It’s close to but not quite like the Dr.Seuss’s book，where the elephant Horton hears something that others can’t hear. Mcb and colleagues went to Amboseli National Park in Kenya，where hundreds of wild elephants live among humans，sometimes ing in conflict over scarce water.The scientists used voice recordings of Maasai men，who on occasion kill elephants，and Kamba men，who are less of a threat to the elephants. As a result，the elephants reacted more defensively—retreating and gathering in a bunch—to the Maasai language recording because it was associated with the more threatening human tribe，said study co－author Graeme Shannon. They repeated the experiment with recordings of Maasai men and women.Since women almost never spear elephants，the animals reacted less defensively to the women’s voices.The same thing happened when they substituted young boys’ voices.“Making this kind of fine distinctions in human voice patterns is quite remarkable，”said Emory University animal cognition expert Frans de Waal，who was not part of the study. 【解題導(dǎo)語】　研究表明野生大象能夠識別男人、女人和男孩的聲音，它們通過思維區(qū)分聲音并判斷誰能對他們產(chǎn)生威脅。 1．Who were the people taking part in the study? A．Frans de Waal and Karen Mcb. B．Dr.Seuss and Graeme Shannon. C．Graeme Shannon and Frans de Waal. D．Karen Mcb and Graeme Shannon. D　解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一段中的“study author Karen Mcb”和第六段中的“study co－author Graeme Shannon”可知，Karen Mcb和Graeme Shannon都參加了研究，故選D項(xiàng)。 2．What can wild elephants benefit from their special ability? A．Identifying and avoiding possible danger. B．Growing much faster than any other animals. C．Having a better understanding of humans. D．Developing their language skills. A　解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第一段中的“Scientists say this is an advanced thinking skill that other animals haven’t shown.It lets elephants figure out who is a threat and who isn’t.”可知，這種高等的思維方式使野象能夠分辨出誰能對它們造成威脅，這樣它們可以避免可能的危險，故A項(xiàng)是正確的。 3．Which can replace the underlined word “substituted” in the last paragraph? A．Distinguished.　　　　　　　　 B．Repeated. C．Used. D．pared. C　解析：詞義猜測題。畫線詞所在句中的“The same thing happened”指的是前一句中的“the animals reacted less defensively”，畫線詞所在句講的是野象對年輕男孩的聲音作出的反應(yīng)，說明當(dāng)時研究者在對野象播放年輕男孩的聲音，故選C項(xiàng)。 4．What does the passage mainly talk about? A．Wild elephants can distinguish human languages. B．The conflict between humans and wild elephants is growing. C．Wild elephants use language skills to make discrimination. D．Wild elephants can build up good memory and learn tricks. A　解析：主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章第一句“Wild elephants can tell whether a voice es from a man，a woman or a boy”和全文內(nèi)容可知，野象能夠通過人的聲音區(qū)分不同人類群體的性別和年齡，故選A項(xiàng)(野象能夠區(qū)分人類的語言)。 B Andy is the most unreasonable, pigheaded life form in the world, and he makes me so angry that I could scream! Of course, I love him like a brother.I have to because he is my brother.More than that, he is my twin! That’s right.Andy and Amy (that’s me) have the same curly hair and dark eyes and equally stubborn characters.Yet, though we may look alike, on most issues we usually take pletely opposite positions.If I say day, you can count on Andy to say night. Just this week, the hot topic in school was all about the PTA’s proposal(提議) to adopt a school dress principle.Every student would be required to wear a uniform.Uniforms! Can you imagine? Oh, they would be uniforms in color.The dress style would be sort of loose and free. Boys would wear white or blue buttondown shirts, a school tie, blue or gray pants, and a navy blue blazer(運(yùn)動夾克)．Girls would wear white or blue blouses or sweaters, blue or gray pants or skirts, along with a navy blue blazer. Socks or tights could be black, gray, blue, or white.The teachers are divided: Some are in favor of the uniforms, others are opposed.The headmaster has asked the students to express their opinions by voting on the issue before making their decisions.She will have the final word on the dress principle. I think a dress principle is a good idea.The reason is simple.School is tough enough without worrying about looking cool every single day.The fact is, the less I have to decide first thing in the morning, the better.I can’t tell you how many mornings I look into my closet and just stare, unable to decide what to wear.Of course, there are other mornings when my room looks like a storm had hit it, with bits and pieces of a dozen different possible clothes on the bed and on the floor.I also wouldn’t mind not having to see guys wearing oversized jeans and shirts.And I certainly would wele not seeing kids showing off designerlabeled clothes. Andy is surprised at my opinion.He says he can’t believe that I would be willing to give up my allAmerican teenage birthright by dressing like—well, like a typical teenager.Last night, he even dragged out Mom and Dad’s high school photo albums.What a couple of peaceloving hippies(嬉皮士) they were! “Bruce Springsteen never wore a school uniform.Bob Dylan wouldn’t have been caught dead in a school uniform! If I have to wear a uniform, I won’t