player in history, he must win the tournament a few more times.Most importantly, the Argentine(阿根廷人)needs to win on the international stage. Regardless of what Messi does for Barcelona, his legacy will be incomplete if he cannot win the World Cup with Argentina.Both Pele and Maradona led their countries to the top of international soccer during their careers, a nd Messi’s performances for his country have been severely disappointing.While he was still a teenager in 2006-and his lackluster(平淡的)showing is excusable due to his youth-he cannot brush off the. disappointment that characterized Argentina’s performance in 2010But the 4-0 loss to Germany in the 2010 World Cup Quarter Finalseems to have sparked Messi. He scored 12 times for Argentina last year,and the next World Cup could finally be Messi’s breakout performance in blue and white stripes.Due to all of his accomplishments, it is easy to forget that the extraordinary footballer is just 25 years old. If he can avoid injury orlengthy slumps(低潮状态)until his speed and skills start to decline due toage, he may continue to break records and win trophies.5. What will Messi have to do in order to be complete in his soccer career?A. He must win the World Cup with Argentina.B. He must win the tournament a few more times.C. He must defeat Pele and Maradona.D. He must avoid injury or lengthy slumps.?6. How was Messi’s performance in 2010 World CupA. Excellent.B. Inspiring.C. Disappointing.D. Normal.7. What can we infer from the passage?A. Messi has firmly established himself as the greatest club soccer player inhistory.B. Messi will try his best to win the next World Cup with Argentina.C. Messi can avoid injury and lengthy slumps to break records and win trophies.D. Pele and Maradona led their countries to the top of international soccer during their careers.8. What is the best title of the passage?A. Lionel Messi, the Best Soccer Player of All TimeB. Lionel Messi, the Greatest Soccer Player in HistoryC. Barcelona and Lionel MessiD.

Have you ever wondered: What drives successful people? Take a look around and talk to your friends and seniors who are very successful, you will see all of them have adopted certain values which have proved vital for their success.It is evident that successful people take initiative(主动性). When they find something needs to be done, they just do it instead of waiting. They believe that responsibility is taken, not given. They weigh immediately what has to be done and then do it with pleasure, thus strengthening their reputation.Successful people are enthusiastic about the things they do, especially when they believe in what they are doing. They are motivated by their own satisfaction and the joy they get from doing their work. They work hardeven when no one is watching and they throw themselves into their work.They do not fear failure. Failures and disappointments in life are unavoidable. It is failure that teaches us much more than success. Successful people pick themselves up after a fall and try again with more determination and commitment and learn from each failure. They associate with those they can learn from and enjoy the company of those who appreciate their achievement.Having good IQ often gets a person what he wants but it’s really the EQ that keeps him there and helps him enjoy a high reputation. Successful people are polite to everyone and treat others with respect. By giving respect to others, they command respect for themselves.Another important quality of successful persons is that they never complain. It’s better to praise others and win favor with them. So instead of complaining about a situation, successful people always try to solve it.To put it shortly, take initiative and be enthusiastic about them. Do not be afraid to fail, but get up and start again. When you do so, success will be just around the corner.2(2013·合肥模拟) 阅读下面短文, 根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

