16、had only been a few years ago that Indigo, our black Lab （拉布拉多寻回犬）,had first rushed through our door. While time raced by, our children grew up and went off to university. The mirror, which had reflected a young mum when Indigo first arrived, now showed a woman in late middle age. We all turned grey

17、 ： me, my husband, the dog. In August 2017, I took Indigo for one last walk. She was slow and shaky on her paws. She died that month, a tennis ball by her side. Not long after, I got a call from our dog daycare. One of their customers was dying, and her dog, Chloe, needed a home. Given our recent lo

18、ss, they asked, might our family be interested in adopting her? I told them I d owned a succession of dogs since 1964, each one of them a witness to a particular phase of my life. But with the loss of Indigo, all that was over. The days of my dogs, I now understood, were done at last.Then one mornin

19、g, as I was passing the dog daycare, I changed my mind. What harm could Chloe do? She spent hours that first day going to every comer, sniffing things out. Finally she sat down by the fireplace and gave me a look as if to say if you wanted, I would stay with you.Everything I know about love Ive lear

20、ned from dogs. But everything I know about loss Ive learned from them, too. They fill our hearts. And then, in what seems like no time at all, they re gone.24.

23、Mammals can produce their own body heat and control their body temperatures. This process is known as warm-bloodedness. Scientists believe that it may be the reason why mammals likely rule almost every ecosystem. W arm - blooded mammals are more active than cold-blooded animals. They can live in dif

24、ferent environments, from the frozen arctic to the boiling desert. And they reproduce faster. The soft tissues that would give information about warm-or-cold bloodedness are rarely preserved in fossils （化 石）. So, paleontologists, or experts in the study of fossils, do not know exactly how mammals de

25、veloped and changed into warm - blooded creatures.A group of scientists tried to answer that question in a study recently published in Nature. Ricardo Araujo is a paleontologist at the University of Lisbon. Araujo and a group of researchers proposed that the shape and size of the inner ear structure

26、s called canals could be used to study body temperature. The researchers compared ear canals in 341 animals. The movement of fluid （流体）through the ear canals helps the body to preserve balance and movement. This fluid in cold - blooded animals is cooler and thicker, meaning wider canals are needed.

27、W arm - blooded animals have less ear fluid and smaller canals.Araujo said, u Warm - bloodedness, or endothermy is a defining feature of mammals, including us humans. Having a high body temperature regulates all our actions and behaviors. The research team suggested that as body temperature increase

28、d and the animals became more active, the shape and size of ear canals changed to preserve balance and movement. It is maybe too far-fetched, but interesting, to think that the beginning of endothermy in our ancestors may have ultimately led to the construction of the Giza pyramids or the developmen

29、t of the smartphone,“ Araujo said. If our ancestors would have not become independent of environmental temperatures, these human achievements would probably not be possible. ”28. What is the purpose of Araujo5 s study?A. To publish the study reports in Nature.B. To highlight the importance of warm-b

30、loodedness.C. To prove mammal5 s ruling position in the ecosystem.D. To explore how mammals developed warm-bloodedness.29. What can we infer from Araujos research ?A. Cold-blooded animals have less ear fluid.B. The inner ear structures are typical of mammals.C. Warm-bloodedness distinguishes mammals

31、 from other animals.D. Environmental temperatures probably determine human achievements.30. What does the underlined word “far-fetched” probably mean in paragraph 3?A. Distant. B. Boring.C. Incredible.D. Reasonable.31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Health. B. Science.C. Edu

32、cation.D. Entertainment.DChinese scientists say they have developed a robotic fish that can remove microplastic particles （颗粒）from water environments. Researchers working on the project say the robots could help to clean up plastic pollution in oceans around the world. The robotic swimmers are about

33、 1. 3 centimeters long. They are made of a soft chemical compound. The robots are designed to absorb microplastics while moving through the water.The project was launched by a team at Sichuan University in southwestern China. The researchers said the robots have already performed well in shallow wat

34、er and they plan to carry out more tests in deeper waters. The robotic fish were built to target microplastic particles, which are smaller than five millimeters. Studies have confirmed that microplastic pollution has been discovered in many natural environments. The material comes from the breakdown

35、 of plastic products and industrial waste.The team said the robots can be controlled by light. Turning “a near-infrared light laser （近红外线 激光器） on and off causes the fish s tail to move back and forth, the American Chemical Society said. The robotic fish can swim up to 2. 76 body lengths per second.

36、The researchers said this is faster than most similar soft robots.Wang Yuyan was a member of Sichuan University s research team. She told Reuters news agency that the small, lightweight robot is currently being used to collect microplastics for research purposes. But Wang added that the team plans t

37、o expand that use so the robot fish can remove larger amounts of microplastic waste from deep ocean areas. The fish can take in different kinds of microplastics and even repair itself when damaged, the researchers said. And if a robot fish is accidentally eaten by a real fish, it could safely digest

38、 the material, the team added. Wang said similar robots could be developed to be placed inside the human body to remove unwanted materials or disease.32. Whats the robotic fish designed to do?A. Identify the polluted sources of oceans.B. Monitor the process of plastic production.C. Tackle microplast

39、ics in water environments.D. Prevent industrial waste entering oceans.33. What do we know about the robotic fish at present?A. It s still under test.B.It s already used widely.C. It performs well everywhere.D.It sells well worldwide.34. Which of the following is the advantage of the robotic fish?A.

40、It can serve as food for fish.B.It can swim faster than fish.C. It is fairly easy to break down.D.It is straightforward to operate.35. Whats the potential use of the robots of this kind according to Wang Yuyan?A. Help to treat humans diseases.B. Removing larger plastic products.C. Recycling micropla

41、stic particles.D. Absorbing plastics in the human body.第二节（共5小题:每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Read the Newspaper Quickly and EfficientlyYou want to stay informed about the world but you have such a busy life. 36 Here are tips for reading the newspaper in the fast

42、est, most efficient way possible ：Scan the headlines37 Generally speaking, the headline presents the theme of the story so you can skip over some stories and read others. Remember that some stories will directly affect you while others may not. Use your best judgment in determining which stories you

43、 want to read based on their headlines.38Basically, a newspaper article presents the most crucial information early on and gradually reveals less and less significant details. In other words, you can read the first one to five paragraphs or so and really already know the meat of the story.Read the p

44、hoto captionsIf you re really in a hurry but you want a little bit more information than what the headline provides, skip the story and go straight to the photo caption （说明）. Photo captions often serve as an intermediate between the headline and the actual story. 39 Keep in mind, though, that not al

45、l photo captions are created equal. While some may give you a summary of the story behind the photograph, others are much more unclear.Look at the graphicsSearch for bar graphs （图表），pie charts, and other visuals that show you what you need to know by the numbers in a flash. Often you don t even have

46、 to hunt; the graphics are noticeably displayed and perhaps even in color. Graphics alone rarely, if ever, provide much deep insight into a story. 40A. Read the first three paragraphsB. Grasp the most crucial information firstC. They give you some detail but not everything.D. Headlines usually decla

47、re what the story s about upfront.E. The most important details are usually included in headlines.F. However, they do give you a brief introduction to what makes a certain story so attractive.G. Actually, that doesnt mean you can t take a few minutes to learn about what s happening worldwide.第三部分 语言