feel like me! ” he declared. To which I replied, “So your personal heroes didn’t wear school uniforms.Big deal! They went to high school about a million years ago! I feel sorry for you, brother dear.I had no idea that you are so fragile that you would be pletely destroyed by gray or blue pants, a white or blue shirt, a tie, and a blazer.” That really made him angry.Then he said, “You’re just mimicking(模仿) what you hear that new music teacher saying! ” “That is so not true.I’m saying exactly what I think，” I said, raising my voice in what Mom would call “a very rude manner”. “You have always been stupid, and you know it! ” he shouted. “Is that so? Anyone who doesn’t agree with you is automatically stupid.And that’s the stupidest thing of all! ” I said. Fortunately, the bell rang before we could do each other physical harm, and we went thankfully to our separate classes. The vote for or against uniforms took place later that day.The results of the vote and the headmaster’s decision will be announced next week.I wonder what it will be.I know how I voted, and I’m pretty sure I know how Andy voted. How would you vote—for or against? 【解題導(dǎo)語】　文章講述了一對孿生兄妹， 他們之間在很多事情上意見不一致， 總是發(fā)生沖突。就最近學(xué)校的一個熱門話題來說， 學(xué)校要為學(xué)生定制校服， Amy認(rèn)為， 學(xué)校定制校服是很好的事情， 學(xué)生不應(yīng)該穿奇裝異服， 而Andy則認(rèn)為， 這樣不好， 學(xué)生每個人都要穿著有個性。 5．Amy and Andy quarrel because ________． A．they share a cupboard B．Amy likes to show off C．they both have the word for dress principle D．they always take the opposite views on issues D　解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段的“Yet, though we may look alike, on most issues we usually take pletely opposite positions.”可知， 選擇D。他們在大多數(shù)問題上意見相左。 6．The story is about ________． A．a(chǎn) conflict of opinions between boys and girls B．a(chǎn) historical event and is told in the third person C．a(chǎn) personal experience and is told in the first person D．a(chǎn) school policy decision that will affect parents and students C　解析：主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容可知， 這篇文章講述了一對孿生兄妹在學(xué)校是否購買校服這一事情上觀點(diǎn)完全相反這件事， 是以第一人稱所寫的一件事情， 故選擇C。 7．Amy’s position on school uniforms is most likely based on ________． A．logical conclusions drawn from her own observation and personal experience B．a(chǎn)n emotional reaction to what she has been told by people in authority C．her preference for designerlabeled clothes D．not liking anything her brother likes A　解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第六段的“I think a dress principle is a good idea.The reason is simple.School is tough enough without worrying about looking cool every single day.”以及“I also wouldn’t mind not having to see guys wearing oversized jeans and shirts.And I certainly would wele not seeing kids showing off designerlabeled clothes.”可知， Amy的立場是基于自己的觀察和經(jīng)歷而得出的符合邏輯的結(jié)論， 故選擇A。 8．Which of the following is the best statement of Andy’s position?

She fought for women’s rights long before they became a popular issue. Susan was born on February 15, 1820, in Adams，Massachusetts. At that time, women had few rights. They could not own property. Money earned by a married woman belonged to her husband. Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers. Women could not vote. At the age of 15, Susan became a schoolteacher. She taught for 15 years. Then she began organizing women’s groups to promote causes that were important to women. She helped gain better educational rights for women. She helped give married women possession of their earnings. After the Civil War, Susan became very involved in the women’s suffrage movement. After years of lecturing, writing，and appealing by Susan and other women, some parts of the United States changed their laws to give women the right to vote. The first state was Wyoming in 1869. Other areas and states gradually followed Wyoming’s decision. It was not until 1920 that the U．S. Constitution was changed to give all women voting rights. Susan Brownell Anthony died in 1906 at the age of 86. She was elected to the Hall of Fame for Great Americans in 1950. She was the first American woman to have a likeness(肖像) of her face on a coin. It was the 1979 Susan Brownell Anthony dollar. 【解題導(dǎo)語】　本文主要介紹了美國歷史上著名的女權(quán)運(yùn)動領(lǐng)袖Susan Brownell Anthony。她努力為婦女爭取了財產(chǎn)權(quán)、投票權(quán)等權(quán)利。 1．What was the situation of American women like when Susan was born? A．They had low social status. B．They could vote after getting married. C．They managed money for their husbands. D．They were responsible for decisionmaking. A　解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“At that time, women had few rights. They could not own property. Money earned by a married woman belonged to her husband. Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers. Women could not vote.”可知，在那時，女性沒有什么權(quán)利，地位是低下的，故A項(xiàng)正確。B、C和D項(xiàng)均與此表述不符。 2．What is the third paragraph mainly about? A．Susan’s teaching experiences. B．Susan’s educational background. C．Susan’s efforts to abolish slavery. D．Susan’s fighting for women’s causes. D　解析：段落大意題。通讀第三段尤其是“Then she began organizing women’
