Most people think of birds as feathered animals that fly. Scientists,   36 , do not define (给…下定义) birds as animals that fly, because some birds do not. Of the 10,000 or so species of birds, 46 cannot   37 . Flight plays a key role in   38  for most birds. It allows them to find food over a   39  area and to get away from enemies. Ancestors of flightless birds may have   40   their ability to fly because they had no regular predators (捕食者) or did not need to fly to find food. Rather than fly, some of these birds developed other   41  to catch food and avoid enemies. Two examples of   42  birds are penguins and ostriches.
  43  birds that fly, penguins do not have wide wings or large feathers. In order to catch the fish they feed on, penguins use their powerful wings to swim   44 . And when they swim,  they look as if they are flying through the water. The   45  of penguins’ bodies makes it possible for them to dive deep underwater,  46  their thick feathers protect them from the cold.
Ostriches are known for their long legs, long necks, and large size. To   47  themselves, they stay in groups and use their excellent sight and hearing to   48  enemies. As soon as    49  approaches, they can run at a speed of more than 65 kilometers per hour to   50  . In addition to using their strong legs to run, they can kick powerfully. 
Not all flightless birds have been   51  in protecting themselves. Flightless birds on some islands had no enemies until people   52 . These birds were hunted and easily caught by people and the animals   53  by people. Human land development has   54  the habitats of some birds. A number of flightless birds   55  because they were unable to adapt to new conditions and new enemies.

Ban Fur? Then Why Not Leather?
Much to the displeasure of some local businesses, the City Council in West Hollywood, California, voted without opposition last week to ban the sale of fur products. Should laws be involved in this issue? Is it unfair to ban sales of fur, but not sales of leather and hides (兽皮)?
Animals Do Not Have Rights
By Tibor R. Machan
My view is that animals do not have basic rights. It is a matter of ethics (伦理学) and not of the laws of human societies. If animals had such rights as human beings do, they would have to be held responsible for killing fellow animals in the wild. That way of thinking about animals makes a category mistake. Using animals, including their fur or organs, to improve people's lives is acceptable.
A Small Step Against Cruelty
By Kate Carter
Both fur and leather are the skins of dead animals. Why should we think that the lovable furry ones deserve more of a life than the less pleasing ones? Some say leather is  less cruel because it's a byproduct (副产品) of the meat industry. But this isn't really true. Some cheap leather may be a byproduct of the meat industry, but often it's the other way round. In South Africa, where there is a developing market for ostrich(鸵鸟)farms, the skins account for roughly 80 percent of the slaughtered (宰杀)birds' value, a mere 20 percent of which comes from the meat.
"Who" Are You Wearing?
By Marc Bekoff
West Hollywood's ban is a move in the right direction. However, we must work to ban the sales of leather and hides, too. Furs come from animals who are attacked to become clothing, while some leather and hides come from slaughterhouse(屠宰场) animals. We must remember that when people choose to wear fur, leather and hides, they are wearing formering conscious beings. So it's a matter of who they are wearing, not what they are wearing because these animals must be referred to as who and not what or that.
【小题1】What is the passage mainly about?

A.West Hollywood's ban on fur products.
B.Differences between fur and leather sales.
C.The government's role in protecting animals.
D.The ecological imbalance in West Hollywood.
【小题2】What is Kate Carter's opinion about wearing fur and wearing leather?
A.Both are decided by the meat industry.
B.There is little distinction (区别) between them.
C.Wearing fur is generally more acceptable.
D.Wearing leather is cheaper than wearing fur.
【小题3】What is Marc Bekoff’s attitude towards sales of fur?
A.Sympathetic.B.Careless.C.Tolerant.D.Opposed.

科目:高中英语 来源:2014届广东省汕头市高二10月月考英语试卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解

We each have a unique genetic (基因的,遗传的) make-up. Every cell of your body has the same set of about 100,000 separate genes made of DNA. These are the instructions for producing a person. Genes decide everything from the colour of your skin to the way your brain works. You have one of several billion combinations of DNA which come from the random mixing of your parents’ genes. Except for identical twins (同卵双胞胎), no one has the same combination as another person. You are unique! You are unique in another way too: in the way you are raised and all the experiences you have from before birth to adult life. These experiences influence you, your behaviour and attitudes, and the choices you make.

But are genes or life experiences more important in shaping your appearance and personality? Scientists are studying twins to find out. One set of twins occurs every 70 births---some are identical and others are non-identical twins. Identical twins are special because they share exactly the same genes and often the same environment. Non-identical twins are more like ordinary brothers and sisters.

Some identical twins have been adopted and brought up in different homes. With identical genes but a different home environment, scientists can study twins to see how much a particular feature depends on the genes we inherit. For example, we know that eye problems, like short-sightedness, are mostly genetic. But resistance to pain is largely dependent on experiences. Genes also influence our eating habits. Identical twins brought up apart often like to eat at the same time of day and feel full after eating the same amount. Non-identical twins in similar circumstances have more varied eating habits. Identical twins are also more likely to follow the same patterns for marriage and divorce than non-identical twins.

Scientists are trying to identify the different genes that influence our behaviour. Some people are thrill-seekers and get into risk-taking and adventurous activities. They take up extreme sports like bungee jumping and possibly take drugs. Scientists have discovered a gene which affects this.

We could ask, “Are our lives determined by our genes or our upbringing?” Scientists are learning more all the time, but it is certainly true that both are important in making us who we are.

1.What is the main idea of the first paragraph?

   A. We cannot easily change our physical appearance.

   B. How we turn out depends on our parents’ genes.

   C. Everyone has a physical double somewhere in the world.

   D. Both our genes and our experiences make us who we are.

2.Why are scientists studying twins?

   A. To find out how many twins are born every year.

   B. To discover what shapes us as individuals.

   C. To compare differences between twins.

   D. To study brother-and-sister relationships.

3.According to the passage, __________.

   A. one in 70 twins are genetically identical

   B. non-identical twins are usually not of the same sex

   C. twins separated at birth behave exactly the same

   D. identical twins are genetically the same

4.Which of the following is most affected by experience according the passage?

   A. Eating habits.   B. Eye-sight.   C. Pain resistance.   D. Marriage patterns.

5.What does the underlined “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

   A. Our love of sport.             B. Our attitude to risk-taking.

   C. Our skill at bungee jumping.    D. Our ability to take drugs.
