(A)
A huge shire horse ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )(夏尔马) in Australia has been declared the biggest horse in the world by its owner, beating the current Guinness World Record by several inches. www-2-1-cnjy-com
The giant five-year-old, from Pakenham, S. E Australia, measures an amazing 20. 1 hands, or 2. 057m tall. He weighs over 1. 3 tons (1, 300kg) — about the same as a small car — and is still growing. 21*cnjy*com
His owner, horse ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )trainer Jane Greenman, 47, says the only time the horse runs is when there is food on offer. “He eats an incredible amount. I would hate to run a team of eight horses his size—it would send you broke (破产的), ” she says.
The massive horse, w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hose name is Noddy, was born in Australia with parents imported from England. Noddy’s grandfather, Ladbrooke Edward (UK) was the world’s tallest horse during the 1980’s. But Jane had no idea that the horse she raised from the age of six months would grow this big. Noddy immediately began to rocket and soon overtook (超过) both his parents in size.
Although she says ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )that she is not interested in the Guinness Book of Records, Jane has carried out her own research and is sure that Noddy comes top. “The nearest is a horse in Texas, at 20 hands, ” says Jane. “Noddy is already an inch taller than that. The scary thing is he still hasn’t finished—shire horses aren’t fully grown until they’re about six or seven”.
Jane has said that ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Noddy could be sold overseas, possibly even fetching a record price to match his height. She is unwilling to sell, but to cover the high cost of keeping him, she needs to put him to work. “He needs a job. It’s very hard to find jobs for such a big horse in Australia. I wish he could stay here but I’ve tried everywhere, ” she says regretfully. “I just want people to enjoy this beautiful animal as much as I do. ”21世纪教育网版权所有
21. The underlined “rocket” in Paragraph 4 probably means _______.
A. walk around B. eat a lot
C. grow fast D. look strong
22. Which of the following is a big problem for the horse’s owner
A. She doesn’t know how to apply for the Guinness World Record.
B. She has to support eight big horses at the same time.
C. Another horse in Texas is growing even faster than hers.
D. There is not enough money to cover the cost of raising her horse.
23. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
A. Noddy must be as powerful as a small car
B. Noddy’s growth can be genetically explained
C. many people are willing to buy Noddy
D. no job will be available for Noddy at all
24. What would be the best title for this passage
A. New world record for the biggest horse
B. Jane Greenman becomes famous for her horse
C. Large size means no job for a big horse
D. Shire horses tend to grow bigger than others
(B)
Which animal has the fastest snapping jaw (突然合住的颚) If you’re guessing a shark or perhaps a larger animal, you’ll have to think smaller. The trap-jaw ant, which lives in Central and South America, moves its mouth parts at 35 to 63 meters per second. Another way to think about this is that the ant’s jaws close at 125 to 233 kilometers per hour. That’s 2, 300 times faster than the blink of an eye. 【来源:21cnj*y.co*m】
Scientists were ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) able to measure the amazing jaw speed using high-speed video techniques. Sheila Patek, a biologist, says the key is that the jaws have a springy (有弹性的) system, which is critical in getting explosive (爆发性的) speeds.
Consider a bow and arrow. If you try to throw an arrow with your arm, it won’t go very far. If you use a bow, elastic (弹性的) energy stored in the bow is freed almost immediately when you let go of the arrow with your finger. That’s exactly what really fast organisms are doing.
Maybe even more amazing than how fast these ants grab food or even enemies is how they use this same energy to move. As the ant closes its jaws, it uses them to push off the ground — all faster than the eye can see without slow motion video. A snap of the jaw can send an ant up to 8. 3 centimeters into the air. That’s like someone who is 1. 7 meters jumping 13 meters high! Not only can they quickly escape from enemies, but often a group of ants will start jumping all at once. It would be hard for their enemies to grab just one.
25. The fast speed of the trap-jaw ants’ jaws lies in _______.
A. their light bodies
B. their springy system
C. their living environment
D. the length of their jaws
26. What does the p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )assage use“a bow and arrow” as an example to show
A. How an arrow gets so much energy to fly.
B. Why the trap-jaw ants have a springy system.
C. Why the trap-jaw ants’ jaws move so fast.
D. How a bow and arrow works.
27. Which of the following things may amaze the scientists most 21·cn·jy·com
A. How high the ants can leap by using their jaws.
B. How quickly the trap-jaw ants can move on the ground.
C. How wonderfully th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e springy system in the trap-jaw ants’ jaws works.
D. How quickly the trap-jaw ants can grab food or enemies.
28. According ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )to the passage, the trap-jaw ants’ jaws keep them safe because _______.
A. they can catch their enemies easily with their jaws
B. their jaws make them difficult to recognize
C. their jaws help them to find food easily
D. their jaws help them to escape from their enemies
