10．（8分）A British explorer is claiming to be the first person to walk the length of the Yangtze River in China.Ash Dykes，from Old Colwyn in North Wales，finished the 6，437﹣kilometer journey by himself.The 28﹣year﹣old said he felt great after crossing the finish line in Shanghai，where he was greeted by his family，the media and Chinese supporters.
The expedition （探险） took them two years to plan and 352 days to complete.At the start of the walk，the destination （目的地） of the Yangtze River was difficult to reach and four members of his team left the expedition before it began because of altitude sickness.There were also fears over the possibility of bear and wolf attacks.
He said he wanted to use his journey to stress （强调） protection projects by partnering with the World Wide Fund for Nature，Green Development Foundation and Water to Go.The explorer said raising environmental awareness during the expedition makes it far more meaningful because he has a great love of the protection of the environment.
The idea of walking along the Yangtze River was planned after Dykes visited China in 2010 and he felt such a journey would take him to "the heart of the country".Dykes said that the journey was not only about challenging himself but about meeting people along the way. "It was about the locals，the different cultures，customs and traditions.It has been amazing." he said.

11．（8分）Recently，researchers have found that dolphins know their own names much like people.Dolphins talk to one another with whistles （口哨） and calls.Scientists have known that the animals also use unusual whistles to name each other.They had thought that dolphins only heard each other's voices.However，the scientists didn't know that dolphins listen for their names too.
To test this idea，the researchers caught 14 dolphins and recorded their name calls.The scientists then copied each dolphin's voice.When the changed recordings were played，the dolphins replied strongly to the names of their relatives and group members.They paid no attention to the names of dolphins they did not know.
Dolphins live in large groups that grow and change.Each dolphin's unusual whistle helps it quickly find a friend or a family member，or call for help.Understanding their calls requires learning.It's a skill that's seen in very few animals，which include humans and elephants.
Elephants，for example，communicate with sound.Their sounds can be heard by other elephants miles away.Dolphins，too，communicate with each other by making sounds like this.Elephants also communicate by moving their head，feet and trunk（象鼻）.In much the same way，dolphins communicate by their movements.They often touch each other to express friendship.
Unlike dolphins，elephants also communicate by their great sense of smell.They can recognize other elephants by the smells they have.
Why do dolphins and elephants share the gift of communication？Scientists think it may be because they are social and smart animals，both have strong family relationship.Now，whether they also have nicknames （绰号） is another question!
（1）What have researchers found about dolphins recently？
A.Dolphins know their own names.
B.Dolphins only hear each other's voices.
C.Dolphins talk to each other like other animals.
D.Dolphins use the same whistles as other animals.
（2）What did theresearchers do before they recorded dolphins' name calls？
A.They copied dolphins' voice.
B.They caught 14 dolphins.
C.They trained the dolphins to whistle.
D.They played the names of other dolphins.
（3）What are the differences between dolphins and elephants in communication？
A.Elephants can communicate by sound
B.Elephants can communicate by smell.
C.Dolphins can communicate by movement.
D.Dolphins can communicate by nicknames.
（4）What is the main purpose of the text？
A.To report some recent research on dolphins.
B.To prove animals' strong family relationship.
C.To study how to communicate with clever animals.
D.To introduce findings of some smart social animals.
12．（8分）Your shoes are changing your feet.The ankles （脚踝） of people who habitually wear shoes are different to those people who often walk barefoot.In many modern societies，people often wear shoes from a young age.However，many people around the world often go barefoot，or wear only very thin footwear.
"We know that there are some differences in the feet of modern humans，due to the use of shoes，" says Rita Sorrentino at the University of Bologna in Italy.But most findings before related to the front and middle of the foot.She and her team have focused on the ankle instead.They studied 142 ankle bones from 11 populations from North America，Africa and Europe.These included sandal （草鞋）﹣wearing Nguni farmers in Africa，people living in New York and fossilized bones （骨骼化石） from Stone Age hunter﹣gatherers.
The hunter﹣gatherers' ankle bones were shorter than those people living in modern cities，and there were other differences in the shape. "They are mostly related to the behaviors of wearing and moving，" says Sorrentino.
The hunter﹣gatherers walked barefoot for long distances every day over natural areas.Their ankles were relatively flexible （灵活的）. ▲ ，people who live in big cities，who wear narrow or small foot wear and walk short distances on flat roads，have more inflexible ankles.
