25、our N. fatal O. repel Large animals that inhabit the desert have evolved a number of adaptations for reducing the effects of extreme heat. One adaptation is to be light in color, and to 1 rather than absorb the suns rays. Desert mammals also depart from the normal mammalian practice of maintaining a

26、 constant body temperature. Instead of trying to keep down the body temperature deep inside the body, which would involve the expenditure of water and energy, desert mammals allow their temperatures to rise to what would normally be fever 2, and temperatures as high as 46 degrees Celsius have been m

27、easured in gazelles (瞪羚羊). Another 3of large desert animals is to tolerate the loss of body water to a point that would be 4for non-adapted animals. The camel can lose up to 30 percent of its body weight as water without harm to itself, 5human beings die after losing only 12 to 13 percent of their b

28、ody weight. An equally important adaptation is the ability to 6this water loss at one drink. Desert animals can drink prodigious volumes in a short time, and camels have been known to 7over 100 liters in a few minutes. A very dehydrated person, on the other hand, cannot drink enough water to rehydra

29、te at one 8, because the human stomach is not sufficiently big and because a too rapid dilution of the body fluids causes death from water intoxication. The tolerance of water loss is of obvious advantage in the desert, as animals do not have to remain near a water hole but can obtain food from graz

30、ing sparse and far-flung pastures. Desert-adapted mammals have the 9ability to feed normally when extremely dehydrated; it is a common experience in people that appetite is lost even 10conditions of moderate thirst.（分数：20.00）填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_填空项1:_五、READING COMPR

31、EHENSIO(总题数：10，分数：30.00)29.PART V READING COMPREHENSION_30.SECTION AIn this section there are several passages followed by ten multiple-choice questions. For each question, there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer._(l)People in the Unite

32、d States in the nineteenth century were haunted by the prospect that unprecedented change in the nations economy would bring social chaos. In the years following 1820, after several decades of relative stability, the economy entered a period of sustained and extremely rapid growth that continued to

33、the end of the nineteenth century. Accompanying that growth was a structural change that featured increasing economic diversification and a gradual shift in the nations labor force from agriculture to manufacturing and other nonagricultural pursuits. (2)Although the birth rate continued to decline f

34、rom its high level of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the population roughly doubled every generation during the rest of the nineteenth century. As the population grew, its makeup also changed. Massive waves of immigration brought new ethnic groups into the country. Geographic and soc

35、ial mobilitydownward as well as upwardtouched almost everyone. Local studies indicate that nearly three-quarters of the populationin the North and South, in the emerging cities in the Northeast and in the restless rural counties of the Westchanged their residence each decade. As a consequence, histo

36、rian David Donald has written, Social atomization affected every segment of society, and it seemed to many people that all the recognized values of orderly civilization were gradually being eroded. (3)Rapid industrialization and increased geographic mobility in the nineteenth century had special imp

37、lications for women because these changes tended to magnify social distinctions. As the roles of men and women played in society became more rigidly defined, so did the roles they played in the home. In the context of extreme competitiveness and dizzying social change, the household lost many of its

38、 earlier functions and the home came to serve as a haven of tranquility and order. As the size of families decreased, the roles of husband and wife became more clearly differentiated than ever before. In the middle class especially, men participated in the productive economy while women ruled the ho

39、me and served as the custodians of civility and culture. The intimacy of marriage that was common in earlier periods was rent, and a gulf that at times seemed unbridgeable was created between husbands and wives.（分数：6.00）(1).According to the passage, as the nineteenth century progressed, the people o

43、would be proud. Edith Cresson, Frances first woman Prime Minister, has taken office with a vow to lead the country into a battle whose outcome will be as fateful as any fought by the Maid of Orleans. Theres a world economic war going on, and France is not waging it, Cresson warned last year. Now the combative Prime Minister is preparing an offensive to create jobs at home, win markets abroad and keep France in the economic fight. We are confronted, she says, with the need to build a balanced Europe, where France is as strong as Germany. Turning to Japan, she wa