阅读理解（建议用时：25分钟）A体裁说明文题材机器人的应用词数382 IMAGINE that your parents have bought you the most advanced robot.He looks like a real person. He talks to you and plays with you. Hecan even think for himself and figure out what you need.It may feel as if you have a considerate new brother who keeps youcompany all the time. But come to think of it, can you really trust him?Ever since the first robot was created decades ago, scientists have obsessed(迷恋)over the task of making robots more like humans. However, as they have gotten closer to that goal, doubts have grown. According to the BBC, Japanese robot designer Masahiro Mori argues that the more lifelike robots become, the more humans feel a connection to them. But once they become too similar to humans, people begin to feel uncomfortable.This theory is what led to the creation of a brand new robot in Switzerland earlier this month. Roboy, as the new machine is called, has various human-like abilities such as hand-shaking and bicycle-riding, but instead of a skin-like covering, Roboy is wrapped in shiny white armor that clearly indicates its robot status.“As long as people can clearly see that the robot is a machine, even if they project their feelings into it, then they feel comfortable, ”Rolf Pfeifer, the creator of Roboy from the University of Zurich, Switzerland, told the BBC.But the problem that people have with robots is not just with the way they look. It also has to do with the roles that they play in our lives.A survey last year of European Union countries showed that 88 percent of those interviewed agreed that robots are“necessary as they can do jobs that are too hard or dangerous for people”, such as space exploration and war fighting. But when it comes to taking care of children, 60 percent of respondents said that robots should not be allowed to participate, because as robots become more sophisticated(先进的), parents may be tempted to hand over too much responsibility to them.No matter what, robots will soon enter our homes, Pfeifer said. What is not yet clear is whether they will act more like servants who work for us or companions who live with us.1. What is the purpose of the text?A. To introduce the newly-invented robot, Roboy.B. To discuss problems related to designing robots.C. To explore the roles robots will play in our future lives.D. To argue what kinds of robots appeal to people more.2. Why did Pfeifer make Roboy look like a robot?A. To better protect it.B. To make it look cool and modern.C. To distinguish it clearly from a human.D. To keep its price down.3. According to the second-to-last paragraph, most of the people interviewed .A. welcome robots into their homesB. believe robots are useful for certain dangerous tasksC. think families with children s houldn’t use robots for houseworkD. are afraid that children will become less responsible if robots take care of them4. Which best describes the author’s tone in the article?A. Objective.B. Critical.C. Admiring.D. Anxious.B(2013·马鞍山模拟)体裁议论文题材孩子的教育词数312 When my son was just learning to talk, I carried him around thehouse in my arms and pointed out things to him. “Look, David, aclock. ”He’d smile and point as I did and say“clock”. David wasquick at connecting the shape of things to their words.When my son was about four years old, I walked with him to the backyard. I knew that there was an ant colony under one of the slate stones in the walkway near the shed, so I said to David, “Come on. I want to show you something. ”As I showed David the ants that were crawling around the slate stone, he crouched down on his legs and looked with great intensity at the ants.For days after that, David wanted to look under every rock in the garden, and we often found worms, ants and so on. I recognized that David loved to look at things closely and observe how things moved, and so I continued to point things out to him as he grew older: planes, cars, shells etc. . David was a keen observer, and I just gave him the suggestions as to where to look.Today David is a medical doctor at Columbia University Center. I did not know that David would someday be a doctor, someone who has to pay close attention to what he sees, and yet I felt compelled when he was a boy to encourage his enthusiasm for observation.That is what teachers and parents do: encourage a child’s enthusiasm for a particular interest: music, swimming, art, reading. And we provide tools for the children. If a child likes to draw, give him brushes, pens, and paper. If a girl likes to tap on the table top, give hera drum. If a child wants to sing, give him a microphone and a Frank Sinatra recording.5. The author wrote the passage to .A. recall the happy times he spent with his sonB. tell us that children are full of curiosityC. tell us how to let children love natureD. advise us to develop children’s interest or talent6. The author showed David the ants to .A. prevent him from becoming boredB. develop his enthusiasm for observationC. teach him some new wordsD. arouse his interest in creatures7. Which of the following can best describe the author’s viewpoint?A. Make children have their own hobbies.B. Teach children to be independent as soon as possible.C. Satisfy children’s interest by possible means.D. Hobbies can determine one’s future.8. The underlined word“intensity”in the third paragraph probably means“”.A. hatredB. fearC. curiosityD. doubtC体裁记叙文题材生活哲理词数252 At a physics conference dinner with my husband Alex, I sat nextto a man I’ll call Clayton. Clayton kept talking about himself allthrough the entire conversation: he had solved problems no one elsecould; only his views were right; other researchers’work wasinaccurate or unimportant. I could not put in a word. Extremely annoyed, I planned to avoid Clayton in the future. In fact, I decided never to have another conversation with him.A few days later I was in an education class. Our professor explained how one child could become the target of the other students’ ridicule(讥笑).“Usually it’s because the class sees their own weaknesses glaringly magnified(放大)in that student. They don’t want to admit they have the same weakness, so they ridicule and exclude the student. The behavior of both the class and the excluded student is caused by personal insecurity. ”As I took notes, suddenly I thought of Clayton. It struck me that I have many of the same faults. How easily I rule a conversation and leave others out. I, too, sometimes feel that only my opinion is right. My concerns or work easily seems most important. As my professor had described, I reacted negatively to someone in whom I experienced my own weakness.I changed my mind. Instead of avoiding Clayton, I’ll try to listen patiently with the same kindness and acceptance that I need.9. The writer was extremely annoyed with Clayton partly because .A. he said not all his views were rightB. he wouldn’t let her put in a wordC. he kept silent all through the dinnerD. he was too particular about the food10. Who said the words in Paragraph 3?A. Clayton.B. The writer’s husband.C. The writer.D. The writer’s professor.11.