It's believed that people have been wearing shoes for the past 10，000 years，says Sorrentino.For example，a sandal from a Missouri cave may be 8，300 years old.Early shoes were all fairly soft，so wouldn't have restricted the motion of the ankle much.
It is an open question if shoes have disadvantages，but Sorrentino thinks that modern shoes probably cause our bones to become weaker and easier to break.
（1）What can we learn from Paragraph 2？
A．Why people wear differently.
B．What the Sorrentino team studied.
C．Who often wears thin footwear.
D．How human shoes have changed.
（2）Which of the following can be put in the ▲ ？
A．In fact
B．For example
C．By the way
D．However
（3）It can be inferred from the passage that .
A．human behaviors usually have influence on ankle bones
B．the hunter﹣gatherers' ankle bones have been easily broken
C．shoes have much more disadvantages than advantages
D．people in modern societies shouldn't wear shoes anymore
（4）The passage is mainly about .
A．the development of ankle bones
B．the differences between shoes
C．the relations between feet and shoes
D．the history of human shoes
第二节 下面文章中有五处需要添加小标题。请从以下选项（A、 B、C. D、E和F）中选出符合各段意思的小标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。
13．（10分）
A.Get yourself out of the house.
B.Add healthy fats to your diet.
C.Keep junk food out of the house.
D.Do a fun physical activity that you enjoy.
E.Drunk plenty of water to stay hydrated （补水）.
F.Write in a diary to keep a record of your thoughts.
Food is an important part of everyone's life，but it can become a problem when it's all you think about.If you are trying to make a change in your diet，you may be fighting against continuous thoughts about food that you are hungering for.To keep food off your mind，follow the following tips and start a healthy relationship with food.
（1）
Sometimes your body gets some wrong message and tells you that you're hungry when you really just need some water.Keep a water bottle with you during the day and drink water very often.If you start to think about food，drink some water to see if it makes youti not feel hungry anymore.
（2）
If you buy things like cookies，chips，and soda，you're probably going to think about them while they are sitting in your kitchen.Avoid the temptation by only buying healthy foods.Create a shopping list before you go shopping and stick to it as much as you can.Never go to the food store while you are hungry.This can cause you to buy unhealthy food that you are hungering for.
（3）
If you're starting to think about food，try getting up and going for a ride，a run，or even a round of soccer with your friends.Exercise is a great way to keep your mind and body occupied while meeting your fitness goals.Try to find a physical activity that you like doing so that you look forward to it.Hiking，rock climbing，weight training，and swimming are all great activities to get your body moving.
（4）
If you're just sitting in your home，you are more likely to think about all the food that is in your kitchen.Go for a walk around the block，run some errands，or head to a movie to keep your mind off food.If you have a pet，take them for a short walk around your neighborhood as an excuse to get out of the house.
（5）
Sometimes your brain may still be focused on food.Try keeping a diary to write in whenever you feel like food is on your mind.Write down what you did that day，how you are feeling，and what your goals are.Get creative with your diary by adding pictures or stickers as decoration.Use a pocket﹣sized diary to keep with you whenever you might need it.

（2）细节判断题。根据He said he wanted to use his journey to stress （强调） protection projects by partnering with the World Wide Fund for Nature，Green Development Foundation and Water to Go.The explorer said raising environmental awareness during the expedition makes it far more meaningful because he has a great love of the protection of the environment.（他说，他希望通过与世界自然基金会、绿色发展基金会和水资源基金会合作，利用这次探险之旅来强调保护项目。探险家说，在探险过程中提高环境意识使之更有意义，因为他热爱环境保护。）可推断出这次旅行的目的是：提高人们的环保意识。故选B。

11．（8分）Recently，researchers have found that dolphins know their own names much like people.Dolphins talk to one another with whistles （口哨） and calls.Scientists have known that the animals also use unusual whistles to name each other.They had thought that dolphins only heard each other's voices.However，the scientists didn't know that dolphins listen for their names too.
To test this idea，the researchers caught 14 dolphins and recorded their name calls.The scientists then copied each dolphin's voice.When the changed recordings were played，the dolphins replied strongly to the names of their relatives and group members.They paid no attention to the names of dolphins they did not know.
Dolphins live in large groups that grow and change.Each dolphin's unusual whistle helps it quickly find a friend or a family member，or call for help.Understanding their calls requires learning.It's a skill that's seen in very few animals，which include humans and elephants.
