Jeremy Kerr, a researcher at the University of Ottawa in Canada, and his colleagues analyzed more than 400,000 observations of bumblebee species collected in North America and Europe from 1975 to 2010. When the researchers recorded the locations of these bee populations, they found that many of the 67 species analyzed were moving northward from their southern limits while the northern edges of the bees’ ranges are staying in place. What it results in is obvious.

Bees have been paid more attention to in recent years, with populations of honeybees and bumblebees obviously declining in some parts of Europe. Previously, attention on the decline of bee populations has focused on causes including habitat loss, pesticide use and the spread of bee parasites(寄生蟲). But the work by Kerr’s team found something different.

"For every species, there is one or two species declining and others that are not moving at all," says Kerr. This shift has also been observed in other species, such as butterflies. But due to a new cause — the rise of temperatures instead of total pesticide use, a change in land use or parasites, bumblebees — unlike butterflies — have failed to extend the northern boundaries of their ranges into the territory that is now habitable for them, so bumblebee species across Europe and North America are declining rapidly, the latest study led by Kerr’s team finds. "Our data suggest that the new factor plays a leading, or perhaps the leading, role in this trend," says Kerr.

"This study shows that a fourth factor is also beginning to affect it. It is likely that the combined stresses from all of these pressures will have destructive impacts on bumblebees in the not-too-distant future," says Dave Goulson, a bee researcher at the University of Sussex, Brighton, UK.

Exactly what can be done to help bumblebees is not clear. Kerr’s team suggests that relocating colonies might be an answer but Goulson says that because the insects are mobile they are capable of moving northwards if there is suitable habitat available.

1.What does the move of the bees’ southern limits lead to?

A. The birth of new bee species.

B. The rise of the bees’ population.

C. The evolution of the bees.

D. The reduction of the bees’ habitat.

2.What’s the new cause of bee populations’ declining according to Kerr?

A. Habitat loss.

B. Pesticide use.

C. Climate change.

D. The spread of bee parasites.

3.Which statement may Goulson agree with?

A. Relocating bumblebees isn’t much good.

B. The findings of Kerr’s study are doubtful.

C. The future of bumblebees is still promising.

D. Knowing bumblebees’ living habits is the most urgent.

4.What kind of writing is this passage?

A. A book review.

B. An announcement.

C. A scientific report.

D. An official report.

LONDON(AP)---A suburban house that starred onscreen as Harry Potter’s childhood home is on the market---complete with a cupboard under the stairs.

Fans of the boy wizard will recognize 12 Picket Post Close as 4 Privet Drive, home of Harry’s cruel aunt and uncle, the Dursleys.

The couple unwillingly took Harry in after his parents were murdered and made him sleep in a cupboard under the stairs.

The house in Bracknell, 30 miles(50 kilometers)west of London, was a location featured in the 2001 film “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.” A studio set of the house was built for later films of the eight series.

Real estate agency Chancellors(房地產(chǎn)公司總代理)says the three-bedroom house has recently been made over to an extremely high standard.” It’s listed at a price of 475,000 pounds$616,000.)” Real estate agent Paul Bosanko said, “the original plan was to take this property to market without using any reference to Harry Potter. But since news of the connection got out, interest has shot up, and that may or may not influence the final price that we achieve at this property,” Bosanko said.

Neighbor Karen Field said that the house still attracts Potter fans a decade-and-a-half after the film crews left. When the movie first came out, “there were tour buses, literally tour buses coming down the road,” Field said. “It’s a lot quieter now,” she said. “School holidays, you still get people coming along.”

1. What is the news mainly about?

A. 12 Picket Post Close in Bracknell for sale

B. Harry Potter’s s childhood home

C. Visits to Harry Potter’s home

D. Films of Harry Potter at 4 Privet Drive

2.What happened to the suburban house west of London?

A. Harry Potter lived in it in his childhood

B. Harry Potter series were all filmed here

C. It was modeled on as a studio set later

D. It was sold at a price of 475,000 pounds

3.What is not true with the house?

A. It is now on the market

B. It belongs to the Dursleys

C. It was related to Harry Potter

D. Potter fans keep coming to it

What happens inside the head of a soccer player who repeatedly heads a soccer ball? That question motivated a study of the brains of experienced players.

