22、   Leg over leg, a furry brownish — black spider pulls on a single silk thread, tightening the frame of its web. It pulls and pulls and it waits. Minutes pass, sometimes hours. Then, when an unsuspecting insect flies by, the spider releases the thread, springing itself and its satellite-shaped web toward its prey. All of this happens in the blink of an eye.

Those eye-watering numbers led Georgia Tech chemical engineer Saad Bhamla to wonder: How are these tiny spiders achieving such fast movements? Then he started to investigate. He checked the literature and found only a few papers. The papers were decades old and only described the slingshot motion, not the speeds or G-forces the spiders experienced. So Bhamla enlisted the help of his assistant, Symone Alexander, and together they “went out hunting for spiders in the Amazon rainforest,” Alexander says.

After locating one of the spiders, which measures roughly 2 millimeters in length, the researchers would set up portable high-speed cameras with special lenses and record its motions. Then, either Alexander or Bhamla would snap their fingers to get the spider to launch itself through the air. Only later did the pair learn that a human finger-snap closely matches the frequency of a buzzing mosquito and that seemed to be the only frequency that set the spiders' spring off. “It's just amazing that we can snap our fingers and get this magical thing,” Bhamla says.

Analyzing the footage, Alexander and Bhamla could watch exactly how the spider adjusted itself on the tension line at the front of its web. The speed and acceleration of this spider are impressive, but so is the fact that, unlike most web-building spiders, it's actively hunting, Bhamla says. “It's changed the function of its web, “ he says. “Instead of waiting for something to bump into it, the spider is going after things . . . actually catching flying insects in midair.”

【1】What does the underlined word “prey”refer to?

A．The web.

C．The insect.

D．The spider.

【2】What does the first paragraph mainly describe?

A．How a tiny spider achieves such fast movements.

B．How a tiny spider catches an unsuspecting insect.

C．What a tiny spider does to tighten the frame of its web.

D．Why a tiny spider uses the thread to launch itself to hunt.

【3】What did the researchers do to capture the motions of the spider?

A．They checked quantities of literature before their hiking.

B．They snapped their fingers acting as a buzzing mosquito.

C．They set up portable high-speed cameras with normal lenses.

D．They watched and analyzed the spider's footprints on the web.

【4】Where is this text most likely from?

A．A diary.

23、Age has its privileges (特权) in America, and one of the most important of them is the senior citizen discount. Anyone who has reached a certain age — in some cases as low as 55 — is automatically entitled to a dazzling array of price reductions at nearly every level of commercial life. Eligibility (资格) is determined not by one’s need but by the date on one’s birth certificate. Practically unheard of a generation ago, the discounts have become a routine part of many businesses — as common as color televisions in motel rooms and free coffee on airliners.

People with gray hair often are given the discounts without even asking for them; yet, millions of Americans above age 60 are healthy and solvent (有支付能力的). Businesses that would never dare offer discounts to college students or anyone under 30 freely offer them to older Americans. The practice is acceptable because of the widespread belief that “elderly” and “needy” are synonymous. Perhaps that once was true, but today elderly Americans as a group have a lower poverty rate than the rest of the population. To be sure, there is economic diversity within the elderly, and many older Americans are poor. But most of them aren’t.

It is impossible to determine the impact of the discounts on individual companies. For many firms, they are a stimulus to revenue. But in other cases the discounts are given at the expense, directly or indirectly, of younger Americans. Moreover, they are a direct irritant (刺激物) in what some politicians and scholars see as a coming conflict between the generations.

Generational tensions are being fueled by continuing debate over Social Security benefits, which mostly involve a transfer of resources from the young to the old. Employment is another sore point. Supported by laws and court decisions, more and more older Americans are declining the retirement dinner in favor of staying on the job — thereby reducing employment and promotion opportunities for younger workers.

Far from a kind of charity they once were, senior citizen discounts have become an economic privilege to a group with millions of members who don’t need them. It no longer makes sense to treat the elderly as a single group whose economic needs deserve priority over those of others. Senior citizen discounts only enhance the myth that older people can’t take care of themselves and need special treatment; and they threaten the creation of a new myth, that the elderly are ungrateful and taking for themselves at the expense of children and other age groups. Senior citizen discounts are the essence of the very thing older Americans are fighting against — discrimination by age.

【1】We learn from the first paragraph that ______.

A．offering senior citizens discounts has become routine commercial practice

B．senior citizen discounts have enabled many old people to live a comfortable life

C．giving senior citizens discounts has boosted the market for the elderly

D．senior citizens have to show their birth certificates to get a discount

【2】The underlined word “revenue” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.

A．tax

B．expense

C．profits

D．expansion

【3】What assumption lies behind the practice of senior citizen discounts?

A．Businesses, having made a lot of profits, should do something for society in return.

B．Old people are entitled to special treatment for the contribution they made to society.

C．The elderly, being financially underprivileged, need humane help from society.

D．Senior citizen discounts can make up for the inadequacy of the Social Security system.

【4】Which of the following best summarizes the author’s main argument?

A．Senior citizens should fight hard against age discrimination.

B．The elderly are selfish and taking senior discounts for granted.

C．Priority should be given to the economic needs of senior citizens.

D．Senior citizen discounts may well be it type of age discrimination.

24、   When humans make friends, we often choose companions who share similar characteristics to us or enjoy participating in the same activities that we enjoy. Interestingly, it turns out that dolphins (海豚) may not be so different, according to a study which found that the animals form strong social ties with those who have similar interests. In some ways, this may not be surprising, if we know dolphins live in groups characterized by complex social activities. However, the latest findings are yet another powerful example of the intelligence that these creatures possess.

For the study, an international team of scientists studied a unique group of bottlenose dolphins, who live in the World Heritage area of Shark Bay, Western Australia. They are particularly interesting because the females are known to use sea sponges (海绵动物) as foraging (觅食) tools, a behavior that hasn’t been perceived anywhere else. The behavior known as “sponging,” helps the dolphins to find food in deeper waters and is socially-learned, being passed down from mother to baby.

Previous studies have shown that females in this group who use sea sponges to find food often like to hang out with other females who do the same. However, studies of this behavior in males are lacking, leaving a gap (空白) in our knowledge. To try and address this gap, the researchers collected data on 124 male dolphins in Shark Bay over a 9-year period between 2007 and 2015. Among these dolphins, some had the sponging behavior, while others did not. After analyzing their data, the team came to the conclusion that those males who used sponges for foraging associated significantly more often with other “spongers,” no matter how related they were to their companions. Interestingly, male spongers spent significantly more time foraging and less time resting than non-spongers.

According to the lead author of the study, Manuela Bizzozzero, the findings cast new light on the social ties between male dolphins at Shark Bay.

【1】What can we learn form the first paragraph?

A.Dolphins are humans’ best friends.

B.Dolphins make friends like humans.

C.Dolphins can understand humans’ emotions.

D.Dolphins confuse humans with their lifestyles.

【2】What does the underlined word “perceived” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A.Influenced. B.Prevented.

C.Observed. D.Accepted.

【3】Why does the author mention previous studies in Paragraph 3?

A.To explain the intention of the latest studies.

B.To present their achievements in dolphin research.

C.To stress that dolphins have the socially-learned behavior.

D.To show how female dolphins use sea sponges to find food.

【4】What’s the result of the studies on male bottlenose dolphins?

A.Few of them make use of sponges to find food.

B.A large quantity of them mainly feed on sponges.

C.Male spongers rest more often than non-spongers.

D.Male spongers enjoy staying with other spongers.