Elephants，for example，communicate with sound.Their sounds can be heard by other elephants miles away.Dolphins，too，communicate with each other by making sounds like this.Elephants also communicate by moving their head，feet and trunk（象鼻）.In much the same way，dolphins communicate by their movements.They often touch each other to express friendship.
Unlike dolphins，elephants also communicate by their great sense of smell.They can recognize other elephants by the smells they have.
Why do dolphins and elephants share the gift of communication？Scientists think it may be because they are social and smart animals，both have strong family relationship.Now，whether they also have nicknames （绰号） is another question!
（1）What have researchers found about dolphins recently？ A
A.Dolphins know their own names.
B.Dolphins only hear each other's voices.
C.Dolphins talk to each other like other animals.
D.Dolphins use the same whistles as other animals.
（2）What did theresearchers do before they recorded dolphins' name calls？ B
A.They copied dolphins' voice.
B.They caught 14 dolphins.
C.They trained the dolphins to whistle.
D.They played the names of other dolphins.
（3）What are the differences between dolphins and elephants in communication？ B
A.Elephants can communicate by sound
B.Elephants can communicate by smell.
C.Dolphins can communicate by movement.
D.Dolphins can communicate by nicknames.
（4）What is the main purpose of the text？ D
A.To report some recent research on dolphins.
B.To prove animals' strong family relationship.
C.To study how to communicate with clever animals.
D.To introduce findings of some smart social animals.
【分析】这篇短文主要介绍海豚和大象这两种聪明的群居动物与同伴之间的交流方式。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据Recently，researchers have found that dolphins know their own names much like people.（最近，研究人员发现海豚就像人类一样知道自己的名字。）可知，研究人员发现海豚知道自己的名字。故选A。
（2）细节理解题。根据To test this idea，the researchers caught 14 dolphins and recorded their name calls.（为了验证这个想法，研究人员捕捉了14只海豚并记录了它们的叫声。）可知，研究人员在记录海豚的名字之前抓了14只海豚。故选B。
（3）细节理解题。根据Unlike dolphins，elephants also communicate by their great sense of smell.（和海豚不同的是，大象也通过它们灵敏的嗅觉进行交流。）可知，海豚和大象在交流时不同之处是大象能够通过嗅觉交流。故选B。
（4）推理归纳题。通读全文，可知科学家们认为海豚和大象是聪明的群居动物，并讲述了它们的交流方式和对自己名字的识别等，因此本文的主要目的是选项D"介绍一些聪明的群居动物的发现。"故选D。

12．（8分）Your shoes are changing your feet.The ankles （脚踝） of people who habitually wear shoes are different to those people who often walk barefoot.In many modern societies，people often wear shoes from a young age.However，many people around the world often go barefoot，or wear only very thin footwear.
"We know that there are some differences in the feet of modern humans，due to the use of shoes，" says Rita Sorrentino at the University of Bologna in Italy.But most findings before related to the front and middle of the foot.She and her team have focused on the ankle instead.They studied 142 ankle bones from 11 populations from North America，Africa and Europe.These included sandal （草鞋）﹣wearing Nguni farmers in Africa，people living in New York and fossilized bones （骨骼化石） from Stone Age hunter﹣gatherers.
The hunter﹣gatherers' ankle bones were shorter than those people living in modern cities，and there were other differences in the shape. "They are mostly related to the behaviors of wearing and moving，" says Sorrentino.
The hunter﹣gatherers walked barefoot for long distances every day over natural areas.Their ankles were relatively flexible （灵活的）. ▲ ，people who live in big cities，who wear narrow or small foot wear and walk short distances on flat roads，have more inflexible ankles.
It's believed that people have been wearing shoes for the past 10，000 years，says Sorrentino.For example，a sandal from a Missouri cave may be 8，300 years old.Early shoes were all fairly soft，so wouldn't have restricted the motion of the ankle much.
It is an open question if shoes have disadvantages，but Sorrentino thinks that modern shoes probably cause our bones to become weaker and easier to break.
（1）What can we learn from Paragraph 2？ B
A．Why people wear differently.
B．What the Sorrentino team studied.
C．Who often wears thin footwear.
D．How human shoes have changed.
（2）Which of the following can be put in the ▲ ？ D
A．In fact
B．For example
C．By the way
D．However
（3）It can be inferred from the passage that A .
A．human behaviors usually have influence on ankle bones
B．the hunter﹣gatherers' ankle bones have been easily broken
C．shoes have much more disadvantages than advantages
D．people in modern societies shouldn't wear shoes anymore
（4）The passage is mainly about C .
