18、the river, an important feature (特征) for the safety of the young. It is called the hoatzin. In appearance, the birds of both sexes look very much alike with brown on the back and cream and red on the underside. The head is small, with a large set of feathers on the top, bright red eyes, and

19、blue skin. Its nearest relatives are the common birds, cuckoos. Its most striking feature, though, is only found in the young. Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip. Using these four claws, together with the beak (喙), they can clim

20、b about in the bushes, looking very much like primitive birds must have done. When the young hoatzins have learned to fly, they lose their claws. During the drier months between December and March hoatzins fly about the forest in groups of 20 to 30 birds, but in April, when the rainy season b

23、w D．they live on river banks 答案　B　[細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的第一句Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing tip.與此段的最后一句When the young hoatzins have learned to fly, they lose their claws.可知幼鳥有爪子而老一些的鳥沒有。故選B。] 3．What can we infer about primitive birds from th

26、, they collect together in smaller living units of two to seven birds for producing purposes.可知。] B The research team has discovered that subordinate fish voluntarily diet to avoid challenging their larger competitors. “In studying gobies we noticed that only the largest two individuals, a ma

27、le and female, had breeding (繁殖) rights within the group, ” explains Marian Wong. “All other group members are nonbreeding females, each being 5～10% smaller than its next largest competitor. We wanted to find out how they maintain this precise size separation.” The reason for the size diff

28、erence was easy to see. Once a subordinate fish grows to within 5～10% of the size of its larger competitor, it causes a fight which usually ends in the smaller goby being driven away from the group. More often than not, the_evicted_fish is then eaten up. It appeared that the smaller fish wer

29、e keeping themselves small in order to avoid challenging the boss fish. Whether they did so voluntarily, by restraining how much they ate, was not clear. The research team decided to do an experiment. They tried to fatten up some of the subordinate gobies to see what happened. To their surpris

30、e, the gobies simply refused the extra food they were offered, clearly preferring to remain small and avoid fights, over having a feast. The discovery challenges the traditional scientific view of how boss individuals keep their position in a group. Previously it was thought that large indi

31、viduals simply used their weight and size to threaten their subordinates and take more of the food for themselves, so keeping their competitors small. While the habits of gobies may seem a little mysterious, Dr. Wong explains that understanding the relationships between boss and subordinate

32、 animals is important to understanding how hierarchical (等級(jí)的) societies remain stable. The research has proved the fact that voluntary dieting is a habit far from exclusive to humans. “As yet, we lack a complete understanding of how widespread the voluntary reduction of food intake is in

33、nature，” the researchers comment. “Data on human dieting suggests that, while humans generally diet to improve health or increase attractiveness, rarely does it improve long-term health and males regularly prefer females that are fatter than the females' own ideal.” 【語篇解讀】　人類節(jié)食是為了讓自己看起來更加美麗動(dòng)人

34、，而魚類節(jié)食則是為 了避免紛爭，避免自己被趕出種群，而最終被吃掉。 5．When a goby grows to within 5～10% of the size of its larger competitor, it________. A．faces danger　　　 B．has breeding rights C．eats its competitor　　　 D．leaves the group itself 答案　A　[細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第二句可知， 當(dāng)a goby長到較大的魚的5～10%時(shí)，會(huì)引起一場爭斗。爭斗的結(jié)果通常是較小的goby被驅(qū)趕出去。故選A。]

A．the fish beaten up　　　 B．the fish found out C．the fish fattened up　　　 D．the fish driven away 答案　D　[詞義猜測題。根據(jù)前面一句提到的the smaller goby being driven away from the group可知the evicted fish應(yīng)指前面被驅(qū)趕走的魚。] 7．The experiment show

A．fought over a feast B．went on diet willingly C．preferred some extra food D．challenged the boss fish 答案　B　[推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段中的最后一句以及最后一段的第一句可知。] 8．What is the text mainly about? A．Fish dieting and human dieting. B．Dieting and health. C．Human dieting. D．Fish dieting. 答案　D　[主旨大意題。第一段應(yīng)是文章的中心；下文是圍繞goby這種魚節(jié)食進(jìn)行的研究。]
