三、阅读理解（共6篇，共60分）

A

All living things must fight to stay alive. They have to feed on something and at the same time avoid being eaten. Therefore they have to solve this big problem of staying alive in their own way.

The danger of being eaten in the sea is great. Those plants and animals that do survive usually reproduce very fast and in great numbers.

Certain sea animals have defensive devices(装置) which help them to survive. The jelly fish have poisonous tentacles(触角) which are used for attack and defence.

Another method of survival which sea plants and animals use is disguise(伪装). They usually have the same colour as their surroundings.

In order to stay alive, animals need to have good senses. Fishes have sharp eyes. Almost all animals are sensitive to touch. Fishes judge movements in the water by means of their Lines. Fishes and other sea animals can hear well and many of them can make different types of warning sound.

51. What is the greatest problem that the living things face?

Beauty has always been regarded as something praise-worthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive(有吸引力的) people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable jobs. Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are softer on attractive defendants. But in the executive circle(决策层), beauty has become a liability.

While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were considered as having more honesty than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to lead to their success.

Attractive female executives were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones; their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck.

All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, Though, the rise of the unattractive overninght sucesses was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that of the attractive overnight successes.

Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attrafctive woman is considered to be more feminine and an attractive man is more manly than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the " manly " qualities required.

This is true even in politics. " When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently, " says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates(候选人). She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote them.

The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive ones, but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.

C. misfortune

D. trouble

Mandela was not only a political fighter who attacked with speeches. He was also a trained boxer and fought in the ring when he was young.

" Although I did not enjoy the violence of boxing, I was interested in how one moved one's body to protect oneself, how one used a strategy both to attack and retreat(撤退) , " he wrote in his autobiography.

And then in the late afternoon the sky will clear, the sun will begin to shine, and for an hour or two before darkness falls, it will be summer.
