You may ask how they can control their arms without catching themselves. Don't worry, octopuses take it as a piece of cake with the help of a chemical (化学物质) on their skin. Scientists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Palestine, found that an octopus' arms have nervous(神经的)systems that can control movement without contacting the octopus’brain. That's why their arms can live on to catch food for about an hour after being cut off from the body. Scientists watched an octopus and one of its cut-off arms in a pool.There was also another cut-off arm that has been skinned in the pool. Scientists found that the cut-off arm didn't touch the live octopus.It caught the skinned arm. Clearly, something about octopus skin was protecting the arms from one another. To test the idea, scientists offered food with chemicals of octopus skin and fish skin.They found that the octopus' arms again didn't touch the skin. Their grasp on the food with chemicals of octopus skin was 20 times weaker than the grasp on the food with fish skin chemicals. The chemicals used by octopus skin helped the animal self-recognize(自我认知)their arms. “Self-recognition is common in nature,” Guy Levy, the lead scientist told Live Science, “Immune cells(免粒细胞), for example, must differentiate between body cells and invaders. But the amazing thing about the octopus is that the animals use chemical recognition to control their action." The findings could help build a robotic octopus arm in surgery, because of the arms' amazing flexibility(灵活性). ( )11. Octopuses can control their arms without catching themselves, because . A. their eight arms can control each other B. eating cake gives them the ability C. they have a special chemical in their brain D. nervous systems on their arms can control movement ( )12. From the article, we learn the following EXCEPT . A. an octopus' arms can live for a while after being cut off from the body B. the cut-off arms were not from the octopus in the test C. the cut-off arm didn't catch the live octopus D. the cut-off arm caught the skinned cut-off arm ( )13. The underlined word "grasp" in Paragraph 5 means . A. 抓取 B.逃避 C. 抛掉 D. 黏住 ( )14. Why did the scientists offer food with chemicals of octopus skin and fish skin? A. To test whether octopuses like to eat fish. B. To test whether there were special chemicals on octopus skin. C. To test whether octopuses can recognize other animals. D. To test how important an arm is for octopuses. ( )15. Who will probably benefit(获益) the most from the findings about octopuses？ A. Scientists. B. Teachers. C. Nurses. D. Patients. 三、任务型阅读 王瑶打算去参观伦敦国家大剧院并观看演出。以下是她问的五个关于有关剧院的问题(1—5)，请从剧院信息栏A一F六条信息中找出相应的内容回答她的问题(其中一项为多余项)。 1. Where is the National Theatre? 2. When is the theatre open? 3. What can I do at the theatre? 4.