We can infer from the last paragraph that .A. the writer will see other people more positivelyB. Clayton will not rule a conversation any longerC. the writer will try to avoid talking with ClaytonD. Clayton will find out he has his own weakness【拓展训练】1. 阅读A篇文章, 回答下列问题。

专题检测卷(二十一)阅读理解（建议用时：25分钟）ABad news travels fast—when you watch the eveningnews or read the morning papers, it seems that things thatget the most coverage are all tragedies like wars, earthquakes, floods, fires and murders.This is the classic rule for mass media. “They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling, ”Jonah Berger, a psychologist at the University of Pennsylvania, the US, told The New York Times.But with social media getting increasingly popular, information is now being spread in different ways, and researchers are discovering new rules —good news can actually spread faster and farther than disasters and other sad stories.Berger and his colleague Katherine Milkman looked at thousands of articles on The New York Times’website and analyzed the“moste-mailed”list for six months.One of his findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list. Those stories aroused feelings of awe and made the readers want to share this positive emotion with others.Besides science stories, readers were also found to be likely to share articles that were exciting or funny. “The more positive an article, the more likely it was to be shared, ”Berger wrote in his new book, Contagious: Why Things Catch On. For example, “stories about newcomers falling in love with New York City”, he writes, tend to be shared more than“the death of a popular zookeeper”.The difference between the two is due to the fact that the mass media prefers news that gets attention, while when you share a story with your friends“you care a lot more about how they react”, Berger explained.But does all this good news actually make the audience feel better? Not necessarily.According to a study by researchers at Harvard University, people tend to say more positive things about themselves when they’re talking to a bigger audience, rather than just one person, which helps explain all the perfect vacations that keep showing up on micro blogs. This, researchers found, makes people think that life is unfair and that they’re less happy than their“friends”.But no worries. There’s a quick and easy way to relieve the depressionyou get from view ing other people’s seemingly perfect lives - turn on the television and watch the news. There is always someone doing worse than you are.1. Why do mass media like to report bad news according to the article?A. They want to attract the attention of readers.B. They care a lot about how readers react.C. They think bad news spreads faster than good news.D. They want to show concern for people in disaster-hit areas.2. Which of the following is TRUE about Berger’s and his colleague’s study?A. They found that articles on science are more likely to be shared.B. Sad news tended to arouse the audience’s feelings of awe and sympathy.C. It was aimed at finding out whether mass media should cover more tragedies.D. Good news usually helps the audience relieve their negative emotions.3. We can conclude from the last three paragraphs that.A. watching news is good for people’s healthB. people shouldn’t be jealous of their friendsC. sharing good news with friends will double your happinessD. people might not be as happy as they suggest on their micro blogs4. What’s the article mainly about?A. Why bad news is covered most often.B. Why good news spreads faster than bad news.C. How people react differently to bad and good news.D. Which kind of news makes the audience feel better.B(2013·安徽高考压轴卷)New Annotated Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan DoylePrice: ￡28. 00Publication Date: 30/11/2010Publisher’s Description:Collect Doyle’s fifty-six classic short stories, arranged in the order in which they appeared in late-nineteenth-and-early-twentieth-century book editions, in a set complemented by four novels, editor biographies of Doyle, Holmes, and Watson as well as literary and cultural details about Victorian society.Breaking Ground by Daniel LibeskindPrice: ￡16. 00Publication Date: 11/10/2010Brief Description:This is a book about the adventure life that can offer each of us if we seize it, and about the powerful forces of tragedy, memory and hope.

