But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in

36、the next street?Scientists say were all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and sugge

37、sts that if we dont use it, we lose it.“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”Jim Martland also emphasizes

38、(强调) that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions: If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing. If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note l

39、andmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route. Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note

40、 any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.Now you need never get lost again!1Scientists believe that .Apeople never lose their sense of directionBsome babies are born with a sense of directionCpeople learn a sense of direction as they grow olderDeverybody

41、owned a sense of direction from birth2What is TRUE of seven-year-old children according to the passage?AThey never have a sense of direction without maps.BThey have a sense of direction and can find their way around.CThey should never be allowed out alone if they lack a sense of direction.DThey can

42、develop a good sense of direction if they are driven around in a car.3If you leave your bike in a strange place, you should .Atie it to a tree so as to stop it from being stolenBremember something easily known on the routeCdraw a map of the route to help remember where it isDstay away from taking th

43、e same route when you come back to it4According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to .Aask policemen for directionsBcount the number of landmarks that you seeCuse walls, streams, and streets to guide yourselfDremember your route by looking out for steps and stairs5Where can you

44、 probably read this passage?AIn the newspaper. BIn an ad.CIn a storybook. DIn a novel (小说).E17、Would it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees can communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation-their young trees?Suzanne Simard, forest ecologist(生态学家) at the Univ

45、ersity of British Columbia, explains how trees are much more complex(复杂的) than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin(达尔文) thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard and her team have made a new discovery and showed just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is

46、 true: trees survive through their group work and support, passing around necessary nutrition(营养) such as nitrogen(氮) and carbon “depending on who needs it”.Nitrogen(氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌) networks.This makes sure that all trees in the forest ecological syst

47、em give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神经元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it influences all.Simard talks about “Mother trees”. These are usually the largest, oldest plants that on which

48、all other trees depend. These “Mother trees” are connected to all the other trees in the forest by this network of fungi, and may manage the resources of the whole trees and plants in the forest. She explains how these trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important resources

49、 to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “Mother trees” without paying attention to these highly complex “tree societies” of the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances to save the whole forest.“We didnt take any notice of it,” Simard says sadly. “Mother tr

50、ees” move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance. If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.1The underlined sentence “the opposite is true” in Paragraph

51、2 probably means that trees .Acompete for survivalBprotect their own wealthCdepend on each otherDprovide support for dying trees2“Mother trees”are very important because they .Alook the largest in size in the forestBpass on nutrition to young treesCbring more wealth to humansDknow more about the “tr

52、ee societies”3The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to(指代) .Ahow “tree societies” workBhow trees grow oldChow forestry industry developsDhow young trees survive4We can learn from the passage that .Atrees arent as complex as we think.BCharles Darwin had the same opinion as Simard.Cif

53、“Mother trees” are cut down, they wont make difference to young trees.Dtrees can share resources with other ones by the underground fungi networks.F18、In some science fiction movies, evil robots refuse to die, no matter how hard people fight back.Now science fiction has become science fact. For the

54、first time, scientists have made a robot that can take a beating and keep on going. Scientists from Cornell University made the robot, which looks like a spider (蜘蛛) with four legs. Until now, even the most advanced robot was almost certain to break down when it was broken. That is because its compu

55、ter inside simply doesnt know how to make the machine work after its shape has changed.To deal with this problem, the scientists put eight motors (发动机) and two sensors (传感器) that read how the machine is working. They all give signals (信号) to the machines software. Using this information, the compute

56、r can then work out the machines shape at any moment.The new technology is a big advance in robot-making, scientists say, and its far from scary. It may someday help scientists create better man-made (人造的) arms and legs and give new freedom to people who losethem. It might also help scientists understand how people and animals work out their own sense of place in space.“It has been difficult to design robots that can work well when the environment changes or when its damaged,” says Olaf Sporns of Indian
