British anthropologists Russell Hill and Robert B
7、arton of the University of Durham reached that conclusion by studying the outcomes of one-on-one boxing, tae kwon do, Greco-Roman-wresting, and freestyle-wrestling matches at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece. In each event Olympic staff randomly assigned red or blue clothing or body protec
8、tion to competitors. When otherwise equally matched with their opponent in fitness and skill, athletes wearing red were more likely to win the bout. “Where there was a large point differencepresumably because one contestant was far superior to the other color had no effect on the outcome,“ Barton sa
9、id, “Where there was a small point difference, the effect of color was sufficient to tip the balance.“ In equally matched bouts, the preponderance of red wins was great enough that it could not he attributed to chance, the anthropologists say. Hill and Barton found similar results in a review of the
10、 colors worn at the Euro 2004 international soccer tournament. Their report will be published in tomorrow“s issue of the journal Nature. Joanna Setchell, a primate researcher at the University of Cambridge in England, has found similar results in nature. Her work with the large African monkeys known
11、 as mandrills shows that red coloration gives males an advantage when it comes to mating. The finding that red also has an advantage in human sporting events does not surprise her, adding that “the idea of the study is very clever.“ Hill and Barton got the idea for their study out of a mutual intere
12、st in the evolution of sexual signals in primates “red seems to be the color, across species, that signals male dominance and testosterone levels,“ Barton said. For example, studies by Setchell, the Cambridge primate researcher, show that dominant male mandrills have increased red coloration in thei
13、r faces and rumps. Another study by other scientists shows that red plastic rings experimentally placed on the legs of male zebra finches increase the birds“ dominance. Barton said he and Hill speculated that there might be a similar effect in humans. And if so, it could be apparent in sporting cont
14、ests. The pair say their results indicate that sexual selection may have influenced the evolution of humans“ response to color. Setchell, the primatologist, agrees. “As Hill and Barton say, humans redden when we are angry and pale when we“re scared. These are very important signals to other individu
15、als,“ she said. The advantage of red may be intuitively known, judging from the prevalence of red uniforms in sports “though it is clearly not very widely appreciated, on a conscious level at least,“ Barton said. He adds that the finding of red“s advantage might have implications for regulations tha
16、t govern sporting attire. In the Olympic matches he surveyed for the new study, for example, it is possible some medal winners may have reached the pedestal with an unintended advantage. “That is the implication, though we cannot say that it made the difference in any one specific case,“ Barton said
17、. Meanwhile, Setchell noted tongue in cheek that a red advantage may not be limited to sports. “Going by the recent election results, red is indeed quite successful,“ she said.(分数:7.00)(1).Both Hill and Barton wanted to find out if color affects the outcome of sports matched.(分数:1.00)A.RightB.WrongC

20、:概括大意与完成句子(总题数:1,分数:8.00)Are You a Successful Leader?1. Almost nothing we do in this world is done in isolation. At work or at play, you“ll find yourself in groups, working with other people: your team at work, a meeting with colleagues, your family, a holiday with friends, a group of students worki
21、ng together, a day out walking in the mountains, a group of neighbors wanting to make changes.

22、up, you will need a skilled leader. All groups need leaders and all successful groups have good leaders. Groups without leaders or with weak leaders almost always break down. Members of a leaderless group often begin to feel dissatisfied and frustrated. Time is wasted and the tasks are not achieved.
23、 There are often arguments and tensions between people as there is nobody to keep the goals clear. Some personalities dominate and other disappears.

26、 of qualities which are necessary to be a good leader. Self-confidence is vital and being able to overcome your own fears about being a leader. Successful leaders also need to be calm and intelligent. They need to be able to work out good strategies and make sound judgments under pressure. Lastly, a
27、nd probably most importantly, good leaders need to be sensitive, sociable and be able to get on with a wide range of people.

In many places it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cell phones ar
31、e very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication-having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected. The explosions around the world in mobile phone use make some health professional worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future ma
32、ny people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serous debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health. On the other han
33、d, why do some medical studies show changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones? Signs of change in the issues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning (扫描) equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at a young age because of serious memory loss.
34、 He couldn“t remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer“s doctor didn“t agree. Wh
35、at is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about. As the discussion about th
36、eir safety continues, it appears that it“s best to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones ma
37、y have a warning label that says they are bad for your health.

41、researchers learn a lot more about honey badgers. The team employed a local wildlife expert Kitso Khama to help them locate and follow the badgers across the desert. Their main aim was to study the badgers“ movements and behavior as discreetly (谨慎地) as possible without frightening them away or causi
42、ng them to change their natural behavior. They also planned to trap a few and study them close up before releasing them in view of the animal“s reputation, this was something that even Khama was reluctant to do. “The problem with honey badgers is they are naturally curious animals, especially when t
43、hey see something new,“ he says, “That, combined with their unpredictable nature, can be a dangerous mixture. If they sense you have food, for example, they won“t be shy about coming right up to you for something to eat. They“re actually quite sociable creatures around humans, but as soon as they fe
44、el they might be in danger, they can become extremely vicious (凶恶的). Fortunately this is rare, but it does happen.“ The research confirmed many things that were already known. As expected, honey badgers ate any creatures they could catch and kill. Even poisonous snakes, feared and avoided by most ot
45、her animals, were not safe from them. The researchers were surprised, however, by the animal“s fondness for local melons, probably because of their high water content. Preciously researchers thought that the animal got all of its liquid requirements from its prey (猎物). The team also learnt that, con
46、trary to previous research findings, the badgers occasionally formed loose family groups. They were also able to confirm certain results from previous research, including the fact that female badgers never socialized with each other. Following some of the male badgers was a challenge, since they can
47、 cover large distances in a short space of time. Some hunting territories cover more than 500 square kilometers. Although they seem happy to share these territories with other males, they are occasional fights over an important food source, and male badgers can be as aggressive towards each other as
48、 they are towards other species. As the badgers became accustomed to the presence of people, it gave the team the chance to get up close to them without being the subject of the animal“s curiosity-or sudden aggression. The badgers“ eating patterns, which had been disrupted, returned to normal. It al
49、so allowed the team to observe more closely some of the other creatures that form working associations with the honey badger, as these seemed to badgers“ relaxed attitude when near humans.(分数:15.00)(1).Why did the wild life experts visit the Kalahari Desert?(分数:3.00)A.To find where honey badgers live.B.To catch some honey badgers for food.C.To observe how honey badgers behave.D.To find out why honey badgers have a bad reputation.(2).What does Kitso Khama say about honey badgers?(分数:3.00)A.They are always looking for food.B.They do not enjoy human company.C.They s
