Reading Comprehension

  A barn owl(猫头鹰) silently flies at night through the dark forest. Suddenly, the large bird hears a mouse running through the leaves. The bird quickly changes its flight path, drops down, and scoops up(抓起) the mouse in its talons(猛禽的爪). Another meal has been successfully captured.

  How is the barn owl able to pinpoint the location of the mouse in the dark? Credit(把…归功于) the bird' s excellent hearing and its ability to determine the exact location of the source of a sound.

  According to a recent study at Stanford University, a barn owl learned how to pinpoint the location of a sound source when it was only about two weeks old. The owl did this by noting the difference in the time it took a sound to reach each ear and in the difference in the loudness of the sound in each ear.

  In another test, three young barn owls were given eyeglasses when their eyes were just beginning to open. The lenses(镜片) in the glasses distorted(使变形) a scene so that an object an owl was looking at seemed to be 20 degrees to the left of its actual position.

  The scientists found that whenever one of the young owls heard a sound, it would look at a spot 20 degrees to the left of the sound source. Thus, the scientists concluded, the owls learned at a very young age how to locate the source of a sound.

1.What is the reason for the barn owl to successfully catch the mouse?

[  ]

A.It has very good eyesight at night.

B.It has very sharp hearing.

C.It is very good at determining the location of the sound.

D.Both B and C.

2.According to a recent study, a barn owl learned how to ________ when it was only about two weeks old.

[  ]

A.fly fast without sound

B.catch the mouse with its talon

C.locate the sound source

D.open its eyes wider

3.What do the words “to pinpoint the location” in the second paragraph mean?

[  ]

A.To find the exact position.

B.To notice the particular smell.

C.To recognize the real shape.

D.To hear the sound clearly.

4.Why did one of the young owls, after hearing a sound, look at a spot 20 degrees left of the sound source?

[  ]

A.It was too young to find the correct spot.

B.It was used to looking at the spot 20 degrees to the left of an object.

C.It was a mistake often made by this young owl.

D.It was wearing eyeglasses which distorted the object.

5.What is the main idea of the passage?

[  ]

A.How did the scientists train the owls to catch mice at night?

B.Why can eyeglasses help owls to catch mice?

C.Scientists used eyeglasses to make owls see better.

D.Why can owls catch mice at night?

  What do you think after knowing the information?Do you often listen to MP3 players at a too high voice?Are you scared?

  The sizes of MP3 players are very small, but small MP3 players make it easy to take hundreds of songs with you.So many young people carry them and listen to music every day.MP3 players are very popular among students.

  The scientists say teenagers should be far from high volume(音量), including mobile phones' noise.A study says“High volume and long listening time can cause hearing problems”They think if young people listen at more than 89 clecibels(分贝)every day, they'll lose their hearing in five years.A scientist said“So many young people often use personal music players and mobile phone at a high voice.I'm afraid that they may be unknowingly losing their hearing.”

A person will become deaf in 5 years if he or she listens to a MP3 player every day.

阅读下面的短文,掌握其大意,然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选择最佳选项。

  IQ(intelligence quotient智商)is a score that shows a person's level of intelligence.

  People used to believe that some people are born with a high IQ and some aren't.

    1   , a study by scientist at University College London has challenged(挑战)this idea.According to an article last October on the Journal Nature, scientists are beginning to think that our IQ is not a constant(不变的)score.

  The scientists tested 33 healthy young people in 2004 between the ages of 12 and 16.Then they did tests again four years later, when the same people were between 16 and 20.

  Scientists found big changes in the IQ scores between 2008 and 2004.Some   2   and some fell   3   as many as 21 points.

  To test whether these scores were meaningful, the scientists compared them with results from brain scans(扫描).They found that the IQ changes matched changes in the structure(结构)of the subjects’ brains.“A change in 20 points is a huge   4  , ” said Professor Cathy Price, who led the research.He said it could mean the difference between an average and a   5   person.The team has not found a clear cause for these changes.However, they say it is   6   that education plays a role in changing IQ.

  “Here we have shown that children's   7   is likely to be still developing, ” says Price.“We have to be careful not to write off   8   performers at an early stage.In fact, their IQ may improve in a few more years.”
