15、r bodies grow and muscles develop with the【 C1】 _of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our【 C2】_capacity. Constant learning【 C3】 _us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, an

Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the【 C6】 _of knowledge. On the

With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind.

20、 Section B 36 Animals on the Move A)It looked like a scene from “Jaws“ but without the dramatic music. A huge shark was lowly swimming through the water, its tail swinging back and forth like the pendulum of a clock. B)Suddenly sensitive nerve ending in the sharks skin picked up vibrations of a stru

21、ggling fish. The shark was immediately transformed into a deadly, efficient machine of death. With muscles taut, the shark knifed through the water at a rapid speed. In a flash the shark caught its victim, a large fish, in its powerful jaws. Then, jerking its head back and forth, the shark tore huge

22、 chunks of flesh from its victim and swallowed them. Soon the action was over. Moving to Survive C)In pursuing its prey, the shark demonstrated in a dramatic way the important role of movement, or locomotion, in animals. D)Like the shark, most animals use movement to find food. They also use locomot

23、ion to escape enemies, find a mate, and explore new territories. The methods of locomotion include crawling, hopping, slithering, flying, swimming, or walking. E)Humans have the added advantage of using their various inventions to move about in just about any kind of environment. Automobiles, rocket

24、s, and submarines transport humans from deep oceans to as far away as the moon. However, for other animals movement came about naturally through millions of years of evolution. One of the most successful examples of animal locomotion is that of the shark. Its ability to quickly zero in on its prey h

25、as always impressed scientists. But it took a detailed study by Duke University marine biologists S. A. Wainwright, F. Vosburgh, and J. H. Hebrank to find out how the sharks did it. In their study the scientists observed sharks swimming in a tank at Marine land in Saint Augustine, Fla. Movies were t

26、aken of the sharks movements and analyzed. Studies were also made of shark skin and muscle. Skin Is the Key F)The biologists discovered that the skin of the shark is the key to the animals high efficiency in swimming through the water. The skin contains many fibers that crisscross like the inside of

27、 a belted radial tire. The fibers are called collagen fibers. These fibers can either store or release large amounts of energy depending on whether the fibers are relaxed or taut. When the fibers are stretched, energy is stored in them the way energy is stored in the string of a bow when pulled tigh

28、t. When the energy is released, the fibers become relaxed. G)The Duke University biologists have found that the greatest stretching occurs where the shark bends its body while swimming. During the bodys back and forth motion, fibers along the outside part of the bending body stretch greatly. Much po

29、tential energy is stored in the fibers. This energy is released when the shark s body snaps back the other way. H)As energy is alternately stored and released on both sides of the animals body, the tail whips strongly back and forth. This whip-like action propels the animal through the water like a

30、living bullet. Source of Energy I)What causes the fibers to store so much energy? In finding the answer the Duke University scientists learned that the shark s similarity to a belted radial tire doesn t stop with the skin. Just as a radial tire is inflated by pressure, so, too, is the area just unde

31、r the sharks collagen “radials“. Instead of air pressure, however, the pressure in the shark may be due to the force of the blood pressing on the collagen fibers. J)When the shark swims slowly, the pressure on the fibers is relatively low. The fibers are more relaxed, and the shark is able to bend i

32、ts body at sharp angles. The animal swims this way when looking around for food or just swimming. However, when the shark detects an important food source, some fantastic involuntary changes take place. K)The pressure inside the animal may increase by 10 times. This pressure change greatly stretches

33、 the fibers, enabling much energy to be stored. L)This energy is then transferred to the tail, and the shark is off. The rest of the story is predictable. Dolphin Has Speed Record M)Another fastmarine animal is the dolphin. This seagoing mammal has been clocked at speeds of 32 kilometers(20 miles)an

34、 hour. Biologists studying the dolphin have discovered that, like the shark, the animal s efficient locomotion can be traced to its skin. A dolphin s skin is made up in such a way that it offers very little resistance to the water flowing over it. Normally when a fish or other object moves slowly th

35、rough the water, the water flows smoothly past the body. This smooth flow is known as laminar flow. However, at faster speeds the water becomes more turbulent along the moving fish. This turbulence muses friction and slows the fish down. N)In a dolphin the skin is so flexible that it bends and yield

36、s to the waviness of the water. O)The waves, in effect, become tucked into the skins folds. This allows the rest of the water to move smoothly by in a laminar flow. Where other animals would be slowed by turbulent water at rapid speeds, the dolphin can race through the water at record breaking speed

37、s. Other Animals Less Efficient P)Not all animals move as efficiently as sharks and dolphins. Perhaps the greatest loser in locomotion efficiency is the slug. The slug(鼻涕虫 ), which looks like a snail without a shell, lays down a slimy(黏滑的 )trail over which it crawls. It uses so much energy producing

38、 the slimy mucus(黏液 )and crawling over it that a mouse traveling the same distance uses only one twelfth as much energy. Q)Scientists say that because of the slugs inefficient use of energy, its lifestyle must be restricted. That is, the animals are forced to confine themselves to small areas for ob

39、taining food and finding proper living conditions. Have humans ever been faced with this kind of problem? 37 Most animals like sharks, use locomotion to escape enemies and find a mate. 38 When the shark swims slowly, the fibers are relaxed and pressure of them is low. 39 Slugs inefficient use of ene

40、rgy confines them to small areas. 40 During the bodys back and forth motion, much potential energy will be stored in the fibers. 41 The high efficiency in swimming of sharks largely dues to its skin. 42 Different kinds of inventions make human move around in nearly any kind of environment. 43 The ta

41、il whips, because the energy on each side of the body is different. 44 Ten times increase of pressure stretches fibers, and much energy will be stored in the process. 45 A dolphin s skin has very little resistance to flowing water. 46 Other animals would be slowed by turbulent water, while dolphin c

42、an race through at a high speed. Section C 46 From the health point of view we are living in a marvelous age. We are immunized from birth against many of the most dangerous diseases. A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery. It is almost certain that one da

43、y remedies will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased enormously. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the incredible slaughter of men, women and children on the roads. Man vs t

44、he motor-car! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen. It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel, his car becomes the extension

45、of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man s very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-year-olds and utterly selfish. All

46、their hidden frustrations, disappointments and jealousies seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving. The surprising thing is that society smiles so benignly on the motorist and seems to condone his behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almost un

47、inhabitable because of heavy tragic: towns are made ugly by huge car parks: the countryside is desecrated by road networks: and the mass annual slaughter becomes nothing more than a statistic, to be conveniently forgotten. It is high time a world code were created to reduce this senseless waste of h

48、uman life. With regard to driving, the laws of some countries are notoriously lax and even the strictest are not strict enough. A code which was universally accepted could only have a dramatically beneficial effect on the accident rate. Here are a few examples of some the things that might be done.

49、The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is: all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so: the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21: all vehicles should be put through stringent annual tests for safety. Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can impair a person s driving ability. Present drinking and driving laws(where they exist)should be made much stricter. Maximum and minimum speed lim
