This past summer I went on a journey to Canada
’
s Arctic with Students On Ice. When I left Calgary, I wondered what I would find,
what I would learn and who I would meet. On the trip to Ottawa I was wrapped in a blanket of uncertainty and excitement. But when I first
met the group of students
，
scientists and leaders. I knew that I didn
’
t have anything to worry about. The group was amazingly receptive
and I was soon part of a
big family setting out on an amazing adventure
—
an adventure of a lifetime!
When we reached the Arctic, I saw a vast land that appeared untouched and original. I was surprised by its great size and beauty
and my senses were repeatedly shocked and amazed. I stood on the Kapitan Khlebnikov and saw twelve polar bears. They walked in search
of seal holes and patiently waited for a meal. I learned that polar bears are successful only one out of every twenty hunting attempts.
However, I learned that the Arctic and its people are being threatened by pollution and global warming. I learned that pollutants
are carried by ocean and air and have a bad effect on all Arctic people. I learned
that global warming has put polar bears at risk
because a warmer climate means that they have a shorter time to hunt seals on the ice. The trip was a feast (
盛宴
) for the senses. I have
learned more about our environment and particularly how alive and interesting the Arctic is and why it is so important to take care of
it. I learned pollution ignorance of individual and global problems need to be solved. The Arctic deserves to be preserved. My trip with
Students On Ice has made me more determined to try to ensure that I do not leave harmful footprints on either Earth or its people.
24. Which is true about the polar bears according to the passage?
A. It
’
s not easy for them to catch seals.
B. They are at risk because the land is vast and untouched.
C. They prefer a little warmer climate.
D. They warmly welcomed the writer and her party.

25. How did the writer feel about the
trip according to the last paragraph?
-
5 -

A. Surprising.
B. Interesting.
C. Appealing. D. Rewarding.
26. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Global Warming and Canada
’
s Arctic
B. The Arctic Is under Severe Threat
C. My Trip to the Canadian Arctic

D. Polar Bears and Me

For many years, scientists thought that monkeys could not produce vowels (
元音
), sounds that are very important to human speech.
But
now,
researchers
report
Guinea
baboons,
monkeys
that
live
in
West
Africa,
make
five
vowellike
sounds
similar
to
those
used
by
humans.
The findings back up a recent study showing Japanese macaques (a type of monkey) are also able to make some speech sounds.








“
It perfectly confirms our own results,
”

says William Tecumseh Fitch, a biologist at the University of Vienna and the
lead author of the macaque study. The discovery
“
provides more evidence that scientists have misunderstood monkeys
’
vocal tract (
声
道
).
”







That
mistake
comes
from
a
misunderstanding
of
the
monkey
larynx
(
喉部
)
—

the
part
in
the
throat
where
voice
is
produced.
“
It
was
thought
in
order
to
make
vowels,
you
had
to
have
a
low
larynx
(voice
box),
as
humans
do,
”

says
Joel
Fagot,
a
scientist
at
Aix-Marseille
University in France and an author of the new study. Because monkey larynxes are set much higher than our own, scientists thought this
difference explained why monkeys could not produce vowels. Yet human babies with high larynxes can also pronounce vowels, a fact
that
perplexed
Fagot and his colleagues (
同事
).

To
find
out,
Fagot,
his
colleagues
and
the
study
’
s
first
author,
Louis-Jean
Boe
from
Grenoble
Alpes
University
in
France,
recorded
1,404
calls
of
15
Guinea
baboons.
Their
analysis
of
their
calls
shows
that
the
baboons
produced
at
least
five
different
sounds
that match vowels in the International Phonetic Alphabet (
国际音标
). That
’
s quite comparable with many human languages, most of which
have three to five vowels.






The scientists also checked the vocal tracts of two baboons that died of natural causes. They found the monkeys
’
tongues
have the same muscles (
肌肉
) as human tongues. This shows they can make exact movements to form each vowellike sound. It is this ability
to control the tongue, rather than the position of the larynx, that is key to producing vowellike sounds.







“
This
is
extremely
important
research,
”
says
John
Esling,
a
language
expert
at
the
University
of
Victoria
in
Canada.
27. What can we learn about the two studies mentioned in the first paragraph?

A. They both looked at baboons.

B. They both met with doubts.



C. They made the same mistakes.

D. They had similar discoveries.
28.
What does the underlined word
“
perplexed
”
in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. Confused.






B. Amazed. C. Encouraged.









D. Attracted.
29.
How do the baboons make vowellike sounds?
A. Using their high larynxes.
B. Using their low larynxes.

C. Using their lip muscles.
D. Using their tongues.
30.
What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To compare human and animal languages.
B. To report a study on animal speech.
C. To explain monkeys
’
vocal tract.
