It’s easy nt t think much abut the intelligence f insects. Small creatures with even smaller brains—hw smart can they be? But as researchers begin t rethink hw animals think, even insects are being seen in a new light. Nw a new study frm the University r Bristl finds that Helicnius butterflies (蝴蝶) have the ability t learn abut space.
T test the butterflies’ spatial learning abilities, the researchers set up experiments acrss three different spatial levels, each reflecting behavirs significant t their natural envirnment. First, they checked if the butterflies culd find fd amng16 flwers in a small area. Next, they enlarged the space, seeing if the butterflies culd chse the crrect side f a larger maze (迷宫) fr fd. Finally, they used a big utdr cage t see if the butterflies culd find their way thrugh a wide T-maze fr fd. The butterflies succeeded in all tests.
The study’s senir authr, Dr. Stephen Mntgmery, ntes that these findings shw the difficult behavirs that even familiar animals like butterflies exhibit as part f their natural ec lgy (生态). These species are prcessing diverse infrmatin frm their envirnment and utilizing it t perfrm difficult tasks—all with brains just a few millimeters wide.
The researchers plan t further investigate Helicnius butterflies’ spatial learning abilities by cmparing them t clsely related species that d nt feed n pllen (花粉). This will help shw hw an animal's envirnment can affect the develpment f its thinking skills.
C-lead authr Dr. Priscila Mura stresses the significance f these findings, saying that they prvide actual evidence f the butterflies’ fascinating spatial learning abilities, a subject that has been discussed fr nearly a century. With the new understanding, the researchers can cntinue t explre insect intelligence and behavir.
7. What did the University f Bristl’s study find abut Hehicmius butterflies?
A. They are capable f spatial learning.
B. They require assistance in finding fd.
C. They can fly lng distances withut rest.
D. They have a scial circle like ther insects.

10. What is Dr. Priscila Mura’s attitude tward the findings?
A. Dubtful.B. Puzzled.C. Supprtive.D. Unclear.
【答案】7. A 8. B 9. D 10. C
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了一项关于蝴蝶空间学习能力的研究。
【7题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“Nw a new study frm the University r Bristl finds that Helicnius butterflies (蝴蝶) have the ability t learn abut space.(现在，布里斯托尔大学的一项新研究发现，Helicnius蝴蝶具有学习空间的能力。)”可知，研究发现蝴蝶具有空间学习能力。故选A项。
【8题详解】主旨大意题。由文章第二段中“First, they checked if the butterflies culd find fd amng16 flwers in a small area. Next, they enlarged the space, seeing if the butterflies culd chse the crrect side f a larger maze (迷宫) fr fd. Finally, they used a big utdr cage t see if the butterflies culd find their way thrugh a wide T-maze fr fd. The butterflies succeeded in all tests.(首先，他们检查蝴蝶是否能在小区域内的16朵花中找到食物。接下来，他们扩大了空间，看看蝴蝶是否能在更大的迷宫中选择正确的一侧作为食物。最后，他们用一个大的户外笼子，看看蝴蝶是否能穿过一个宽阔的T形迷宫寻找食物。蝴蝶在所有测试中都成功了。)”以及本段上文可知，文章第二段主要介绍了研究人员如何设置实验来测试蝴蝶的空间学习能力，故本段主要聚焦研究过程。故选B项。
【9题详解】词句猜测题。根据文章第三段中“These species are prcessing diverse infrmatin frm their envirnment and utilizing it t perfrm difficult tasks—all with brains just a few millimeters wide.(这些物种正在处理来自环境的各种信息，并 这些信息执行艰巨的任务——所有这些任务只用只有几毫米宽大脑完成。)”可知，这些物种处理来自环境的多样化信息，接下来应该是“利用”多样化信息来执行困难的任务。所以猜测utilizing表“利用”的意思。故选D项。
【10题详解】推理判断题。由文章最后一段“C-lead authr Dr. Priscila Mura stresses the significance f these findings, saying that they prvide actual evidence f the butterflies’ fascinating spatial learning abilities, a subject that has been discussed fr nearly a century. With the new understanding, the researchers can cntinue t explre insect intelligence and behavir.(共同主要作者Priscila Mura博士强调了这些发现的重要性，称它们为蝴蝶迷人的空间学习能力提供了实际证据，这一主题已经讨论了近一个世纪。有了新的认识，研究人员可以继续探索昆虫的智力和行为。)”可知，Dr.PriscilaMura强调了这些发现的重要性，这表明Dr.PriscilaMura对这些发现持支持态度。故选C项。

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了中国扇子的历史发展，从最初的马车上用于遮阳避雨的扇子，到长柄扇和折扇的演变，以及扇子在不同社会阶层中的流行情况。
【31题详解】考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意：中国扇子的历史可以追溯到3000多年前的商朝左右。dates back t(追溯到；始于)是谓语动词，与主语The histry之间是主动关系，描述客观事实用一般现在时态，主语是不可数名词，谓语动词要用单数形式。故填dates。
【32题详解】考查形容词最高级。句意：被称为扇汗，是中国最早为人所知的“扇子”之一，它并不像我们今天仍然看到的手持扇子。“ne f+the+形容词最高级+名词复数”是固定短语，意为“最……之一”，用形容词最高级the earliest作定语。故填earliest。
【33题详解】考查名词复数。句意：它们被绑在马车上，用来阻挡太阳的热量，并为乘客遮雨(很像今天的雨伞)。可数名词passenger作宾语，前面没有冠词修饰，结合句意，乘客不止一位，用复数形式。故填passengers。
【34题详解】考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意：长柄扇被称为张山。call(给……命名；称呼)是谓语动词，与主语The lng-handled fan之间是被动关系，描述过去的事情用一般过去时态，又因主语是单数名词，谓语动词要用单数形式。故填was called。
【35题详解】考查副词。句意：这种扇子主要由皇帝的仪仗队用作装饰。修饰谓语动词was used，应用副词mainly作状语，意为“主要地”。故填mainly。
【36题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：直到2000多年前的周朝，人们才开始使用折叠扇来降温。use sth t d sth是固定搭配，意为“用某物做某事”，用不定式作目的状语。故填t cl。
