8、there are several theories. One theory claims that prehistoric birds of the Northern Hemisphere were forced south during the Ice Age. As the glaciers melted, the birds came back to their homelands, spent the summer, and then went south again as the ice advanced in winter. In time, the migration beca
9、me a habit in spite of the disappearance of glaciers.Another theory proposes that the ancestral home of all modern birds was the tropics. When the region became overpopulated, many species were crowded north. During the summer, there was plenty of food, but during the winter, scarcity forced them to
10、 return to the tropics.A more recent theory suggests a relationship between increasing daylight and the stimulation of certain glands (腺) in the birds bodies that may prepare them for migration. One scientist has been able to cause midwinter migrations by exposing birds to artificial periods of dayl
11、ight.

Their friends, with g
23、ood will, sometimes lean forward to rearrange their neckwear, touching their hair or patting their faces-things they would never presume to do, unasked, to one of their contemporaries. An equally humiliating habit is to talk about old people in front of them as if they were not there, discussing the
24、ir health.It is now universally accepted that children should be encouraged to do as much as they can for themselves in order to develop their brains and muscles, but so few people today seem to have time to allow the elderly the same means of keeping their minds and muscles active. They perform inn
25、umerable services for the old that they would be much better left to do, even with a struggle, for themselves.Convenient flats, “motherly“ visitors, or organized entertainments cannot make up for the fundamental need which must be satisfied-the need to retain to the end of life human dignity and the

29、espect of the fellows（B） they wont feel hurt or humiliated（C） they will be able to develop their brains and muscles（D）they will be able to keep their minds and muscles active25 The passage is mainly about that_.（A）improper care and concern may do more harm than good to the old（B） how to take good ca

Started by some【32】Qing o
35、fficials, the yangwupai, in the late nineteenth century, sizable state-owned enterprises developed primarily【33】enhancing Chinas national defense. Famous industrial giants of todays China such as the shipyards in Shanghai and heavy industries in cities like Wuhan, Nanjing, and Chongqing were built b
36、y the Qing or the Republic governments. Some of them later began to【34】 considerable private investment. After World War , this type of stateowned employment became very important. Labor in those enterprises consisted basically【35】two tiers: a largely market-oriented allocation of blue-collar and so
37、me white-collar workers, and a mostly state allocation of most of the white-collar workers including managerial and technical personnel. The latter was a distorted labor market that featured strong【36】considerations in allocating and managing labor. Personal and kinship connections, the so-called “p
38、etticoat influence,“ and political【37】were the norm for this type of labor allocation pattern. In a way, it was midway between a rather crude market-oriented labor allocation pattern and the centuries-old, warm, family-based traditional labor allocation pattern. It covered a very small but important
39、 portion of the Chinese labor force, and thus【38】our attention. Later, it apparently provided the historical precedent【39】state-owned enterprises to allocate their administrative and technical cadres, even its entire industrial labor force,【40】state employees. （A）growing（B） grow（C） grown（D）grew（A）re
