The lions will think their i

10、nten ded prey has seen them and will give up, since they ve lost theiCow , which is actually not aselement of surprise.This psychological trickery has been calledstrange as it sounds. The eye-like patterns on butterfly wings are known to preventpreying birds and woodcutters in Indian forests wear ma

11、sks on the backs of their heads when working to discourage hungry tigers.The inspiration for the iCow strategy came while Jordan was based in a villagein Botswana, when two lionesses were killed by local farme rs to revenge their cattle s death. The African lion is a vulnerable species, with numbers

12、 dropping from over100,000 in the 1990s to about 30,000 today. Much of that decline is due to these kinds of revengeful killings because farmers have no effective strategies for protecting their herds.Lions are hunters that like to attack by surprise. They move slowly, quietlyand carefully to their

13、prey, get close and jump on them unseen,“ he said. WhenJordan was watching a lion follow an antelope one day, he noticed the lion gave up the hunt once the antelope spotted it.So he joined one of the local farmers on a 10-week trial study, painting eyes on one-third of a herd of 62 cattle. When the

14、cattle returned each night, they tooka head count to see how many had survived. Only three cows were killed by lions duringthis period-all without the painted eyes on their behinds. And all the painted cowssurvived. However, Jordan warned that so far this is just a promising idea. He isnow back in B

16、g, lions like to . A. give up halfwayC. chase their prey steadilyattacksWhat can be inferred from the passage?The iCow strategy is likely to bring great benefit.In the 10-week trial study more cattle were killed.The farmers will take their revenge on more lions.Neil got inspiration from patterns on

17、butterfly wings.BConformity involves changing your behaviour to“fit in or go along” withthe people around you. In some cases, this social influence might involve agreeing with or acting like the majority of people in a specific group, or involve behaving in a particular way to be viewed as“normal by

18、 the group. Actually, conformityis something that happens re gularly in our social world. Sometimes we re aware of our behaviour, but in many cases it happens without much thought or awareness on our parts. And even in some cases we go along with things we disagree with or behave in ways we know we

19、shouldn t.There are countless examples of conformity in life. For instance, a teenager dresses in a certain style because he wants to fit in with the rest of the teenagers in his social group. A woman reads a book for her book club and really enjoys it. Whenshe attends her book club meeting, the oth

20、er members all dislike the book. Rather than go against the group opinion, she simply agrees with the others that the book is terrible.Why do we conform? In many cases, looking to the rest of the group for clues for how we should behave can actually be helpful. Others might have greater knowledge or

21、 experience than we do, so following their lead can actually be instructive. And in some cases, we conform to the expectations of the group to avoid looking foolish. This tendency can become especially strong in situations where we aren t quite sure how to act. Additionally, there are some situation

22、s where we conform just in order to avoid punishments or gain rewards.There are many factors that influence conformity. For example, not knowing howto perform a difficult task makes people more likely to conform. Personal characteristics such as motivation to achieve and strong leadership abilities

23、are linked with a decreased tendency to conform. And people are more likely to conform in situations that involve between three and five other people.What can we learn about conformity from the first paragraph?Actually it is rare for us to conform.Blind conformity should be criticized.Sometimes peop

24、le tend to conform unconsciously.Conformity means changing your behaviour reluctantly.Which of the following is a case of conformity?Joining a certain organization.Following the ongoing fashion.Sharing something personal with others.Giving up your creative ideas cautiously.When are we most likely to

25、 conform according to the text?A. When we are at a loss.B. When we are rejected.C. When we feel threatened.D. Whenwe feel uncomfortable.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?Conformity cannot be avoided by anyone.Conformity is linked to the size of the group.Conformity is a natural response t

26、o challenges.Conformity isn t related to individual differences.COver a decade ago, scientists already recognized the potential smart cloths with sensors （傳感器）could improve well-being. Nowadays the industry is starting to target specific health conditions. One example is diabetes. Now, Siren Care ha

27、s developed an injury-detecting sock that could help people with diabetes prevent disability.Early detection is important in this process. Since skin ulcers （潰瘍）are accompanied by a rise in temperature, studies show that detecting foot skin temperature at home could significantly reduce skin ulcers.

28、 Based on this, Siren produced a sock that can measure foot temperature in real time.What s special about Siren s product is that the sensors exist in the fabric of the sock. The product is powered by“SirenSmart” , a kind of electronic yarn （ 紗線）.They weave the yarn into a sock using ordinary weavin

29、g machines and connect the final product to a PCBbattery, whose lifetime is two months if used daily. The socksare only on when they re worn ; they go into sleep mode when off.All data from the socks is sent to the Siren app using Bluetooth technology, so the user can know the condition of his/her f

30、eet in real time. The application gives foot health scores and, when necessary, warns the user to adjust activity or see a healthcare professional.Ran Ma, the company s CEO, explains the sock can tell the user when to see adoctor. The socks are machine-washable, and don t need to be charged. Every s

