　　(2012·河北重点中学联考)

　　Scientists at Harvard University and Bates College find female chimpanzees (黑猩猩) appear to treat sticks as dolls, carrying them around until they have children of their own.

　　Young males engage in such behavior much less frequently.

　　The new work by Sonya M.

　　Kahlenberg and Richard W. Wrangham, described this week in the journal Current Biology, provides the first evidence of a wild non­human species playing with dolls, as well as the first known sex difference in a wild animal's choice of playthings.

　　The two researchers say their work adds to a growing body of evidence that human children are probably born with their own ideas of how they want to behave, rather than simply mirroring other girls who play with dolls and boys who play with trucks. Doll play among humans could have its origins in object—carrying by earlier apes (猿类), they say, suggesting that toy selection is probably not due entirely to socialization.

　　“In humans, there are obvious sex differences in children's toy play, and these are remarkably similar across cultures，” says Kahlenberg. “While socialization by elders and peers has been the primary explanation, our work suggests that biology may also have an important role to play in activity preferences.”

　　In 14 years of data on chimpanzee behavior at the Kibale National Park in Uganda, Kahlenberg and Wrangham counted more than 100 examples of stick­carrying. Some young chimpanzees carried sticks into the nest to sleep with them and on one occasion built a separate nest for the stick.“We have seen juveniles occasionally carrying sticks for many years, and because they sometimes treated them rather like dolls, we wanted to know if in general this behavior tended to represent something like playing with dolls，” says Wrangham, a Professor at Harvard. “If the doll hypothesis (假设) was right, we thought that females should carry sticks more than males do, and that the chimpanzees should stop carrying sticks when they had their first child.

　　We have now watched enough young chimpanzees to prove both points.”

　　文章大意：动物心理是科学家们研究的一个重要领域。在黑猩猩的世界里，雌性黑猩猩常把棍子当作洋娃娃抱在怀里，而雄性黑猩猩却较少这样做。这是为什么呢？

　　1．What does a female chimpanzee do with sticks?

　　A．She gives them to her child to play with.

　　B．She treats them as dolls.

　　C．She makes useful tools from them.

　　D．She treats them as weapons.

　　答案：B　细节理解题。由第一段“Scientists at Harvard University and Bates College find female chimpanzees (黑猩猩) appear to treat sticks as dolls”可知。

　　2．What causes the different toy selection of chimpanzees, according to the passage?

　　A．Sex difference.

　　B．Socialization.

　　C．Environment.

　　D．Cultural difference.

　　答案：A　细节理解题。由第一段最后一句话“Young males engage in such behavior much less frequently.”可知。

　　3．We can infer from the fourth paragraph that ________.

　　A．socialization has nothing to do with human's choice of playthings

　　B．sex difference is the only factor in human's choice of playthings

　　C．the biology factor may also influence toy choice

　　D．people choose different toys in different cultures

　　答案：C　细节理解题。由第四段“our work suggests that biology may also have an important role to play in activity preferences”可知。

　　4．It can be concluded from the passage that ________.

　　A．both humans and chimpanzees choose their playthings due to sex difference

　　B．different factors cause humans and chimpanzees to choose different playthings

　　C．only female chimpanzees have playthings

　　D．chimpanzees usually choose playthings for their children

　　答案：A　推理判断题。文章讲到，雌性黑猩猩常把棍子当作洋娃娃抱在怀里，而雄性黑猩猩却较少这样做；同时还提到，女孩子和男孩子玩的玩具不同。故选A项。

　　B

　　(2012·淄博一模)

　　Maricel Apatan, 22, stands in the kitchen of the Edsa Shangi­La Hotel in Manila, preparing to decorate a cheesecake. It would seem to be a routine task for a cake chef，but Maricel is no ordinary chef—she has no hands.

　　Maricel has come a long way since the day in September 2000 when she and her uncle were attacked near their farm. Fortunately, both of them survived, but the 11­year­old girl lost her hands. In 2004，she entered a Manila training centre for people with disabilities. She learned how to write and do housework and，more importantly, came to terms with her disability.

　　After graduation from high school, she took a two­year Hotel and Restaurant Management course and flourished even though she was the only disabled student in the course. After she moved back to Manila to continue her studies, the media started reporting on this determined young woman. She didn't shy away from the attention. “I wanted others living with disabilities to believe it's possible to live a normal life，”Maricel says.

　　When managers at the Edsa Shangri­La Hotel saw Maricel on television, they hired her as part of the hotel's Care for People project. She has also accomplished her goal of inspiring others. One of them is Ronelyn Calumpiano, a 21­year­old with cerebral palsy(脑瘫)．She saw Maricel on television and was moved by her confidence. Ronelyn will soon start classes and is already planning a career in IT.

　　Maricel's three younger sisters have moved to Manila. She pays for the rent of their small apartment，while their parents look after their family farm in Mindanao. “It is difficult to make ends meet but I don't lose hope. I believe anything is possible if you dream, work hard and pray.”

　　文章大意：22岁的Maricel Apatan是一位失去了双手的残疾人，但是她没有放弃希望，努力自立自强。

　　5．“Maricel is no ordinary chef” because________.

　　A. she is better than other chefs

　　B. she is physically disabled

　　C. she can do a routine task

　　D. she is good at decorating cakes

　　答案：B　细节理解题。由第一段最后一句话“It would seem to be a routine task for a cake chef，but Maricel is no ordinary chef—she has no hands.”可知，Maricel没有了双手，是一位残疾人。

　　6．Which of the following is NOT true about Maricel?

　　A. She survived while her uncle did not.

　　B. She didn't shy away from public attention.

　　C. She has inspired some disabled people.

　　D. She managed to make a living by herself.

　　答案：A　细节理解题。由第二段第二句话“Fortunately, both of them survived, but the 11­year­old girl lost her hands.”可知，她们二人都幸存了下来。所以A项错误。

　　7．The underlined word “flourished” in Paragraph 3 is similar in meaning to________.

　　A. was rejected

　　B. was employed

　　C. recovered well

　　D. developed well

　　答案：D　猜测词义题。所在句意是“她参加了课程培训，而且学习得很好，尽管她是班上唯一的一位残疾学生”。

　　8．According to the text, Ronelyn________.

　　A. works in an IT company

　　B. was inspired by Maricel

　　C. once lived in Mindanao

　　D. has already started classes

　　答案：B　细节理解题。由第四段最后三句话可知，Ronelyn受到了Maricel的鼓舞，准备接受培训，在IT业从事工作。

　　9．What does the author want to tell us in the text?

　　A. We should be determined and never lose hope.

　　B. We shouldn't look down upon the disabled.

　　C. We should help those who suffer disabilities.

　　D. We should feel sympathy for the unfortunate.

　　答案：A　推理判断题。由文章大意可知，我们应当学习Maricel的事迹，从中学习她坚强的毅力和不放弃的精神。
