11、 morning as they walked deep into the rainforest in the Maliau Basin in Borneo, where they had set up a set of experiments to look at the ecological effects of small creatures: termites (白蟻).Termites get a bum rap. They make headlines for chewing up billions of dollars of property each year in the U

12、. S. And they are responsible for something like two percent of global carbon emissions, simply as a result of their huge populations and preference for chewing through carbonrich materials. A whole industry is aiming at killing them.But they play a key role in many natural ecosystems. Scientists ha

13、ve known for years that in tropical (熱帶的) forests, termites chew up fallen leaves and dead wood, keeping the fallen material under control and letting nutrients from the dead material back into the system to be used by other plants, insects, and animals. But they didnt know exactly how important the

14、 insects were in keeping the forest healthy and functional, so they removed termites from a particular spot in the forest and saw how it responded.As luck would have it, Hannah Griffiths and her colleagues started their experiment when the forest was hit by an extreme drought (干旱). During the non-dr

15、ought years, they saw there wasnt much difference between the normal plots and the ones where theyd removed the termites. But during the drought, the effects were marked. What they found was unexpected: in the termite-rich areas, the soil stayed slightly wet, more tree seedlings sprouted (抽芽), and t

16、he system was full of activity despite the long, hard dry spell.For Griffiths, it was only because they happened to study the drought that they could pick out the real importance of termites to the system, she points out. “And that rings alarm bells in my head,” she says, “because it makes me think,

17、 well what else dont we know? If we start damaging biological communities, we dont know what that will do.”1、Which of the following best explains “a bum rap” underlined in Paragraph 2?AUnfair blame.BWide popularity.CPublic attention.DSpecial preference.2、What have scientists learned about termites?A

18、They do serious harm to tropical rainforests.BThey contribute a lot to the ecosystem they live in.CThey act as food for other plants, insects and animals.DThey speed up the loss of nutrition in the rainforest.3、What can we infer from the finding of Griffiths experiment?ATermites help rainforests sur

19、vive climate change.BTermites prefer drought years to non-drought ones.CTermites benefit more from the forest during the drought.DTermites enjoy eating tree seedlings during the drought.4、What does Griffiths tell us in the last paragraph?ATermites are now in danger of extinction.BTermites damage bio

20、logical communities.CWe should think twice before damaging a species.DWe should study the drought to improve the system.22（8分）Professional development courses in LondonBusiness writingDelivery method: Online, VideoPrice: 49About the course: Many people get blocked when forced to put their thoughts i

But there has been a discussion about just how effective such apps can be.Among the most popular apps are Duoli

37、ngo and Busuu. A previous research found positive results on the use of them. But it mainly concentrated on studies with learners who had signed up to language courses and these apps worked as an after-class support, so the results were not always reliable. A recent study of 4,095 Busuu users has be

38、en carried out aimed to find out if users can actually learn a language with an app.Busuu provides learning materials for 12 different languages. It offers special model where some content is available for free while some content is not. We find that its users are an even mix of men and women. More

39、than half consider themselves to be at the beginner level as there is a decrease in users as their language levels go up. Most people use the app because of personal interest, or because they want to study or live abroad. Female users tend to use it less often but for longer periods of time than mal

40、e users.Getting any feedback on Busuu depends on whether your answer is correct or not. While it is helpful, this is not the sort of feedback language teachers prefer, as it does not explain why the answer is right or wrong. In spite of this, feedback in the app is very highly rated.More than 92% of

41、 respondents state that the app has met their expectations and 86% rate the app as very good or good. In fact, more than 80% of the users surveyed strongly agree that using the app has helped them improve their knowledge of the language they are learning.Besides, language learning apps also create a

42、n environment where mistakes are only known to the users, and this can address the performance anxiety that many learners suffer from when asked to speak a foreign language. So language teachers should encourage their students to use them to do the grammar work, leaving precious class time for more

46、clue about how the brain manages vast amounts of information and remembers what it needs.The researchers found that when monkeys were taught to remember computer clip art pictures, their brains reduced the level of detail by sorting the pictures into categories for recall, such as images that contai

47、ned people, buildings, flowers, and animals. The categorizing cells were found in the hippocampus, an area of the brain that processes sensory information into memory. In the experiment each monkey was shown one clip art picture, and after a delay of one to 30 seconds, picked the original out of two

48、 to six different images to get a juice reward.By recording cell activity during hundreds of these trials in which the pictures were all different, the researchers noticed that certain cells were more active when the pictures contained similar features, such as images of people but not other objects

49、. They found that different cells coded images that fit different categories. The category cells grouped images based on common features a strategy to improve memory. For example, the same cell responded to both tulips and daisies because they are both flowers.“While such categorization is a highly

50、efficient memory process, it may also have a downside,” said Deadwyler Ph.D, “ when the trials included more than one picture with people in it, instead of different images, the monkeys often confused the image with a picture of other people. So learning more about how the brain remembers could have

51、 far-reaching benefits. If we can understand in advance how the brain works when decisions are made, we can predict when the brain will make a mistake, and correct it, said Tim Pons, Ph.D, This finding about how large amounts of information are processed by the brain will help us to ultimately achie
