Among the superior
31、 characteristics developed through adaptation are those that may help in getting food or shelter, in providing protection, and in producing and protecting the young. That results in the evolution of more and more organisms that are better fitted to their environments. Each living thing is adapted to
32、 its way of life in a general way, but each is adapted especially to its own distinct class. A plant, for example, depends upon its roots to fix itself firmly and to absorb water and inorganic chemicals. It depends upon its green leaves for using the suns energy to make food from inorganic chemicals
33、. These are general adaptations, common to most plants. In addition, there are special adaptations that only certain kinds of plants have. Many animals have adaptations that help them escape from their enemies. Some insects are hidden by their body color or shape, and many look like a leaf or a litt
34、le branch. The coats of deer are colored to mix with the surroundings. Many animals have the ability to remain completely still when an enemy is near. Organisms have a great variety of ways of adapting. They may adapt in their structure, function, and genetics; in their development and production of
35、 the young; and in other respects. An organism may create its own environment, as do warm-blooded mammals, which have the ability to adjust body heat exactly to maintain their ideal temperature despite changing weather. Usually adaptations are an advantage, but sometimes an organism is so well adapt
36、ed to a particular environment that, if conditions change, it finds it difficult or impossible to readapt to the new conditions. 31 Some plants and animals develop superior characteristics so that they may ( A) help others of their kind get food, shelter and other things needed. ( B) survive even in
37、 extremely severe condition. ( C) become better adapted to the environments than others of their kind. ( D) result in the evolution and production of more intelligent organisms. 32 In the first paragraph, the word “environments“ could best be replaced by ( A) contexts. ( B) surroundings. ( C) neighb
38、ors. ( D) enemies. 33 It can be inferred from this passage that the feathers of a bird care colored? ( A) to frightened its enemies. ( B) to attract its enemies. ( C) to adjust its body heat. ( D) to match its environment. 34 Which of the following is not directly mentioned? ( A) A living thing may
39、adapt in its structure. ( B) An organism may adapt in its function. ( C) A living creature may adapt in its genetic makeup. ( D) A living organism may adapt in its sleeping habit. 35 The author cites the behavior of warm-blooded mammals in order to illustrate which of the following? ( A) A living th
40、ing may have the ability to create an environment of its own. ( B) A living creature may have the ability to remain still when an enemy is near. ( C) A living creature may have the ability to make food from its inorganic chemicals. ( D) A living creature may have the ability to change the color of i

42、s of raw potato starch (RPS) not only had a healthier bowel, but also decreased levels of white blood cells, such as leucocytes and lymphocytes in their blood.White blood cells are produced as a result of inflammation or disease, generally when the body is challenged. The general down-regulation of
43、leucocytes observed by the Spanish researchers suggests an overall beneficial effect, a generally more healthy body. The reduction in leucocyte levels was about 15 percent. Lower lymphocyte levels are also indicative of reduced levels of inflammation, but the observed reduction in both lymphocyte de
44、nsity and lymphocyte apoptosis is surprising. In what was the longest study of its kind, pigs were fed RPS over 14 weeks to find out the effect of starch on bowel health. “The use of :raw potato starch in this experiment is designed to simulate the effects of a diet high in resistant starch,“ said s
45、tudy leader Jose Francisco Perez at the Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona , Spain. Humans do not eat raw potatoes, but they do eat a lot of foods that contain resistant starch, such as cold boiled potatoes, legumes, grains, green bananas, pasta and cereals. About 10 percent of the starch eaten by hu
46、man is resistant starch - starch that is not digested in the small intestine and so is shunted in- to the large intestine where it ferments. Starch consumption is thought to reduce the risk of large bowel cancer and may also have an effect on irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Immunology expert Lena Oh
47、mans team previously found that the overall lymphocyte levels do not vary for IBS patients, but that lymphocytes are transferred from the peripheral blood to the gut, which support the hypothesis of IBS being at least partially an inflammatory disorder. She says the decrease in lymphocytes observed
48、by the Spanish is therefore interesting, and a diet of resistant starch may be worth trying in IBS patients. Ohman is currently at the Department of Internal Medicine, Goteborg University, Sweden. The study is published in the journal Chemistry and Industry, the magazine of the SCI. 36 What form of
49、potato is the most nutrient to the human body? ( A) Potato soup. ( B) Potato cake. ( C) Potato salad ( D) Hot boiled potato. 37 What does the reduction in leucocyte levels in the body mean? ( A) It may mean the reduced levels of inflammation. ( B) It may mean somewhere in the body is inflamed ( C) It means that the body is challenged ( D) It means that the body cannot produce leucocytes any more. 38 For what a purpose did the researchers use raw potato starch in their experiment? ( A) They want
