A
Bees are known to tell time by light and social clues. Now, researchers have shown that the biological clocks of bees can be changed by another surprising factor: temperature cycles inside the hive (蜂巢).
The researchers tried to better understand how bees lived in areas beyond where light entered the hive.They were surprised to find clear temperature fluctuations across the day throughout the hive, which was caused by daylight.
To understand how important this temperature cycle was to a bee's activity, the researchers put bees in total darkness all the time while exposing them to the temperature cycles they observed within the hive. Six days later, the scientists moved the temperature cycle back by six hours. “We saw that the bees changed their activity with the temperature, meaning their daily routines were reactive to temperature,” a researcher said.
The discovery that bees can tell exact time from temperature cycles inside the hive shows that on a cloudy day or when bees aren't going outdoors, they have other means to tell time exactly. This will affect the way that researchers understand, explain and combine what they know of bee behavior.
More broadly, as more extreme weather events occur around the world, bees will face challenges to continuing the activities that keep them and the agriculture they support healthy and energetic. If part of the southern U.S. is hit with an unexpected snowstorm, bees getting ready to search for food might not realize they need to save energy and heat the hive. In the event of a 100-degree day, bees will have to spend a lot of energy keeping the hive cool. It is those considerations that will influence hive health or possible hive breakdown.
"We want to see how important this research is this winter in Tennessee,when bees aren't leaving the hive as much," researchers said. "We will be interested to see how our findings apply to zones where temperature varies more greatly across the year." This research will also reshape how researchers think about bees' biological rhythms.
1.What does the underlined word "fluctuations" in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Measures. B.Changes. C.Approaches. D.Functions.
2.What can we learn about the research?
A.It was carried out at night. B.It was based on a previous study.
C.It analyzed bees' daily routines. D.It studied how bees react to challenges.
3.The last paragraph talks about the ______ of the research.
A.Significance B.result C.process D.background
4.Which might be the best title for the passage?
A.Lights Affect Bees' Biological Clocks B.Bee Behavior Surprises Researchers
C.Bees React Smartly to Extreme Weather D.Bees Can Tell Time by Temperature
B
Values for Americans
One of the most basic moral values for Americans is honesty. The well-known legend about George Washington and the cherry tree teaches this value clearly. Little George cut down his father’s favorite cherry tree while trying out his new hatchet. When his father asked him about it, George said, “I cannot tell a lie. I did it with my hatchet.” Instead of punishment, George received praise for telling the truth. 5 But Americans still believe that “honesty is the best policy.”
6 Remember Aesop’s fable about the turtle and the rabbit that had a race? The rabbit thought he could win easily, so he took a nap. But the turtle finally won because he did not give up. 7 The hill was so steep that the little train had a hard time trying to get over it. But the train just kept pulling, all the while saying, “I think I can, I think I can.” At last, the train was over the top of the hill.
Compassion(怜悯) may be the queen of American virtues. The story of “The Good Samaritan” from the Bible describes a man who showed compassion. On his way to a certain city, a Samaritan man found a poor traveler lying on the road. 8 The kind Samaritan, instead of just passing by, stopped to help this person in need,
9 In fall 1992, people in Iowa sent truckloads of water to help Floridians hit by a hurricane. The next summer, during the Midwest flooding, Florida returned the favor. In less dramatic ways, millions of Americans are quietly passing along the kindnesses shown to them.
A.The traveler had been beaten and robbed.
B.Another virtue Americans respect is perseverance (坚持不懈).
C.As a matter of fact, it is these virtues that help the country develop.
D.Compassion can even turn into a positive cycle.
E.There used to be a high and steep hill.
F.Sometimes American honesty—being open and direct—can hurt people.
