21、  

Pesticides might just be a bee's worst enemy. They harm their brains, slow down their reproduction, and even kill their buzz. Now it seems they damage their social lives and reduce their ability to care for their young.

While previous studies have shown that commonly used neonicotinoid（新烟碱类）pesticides make bees sick and affect how they search for food and navigate, a new study gives more of an idea of how these chemicals affect the internal workings of a colony（种群）. Studying these effects has proved difficult, so the team employed a new technique. They stuck tiny QR codes to the backs of humblebees and tracked their movements using a robotic camera.

The researchers looked at 12 colonies housed in a lab, giving some the same level of imidacloprid—the world's most commonly used pesticide—that they'd be exposed to in the wild while keeping others pesticide-free as controls. They checked on them for a few minutes 12 times a day. The findings are published in the journal Science.

Unfortunately, the researchers found a number of obvious differences between the bees exposed to the pesticide and the controls. The bees given neonicotinoids spent less time interacting with other bees and more time resting. This pause in activity tended to happen more at night, but the researchers aren't sure why.

"Bees actually have a very strong circadian rhythm（生理节奏）," lead author James Crall explained in a statement. "So what we found was that, during the day, there was no statistically observable effect, but at night, we could see that they were crashing. We don't know yet whether the pesticides are destroying circadian gene regulation or if this is just some, maybe physiological feedback…But it suggests that, just from a practical perspective, if we want to understand or study these compounds, looking at effects overnight matters a lot."

【1】What does the new study suggest about pesticides' effect on bees?

A.Pesticides lead to their disease.

B.Pesticides slow down their brain function

C.Pesticides upset their community.

D.Pesticides damage bees' internal parts.

【2】What does the underlined word "controls" in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A.The tools used to observe the bees.

B.The data recorded by the robotic camera

C.The researchers conducting the experiments.

D.The bees kept free from the pesticides.

【3】What can be concluded from the last paragraph?

A.The circadian rhythm of bees is stronger during the day.

B.It is vital to study the performance of bees at night

C.It is certain that pesticides affect bees only at night.

D.The pesticides do great harm to circadian gene regulation of bees.

【4】What's the purpose of the passage?

A.To inform people of the worrying effects of pesticides.

B.To check the best time to observe experimental results.

C.To call for the toughest ban on the chemicals.

D.To recommend measures to improve the quality of pesticides.

22、Some hearing loss is a common — and nearly unavoidable — effect of aging. A third of people aged 60 and older have lost some of their ability to hear.

But some research suggests a habit that might help offset the effect of aging on hearing. A study found that among middle-aged adults, being a lifelong musician was connected with better hearing later in life.

“The instrument you play does not seem to be important here,” says Nina Kraus, a biologist. “It is really the act of engagement playing the instrument that matters.”

Participants in the study were between ages 45 and 65. Researchers tested 18 musicians who had been playing an instrument since age nine or younger, and 19 non-musicians who had less than three years of music training.

The musicians had statistically better auditory memory scores and tested better at hearing speech in noisy environments. They also showed better auditory processing abilities, which relate to how people interpret speech sounds.

However, the two groups tied when researchers tested visual working memory skills. “It isn’t as though musical training has a volume knob effect that makes all kinds of sensory processing enhanced in the same manner,” Kraus says. “It focuses on auditory skill.”

The latest findings follow earlier research from Kraus that showed musician in a younger age group had better hearing skills. At the same time, some research has shown that musicians who play in large ensembles (合奏) may face an occupational risk when it comes to their hearing.

Does this effect apply to the guy who plays in a community band one night a week? Kraus says no. To be included in the study, musicians were required to have engaged in musical activities-practicing, teaching or performing-at least three times a week.

“What we do with our time and how we engage our senses and our thinking seems to really shape the people we become in very basic ways — in ways that affect how our series work,” she says.

And, Kraus says, a person doesn’t need to be an Itzhak Perlman or a Yo-Yo Ma to experience the effects. Talent, she says, isn’t a factor.

Kraus says that more research needs to be done to see whether receiving music instruction later in life might have the same benefits.

【1】Your hearing will be improved by ________.

A．what kind of instrument you play

B．what sort of music you play

C．whether you involve yourself with playing the instrument

D．how long you have learned music playing

【2】A musician is not better than others in ________.

A．getting better auditory memory scored

B．hearing speech in noisy environments

C．interpreting speech sounds

D．processing visual work memory

A．the danger of hearing loss

B．the possibility of losing a job

C．the trouble of playing music

D．the harm of hearing skills

【4】It can be inferred Perlman and Yo-Yo Ma are the names of ________.

