Then the team switched from reallife objects to Tshirts printed with X or O symbols. Still, the pigs walked only toward the Oshirted people: they had transferred their knowledge to a twodimensional format, a not inconsiderable feat of reasoning. As Annie Potts of Canterbury University has noted, chickens distinguish among one hundred chicken faces and recognize familiar individuals even after months of separation. When given problems to solve, they reason: hens trained to pick colored buttons sometimes choose to give up an immediate food reward for a slightly later (and better) one. Healthy hens may aid friends, and mourn when those friend die.故選D。s dark encroachment (入侵).可知,是Clyde Tombaugh用他簡(jiǎn)陋的儀器發(fā)現(xiàn)了冥王星,成了第一個(gè)發(fā)現(xiàn)行星的美國(guó)人,并且給黑暗的大蕭條時(shí)期帶來(lái)了一線光明。文章主要講述的是冥王星的被發(fā)現(xiàn)和被從太陽(yáng)系去除的經(jīng)過(guò),更表現(xiàn)了它的神秘和魅力。Pluto is not a planet in the solar system, but it is more than a planet.【答案】 (1)A(2)C(3)D(4)D 【解析】【分析】文章講述了小時(shí)候作者對(duì)冥王星的認(rèn)識(shí),以及冥王星被發(fā)現(xiàn)和被從太陽(yáng)系去除的經(jīng)過(guò),更表現(xiàn)了冥王星的神秘和魅力,這使作者認(rèn)識(shí)到宇宙是無(wú)窮的,也是不斷變化的,需要我們不停去探索。s telescopes used for searching stars were very simple.(4)What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph most probably mean?A.Pluto was the only planet that was discovered by Clyde Tombaugh.C.Pluto39。Because it was discovered by an American.D.t the limit at all.
