It’s said that cats are nt just pets t us all these years. They are, in fact, learning frm their wners and taking them as mdels. Scary, huh?
A new study frm the University f Messina shws that indr cats wh live clsely t their wners cpy the lives f their wners. Fr example, they sleep at the same time and eat at the same time. Just like a parent fr a child, the same is true fr a cat wner and his cat.
Many wners think their cats are as family members, s they spend much time with cats, hping t give the best care and lve fr their cats. This is ne f reasns the cats learn frm their wner’s actins.
Anther reasn is that cats are clever animals with a lng memry. Jane Brunt, directr f the Catalyst Cuncil, tld Discvery News. “Cats watch us and ntice ur actins, knwing where their fd is and what time t eat meals, where the washing areas are and hw t pen the cupbard dr that’s clsed.”
A new study als shws that cats understand 25—35 basic men’s wrds, such as fd, eat, sit, n, stay, and stand. If wners train a cat t learn these wrds, cats will gt clser t them. But in fact, cats can’t understand ur ‘mews’.
S try t d better when yu are in frnt f cats. If yu spend a lt f time searching the kitchen, yur cat will cpy yu and take fd t its bwl fr the night meal, t. That’s why cat wners and cats verweight rates ften seem t synchrnize.

If yu’ve ever seen an alpaca (羊驼), yu might just think they’re fuzzy and cute. Nw, it lks like these animals might be able t help scientists find a vaccine (疫苗) fr COVID-19.
Australian scientists are studying alpacas. These animals have a unique immune respnse (免疫反应). Scientists used t use them t d research n viruses (病毒) like HIV. Nw they have fund that when alpacas are infected (感染) with COVID-19, their bdies react in a special way.
“Alpacas and animals like them (such as camels) actually create tw different types f antibdies (抗体). One is similar t the type we (humans) make, but they als create these things called nanbdies (纳米抗体),” said Michael James, a researcher wh tk part in the study.
The alpacas prduced these nanbdies after researchers put a COVID-19 viral spike prtein (棘突蛋白) int their bdies. It is this prtein that allws COVID-19 t infect ur cells (细胞). The nanbdies, hwever, stp infectin frm happening by blcking (阻隔) the prtein.
Yu can think f ur cells as “lcks”— and the viral spike prtein as a “key”. James said the nanbdies plug up the “lck” s that the “key” cannt get in.
Althugh the results lk gd s far, it will take sme time t prduce a vaccine based n the findings. The nanbdies require far mre research t make sure they are bth effective and safe. Since the nanbdies are new, they must be tested very strictly in a labratry befre they can be tried n humans, accrding t James.

The Explding Lakes f Camern
What cmes t mind when yu think f a lake? Yu prbably imagine a pretty scene with blue water, birds, and fish. Fr the peple in the nrthwestern Camern, hwever, the image is very different. Fr them, lakes may mean terrible disasters. In 1984, pisnus gases explded ut f Lake Mnun and came dwn int the nearby villages, killing thirty-seven peple. Tw years later, Lake Nys erupted a clud f gases rlled dwn the hills and int the valleys and killed 1,700 peple.
Lake Nys and Lake Mnun are crater (火山口) lakes. They were frmed when water cllected in the craters f ld vlcanes. The vlcanes under Lake Nys and Lake Mnun are nt active anymre. Hwever, pisnus gases frm the center f the earth cntinue t flw up thrugh cracks in the bttm f the lake. This is nrmal in a crater lake. In mst crater lakes, these gases are released ften because the water “turns ver” regularly. That is, the water frm the bttm f the lake rises and mixes with the water at the tp, allwing the gases t escape slwly.
Hwever, in Lakes Nys and Mnun, there is n regular turning ver. N ne knws the reasn fr this fact, but as a result, these lakes have mre gases tapped at the bttm than ther crater lakes. In fact, scientists wh have studied Lakes Nys and Mnun have fund 16,000 times mre gases. When a strng wind, cl weather, a strm, r a landslide (滑坡) causes the water t turn ver suddenly, the gases escape in a vilent explsin.
In the past, n ne knew when the gases might explde, s there was n way fr the villagers t escape disaster. Nw scientists frm the United States, France, and Camern have fund a way t reduce the gas pressure at the bttm f Lake Nys. They std a 672-ft plastic pipe in the middle f the lake, with ne end f the pipe near the bttm and the ther end in the air. Near the tp f the pipe, the team put several hles that culd be pened r clsed by a cmputer. Nw, when the gas pressure gets t high, the hles are pened and sme f the gas-filled water shts up thrugh the pipe int the air like a funtain. With less pressure, a disastrus explsin is much less likely. Hwever, the scientists are nt sure that ne pipe will be enugh t prevent explsins. They hpe t put in thers sn and they plan t install a similar pipe and a cmputer system at Lake Mnun as well.
T prtect peple nearby until all f the pipes are in place, the scientists have installed early warning systems at bth lakes. If the gas pressure rises t a dangerus level, cmputers will set ff lud sirens (警报) and bright lights t warn the peple in the villages. That way, they will have time t escape frm the dangerus gases.
56．What will happen when Lake Nys and Lake Mnun explde?

