This annual movement is called migration. They migrate to find food, seek a partner, or in search of warmer weather. One of the most wonderful migrations in nature1 is that of the North American monarch butterfly. 许多动物都会在每年的特定时间从一处迁移到另一处。这种一年一度的行为叫作“迁徙”。动物为了觅食、寻找配偶或温暖的环境而迁徙。自然界最为壮观的迁徙之一就是北美洲黑脉金斑蝶的迁徙。 Every autumn2, millions of these beautiful insects with fine black and orange wings3 begin a long and difficult journey. Somehow they manage to travel around 4，000 kilometres south4 and find their way to California or Mexico5. However, until recently no one knew how6 they did this. 每年秋天，数百万只这种翅膀橙黑相间的美丽昆虫都会开启漫长且艰辛的旅程。它们总是能够完成约 4，000公里的南行旅程，成功到达(美国)加利福尼亚州或墨西哥。然而，直到最近人们才明白它们是如何做到的。 A team of scientists led by Professor Eli Shlizerman at the University of Washington7 has now found the answer. They have found out that8 the monarch is able to tell the time of day. It uses its eyes to measure the position of the sun9. These two pieces of information—the time of day and the point where10 the sun is in the sky—allow the butterfly to determine the way to go11. Eventually, it manages to reach the places where12 it will spend the winter. 一支由伊莱·史莱泽曼教授领导的来自华盛顿大学的科学家团队现已找到了答案。他们发现，黑脉金斑蝶可以判断时间，并能用眼睛测量太阳的位置。这两条信息——一天中的时刻和太阳在天空中的位置——让黑脉金斑蝶能够判定前进方向，最终成功抵达过冬的地点。 The solution to the mystery of the monarch's amazing ability comes at a time when13 it is in serious trouble. Its population has crashed by as much as 90 per cent in the last few years. Sadly, human activity is the main reason why14 the number of monarch butterflies is falling. In many of the places where15 the butterfly can be found, people are destroying the natural environment. They cut down trees and use chemicals that16 kill the plants that17 monarch caterpillars eat. 黑脉金斑蝶这一惊人能力的奥秘被揭开时，这一生物正处于水深火热的生存状态中。其数量在近年内减少了百分之九十之多。不幸的是，人类活动是造成其数量下降的主要原因。在黑脉金斑蝶生存的许多地方，人们正破坏着那里的自然环境。他们砍伐树木，他们所用的化学制剂杀死了黑脉金斑蝶幼虫食用的植物。 The research on the monarch's behaviour18 has however led to a greater awareness of this creature. People have been working together to record its migration and make sure that19 there are enough plants for it to feed on. If20 this works, there may come a time when21 the number of monarch butterflies increases once again. The more we know about this lovely creature, the greater22 the chance it will survive and keep its place in the natural world for a long time to come. 不过，对黑脉金斑蝶行为的研究也使得人们对这种生物有了更多的了解。人们已经在共同努力，记录它的迁徙，并确保它有足够的食物。如果这些努力产生效果，黑脉金斑蝶的数量在未来有可能再次回升。我们对这种迷人的生物了解越多，它们在自然界中得以长久生存并保持其位置的可能性就越大。 1介词短语作后置定语，修饰One of the most wonderful migrations 笔记空间　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　 2时间状语 3介词短语作后置定语，修饰名词insects 4动词不定式短语作宾语 5介词短语作后置定语 6引导宾语从句 7过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰名词scientists 8引导宾语从句 9动词不定式短语作目的状语 10引导定语从句，修饰先行词point 11动词不定式短语作后置定语，修饰名词way 12引导定语从句，修饰先行词places 13引导定语从句，修饰先行词time 14引导定语从句，修饰先行词reason 15引导定语从句，修饰先行词places 16引导定语从句，修饰先行词chemicals 17引导定语从句，修饰先行词plants 18介词短语作后置定语，修饰名词research 19引导宾语从句 20引导条件状语从句 21引导定语从句，修饰先行词time 22表示“……越多，……就越大”，前者表示条件，后者是主句，主句谓语动词通常用一般将来时 笔记空间　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　 阅读领悟 (一)段意连线 (二)高频短语互译 1．in__search__of 寻找，搜索 2．find one's way to 某人找到去……的路；某人设法到达 3．find__out 发现，查明 4．the__solution__to__...__ ……的解决办法 5．cut__down 砍倒 6．lead to 导致 7．make sure 确保 8．feed__on 以……为食 (三)问题链 1．What's the main idea of the passage?

