第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
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。
A
Scientists at Ryal Hllway, University f Lndn and Queen Mary, University f Lndn have discvered that bees learn t fly the shrtest pssible rute between flwers even if they discver the flwers in a different rder. Bees are effectively slving the “traveling salesman prblem”, and they are the first creatures fund t d this.
The traveling salesman must find the shrtest rute that allws him t visit all lcatins n his rute. Cmputers slve it by cmparing the length f all pssible rutes and chsing the shrtest, and it can keep cmputers busy fr days. Hwever, bees slve it withut cmputer assistance using a brain the size f grass seed. Dr. Nigel Raine, frm the Schl f Bilgical Sciences at Ryal Hllway explains,“Bees slve traveling salesman prblems every day. They visit flwers at multiple lcatins and because bees use lts f energy t fly, they find a rute which keeps flying t a minimum.”
The team used the cmputer t cntrl artificial flwers t test whether bees wuld fllw a rute defined by the rder in which they discvered the flwers r if they wuld find the shrtest rute. After explring the lcatin f the flwers, bees quickly learned t fly the shrtest rute.
As well as imprving ur understanding f hw bees mve arund the landscape pllinating (授粉) crps and wild flwers,this research,which is due t be published in The American Naturalist, has ther applicatins. Our lifestyle relies n netwrks such as traffic n the rads, infrmatin flw n the Web and business supply chains. By understanding hw bees can slve their prblems with such a tiny brain, we can imprve ur management f these everyday netwrks withut needing lts f cmputer time. Dr. Raine adds,“Despite their tiny brains,bees are capable f extrardinary feats f behavir. We need t understand hw they can slve the traveling salesman prblem withut a cmputer.”
语篇解读:英国的科学家发现,蜜蜂在花丛中飞行时,总是能够找到最近的路线,这个“销售员旅行难题”即使用电脑也需要好几天才能解决。

The schl is ne f the Super Science High Schls allwed by the Ministry f Educatin, Culture, Sprts, Science, and Technlgy, where students are given an pprtunity t study science at an advanced level. Here, students use the same type f hitech experimental labratries as thse fund at universities. In these labs, they cnduct experiments and research in new fields f study nt fund in textbks. As part f this science curse, the students, with the help f Hirshima University, used a machine called sequencer(音序器),and ver the curse f a year and a half they succeeded in decding(翻译)the DNA. They then presented their results t academic grups. Achieving a wrld first might sund very wnderful, but the prcess f decding the DNA invlved very hard wrk. The students were als respnsible fr maintaining the equipment, and they had t read difficult research papers and put in extra study beynd their regular schlwrk.
“Researchers need t wrk hard. The wrk was tiring, but the students wrked twards their ambitius gal f achieving a wrld first. They have a great sense f achievement, and the number f students wh hpe t becme bilgists has increased,” said Taruma Akinri, wh is in charge f the science curse.
In additin t the results being added t the scientific cmmunity, the students' research paper will be translated int English and made available verseas. Mrever, the students have decided t take n a new challenge in DNA decding.
