4、    Excerpt: ( from How Do Animals Move?)

Many animals scurry up tree trunks to escape enemies or find food. Some live in the treetops. Many of these animals are not only expert climbers, but they also have found interesting ways to get from tree to tree.

   How Do Animals Adapt? and How Do Animals Move? are comprehensive explorations of animal adaptations and movement for young readers. Both are part of a 21 book series, The Science of Living Things.

   In How Do Animals Adapt? readers learn how animals adapt to survive with respect not only to climate, darkness, food and defenses but also to offspring and people. These adaptations are well explained in double page spreads (跨报刊两版的文章) with examples clearly depicted (描绘) in photographs and diagrams and developed through their accompanying captions (图片文字说明).

   As the title suggests, movement is the focus of How Do Animals Move? Beginning with a description of the explanation of movement, the reader is exposed to the many different ways of animals movement in the air, on land, under ground and in the water. Several unconventional (新奇的) variations (e.g. looping of inchworms, the rectilinear motion of snakes) are included. Once again, the photographs and diagrams plainly support the double page spread discussions of animal movement.

   The language of both titles is simple enough for young readers without talking down to them. In both books, terminology (术语) is featured in bold. Some of these words are explained in the basic glossary(术语汇编)while the majority are explained clearly in the text. Many of these terms provide readers with some fascinating, uncommon words (e.g. brachiation, potassium, skein, and estimate). As do many of Kalman’s book, both of these titles have a table of contents, glossary and index (索引) which are all enough to introduce young readers to the nature of these tools.

   Both titles would make excellent additions to any science collection for young readers.

 

64. The passage is a/an______________.

   A. report                  B. review           C. advertisement        D. journal

65. What’s “excerpt” at the beginning of the passage?

   A. An introduction to some games.           B. Readers’ comment on the books.

   C. Advice on how to read the books.        D. A short piece of writing from the books.

66. What help to understand the articles in the books?

   A. Photographs and diagrams.                  B. Contents, glossary and index.

   C. Terminology and its explanations.         D. Animal adaptations and movement.

67. What do we know about the two books?

 A. They are in high demand.                   B. They are easy to understand.

    C. They have got confusing titles.            D. They are good choices for novel-readers.