Researchers have tried to find out what the behavior might mean, and they doubt that the gorillas exhibit this behavior not to start fights, but to prevent themselves—and chest­beating could be used to advertise their body size to other gorillas. Scientists observed 25 wild male mountain gorillas for over 3，000 hours. The research team used audio (音频) equipment to record the sound frequency, rate, duration, and amount of chest beats. To determine each gorilla's size, the researchers used cameras to photograph and measure each gorilla's back. Although the rate, duration, and amount of beats did not correlate with the size of the gorillas, sound frequency did, the researchers report. The team also noticed that larger gorillas produced deeper­tone chest drumming. Previous research has shown that a gorilla's larger body size is linked to reproductive success and social rank. The chest­beating could be a way for the gorillas to advertise their size to others and, in turn, avoid fights that could result in serious injury or death. Though gorillas can obviously observe size just by getting a good look at others, the researchers suggest chest－beating is copper­bottomed when trying to communicate through a thick forest. The sounds gorillas created by beating their chests are powerful enough to travel long distance through thick forests and signal others their size and fighting ability. Animal expert Anna Nekaris says it would be interesting to see if smaller gorillas can imitate the deep tones of larger ones in future studies. Nekaris says, “For now, the researchers will continue to study chest­beating to see if the action can pass on other information, such as dominance rank, sex, and individual identity, to nearby gorillas.” 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员对大猩猩拍打胸部的行为进行了观察和研究，认为大猩猩表现出这种行为不是为了打架，而是为了展示自己的体型，从而避免打斗。 1．What is the second paragraph mainly about according to the research？(　　) A．Its findings. B．Its purpose. C．Its samples. D．Its method. 答案：D 解析：段落大意题。根据第二段(科学家对25只野生雄性山地大猩猩进行了3，000多个小时的观察。研究小组使用音频设备记录了拍胸的声音频率、速度、持续时间和次数。为了确定每只大猩猩的体型，研究人员用相机拍摄并测量了每只大猩猩的背部。)可知，本段主要介绍了科学家们开展该研究的具体方法。故选D。 2．Why do some gorillas beat their chests？(　　) A．To declare war on other gorillas. B．To frighten other gorillas away. C．To welcome their companions. D．To celebrate their victory in a fight. 答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The chest­beating ... serious injury or death.”可知，一些大猩猩拍打胸部是为了展示自己的体型，把其他大猩猩吓跑，从而避免可能导致严重受伤或死亡的打斗。故选B。 3．What does Nekaris suggest researchers study in the future？(　　) A．If smaller gorillas can make deep­toned chest drumming. B．If gorillas' chest­beating contains other information. C．If larger gorillas are better at using their body influence. D．If gorillas have other communication skills. 答案：A 解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Animal expert Anna Nekaris ... in future studies.”可知，Nekaris (奈卡里斯)建议研究人员在未来研究体型较小的大猩猩是否能模仿体型较大的大猩猩发出低沉的拍打胸部的声音。故选A。 4．Which section may the passage come from in a newspaper？(　　) A．Health. B．Entertainment. C．Science. D．Sports. 答案：C 解析：推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章围绕一项针对大猩猩拍打胸部的行为的研究展开，介绍了通过长时间的观察和研究，研究人员认为大猩猩表现出这种行为不是为了打架，而是为了展示自己的体型，从而避免打斗。由此可推知，文章主要涉及动物科学领域，可能出自报纸的科学版块。故选C。 Ⅱ　完形填空 A hero sheep dog became the guiding light of hope for three trapped sheep as it swam across dangerous flooded fields to __1__ them to safety.

