26、Wild animals seem to have escaped the Indian Ocean tsunami, adding weight to the idea that they have a “sixth sense” of disasters, experts said on Thursday.

Sri Lanka wildlife officials have said the waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island’s coast seemingly missed wildlife, with no dead animals found.

“No elephants are dead, not even a dead hare (野兔) or rabbit. I think animals can sense the disaster. They have a ‘sixth sense’. They know when things are happening, H.D. Ratnayake, director of Sri Lanka’s Wildlife Department, said on Wednesday.

The waves washed floodwaters up to 3 km inland at Yala National Park in the southeast, Sri Lanka’s biggest wildlife reserve and home to hundreds of wild elephants. “There has been a lot of evidence of dogs barking or birds migrating (迁徙) before volcanic eruptions or earthquakes. But it has not been proved,” said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behaviour specialist at Johannesburg Zoo. “There have been no specific studies because you can’t really test it in a lab or a field setting,” he said. Other authorities agreed with this opinion.

“Wildlife seems to be able to pick up certain signs, especially birds. There are many reports of birds detecting coming disasters,” said Clive Walker, who has written several books on African wildlife.

Animals certainly rely on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger such as predators (掠食动物). The idea of an animal “sixth sense” is a lasting one that the evidence of Sri Lanka’s damaged coast is likely to add to.

【1】What happened after the Indian Ocean tsunami?

A．Many people died but wild animals survived.

B．The “six sense” of wild animals developed.

C．Wild animals were killed or went missing.

D．The coast was found in good condition.

【2】Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “detecting” in Paragraph5?

A．Taking up.

B．Putting up.

C．Picking up.

D．Bringing up.

【3】What is the text mainly about?

A．It seems that animals can save themselves from natural disasters.

B．The different opinions about animals’ natural power.

C．How to protect wildlife when disasters happen.

D．The serious damage of the Indian Ocean tsunami.

【4】In which section of a newspaper can we read this text?

A．Travel.

B．Custom.

C．Culture.

D．Discovery.

27、   The future of space exploration may depend on an art form from the past: origami (折纸艺术), the ancient art of paper folding.

Researchers from Washington State University (WSU), US, have used origami to possibly solve the problem of storing and moving fuel to rocket engines, a key challenge in space travel, according to Newswise. They’ve developed a foldable plastic fuel “bladder (囊状物)” resistant to super cold temperatures, which could be used to store and pump fuel in spacecrafts of the future. Their findings have recently been published in the journal Cryogenics.

“Folks have been trying to make bags for rocket fuel for a long time,” said Jake Leachman, one of the lead researchers. “We currently don’t do large, long-duration trips because we can’t store fuel long enough in space.”

Meanwhile, NASA is also looking to paper folding to help observe distant planets. The agency is currently developing Starshade, a foldable, sunflower-shaped piece of hardware that would help block starlight and enable telescopes to view distant objects more clearly in space.

“A huge part of my job is looking at something on paper and asking, ‘Can we fly this?’” Manan Arya, a technologist in California, said. “Once I realized this is how you fold spacecraft structures, I became interested in origami. I realized I was good at it and enjoyed it. Now, I fold constantly. ”

Using origami for space purposes isn’t new, however. Solar arrays (太阳能阵列), experimental wings for space shuttle programs and an inflatable (可充气的) satellite were also inspired by origami in both past and present space projects.

“With most origami, the magic comes from the folding,” Robert Salazar, who helped design the Starshade and now works on the Transformers project, said in a statement. “There are so many patterns to still be explored.”

【1】How could the “bladder” help in future missions?

A．To protect spacecrafts from extreme weather.

B．To be used to store and supply fuel in spacecrafts.

C．To help rocket engines cut energy consumption.

D．To be used to improve energy efficiency.

【2】What can we know about NASA’s Starshade?

A．It can be used to get telescopes closer to stars.

B．It can enlarge the view of telescopes in space.

C．It can absorb a star’s light before it enters telescopes.

D．It can help telescopes get clearer pictures of objects in space.

【3】What is this text?

A．A travel journal.

B．A digest.

C．A science report.

D．An advertisement.

【4】Which can be the suitable title for the text?

A．Folding into space.

B．The art of paper folding.

C．Space exploration.

D．The origami-inspired projects.
