The zebra is a kind of animal that comes from Africa. They can be seen in almost all the zoos around the world. Many people like them because of their black and white stripes(条纹).
For a long time, scientists have been trying to find out why zebras have stripes and the use of these black and white stripes. But no one can give an exact answer.
The early scientists thought these black and white stripes could help them avoid being caught and eaten by tigers, lions and other animals. Because as they run, it’s difficult for other animals to estimate(估计) their speed and direction.
But is it true Scientists from England have been taking a much closer look. They have been testing the idea using a game called Dazzle Bug. That’s where you have to catch a bug, but it keeps changing its pattern(图案) in an effort to stop you doing so. What the scientists have found is that even when they are moving, the bugs still lose their clear patterns.
So scientists believe that how zebras protect themselves while moving may depend on a completely different mechanism(机制). No one knows how to explain the stripes on a zebra. But while the results may raise more questions than they answer, it does tell the idea that even for scientists, nature is a moving goal.
1.What do scientists want to know
A. Zebras’ living conditions. B. The mystery behind zebras’ stripes.
C. The best ways to protect zebras. D. Zebras’ living habits.

A. Stripes can protect zebras.
B. Stripes can help zebras run faster.
C. Stripes can help zebras estimate directions.
D. It’s difficult for zebras to lose stripes.
3.What’s the result of the test that scientists in England have taken
A. The bugs can lose their patterns but zebras can’t.
B. The bugs can avoid being caught while moving.
C. The early scientists’ idea may be wrong.
D. The stripes can help zebras run away easily.
4.What can we know from the passage
A. Scientists have known how zebras protect themselves.
B. No one can tell the mystery of zebras’ stripes exactly.
C.A completely different mechanism can be used to study zebras.
D. The early scientists knew more about zebras.
5.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean
A. Scientists can know more about nature as it is changing.
B. Scientists are good at studying moving things in nature.
C. It’s easier for scientists to know about nature.
D. Even for scientists, nature is always full of mysteries.

九、阅读理解
A
The zebra is a kind of animal that comes from Africa. They can be seen in almost all the zoos around the world. Many people like them because of their black and white stripes(条纹).
For a long time, scientists have been trying to find out why zebras have stripes and the use of these black and white stripes. But no one can give an exact answer.
The early scientists thought these black and white stripes could help them avoid being caught and eaten by tigers, lions and other animals. Because as they run, it’s difficult for other animals to estimate(估计) their speed and direction.
But is it true Scientists from England have been taking a much closer look. They have been testing the idea using a game called Dazzle Bug. That’s where you have to catch a bug, but it keeps changing its pattern(图案) in an effort to stop you doing so. What the scientists have found is that even when they are moving, the bugs still lose their clear patterns.
So scientists believe that how zebras protect themselves while moving may depend on a completely different mechanism(机制). No one knows how to explain the stripes on a zebra. But while the results may raise more questions than they answer, it does tell the idea that even for scientists, nature is a moving goal.
1.What do scientists want to know
A. Zebras’ living conditions. B. The mystery behind zebras’ stripes.
C. The best ways to protect zebras. D. Zebras’ living habits.
2.Which of the following is the early scientists‘ idea
A. Stripes can protect zebras.
B. Stripes can help zebras run faster.
C. Stripes can help zebras estimate directions.
D. It’s difficult for zebras to lose stripes.
3.What’s the result of the test that scientists in England have taken
A. The bugs can lose their patterns but zebras can’t.
B. The bugs can avoid being caught while moving.
C. The early scientists’ idea may be wrong.
D. The stripes can help zebras run away easily.
4.What can we know from the passage
A. Scientists have known how zebras protect themselves.
B. No one can tell the mystery of zebras’ stripes exactly.
C.A completely different mechanism can be used to study zebras.
D. The early scientists knew more about zebras.
5.What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean
A. Scientists can know more about nature as it is changing.
B. Scientists are good at studying moving things in nature.
C. It’s easier for scientists to know about nature.
D. Even for scientists, nature is always full of mysteries.

【解析】 很长一段时间以来,科学家们一直试图弄明白斑马的身上为什么有黑白条纹,以及这种条纹是如何帮助它们抵御掠食者的袭击的。早期的科学家给出了答案,但现在科学家们发现,斑马可能依赖一种完全不同的机制保护自己。
1.B 细节理解题。由文章第二段中的“For a long time, scientists have been trying to find out why zebras have stripes and the use of these black and white stripes.”可知,科学家们一直想弄明白斑马为什么有条纹以及这些黑白条纹的作用,即科学家们想弄明白斑马条纹的奥秘。
2.A 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The early scientists thought these black and white stripes could help them avoid being caught and eaten by tigers, lions and other animals.”可知,早期科学家认为条纹能保护斑马。
3.C 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“What the scientists have found is that even when they are moving, the bugs still lose their clear patterns.”可推断出,条纹并不保护斑马,所以早期科学家的结论可能是错误的。
4.B 细节理解题。由最后一段中的“No one knows how to explain the stripes on a zebra.”可知,没有人确切知道斑马条纹的奥秘。
5.D 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段可知,科学家们虽然发现早期科学家们的理论不一定正确,但他们并不能确切解释斑马条纹的奥秘,所以,对科学家们来说,大自然总是充满了奥秘。
