“Global warming could make humans shorter,” warn scientists who claim to have found evidence that it caused the world's first horses to shrink(收缩) nearly 50 million years ago. In fact, a team from the universities of Florida and Nebraska says it has found a link between the Earth heating up and the size of mammals – horses, in this case.

The scientists used fossils to follow the evolution of horses from their earliest appearance 56 million years ago. As temperature went up,their size went down, and vice versa(反之亦然);“ At one point they were as small as a house cat,” said Dr Jonathan Bloch, curator(博物馆长) of the Florida Museum of Natural History, which was quoted by the "Daily Mail" as saying.

The scientists say that the current warming could have the same effect on mammals and could even make humans smaller."Horses started out small, about the size of a small dog . What's surprising is that after they first appeared, they then became even smaller and then dramatically increased in size, and that exactly corresponds to the global warming event, followed by cooling”

"It had been known that mammals were small during that time and that it was warm, but we hadn't realized that temperature specifically was driving the evolution of body size," Dr Bloch said in the "Science" journal.

1.How did scientists find out the horses’ earliest appearance millions of years ago?

A. searching the data on the net

B. sorting through the pictures of ancient times

C. using fossils to follow the evolution

D. analyzing the related images

2.What can we infer form the passage?

A. As temperatures went up, horses dramatically increased in size

B. The temperature has no effect on mammals’ evolution

C. As temperatures went up, horses’ size went down

3.Which is the most closest meaning to the underlined words most probably mean _______.

Food labels are such a mess that the government is redesigning them, as the ingredient(营养成分) lists are usually too confusing. As a result, a shopper could spend hours in a grocery store watching, calculating, and comparing, and still could not get it right. ShopWell is trying to help by allowing consumers to scan food labels and receive understandable and personalized information.

Here’s how it works. Register for ShopWell, and enter your age and gender. Add your goals (General health? Or are you trying to lose weight?). Then, note what you want in your diet, such as protein or iron, and what you want to avoid(added sugar, say). Add your allergies(过敏的物质) and things you cannot accept, and start scanning.

Then ShopWell will come up with a clearly personal result: green for a food that is good for you; yellow for foods you can enjoy a little; and red for foods you should avoid.

The results are easily understandable and is clean because it’s not mixed with ads. Instead, ShopWell makes money by selling data to supermarkets. Its database contains 350,000 products, the app has been downloaded 1.3 million times, and the company claims a scan every two seconds “in stores such as Walmart, Whole Foods and 7-Eleven,” in the words of marketing manager James Allgood.

One of the first items I scanned was So Delicious Coconut Milk Creamer, which I buy because I’m lactose(乳糖) intolerant. It turns out it’s only a little suitable for me — because of its 1 gram per serving of added sugar. I’m not sure I’ll give it up. But I did ask the app to watch for added sugar, and it’s doing its job.

One drawback to ShopWell is that the scanner often doesn’t work for items from Costco or Trader Joe’s. Meanwhile, Some user reviews say that it doesn’t cover enough allergies.

1. Why do consumers hesitate long when deciding which food to purchase in a shop?

A. Because there are usually an extremely wide variety of food in the shop.

B. Because food labels in the shop are in such a mess that they need redesigning.

C. Because consumers desire to scan food labels for understandable information.

D. Because consumers can hardly make sense of the information on the food labels.

2.What does the author intend to tell the readers in Paragraph 2?

A. The proper use of ShopWell. B. The function of ShopWell.

C. The development of ShopWell. D. The advantage of ShopWell.

3.How can ShopWell make some profits?

A. By providing its collected data to supermarkets.

B. By selling 350,000 products of its own.

C. By downloading the app 1.3 million times.

D. By following the words of marketing manager James Allgood.

4.What does the underlined “drawback” in the last paragraph probably mean?

A. ScannerB. Disadvantage

C. BenefitD. Item
