18、TV shows. The style of these shows suggests that the plots we watch are the realities of the world. However，do the shows even have a bit of reality in them？ In a study done by Psychology Today, a survey of 239 people was conducted to determine the reasons for watching reality TV shows. Though it was

19、 assumed （假设）at the beginning of the study that the main reason for watching the shows was to stay in the social circle and be able to chat in the office the next day, the reasons for watching turned out to be much different.A common reason given by the audience of the shows was the idea of fame. Th

20、e idea of the lifestyle of a higher class was appealing to most of those who were surveyed. Seeing people with fame on television plants the idea that they too are able to gain a higher status in society.The problem at hand is that television is showing us what reality is supposed to be, while at th

21、e same time making the reality of the TV shows unreal.So many girls in todays society are dressing like the girls on these shows. They watch these shows and want to look like the people on the shows. This leads to monotony in society, and the idea of the unique individual disappears. The way young A

22、mericans act today is also changing. Children and teens are watching reality TV shows and wanting to act more like adults. They are using what used to be considered adult words and doing things associated with adulthood, like drinking, at a very early age. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, To be yourse

26、 morning person？You might not like the findings in this new research. From a lack of air and drinking water to solar radiation, theoretical Mars pioneers face any number of potential obstacles to settling on the red planet. Now, scientists have found something else to add to the list：seriously messe

27、d-up biological clocks.One day on Mars - which scientists refer to as the solar day, or sol- is 37 minutes longer than a day on Earth. A team of European scientists recently demonstrated why that could be a problem.Circadian rhythms(生理节奏) are the bodys natural cycles of rest and waking, which tend t

28、o follow roughly 24-hour light-dark cycles. These natural rhythms - which play a role in biological functions including brain wave activity and hormone（荷尔蒙） production - can be interrupted by things like jet lag（时差）and night shift work.For the study, the researchers compared mice with healthy, 24-ho

29、ur circadian clocks to mice with a genetic change that caused them to have shorter, 20-hour circadian clocks. The mice with healthy biological clocks were more likely to survive and reproduce, while the mice with shorter biological clocks were more likely to die off.What does this all have to do wit

30、h space travel？Since the Martian sol is longer than a day on Earth, people with shorter circadian clocks could suffer from health problems as they try to adapt to the rotational（转动） speed of the red planet.Unfortunately, the body is unlikely to adapt to the new conditions or learn to develop a longe

31、r clock. As Loudon explained, Learning is not a likely option.In other words：Sorry, super-early risers - NASA might not want you for the next Mars mission.28. From the passage, people can face the following troubles living on Mars EXCEPT _ .A. absence of airB. a lot of fierce creaturesC. lack of dri

32、nking waterD. messed-up biological clocks29.

34、ctionsD. the Martian sol is longer than a day on EarthDOver millions of years, African penguins have developed a keen sense of where to find food. Once theyre old enough, they set off from the shores on which they were hatched（孵化）for the first time and swim long distances in search of tasty fish lik

35、e anchovies and sardines. But they dont search directly for the fish themselves. When African penguins head out to sea, they look for areas with low surface temperatures and high chlorophyll（叶绿素）. Because those conditions signal the presence of algae（藻类）. And lots of algae means lots of plankton（浮游动

36、物）, which in turn means lots of their favorite fish. Well, thats what it used to mean.Climate change plus over fishing have made the penguin feeding grounds a mirage（海市蜃楼）.The habitat is indeed plankton-rich, but now its fish-poor. Researchers call this an ecological trap. Its a situation where you

37、have a signal that previously pointed an animal towards good-quality habitat. That habitat has been changed, usually by human pressures. The signal stays, but the quality in the environment gets worse.Richard Sherley, a zoologist at the University of Exeter and his team used satellite imaging to tra

38、ck the African penguins from eight sites along southern Africa. Historically, the birds benefited from tons of fish off the coasts of Angola, Namibia and western South Africa, but now theyre going hungry.I was really hoping wed see them going east, and finding areas which the fish had moved to but i

39、t ends up being quite a sad story for the penguins. said Richard. The researchers calculate that by falling into this ecological trap, African penguin populations on South Africas Western Cape have declined by around 80 percent.Some research groups are exploring the idea of moving them to a place wh

40、ere they cant get trapped, like the Eastern Cape. But Sherley thinks that a solution in the long run means making and carrying out rules to create more sustainable（可持续的）fishing industry, which needs public support.32. How do penguins find their food？ _ A. They discover fish with their keen sense.B.

41、They swim long distances directly for fish.C. They make signals to each other when finding fish.D. They look for warmer and greener areas.33.

42、 mirage on the sea.34. What can be done to help the penguins in the long run？ _ A. Move the penguins to other places.B. Create nature reserves for penguins.C. Keep a balanced fishing industry.D. Increase the population of penguins.35. What is the main idea of the passage？ _ A. African penguins are l

43、osing their habitats.B. African penguins are falling into ecological traps.C. A sustainable development is needed.D.
