Vultures, are street sweepers that feast on the rotting flesh of dead animals, which benefits us by ridding our highways and landscapes of animal bodies and the bacteria they might carry. When vultures feel threatened they vomit, and the smell of vomitedon dead bodies puts of most predators. Throwing up allows the vulture to fly away more quicklyand the vomit can hurt the aggressor39。 Opossum (負(fù)鼠)t have to fax anyone a death certificate.

This process is what causes its smell and has earned it the nickname the stink bird Millipedes are tricky. For starters they look wormy. Their name is deceptive, too: Their legs number about 750. Their major defense is to curl up into a ball. They, though, also release a harm eyes, and leave a horrible smell on their attackers. The graceful sea hare is plain in taste in the first place, so it39。 Researchers using lobsters (2f) as model predators found that the sea blocks the lobsters receptive mechanism. In other words, the sea hare gives its attacker the equivalent of a stuffy nose so they don39。being plain in taste at the discovery of a predatorB.releasing substance to make predators unable to smell itD.The vulture carries bacteria so that predators dare not get close to it.B.The hoatzin eats cow shit so that it is nicknamed as stink bird.D.vultureopossummillipedesea hare【答案】 （1）C（2）B（3）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，介紹了一些野生動(dòng)物是如何進(jìn)行自身防御的。根據(jù)故選C。根據(jù)t have to fax anyone a death certificate.

Some say it39。 SMAs are doctorpatient visits in which a group of patients receive patient education and counseling (咨詢), physical examination and medical support in a group setting. Typically SMAs are designed to have one or more doctors attend to a group of patients who share a mon illness or medical condition. In contrast to onetoone visits, SMAS provide a longer appointment timeframe as well as the opportunity for patients to have improved access to their physicians and meanwhile pick up additional information and support from peers. the SMA approach is a fundamental challenge to those fixed ideas. They need shared goals and a way of testing the innovation against agreed standards. Dr. Sumego says, The physicians may be worried about the possible chaos and efficiencies that are marketed. They also have to make the patients understand what their appointment is, and what the expectation is.To improve medical service.B. reputation.C.To meet patients39。Personal service.B.Lack of equipment.D.practiceorganizationpurchasesupport（4）What can be learned about the SMA approach in the last paragraph?

While you39。 A honeybee has about six weeks to live. Today, like most days, her task is to fly as many as three miles from home, stick her long, strawlike tongue into a hundred or so flowers. When the bee has had her fill, shell fly home. There the bee will deposit what she has got into the mouth of one of her coworkers, who will relay it to another, and so on for about 20 minutes, until the mixture is ready to be placed into the b. Then she and her 50 000 or so mates will hover in the dark all night every night, flapping their wings to create hot, breezy conditions to remove the