Researchers at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York selected 34 adults, men and women. All of the volunteers had played soccer since childhood and now competed year-round in adult soccer leagues. Each filled out a detailed questionnaire developed especially for this study to determine how many times they had headed a soccer ball in the previous year, as well as whether they had experienced any known concussions (腦震蕩) in the past.

Then the players completed computerized tests of their memory and other learning skills and had their brains scanned, using a complex new M.R.I. technique which can find structural changes in the brain that can’t be seen during most scans.

According to the data they presented, the researchers found that the players who had headed the ball more than about 1,100 times in the previous 12months showed significant loss of white matter in parts of their brains involved with memory, attention and the processing of visual information, compared with players who had headed the ball less.

This pattern of white matter loss is “similar to those seen in traumatic (外傷的) brain injury”, like that after a serious concussion, the researchers reported, even though only one of these players was reported to have ever experienced a concussion.

The players who had headed the ball about 1,100 times or more in the past year were also generally worse at recalling lists of words read to them, forgetting or fumbling the words far more often than players who had headed the ball less.

1. Where do you think the text comes from?

A. Medicine instructions. B. A text for doctors.

C. A research report. D. A sports advertisement.

2.What do we know about the volunteers?

A. They had serious injury on the head.

B. They were adults who still played soccer.

C. They were all researchers about soccer.

D. They all had children who played soccer.

3. What was used to find the structural changes in the brains?

A. Advanced computers.

B. A new technique M. R. I.

C. Special questionnaires.

D. Learning skills.

4. We can conclude that frequent heading may have .

A. a significant effect on one’s brain

B. little effect on one’s brain

C. nothing to do with the brain

D. improvement in one’s brain

Have you ever wondered when dogs first became “man’s best friend” and the world’s favourite pet? If you have then you’re not alone. When and where dogs first began living side-side with humans are questions that have stirred hot debate among scientists. There are a few hard facts that all agree on. These include that dogs were once wolves and they were the first animal to be domesticated(馴養(yǎng)) by humans. They came into lives some 15000 years ago, before the dawn of agriculture.

Beyond that, there is little agreement. The earliest bones found that are unquestionable dogs and not wolves date from 14,000 years ago. However, 30,000-year-old skulls have been discovered in France and Belgium that are not pure wolf and some scientists think could be dogs.

With such puzzling evidence, many scientists are now turning to DNA to find out when and where dogs were first domesticated. In one research project, tens of thousands of blood samples have been taken from street dogs around the world. The plan is to compare them with those of wolves. It’s even possible to analyse DNA from ancient bones. Tiny pieces of the 30,000-year-old skulls mentioned earlier are currently being studied, and another DNA study has already shown that ancient dogs preserved in the Alaskan ice-fields evolved from Asian wolves, not American ones.

Indeed, the ancient DNA may turn out to be more informative than the DNA of living dogs. Because dogs have accompanied humans around the world for thousands of years, their current distribution may tell us very little of their origins. This is why different groups of scientists believe that dogs variously originated in eastern Asia, Mongolia, Siberia, Europe or Africa.

But why were the animals domesticated in the first place? The most recent theory is that dogs domesticated themselves, initially living in and around our ancient villages to eat any food thrown out. Today, this is a way of life still shared by three -quarters of a billion unowned dogs worldwide.

1. Which is the only statement generally agreed on by scientists studying dogs?

A. They originally were used as farm animal

B. They evolved from wolves found in Europe

C. They helped the development of agriculture

D. They were the first animal to be kept as pets

2. Why does the writer first mention the 30,000-year-old animals skulls?

A. To show that dogs were much larger in the past

B. To prove that dogs developed from Asian wolves

C. To suggest that dogs may have evolved much earlier

D. To argue that dogs were first kept in France and Belgium

3. How did scientists determine the origins of the ancient dogs found in Alaska?

A. By examine the animals’ DNA

B. By analyzing the age of their bones

C. By studying the shape of their skulls

D. By comparing them with modern dogs

4. Why did dogs start living with humans?

A. Because they were attracted by food

B. Because they were trapped by humans

C. Because they couldn’t survive in the wild

D. Because they were trained to protect villages
