30、a Nursing HomeC.Memories of Old DaysD.A Big Surprise for MelindaDIt is a question that has long puzzled scientistsexactly why are tigers orange? One might think it makes them more obvious, particularly against a leafy green forest background. William Blake summed it up in his famous poem known by ge
31、nerations of schoolchildren: “Tiger, tiger, burning bright/In the forest of the night.” But now the answer is at hand.While obvious to us, computer simulations(模拟) of what the big cats look to the main animals they hunt for, deer, show a different picture. Humans with normal colour vision, can see r
32、ed, blue and green colours. But deer can only pick up blue and green light, they are effectively colourblind to the colour red, like some humans. It means the tigers orange colouration looks green to them, allowing them to mix perfectly into the background, new research claims.Dr. John Fennell at th
33、e University of Bristol and colleagues said that they used computers to estimate how noticeable a given animal was. They did this by using images of the environment in which the animal lives, and then creating images to see whether the camouflage helps the animal to mix in.Dr. Fennell writes that by
34、 simulating what the world looks like to animals who are “two-colour vision”someone who cannot discover the difference between red and green“we also identify the most suitable colours for hiding and visibility”.Dr. Fennell writes in the Royal Society Journal Inter face: “Considering the coat of a ti
35、ger, it has fur that appears orange to a three-colour vision observer rather than some shade of green, though the latter should be more appropriate color for an attack hunter in forests. However, when viewed as a two-colour vision observer, the tigers colour is very effective.”The question then aris
36、es as to why tigers dont grow green coats. Dr. Fennell and colleagues write that mammals(哺乳动物) are not able to produce green fur. To do so would “require a significant change to mammalian biochemistry”. There is only one mammal known to have green fur but this is achieved through what might be consi
37、dered as, well, cheating, not exactly real.32. Why does the author mention the poem in paragraph 1?A. To arouse readers interest in poems.B. To show the authors respect to the poet.C.

The way of hiding something.D. The way of hunting for something.35. What can be inferred from the last paragr
39、aph?A. The colour of tigers sometimes cheats people.B. Getting green may prevent tigers from being extinct.C. There are no mammals with real green fur in the world.D. The tigers fur will probably evolve into green in the future.第二节：阅读七选五（满分10分）Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?We all grew up hearing

61、s been regarded as a good habit since ancient times. Many years ago, people thought that if we went to bed early and get up early, we would be energetic the whole day. Therefore, getting up early is of great importance to us all. In fact, morning is the best time of a day. In the morning, the air is
62、 the freshest and people are usually in the best conditions. Many of us may have the experiences that we memorize some things more quickly and accurately in the morning than any other time of the day. If we do some morning exercise or only take a short walk in the morning, we can build our bodies an
63、d become much healthier. Also we will have enough time to make a plan and get ready for our work or study of the day if we get up early. However, if we get up late, we will probably have to do everything in a great hurry. Let us remember getting up early is a good habit and try our best to keep it. If we stick to getting up early every day, we will certainly benefit a lot from it. 高考资源网版权所有，侵权必究！
