18、ens. Now, a new study suggests that bumblebees force plants to flower by making small bites in their leaves.Consuelo De Moraes, a scientist at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, noticed bumblebees making tiny bites in the leaves of their greenhouse plants. The insects didnt seem to

19、 be carrying off the bits of leaves to their nests or eating them.Supposing the bees were causing the plants to flower, Consuelo De Moraes and his team set up a series of experiments. They placed flowerless tomato plants and two kinds of worker bees in cages. The bees fed with enough pollen (花粉) sel

20、dom damaged the plants, while the ones without having pollen for three days busily did so. Scientists then removed the plants after the bees made five to ten holes in their leaves. The small holes caused the tomato plants to flower a month sooner than usual.“ In a sense, the bees are signaling, Hey,

21、we need food. Please speed up your flowering, and well pollinate (授粉）you.” said Lars Chittka, a behavioral scientist at Queen Mary University of London.To make sure that their discoveries didnt result from the man-made conditions in the lab, the scientists placed bumblebees and a variety of flowerle

22、ss plant species on their Zurich rooftop in late March 2018. The bees were free to fly as far as they could. Yet they set to work damaging the leaves on all the non-flowering plants nearest to their nests. The bees lost interest in this activity toward the end of April as more flowers came out, acco

23、rding to the study.The research is of great value, for it can increase the human food supply. However, some questions remain to be answered, like“ Why do the bites cause the plants to flower?” and “ Does flowering early lead to higher fitness for the plants?”24. Why did the bumblebees bite the leave

24、s?A. Because they wanted to eat the leaves.B. Because they were to get pollen to eat.C. Because they were exercising to be stronger.D. Because they would carry the leaves to the nests.25. What does the underlined“ this activity” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A. Dancing on the leaves. B. Flying as far as t

26、idea of the passage?A. Bumblebees speed up plants flowering by biting leaves.B. Human food supply will largely depend on bumblebees.C. Bumblebees like to damage the plants nearest their nests.D. Rooftop plants flower more than the ones in greenhouses.CHow does an ecosystem work? What makes the popul

27、ation of different species the way they are? Why are there so many flies and so few wolves? To find an answer, scientists havebuilt mathematical, models of food webs, noting who eats whom and how much each one eats.With such models, scientists have found out some key principles operating in food web

28、s. Most food webs, for example, consist of many weak links rather than a few strong ones. When a predator（掠食动物） always eats huge numbers of a single prey（猎物）, the two species are strongly linked；when a predator lives on various species, they are weakly linked. Food webs may be dominated by many weak

29、 links because that arrangement is more stable over the long term. If a predator can eat several species, it can survive the extinction (灭绝) of one of them. And if a predator can move on to another species that is easier to find when a prey species becomes rare, the switch allows the original prey t

30、o recover. The weak links may thus keep species from driving one another to extinction.Mathematical models have also revealed that food webs may be unstable, where small changes of top predators can lead to big effects throughout entire ecosystems. In the 1960s, scientists proposed that predators at

31、 the top of a food web had a surprising amount of control over the size of populations of other species-including species they did not directly attack.And unplanned human activities have proved the idea of top-down control by top predators to be true. In the ocean, we fished for top predators such a

32、s cod on an industrial scale, while on land, we killed off large predators such as wolves. These actions have greatly affected the ecological balance.Scientists have built an early-warning system based on mathematical models. Ideally, the system would tell us when to adjust human activities that are

33、 pushing an ecosystem toward a breakdown or would even allow us to pull an ecosystem back from the borderline. Prevention is key, scientists say, because once ecosystems pass their tipping point（临界点）, it is remarkably difficult for them to return.28. What have scientists discovered with the help of

34、mathematical of food webs?A. The living habits of species in food webs.B. The rules governing food webs of the ecosystems.C. The approaches to studying the species in the ecosystems.D. The differences between weak and strong links in food webs.29. A strong link is found between two species when a pr

35、edator_.A. has a wide food choice. B. can easily find new prey.C. sticks to one prey species D. can quickly move to another place30. What conclusion can be drawn from the examples in Paragraph 4?A. Industrial activities help keep food webs stable.B. Rapid economic development threatens animal habita

36、ts.C. Species of commercial value dominate other species.D. Uncontrolled human activities greatly upset ecosystems.31. How does an early-warning system help us maintain the ecological balance?A. By getting illegal practices under control.B. By stopping us from killing large predators.C. By bringing

37、the broken-down ecosystems back to normal.D. By signaling the urgent need for taking preventive action.DYou never see them, but theyre with you every time you fly. They record where you are going, how fast youre traveling and whether everything on your airplane is functioning normally. Their ability

38、 to withstand (抵挡) almost any disaster makes them seem like something out of a comic book. Theyre known as the black box.When planes fall from the sky, as a Yemeni airliner did on its way to Comoros Islands in the India Ocean June 30, 2009, the black box is the best bet for identifying what went wro

39、ng. So when a French submarine detected the devices homing signal five days later, the discovery marked a huge step toward determining the cause of a tragedy in which 152 passengers were killed.In 1958, Australian scientist David Warren developed a flight-memory recorder that would track basic infor

40、mation like altitude and direction. That was the first mode for a black box, which became a requirement on all U.S. commercial flights by 1960. Early model, often failed to withstand crashes, however, so in 1965 the device was completely redesigned and moved to the rear of the plane - the area least

41、 subject to impact - from its original position in the landing wells (起落架舱). The same year, the Federal Aviation Authority required that the boxes, which were never actually black, be painted orange or yellow to be visible. Modern airplanes have two black boxes: a voice recorder, which tracks pilots

42、 conversations, and a flight-data recorder, which monitors fuel levels, engine noises and other operating functions that help investigators reconstruct the aircrafts final moments. Placed in an insulated（隔绝的）case and surrounded by a quarter-inch-thick panels of stainless steel, the boxes can withsta

43、nd massive force and temperatures up to 2,000. When submerged(潜入水中), theyre also able to emit signals from depths of 20,000 ft. Experts believe the boxes from Air France Flight 447, which crashed near Brazil on June 1, 2009, are in water nearly that deep, but statistics say theyre still likely to tu

44、rn up. In the approximately 20 deep-sea crashes over the past 30 years, only one planes black boxes were never recovered. 32. What information could be found from the black box on the Yemeni airliner?A. Data for analyzing the cause of the crash. B. The total number of passengers on board.C. The scen

45、e of the crash and level of the damage. D. Homing signals sent by the pilot before the crash.33. Why was the black box redesigned in 1965?A. New materials became available by that time. B. Too much space was needed for its installation. C. The early models often got damaged in the crash. D. The earl

46、y models didnt provide the needed data.34. Why did the Federal Aviation Authority require the black boxes be painted orange or yellow?A. To distinguish them from the colour of the plane. B. To caution people to handle them with care.C. To obey international standards D. To make them easily seen.35.

47、What do we know about the black boxes from Air France Flight 447?A. There is an urgent need for them to be reconstructed. B. There is still a good chance of their being recovered.C. They have stopped sending homing signals.D. They were destroyed somewhere near France.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，

Have you ever wondered why people from different parts of the world eat different types of food? 36 There is more of a connection between food and culture than yo

49、u may think. 37 It becomes a part of who we are.

Food from our family often becomes the comfort we seek as adults in times of frustration and stre

However, the food does not rema

51、in exactly the same. Some materials needed to make traditional dishes may not be readily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people

52、 from different countries. 39 Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the dishes.
