FISH EARS TELL FISH TALES

Fish have ears. Really. They’re quite small and have no opening to the outside world carrying sound through the body. For the past seven years, Simon Thorrold, a university professor, has been examining fish ears, small round ear bones called otoliths(耳石).

As fish grow, so do their otolith. Each day, their otoliths gain a ring of calcium carbonate (碳酸钙). By looking through a microscope (显微镜) and counting these rings, Thorrold can determine the exact age of a young fish. As a fish gets older, its otolith no longer get daily rings. Instead, they get yearly rings, which can also be counted, giving information about the fish’s age, just like the growth rings of a tree. Ring counting is nothing new to fish scientists. But Thorrold has turned to a new direction. They’re examining the chemical elements(元素) of each otolith ring. The daily ring gives us the time, but chemistry tells us about the environment in which the fish swam on any given day. These elements tell us about the chemistry of the water that the fish was in. it also says something about water temperature, which determines how much of these elements will gather within each otolith ring.

Thorrold can tell, for example, if a fish spent time in the open ocean before entering the less salty water of coastal areas. He can basically tell where fish are spending their time at any given stage of history.

In the case of the Atlantic croaker, a popular saltwater food fish, Thorrold and his assistant have successfully followed the traveling of young fish from mid-ocean to the coast, a journey of many hundreds of miles.

This is important to managers in the fish industry, who know nearly nothing about the whereabouts(行踪) of the young fish for most food fish in the ocean. Eager to learn about his technology, fish scientists are now lending Thorrold their ears.

21.What can we learn about fish ears from the text?

A.They are small soft rings.

B.They are not seen from the outside.

C.They are openings only on food fish.

D.They are not used to receive sound.

22.Why does the writer compare the fish to trees?

A.Trees gain a growth ring each day.

B.Trees also have otoliths.

C.Their growth rings are very small.

D.They both have growth rings.

23.Why is it important to study the chemistry of otolith rings?

A.The elements of the otoliths can tell the history of the sea.

B.Chemical contents of otoliths can tell how fast fish can swim.

C.We can know more about fish and their living environment.

D.Scientists can know exactly how old a fish is.

24.How would you understand “fish scientists are now lending their ears”?

A.They are very interested in Thorrold’s research finds.

B.They want to know where they can find fish.

C.They lend their fish for chemical studies.

D.They wonder if Thorrold can find growth rings from their ears.

James Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves. His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9. There, a school teacher asked the youth his name.

“J.C,” he replied. She thought he had said “Jesse”, and he had a new name. Owens ran his first race at age 13. After high school, he went to Ohio state University. He had to work part time so as to pay for his education. As a second-year student, in the Big Ten games in 1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Fames a year later.

A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally, fell down a flight of stairs.

His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet. He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event. He did try, and the results are in the record book.

The stage was set for Owens’victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African-American winners.

“It was all right with me”he said years later. “I didn’t go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”Having returned from Berlin, he received on telephone call from the president of his own country, either. In fact, he was not honoured by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.

Owens’ Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles, and dogs.

“Sure, it bothered (烦扰) me,” he said later. “But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”

In time, however, his gold medals changed his life. “They have kept me alive over the years.” He once said. “Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard.”

25.Owens got his other name “Jesse” when ________.

A.He went to Ohio State University

B.His teacher made fun of him

C.He won gold medals in the Big Ten meet

On a cold winter day, many years ago, a French art teacher named Pierre Chelier got on a train in Lyon to go to Pairs. When he started his journey, he didn’t know that it was the beginning of almost 40 years of accidents and near-death experiences. During the journey, the train fell into an icy river, killing 12 passengers. Chelier managed to swim back to the river bank. He only had a broken leg.

Two years later, Chelier was on a plane from Paris to Moscow when a door suddenly opened and he fell out. A few minutes later, the plane crashed(碰撞); 27 people were killed. Chelier was so lucky that he landed in a haystack(干草堆).

A few years later, he was hit by a bus, but again had no serious injuries. Then a year after that, he was driving on a mountain road when he saw a truck coming straight at him. He drove the car off the road, jumped out, landed in a tree---and watched his car fall 100 metres down the mountain.

“there are two ways you can look at it,”Chelier said. “I’m either the world’s unluckiest man, or the world’s luckiest.” When a reporter asked Chelier what he thought, he chose the “luckiest” one.

Two years ago, aged 71, Chelier bought his first lottery ticket(彩票) in 50 years and won more than 2 million.

After this, a TV company in America said they wanted him to make an advertisement. At first he accepted, but then he changed his mind. Chelier said he wouldn’t fly to Los Angeles for the filming, because he didn’t want to push his luck. Who knows? If he had accepted the invitation, maybe he would have had another accident. But Mr Chelier is a lucky man. If he had had another accident, he probably would have survived that too!

29.In the train accident many years ago , Chelier ________.

A.didn’t get injured at all

B.was lucky enough to be alive

C.was finally pulled out of the river

D.was the only passenger to survive

30.Why did Chelier refuse to make the advertisement?

B.Because he didn’t want to leave home.

C.Because he didn’t want to risk his life.

D.Because he didn’t like the TV company.

31.The text mainly talks about ________.

A. a man with nine lives

B.the unluckiest man in the world

C. a man who traveled around the world

D. a man who earned 2 million in a lottery

Imagine driving down a country road past a huge, open field where goats are eating grass. Suddenly a truck breaks down and makes a loud noise. Just as suddenly, the goats fall to the ground.

A few moments pass. The goats are back on their feet. What just happened? Well, the goats were very frightened and dropped to the ground, but not all goats act like this. There is only one kind of goat that behaves this way when it is surprised. It is called a Tennessee fainting (晕倒) goat.

In the 1800s, a farmer arrived in Marshalll County. Tennessee, with a few goats and a cow. People say he came from Nova Scotia, Canada. Since the man did not talk much, no one knew where he got these goats. When he left, he took the cow, but he sold the goats.

The behavior of one of the goats was different from most others. Being frightened caused the goat’s body to go stiff (僵直) and sometimes fall over. No one had seen goats do this before. They began to call this new goat a Tennessee Fainting Goat. This special kind of goat does not actually faint. They just look like they do. The fainting goats stay awake. The baby goat, however, usually do fall over, but the good thing is that they do not have far to fall. Some older ones learn to stand near something like a fence or a tree, just in case they are frightened.

Now there are about three thousand fainting goats in the United States. People enjoy raising them, because goats of this kind are gentle, smart ad playful. They just get scared stiff now and them. The moment of stiffness only lasts about ten or fifteen seconds. Then the goats walk and act like any other goat.

32.What happens to the goats that fall to the ground a few moments later?

A.They fall asleep.

B.They eat much more.

C.They stand up again.

D.They are taken away by the truck.

33.Which of the following would most likely cause a fainting goat to fall?

A.Green fields.

B. A light wind.

C. Loud thunder.

D. Pleasant

smells.

34.What do we know about the fainting goats?

A.No one likes to raise them.

B.Not all of them really fall over.

C.Their stiffness lasts a long time.

D.Not all of them stay awake when they faint.

35.This text is about an animal that ________.

A.likes eating outside

B.sleeps during the day

87f1dc026cdb6f1aff00bed5b9f3f90f76c64d85es from Canada

D.acts in a strange way
