In the ocean, that holds true for cold-blooded predators(掠食者). But warm-blooded pre

11、dators are more diverse toward the poles and noticeably missing from several warm hot spots. Why?John Grady, an ecologist, and his team considered the possibilitywarm-blooded animals need a lot to fuel their metabolism(新陳代謝). Perhaps colder waters are just richer in small fish? But they found that a

12、t higher, colder places, there isnt actually much more food around. Its more that warm-blooded animals are eating a much bigger share of it than their cold-blooded competitors.The real explanation is simple. An animals speed, swiftness, and intelligence depend on its metabolism, which in turn depend

13、s on its temperature. Since birds and mammals can keep heating their bodies in icy conditions, they remain fast and attentive. By contrast, the fish they hunt become slower and duller. At some tipping point of temperature, seals, dolphins, and penguins start outswimming their prey(獵物). They become m

14、ore likely to come upon targets and outpace the cold-blooded predators of their own.In Gradys words, “Warm-bodied predators are favoured where preys are slow, stupid and cold.” Thats why sharks and other predatory fish dominate near the equator, but colder waters are the kingdom of whales and seals.

15、 By keeping food to themselves in the poles, these creatures can then specialize on specific types of prey, which makes them more likely to split into separate species. The killer whales of the North Pacific, for example, include mammal-eating transients and fish-eating, year-round residents.But the

16、 world is changing. Its likely that the surface of the oceans will warm by 2 to 3 within this century. Gradys team estimates that every time the oceans surface warms by 1, populations of sea mammals will fall by 12%, and populations of seals and sea lions will fall by 24%.But “predictions are hard,”

17、 Donna Hauser from the University of Alaska Fairbanks notes. “Polar bears are losers of a warming world, but some populations are still doing well. Some groups of whales have changed the timing of their migrations; others are hunting in deeper, colder waters. These changes might make sea mammals mor

18、e adaptable to changing climates. Maybe they just need to find the places where fish remain slow, stupid and cold.”1、Why are there more types of warm-blooded predators near the poles?ABecause there is more food.BBecause there are fewer enemies.CBecause they are faster and wiser.DBecause they consume

19、 less energy.2、The author mentions the killer whales to show _.Athe benefit of biological evolutionBfood preference of different sea mammalsCthe distinction of specific types of predatorsDthe advantage of constant body temperature3、What is Donna Hausers attitude towards the future of the sea mammals

20、?APositive.BNegative.CNeutral.DSceptical.4、Which is the best title for the passage?AAre the Poles Heaven for Sea Predators?BHow Do Sea Mammals Track Their Prey?CWhy Do the Warm-Blooded Like Food Cold?DIs the World Too Hot for the Warm-Blooded?22（8分）A new program makes finding friends in the school c

21、afeteria a piece of cake. “Sit With Us” helps students who have difficulty finding a place to sit find a welcoming group in the lunchroom. The app allows students to recognize themselves as “ambassadors,” thereby inviting others to join them. Ambassadors can then post “open lunch” events, which sign

22、al to anyone seeking company that theyre invited to join the ambassadors table.Natalie Hampton, a 16-year-old from California, is the designer of Sit With Us; which was posted on September 9. She was inspired to create it after she ate alone her entire seventh grade year. The situation left Hampton

23、feeling vulnerable and made her a target for bullying (欺負(fù)).Hampton, now a junior, is attending a different school and is trying socially. Yet, the memory of sitting alone and being bullied still affects her, especially since she knows her experience isnt an isolated one. Hampton said the reason why

24、she felt an app like this was necessary, is because it prevents kids from being publicly rejected and being considered social outcasts by their classmates. “This way its in secret Its through the phone. No one else has to know,” she explained, “And you know that youre not going to be rejected once y

25、ou get to the table.”When students especially the “cool kids” stand up to builying, it has an important effect. During a 2015-2016 school year, over 50 New Jersey middle schools provided their most socially able students with social media tools and encouragement to deal with it, and saw a reduction

26、in student conflict reports by 30 percent.Hampton said that since she opened the app last week, shes already getting positive responses from her classmates. “People are already posting open lunches at my school,” she told the program. “So Im happy that things are already kicking off with a great sta

