A

You have to praise the smoothness(顺畅)of ants on the move. No matter how many of them are going

toward a place, there's never a hold-up. A new research paper shows how ants keep traffic flowing by changing

their behavior to meet changing conditions.

For their experiments, researchers from the University of Toulouse focused on Argentine ants, animals that

often move from colony(群落)to colony depending on where the food is. Making use of Argentine ants' talent for

fast travel, the researchers built bridges connecting their colonies. The bridges were different in width from a fifth

to three-quarters of an inch. The colonies, too, were of different sizes, ranging from 400 to more than 25,000 ants.

Then the researchers sat back andmonitoredthe traffic. To their surprise, even when those narrower bridges

were full of ants, there were no "traffic accidents". "When the number of ants on the bridge increased, ants

seemed to be able to understand the situation and adjusted(调整)their speed accordingly to avoid making the

traffic flow stop. "the authors note. "Moreover, ants avoided entering a busy road and made sure that the bridge

was never too packed to cross.”

The lesson for humans? The traffic problem may lie in our inability to adjust our driving habits for the good of

the whole. Driving is fun when there are few cars on the road. Then the traffic moves very slowly. And yet, some

impatient driver still acts like he's alone on the road.

The research suggests that projects, like the ever-widening of highways, may never free us from traffic jams.

As long as we drive along with our own habits, no matter how many other people are on the road, we'll always

end up in a traffic jam. Indeed, less space may actually be a good thing. It leaves less room for individual choice

and forces us to take a page from the driving book of ants.

1. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?

A. The results of the experiments. B. The purpose of the experiments

C. The preparation of the experiments. D. The requirements of the experiments

2. What does the underlined word "monitor" in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. watch and check. B. seek and improve

C. design and plan D. discuss and practise 3. What is the best title for the text?

A. Is widening highways a solution?

B. Why don't ants need traffic lights?

C. Can we learn safe driving from ants?

D. What can ants teach us about traffic jams?

B

Dad’s comb was jade green. I heard he bought it when he married Mum, which made the comb two years

older than I was. Every night, he wouldsmile, hand me the comb and say, “Be a good girl and help Daddy clean it,

OK?”

I was more than happy to do it. At age five this mundane task brought me such joy. I would excitedly turn the

tap on, then brush the comb with a used toothbrush as hard as I could. Satisfied that I’d done a good job, I would

proudly return the comb to Dad. He would smile at me and place the comb on top of his wallet.

About two years later, Dad left his sales job and started his own wholesale business. I started primary school.

That was when things started to change. He didn’t come home as much as he used to – just a couple of times a

week. And when he did come home, it was always late and I’d already be in bed. I started to get mad. I stopped

waiting for him to come home, and stopped going downstairs to check on him.

Today, I’m no longer a kid. I’ve graduated from college and got a job. Dad’s business has got back on track.

Things are better now. Yet the uncomfortable silence between Dad and me persisted.

Two days before my birthday last year, Dad came home early. As usual, I helped him carry his bags into his

study. When I turned to leave, he said, “Hey, would you like to help me clean my comb?” I looked at him a while,

then took the comb and headed to the sink.

I passed the clean comb back to Dad. He looked at it and smiled. But this time, I noticed something different.

My dad has aged. He has wrinkles next to his eyes when he smiles, yet his smile is still as heartwarming as before.

The smile of a father who just wants a good life for his family. Dad carefully placed his comb on top of his wallet.

After so many years, he still organizes his personal items in the same meticulous way. I guess some things

never change. And for that, I’m glad.

4. What caused the uncomfortable silence between Dad and me?

A. Generation gap. B. Dad’s failure in business.

C. My ignorance of Dad. D. Dad’s absence from the family.

设l为曲线ln:xCyx在点(1,0)处的切线.

(Ⅰ)求l的方程;

(Ⅱ)证明:除切点(1,0)之外,曲线C在直线l的下方.

解:(I)2ln1lnxxyyxx,所以l的斜率11xky

所以l的方程为1yx

(II)证明:令()(1)ln(0)fxxxxx

则1(21)(1)()21xxfxxxx

()fx在(0,1)上单调递减,在(1,+∞)上单调递增,又(1)0f

(0,1)x时,()0fx,即ln1xxx

(1,)x时,()0fx,即ln1xxx

即除切点(1,0)之外,曲线C在直线l的下方

2.(13分)(2013•北京.文)已知函数2()sincosfxxxxx

(1)若曲线()yfx在点(,())afa处与直线yb相切,求a与b的值;

(2)若曲线()yfx与直线yb有两个不同交点,求b的取值范围.

2 当0x时,()0fx,故()fx单调递减.

所以当0x时,()fx取得最小值(0)1f,

故当1b时,曲线()yfx与直线yb有两个不同交点.故b的取值范围是(1,).
