21、Humans and many other mammals have unusually efficient internal temperature regulating systems that automatically maintain stable core body temperatures（核心体温）in cold winters and warm summers. In addition, people have developed cultural patterns and technologies that help them adjust to extremes of temperature and humidity（湿度）.
In very cold climates, there is a constant danger of developing hypothermia（低体温）, which is a life threatening drop in core body temperature to below normal levels. The normal temperature for humans is about 37.0°C. However, differences in persons and even the time of day can cause it to be as much as 6°C higher or lower in healthy individuals. It is also normal for core body temperature to be lower in elderly people. Hypothermia begins to occur when the core body temperature drops to 34.4°C. Below 29.4°C, the body cools more rapidly because its natural temperature regulating system usually fails. The rapid decline in core body temperature is likely to result in death. However, there have been rare cases in which people have been saved after their temperatures had dropped to 13.9-15.6°C. This happened in 1999 to a Swedish woman who was trapped under an ice sheet in freezing water for 80 minutes. She was found unconscious, not breathing, and her heart had stopped beating, yet she was eventually saved despite the fact that her temperature had dropped to 13.7°C.
In extremely hot climates or as a result of uncontrollable infections, core body temperatures can rise to equally dangerous levels. This is hyperthermia. Life threatening hyperthermia typically starts in humans when their temperatures rise to 40.6-41.7°C. Only a few days at this extraordinarily high temperature level is likely to result in the worsening of internal organs and death.
【1】Why can humans keep stable body temperatures in different seasons?
A．Because their bodies are unusually efficient.
B．Because they experience different climates.
C．Because they can adjust to cultural patterns and technologies.
D．Because they have internal temperature regulating systems.
【2】What does Paragraph 2 mainly discuss?
A．The dangerous effects of hypothermia.
B．The change of body temperature.
C．The survival of the Swedish woman.
D．The regulating systems of natural temperature.
【3】People are unlikely to survive under the body temperature .
A．higher than 34.4°C B．lower than 29.4°C
C．between 40.6-41.7°C D．between 34.4-37°C
【4】What is the best title for the passage?
A．Surviving in an ice trap
B．Getting to know hypothermia
C．Adapting to climate extremes
D．Changing core body temperature
22、On Christmas Eve, a team of reindeer (驯鹿) will help Santa Claus deliver gifts to children all around the world. The reindeer, led by their fearless leader Rudolph, won’t be the only ones doing something special. Back in the highest Arctic, their cousins have a remarkable ability changing their eye color.
During the summer months, when the days are long and the sun is bright, reindeer’s tapetum lucidum (荧光膜), a mirror-like layer at the back of their eye, appears golden, which helps bounce the majority of light off the eyes, effectively acting like a pair of natural sunglasses. As winter comes, and the days become shorter and darker, the tapetum lucidum turns blue to absorb more light, allowing reindeer to improve their night vision and see clear in low light conditions.
With these adaptations, reindeer can adapt and thrive in one of the harshest environments on Earth. Unlike humans, reindeer can see well into the shorter Ultra Violet (UV) range. This UV vision enables them to spot food and predators more effectively in the snowy landscape. Lichens, a key part of their winter diet, absorb UV, so they show up dark against UV-reflecting white snow. Wolf and polar bear fur also absorb UV, so instead of disappearing against snow they pop out in high contrast, allowing reindeer to spot potential threats from a distance.
Reindeer change their eyes by adjusting their tapetum lucidum, which is made of collagen fibers. In winter, the collagen fibers become packed tighter, causing the tapetum lucidum to mainly reflect blue light. This change happens when reindeer dilate their pupils (瞳孔). In summer, the reindeer’s pupils return to a smaller size, which helps reindeer reduce the amount of light entering the eye.
But their unique adaptation may hurt them. Today, the increasing use of artificial lighting, especially during the winter months, poses a potential threat to their sensitive eyes. It can make reindeer lose their way, affecting their ability to survive in their challenging environment. So it is crucial for us to be mindful of our use of electricity and make efforts to minimize light pollution to ensure the well-being and survival of these magnificent creatures.
【1】What do we know from paragraph 2?
A．The shape of reindeer’s eyes varies with seasons.
B．It is difficult for reindeer to live in low light conditions.
C．The tapetum lucidum helps reindeer adapt to seasonal changes.
D．Reindeer’s eyes appear golden in winter while blue in summer.
【2】What is the use of UV vision for reindeer?
A．To help them see clear in dark nights.
B．To distinguish food of different colors quickly.