A moving story of love and courage and tragedy and of the ways in which the human heart always seeks to heal itself.Last Child in the Woods by Richard LouvPrice: ￡20. 99Publication Date: 11/08/2010Brief Description:Camping in the garden, riding bikes through the woods, climbing trees, picking wildflowers, running through piles of autumn leaves. . . these are the things childhood memories are made of. But for a whole generation of today’s children the pleasures o f a free-range childhood are missing, and their indoor habits contribute to obesity, attention disorder and childhood depression. This book shows how our children have become increasingly distanced from nature, why this matters and how we can make a difference. Richard Louv is chairman of the Children and Nature Network and co-chair of the National Forum on Children and Nature. He is the author of seven other books and has written for newspapers and magazines including the New York Times and the Washington Post.5. If one wants to know something about Victorian society, he or she may read.A. Light on SnowB. In the Shadow of No TowersC. Breaking GroundD. New Annotated Sherlock Holmes6.

Who has also written for newspapers and magazines according to the text?A. Arthur Conan DoyleB. Daniel LibeskindC. Art SpiegelmanD. Richard LouvCI looked at the fresh-faced(朝气蓬勃的)boy andback at the cat he had probably had all his life. I wasgoing to have to tell him that his cat had a tumor(肿瘤). Even if it were surgically removed, she probably would survive lessthan a year. And there the boy was, all alone. Death is something we push to the background and ignore as long as possible, but in reality every living thing we love will die. How death is first experienced can be life-forming? It can be a thing of horror and suffering or a peaceful release.So I would have to guide the boy through this myself. I did not want the burden. It had to be done perfectly, or he might end up emotionally scarred. It would have been easy to run from this task and leave it to a parent. But when I looked at the boy’s face, I knew I couldn’t do that. So I told him as gently as I could what I had found, and what it meant.As I spoke, the boy moved quickly away from me, probably so I could not see his face. I discussed the alternatives with him. I could let her fade away at home, or give her an injection and put her to sleep. He listened carefully and nodded gravely. He said he didn’t want her to suffer. He reluctantly told me to put the cat to sleep. In my professional opinion, too, this was the least bad option.I could see, though, how much it was costing him. I could not control the tears streaming down my face, or the grief(悲伤)I felt welling inside for this boy who had had to become a man so quickly, all alone.He held his cat’s head and reassured her while I administered(执行)the injection. She drifted off to sleep, her head cradled(轻轻抱着)in his hand. The animal looked quiet and at rest. The owner now bore all the suffering.Something was missing, though. I did not feel as though I had completed my task. It came to me suddenly that though I had asked him to become a man instantly, and he had done so with grace and strength, he was still a child. I held out my arms and asked him if he needed a hug. He did, and in truth, so did I.9. When the author was about to tell the boy what was wrong with the cat, he or she.A. was full of sympathy for the catB. had already informed his parents of what happenedC. decided to help him face death without hesitationD. was afraid that this experience might have a deep effect on him emotionally10. What was the boy’s first reaction upon hearing the bad news about his cat?A. He was sad and angry.B. He tried to hide his feelings.C. He refused to accept the cruel truth.D. He turned to the author for comfort.11. What was the best way to deal with the cat, in the opinion of the author?A. Letting her fade away at home.B. Giving her drugs to ease her pain.C. Having her tumor surgically removed.D. Putting an end to her life without pain.12. What is the author’s attitude toward the boy?A. Proud but puzzled.B. Worried but objective.C. Doubtful and disappointed.D. Sympathetic and supportive.【拓展训练】根据阅读理解A篇, 回答下列问题。

