1、Module 5 A Lesson in a Lab (建議用時(shí)：35分鐘).閱讀理解A(2020陜西摸底檢測(cè)) In the story of The Crow and the Pitcher from Aesops Fables, a thirsty crow(烏鴉) drops stones into a narrow jar to raise the low level of water inside so he can take a drink.Now scientists have evidence to back up that story. Crows actually do

2、understand how to make water displacement(排水量) work to their advantage, experiments show. The results suggest that the birds are, at least in some aspects, as smart as firstgraders.Researchers, led by Sarah Jelbert at the University of Cambridge, presented six crows with tubes containing water. Insi

3、de the tubes, a worm or a piece of meat on a piece of wood was floating, just out of reach of the crows. In front of the tubes, the researchers arranged several rubber erasers that would sink, and some plastic objects that would float. The crows found out that they could drop the erasers into the tu

4、bes in order to raise the water level and get their snack.However, the_birds_handled_awkwardly in experiments in which they could choose to drop objects in either a wide tube or a narrow one to get a snack, the researchers said. Dropping objects into a narrow tube would lift the water level by a gre

5、ater amount and put the treat within reach after just two drops; while it took around seven drops to raise the snack to the same level in the wide tube. The crows obviously didnt realize this, and most of them went for the wide tube first.Previous studies showed that chimps and human children can so

6、lve similar tasks. In a 2011 study, chimps and kids found out that they could put water into a tube to reach a peanut that was floating in a small amount of water at the bottom.【解題導(dǎo)語】本文主要介紹了科學(xué)家通過實(shí)驗(yàn)對(duì)烏鴉智商進(jìn)行的研究。1How did the crows get the snack in Sarahs experiment?ABy breaking the tube.BBy dropping in

7、erasers.CBy standing on the wood.DBy removing the wood.B解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句“The crows found out that they could drop the erasers into the tubes in order to raise the water level and get their snack.”可知，烏鴉能夠把橡皮擦扔到管里，使水位升高，然后吃到零食。所以選B項(xiàng)。2What does the author mean by “the birds handled awkwardly” in Para

8、graph 4?AThey were unable to tell different shapes.BThey dropped objects only into narrow tubes.CThey were not aware of the snack at first sight.DThey mostly avoided the easier way to get the snack.D解析：推理判斷題。從第四段可知，實(shí)驗(yàn)中的烏鴉在面對(duì)粗細(xì)不同的管子時(shí)，雖然只需往細(xì)管里投兩次物體就可以夠到零食，而需往粗管里投大約七次物體才能夠到零食，但是烏鴉往往先去粗管那邊，而沒有選擇更容易獲得零食的

9、細(xì)管。由此可推知，畫線部分是說它們通常沒有選擇更容易的方式得到零食。3What does the text mainly focus on?AStories of Aesops Fables.BThe development of crows.CCrows intelligence.DHumananimal communication.C解析：主旨大意題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句“The results suggest that the birds are, at least in some aspects, as smart as firstgraders.”以及下文中的實(shí)驗(yàn)可知，整篇文章都是圍繞

10、烏鴉的智商問題來展開的。4What do we know about crows in the passage?ACrows are almost as clever as firstgraders in some respects.BCrows understand water displacement completely.CChimps and children are much smarter than crows.DThe story of The Crow and the Pitcher lacks evidence.A解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句“The results

11、suggest that the birds are, at least in some aspects, as smart as firstgraders.”可知，烏鴉在一些方面幾乎跟一年級(jí)學(xué)生一樣聰明。B(2020濰坊統(tǒng)一考試)Plants cannot run or hide, so they need other strategies to avoid being eaten. Some curl up their leaves, others produce chemicals to make themselves taste bad if they sense animals dr

12、ooling on them, chewing them up or laying eggs on themall signals of an attack. New research now shows that some flora can feel a planteating animal well before it launches an attack, letting a plant prepare a preemptive(先發(fā)制人的) defense that even works against other pest species.When ecologist John O

13、rrock of the University of WisconsinMadison sprayed snail slimea liquid the animals release as they slide alongonto soil, nearby tomato plants appeared to notice. They increased their levels of an enzyme(酶), which is known to prevent planteating animals. “None of the plants were ever actually attack

14、ed，” Orrock says. “We just gave them cues that suggested an attack was coming, and that was enough to cause big changes in their chemistry.”Initially Orrock found this defense worked against snails; in the latest study, his team measured the slimy warnings impact on another potential threat. The inv

15、estigators found that hungry caterpillars(毛蟲), which usually eat tomato leaves greedily, had no appetite for them after the plants were exposed to snail slime and activated their chemical resistance. This nonspecific defense may be a strategy that benefits the plants by further improving their overa

16、ll possibilities of survival, says Orrock, who reported the results with his colleagues in March in Oecologia.The finding that a snails approach can cause a plant response that affects a different animal made Richard Karban curious, a plant communications expert, who was not involved in the study. “

17、It is significant that the plants are responding before being damaged and that these cues are having such farranging effects，” Karban says. “The research was comprehensive，” he adds, “but he wonders how the tomato plants felt chemicals in snail slime that never actually touched them.”“Thats the mill

18、iondollar question，” Orrock says. He hopes future research will make out the mechanisms that enable plants to sense these relatively distant cues.【解題導(dǎo)語】本文主要介紹了一項(xiàng)新的科學(xué)研究。研究表明植物會(huì)對(duì)外在威脅相當(dāng)警覺，會(huì)自動(dòng)作出反應(yīng)進(jìn)行自我保護(hù)。5John Orrock sprayed a liquid onto soil near tomato plants to _Amake them grow betterBgive them a war

19、ningCkeep planteating animals awayDinform planteating animals of dangerB解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句“We just gave them cues that suggested an attack was coming, and that was enough to cause big changes in their chemistry.”可推知，John Orrock在西紅柿植株附近的泥土上噴灑液體的目的是給予植物一種警告，讓它們能夠產(chǎn)生自我保護(hù)性反應(yīng)，且其與第三段第一句中的“his team measured

20、 the slimy warnings impact on another potential threat”呼應(yīng)，故選B。6Why is the example of caterpillars mentioned in Paragraph 3?ATo introduce another animal.BTo confirm the result of the study.CTo appeal to people to protect animals.DTo analyze different resistance chemicals.B解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第一句“Initially

21、Orrock found this defense worked against snails；in the latest study, his team measured the slimy warnings impact on another potential threat.”可推知，文章中提到毛蟲的例子是為了驗(yàn)證研究的結(jié)果，故選B。7What does Richard Karban really want to know?AHow tomato plants become aware of danger.BWhat the chemicals in the snail slime ar

22、e.CWhether the research is of practical value.DWhat the finding of the research is.A解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句“The research was comprehensive，he adds，but he wonders how the tomato plants felt chemicals in snail slime that never actually touched them.”，并結(jié)合對(duì)最后一段的整體理解可推知，Richard Karban實(shí)際上想了解的是西紅柿植株是如何意識(shí)到危險(xiǎn)的，故選

23、A。8What can be a suitable title for the text?AWatchful PlantsBGreedy AnimalsCA Snails ApproachDA Defense AttackA解析：標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)文章中的關(guān)鍵詞plant，并結(jié)合對(duì)全文的整體理解可推知，本文主要講述的是有關(guān)植物的科學(xué)研究，研究發(fā)現(xiàn)植物有對(duì)外在威脅或攻擊的自我保護(hù)性反應(yīng)，故選A。.完形填空(2020昆明診斷測(cè)試)I received 3 missed calls from a number I didnt recognize today.
