This natural biological process is called adaptation. Among the superior characteristics developed through ada

16、ptation are those that may help in getting food or shelter, in providing protection, and in producing and protecting the young. That results in the gradual development of more and more organisms (small living things) that are better fitted to their environments.Each living thing is adapted to its wa

17、y of life in a general way, but each is adapted especially to its own distinct class (kind). A plant, for example, depends upon its roots to fix itself firmly and to absorb water and inorganic chemicals. It depends upon its green leaves for using the sun's energy to make food from inorganic chem

18、icals. These are general adaptations, common to most plants. In addition, there are special adaptations that only certain kinds of plants have.Many animals have adaptations that help them escape from their enemies. Some insects are hidden by their body color or shape, and many look like a leaf or a

19、little branch. The coats of deer are colored to mix with the surroundings. Many animals have the ability to remain completely still when an enemy is near.Organisms have a great variety of ways of adapting. They may adapt in their structure, function and genetics; in their development and production

20、of the young; and in other respects. An organism may create its own environment, as do warm-blooded mammals, which have the ability to adjust body heat exactly to maintain their ideal temperature despite changing weather. Usually adaptations are an advantage, but sometimes an organism is so well ada

21、pted to a particular environment that, if conditions change, it finds it difficult or impossible to readapt to the new conditions.56.

22、xtremely severe conditionsC. become better adapted to the environments than others of their kindD. result in the evolution and production of more intelligent organisms57.In the first paragraph, the word “environments” could best be replaced by _. A. contexts B. surroundings C. neighbors D. enemies58

26、ease to 50 percent, and mental problem will become a major factor behind death and illness in the young worldwide.Deng Xiaohong, the spokesperson for the Beijing municipal health bureau, said rapid social change is one of the reasons behind the rising number of youngsters with psychological problems

27、.If these mental diseases are not addressed on time, occurrence of crime, drug­taking and other dangerous behavior is expected to rise.Experts said mental disease could be caused by many factors, such as the inability to handle interpersonal relations well, unstable emotions and pressure from t

28、he overload of study. A number of experts have also said the one­child policy is another reason leading to poor mental health in the young.Children were said to be too “spoiled” and “selfish” in one­child families. Schools in many cities were reported rolling out measures to help students

29、maintain their mental well­being, Yin Jingmiao, a teacher of the Beijing No.105 Middle School, told China Daily that the school invites psychologists to provide counseling to students three times a month. “Students can be arranged to have 40­minute counseling sessions,” Yin said. The schoo

36、tistic (患孤独症的) children.By helping the kids read or do math, I am not only teaching important skills but also helping them feel like any other kid. There are many wrong ideas about autism.

37、or example, some kids like to draw, and others like to sing.At the school, the kids learn through about 20 activities.

Finally, one day during reading practice, he read nearly 220 words himself！Summer school is also a time for fun. Last s

My father had brought me to this spot in a small town not far from our home in Rome. I wondered why.“Look down, Elsa,” father said. I gathered all my cour

44、age and looked down. I saw the square in the center of the village. And I saw the crossing of twisting, turning streets leading to the square. “See, my dear,” father said gently. “There is more than one way to the square. Life is like that. If you can't get to the place where you want to go by o

45、ne road, try another.”Now I understood why I was there. Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the awful lunches that were served at school. But she refused because she could not believe the lunches were as bad as I said.When I turned to father for help, he would not interfere

46、. Instead, he brought me to this high tower to give me a lesson. By the time we reached home, I had a plan.At school the next day, I secretly poured my luncheon soup into a bottle and brought it home. Then I asked our cook to serve it to mother at dinner. The plan worked perfectly. She swallowed one

47、 spoonful and sputtered(气急败坏地说),“The cook must have gone mad！”Quickly I told what I had done, and mother stated firmly that she would take up the matter of lunches at school the next day！In the years that followed I often remembered the lesson father taught me.

They lead by example and never lose their smile. They change lives. Eileen Madden

52、is one of them. Her students must think she was born with an eraser and a piece of chalk in her hand.“It's a joy to get up early every morning to be the first one here,” says the 55­year­old Holy Ghost School third grade teacher. Madden arrives shortly after 6 a.m. to prepare her class

53、room and work on the school breakfast program.“My family all went to St. Teresa's School,” she says. “I always said, One day, I'm going to come back and get one of those big desks.'”With a watchful eye always on the lookout for “one of those big desks”, Madden returned to St. Teresa afte

54、r graduating from college and taught second grade at the Olney Ville neighborhood elementary school until it was burnt in a fire in 1990 and had to be closed. Madden then went to Holy Ghost School where she started as a second­grade teacher and then moved up one grade level.“I take care of sett

55、ing up and serving breakfast,” she says. “In winter it is still dark when I arrive here.” Madden praises Holy Ghost School Principal Carol Soltys and the school's workers for their continued support. “It's a family,” she says.Her class is small this year with 15 students, including some from the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Haiti, Guatemala, Nigeria and Ghana. Madden admits that she's encouraged by her former students, now grownups, who want their own children to enjoy a similar experience in a safe, good environment. “They tel
