1、 Australia leads the world in its number of resident poisonous spiders as well as the strength
of their toxicity(毒性). However,of almost 9,800 species most are perfectly harmless and
interesting.
Spider diversity is broad and many fascinating species occur here that range from the large to
the tiny and hardly noticed, and from the dullest black to the strangely shaped.
Spiders can be roughly classified according to the strategies(策略) they use for feeding.
Spiders which appeared earlier in the evolutionary scale feed by waiting in a cave for food to
come along before grabbing it. Following them were spiders which actively wandered looking for
food and which caught it by chasing it down. The evolution of flying insects makes spiders evolve
new ways of catching food which couldn’t be chased and so the earliest air web weavers arose.
Most spiders feed on insects and other arthropods but the Whistling Spider feeds on frogs and
small birds. The Golden Orb Spider also feeds on small birds.
A spider periodically sheds(蜕皮;脱落) its skin so that it can grow. Immature stages are called
moults. Each species has a particular number of moults that it will go through before reaching its
final adult stage.
Usually, once male spiders have mated, they die shortly after. But, even in death, Redback
males often serve a purpose. The already pregnant Redback females always kill their lover and, in
most cases, also eat them. This provides them with a small reproductive advantage.
Allowing spiders to take up places around houses can be beneficial in that they catch other
annoying insects such as mosquitoes and flies.
Rest assured that while you might see some large spiders, and perhaps even some poisonous
ones, a good rule is to look and admire but don't touch any spider you find. Even those without
poison could still have a nasty bite.

get older, it can be more difficult to learn a new language,though.
Children and adults learn new languages in different ways. For children, language is their life.

of their communities.Adults,on the other hand,are already part of a language community. Learning

The production of coffee beans is a huge, profitable business, but, unfortunately, full-sun
production
is
taking
over the industry and bringing about a lot of damage. The
change in how coffee is grown from shade-grown production to full-sun production endangers the very existence of, certain animals and birds, and even disturbs the world's ecological balance.
On a local level, the damage of the forest required by full-sun fields affects the area's birds and animals. The shade of the forest trees provides a home for birds and other special(物种) that depend on the trees’ flowers and fruits. Full-sun coffee growers destroy this forest home. As a result, many special are quickly dying out.
On a more global level, the destruction of the rainforest for full-sun coffee fields also threatens(威胁)human life. Medical research often makes use of the forests' plant and animal life, and the destruction of such species could prevent researchers from finding cures for certain diseases. In addition, new coffee-growing techniques are poisoning the water locally, and eventually the world's groundwater.

When the explorers first set foot upon the continent of North America, the skies and lands
were alive with an astonishing variety of wildlife. Native Americans had taken care of these
precious natural resources wisely. Unfortunately, it took the explorers and the settlers who
followed only a few decades to decimate a large part of these resources. Millions of
waterfowl(水禽) were killed at the hands of market hunters and a handful of overly ambitious
sportsmen. Millions of acres of wetlands were dried to feed and house the ever-increasing
populations, greatly reducing waterfowl habitat(栖息地).
In 1934, with the passage of the Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp Act (Act), an increasingly
concerned nation took firm action to stop the destruction of migratory(迁徙的) waterfowl and

(2019·日照校际联合检测)At least three people are dead in the Philippines now that Typhoon Hagupit
has landed.
The typhoon, which hit the eastern Philippines over the weekend, has blown down trees and sent more
than 650-thousand people into shelters before weakening.
“There were very strong winds last night. The roof was beginning to move, and rain was getting inside
the rooms,” said a villager.
The storm hit with gusts (强风) of over 100 miles per hour. And while the storm has slowed
considerably from the super typhoon level it had last week, Hagupit still remains strong enough to
create more damage.
Christopher Perez is a local weather forecaster. He says, “We are continuing to expect bad weather and
rough ocean waves. Threats of possible flash floods and landslides (滑坡) as well as possible storm

You've heard of the fat suit and the pregnancy suit; now meet AGNES—the old person suit.
AGNES stands for “Age Gain Now Empathy(换位体验)System” and was designed by researchers at MIT's
AgeLab to let you know what it feels like—physically—to be 75 years old. “The business of old age demands new
tools,” said Joseph Coughlin, director of the AgeLab. “While focus groups and observations and surveys can help
you understand what the older consumer needs and wants, young marketers never get that Ah ha! moment of
having difficulty opening a jar, or getting in and out of a car. That's what AGNES provides. ”
Coughlin and his team carefully adjusted the suit to make the wearer just as uncomfortable as an old person
who has spent a lifetime eating poorly and not doing much exercise. Special shoes provide a feeling of imbalance,

You might think that “global warming” means nothing more than a rise in
the world's temperature. But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the
first evacuation (撤离) of an island nation. The citizens of Tuvalu will have to
leave their homeland.
During the 20th century, sea level rose 812 inches. As a result, Tuvalu has
experienced lowland flooding of salt water that has polluted the country's drinking
water.
Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official, reported to the Earth
Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms
in the past ten years. Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures
resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms.
Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign
