34、rections: In this part of the test there are six passages. Following each passage there are five questions with four choices. Choose the best answer and mark youranswer on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneCells cannot remain alive outside certain limits of temperature, and much narrower li mits mark the

35、boundaries of effective functioning. Enzyme (酶 systems of mammals and birds are most efficient only within a narrow range around 37ºC; a departure of a few de grees from this value seriously impairs their functioning. Even though cells can survive wider fluctuations, the integrated actions of b

36、odily systems are impaired. Other animals have a wider tolerance for changes of bodily temperature.For centuries it has been recognized that mammals and birds differ from other animal s in the way they regulate body temperatures. Ways of characterizing the difference have become more accurate and me

37、aningful over time, but popular terminology still reflects the old division into “warm-blooded and “cold-blooded” species; warm-blooded included ma mmals and birds, whereas all other creatures were considered cold-blooded. As more speci es were studied, it became evident that this classification was

38、 inadequate. A fence lizard o r a desert iguana (鬣蜥each cold-bloodedusually has a body temperature only a degre e or two below that of humans and so is not cold. Therefore the next distinction was ma de between animals that maintain a constant body temperature, called homotherms(同溫動物, and those whos

39、e body temperature varies with their environment, called poikilotherms (變溫動物. But this classification also proved inadequate, because among mammals there are many that vary their body temperatures during hibernation. Furthermore, many inverteb rates(無脊椎動物 that live in the depths of the ocean never e

40、xperience a change in the c hill of the deep water, and their body temperatures remain constant.The current distinction is between animals whose body temperature is regulated chiefl y by internal metabolic processes and those whose temperature is regulated by, and who g et most of their heat from, t

41、he environment. The former are called endotherms (恒溫動物, and the latter are called ectotherms (外溫動物. Most ectotherms do regulate their body t emperature, and they do so mainly by locomoting to favorable sites or by changing their exposure to external sources of heat. Endotherms (mainly mammals and bi

42、rds also regulat e their temperature by choosing favorable environments, but primarily they regulate their t emperatures by making a variety of internal adjustments.61. The passage mainly discusses _.A. body temperatures of various animalsB. the newest research on measuring temperatureC. methods of

43、temperature reductionD. the classification of animals by temperature regulation62. Which of the following terms refers primarily to mammals and birds?A. Warm-blooded.B. Ectothermic.C. Cold-blooded.D. Poikilothermic63. In general, the temperature of endotherms is regulated _.A. consciouslyB. internal

44、lyC. inadequatelyD. environmentally64. According to the passage, the chief way in which ectotherms regulate their temperature is by_.A. seeking out appropriate locationsB. hibernating part of the yearC. staying in deep waterD. triggering certain metabolic processes65. According to the passage, human

45、 beings mainly regulate their body temperatures by _ _.A. choosing favorable environmentsB. internal metabolic processesC. eating more foodD. doing physical exercisesPassage T woThe narrow passage ended in a round arch fringed with ivy and creepers. The childre n passed through the arch into a narro

46、w ravine whose banks were of stone, moss-covered. Trees growing on the top of the bank arched across and the sunlight came through in ch anging patches of brightness. The path, which was of greeny-grey stones where heaps of l eaves had drifted, sloped steeply down, and at the end of it was another r

47、ound arch, quit e dark inside, above which were rose rocks and grass and bushes.“Its like the outside of a railway tunnel,” said Jimmy.“It might be the entrance to an enchanted castle,” said Kathleen.Under the drifted damp leaves the path was firm and stony. At the dark arch they st opped.“There are

48、 steps down,” said Gerald.V ery slowly and carefully they went down the steps. Gerald struck a match when the last step was found to have no edge and to be in fact the beginning of a passage turnin g to the left.“This,” said Jimmy, “might take us back to the road.”“Or under it,” said Gerald, “weve c

49、ome down eleven steps.”They went on, following Gerald, who went very slowly for fear, as he explained, of steps. The passage was very dark.Then came a glimmer of daylight that grew and grew and presently ended in another arch that looked out over a scene so like a picture out of a book about Italy t

50、hat every ones breath was taken away, and they simply walked forward silent and staring. A short avenue of cypresses led, winding as it went, to a marble terrace that lay broad and white in the sunlight. The children, blinking, leaned their arms on the flat balustrade (欄桿 an d gazed.Immediately belo

51、w them was a lake with swans and an island with willow trees, and among the trees gleamed the white figures of statues. Against a hill to the left was a ro und white building with pillars and to the right a waterfall came tumbling down among mossy stones to splash into the lake. Steps went from the

52、terrace to the water and other steps to the green lawns beside it. A way across the grassy slopes deer were feeding and i n the distance was an enormous house of grey stone, like nothing the children had ever s een before.“It is an ench anted castle,” said Gerald.“There arent any enchanted castles,”

53、 said Jimmy, “you ought to know that.”“Well, anyway, Im going to explore,” said Gerald. “Y ou neednt come if you dont want to.”The others followed. There never was such a gardenout of a picture or a fairy tale. They passed quite close to the deer, who only raised their heads to look and did not see

54、m startled at all. After a long stretch of grass, they passed under an avenue of lime trees and came into a rose garden bordered with thick hedges.“I know we shall meet a gardener in a minute and hell ask what were doing here, and then what shall we say?” Kathleen asked.“Well say weve lost our way,

55、and it will be quite true,” said Gerald.66. When they came out of the last arch the children were silent because _.A. they were out of breathB. they were amazed at what they sawC. the light hurt their eyesD. they saw an Italian picture67. From the terrace the children were able to see _.A. a lake wi

56、th trees growing in itB. some swans among the trees on an islandC. a lake just behind themD. some statues on an island in the lake68. How was it possible to reach the lake from the terrace?A. There were some steps leading down.B. There were some steps leading right.C. There was a waterfall going dow

The story suggests that the children _.A. had been told about the castle beforeB. had seen pictures of the castle in a bookC. had no idea what they were going to seeD. knew they were going to see something wonderfulPassage ThreeThere i