C．To protect their eyes from harsh sunlight in summer.
D．To better locate food and enemies during snowy days.
【3】What does the underlined word “dilate” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A．Relax.
B．Expand.
C．Narrow.
D．Hide.
【4】What is the purpose of the last paragraph?
A．To call on people to protect reindeer from light pollution.
B．To show the reasons for the decline in reindeer population.
C．To present humans’ great efforts to reduce artificial lighting.
D．To prove reindeer’s strong adaptability to harsh environments.
23、Some colors people see late at night could cause signs of the condition mental health experts call clinical depression(临床抑郁症). That was the finding of a study that builds on earlier study findings. They show that individuals who live or work in low levels of light overnight can develop clinical depression.
Doctors use the word clinical depression to describe severe form of depression. Signs may include loss of interest or pleasure in most activities, low energy levels and thoughts of death or suicide.
In the new study, American investigators designed an experiment that exposed hamsters（仓鼠）to different colors. The researchers chose hamsters because they are nocturnal, which means they sleep during the day and are active at night. The animals were separated into four groups. One group of hamsters was kept in the dark during their night-time period. Another group was placed in front of a blue light, a third group slept in front of a white light, while a fourth was put in front of a red light. After four weeks, the researchers noted how much sugary water the hamsters drank. They found that the most depressed animals drank the least amount of water.
Randy Nelson, at Ohio State University, says animals that slept in blue and white light appeared to be the most depressed. “What we saw is that these animals didn’t show any sleep interruptions at all but they did mess up biological clock (生物钟) genes and they did show depressive sign but if they were in the dim red light, they did not.” He says there’s a lot of blue in white light. This explains why the blue light and white light hamsters appear to be more depressed than the hamsters seeing red light or darkness.
【1】From the text we know that ________ made the hamster feel depressed.
A. the amount of the water B. the color of the light
C. the loss of pleasure D. the level of energy
【2】What was the purpose of the experiment on hamsters?
A. To show how well they slept.
B. To see how much sugary water they drank.
C. To explain why they liked dark colors.
D. To find out what caused the depression on them.
【3】The author explains the clinical depression by _________.
A. reporting an experiment process
B. presenting research data
C. setting down general rules
D. giving his own experience
【4】Where can we probably find the text?
A. In a tourist guidebook. B. In a physics textbook
C. In a science magazine. D. In an official announcement.
24、Sylvester Stallone had been a struggling actor before he achieved his great success as an actor and screenwriter, starting in 1976 with his role as boxer Rocky Balboa, in the first film of the successful Rocky series.
Stallone was so poor at one point that he sold his wife’s jewellery (珠宝). He ended up becoming homeless, sleeping in a bus station, and struggled to afford food. He even managed to get a small amount of money in his pocket by selling his dog for $25.
Soon after, Stallone decided to take his career into his own hands and write a movie role for himself. After watching a boxing match, Stallone wrote the script (脚本) for Rocky very quickly, and soon a studio wanted to buy the screenplay to make.
Stallone was offered $125,000 for the Rocky script, but the trouble for the studio was that Stallone wanted to star in the movie. Stallone was penniless, but he still turned down $125,000 in order to chase his dream.
After being refused on the idea that he “looked and talked funny”, Stallone was then offered $250,000 for the screenplay. He refused unless he could star. He was then offered $350,000. Again he refused.
The studio wanted this screenplay so badly, but was not willing to risk the money on this unknown actor. Stallone stayed strong, and eventually the studio gave him a small amount for the script and let him star.
With his fortunes up, Stallone went to buy back his dog, but the guy he sold it to would not sell him back. Stallone offered the man $1,000 for the dog, but the man refused. Eventually, the man accepted $15, 000 for the dog.
And this is why Stallone has deserved his success and why he is on this list of the best inspiring stories — because he was willing to do whatever it takes to get his dream.
【1】What do we know about Stallone from paragraph 2?
A．He lived a very hard life.
B．He didn’t want to work hard.
C．He made a living by selling dogs.
D．He didn’t get on well with his wife.
【2】Why did the studio refuse to offer the role to Stallone at first?
A．He wasn’t a responsible actor.
B．He asked too much for his script.
C．They had already found a famous star.
D．They thought he wasn’t the right person.
【3】Which of the following best describes Stallone?
A．Humorous.
B．Honest.
C．Determined.
D．Creative.
【4】What’s the best title for the text?
A．Stallone’s Rocky Series
B．Stallone’s Well-written Script
C．Stallone’s Road to Success
D．Stallone’s Journey to Fortunes
