“Global warming could make humans shorter,” warn scientists who claim to have found evidence that it caused the world's first horses to shrink(收縮) nearly 50 million years ago. In fact, a team from the universities of Florida and Nebraska says it has found a link between the Earth heating up and the size of mammals – horses, in this case.

The scientists used fossils to follow the evolution of horses from their earliest appearance 56 million years ago. As temperature went up,their size went down, and vice versa(反之亦然);“ At one point they were as small as a house cat,” said Dr Jonathan Bloch, curator(博物館長) of the Florida Museum of Natural History, which was quoted by the "Daily Mail" as saying.

The scientists say that the current warming could have the same effect on mammals and could even make humans smaller."Horses started out small, about the size of a small dog . What's surprising is that after they first appeared, they then became even smaller and then dramatically increased in size, and that exactly corresponds to the global warming event, followed by cooling”

"It had been known that mammals were small during that time and that it was warm, but we hadn't realized that temperature specifically was driving the evolution of body size," Dr Bloch said in the "Science" journal.

1.How did scientists find out the horses’ earliest appearance millions of years ago?

A. searching the data on the net

B. sorting through the pictures of ancient times

C. using fossils to follow the evolution

D. analyzing the related images

2.What can we infer form the passage?

A. As temperatures went up, horses dramatically increased in size

B. The temperature has no effect on mammals’ evolution

C. As temperatures went up, horses’ size went down

D. In history, it used to be warm at early times , followed by a certain period of sharply cooling down.

3.Which is the most closest meaning to the underlined words most probably mean _______.

A. react to B. be contradictory to

C. be consistent with D. differ from

4.What is the best title of the passage?

A. Global warming is to disappear

B. The temperature on earth is to decrease

C. Global warming makes human shorter

D. Mammals are dying out.

Pigs are always considered dirty animals because they roll in mud.But in fact they prefer being quite clean.They cover themselves with mud to help stay cool.During cooler weather, they prefer to stay clean.So do elephants, who also cover themselves in dust or mud to keep cool.When they find a place with clean water they will take a bath,using their long noses to give themselves—or each other—a nice shower

Some animals use dust to get clean.Chinchillas (南美洲栗鼠) have very fine fur. They don’t like to take water baths because water is not warm enough for them.So, instead, they roll around in fine dust.The dust helps to keep their fur and skin dry.This protects them from disease

Usually, a small bird is a light meal for a crocodile.But when a crocodile wants its teeth cleaned.it lies on the ground with its mouth open.The crocodile bird goes in and picks out any parasites(寄生蟲)between the crocodile’s teeth or under its tongue.The crocodile gets its mouth cleaned,and the crocodile bird gets dinner.

You wouldn’t think fish would need baths.But some undersea parasites live under the fish’s skin.“Cleaner” fish,like the wrasse(隆頭魚),help take them away.The wrasse stands on its head and dances to signal a big fish that it is ready to go into the cleaning business.The big fish will stop moving and open its mouth wide so the wrasse can swim inside and pick out parasites and bits of food.

1.The passage is mainly about how animals __________.

A.stay clean B.help each other C.get their food D.take baths

2.What can we learn from the first paragraph about pigs?

A.They can help each other take baths.

B.They are dirtier during cooler weather.

D.They like to stay cool and clean.

3.Chinchillas use dust to get clean for the following reasons EXCEPT that ________.

A. dust can dry their fur and skin B.They are not good at swimming

A.Some animals can get clean from others’ help

B.Most animals are friendly to each other

科目:高中英語 來源:2015屆河北省石家莊市高二下期中英語試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

For many parents , raising a teenager is like fighting a long war ,but years go by without any clear winner . Like a border conflict between neighboring countries ,the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?

Both sides want peace ,but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict . In part ,this is because neither is willing to admit .any responsibility for starting it . From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course .the teens see it in exactly the same way , except oppositely . Both feel trapped

In this article. I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things . Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom ,the preferred style of clothing , the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school ,or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends .Second ,blaming.The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong . Third , needing to be right ,It doesn’t matter what the topic is –politics. The taws of physics ,or the proper way to break an egg –the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong .for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something — and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately , as long as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other ,they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress

1. Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?

A. Both can continue for generations .

B. Both are about where to draw the line

C. Neither has any clear winner

D. Neither can be put to an end

2. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?

A. The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.

B. The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict

C. The teens acouse their parents of misleading them

D. The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents

3.Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ________.

A. give orders to the other

B. know more than the other

C. gain respect from the other

D.get the other to behave properly

4. What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?

A. Causes for the parent –teen conflicts

B. Examples of the parent –teen war.

C. Solutions for the parent –teen problems

D. Future of the parent-teen relationship
