23、tight spaces. What about the freeloaders? They just sit around while their hard-working colleagues get things done. But might freeloaders actually be necessary for society to function efficiently? The answer could be yesat least when it comes to fire ants and their efforts to dig nests underground.F
24、ire ants are highly social creatures. So, Goldman, a physicist at Georgia Tech, and his colleagues wanted to know how individual ants knew what to do without a central leader issuing orders. To find out, Goldmans team labeled individual fire ants with paint and then watched them dig their narrow tun
25、nelsbarely wide enough for two workers. It turned out that just 30 percent of the ants did 70 percent of the labor. “I was surprised that we ended up with so few workers actually doing the work at any one time.” A quarter of the ants never even entered the tunnels. Others moved inside, but left with
26、out digging a single grain of dirt. These behaviors ensured the crowded tunnels did not get blocked with insect traffic, which would put the construction process to a stop.And when the scientists removed the five hardest-working ants from the site, others immediately jumped in to take up their posit
27、ionswith no reduction in the groups productivity. It seems that it doesnt matter which ants are working or freeloading at a given time, as long as there is some division of labor to keep the tunnels flowing smoothly. The findings appeared in the journal Science.The study could have implications for
28、robotics. Imagine groups of robots sent to search the ruins for disaster survivors or nanobots coursing through our bodies to detect illness and deliver targeted medical treatment. Such robot groups will need to avoid getting jammed up in tight spaces.12. Why are only a few ants needed to do the dig
29、ging work?A. To give full play to the able.B. To take care of the old ones.C. To improve their work efficiency.D. To free some ants to do other work.13. How did Goldman carry out the research?A. By direct observation.B. By classification.C. By citing previous data.D. By handing out questionnaires.14
30、. What does Goldmans research indicate?A. Individuals matter in work.B. Many hands make light work.C. Good leadership guarantees productivity.D. Specific division of labor boosts efficiency.15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Robots are not suitable for team work.B. Smaller robots sh
31、ould be used to treat patients.C. More robots have to be sent to do rescue work.D. Some robots should be programmed to freeload.EThe latest thing in architecture is green buildingscovering walls and roofs with a carpet of plants to prevent heat, absorb rain and provide a home for wildlife. Many such
32、 buildings need complex systems for holding and irrigating the soil. 16Ivy is a group of evergreen climbing plants, whose power to live is hard to beat. Firstly, it can live in almost any surroundings, whether in shade or full sun. 17 It grows well in both dry and damp soil. Moreover, it doesnt need
33、 supports as it grows aerial roots that can be attached to most things. For these reasons, ivy can be widely grown to beautify an ugly wall or a fence. 18 It is a heaven for bees and butterflies in summer and its berries are a valuable food source for birds in winter.However, there are some concerns
34、 about growing ivy. Ivy has a reputation for damaging buildings, but according to the UKs Royal Horticultural Society, this doesnt usually happen unless the walls already have cracks. 19 But Blanusa at the University of Reading, UK, who has examined the effects of plant climbers, finds that ivy rais
35、es humidity next to the wall by only a small amount. 20 Once ivy has been in the ground for a few years, it can grow out of control. Just dont let it get the better of you.A. Growing ivy can bring added benefits.B. Therefore, I strongly oppose growing ivy.C. The other fear is that it can make walls
36、damp.D. Besides, it can be tolerant of various kinds of soil.E. Anyway, you do need to be careful in growing ivy.F. An ivy-covered wall will slightly warm a room in winter.G. However, there is a much easier approach: growing some ivy.第二部分 完形填空(共 15 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 15 分)In high school, Dad got me to pl

49、 flowers were blooming, the sun was shining, and the birds were singing their beautiful song. In a nearby basketball stadium, there was a basketball championship going on. Jesse like his elder brother Timmy was one of the best in the competition; he scored most of his teams points, but his team did
50、not like that. Jesse never passed the ball. His coach always told him that it was a team game and not a one-man show.“Jesse, pass the ball more,” insisted Coach Tyler.“Coach, I am good; I can win this whole tournament by myself if I want to,” responded Jesse. “Jesse, you need to learn to respect the
51、 game!” said Coach Tyler.“I dont need to respect anything,” said Jesse.“Okay then, and I dont need you in my team, Jesse.

58、了 Jesse 很擅长篮球,但在比赛中他拒绝传球给队员,认为仅凭自己就能获胜, 并且与教练发生冲突,因此被赶出球队。在第二支球队,Jesse 虽然愿意传球给别人,但不甘心自己当替补, 于是找教练理论,觉得自己非常优秀,且不尊重教练。结果再次被赶出球队。由续写第一段首句内容“Jesse 离开了。回到家时他非常生气。”可知,第一段可以描写 Jesse 回家时家人的开导,让他明白了篮球是一个团队运动,而非个人展示,并且还要尊重教练和队员。由续写第二段首句内容“Jesse 回到了体育场。”可知,第二段可描写 Jesse 回到体育场后向教练道歉,被教练重新接纳,并且学会了在比赛时注重团队合作,并且在比赛
59、中夺冠。续写线索:生气地回家家人了解情况开导他回到球场向教练道歉被重新接纳 注重团队合作赢得冠军。Paragraph 1:Jesse left. He became quite mad while going home.
