15、o have similar shape-recognition abilities to a human two-year-old. Though not known to use tools in the wild, the birds have proved skilful at tool use while kept in the cage. In a recent experiment, cockatoos were presented with a box with a nut inside it. The clear front of the box had a “keyhole
16、” in a geometric shape, and the birds were given five differently shaped “keys” to choose from. Inserting the correct “key” would let out the nut.In humans, babies can put a round shape in a round hole from around one year of age, but it will be another year before they are able to do the same with
17、less symmetrical (对称的) shapes. This ability to recognize that a shape will need to be turned in a specific direction before it will fit is called an “allocentric frame of reference”. In the experiment, Goffins cockatoos were able to select the right tool for the job, in most cases, by visual recogni
18、tion alone. Where trial-and-error was used, the cockatoos did better than monkeys in similar tests. This indicates that Goffins cockatoos do indeed possess an allocentric frame of reference when moving objects in space, similar to two-year-old babies.The next step, according to the researchers, is t
19、o try and work out whether the cockatoos rely entirely on visual clues (线索), or also use a sense of touch in making their shape selections.24How did the cockatoos get the nut from the box in the experiment?ABy following instructions.BBy using a tool.CBy turning the box around.DBy removing the lid.25
20、Which task can human one-year-olds most likely complete according to the text?AUsing a key to unlock a door.BTelling parrots from other birds.CPutting a ball into a round hole.DGrouping toys of different shapes.26What does the follow-up test aim to find out about the cockatoos?AHow far they are able
21、 to see.BHow they track moving objects.CWhether they are smarter than monkeys.DWhether they use a sense of touch in the test.27Which can be a suitable title for the text?ACockatoos: Quick Error CheckersBCockatoos: Independent LearnersCCockatoos: Clever Signal-ReadersDCockatoos: Skillful Shape-Sorter
22、sAs Ginni Bazlinton reached Antarctica, she found herself greeted by a group of little Gentoo penguins (企鹅) longing to say hello. These gentle, lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget.Ever since her childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love
23、 for travel. Throughout her career (职业) as a professional dancer, she toured in the UK, but always longed to explore further. When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the nest, she decided it was time to take the plunge.After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts
24、, Ginni began to travel the world, eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile. And it was in Chile she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost tip of the South American mainland. “I just de
25、cided I wanted to go,” she says. “I had no idea about what Id find there and I wasnt nervous, I just wanted to do it. And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that way.”In March 2008, Ginni boarded a ship with 48 passengers shed never met before, to begin the journey towards Antarctica. “Fr
26、om seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises, the whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an impression on me that no other place has,” Ginni says. “I remember the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at u
27、s. You could still hear the operatic sounds it was making underwater.”The realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest things that hit home to Ginni.28Which of the following best explains “take the plunge” underlined in paragraph 2?ATry challenging thin
28、gs.BTake a degree.CBring back lost memories.DStick to a promise.29What made Ginni decide on the trip to Antarctica?ALovely penguins.BBeautiful scenery.CA discount fare.DA friends invitation.30What does Ginni think about Antarctica after the journey?AIt could be a home for her.BIt should be easily ac
29、cessible.CIt should be well preserved.DIt needs to be fully introduced.31What is the text mainly about?AA childhood dream.BAn unforgettable experience.CSailing around the world.DMeeting animals in Antarctica.Sometime in the early 1960s, a significant thing happened in Sydney, Australia. The city dis
30、covered its harbor. Then, one after another, Sydney discovered lots of things that were just sort of there broad parks, superb beaches, and a culturally diverse population. But it is the harbor that makes the city.Andrew Reynolds, a cheerful fellow in his early 30s, pilots Sydney ferryboats for a li
31、ving. I spent the whole morning shuttling back and forth across the harbor. After our third run Andrew shut down the engine, and we went our separate ways he for a lunch break, I to explore the city.“Ill miss these old boats,” he said as we parted.“How do you mean?” I asked.“Oh, theyre replacing the
32、m with catamarans. Catamarans are faster, but theyre not so elegant, and theyre not fun to pilot. But thats progress, I guess.”Everywhere in Sydney these days, change and progress are the watchwords (口号), and traditions are increasingly rare. Shirley Fitzgerald, the citys official historian, told me
33、 that in its rush to modernity in the 1970s, Sydney swept aside much of its past, including many of its finest buildings. “Sydney is confused about itself,” she said. “We cant seem to make up our minds whether we want a modern city or a traditional one. Its a conflict that we arent getting any bette
34、r at resolving (解决).”On the other hand, being young and old at the same time has its attractions. I considered this when I met a thoughtful young businessman named Anthony. “Many people say that we lack culture in this country,” he told me. “What people forget is that the Italians, when they came to
35、 Australia, brought 2000 years of their culture, the Greeks some 3000 years, and the Chinese more still. Weve got a foundation built on ancient cultures but with a drive and dynamism of a young country. Its a pretty hard combination to beat.”He is right, but I cant help wishing they would keep those
36、 old ferries.32What is the first paragraph mainly about?ASydneys striking architecture.BThe cultural diversity of Sydney.CThe key to Sydneys development.DSydneys tourist attractions in the 1960s.33What can we learn about Andrew Reynolds?AHe goes to work by boat.BHe looks forward to a new life.CHe pi
37、lots catamarans well.DHe is attached to the old ferries.34What does Shirley Fitzgerald think of Sydney?AIt is losing its traditions.BIt should speed up its progress.CIt should expand its population.DIt is becoming more international.35Which statement will the author probably agree with?AA city can b
38、e young and old at the same time.BA city built on ancient cultures is more dynamic.CModernity is usually achieved at the cost of elegance.DCompromise should be made between the local and the foreign.五、七选五Important Things to Know When Dining OutCultural dining etiquette (礼节) might surprise you with s
