A Journey of Discovery
探索之旅
The captain of the ship, the Beagle, wanted someone who would “profit by the opportunity of visiting distant countries yet little known”.
“贝格尔号”的船长想要找一个人,这个人将“受益于探访遥远而未知的国家的机会”。
The person who answered the call was not the captain's first choice.
响应号召的人不是船长的首选。
It was a young man who had left medical school without completing his degree.
这是一个没有完成他的学位就离开了医学院的年轻人。
What's more, he had recently received a letter from his father predicting that he would be “a disgrace to yourself and all your family”.
更重要的是,他最近收到了一封来自他父亲的信,预言他将是“自己和全家的耻辱”。
Despite all this, his adventures on this ship would lead to one of the most important scientific discoveries of all time.
尽管如此,他在这艘船上的冒险之旅将促使有史以来最重要的科学发现之一。
词句自测 ①distant adj. 遥远的 ②answer__the__call 响应号召 ③disgrace n. 丢脸,耻辱 ④be__a__disgrace 是耻辱,是丢脸的事 ⑤本句中的It指代上文中的The__person;who引导定语从句,在从句中作主语。
The young man in question, Charles Darwin, was a geologist and naturalist, fascinated by rocks, plants and animals.
我们提到的这个年轻人就是地质学家和博物学家查尔斯·达尔文,他对岩石和动植物有着浓厚的兴趣。
He left England on the ship, the Beagle, in 1831.
1831年,他乘坐“贝格尔号”离开英格兰。
The journey gave him the chance to study various living things in their natural environments.
这次旅行使他有机会研究自然环境中的各种生物。
After Darwin had spent some time in South America, his room on the ship was crowded with samples of the plants and animals he had collected.
达尔文在南美洲待了一段时间后,他在船上的房间里堆满了他收集的动植物标本。
As he studied these, he asked himself the question: how did different species come to exist
当他研究这些标本时,他问了自己一个问题:不同的物种是如何形成的?
词句自测 ⑥geologist n. 地质学家 ⑦sample n. 样本 ⑧“时间状语从句(After Darwin ... America)+主句(his room ... collected)”。从句结构是“主(Darwin)谓(had spent)宾(some time)”;主句结构是“主(his room)系(was)表(crowded)”,on the ship是后置定语修饰his room,he had collected是定语从句修饰samples。
At that time, people believed that all species had appeared on Earth at the same time, and had not changed since.
那时,人们相信所有的物种都是在同一时间出现在地球上的,并且从那以后就没有改变过。
But Darwin began to think differently.
但是达尔文开始有了不同的想法。
He noticed that some species of animals were very similar to each other.
他注意到有些动物的种类彼此非常相似。
Maybe animals evolved as they adapted to their changing environments
也许动物在适应不断变化的环境时进化了?
It was just an idea, but enough to inspire Darwin to look for more evidence.
这只是一个想法,但足以激励达尔文去寻找更多的证据。
词句自测 ⑨evolve v. 进化
When the Beagle reached the Galápagos Islands in 1835, Darwin saw a variety of new species, but it was the birds that interested him the most.
1835年,当“贝格尔号”抵达加拉帕戈斯群岛(厄瓜多尔)时,达尔文看到了各种各样的新物种,但他最感兴趣的是鸟类。
Darwin noticed that there was a difference between the finches on each of the islands.
达尔文注意到每个岛屿上的雀科鸣禽类都有所不同。
It seemed their beaks had evolved according to what food was available on that particular island.
它们的喙似乎是根据所在岛屿上可觅得的食物进化而来的。
Darwin suspected that the finches had evolved from a common ancestor, which had arrived on the islands a long time before.
达尔文怀疑这些雀科鸣禽类是由一个共同的祖先进化而来,它们的祖先很久之前就来到了这个岛上。
Over time, it had slowly evolved into many new species.
随着时间的推移,它们慢慢进化成许多新物种。
And that was the answer to how new species of plants and animals came to exist: they evolved from earlier ancestors.
而这就是动植物等新物种是怎样形成的答案:它们是由早期祖先进化而来的。
词句自测 ⑩finch n. 雀科鸣禽 beak n. 鸟嘴,喙 suspect v. 猜想,怀疑,觉得 ancestor n. (动物的)原种,祖先 “主(It)系(seemed)表(their beaks ... island)”。从句结构是“主(their beaks)谓(had evolved)+方式状语(according ... island)”;according to意为“按照”,介词to后跟宾语从句what food was available; on that particular island是地点状语。
It was a completely new idea—a theory of evolution.
这是一个全新的概念——进化论。
Darwin explained this theory in his book, On the Origin of Species.
达尔文在他的《物种起源》一书中解释了这一理论。
It was not published until 1859 and immediately caused a storm.
这本书直到1859年才出版,出版后立即引起轰动。
Many people refused to believe that living things, including humans, had evolved from lower forms of life. They were shocked.
许多人不相信包括人类在内的生物是从低等生物进化而来的。他们感到震惊。
But Darwin's scientific studies were so convincing that more and more people started to believe his theory.
但是达尔文的科学研究是如此有说服力,以至于越来越多的人开始相信他的理论。
Today, On the Origin of Species is regarded as one of the most important works ever written.
今天,《物种起源》被认为是有史以来最重要的著作之一。
It has changed ideas about life on Earth forever.
它永远地改变了人们对地球上生物的看法。
And it all began with the journey on the Beagle.
而这一切都始于“贝格尔号”的旅程。

