85、 try to rely on ourselves for everything答案与解析语篇解读作者的父亲总是引用歌词教育作者，凡事要靠自己的努力，作者就只凭借自己的努力满足了打动父母，如愿以偿的拿到了去看女朋友的票。63D推理判断题。由作者在第一段最后的“Ive always complained about the quote(引语)Although over time I have told myself to learn from it.”尽管作者总是抱怨，但自己也承认学从中学到了东西，这正是父母引用的目的所在。64A词义猜测。由下文的解释“because I havens been
86、 able to see her and she is having a rough time in school.”可以看出，女朋友离开去上大学了，自己感觉很孤独，再加上女友在学校“having a rough time”，由此可以看出，这正是上文所说的killer，一些使人烦恼的事情。65C推理判断题。当作者提出让父母出钱买票去看女友的时候，父亲的答复是：作者得出钱，即：“if I brought him some money he would help me pay for the ticket.”后来作者找了份工作(ended up getting the job)，并努力赚钱买票(w

89、pecies.The discovery was made by researchers at York and Harvard Universities when they were examining the genetic relationship between the ancient woolly mammoth and mastodon to modern elephantsthe Asian elephant, African forest elephant，and African savanna elephant.Once they obtained DNA sequences
90、 (序列) from two fossils (化石), mammoths and mastodons, the team compared them with DNA from modern elephants.They found to their amazement that modern forest and savanna elephants are as distinct from each other as Asian elephants and mammoths. The scientists used detailed genetic analysis to prove th
91、at the African savanna elephant and the African forest elephant have been distinct species for several million years.The divergence of the two species took place around the time of the divergence of Asian elephants and woolly mammoths.This result amazed all the scientists. There has long been debate
92、 in the scientific community that the two might be separate species, but this is the most convincing scientific evidence so far that they are indeed different species. Previously, many naturalists believed that African savanna elephants and African forest elephants were two populations of the same s
93、pecies, despite the elephants significant size differences.The savanna elephant has an average shoulder height of 3.5 metres while the forest elephant has an average shoulder height of 2.5 metres.The savanna elephant weighs between six and seven tons, roughly double the weight of the forest elephant
94、.But the fact that they look so different does not necessarily mean they are different species.However the proof lay in the analysis of the DNA. Alfred Roca, assistant professor in the Department of Animal Sciences at the University of Illinois, said, “We now have to treat the forest and savanna ele
95、phants as two different units for conservation purposes.Since 1950, all African elephants have been conserved as one species.Now that we know the forest and savanna elephants are two very distinctive animals, the forest elephant should become a bigger priority(优先) for conservation purposes.”67One of