Family structure had changed dramatically over the last 50 years. The following are the types of families existing today.Nuclear FamilyThe nuclear family is a traditional type of family structure. This family type consists of mother, father and children. The nuclear family was long held in esteem by society as being the ideal in which to raise children because children in nuclear families receive strength and stability from the two-parent structure.Single Parent FamilyThe single parent family consists of one parent raising one or more children on his or her own. When only one parent is at home, it may be a struggle to find childcare, as there is only one parent working. This limits income and opportunities in many cases, although many single parent families have help from relatives and friends.Extended FamilyThe extended family structure consists of two or more adults who are related, either by blood or marriage, living in the same home. This family includes many relatives living together and working toward common goals. This type of family structure may be formed due to financial difficulties or because older relatives are unable to care for themselves alone.Childless FamilyWhile most people think of family as including children, there are couples who either cannot or choose not to have children. Many childless families take on the responsibility of pet ownership or have extensive contact with their nieces and nephews as a substitute for having their own children.StepfamilyOver half of all marriages end in divorce, and many of these individuals choose to getremarried. This creates the stepfamily, which involves two separate families merging into one new unit. Stepfamilies tend to have more problems, such as adjustment periods and discipline issues.There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to what is the best type of family structure. As long as a family is filled with love and support for one another, it tends to be successful and thrive.2(2013·安庆模拟)阅读下面短文, 根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

This way they can ensure their safety and well-being, although teachers and school representatives are trying to improve the situation in schools by increasing the number of the persons in charge of the safety of the students.The main reason for violence acts are the films and cartoons that fill the children’s time. They want to do everything they watch on TV and never think of the consequences, and they may hurt a classmate or a teacher.On the other hand, parents are not fully satisfied with the children’s results obtained in classes and they consider private classes would have better results.When a teacher has to watch 30 students in class he can’t probably see what each of them is doing, how he is writing, or if he understands the explanations. At home the teacher can explain in details everything thechild doesn’t understand as many times as he considers proper.And many times the child grows fond of the teacher at home, who becomes his best friend, and who helps him whenever he needs someone to talk to.However, the best solution would be a mixture between the education received at school and that at home, because school makes children communicate and socialize. Keeping a child at home for fear there might happen something bad to him only makes the chil d’s character weak and prevents him from knowing what real life is. Staying in a crystal ball only does harm to the child.All in all, schools have been created to help children, not to harm them, so it’s best to keep children in these special places, where they learn, laugh, have fun and make new friends.1. The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to.A. teach parents the ways to keep their children safeB. show solutions to developing children’s characterC. explain the main reason for violence acts in schoolsD. analyze an education problem and give opinions2.

We can infer from the passage that.A. violence TV programs have bad effects on children’s behaviorB. the teacher at home is more patient than the teacher at schoolC. children today are weak from lack of sense of right and wrongD. there are too many students in class for a teacher to teach答案解析Ⅰ. 1. 【解析】选B。

Ask any group of teenagers in the UK what they most like to eat, and foods like pizzas, hamburgers and chips are sure to get a mention. But what teenagers like to eat is not necessarily what they should be eating. According to the National Diet and Nutrition Survey, far too many young people in the UK between the ages of 4 and 18 consume too much fat, sugar and salt in their diet. Meanwhile, their intake of fibre, iron and calcium(钙)is too low.For a growing body, eating foods containing plenty of calcium, such as milk, yogurt and cheese, is important as calcium is completely necessary for the development of healthy, strong bones. Similarly, foods that are rich in iron are good for young, rapidly developing bodies, so red meat, bread, green vegetables, and dried fruit are also recommended.It is during our teenage years that lifestyle habits can be formed, so itis vital that young people are educated about what foods are good for them. In 2005, and in an attempt to change eating habits and open teenagers’minds to new tastes, the famous chef, Jamie Oliver started a“Feed Me Better”campaign. He worked with teachers and cooks in a number of schools across the UK to provide more healthy, nutritious school meal choices. Although some teenagers and parents resisted it, the campaign was in general believed as a huge success and helped to influence governmental policy on nutritional standards for school meals.No one expects to end the teenage love affair with fast and junk food, but, hopefully, if projects like“Feed Me Better”continue to give out the right messages, more young people will understand the importance of balancing several treats with healthier food choices.2(2013·合肥模拟) 阅读下面短文, 根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

