Octopuses (章鱼) have more hearts than other animals. Two of the hearts work only to move blood to their gills (鳃). The third heart put blood into the other parts of body. When an octopus swims, the third heart stops working. Hummingbirds (蜂鸟) are the only birds that can fly backwards. Why is that? Most birds move their wings (翅膀) upwards (向上) and downwards. But Hummingbirds’ wings beat backwards and forward. The birds are only 2 to 3 centimeters in size and they can beat their wings about 8 to 200 times a second. Elephants are the only mammals (哺乳动物) that can’t jump. The bones in their legs are all pointed downwards, so they don’t have the “spring (弹簧)” to help them jump off the ground. Elephants always live in groups to protect themselves. 1. Which animal has three hearts? A. The octopus. B. The hummingbird. C. The elephant. D. The bird. 2. Hummingbirds can beat their wings about ____________ times a second. A. 2—3 B. 2—8 C. 3—8 D. 8—200 3. Elephants can’t jump because ________. A. the bones in their legs are springs. B. the bones in their legs are very heavy. C. the bones in their legs are pointed downwards. D. the bones in their legs are too short. 4. Which part of the magazine can this article be found in? A. The fashion part. B. The sports part. C. The animal part. D. The technology part. 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. C 4. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过列举章鱼、蜂鸟和大象的有趣事实 (如章鱼有三颗心脏、蜂鸟能倒着飞、大象不会跳等)，向读者介绍了这些动物的独特之处。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Octopuses have more hearts than other animals...

The hydraulic system uses pressure and liquids (液体) to move things, and it has allowed Atlas to walk and jump. The next Atlas models will be all-electric. “We made the electric Atlas be stronger and more skillful,” the company said.

Some have been able to jump high, while others have been able to throw heavy things around. To show the new robot, Boston Dynamics made a video. In the video, Atlas first lay on the floor. Then it was made to stand up quickly, just like human beings. Atlas is provided with Boston Dynamics’s latest artificial intelligence (AI). AI is the name given to a computer system that is able to “think” for itself and do things like human beings. Boston Dynamics plans to get Atlas doing boring, dirty and even dangerous jobs. “We’re excited to show what Atlas can really do in the lab, in the factory, and in our lives,” the company said. 9.

Octopuses (章鱼) have more hearts than other animals. Two of the hearts work only to move blood to their gills (鳃). The third heart put blood into the other parts of body. When an octopus swims, the third heart stops working. Hummingbirds (蜂鸟) are the only birds that can fly backwards. Why is that? Most birds move their wings (翅膀) upwards (向上) and downwards. But Hummingbirds’ wings beat backwards and forward. The birds are only 2 to 3 centimeters in size and they can beat their wings about 8 to 200 times a second. Elephants are the only mammals (哺乳动物) that can’t jump. The bones in their legs are all pointed downwards, so they don’t have the “spring (弹簧)” to help them jump off the ground. Elephants always live in groups to protect themselves. 1 Which animal has three hearts? A. The octopus. B. The hummingbird. C. The elephant. D. The bird. 2. Hummingbirds can beat their wings about ____________ times a second. A. 2—3 B. 2—8 C. 3—8 D. 8—200 3. Elephants can’t jump because ________. A. the bones in their legs are springs. B. the bones in their legs are very heavy. C. the bones in their legs are pointed downwards. D. the bones in their legs are too short. 4. Which part of the magazine can this article be found in? A. The fashion part. B. The sports part. C. The animal part. D. The technology part. B Do you want to travel around the world? Trevor Baylis, from Paris, France, finished travelling to every country in the world at the age of 20. Trevor Baylis comes from a travelling family. Her mother always took Trevor Baylis with her on all of her travels. Trevor Baylis has already visited 65 countries. That made her want to visit the rest of the world. In May 2018, Trevor Baylis began a trip to visit all 180 countries in the world. Two years later, she finished it. Trevor Baylis used planes, boats and trains to get around. But she liked to travel by train most. “Travelling on trains is slow travel. I can watch the changing views from the window.” she said. For Trevor Baylis, there’s nothing better than travelling. Even in the hard times, she never thought of giving up. “I’m lucky I made it at last. I felt tired, but it was still an exciting trip. I experienced nothing but love and kindness from the people I met.” she said. “And I learnt a lot about the world. The world would be so boring if everything were the same everywhere. The differences make her discover new cultures.” Trevor Baylis hopes others, especially women and young people, can go out and see the world. Her biggest goal is to push people’s limits (极限) as much as possible, no matter how big or small they may be. We live in such a big and beautiful world.

Then it was made to stand up quickly, just like human beings. Atlas is provided with Boston Dynamics’s latest artificial intelligence (AI). AI is the name given to a computer system that is able to “think” for itself and do things like human beings. Boston Dynamics plans to get Atlas doing boring, dirty and even dangerous jobs. “We’re excited to show what Atlas can really do in the lab, in the factory, and in our lives,” the company said. 9.