A．the development of ankle bones
B．the differences between shoes
C．the relations between feet and shoes
D．the history of human shoes
【分析】本文主要讲了习惯穿鞋人的脚踝和经常赤脚走路的不同，现代鞋子可能会导致我们的骨骼变得更脆弱，更容易骨折。
【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据第二段"She and her team have focused on the ankle instead.They studied 142 ankle bones from 11 populations from North America，Africa and Europe（她和她的团队将注意力集中在脚踝上。他们研究了来自北美、非洲和欧洲11个种群的142块踝骨）"可知，索伦蒂诺和她的团队研究了来自北美、非洲和欧洲11个种群的142块踝骨，由此可得知索伦蒂诺团队研究的内容。故选B。
（2）推理判断题。根据后句" people who live in big cities，who wear narrow or small foot wear and walk short distances on flat roads，have more inflexible ankles. （居住在大城市的人，穿着窄脚或小脚，在平坦的道路上短距离行走，脚踝更不灵活。）"与前句"Their ankles were relatively flexible（他们的脚踝相对灵活）"存在转折关系可知，此处应该用however。故选D。
（3）推理判断题。根据第三段内容" The hunter﹣gatherers' ankle bones were shorter than those people living in modern cities，and there were other differences in the shape. "They are mostly related to the behaviors of wearing and moving，" says Sorrentino. （狩猎采集者的踝骨比生活在现代城市中的人短，在形状上还有其他差异。索伦蒂诺说："它们主要与穿着和移动的行为有关。"）"可知，人类的行为通常会影响脚踝骨。故选A。
（4）主旨大意题。本文主要讲了习惯穿鞋人的脚踝和经常赤脚走路的不同，主要讲了脚与鞋的关系。故选C。

10．（8分）A British explorer is claiming to be the first person to walk the length of the Yangtze River in China.Ash Dykes，from Old Colwyn in North Wales，finished the 6，437﹣kilometer journey by himself.The 28﹣year﹣old said he felt great after crossing the finish line in Shanghai，where he was greeted by his family，the media and Chinese supporters.
The expedition （探险） took them two years to plan and 352 days to complete.At the start of the walk，the destination （目的地） of the Yangtze River was difficult to reach and four members of his team left the expedition before it began because of altitude sickness.There were also fears over the possibility of bear and wolf attacks.
He said he wanted to use his journey to stress （强调） protection projects by partnering with the World Wide Fund for Nature，Green Development Foundation and Water to Go.The explorer said raising environmental awareness during the expedition makes it far more meaningful because he has a great love of the protection of the environment.
The idea of walking along the Yangtze River was planned after Dykes visited China in 2010 and he felt such a journey would take him to "the heart of the country".Dykes said that the journey was not only about challenging himself but about meeting people along the way. "It was about the locals，the different cultures，customs and traditions.It has been amazing." he said.

11．（8分）Recently，researchers have found that dolphins know their own names much like people.Dolphins talk to one another with whistles （口哨） and calls.Scientists have known that the animals also use unusual whistles to name each other.They had thought that dolphins only heard each other's voices.However，the scientists didn't know that dolphins listen for their names too.
To test this idea，the researchers caught 14 dolphins and recorded their name calls.The scientists then copied each dolphin's voice.When the changed recordings were played，the dolphins replied strongly to the names of their relatives and group members.They paid no attention to the names of dolphins they did not know.
Dolphins live in large groups that grow and change.Each dolphin's unusual whistle helps it quickly find a friend or a family member，or call for help.Understanding their calls requires learning.It's a skill that's seen in very few animals，which include humans and elephants.
Elephants，for example，communicate with sound.Their sounds can be heard by other elephants miles away.Dolphins，too，communicate with each other by making sounds like this.Elephants also communicate by moving their head，feet and trunk（象鼻）.In much the same way，dolphins communicate by their movements.They often touch each other to express friendship.
Unlike dolphins，elephants also communicate by their great sense of smell.They can recognize other elephants by the smells they have.
Why do dolphins and elephants share the gift of communication？Scientists think it may be because they are social and smart animals，both have strong family relationship.Now，whether they also have nicknames （绰号） is another question!
（1）What have researchers found about dolphins recently？
A.Dolphins know their own names.
B.Dolphins only hear each other's voices.
C.Dolphins talk to each other like other animals.