29、 a mixed opinion to it.23（8分） When I was a kid in Minnesota, watermelon was a delicacy(美味). One of my fathers buddies, Bernie, was a successful fruit-and-vegetable wholesaler, who operated a warehouse in St. Paul.Every summer, when the first watermelons rolled in, Bernie would call. Dad and I would

30、go to Bernies warehouse and take up our positions. Wed sit on the edge of the dock, feet dangling（搖晃）, and lean over, minimizing the volume of juice we were about to spill on ourselves.Bernie would take his machete（刀）, crack our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. The

31、n wed bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heart - the reddest, juiciest, firmest, most seed-free, most perfect part - and throw away the rest.Bernie was my fathers idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that what my

32、 father admired about Bernies wealth was less its substance than its application. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will n

33、ever be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. Others are rich without ever being more than a paycheck ahead.If you dont take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and chomp into lifes small pleasures, your career is probably overwhelming your life.For many years, I forgot that le

34、sson Id learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could.Well, Ive relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the accomplishments of others and to take pleasure in the day. Thats the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw the rest away.Finally, I

35、am rich.1、Why did the authors father think Bernie was a rich man?ABecause Bernie was a successful businessman.BBecause his father admired Bernies wealth.CBecause Bernie was good at making friends.DBecause Bernie knew how to fully enjoy life.2、What did the author learn from Bernie?ABeing free is what

36、 he pursues.BBeing rich is a state of mind.CA lot of money makes him happy.DHe likes paying all the bills.3、According to the text, what does “the heart of the watermelon” mean to the author?AMaking a lot of money.BHaving more watermelons.CBeing a wholesaler.DEnjoying every day.4、Whats the purpose of

37、 the text?ATo introduce a successful person in business.BTo warn us of the hardships of becoming rich.CTo remind us of the true meaning of richness.DTo give tips on how to work with others.24（8分） The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has issued a recommendation about how much juice children shoul

38、d consume. In general, the recommendations might be less than what you are currently giving your child.An AAP policy statement issued in 2001 recommended no juice for children younger than 6 months of age, 4-6 ounces of juice daily for children aged 1-6, and 8-12 ounces for children 7 or older.Those

39、 recommendations have now been revised partly due to considerable concern about increasing weight and teeth problems.The new AAP recommendation is that fruit juice should not be provided at all to children under I year of age, instead; water and cows milk are preferred as primary liquid sources for

40、children after weaning (斷奶).The new recommendations also lower the amount of juice for older children. Children aged 1-3 can have 4 ounces of 100% juice daily, children aged 4-6 4 to 6 ounces, and children 7 or older 8 ounces.The AAP says there is no role for juice during the first year of life, and

41、 that expensive juice products designed specially for infants (new-born babies) are not of value. They note that juice should not be given as a means of soothing an upset child.This doesnt mean that the AAP is against fruit. In fact, they recommend that whole fruit be provided and encouraged for chi

42、ldren.One big advantage of whole fruit is that whole fruit contains fiber. It also contains some protein.Children aged 4-6 should be offered fruit that has a lot of fiber, such as apples, pears, berries, or oranges. They can also have juice that has fiber in it. Children 7 and older should get a tot

43、al of 2 to 2 1/2 servings of fruit per day.1、Which of the following words can replace “soothing” in paragraph 6?AAnnoying.BCalming.CRefreshing.DTeasing.2、What may account for the AAPs issuing the new recommendation?APeoples health is put at risk from taking too much juice.BJuice products are proved

44、of little value.CWhole fruit is gaining popularity among kids.DNone of the above.3、We know from the passage that _.Awater and cows milk are a better choice for infants health than juice.Bjuice contains more nutrients necessary for health than whole fruit.Cthe more expensive juice products are, the m

45、ore value they have.Dthe earlier children take juice in their first year, the healthier theyll become.4、What is the passage mainly about?AAdvantages of whole fruit over juice.BHarm done to children who take juiceCThe amout of juice children can takeDThe time when children can take juice.25（10分）Statu