A．instruments

B．musicians

C．songs

D．music

【5】The main idea of the text is about ________.

A．enjoying music will do good to your health

B．learning music may promote your hearing skills

C．playing an instrument may help preserve hearing

D．listening to music can prevent you from aging

23、There has been an outpouring of love for a 23-year-old disabled woman whose dog was killed in front of her while a groomer(美容师) tried to trim(修剪) its claws.

Calls and e-mails came from as far away as the Upper Peninsula and Arizona as well as Oakland and Macomb counties, offering Laurie Crouch, who uses a wheelchair because of multiple sclerosis(硬化症), everything from dogs to money, such as that from Jason Daly of Roseville who said, “ I would like to buy her a new dog.”

A story about the death of Crouch’s pet, Gooch, was printed on the front page of Macomb Daily. Crouch said a man sat on the dog to trim its nails. Gooch died after one claw was trimmed.

Crouch yelled at the groomer to stop when she saw Gooch was struggling to breathe, but she said she was ignored. “If I could have walked, I would have put my hands on her and pulled her off my dog and physically stopped her, but I can’t do that.” Gooch was not a trained service animal, but naturally helped Crouch by picking up things for her.

“This case is absolute animal abuse(虐待),” Larry Obrecht, division manager of the Oakland County Animal Shelter in Auburn Hills, said.

People who read the story contacted Oakland Press to offer help. A message, from Rebecca Amett of Giggles N Wiggles Puppy Rescue, in Roseville, said, “We have puppies to donate … and want to help the young woman who lost her service dog.”

“When Gooch was with me, I was happy,” Crouch said, “I think I can be happy again but no animal can replace Gooch. There’s never going to be another Gooch out there but I think I will find a dog that can bring me joy again.”

【1】What does the passage mainly tell us?

A. A disabled woman’s service dog.

B. A cruel groomer killed a disabled woman’s dog.

C. People’s love for a disabled woman who lost her dog.

D. Disabled woman loves to have the dog as company.

【2】People called and emailed to .

A. offer help and care to Laurie Crouch.

B. give their angry voice to the groomer.

C. offer a cure for Crouch’s disease.

D. tell Crouch how to punish the groomer.

【3】We can infer from the passage that .

A. Crouch refused to take another dog.

B. Crouch must be sad after losing her dog.

C. Crouch has accepted another dog from a stranger.

D. Crouch can live well without a dog’s company.

24、   I grew up in a middle-class household in Australia. In terms of safety and standard of living，a comfortable lifestyle is all I ever knew，and as a result，I was not aware just how lucky I was.

It was a Monday，and a teacher told us about an oversea mission trip to Cambodia. I had never been overseas before，and I knew absolutely nothing about Cambodia，but something inside of me knew l needed to go on this trip.

I spent the next few months working on S7. 25 hourly wage at an awful fast food chain，saving every penny I earned. Just days before the trip was set to depart，I managed to hit my target.

I will never forget the moment I nervously stepped off the plane in Cambodia. I vividly recall the sight of malnourished （营养不良）children begging for money tearing at my heart. I saw what true poverty looked like as we went to hand food packages out at a massive garbage dump in the city，home to thousands of families，many of whom were forced to seek for food among the rubbish.

On the following days，I played with children who，despite living in hard conditions, were overflowing with joy and happiness. I met families who，despite having nothing，were some of the kindest people I'd ever met. For the first time，my eyes were opened to the reality that happiness is not defined by money. People here were rich in relationships and community，and shared with each other the little that they had.

Through the trip，I began to see the value of learning from people of other races，cultures and religions. I finally saw that there was a much bigger world outside of my little one，and experienced first-hand the beauty of human diversity.

【1】How did the author react when hearing about the overseas mission trip?

A. she considered it a little bit risky.

B. She really looked forward to taking it.

C. She hesitated in the first place.

D. She imagined a lot about Cambodia.

A. Upset B. Bored

C. Moved D. Inspired

【3】What did the author think of the locals after getting along with them?

A. They considered wealth very important.

B. They were poor but had their simple pleasure

C. They struggled very hard to become rich.

D. They were really bad at building relationships.

【4】What was the biggest benefit the author got from the trip?

A. She got some work experience.

B. She learnt to be independent.

C. She made friends with some locals.

D. She learned about the outside world.