G.Another story tells of a little train that had to climb a steep hill,

IV.阅读理解
1.B 2.C 3.A 4.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了研究者发现蜜蜂可以通过蜂巢内的温度周期来判断时间,这一发现将影响研究者对蜜蜂行为的理解和解释。
1.词句猜测题。根据第一段“Now, researchers have shown that the biological clocks of bees can be changed by another surprising factor: temperature cycles inside the hive (蜂巢).”(现在,研究人员已经证明,蜜蜂的生物钟可以被另一个令人惊讶的因素改变:蜂巢内的温度循环。)以及第二段“which was caused by daylight.”(是由日光引起的)可知,整个蜂巢一天中有明显的温度改变。故划线词fluctuations为“改变”的意思,和B项Changes“改变”语义一致。故选B项。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段““We saw that the bees changed their activity with the temperature, meaning their daily routines were reactive to temperature,” a researcher said.”( 一位研究人员说:“我们看到蜜蜂会随着温度的变化而改变它们的活动,这意味着它们的日常活动会对温度产生反应。”)可知,研究分析了蜜蜂的日常活动。故选C项。
3.主旨大意题。根据最后一段“"We want to see how important this research is this winter in Tennessee,when bees aren't leaving the hive as much," researchers said. "We will be interested to see how our findings apply to zones where temperature varies more greatly across the year." This research will also reshape how researchers think about bees' biological rhythms”(“我们想看看这个冬天在田纳西州的研究有多重要,因为蜜蜂离开蜂巢的次数很少。” 研究人员说。“我们很有兴趣看看我们的发现如何适用于全年温度变化更大的地区。”这项研究还将重塑研究人员对蜜蜂生物节律的看法)可知,最后一段主要是关于研究的重要性。故选A项。
4.主旨大意题。根据第一段“Now, researchers have shown that the biological clocks of bees can be changed by another surprising factor: temperature cycles inside the hive”( 现在,研究人员已经证明,蜜蜂的生物钟可以被另一个令人惊讶的因素改变:蜂巢内的温度循环)以及全文内容可知,文章主要讲述了研究者发现蜜蜂可以通过蜂巢内的温度周期来判断时间,这一发现将影响研究者对蜜蜂行为的理解和解释。D项“蜜蜂可以通过温度来判断时间”概括文章主旨,适合作为标题。故选D项。
5.F 6.B 7.G 8.A 9.D
【分析】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了美国推崇的价值观——诚实,坚持不懈,怜悯。
5.根据下文“But Americans still believe that ‘honesty is the best policy.’”(但是美国人仍然相信“诚实是最好的政策”)可知前后为转折关系,所以前句应该是诚实的不好的地方。F项“Sometimes American honesty—being open and direct—can hurt people.”(有时候,美国式的诚实——开放和直接——会伤害人们。)有时诚实会伤害人,符合题意。故选F项。
6.根据下文“Remember Aesop’s fable about the turtle and the rabbit that had a race?”(还记得伊索寓言里乌龟和兔子比赛的故事吗?)内容伊索寓言中的龟兔赛跑讲的是坚持不懈,所以此段介绍另一种价值观。B项“Another virtue Americans respect is perseverance.”(美国人尊重的另一个美德是坚持不懈。)符合此处另一种价值观。故选B项。
7.根据下文“The hill was so steep that the little train had a hard time trying to get over it. ”(这座山很陡,小火车很难翻过去。)根据下文提到了hill,G项“Another story tells of a little train that had to climb a steep hill.”(另一个跟坚持有关的爬山的故事。)与上文对应。故选G项。
8.根据下文“The kind Samaritan, instead of just passing by, stopped to help this person in need.”(那个善良的撒马利亚人,不仅仅是路过而是停下来帮助这个需要帮助的人。)根据故事的发展可知此处表示这位穷人的悲惨遭遇,所以A项“The traveler had been beaten and robbed.”(旅行者遭到殴打和抢劫。)符合题意。故选A项。
9.根据下文“ In less dramatic ways, millions of Americans are quietly passing along the kindnesses shown to them.”(数以百万计的美国人正以不那么引人注目的方式,悄悄地传递着对他们的善意。)后文介绍的佛罗里达州的人们在接受别人的帮助后回馈社会的行为可以看出怜悯有时会形成良性循环,所以D项“Compassion can even turn into a positive cycle.”(同情心甚至可以变成一个积极的循环。)符合题意。故选D项。
