27、There’s physics to having your ducklings in a row. By paddling in an orderly line behind their mother, baby ducks can take a ride on the waves in her wake. That saves the ducklings’ energy, researchers report in the December 10th issue of the Journal of Fluid Mechanics.
Earlier measurements of duckling metabolism showed that the youngsters saved energy when swimming behind a leader, but the physics behind that savings wasn’t known. Using computer simulations of waterfowl waves, Zhiming Yuan, an expert of the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, and his colleagues found that a duckling cruising in just the right spot behind its mother gets an assist.
When a duckling swims on its own, it kicks up waves in its wake, using up some energy that would otherwise send it moving ahead. That wave drag resists the duckling’s move. But ducklings in the sweet spot experience 158 percent less wave drag than when swimming alone, the researchers calculated, meaning the duckling gets a push instead.
Like good partners, the ducklings share with one another. Each duckling in the line passes along waves to those behind, so all the baby ducks get a free ride.
But to get the benefit, the youngsters need to keep up with their mom. If they fall out of position, swimming gets harder. That’s fair punishment for ducklings that dawdle.
【1】What can we learn from paragraph 1?
A.Baby ducks learn physics from their mother duck.
B.Ducklings can swim more easily after mom orderly.
C.Ducklings can swim behind their mother without efforts.
D.The waves made by mother duck prevent ducklings’ swim.
【2】How did researchers conclude about energy-saving swimming?
A.By watching them carefully.
B.By measuring them correctly.
C.By studying certain examples.
D.By using computer technology.
【3】What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.How researchers conducted the experiment.
B.Comparing two ways of baby ducks’ swimming.
C.Why ducklings’ swimming in a row saves energy.
D.Explaining the rules of baby ducks’ movement in water.
【4】What does the underlined part “the benefit” in paragraph 5 refer to?
A.A free ride.
B.The hard swim.
C.A fair punishment.
D.The right position.
28、In a recent survey of more than 1.300 students, 96% said they feel worried about exams【1】There is no doubt that anyone wants to get high marks in exams, so students should learn to deal with exams as calmly and effectively as possible.
Develop a plan.
【2】However most of the students don't plan how they'll be prepared. They just tell themselves they'll study as much as possible—then they'll "hope for the best". This isn't a wise way. Preparing for an exam is like taking on an important project. It's important to outline a plan for how you'll get ready for an exam.
Change the sleep time early.
Many exams are held in the early morning- a time when students don't usually feel very awake. If you'll be taking a morning exam, start sleeping earlier at least one week before the exam so that your body will have time to adjust(适应).【3】Besides, it's also a good idea to get eight hours of sleep each night.
【4】
It's common for-students to spend the 10 minutes before an exam doing some last-minute studying. This may provide some comfort, but overall it does more harm than good. The 10 minutes before an exam will make no difference. If you study during this time, you'll become more stressed and worried【5】
A.Study until the last minute
B.Don't do any last-minute studying
C.This high percentage isn't surprising.
D.This will have a bad influence on your performance
E.This will help you become more confident in the exams.
F.If not, your mind won't be in a good state to take the exam
G.It is of great importance for students to make a proper plan before an exam.