专题检测卷(二十二)阅读理解（建议用时：25分钟）A体裁说明文题材电影艺术词数280From Avatar to Lord of the Rings, plants are no strangers to playing big movie roles. However, no one has ever shot a film that plants themselves can watch until now. In a New York art gallery, seven house plants have spent the last seven weeks watching Strange Skies, the first travel documentary for a vegetable audience. All the plants sat in the cinema in rows, enjoying themselves in Italian sunshine.The movie was made by American artist Jonathon Keats. It consists of Italian skies recorded over two months and made into a six-minute-long movie. The film shows the clear dawn(黎明), high clouds, amazing dusk and then beautiful night. The movie has no sound and the plants, of course, do not applaud. But Stephen Squibb, a professor from Harvard University, said these plants could benefit from it—the light of the movie keeps them alive because they can continue the process of turning light into energy.plants—that were not “I realized there was a much larger audience—being serviced, ”Keats said. “I wanted to provide plants with entertainment that companies such as Disney provide for humans. ”Meanwhile,Keatssensibilities(敏感性)further. He plans to open also wants to explore plants’.a“restaurant for plants”at a Californian museumOne visitor, photographer Abbas Ebrahimi, admired(羡慕)the green audience, “Plants are better than us. We die and go, while in spring they come back each time. ”But when talking about the movie, he said after thinking for a few minutes, “It doesn’t mean anything to me at all. It’s just about light. For some people, it might mean something. ”1. What can we learn about Keats according to the passage?A. He is an artist from Harvard University.B. He opened a restaurant for plants.C.

It can be learned that Strange Skies.A. has already created beautiful soundB. was shot from dawn to duskC. made plants play roles in itD. is the first travel film for plants3.

But when it comes to brains, is biggeralways better?superior Traditionally, scientists have thought that humans’intelligence derived(源于)mostly from the fact that our brains are three times bigger than those of our nearest living relatives, chimpanzees. People even used to believe that because men have slightly larger brains than women that men are smarter.This, however, is not the truth. Scientists at University College London in the UK have found that brain organization, and not brain size, is the key to the superiority of human intelligence, reported Live Science.Through millions of years of evolution, our ancestors were constantly pushed to get smarter so that they could meet the demands of newenvironments. However, holding this growing intelligence in increasingly large brains was not the best choice because b igger brains require more energy to power. “This is when reorganization may come i n to play, ”said Christophe Soligo, a member of the London research team.In the study, scientists looked at the brains of 17 species of primates(灵长目动物), including monkeys, apes and humans. They found that in the process of evolution, brains didn’t keep growing as a whole. Certain regions of the brain grew prior to others in response t o species’needs, and in this way they could make the best use of their limited brain space.For example, when early humans were struggling to survive, the brain region in charge of using tools and finding food grew in size more than other regions. But in modern times, the prefrontal cortex(前额皮质)—the region in charge of social cognition(认知), moral judgments and goal-directed planning—grew more than the rest of the brain.Think of the brain as a room. If a big room is poorly organized, ittuff than a smaller one.doesn’t necessarily store more sPaul Manger, professor at the University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa, explains this principle using the example of whales. He told Scientific American: “Whales have big brains, absolutely. But if you look at the actual structure of the brain, it’snot very complex. Brain size only matters if the rest of the brain is organized properly. ”5. It has recently been found that humans are smarter than the other animals mainly because.A. they are a species of primatesB. they have much larger brainsC. their brain structure is more complexD. they were constantly pushed to get smarter6. According to the article, in recent human evolution, .A. the brain kept growing in size to adapt to new environmentsB. most regions of the brain didn’t changeC. the prefrontal cortex grew more than the rest of the brainD. humans’brains became increasingly simple so that humans could survive7. What can we conclude from the article?A. Gender makes a difference in intelligence.B. The size of the brain has nothing to do with intelligence.C. Species whose brain is organized properly tend to be smarter.D. Larger brains are usually organized better than smaller ones.8. The method the writer uses to develop the last paragraph is.A. by presenting research dataB. by giving examplesC. by making a comparisonD. by analyzing cause and effectC(2013·淮南模拟) 体裁说明文题材年度单词词数273Every year Chris Brogan posts his three words for a new year.
