Contrary to people's previous knowledge, it's food shortage not dietary preference that motivates birds to migrate thousands of miles back and forth between breeding and non­breeding areas each year, a new research shows.

“It's not whether you eat insects，fruits or candy bars or where you eat them that counts，but how reliable that day­to­day food source is，” said the study leader W．Alice Boyle of the University of Arizona.

To figure out the underlying pressure that drives some birds to leave home for the season，Boyle examined 379 related species of New World flycatchers(捕蝇鸟) and compared their sizes，food types, habitats, migratory behaviors and whether or not they fed in flocks.

To compare the birds，the researchers constructed a “supertree”  showing the exact evolutionary relationships among different species.

A computer analysis then determined whether a particular species was migratory because it ran in the “family” or whether something in the bird's environment was forcing it to leave each season.Boyle and her colleagues found that food shortage was the number one issue that predicted a species' migratory behavior. “Food availability is the underlying pressure, not diet and habitat，” Boyle said.

An alternative strategy that the birds use to handle food shortage is to hunt in flocks, since a group is more likely to find a new source of food than an individual.

“If you suffer from food shortage, you have two options，” Boyle said.“You can either hunt with other birds or you can migrate.”

【1】Birds were thought to migrate in order to ________.

A．seek their favorite food in a new place

B．avoid being constantly hunted

C．breed more young in a new place

D．adjust themselves to the changes of weather

【2】What is Paragraphs 3 and 4 mainly about?

A．The aim of the research.

B．The basis of the research.

C．The process of the research.

D．The findings of the research.

【3】The passage implies that ________.

A．the birds' food sources are getting rare in the world

B．the living surroundings are severe for birds

C．birds search for food separately

D．birds can survive only by hunting in flocks

【4】For what purpose does the author write the text?

A．Educating readers.

B．Informing readers.

C．Drawing people's attention.

D．Condemning the bad environment.

22、   I ran into quite a few language problems while travelling with my family last summer. The most embarrassing was when my mom apologized to the people we were staying with because her “ pants were dirty” . They looked at her in amazement, not knowing how to react. You see, Mom had fallen over and gotten mud on her jeans. But in Britain, “ pants”  means underpants（内裤）or knickers, not trousers as it does back home.

——Katie—From America

I went to stay with a friend on the west coast last summer. Her flat was on the first floor of a high-rise building so I got the lift up. Then I wandered round for ages looking for her flat but couldn’t find it. Fed up and tired, I finally had to go out to find a phone box. She explained that her flat was on the first floor, which for me meant the ground floor.

——David—From Britain

When I asked for the “  restroom”  in a big department store, people kept directing me to a room with seats where I could sit and ‘‘ rest. It took me years to get through to someone that I only wanted the toilet!

——Tom—From America

Last summer we went on a two-week family touring holiday, so Dad hired a car over the Internet. This was an old vehicle（汽车）and there turned out to he lots of things wrong with it. When he phoned the hire company and tried to explain that the lock on the boot was broken, they thought he was talking about footwear! He had no idea their word for ‘‘boot”  was “ trunk” . In the end we ‘vent to a garage and just solved the problem.

——Mary—From Britain

23、Choosing a nice mountain bike for you is easier than learning how to ride it. 【1】:

Decide how you are going to use your new mountain bike.

Are you a new rider who simply wants to travel outdoors on the weekend, weather permitting? Do you plan to test yourself on the rough roads, every day, rain or shine? Or are you going to use your new mountain bike to ride to and from school or work? 【2】, and you’re more than half way toward choosing the right mountain bike for you.

Visit your local bike shops.

Any good bike shop will stock a wide range of quality mountain bikes in all price points and sizes. Your local bike shops will carry more than one brand of bicycle. Not only will they sell you a mountain bike that suits your needs, but they will service what they sell.【3】. You’ll get one that satisfies you right away.

Don’t be bashful (羞怯的).

Tell your salesperson how you intend to use your new mountain bike, and how much you are willing to spend. Your salesperson will show you a selection of models and brands accordingly. He or she will also help you determine the right size for you.【4】.

【5】.

All good bike shops let customers take test rides. There’s a good reason for this beyond “try-before-you-buy’’ salesmanship. Since you already know your price range and find the right size, you now have to find out which brand you ride best. They want you to be happy with your purchase. After only a few lest rides from more than one bike shop, the right mountain bike will choose you.

A．Here are some advice on the riding skills

B．Be honest about your intentions

C．Keep these tips in mind

D．Stay safe when taking a test ride

E．Visit at least a few shops

F．You may ask more without any sense of shyness

G．Take a test ride

24、In Judgement Day, one of the hit film series Terminator, a cyborg(生化人) played by Schwarzenegger could heal his skin wound magically, that is, he makes the skin repair itself in less than a second. Recently, according to Mirror, a smart electronic skin like it has been developed, which is as strong, stretchy and sensitive as humans’.

Previous attempts to "electronically" copy human skin have fallen short. Making suitably flexible electronics that can perform delicate tasks while also enduring the bumps and scrapes of everyday life is challenging, and each material involved must be carefully engineered. The previous sensor layer was too weak or too strong, reducing its durability, sensitivity or flexibility, which makes it more likely to break.

With the development of 2D sensors and hydrogel(水凝胶), scientists’ efforts paid off, linking sensor layer with skin functionally and durably. Study author Dr Jie Shen said, "Hydrogels are more than 70 percent water, making them very compatible(相容的) with human skin tissues. By prestretching the hydrogel in all directions, applying a layer of nano（纳米）wires, and then carefully controlling its release, we created conductive pathways to the sensor layer that remained complete even when the material was stretched to 28 times its original size. Meanwhile, skin electronics kept changing at a spectacular pace."

This e-skin can sense temperature and touch from up to 8 inches away, react to things in under one tenth of a second and repair itself more than 5,000 times. The new invention could help monitor a range of biological information, including changes in blood pressure. While the first port of call is medical, the e-skin could benefit a wide range of products one day, such as monitoring the structural condition of furniture and planes.

【1】Why is a cyborg in Judgement Day mentioned in Paragraph l?

A．To introduce the topic.

B．To inform the background.

C．To advertise the hit film.

D．To recommend Schwarzenegger.

【2】What made the previous attempts fall short?

A．The delicate tasks.

B．The unsuitable sensor layer.

C．The bumps and scrapes of everyday life.

D．The compatibility with human skin tissues.

【3】What can we infer about the e-skin from the last paragraph?

A．It can sense and react exactly like humans’ skin.

B．It may be used to check the condition of bridges.

C．It can make human beings live as long as they want.

D．It will turn human beings into cyborgs that never die.

【4】What’s the main idea of the passage?

A．Electronic skin has a wide range of applications.

B．Hydrogel contributes to developing electronic skin.

C．Attempts to develop electronic skin have fallen short.

D．Smart electronic skin has been developed by scientists.
