课时提能练(六)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2019·昆明质量检测)Bats are the only mammals(哺乳动物) that can fly a long distance,but they have another ability.Many bats live a very long time for an animal of their size.European researchers are studying bats to understand why they live so long.They hope to make discoveries aimed at fighting the aging process in human beings.Last week,the group of scientists said they had discovered important biological qualities in some bat species.The group studied bat chromosomes(染色体).The scientists were most interested in structures connected to the ends of the chromosomes.They are called telomeres(端粒),which shorten each time a cell divides.The scientists believe this shortening process causes cells to break down.They say this is what causes aging.The European researchers studied 493 bats from four bat species.The group used information that had been gathered over more than 60 years.Of these animals,the greater mouse-eared bat generally lived an average of 37 years.The scientists said it had telomeres that did not shorten with age.Another Myotis hold the record for oldest age,reaching 41 years.The scientists' findings suggest that these bats' cells have the ability to keep and repair their telomeres.This,they said,helps guard against the aging process.Based on its body size,a bat like the greater mouse-eared bat would be expected to live four years.But,these mammals have been found to live nearly 10 times longer than that.The scientists found that only 19 species of mammals live longer than humans when their body size is considered.18 of these are bats.The only exception is an unusual African rat.【语篇解读】该文是一篇研究性实验报告。

课时提能练(六)Ⅰ.阅读理解(2019·内蒙古四校联考)On a hot evening in September,the Highland High School team was pronouncing to win its first game of the season.“I was really excited,”said Highlanders linebacker Ryan Ferrini.“This was the game when it finally came together.”With several seconds left in the fourth quarter and the Tompkins High School team up 29:28,all the Highlanders had to do was go one yard for a touchdown to seize a dramatic comefrombehind victory.On the previous play,after the Highlanders had driven the ball deep into the Tompkins' territory(防守区),quarterback Will Gentry had connected with receiver Austin Brauweiler at the threeyard line.As Brauweiler turned upfield,a Tompkins' defender delivered a hit,knocking them both to the ground at the oneyard line.“There was a huge force,as if a truck had hit me,”said Brauweiler,who suffered from the collision(撞击).But it was the Tompkins' player who got the worst of it.He lay still on the ground and a doctor had been called.That's when the Tompkins' coach walked across the field and told Highlanders' coach Colschen that his players were too upset to finish the game and they would lose the game.“In life,the wellbeing of others is what's important,not the scoreboard,”said Colschen.He gathered his Highlanders and told them it was time to support their grieving(悲伤的) competitors.They agreed.After the injured player was airlifted to a hospital,the two teams took the field again.The Highland team's teammates took a knee and didn't start any action,only waiting for the game clock to strike zero.Game over.“What my players did was amazing,”said Colschen.“I was surprised and encouraged that they were thinking not about themselves but about others.”【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了在一场比赛中发生了双方队员相撞事件后,其中一方的队员为了尊重对方队员,将最后的比赛时间耗尽的故事。