31、ix months, the user gets a new box with seven pairs of socks to replace the used ones.Siren presented their product this year in Las Vegas and announced tha t they re planning to start shipping their socks this summer. More excitingly, Siren is already planning future applications that will go beyon

32、d diabetes care. Anyway, as smart clothing becomes accessible, you ll begin to see this health technology become morecommon.28. What does the underlined wordthis in Paragraph 1 refer to?B. The problem with skins.D. The importance of earlyA. The result of the study.C. The cause of skin ulcers.detecti

33、on.What can we learn about Siren s smart s ock from the second paragraph?A. It can be charged.B. It is sensitive to skins.C. Its sensors can be seen.D. It is comfortable to wear.What should be the function of the smart sock?It cures its user of possible illness.It informs its user of his/her foot he

34、alth.It assists its user to make a quicker recovery.It tests its user s physical strength in real time.What does the author think of the smart clothing industry?A. It has a bright future.B. It is a profitableindustry.C. It is readily available.D. It has widely applied.DScientists have found living o

35、rganisms trapped in crystals （晶體）that could be50,000 years old.The organisms were found in a hot, but beautiful cave system in Naica, Mexico.These ancient life forms can be seen only with a microscope. Penelope Boston, wholeads the Astrobiology Institute at NASA, the space agency of the United State

36、s, says the ancient microbes were able to live by eating minerals such as iron.She spoke about the discovery recently at a meeting of the American Associationfor the Advancement of Science. If the findings are confirmed, they will show howmicrobes can survive in extreme conditions. Forty different k

37、inds of microbes andsome viruses were found in the underground area. The genetic structures of theseorganisms are 10 percent different from those of their nearest relatives.The caves in Naica are 800 kilometers deep. They were once used for mining lead.Before the miners began working in the caves, t

38、he area was separated from the surface and the outside world. Some of the caves are as big as the large religious centersbuilt during Europe s Middle Ages. There are crystals covering the walls. The caves are so hot that scientists must wear special clothing to keep cool. The clothing keeps the crys

39、tals safe from human germs （病菌）or other damage. Boston said the researchers could only work for about 20 minutes at a time before they had to go to a room thatwas 38 degrees Celsius to cool down.NASA officials would not let Boston share her findings with scientific expertsbefore last week s announce

40、ment. So scientists could not say much about the findings.But Norine Noonan, a biologist with the University of South Florida, said she believed them. Why are we surprised? ” Noonan asked. As a biologist, I would say life on earth is extremely tough and extremely colorful.”Boston is also studying mi

41、crobes commonly found inside caves in other countries, such as Ukraine and the United States. These microbes appear to be impossible to kill. Boston said they show how difficult life on earth can be.The existence of the ancient microbes relies on . D. absorbing airA. surrounding insectsB. eating min

42、eralsC. diverse plantsWhat can we infer about the caves in Naica from the passage?The walls were built during Middle Ages.The temperature in the caves is quite low.The environment in the caves is difficult to adapt to.The caves have been explored since they were formed.What is the biologist Norine N

43、oonan s attitude towards the findings?A. Neutral.B. Doubtful.C. Positive.D. Indifferent.What s the main idea of the passage?Living organisms bring hope to scientific research.Caves provide living environment for living organisms.Microbes show great power to survive in terrible conditions.Scientists

45、 downed cookie after cookie while preparing for a big test? But when done a lot especially without realizing it emotional eating can affect weight, health and overall well-being.Not many of us make the connection between eating and our feelings. 37 One of the biggest myths about emotional eating is

46、that it s caused by negative feelings. Yes, people often turn to food when they re stressed out, lonely, sad, anxious or bored. But emotional eating can be linked to positive feelings too,like the romanceof sharing dessert on Valentine s Day or the celebrationof a holiday feast.Sometimesemotional ea

47、ting is tied to major life events, like a death or a divorce. 38 Emotional eating patterns can be learned:A child who is given candy after a bigachievement may grow up using candy as a reward for a job well done. 39 It s noteasy to “unlearn patterns of emotional eating. But it is possible. And it st

48、artswith an awareness of what s going on.We re all emotional eaters to a degree. But for some people emotional eatingcan be a real problem, causing serious weight gain or other problems. One trouble with emotional eating is that once the pleasure of eating is gone, the feelings that cause it remain.

49、 40 That s why it helps to know the difference between physicalhunger and emotional hunger. Next time you reach for a snack, wait and think about which type of hunger is driving it.Believe it or not, we ve all been there.If a crying boy gets some cookies, he may link cookies with comfort.One study f

50、ound that people who eat food like pizza become happy afterwards.And you often may feel worse about eating the amount or type of food you like.But understanding what drives emotional eating can help people take steps to change it.Boys seem to prefer hot? homemadecomfort meals, while girls go for cho

51、colate and ice cream.More often, though, it s the countless little daily stresses that cause someone to seek comfort in food.第三部分語言知識運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，滿分 45分）第一節(jié)（共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分） 閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。About 30 years ago, Marie Roth taught a painting class.