Imagine looking for your lost dog. You step into a cave. But instead of the dog, you find beautiful cave paintings. You see paintings of horses, deer, and bison that were drawn in black, brown, red and yellow. Your first question would probably be “Who did this?”
This is what happened to four French boys in 1940. They found the Lascaux caves. The paintings the boys discovered in those caves are about 17,000 years old. They were drawn by the ancient people called Cro-Magnons.
Cro-Magnons looked much like people of today. They used tools, such as fishing nets. But their art was really good. The main cave at Lascaux is called Great Hall of Bulls, which has a picture of horses in many colours. The largest animal is 18 feet long. There are smaller animals, such as bison, stags and a bear. There is also a strange spotted two-horned (两只角的) animal.
To the left of the main cave are the most famous paintings that are the drawings of animals in many different colours. One painting is called Little Horses. On the ceiling are horses and cows. The most unusual sight may be in the Shaft of the Dead Man where there is a rhinoceros (犀牛), a carefully drawn dead man, an injured bison and a bird.
Why did Cro-Magnon artists do these beautiful drawings on cave walls Did the drawings call upon some magic power Did the Cro-Magnon people hope that the drawings would bring good luck There is one thing the paintings seem to tell us. The Cro-Magnons were interested in the world. They looked at beauty and they understood it.

When a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn't sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds, VOCs for short.
Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It's a plant's way of crying out. But is anyone listening Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbors react.
Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the__tables__are__turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.
In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.
Does this mean that plants talk to each other Scientists don't know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn't a true, intentional back and forth.
Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate (亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There's a whole lot going on.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。科学家通过研究发现,植物受到袭击时会释放出某种特殊的化学物质来保护自己并“告知”附近的植物。
5.What does a plant do when it is under attack
A.It makes noises.
B.It gets help from other plants.
C.It stands quietly.
D.It sends out certain chemicals.
答案:D
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“reported that young maple trees ... seem to be an alarm”可知,植物受到伤害时会散发出一种特殊的气味,而这种特殊的气味就是某些化学物质。故选D。
6.What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in Paragraph 3
A.The attackers get attacked.
B.The insects gather under the table.
C.The plants get ready to fight back.
D.The perfumes attract natural enemies.
答案:A
解析:句意理解题。根据第三段中的“They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers.(它们散发出气味意在吸引不同的昆虫,这些昆虫是袭击者的天敌。)”,以及画线部分后的“The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.(正在吃午餐的袭击者现在就变成了午餐。)”可知,画线部分的意思是袭击者受到了它的天敌的袭击。故选A。
7.Scientists find from their studies that plants can ________.
A.predict natural disasters
B.protect themselves against insects
C.talk to one another intentionally
D.help their neighbors when necessary
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away.”和“They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers.”可知,植物能保护自己免受昆虫的伤害。故选B。
8.What can we infer from the last paragraph
A.The world is changing faster than ever.
B.People have stronger senses than before.
C.The world is more complex than it seems.
D.People in Darwin's time were more imaginative.
答案:C
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,达尔文设想了一个远比现实世界更繁忙、更喧嚣和更亲密的世界,而我们的感官却非常弱,我们还有很长的路要走。由此可推知,世界似乎比它看上去的样子更复杂。故选C。

Protecting the Wildlife
[精彩范文]
Protecting the Wildlife
It has been universally accepted that we human beings should live in harmony with wildlife, especially wild animals. However, the fact is that some species are threatened to disappear due to human activity.
Therefore, measures must be taken before things get worse. In the first place, we are supposed to raise the awareness of protecting the wildlife. Furthermore, laws should be made to prevent illegal hunting of wild animals, especially the rare species. Last but not least, it is necessary to set up nature reserves to rescue and protect the endangered wildlife.
Everyone can make a difference. Let's act now!

