9、, but nobody seemed the least bit concerned.

10、rs. I have completely forgotten what the interior of a bookstore or a movie theater looks like. I live 28sea-hours from Athens, truly in the middle of nowhere.The diner nodded, still taking me seriously. Perhaps he felt a bit embarrassed that he hadnt attended the trade fair.

22、機(jī)”，C選項(xiàng)“新科技和現(xiàn)代生活”和D選項(xiàng)“貝殼手機(jī)和手機(jī)的特點(diǎn)”：是文章的部分內(nèi)容，不足以概括全文，屬于以偏概全。因此A選項(xiàng)正確。5.單選題We all _ your coming to help us.問(wèn)題1選項(xiàng)A.appropriateB.appreciateC.admitD.affect【答案】B【解析】【試題解析】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A選項(xiàng)appropriate“盜用；撥（專款等）”；B選項(xiàng)appreciate“欣賞；感激”；C選項(xiàng)admit“承認(rèn)（不好、不快或?qū)擂蔚氖聦?shí)）”；D選項(xiàng)affect“（感情上）深深打動(dòng)；使悲傷（或憐憫等）”。句意：我們都_你來(lái)幫助我們。根據(jù)語(yǔ)境，這里幫助對(duì)應(yīng)的應(yīng)

24、.翻譯題Parents of wailing babies, take comfort: You are not alone. Chimpanzee babies fuss. Sea gull chicks squawk. Burying beetle larvae tap their parents legs. Throughout the animal kingdom, babies know how to get their parents attention. Exactly why evolution has produced all this fussing, squawking

25、and tapping is a question many biologists are trying to answer.(1) Someday, that answer may shed some light on the mystery of crying in human babies. “It may point researchers in the right direction to find the causes of excessive crying,” said Joseph Soltis, a bioacoustics expert at Disneys Animal

26、Kingdom in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. Soltis published an article on the evolution of crying in the current issue of Behavioral and Brain Sciences.Young animals vary in how much they cry, squawk or otherwise communicate with their parents, and studies with mice, beetles and monkeys show that this va

27、riation is partly based on genes.Some level of crying in humans, of course, is based on gas pains and messy diapers. (2) But as for the genetic contribution, you might expect that natural selection would favor genes for noisier children, since they would get more attention.Before long, however, this

28、 sort of deception may be ruinous. If the signals of offspring became totally unreliable, parents would no longer benefit from paying attention. (3) Some evolutionary biologists have proposed that natural selection should therefore favor so-called honest advertisements.Some biologists have speculate

29、d that these honest advertisements may not just tell a parent which offspring are hungry. They might also show their parent that they are healthy and vigorous and therefore worth some extra investment.The babies of rhesus macaque monkeys cry out to their mothers and tend to cry even more around the

30、time their mothers wean (斷奶) them. The mothers, in response, begin to ignore most of their babies distress calls, since most turn out to be false alarms.“Initially, mothers respond any time an infant cries,” said Dario Maestripieri, a primatologist at the University of Chicago, (4) “But as the cries

31、 increase, they respond less and less. They become more skeptical. So infants start crying less. So they go through these cycles, adjusting their responses.”Kim Bard, a primatologist at the University of Plymouth in England, has spent more than a decade observing chimpanzee babies. “Chimps can cry f

32、or a long time if something terrible is happening to them, but when you pick them up, they stop,” Bard said. “Ive never seen any chimpanzees in the first three months of life be inconsolable.”Maestripieri and other researchers say these evolutionary forces may have also shaped the cries of human bab

33、ies. “All primate infants cry,” Maestripieri said. (5) “Its a very conserved behavior. Its not something humans have evolved on their own.”【答案】1. 有一天，也許這個(gè)答案會(huì)解開(kāi)人類嬰兒哭泣之謎。2. 但說(shuō)到基因方面的原因，你可能會(huì)認(rèn)為自然選擇會(huì)傾向于吵鬧的孩子的基因，因?yàn)樗麄儠?huì)得到更多的關(guān)注。3. 因此，有的進(jìn)化生物學(xué)家提出，自然選擇會(huì)傾向于所謂的誠(chéng)實(shí)宣傳。4. 但隨著叫聲越來(lái)越多，母親的反應(yīng)也越來(lái)越少，因?yàn)樗齻冮_(kāi)始懷疑哭聲的真實(shí)性。所以嬰兒的嗷叫隨之變
