三、阅读考试预测
Paragraph 1
Social insects represent the high point of invertebrate evolution. Some specieslive in communities of millions, coordinating their building and foraging, their reproduction, and their offspring care. Yet sociality is found in only a few species of insects, and is rare among vertebrates as well: wildebeest (large antelope)and lions are the exception rather than the rule. Nearly all fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals are solitary, except when courting and mating. Birds and mammals usually rear their young, but year-round family groups are almost unknown, though they are intensely studied where they do exist. The same is true for insects.
1. According to paragraph 1, which of the following is true of sociality among animal species?
Sociality is much more common among invertebrates than among vertebrates.
Very few animals are considered social because most spend the majority of their lives alone.
An animal group must contain more than one family unit for the species tobe considered social.
All animals that rear their young are considered to be social.
Paragraph 2
We know, or think we know, that social groups are good. Wolves are better predators when they hunt in packs, and pigeons escape from falcons far more often when feeding in flocks. Group building projects—the dams beavers build to block a body of water that provides them with relative safety from predators and the lodges they build for shelter, for instance—can provide a high level of protection and comfort. Why, then, are social species so very rare? In fact, living socially presents inevitable problems that transcend habitat needs so that only when these costs are offset by corresponding benefits is group living a plus.
2. Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage? Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.
Group living allows some animals to transcend problems of habitat.
Group living is only advantageous when benefits outweigh inevitable problems.
Problems resulting from living socially extend beyond the habitat.
It is difficult to determine whether the benefits of social living offset its costs
Paragraph 3
The most obvious cost is competition. All the members of a species share the same habitat; when they live together, they are trying to eat the same food and occupy the same nesting sites. In general, there is far less competition away from a group, and selection should favor any individual who (all things being equal) sets off on its own, leaving the members of its group behind to compete among themselves for limited resources. Another difficulty is that concentrations of individuals facilitate disease and parasite transmission. On the whole, social animals carry more parasites and speciesspecific diseases than do solitary animals. Parasites and diseases diminish the strength and limit the growth of animals, and among highly social creatures, epidemics can devastate whole populations. Distemper (a viral disease) has been known to wipe out entire colonies of seals, for instance. So the penalty of social life is potentiallyhuge.
3. What does paragraph 3 say about the relationship between natural selection and animals that live apart from other members of their species?
Natural selection does not favor living apart because individuals are unable to obtain resources equal to those of group members.
Natural selection does not favor living apart because of the intense competition for resources among individuals apart from a group.
Natural selection favors living apart because individuals are unlikely to attract the attention of predators.
Natural selection favors living apart because group living increases competition for limited resources of food and nesting sites.
4. The word "devastate " in the passage is closest in meaning to
alter
spread to
destroy
involve
5. In paragraph 3, why does the author mention distemper and its effect on seals?
To explain why sociality is now relatively rare in seals
To prove that parasites prevent animals from growing healthy and strong
To show how easily social animals transmit potentially deadly diseases
To provide an example of a species-specific disease that affects solitary animals
四、写作考试预测
Sometimes we are assigned to work in a group on a project. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The group will be helped more by person who will be willing to do what other group members want than by person who often strongly insists that things should be done in a way that is different from what the group wants to do.
Nowadays, many movies or films are based on books. Some people prefer to read the original book before they watch the movie, other prefer to watch the movie before reading the book. Which one do you prefer?
Some young people are free in the evenings or have days off at school, which way can bring them the most benefit? 1、to accumulate work experience by a part-time job or volunteering in a community 2、learning to play a sport 3、learning to play a musical instrument
At some universities, students take part in making decisions about the issues that affect daily life of everyone on campus, such as how many hours that the libraries should be open each day or what kinds of food should be served in the cafeteria. But at some universities, experts are hired to make this decisions, students almost never involved. Which approach do you prefer and why.
Students aged 13-18 are taught different subjects by different teachers while younger students are taught by only one teacher all day long. Some people suggest it would benefit young students to be taught by different teachers. Do you agree with this view? Why or why not?
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement : Sometimes people think nowadays the media (TV, newspaper, Internet) are less concerned about the accuracy of news than in the past, and the incorrect information may cause more problem to the public.
Your friends have the opportunity to choose either one of two types of majors (fields of study), which one of the following two majors do you think is a better choice, and why?
