(2014·德州模擬)Some animals will defend their territory by fighting with those who try to invade it.Fighting，however，is not often the best choice，since it uses up a large amount of energy，and can result in injury or even death.Most animals rely on various threats，either through sounds or smells.The songs of birds，the drumming of woodpeckers and the loud calls of monkeys are all warnings that carry for long distances，advertising to possible invaders that someone else’s territory is being approached.Many animals rely on smells to mark their territories or leaving droppings around the territories.Other animals will be warned off the territory without ever meeting with the territory’s defender.

Sometimes，these warnings may be ignored，and an invader may move accidentally into a neighboring territory，or two animals may meet near the border of their nearby territories.When the two animals meet，they will generally threaten each other with visual (視覺的) displays.These displays will often exaggerate an animal’s size by putting up feathers or fur，or will show off the animal’s weapons.The animals may go through all the behavior of fighting without ever actually touching each other.The displays are generally performed best near the center of an animal’s territory，where it is more likely to attack an invader and where retreating becomes more of a choice.

Actual fighting usually only happens in overcrowded conditions，when resources are not enough.Serious injury can result，and old or sick animals may die，leading to a more balanced population size.Under most natural conditions，territoriality is an effective way of maintaining a healthy population.The study of social behaviors such as territoriality in animals may also help us to understand human society.

1.What topic is the passage mainly involved in?

A．What animals’ territory is usually like.

B．How animals deal with different threats.

C．How animals defend their territory.

D．Where animal fights take place frequently.

2.For most animals，what’s their first response to the possible invaders to defend their territory?

A．Fighting in groups.

B．Threatening and warning.

C．Escaping before being hurt.

D．Asking partners for help.

3.What does the underlined word “exaggerate” in the second paragraph mean?

A．enlarge 　B．change

C．shake 　D．shrink

4.An actual fight will happen when________.

A．a(chǎn)nimals meet near the border of their territories

B．the invader enters the defender’s territories

C．the defender notices the invader smaller than itself

D．the living resources are limited in the territory

5.The last paragraph tells us that territoriality has an influence on the________of the animals.

A．communication 　B．condition

C．population 　D．migration

There was a sweet smell of incense (香) in the air as the well?muscled man moved his legs into a position well behind his head.It was something that the human body really should not be able to do.But what else would you expect at the First World Yoga Championships?

On September 25，the world’s leading yoga experts arrived in the US to find out who was the best.But the real prize was to turn yoga into a proper Olympic event.

“Yoga is a combination of bodybuilding，Miss World，Mr Universe and gymnastics，” said championship organizer Bikram Choudhury.“There are some 70 people from more than 20 countries competing in this event.Why not have yoga at the Olympics？”

The public cannot decide whether or not Choudhury’s dream will come true.But he is right about one thing：yoga has become popular with young and old people all over the world.In the US alone,15 million people practise yoga.Everyone is at it，including Madonna and Ricky Martin.

Yoga started in India more than 5,000 years ago.The name means “to join together”．That is to bring the body and mind together into one pleasing experience.The whole system of yoga is built on three things：exercise，breathing and meditation (沉思)．

The yoga that we know today is mostly physical yoga.It’s seen as a type of exercise，but is different from sports like football or running.When we do yoga，we move our body into positions that stretch the muscles and joints，making them stronger.

One of the best things about yoga is the fact that everyone can do it.To women，it means a flat stomach，more shapely legs and a graceful body.To men，it is a way of becoming stronger and more athletic.

There are also specially?designed yoga classes for pregnant women or children suffering from mental disabilities，such as autism (孤獨癥)．As for teenagers，meditation and simple breathing exercises can help them learn to calm down，relax and concentrate better.But teenagers under 16 are not supposed to do the body exercises as it could have a bad effect on their natural growth.

1.What does the first paragraph mainly tell us?

A．Something sportsmen should not do in practising yoga.

B．Basic skills that are required in performing yoga.

C．The performance of the sportsmen at the First World Yoga Championships.

D．The unique setting where yoga is performed.

2.What is Choudhury’s dream in the passage?

A．Turning yoga into a proper Olympic event.

B．Making all Americans practise yoga.

C Winning the First World Yoga Championships.

D．Getting the public support for promoting yoga.

3.Why does the author mention Madonna and Ricky Martin in the fourth paragraph?

A．To compare the differences between the young and the old.

B．To describe the extensive popularity of yoga in the US.

C．To emphasize the importance of practising yoga.

D．To explain the strong influence of public figures in the US.

4.Which statement is NOT true about yoga?

A．It is a type of exercise which benefits the body and mind.

B．It makes muscles and joints stronger by stretching.

C．It contains exercise，breathing and meditation.
