While critics say caregivers should not rely too much on their smartphone, others say its a helpful tool for new or tired parents.Ariana Anderson, a mother of four, developed the app. She originally designed the technology to help deaf parents better understand why their baby was upset

26、 Pacific Ocean are gradually relocating to land to escape their predators (捕食者), in an example of evolution in action.Fish first began crawling onto dry land about 400 million years ago, kicking off an evolutionary chain of events that led to humans. But their reasons for exiting the sea have been u

27、ncertain.To look for clues, Terry Ord at the University of New South Wales in Australia has been studying several species of blennies at Rarotonga, the largest of the Cook Islands.At low tide, blennies are commonly found swimming in rock pools around the edges of the island. But when high tide moves

28、 in, they climb up to dry land and move around the rocks until the tide retreats.The researchers found that this is most likely to avoid predators that swim in with the rising tide mainly bigger fish like lionfish.To test what would happen if blennies did not have an escape plan, they made blenny mo

29、dels and sank them in the sea. The mimics ended up with wounds, bite marks and chunks-missing.Of course, there are still dangers for blennies on land, like the occasional bird attack, but the predation risk on land is a third that of underwater.Whats more, moving onto land has additional benefits fo

30、r blennies. Holes in the rocks provide sheltered nests for laying eggs, and they can maintain their diet of bacteria.In fact, several species of blenny fish at Rarotonga have already made the full transition to land-dwelling (陆生的) species. They continue to breathe with their gills, but have develope

31、d stronger tail fins and jump from rock to rock.Ord believes that many evolutionary processes have been driven by the need to escape predators. “It is often assumed that animals move homes to find new sources of food, but in many cases, escaping predators is a stronger motivation.” he says.28. Why d

32、o blennies climb to dry land when high tide comes?A. To acquire better health.B. To search for more food.C. To seek safer living conditions.D. To adapt to a new environment.29. What does the underlined part “The mimics” in Paragraph 6 refer to?A. The rocks in the water.B. The predators of blennies.C

33、. The researchers of blennies.D. The models of blennies.30. What can be concluded from the last paragraph?A. Ords research opens a new view.B. Ord wonders why animals move homes.C.

34、he following could be the best title for the text?A. Blennies Living HabitsB. Why Blennies Choose to Live on LandC. Blennies Evolutionary ProcessD. How Blennies Escape from their PredatorsDDaniel Anderson, a famous psychologist, believes its important to distinguish televisions influences on childre

35、n from those of the family. We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesnt really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping childrens minds.One traditional belief about television is that it reduces a childs ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV, children do not mer

36、ely absorb words and images (影像). Instead, they learn both explicit and hidden meanings from what they see. Actually, children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows. Furthermore, as many teachers agree, children understand far more when parents watch TV with them, explaining new words

37、 and ideas. Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and do something in another room.Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment. But according to Anderson, the amount of time spent watching televi

38、sion is not related to reading ability. TV doesnt take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation, such as listening to the radio and playing sports. Things like parents educational background have a stronger influence on a childs reading. “A childs rea

39、ding ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads.” Anderson says.Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ (智商) scores and affects school performance. But here, too, Anderson notes that no studies have proved it. In fact, research suggests that its the other wa

40、y around. “If youre smart young, youll watch less TV when youre older,” Anderson says. Yet, people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.For years researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children. However, by showing that television promotes none of the danger

41、ous effects as conventionally believed, Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned without considering other influences.32. By watching TV children learn _.A. images through wordsB. more than explicit meaningsC. more about images than wordsD. little about peoples psychology33. Which of th

42、e following is most related to childrens reading ability?A. Radio-listeningB. Television-watchingC. Parents reading listD. Parents educational background34. Anderson believed that _.A. the more a child watches TV, the smarter he isB. the younger a child is, the more he watches TVC. the smarter a chi