Imagine looking for your lost dog. You step into a cave. But instead of the dog, you find beautiful cave paintings. You see paintings of horses, deer, and bison that were drawn in black, brown, red and yellow. Your first question would probably be “Who did this?”
This is what happened to four French boys in 1940. They found the Lascaux caves. The paintings the boys discovered in those caves are about 17,000 years old. They were drawn by the ancient people called Cro-Magnons.
Cro-Magnons looked much like people of today. They used tools, such as fishing nets. But their art was really good. The main cave at Lascaux is called Great Hall of Bulls, which has a picture of horses in many colours. The largest animal is 18 feet long. There are smaller animals, such as bison, stags and a bear. There is also a strange spotted two-horned (两只角的) animal.
To the left of the main cave are the most famous paintings that are the drawings of animals in many different colours. One painting is called Little Horses. On the ceiling are horses and cows. The most unusual sight may be in the Shaft of the Dead Man where there is a rhinoceros (犀牛), a carefully drawn dead man, an injured bison and a bird.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了法国Lascaux (拉斯科)岩洞内的壁画。
Why did Cro-Magnon artists do these beautiful drawings on cave walls Did the drawings call upon some magic power Did the Cro-Magnon people hope that the drawings would bring good luck There is one thing the paintings seem to tell us. The Cro-Magnons were interested in the world. They looked at beauty and they understood it.
1.The author uses the word “you” in Paragraph 1 to ________.
A.attract readers' attention
B.make it clear that this is a true story
C.give readers good directions to find the caves
D.compare modern people with Cro-Magnon people
解析:推理判断题。第一段主要虚构了一个以读者为主人公的场景,目的是引起读者的注意。故选A。
2.Most of the drawings in the caves are about ________.
A.boys B.tools
C.humans D.animals
解析:细节理解题。根据第三、四段对壁画的描述可知,洞内的绝大多数壁画是关于动物的。故选D。
3.What does the passage mainly tell us
A.The cave paintings are beautiful.
B.Who found the beautiful cave paintings.
C.The Lascaux caves hold colourful ancient paintings.
D.Drawings of horses are on the walls of the Lascaux caves.
解析:主旨大意题。文章开头介绍了发现壁画的过程,接下来描述了这些壁画。所以文章主要告诉我们的是:Lascaux岩洞里有丰富多彩的古画。故选C。
4.The passage is most probably taken from ________.
A.a research paper
B.a cultural magazine
C.a science newspaper
D.a travel guide
解析:推理判断题。本文主要介绍了法国Lascaux岩洞内的壁画,这些古老的壁画本身就是宝贵的文化遗产。由此可推知,本文最有可能摘选自文化杂志。故选B。
B
When a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn't sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds, VOCs for short.
Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It's a plant's way of crying out. But is anyone listening Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbors react.
Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the__tables__are__turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.
In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.
Does this mean that plants talk to each other Scientists don't know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn't a true, intentional back and forth.
Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate (亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There's a whole lot going on.
篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文。科学家通过研究发现,植物受到袭击时会释放出某种特殊的化学物质来保护自己并“告知”附近的植物。
5.What does a plant do when it is under attack
A.It makes noises.
B.It gets help from other plants.
C.It stands quietly.
D.It sends out certain chemicals.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“reported that young maple trees ... seem to be an alarm”可知,植物受到伤害时会散发出一种特殊的气味,而这种特殊的气味就是某些化学物质。故选D。
6.What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in Paragraph 3
A.The attackers get attacked.
B.The insects gather under the table.
C.The plants get ready to fight back.
D.The perfumes attract natural enemies.
解析:句意理解题。根据第三段中的“They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers.(它们散发出气味意在吸引不同的昆虫,这些昆虫是袭击者的天敌。)”,以及画线部分后的“The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.(正在吃午餐的袭击者现在就变成了午餐。)”可知,画线部分的意思是袭击者受到了它的天敌的袭击。故选A。
7.Scientists find from their studies that plants can ________.
A.predict natural disasters
B.protect themselves against insects
C.talk to one another intentionally
D.help their neighbors when necessary
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away.”和“They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers.”可知,植物能保护自己免受昆虫的伤害。故选B。
8.What can we infer from the last paragraph
A.The world is changing faster than ever.
B.People have stronger senses than before.
C.The world is more complex than it seems.
D.People in Darwin's time were more imaginative.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,达尔文设想了一个远比现实世界更繁忙、更喧嚣和更亲密的世界,而我们的感官却非常弱,我们还有很长的路要走。由此可推知,世界似乎比它看上去的样子更复杂。故选C。

Protecting the Wildlife
It has been universally accepted that we human beings should live in harmony with wildlife, especially wild animals. However, the fact is that some species are threatened to disappear due to human activity.
Therefore, measures must be taken before things get worse. In the first place, we are supposed to raise the awareness of protecting the wildlife. Furthermore, laws should be made to prevent illegal hunting of wild animals, especially the rare species. Last but not least, it is necessary to set up nature reserves to rescue and protect the endangered wildlife.
Everyone can make a difference. Let's act now!