D.Dolphins use the same whistles as other animals.
（2）What did theresearchers do before they recorded dolphins' name calls？
A.They copied dolphins' voice.
B.They caught 14 dolphins.
C.They trained the dolphins to whistle.
D.They played the names of other dolphins.
（3）What are the differences between dolphins and elephants in communication？
A.Elephants can communicate by sound
B.Elephants can communicate by smell.
C.Dolphins can communicate by movement.
D.Dolphins can communicate by nicknames.
（4）What is the main purpose of the text？
A.To report some recent research on dolphins.
B.To prove animals' strong family relationship.
C.To study how to communicate with clever animals.
D.To introduce findings of some smart social animals.
12．（8分）Your shoes are changing your feet.The ankles （脚踝） of people who habitually wear shoes are different to those people who often walk barefoot.In many modern societies，people often wear shoes from a young age.However，many people around the world often go barefoot，or wear only very thin footwear.
"We know that there are some differences in the feet of modern humans，due to the use of shoes，" says Rita Sorrentino at the University of Bologna in Italy.But most findings before related to the front and middle of the foot.She and her team have focused on the ankle instead.They studied 142 ankle bones from 11 populations from North America，Africa and Europe.These included sandal （草鞋）﹣wearing Nguni farmers in Africa，people living in New York and fossilized bones （骨骼化石） from Stone Age hunter﹣gatherers.
The hunter﹣gatherers' ankle bones were shorter than those people living in modern cities，and there were other differences in the shape. "They are mostly related to the behaviors of wearing and moving，" says Sorrentino.
The hunter﹣gatherers walked barefoot for long distances every day over natural areas.Their ankles were relatively flexible （灵活的）. ▲ ，people who live in big cities，who wear narrow or small foot wear and walk short distances on flat roads，have more inflexible ankles.
It's believed that people have been wearing shoes for the past 10，000 years，says Sorrentino.For example，a sandal from a Missouri cave may be 8，300 years old.Early shoes were all fairly soft，so wouldn't have restricted the motion of the ankle much.
It is an open question if shoes have disadvantages，but Sorrentino thinks that modern shoes probably cause our bones to become weaker and easier to break.
（1）What can we learn from Paragraph 2？
A．Why people wear differently.
B．What the Sorrentino team studied.
C．Who often wears thin footwear.
D．How human shoes have changed.
（2）Which of the following can be put in the ▲ ？
A．In fact
B．For example
C．By the way
D．However
（3）It can be inferred from the passage that .
A．human behaviors usually have influence on ankle bones
B．the hunter﹣gatherers' ankle bones have been easily broken
C．shoes have much more disadvantages than advantages
D．people in modern societies shouldn't wear shoes anymore
（4）The passage is mainly about .
A．the development of ankle bones
B．the differences between shoes
C．the relations between feet and shoes
D．the history of human shoes
第二节 下面文章中有五处需要添加小标题。请从以下选项（A、 B、C. D、E和F）中选出符合各段意思的小标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。
13．（10分）
A.Get yourself out of the house.
B.Add healthy fats to your diet.
C.Keep junk food out of the house.
D.Do a fun physical activity that you enjoy.
E.Drunk plenty of water to stay hydrated （补水）.
F.Write in a diary to keep a record of your thoughts.
Food is an important part of everyone's life，but it can become a problem when it's all you think about.If you are trying to make a change in your diet，you may be fighting against continuous thoughts about food that you are hungering for.To keep food off your mind，follow the following tips and start a healthy relationship with food.
（1）
Sometimes your body gets some wrong message and tells you that you're hungry when you really just need some water.Keep a water bottle with you during the day and drink water very often.If you start to think about food，drink some water to see if it makes youti not feel hungry anymore.
（2）
If you buy things like cookies，chips，and soda，you're probably going to think about them while they are sitting in your kitchen.Avoid the temptation by only buying healthy foods.Create a shopping list before you go shopping and stick to it as much as you can.Never go to the food store while you are hungry.This can cause you to buy unhealthy food that you are hungering for.
（3）
If you're starting to think about food，try getting up and going for a ride，a run，or even a round of soccer with your friends.Exercise is a great way to keep your mind and body occupied while meeting your fitness goals.Try to find a physical activity that you like doing so that you look forward to it.Hiking，rock climbing，weight training，and swimming are all great activities to get your body moving.
