Sequencing ancient proteins involves determining the order of amino acids in a sample.By comparing the sequences with those of living and extinct relatives,the scientists were able to glean information about the evolution of the rhino.The analysis revealed that it diverged from the same group as living rhinos about 41 million to 25 million years ago. Separate research,which sampled fossils from Kenya's Turkana Basin,suggests that biomolecules can survive for millions of years,even in searing,tropical environments.They recovered proteins from five of the fossils,dated 1.5 million to 18 million years ago,and found that even in tropical regions with high temperatures,scientists can extract prehistoric proteins.While the information contained in the Kenyan proteins wasn't as detailed as that found in the Canadian fossil,the authors said that proteins in much older fossils could be discovered. Collins and Saitta detected amino acids in a titanosaur eggshell fragment.Their results were akin to identifying five letters in a novel,revealing only a pattern of decay that showed there were once proteins in the eggshell.Not only are dinosaur fossils far older than the fossils in the two studies,but they mostly date back to a hothouse period in the global climate when there were no ice caps.What's more,on average,dinosaur fossils are buried far deeper and thus have experienced far greater geothermal heat.It's also not clear whether dinosaur teeth had thick enough enamel to preserve proteins. 1.What is special about the 24-million-year-old tooth found in the Canadian Arctic? A.It contains the oldest known DNA. B.It preserves the oldest protein sequence. C.It first created paleoproteomics. D.It helped the exploration of dinosaur fossils. 2.What can comparison of protein sequences tell us? A.Where a species sits in its family tree. B.Where a sample fossil was found. B.How a species evolved or became extinct.D.When a species was discovered. 3.What do fossils from Kenya suggest? A.Proteins study in ancient fossils is promising.B.Temperature is a subtle element in archaeology. C.Fossils discovered in a tropical region are rare.D.Environments have annoyed archaeologists. 4.What is mainly emphasized in the last paragraph? A.Why fossil can reflect protein decay patterns.B.Why dinosaur fossils are rarer than others. C.Why enamel thickness affects fossil study.D.Why proteins study in dinosaur faces a barrier. 134英语·0黑白题高二下 阅读理解+阅读七选五 Saturday Week 10 黑题 +读后续写 一、阅读理解 Hummingbirds are the Olympic gymnasts in the world of birds.They zip around at remarkable speeds,hover in place and fly backward and upside down.To achieve such agility, hummingbirds use distinct modes of visual processing to control different types of flight.In particular,the scientists uncovered a seemingly unique mode that guides hummingbirds'speed when they are flying forward. The findings come from an analysis of over 3,500 hummingbird flights in a 12-foot tunnel with a resting spot at one end and a feeder at the other.Moving patterns projected on the walls dominated the birds'sense of optic flow-the perceived motion of surroundings while travelling. Speed of the motion,pattern velocity,is a key visual cue many animals use to adjust their speed and position as they move. The researchers expected that if the hummingbirds were using pattern velocity cues to control their forward flight speed,they would see the birds speed up or slow down in line with vertical stripes projected on the side walls.But instead "it seemed more the case that they have their own internal speed metre"for forward flight,says study co-author Vikram Baliga. Any movement that challenged the hummingbirds'expectations of how their surroundings should change slowed the birds down.When hovering or moving up or down,however,the birds based their motor commands on the projected patterns they saw. The ability to switch between these different flight modes highlights a hummingbird's unique agility,says Doug Altshuler,a zoologist specializing in complex locomotion.Hummingbird brains have evolved to make rapid transitions from visual signals to motor outputs."They excel at taking in lots of complicated visual information and making a safe flight plan out of that." ⑨ 1.What is the key discovery about hummingbirds'flight control? A.It relies entirely on optic flow. B.It uses distinct visual strategies. C.It navigates by feeder locations. D.It adjusts flight via vertical stripes. 2.Why were moving patterns projected in the tunnel? A.To test light sensitivity. B.To study the role of optic flow. C.To measure maximum speed. D.To observe feeding behaviour. 3.What can be inferred about hummingbirds'forward flight control from Paragraph 3? A.Muscle strength drives their flight. B.Vertical stripes guide their navigation. C.Their speed matches projected patterns.D.Their speed adjustments are self-regulated. 4.According to Altshuler,how do hummingbirds achieve remarkable flight agility? A.By processing visual data efficiently. B.By reacting to visual feedback instantly. C.By following flexible flight routes. D.By using their internal speedometer. 高二下英语·0黑白题135
