5、 estate in Hampshire, England. The chosen pair will be invited to share dinner with the Earl and Countess in the state dining room, followed by coffee in the library. They will then retire to one of the gallery bedrooms with views overlooking 1,000 acres of parkland. Before they leave the following

The castle is also open on various days throughout the year. The couple even hosted the first public

9、Christmas ball at Highclere Castle last year.

It premieres in theaters on Friday in the US.1From the passage, we can learn that _.Athe guests will stay at Highclere Castle on Christmas EveBDownton Abbey

Now, reported New Scientist, they have been recorded making sounds when stressed.In a yet-to-b

14、e-published study, Itzhak Khait and his team at Tel Aviv University, in Israel, found that tomato and tobacco plants can make ultrasonic(超声的)noises. The plants “cry out” due to lack of water, or when their stems(茎)are cut. Its just too high-pitched(音调高的)for humans to hear.Microphones placed 10 centi

15、meters away from the plants picked up sounds in the ultrasonic range of 20 to 100 kilohertz(千赫兹). Human hearing usually ranges from 20 hertz to 20 kilohertz. “These findings can alter the way we think about the plant kingdom,” they wrote.On average, “thirsty” tomato plants made 35 sounds an hour, wh

16、ile tobacco plants made 11. When plant stems were cut, tomato plants made an average of 25 sounds in the following hour, and tobacco plants 15. Unstressed plants produced fewer than one sound per hour, on average.Perhaps most interestingly, different types of stress led to different sounds. The rese

17、archers trained a machine-learning model to separate the plants sounds from those of the wind, rain and other noises of the greenhouse. In most cases, it correctly identified whether the stress was caused by dryness or a cut, based on a sounds intensity and frequency. Water-hungry tobacco appears to

18、 make louder sounds than cut tobacco, for example. Although Khait and his colleagues only looked at tomato and tobacco plants, they think other plants also make sounds when stressed.If farmers could hear these sounds, said the team, they could give water to the plants that need it most. As climate c

19、hange causes more droughts, they said this would be important information for farmers. “The sounds that drought-stressed plants make could be used in precision agriculture(精准农业),” said Anne Visscher at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, in the UK.Khaits report also suggest that insets and mammals can h

20、ear the sounds up to 5 meters away and respond. For example, a moth(蛾子)may decide not to lay eggs on a water-stressed plant. Edward Farmer, at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland, is doubtful. He said that the idea of moths listening to plants is “a little too speculative”.If plants are screamin

21、g for fear of their survival, should we be thankful we cant hear them?4What did Khait and his team find from their research?APlants made low-pitched sounds when in danger.BPlants were able to produce sounds in response to stresses.CPlants picked up a wider range of sounds when stressed.DPlants made

22、ultrasonic noises to communicate with each other.5How did tomato and tobacco plants react to different stresses according to the text?AA plant reacted to different stresses with the same sound.BCut tomato plants produced more sounds per hour than water-hungry ones.CCut tobacco plants seemed to make

According to a recent article, “e-sports” are attracting a large number of audience.In

25、e-sports, players and teams compete in popular video computer games such as Dota 2 and Ovenvatch. Fans fill arenas to watch the action live on huge television screens.The games have gone way past kids playing against each other while sitting on a sofa at home. The International, a major competition

26、for players of Dota 2, awarded $24 million in prizes, with the winner taking home almost $11 million. A recent e-sports competition attracted more than 80,000 fans to the Olympic Stadium in Beijing, China.I have to admit that I am not a big fan of computer games. I know that some games can be educat

27、ional, but I think too many kids spend too much time sitting in front of a screen shooting space aliens. I think it would be better if kids spent more time reading or playing real sports such as basketball, baseball and soccer.And please dont tell me that competitive gaming is real sport because it

28、requires hand-eye coordination. According to my American Heritage Dictionary, a sport is “an activity involving physical exertion and skill.” I dont think anyone works up much of a sweat playing video games.Too often, regular sports send kids a kind of message. Competition starts early, when lots of

29、 kids are not ready for the ups and downs of games. Tryouts and travel teams come next, giving too many kids the message they are “not good” at sports. So lots of kids quit sports and start playing more video games.Maybe everyone in youth sports, including coaches, parents and kids, should think mor

32、competition held in Beijing.CTo explain the importance of playing sports.DTo call on people to pay more attention to traditional sports.DLanguage is perhaps the most distinctive of human characteristics, but its evolution remains a mystery. Our communication is enhanced by turn taking (轮流说话) or the

33、orderly exchange of communicative signals which has been found to be largely universal across cultures. But this turn-taking behavior is actually widespread across the animal kingdom, according to a large-scale review of studies published in the journal Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Societ

34、y B: Biological Sciences.In the study, the researchers stressed that one of the marks of turn-taking across all species is fine timing. For example, in some species of songbird, the gap between the calls of two different birds is often less than 50 milliseconds. On the other hand, communication in s

35、ome species is much slower. As for sperm whales, the gap between each vocal exchange is around two seconds. In humans, there is usually a gap of roughly 200 milliseconds between turns in a conversation.While many studies have focused on turn-taking behavior in animals, we still know very little abou

36、t it, partly because the reports are so varied that large-scale cross-species comparison is all but impossible, according to the researchers. “Overall, direct comparisons of turn-taking skills of non-human animals in relation to language origins are highly limited by lack of data, the application of

37、 different terms, different study methods and study environments, the authors wrote in the study.” Furthermore, investigations have so far mainly been focusing on single call types or songs of species, limiting a deeper understanding of the variability of turning-taking systems found in the animal k

38、ingdom.In light of this, the researchers proposed a new framework for future studies on turn-taking to make cross-species comparisons easier. “The goal of the framework is to promote large-scale cross-species comparisons”, Kobin Kendrick, from the University of Yorks Department of Language and Lingu

39、istic Science, said in a statement. “Such a framework will allow researchers to trace the history of this evolution of remarkable turn-taking behavior and solve old questions about the origins of human language.”12What can we learn from the text?ATurn-taking behavior in all species is well timed.BLa

40、nguage is the least distinctive of human characteristics.CThe gap between turns in a human conversation is about two seconds.DRelatively speaking, the gap between the calls of two birds is longer.13What makes the non-human animal language studies difficult according to the text?a.
