So he sat down and watched as the butterfly struggled to force its body through the little hole.However， minutes passed and the butterfly still couldn’t get out.The struggle was too hard for its weak body.The man then kindly enlarged the hole in the pupa so that the butterfly could finally break free.But instead of flying away， it just dragged itself around weakly， then died.The struggle to break out of the pupa was necessary for the butterfly’s survival because it enabled its wings and body to grow strong.Without the struggle， it was too weak to live. 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） In the same way， we need struggle to grow strong and survive.We must go through some difficult things if we really wish to spread our wings and fly. 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） Step 2　析写作手法 A suitable title for the story 选取一个与自然界相关的富有哲理寓意的主题，并为故事拟定了一个 贴合文意的标题。 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） Para.1：The background， plot and ending of the story 首段第二句中使用了动词-ing短语Seeing an opening in the pupa作状 语，使句子表达简洁；第三句中使用了as引导的时间状语从句；第六 句中使用了so that引导的目的状语从句，这些从句的使用使表达富于 变化。本段中还多处使用了衔接词，如so， however， but等，使语言 连贯，过渡自然，衔接紧密。 Para.2：What lessons we can learn from the story 文中使用了隐喻的修辞手法，将蝴蝶破茧挣扎的过程与人的成长过程 进行比较，实际上是为了给读者启示：成长的过程需要个人努力奋 斗，同时也要尊重自然规律。 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） Step 3　背出彩佳句 1.

tell the difference between odd and even numbers.Before this， humans were the only animals known to have this ability. 　　In 2018， researchers in Australia discovered that bees could understand the idea of “zero”.The researchers were perplexed， since only a few animals， like dolphins， monkeys， and some birds， had shown that they understood zero.Later， the same scientists showed that bees could be trained to add and subtract （减）. 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 　　In the study， researchers divided honeybees into two control groups.They showed bees cards containing printed shapes that numbered from one to ten.One group was trained to fly to even-numbered cards， which earned them a sugar water treat if they successfully completed the task.If they flew to an odd-numbered card， they received a sour liquid.The second group had a similar approach， but the numbers were reversed （相反的）.An odd card would earn them a sweet treat and an even card would give them a sour liquid.Researchers continued this lesson until the bees succeeded at least 80% of the time. 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 　　Then， they added a new challenge.They had the bees choose between cards with 11 and 12 shapes on them.The bees had never seen these numbers in their training.Even so， they succeeded 70% of the time. 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 　　The reason for this study is that the scientists believe that studying bee brains might help us learn how to build better and faster computers.After all， a bee’s brain is about 86，000 times smaller than a human brain.How does it handle such complicated ideas？ Unless the brain structures for processing numbers aren’t so complicated.Then， the scientists built an extremely simple computer system with just five connections called neurons （神经元）， and they were able to train it to tell the difference between even and odd numbers up to 40. 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。科学家已经证明蜜蜂有一些惊人的 数学技能。现在，一项新的研究表明，蜜蜂甚至可以通过训练来区 分奇数和偶数。科学家们认为研究蜜蜂的大脑可能有助于我们学习 如何构建更好、更快的计算机。 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。科学家已经证明蜜蜂有一些惊人的 数学技能。现在，一项新的研究表明，蜜蜂甚至可以通过训练来区 分奇数和偶数。科学家们认为研究蜜蜂的大脑可能有助于我们学习 如何构建更好、更快的计算机。 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 1. What does the underlined word “perplexed” in Paragraph 2 mean？ （　　） A. Tolerant. B. Creative. C. Puzzled. D. Discouraged. 解析： 　词义猜测题。上文说“澳大利亚的研究者在2018年发现 蜜蜂能理解‘零’的概念”，下文说“因为只有一些哺乳动物，像 海豚、猴子和一些鸟类，已经表明它们理解‘零’”。由此可知， 此处为研究人员对于这一现象感到困惑。故可猜测，画线单词 perplexed为“困惑的”意思，与puzzled意思一致。 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 2. How did the bees get their reward in the study？（　　） A. By mixing the two drinks. B. By drawing the right shapes. C. By removing correct numbers. D. By landing on specified cards. 解析： 　细节理解题。根据第三段中的One group was trained to fly to even-numbered cards， which earned them a sugar water treat if they successfully completed the task.可知，在这项研究中，蜜蜂通 过降落在指定的卡片上得到奖励。 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 3. What is the final goal of this study？（　　） A. Finding potential technology innovations. B. Teaching bees different means of learning. C. Speeding the learning behavior of humans. D. Training bees to serve mankind more easily. 解析： 　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的The reason for this study is that the scientists believe that studying bee brains might help us learn how to build better and faster computers.可推知，这项研究的最终目 的是寻找潜在的技术创新。 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 4. What is the best title for the text？（　　） A. Bees Calculate Numbers like Humans B. Scientists Train Bees to Count Numbers C. Odds and Evens Are Significant to Bees D. Bees Can Learn Odd and Even Numbers 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 解析： 　标题归纳题。文章主要讲述了科学家已经证明蜜蜂有一 些惊人的数学技能。现在，一项新的研究表明，蜜蜂甚至可以通过 训练来区分奇数和偶数。科学家们认为研究蜜蜂的大脑可能有助于 我们学习如何构建更好、更快的计算机。因此D项（蜜蜂可以学习 奇数和偶数）为文章最佳标题。 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） Ⅱ.完形填空 　　（2024·广东湛江高二上期末）In November 2020， a polar bear named Suka gave birth to several little ones， including Laerke.Laerke and her brothers and sisters were the first polar bears successfully born and  　5　 in the Detroit Zoo since 2004. 　　Days after her  　6　， Laerke became significantly inactive and appeared increasingly  　7　.She was sent off to the zoo’s health complex for  　8　， but by the time she returned home， her mom no longer  　9　Laerke as her cub （小熊）. 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 　　Without having any other polar bear who would  　10　 her， she would have to go without a  　11　， or so they thought. 　12　， that’s right when Jebbie needed a new home！ Jebbie， the baby grizzly bear was  　13　 all by himself helplessly in Tok， Alaska， when he was  　14　 and taken to the Detroit Zoo， where he and Laerke had been gradually getting to know each other. 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 　　After some time， Jebbie and Laerke became best  　15　！ The zookeepers have since posted pictures and videos of them playing， showing just how  　16　 they are.Together， they’re able to wrestle in the grassy tundra （苔原）， splash around in the freshwater or saltwater pools， and play with toys  　17　. 　　“We’re excited that we are able to give Jebbie a home and  　18　 a much-needed friend for Laerke，” said Scott， chief life sciences officer of the Detroit Zoo.“This social development is critically  　19　 for both Laerke and Jebbie.” 目录 英语·选择性必修第三册（WY） 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。底特律动物园成功诞生的北极熊 Laerke因为生病被带去检查后，它的妈妈不再认它，但幸运的是它和 在阿拉斯加被救助的灰熊Jebbie成为好朋友，它们在园中一起玩耍、 成长，这对于两只小熊的社交发展非常重要。 5.