There are desert plants which survive the dry seasn in the frm f inactive seeds. There are als desert insects which survive as inactive larvae(幼虫). In additin, difficult as it is t believe, there are desert fish which can survive thrugh years f drught in the frm f inactive eggs. These are the shrimps(虾) that live in the Mjave Desert, an intensely dry regin in the suth-west f the United State where shade temperatures f ver 50℃ are ften recrded.
The eggs f the Mjave shrimps are the size and have the appearance f grains f sand. When sufficient spring rain falls t frm a lake, nce every tw t five years, these eggs hatch. Then the water is sn filled with millins f tiny shrimps abut a millimeter lng which feed n tiny plant and animal rganisms which als grw in the temprary desert lake. Within a week, the shrimps grw frm their riginal 1 millimeter t a length f abut 1.5 centimeters.
Thrughut the time when the shrimps are rapidly maturing, the water in the lake equally rapidly evaprates. Therefre, fr the shrimps it is a race against time. By the 12th day, hwever, when they are abut 3 centimeters lng, hundreds f tiny eggs frm n the underbdies f the females. Usually by this time, all that remains f the lake is a large, muddy patch f wet sil. On the 13th day and the next, during the final hurs f their brief lives, the shrimps lay their eggs in the mud. Then, having ensured that their species will survive, the shrimps die as the last f the water evaprates.
If sufficient rain falls the next year t frm anther lake, the eggs hatch, and nce again the shrimps pass rapidly thrugh their cycle f grwth, adulthd, egg-laying, and death. Sme years there is insufficient rain t frm a lake; in this case, the eggs will remain drmant fr anther year, r even lnger if necessary. Very, very ccasinally, perhaps twice in a hundred years, sufficient rain falls t frm a deep lake that lasts a mnth r mre. In this case, the species passes thrugh tw cycles f grwth, egg-laying, and death. Thus, n such ccasins, the species multiplies cnsiderably, which further ensures its survival.
61．Which f the fllwing is the mst distinctive feature f Mjave shrimps?
A．They live a brief and tugh life.
B．They feed n plant and animal rganisms.
C．Their eggs can survive years f drught.
D．They lay their eggs in the mud.

As the nvel crna-virus（新型冠状病毒）spreads thrughut China and the rest f the wrld, an imprtant questin has yet t be answered：where did the virus cme frm?
The latest study shwed that panglins（穿山甲）may be an intermediate（中间的）hst f virus, accrding t Xinhua. Hwever, sme peple thught bats may be the riginal（起初的）cause.
“We dn’t knw the surce（来源）yet, but it’s pssible that this is a bat rigin crna-virus, said Peter Dazsak, president f Ec-Health Alliance, an envirnmental nnprfit（非营利机构）”, accrding t The New Yrk Times, “When yu lk at the genetic sequence（基因序列）f the virus, and yu match it up with every knwn crna-virus, the clsest nes are frm bats.” Dazsak als tld CNN.
S why are bats the surce f s many deadly kinds f viruses and why dn’t they suffer frm any symptms（症状）? Bats can live lng and live with millins f ther bats in caves, where they can spread the virus far and wide. As the nly flying mammal, their bdy temperature is high, similar t a fever. This fact may lead t bats’ special immune system（免疫系统）in prtecting them frm the ill effects f viruses.
It’s surprising t ntice that the virus utbreak was traced（追溯）t the Huanan Seafd Market in Wuhan. Peple culd buy n bats in the market. Hw culd this be? “It seems that anther animal hst is acting as an intermediate hst between bats and humans,” said Wu Guizhen, f the Chinese Center fr Disease Cntrl and Preventin, accrding t Live Science.
But are bats truly t blame（责怪）fr the virus r shuld we be blaming urselves? It’s the fault（错误）f humans fr decreasing（减少）the distance between us and virus-carrying bats. Bats are an imprtant animal in ur ecsystem（生态系统）when it cmes t pllinating（授粉）many fruits such as manges, bananas and avcads. We need t allw them t cntinue pllinatin and keep them away frm ur markets and muths.

B．Panglins are nw cnsidered the mst likely surce.
C．It’s cnfirmed by cmparing surces f several different viruses.
D．Bats have been discvered t be its riginal cause.
81．Why dn’t bats suffer frm the crna-virus?
A．Their lw bdy temperature prtects them.
B．Bats have a special immune system.
C．Bats are the nly flying mammal t live in grups.