（4）
If you're just sitting in your home，you are more likely to think about all the food that is in your kitchen.Go for a walk around the block，run some errands，or head to a movie to keep your mind off food.If you have a pet，take them for a short walk around your neighborhood as an excuse to get out of the house.
（5）
Sometimes your brain may still be focused on food.Try keeping a diary to write in whenever you feel like food is on your mind.Write down what you did that day，how you are feeling，and what your goals are.Get creative with your diary by adding pictures or stickers as decoration.Use a pocket﹣sized diary to keep with you whenever you might need it.

【分析】本文主要讲述了英国探险家Ash Dykes一个人完成了6437公里的长江之行的故事。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据At the start of the walk，the destination （目的地） of the Yangtze River was difficult to reach and four members of his team left the expedition before it began because of altitude sickness.（在开始步行的时候，长江的目的地很难到达，他的团队的四个队员在探险开始前因为高原反应的原因离开了。）可知他的四个队员因为无法忍受高原反应离开了。故选A。
（2）细节判断题。根据He said he wanted to use his journey to stress （强调） protection projects by partnering with the World Wide Fund for Nature，Green Development Foundation and Water to Go.The explorer said raising environmental awareness during the expedition makes it far more meaningful because he has a great love of the protection of the environment.（他说，他希望通过与世界自然基金会、绿色发展基金会和水资源基金会合作，利用这次探险之旅来强调保护项目。探险家说，在探险过程中提高环境意识使之更有意义，因为他热爱环境保护。）可推断出这次旅行的目的是：提高人们的环保意识。故选B。
（3）推理判断题。根据Dykes said that the journey was not only about challenging himself but about meeting people along the way.（Dykes说，这次旅行不仅是挑战自己，一路上还结识很多人。）可推断出Dykes认为他的旅程很有挑战性，也很有意义。故选D。

11．（8分）Recently，researchers have found that dolphins know their own names much like people.Dolphins talk to one another with whistles （口哨） and calls.Scientists have known that the animals also use unusual whistles to name each other.They had thought that dolphins only heard each other's voices.However，the scientists didn't know that dolphins listen for their names too.
To test this idea，the researchers caught 14 dolphins and recorded their name calls.The scientists then copied each dolphin's voice.When the changed recordings were played，the dolphins replied strongly to the names of their relatives and group members.They paid no attention to the names of dolphins they did not know.
Dolphins live in large groups that grow and change.Each dolphin's unusual whistle helps it quickly find a friend or a family member，or call for help.Understanding their calls requires learning.It's a skill that's seen in very few animals，which include humans and elephants.
Elephants，for example，communicate with sound.Their sounds can be heard by other elephants miles away.Dolphins，too，communicate with each other by making sounds like this.Elephants also communicate by moving their head，feet and trunk（象鼻）.In much the same way，dolphins communicate by their movements.They often touch each other to express friendship.
Unlike dolphins，elephants also communicate by their great sense of smell.They can recognize other elephants by the smells they have.
Why do dolphins and elephants share the gift of communication？Scientists think it may be because they are social and smart animals，both have strong family relationship.Now，whether they also have nicknames （绰号） is another question!
（1）What have researchers found about dolphins recently？ A
A.Dolphins know their own names.
B.Dolphins only hear each other's voices.
C.Dolphins talk to each other like other animals.
D.Dolphins use the same whistles as other animals.
（2）What did theresearchers do before they recorded dolphins' name calls？ B
A.They copied dolphins' voice.
B.They caught 14 dolphins.
C.They trained the dolphins to whistle.
D.They played the names of other dolphins.
（3）What are the differences between dolphins and elephants in communication？ B
A.Elephants can communicate by sound
B.Elephants can communicate by smell.
C.Dolphins can communicate by movement.
D.Dolphins can communicate by nicknames.
（4）What is the main purpose of the text？ D
A.To report some recent research on dolphins.
B.To prove animals' strong family relationship.
C.To study how to communicate with clever animals.
D.To introduce findings of some smart social animals.
