【4】the后面用名词形式，所以填development。

【5】be unable to do sth. 不能做某事，固定搭配，故填to provide。

练习册系列答案

However, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the common basilisk Basilicusbasilicus, a lizard (蜥蜴) native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several metres, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water's surface with its feet. The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. For humans to do this, we'd need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate “hitting”．

But fortunately there is an alternative: corn flour. By adding enough of this common thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot), you can create a “nonNewtonian” liquid that doesn't behave like normal water. Now, if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles(粒子) in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick liquid of corn flour.

Fun though all this may sound, it's still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink—and take a shower afterwards!

【1】What do we know about Basilicusbasilicus from the passage?

A. It is light enough to walk on water.

B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.

C. It can run across water at a certain speed.

D. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water.

【2】What is the function of the corn flour according to the passage?

A. To create a thick liquid.

B. To turn the water into solid.

C. To help the liquid behave normally.

D. To enable the water to move rapidly.

【3】What is the author's attitude towards the idea of humans' walking on water?

A. It is risky but beneficial.

B. It is interesting and worth trying.

C. It is crazy and cannot become a reality.

D. It is impractical though theoretically possible.

【题目】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

Very mobile ears help many animals direct their attention to the rustle of a possible attacker. Researchers say these mobile ears have become a useful communication tool. Their studies of animal behaviour build up a picture of how communication and social skills developed.

“We're interested in how they communicate,” said lead researcher Jennifer Wathan.“And being sensitive to what another individual is thinking is a fundamental skill from which other more complex skills develop.”

Ms Wathan and her colleague Prof Karen McComb set up a behavioural experiment where 72 individual horses had to use visual clues from another horse in order to choose where to feed. They led each horse to a point where it had to select one of two buckets. On a wall behind this decision-making spot was a life-sized photograph of a horse's head facing either to left or right. In some of the trials, the horses’ ears or eyes were covered.

If the ears and eyes of the horse in the picture were visible, the horses being tested would choose the bucket towards which its gaze and its ears were directed. If the horse in the picture had either its eyes or its ears covered, the horse being tested would just choose a feed bucket at random.

Like many mammals that are hunted by predators（捕食者）, horses can rotate（旋转）their ears through almost 180 degrees - but Ms Wathan said that in our "human-centric" view of the world, we had overlooked the importance of these very mobile ears in animal communication.

"It seems there's something in the visual clues----from both the eyes and the ears-----that are really important," she told BBC News. "Horses have quite rich social lives and relationships with other horses, so they're a good species to look at this in." And the more we look at communication across different species, the more we can consider what might have promoted the evolution of sophisticated communication and social skills."

【1】Why does a horse rotate its ears?

A. To tell each other where they can go for the buckets.

B. To be curious about what the other horse is thinking.

C. To warn the other horse when an attacker is coming closer.

D. To express its hope to build up social relations with others.

【2】Why did the researchers use the life-sized photograph of a horse in the experiment?

A. To help develop horses’ complex skills.

B. To lead other horses to feed themselves.

C. To make the horses in the experiment excited.

D. To provide clues for the horses in the experiment.

【3】Why are ears and eyes important to horses?

A. They can find the feeding buckets more easily with ears and eyes.

B. With ears and eyes they can escape from dangers more easily.

C. With ears and eyes they can communicate with other horses.

D. Horses have quite rich social lives with ears and eyes.

【4】What can be the best title of the passage?

A. Rotary Ears Serve as Communication Tools.

B. Horses Have More Social Skills than Other Species.

C. Experiments with Horses’ Ears.

D. Fundamental Skills of Horses.

【题目】 The guide was enthusiastic and knowledgeable and we spent a lovely evening wandering into places which we ________ straight past otherwise.

A. had walked B. were walking

C. would have walked D. must have walked
