          How young com辦zrs (美洲獅) leam to hunt is one of the things cougar researchers like Mark Elbroch are working hard to figure out. “We know nothing about their secret lives' Elbroch says. He and his team track cougars deep in the Wyoming wilderness.

          An adult called F51 was one of the cougars they kept (標(biāo)簽) on —they followed her using the satellite signal from her electronic collar. One fall when Elbroch discovered that F51 had given birth to four kittens — three females and a male —he put expandable tracking collars on them too,so he could follow them as they grew.

          About one week after they were bom,their eyes opened. Their fur was thick enough to blanket them from the oncoming cold winter. Their brown and black spots could mix with the forest,helping to keep them safe from (食肉動(dòng)物) .

          By the time they were five weeks old the four kittens were restless to leave their home. They'd  still be nursed for another month,but they were ready to go out of their hideaway with their mother. They began to learn their way around Mom's territory(領(lǐng)地). As they grew older and stronger,they learned how to search for food by following their mother,watching her select an animal to approach,and observing how she caught the animal.

          While they were only a few weeks old,Mom would tell her kittens to hide when she hunted. Sometimes she has to travel a couple of miles to find'meal. “The minute she makes the kill,she hides it and heads back for the kittens,and they follow her to the kill site,” Elbroch says.

          But the kittens learned that sometimes meal plans change quickly. In February and March,wolves chased F51 and her kittens away from six different kills. During the cold winter,one kitten disappeared” probably a victim of wolves,and another didnt survive the bitterly cold weather.

          Luckily F51 was able to provide plenty of food for her two remaining kittens. She shares her territory with another female,and they are friendly with each other. F5Ts kittens have learned that cooperation is a choice. “We have seen females get together and share food”’Elbroch says. “F51 spent three or four months sharing almost every kill with an unrelated female and her kittens."

A篇(自然)

本文是記敘文。文章講述了一只成年美洲獅與其幼崽的生存法則。

1. D. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由第一段中的How young cougars learn to hunt is one of the things cougar researchers …及第二段中的 he put expandable tracking collars on them too,so he could follow them as they grew可知,給美洲獅幼崽脖子上佩戴項(xiàng)圈是為了觀察它們?nèi)绾螌W(xué)習(xí)捕獵,也就是如何掌握生存技能的。

2. A. 推理判斷題。由第三段中的Their brown and black spots could mix with the forest,helping to keep them safe from predators可知,這些棕黑色的斑點(diǎn)與森林的顏色融合,可以保護(hù)美洲獅免受其他食肉動(dòng)物的襲擊。.

3. D. 詞義猜測(cè)題。由劃線詞下文中的 They'd still be nursed for another month,but they were ready to go out of their hideaway with their mother 可知,這些美洲獅幼崽應(yīng)該是“急切地”想出去捕獵。

4. B. 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。由倒數(shù)第三段中的 The minute she makes the kill,she hides it and heads back for the kittens,and they follow her to the kill site 可知,F(xiàn)51捕到獵物后,會(huì)叫來(lái)自己的孩子們一起分享食物。

5. C. 主旨大意題。本文主要講述了美洲獅在森林里與不同的對(duì)手抗衡捕獵的過(guò)程,由此可以推斷文章主要描述了它們的堅(jiān)毅。

第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)

根據(jù)短女內(nèi)容,從短文舍的亟項(xiàng)中選出能填 入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

         Everybody gets angry,but out-of-control anger isn,t good for you or those around you. So here are five simple strategies to help you learn how to manage your anger:

         • Relax. Breathe deeply,from your stomach. 36 Repeat it to yourself and visualize a relaxing time and experience.

         • Change the way you think. When youre angry,your thinking can get exaggerated(夸大的). 37 For instance, instead of telling yourself, “Oh,it's terrible! Everything's ruined,”tell yourself, “It's understandable that I'm upset about it,but it's not the end of the world."

         • 38 Statements like “This never works." or

“You’ re always forgetting things." will make you feel your anger is justified and there,s no way to solve the problem. They might upset people who might be willing to work with you on a solution.

         • Have a better communication. Angry people tend to jump to conclusions. If you are in a heated discussion,slow down. 39 And take your time before answering. Instead of saying the first thing that comes into your head,think carefully about what you want to say.

         • Use humor. Psychologists say that highly angry people tend to think ^things ought to go my way!” “Silly humor” can help you get a more balanced perspective. So,when you feel that anger coming the next time,picture yourself as a king or queen,walking around,admired by everybody,and getting your own way in every situation. The more detail you can get into your imaginary scenes,the more likely it is to put a smile on your face. 40

   A. Be carefUl with words like “never” or “always”.

   B. Listen carefully to what the other person is saying.

   C. Try replacing these thoughts with more reasonable ones.

   D. Avoid using these strategies when you’ re in a tense situation.

   E. Then slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as “take it easy”.

   F. Try changing the topics so your talks wont turn into arguments.

   G. That will help you realize that the things you,re angry about are really not very important.

                             D

             The idea of robot rulers,friends and lovers has been a topic of science fiction novels for years.

             But according to one mathematical model of how our brains create consciousness,emotional machines will never exist.

             This is because computers can,t handle any process that completely integrates infor? mation,so they cannot be conscious or feel,one expert says.

             A mathematical model for consciousness,developed by Giulio Tononi at the University of Wisconsin-Madison,says that the ability to integrate information is a key feature of con?sciousness.

             He believes that integrated information cant be broken down into smaller pieces in conscious minds,because the brain contextualizes (將…融入背景) information.

             For example,when we see a red circle our brains don't see the shape as a colouiiess circle plus a shapeless coloured area,New Scientist reported. Instead we see it as a whole — a red circle; we understand the “wider picture”.

             It's easy enough for machines to edit a collection of individual images (圖像) ,but memories are made up of a bank of intertwined(相互交織的) images and experiences and cannot be changed in the same way.

             Researchers have used mathematics to show that computers cannot handle the complex processes needed to fit pieces of information together perfectly.

             Therefore,if consciousness is based on the integration of lots of pieces of information,computers cant be conscious and can,t experience emotions like humans.

             Professor Phil Maguire of the National University of Ireland in Maynooth says that consciousness cannot be created in a physical machine in limited time using limited memory.

            “It doesn’t necessarily mean that there is some magic going on in the brain that involves some forces that cant be explained physically. It is just so complex that it's beyond our abilities to change it,” he said.

             His research may mean that lonely humans will not find love with a robot; they are unlikely to be made their slaves either.

32. Why do experts think emotional machines won’t exist?

   A. Machines can't solve problems.

   B. Machines can't handle information.

   C. Machines can't integrate information.

   D. Machines cant communicate with people.

33. The example mentioned in Paragraph 6 is used to show .

   A. machines cannot feel

   B. the brain has consciousness

   C. the brain can contextualize information

   D. machines can recognize shapes and colours

34. It can be learned from the text that .

   A. machines can edit intertwined images

   B. the idea of robot lovers won51 come true

   C. robots can fit pieces of information together perfectly

   D. computers can experience emotions like humans one day 

35. What would be the best title for the text?

   A. How robots work

   B. Robots will never have feelings

   C. Will robots become people,s friends?

   D. What will robots be like in the future?