【分析】这篇短文主要介绍海豚和大象这两种聪明的群居动物与同伴之间的交流方式。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据Recently，researchers have found that dolphins know their own names much like people.（最近，研究人员发现海豚就像人类一样知道自己的名字。）可知，研究人员发现海豚知道自己的名字。故选A。
（2）细节理解题。根据To test this idea，the researchers caught 14 dolphins and recorded their name calls.（为了验证这个想法，研究人员捕捉了14只海豚并记录了它们的叫声。）可知，研究人员在记录海豚的名字之前抓了14只海豚。故选B。
（3）细节理解题。根据Unlike dolphins，elephants also communicate by their great sense of smell.（和海豚不同的是，大象也通过它们灵敏的嗅觉进行交流。）可知，海豚和大象在交流时不同之处是大象能够通过嗅觉交流。故选B。
（4）推理归纳题。通读全文，可知科学家们认为海豚和大象是聪明的群居动物，并讲述了它们的交流方式和对自己名字的识别等，因此本文的主要目的是选项D"介绍一些聪明的群居动物的发现。"故选D。

12．（8分）Your shoes are changing your feet.The ankles （脚踝） of people who habitually wear shoes are different to those people who often walk barefoot.In many modern societies，people often wear shoes from a young age.However，many people around the world often go barefoot，or wear only very thin footwear.
"We know that there are some differences in the feet of modern humans，due to the use of shoes，" says Rita Sorrentino at the University of Bologna in Italy.But most findings before related to the front and middle of the foot.She and her team have focused on the ankle instead.They studied 142 ankle bones from 11 populations from North America，Africa and Europe.These included sandal （草鞋）﹣wearing Nguni farmers in Africa，people living in New York and fossilized bones （骨骼化石） from Stone Age hunter﹣gatherers.
The hunter﹣gatherers' ankle bones were shorter than those people living in modern cities，and there were other differences in the shape. "They are mostly related to the behaviors of wearing and moving，" says Sorrentino.
The hunter﹣gatherers walked barefoot for long distances every day over natural areas.Their ankles were relatively flexible （灵活的）. ▲ ，people who live in big cities，who wear narrow or small foot wear and walk short distances on flat roads，have more inflexible ankles.
It's believed that people have been wearing shoes for the past 10，000 years，says Sorrentino.For example，a sandal from a Missouri cave may be 8，300 years old.Early shoes were all fairly soft，so wouldn't have restricted the motion of the ankle much.
It is an open question if shoes have disadvantages，but Sorrentino thinks that modern shoes probably cause our bones to become weaker and easier to break.
（1）What can we learn from Paragraph 2？ B
A．Why people wear differently.
B．What the Sorrentino team studied.
C．Who often wears thin footwear.
D．How human shoes have changed.
（2）Which of the following can be put in the ▲ ？ D
A．In fact
B．For example
C．By the way
D．However
（3）It can be inferred from the passage that A .
A．human behaviors usually have influence on ankle bones
B．the hunter﹣gatherers' ankle bones have been easily broken
C．shoes have much more disadvantages than advantages
D．people in modern societies shouldn't wear shoes anymore
（4）The passage is mainly about C .
A．the development of ankle bones
B．the differences between shoes
C．the relations between feet and shoes
D．the history of human shoes
【分析】本文主要讲了习惯穿鞋人的脚踝和经常赤脚走路的不同，现代鞋子可能会导致我们的骨骼变得更脆弱，更容易骨折。
【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据第二段"She and her team have focused on the ankle instead.They studied 142 ankle bones from 11 populations from North America，Africa and Europe（她和她的团队将注意力集中在脚踝上。他们研究了来自北美、非洲和欧洲11个种群的142块踝骨）"可知，索伦蒂诺和她的团队研究了来自北美、非洲和欧洲11个种群的142块踝骨，由此可得知索伦蒂诺团队研究的内容。故选B。
（2）推理判断题。根据后句" people who live in big cities，who wear narrow or small foot wear and walk short distances on flat roads，have more inflexible ankles. （居住在大城市的人，穿着窄脚或小脚，在平坦的道路上短距离行走，脚踝更不灵活。）"与前句"Their ankles were relatively flexible（他们的脚踝相对灵活）"存在转折关系可知，此处应该用however。故选D。
（3）推理判断题。根据第三段内容" The hunter﹣gatherers' ankle bones were shorter than those people living in modern cities，and there were other differences in the shape. "They are mostly related to the behaviors of wearing and moving，" says Sorrentino. （狩猎采集者的踝骨比生活在现代城市中的人短，在形状上还有其他差异。索伦蒂诺说："它们主要与穿着和移动的行为有关。"）"可知，人类的行为通常会影响脚踝骨。故选A。
（4）主旨大意题。本文主要讲了习惯穿鞋人的脚踝和经常赤脚走路的不同，主要讲了脚与鞋的关系。故选C。
