To talk face to face with their teachers.Chimps黑 猩猩will cooperate in certain ways, like gathering in war parties to protect their territory. But beyond the minimumrequirements as social beings, they have little instinct 本能to help o

22、ne another. Chimps in the wild seek food for themselves. Even chimp mothers regularly decline to share food with their children. Whoare able from a young age to gather their own food.In the laboratory, chimps don t naturally share food either. If a chimp is put in a cage where he can pull in one pla

23、te of food for himself or, with no greater effort,a platethat also provides food for a neighbor to the next cage, he will pull at random he just doesn t care whether his neighbor gets fed or not. Chimps are truly selfish.Humanchildren, on the other hand are extremely corporative. From the earliest a

24、ges, they decide to help others, to share information and to participate a achieving commongoals. The psychologist Michael Tomasello has studied this cooperativeness in a series of expensive with very young children. He finds that if babies aged 18 months see an worried adult with hands full trying

25、to open a door, almost all will immediately try to help.There are several reasons to believe that the urges to help, inform and share are not taught, but naturally possessed in young children. Oneis that these instincts appear at a very young age before most parents have started to train their child

26、ren to behave socially. Another is that the helpingbehaviors are not improved if the children are rewarded. Athird reason is that social intelligencedevelops inchildren before their general cognitive 認知的skills, at least when compared with chimps. In tests conducted by Tomasello, the humanchildren di

27、d no better than the chimps on the physical world tests but were considerably better at understanding the social world.The cure of what children s minds have and chimps don t is what Tomasello calls shared intentionality. Part of this ability is that they can infer what others know or are thinking.

28、But beyond that, even very young children want to be part of a shared purpose. They actively seek to be part of a we , a group that intends to work toward a shared goal.37. What can we learn from the experiment with chimps?A. Chimps seldom care about others interests.B. Chimps tend to provide food f

29、or their children.C. Chimps like to take in their neighbors food.D. Chimps naturally share food with each other.38. Michael Tomasello s tests on young children indicate that they.A. have the instinct to help othersB. know how to offer help to adultsC. know the world better than chimpsD. trust adults

30、 with their hands full39. The passage is mainly about.A. the helping behaviors of young childrenB. ways to train children s shared intentionalityC. cooperation as a distinctive human natureD. the development of intelligence in childrenEl Nino, a Spanish term for the Christ child , was named by South

31、 American fisherman who noticed that the global weather pattern, which happens every two to seven years, reduced the amount of fishes caught around Christmas. El Nino sees warmwater, collected over several years in the western Pacific, flow back eastwards when winds that normally blow westwards weak

32、en, or sometimes the other way round.The weather effects, both good and bad, are felt in many places. Rich countries gain more from powerful Nino, on balance, than they lose. A study found that a strong Nino in 1997-98 helped Ame rican s economy grow by $15 billion, partly because of better agricult

33、ural harvest, farmers in the Midwest gained from extra rain. The total rise in agricultural in rich countries in growth than the fall in poor ones.But in Indonesia extremely dry forests are in flames. Amulti-year drought 干旱in south-east Brazil is becoming worse. Though heavy rains brought about by E

34、l Nino may relieve the drought in California, they are likely to cause surface flooding and other disasters.The most recent powerful Nino, in 1997-98, killed around 21,000 people and caused damageworth $36 billion around the globe. But such Ninos come with months of warning, and so much is known abo

35、ut how they happen that governments can prepare. According to the Overseas Development Institute ODI, however, just 12% of disaster-relief funding in the past two decades has gone on reducing risks in advance, rather than recovery and rebuilding afterwards. This is despite evidence that a dollar spe

36、nt on risk-reduction saves at least two on reconstruction.Simple improvements to infrastructure根底設施can reducethe spread of disease. Better sewers 下水道m(xù)ake it less likely that heavy rain is followed by an outbreak of the disease of bad stomach. Stronger bridges mean villages are less likely to be left

37、 without food and medicine after floods. According to a paper in 2021 by Mr Hsiang and co-authors, civil conflict is related to El Nino s harmful effects and the poorer the country, the stronger the link. Though the relationship maynot be causal, helping divided communities to prepare for disasters

