题目内容
14.阅读下面的材料,从A、B、C三个选项中,选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳选项.A thirsty crow (乌鸦) comes across(偶然遇到) a bottle of water,but the water level is out of its reach.The bird then drops some stones into it and gets the water.
"It's just a story,"you may think.But new research has found that crows'brains may sometimes be better than those of 6-year-old children.
In a recent experiment,American scientist Corina Logan and her team caught six crows to test them.The crows and children had to choose between two sets of tubes(试管).They had to drop stones in and get water.
With the red set,when they dropped a stone into a wide lube,the water level raised in a connected narrow tube.The blue set of tubes,however,had no connection between them.
Children aged 7to 10were able learn the rule.Children aged 4-6,however,failed.Five of the six crows failed the test.But Kitty,a 6-month-old crow,passed it.She put most of the stones into the red tubes.
So,could a bird be more clever than a kindergartner?Don't be too quick to say no.

分析 本文是科学报道.
一只口渴的乌鸦偶然看到一瓶水,但是瓶子里的水太少它够不到,乌鸦就衔来一些石子放到瓶子里它就喝到水.
你可能会想"这仅是个故事".但最新的研究发现乌鸦的脑子有时可能要比那些6岁的儿童的脑子好.
最近的一次实验中,美国科学家Corina Logan和他的团队捉到6只乌鸦去测试,乌鸦们和孩子们不得不从2套试管去选择.他们要往试管里扔石头而得到水.
在红色的装置中,当他们把石头放到宽试管里时,水位线在一个相连的窄试管中上升.然而,蓝色的装置在宽试管与窄试管之间并无联系.在7到10岁之间的孩子能学到这个规则.然而4到6岁的儿童却不能.六只乌鸦中的五只没有通过这个测试.但是一只名为Kitty的六个月大的乌鸦却通过了测试.她把大多数的石头放在了红色试管中.
所以,一只鸟会比一个幼儿园的小朋友聪明吗?不要急于回答"不"了.
解答 46.B 主旨大意题.根据第一段讲述的是乌鸦喝水的故事及第二段时对第一段总结"It's just a story"可知第一段是关于乌鸦喝水的故事,故选择B.
47.C 细节理解题.根据原文"Children aged 4-6,however,failed."可知4-6岁的儿童在测试中失败了.故选择C.
48.A 细节理解题.根据第二段"But new research has found that crows'brains may sometimes be better than those of 6-year-old children."但是新的研究发现,乌鸦的大脑可能有时比6岁的孩子厉害.故选择A.
49.B 计算题.根据原文"Five of the six crows failed the test.But Kitty,a 6-month-old crow,passed it."六只乌鸦中的五只测试失败了.但是凯蒂,一个6个月大的乌鸦,通过了.可知总共是六只乌鸦参加测试,故选择B.
50.A 词意猜测题.根据前文"those of 6-year-old children"那些六岁的小孩,可知是幼儿园小朋友,故选择A.