The scientists are measuring the growth and development of the penguin population on the eastern side of the Antarctic Peninsula. “We are counting penguin nests to understand how many penguins are in a colony, producing young every year, and whether that number is going up or down with the environmental conditions，” said Alex Borowicz. He is an ecology researcher at New York's Stony Brook University. The work is not easy for climate researchers in the icy, faraway reaches of Antarctica. But penguins are easier to follow than some other kinds of animals because they nest on land. Their black bodies and waste droppings can also be identified against the area's white background. Michael Wethington, another researcher from Stony Brook, told Reuters the penguin population can represent overall climate conditions and the health of the area's whole ecosystem. The researchers say counts of individual penguins can be combined with data from satellite images to get a more complete picture of how the animals are progressing. Gentoo penguins—with bright orange beaks and white markings on their heads—prefer open water without broken pieces of ice floating around. So when temperatures on the Antarctic Peninsula began rising during the latter half of the 20th century, Gentoo populations moved south. Gentoo penguins don't like sea ice. They mostly forage (觅食) over the continental shelf and don't go far out to sea. As sea ice has decreased along the western side of the peninsula, Gentoos seem to have got used to the changed conditions. But those same conditions have been worse for the Adelie penguin species. This is because the Adelies depend on sea ice for feeding and reproduction. “When we find Adelie penguins, we typically know that sea ice is nearby，” Stony Brook's Wethington said. He added that whenever researchers see sea ice decreasing or disappearing, they also see Adelie penguin populations plunge. Even though Adelie penguins are increasing in number overall, some populations have fallen by more than 65 percent, researchers say. 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究南极地区气候变化的科学家通过研究企鹅来更好地了解该地区的环境状况。 1．Why do scientists studying climate change in Antarctica study penguins?

But have you ever heard about how a mountain town in North Carolina uses a caterpillar known as the Woolly Worm to make similar predictions? According to the folklore (民间传说), the amount of black on the woolly worm in autumn predicts the severity of the upcoming winter. The longer the woolly worm's black bands (带) are, the longer, colder, snowier, and more severe the winter will be. Similarly, a wider middle brown band is a sign of a milder upcoming winter. The position of the longest dark bands supposedly indicates which part of winter will be coldest or hardest. If the head end of the caterpillar is dark, the beginning of winter will be severe. If the tail end is dark, the end of winter will be cold. In addition, the caterpillar has 13 segments (昆虫的节/段) to its body, which traditional forecasters say correspond to the 13 weeks of winter. Scientific studies on worm forecasting are rare. American Museum of Natural History entomologist Howard Curran conducted a small trial in 1948. Having heard about the caterpillar folklore, Curran headed to Bear Mountain State Park to collect caterpillars each fall for eight years. He found that if the worms had brown markings on more than a third of their body, winters tended to be milder. Most scientists view the folklore of caterpillar predictions as just that, folklore. “It's a wonderful story, but I do think it was a playful trial，” says Joe Boggs, an entomologist at Ohio State University Extension who has studied woolly worms. “Curran was a real scientist. He had tons of papers published, but he never published this one—probably because he knew it wouldn't stand up to peer review.” Mike Peters, an entomologist at the University of Massachusetts, doesn't disagree, but he says there could be a link between the band of a caterpillar and the severity of winter. Peters suggests that the timing of their growth and environmental conditions, such as temperature, moisture levels, and food sources, can impact the appearance of woolly worms, including their size, coloration, and band patterns. By analyzing these characteristics, researchers can potentially infer information about the weather conditions. “The band does say something about a heavy winter，” he says. “The only thing is that it's telling you about the previous year.” 篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了三位科学家对用毛毛虫预测冬天的严寒程度这一民间传说所进行的研究和对其的看法。 1．How do people predict the weather through caterpillars? A．By analyzing their living habits. B．By measuring the change of their size. C．By calculating the number of their segments. D．By studying color bands on their bodies. 答案：D 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The longer ... upcoming winter.(毛毛虫的黑色带越长，冬天就越长、越冷、下雪越多、越严寒。同样，中间褐色带越宽，则预示着即将到来的冬天越温和。)”可知，人们通过研究毛毛虫身体上的色带来预测天气。故选D。 2．What is Howard Curran's finding based on?
