阅读理解。    The Italian island of Sardinia recently lost its oldest person. Family members say Antonio Todde died in
his sleep early this month. Mr Todde was 112 years old. He was less than three weeks away from his 113th
birthday. Record-keeping experts say he was the world"s oldest man.
     His long life and that of other very old Sardinians are the subjects of a scientific project (项目) called
Akea. Luca Deiana of Sassari University is directing (指导) the study. He says the name Akea comes from
a traditional greeting (问候) on Sardinia. It means "health and life for 100 years." Professor Deiana and his
team started to collect information for the study in 1997. They identified (确定)) more than 220 Sardinians
who were centenarians-100 years old or older. His team needed three documents to make sure a person"s
age. They were a government (政府) birth record, a church record and a statement (声明) by a close family
member.
     The Akea study has produced two major findings. The first is Sardinia"s extremely high number of
centenarians. The island has about 135 centenarians for every one million people. In other Western countries,
the average (平均数) is about seventy-five centenarians for every one million people. The second major
finding is an unusual rate (率) of female (女性) to male (男性) centenarians. Sardinia has two women
centenarians for every male centenarian. In central Sardinia there are the same numbers of female and male
centenarians.
     Studies in other parts of the world have shown a much higher percentage (百分比) of female centenarians.
The Akea study collected information about the health and food of about 140 of the centenarians. About
ninety percent of those in the study also agreed to provide blood (血) for scientific testing. The study team
hopes to identify genetic (基因) material in the blood that can be linked to successful aging. Study leaders
say there is no single reason why people on Sardinia live so long. They believe the answer is a combination
(组合) of genetic and environmental conditions (条件). 1. Centenarians are people who are ______ years old. [     ]
A．200
B．100
C．300
D．400 2. Akea is a scientific project about ______.[     ]
A．Mr Todde"s death
B．the long life of Sardinians
C．Sassari university
D．Professor Deiana 3. What is the general idea of the third paragraph? [     ]
A．Sardinia has a large number of centenarians.
B．An unusual rate of female to male centenarians.
C．Two major findings of the Akea study.
D．Sardinia has equal numbers of female and male centenarians. 4. Why do Sardinians live so long according to the study? [     ]
A．Because the environment on Sardinia is very good.
B．Because they have special genetic material in their blood.
C．Because they have a glass of wine every day.
D．Because they enjoy special genetic and environmental conditions.

阅读理解。    Animals, including insects, do not have a language like ours. They do not talk to each other in words and
sentences. But if we watch them, we can see that they do have ways of communicating with each other.
    Can you see the rabbit"s tail which is moving up and down? When rabbits see this white tail moving up
and down, they run too. They know that there is danger. The rabbit has told them something without making
a sound. It has done this by using its body language.
   Many other animals use this kind of language. When a cobra is angry, it raises its head and makes itself
look fierce. This warns other animals. When a bee has found some food, it goes back to its home. It cannot
tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance in the air. This tells the
bees where the food is.
    Some animals say things by making sounds. A dog barks, for example, when a stranger comes near. A
cat purrs when pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning. Sometimes
we human beings speak in the same way. We make sounds like "Oh" or "Ah!" when we are frightened or
pleased or when we drop something on our toes.
    But we have something that no animals have-a large number of words that have the meanings of things,
actions, feelings or ideas. We are able to give each other all kinds of different information in words and
sentences, which no other animals can do. No other animals have so wonderful a language as we have. 1. It can be learned from the text that ______. [     ]
A. animals do have a language like that of human beings
B. all animals have their own ways of communicating with each other
C. some animals say things by words as human beings do
D. animals know how to protect themselves 2. A rabbit uses its tail to ______.[     ]
A. warn other rabbits of danger
B. tell other rabbits where food is
C. make itself look fierce
D. help itself to run fast 3. What does the underlined phrase "this kind of language" refer to? [     ]
A. Moving up and down.
B. Making no sound.
C. Body language.
D. Doing a little dance. 4. Which of the following is not true according to the passage? [     ]
A. Animals don"t have a language like ours.
B. A cobra shows his anger by body language.
C. Some animals can make sounds.
D. Man is unlucky because of their language.