38、would at least reduce the risk that those disasters are followed by killing and wounding people.Since the poorest are least likely to makeup for their losses from disasters linked to El Nino, reducing their losses needs to be the priority.40. What can we learn about El Nino in Paragraph 1?A. It is n

39、amed after a South American fisherman.B. It takes place almost every year all over the world.C. It forces fishermen to stop catching fish around Christmas.D. It sees the changes of water flow direction in the ocean.41. What mayEl Ninos bring about to the countries affected?A. Agricultural harvests i

40、n rich countries fall.B. Droughts become more harmful than floods.C. Rich countries gains are greater than their losses.D. Poor countries suffer less from droughts economically.42. The data provided by ODI in Paragraph 4 suggest thatA. more investment should go to risk reductionB. governments of poo

41、r countries need more aidC. victims of El Nino deserve more compensationD. recovery and reconstruction should come first43. What is the author s purpose in writing the passage?A. To introduce El Nino and its origin.B. To explain the consequences of El Nino.C. To show ways of fighting against El Nino

42、.D. To urge people to prepare for El Nino.Not so long ago, most people didn t know who Shelly Ann Francis Pryce was going to become. She was just an average high school athlete. There was every indication that she was just another American teenager without much of a future.However, one person wants

43、to change this. Stephen Francis observed then eighteen-year-old Shelly Ann as a track meet and was convinced that he had seen the beginning of true greatness. Her time were not exactly impressive, but even so, he seemed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlooke

44、d when they had assessed her and found her lacking. He decided to offerShelly Ann a place in his very strict training seasons. Their cooperation quickly produced results, and a few year later at Jamaica s Olympic games in early 2021, Shelly Ann, who at that time only ranked number 70 in the world, b

45、eat Jamaica, s unchallenged queen of the sprint 短跑. Where did she come from? asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear again without signs. But Shelly Ann was to prove that she was anything

46、 but a one-hit wonder. At the Beijing Olympic she swept away any doubts about her ability to perform consistently by becoming the first Jamaican womanever to win the 100 meters Olympic gold. She did it again one year on at the World Championship in Briton, becoming world champion with a time ofthe f

47、ourth record ever.Shelly-Ann is a little woman with a big smile. She has a mental toughness that did not come about by chance. Her journey to becoming the fastest woman on earth has been anything but smooth and effortless. She grew up in one of Jamaica, s toughest inner -city communities known as Wa

48、terhouse, where she lived in a one-room apartment, sleeping four in a bed with her mother and two brothers.Waterhouse, one of the poorest communities in Jamaica, isa really violent and overpopulated place. Several of Shelly- Ann s friend s and family were caught up in the killings; one of her cousin

49、s was shot dead only a few streets away from where she lived. Sometimes her family didn t have enough to eat. She ran at the school championships barefooted because she couldn t afford shoes. He r mother Maxime, one of a family of fourteen, had been an athlete herself as a young girl but, like so ma

50、ny other girls in Waterhouse, had to stop after she had her first baby. Maxime s early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination to ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse s roundabout of poverty. Oneof the first thingsMaximeused to do with Shelly-An

51、n was taking her to the track, and she was ready to sacrifice everything.It didn t take long for Shelly -Ann to realize that sports could be her way out of Waterhouse. On a summer evening in Beijing in 2021, all those long, hard hours of work and commitment finally bore fruit. The barefoot kid who j

52、ust a few years previously had been living in poverty, surrounded by criminals and violence, had written a new chapter in the history of sports.But Shelly- Ann s victory was far greater than that. The night she won Olympic gold in Beijing, the routine murders in Waterhouse and the drug wars in the n

53、eighbouring streets stopped. The dark cloud above one of the world s toughest criminal neighbourhoods simply disappeared for a few days. I have so much fire burning for my country,Shelly said. She plans to start a foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse.

54、She hopes to inspire the Jamaicans to lay downtheir weapons. She intends to fight to makeit a woman s as well as a man s world.As Muhammad Ali puts it, Champions aren t made in gyms. Champions are madefrom something they have deep inside them. A desire, a dream, a vision. One of the things Shelly-An

55、n can be proud of is her understanding of this truth.44. Why did Stephen Francis decide to coach Shelly-Ann?A. He had a strong desire to free her family from trouble.B. He sensed a great potential in her despite her weaknesses.C. She had big problems maintaining her performance.D. She suffered a lot
