24、   We all know that zebras have stripes (条纹). However, both animal experts and zebra fans all over the world haven’t known the reason for centuries. But now it appears that some researchers in California may have finally solved the age-old mystery!

In order to find the reason why zebras have stripes, a team of scientists led by Professor Tim Caro set to work. They began by comparing the thickness, location, and the stripes on seven species of zebras that live in various geographic locations. They then examined some factors that may continuously affect zebras, such as their natural enemies, the temperatures of their living places and the small insects around them like flies. To their amazement, the only factor that was linked with the stripes was the annoying flies. The zebras with the most obvious and the largest number of stripes mostly live in areas with more flies.

But that led to another question: why are zebras the only kind of animal smart enough to develop the stripes? After all, there are plenty of other animals like horses and donkeys, which are facing the same trouble. Upon closer examination of the black and white animals, the researchers noticed that unlike the others, zebras have very short coats of hair, making them particularly easy to be bitten (咬) by the flies!

While Tim says that this mystery is finally solved, it has given rise to a new one. Why are these fearless flies that have no fears of attacking animals that are thousands of times bigger, afraid of black and white stripes? If you have any answer, be sure to add it to the comments below. It may help the professor with his new research!

【3】What will Tim study next?

A.Why flies like attacking zebras.

B.Why flies don’t attack horses or donkeys.

C.Why flies like attacking bigger animals.

D.Why flies are frightened of black and white stripes.

【4】What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.The living habits of zebras. B.How zebras deal with flies.

26、   It has been described as art by some people, but to others it’s an ugly part of modern life.

What is it? Graffiti (涂鸦), of course. Look around cities in the UK today and you can see graffiti on buildings, walls, doors and even on buses or trains that have stayed in one place for too long. But where modern technology creates a problem, it also finds a way to deal with it. Last week, The Weekend West was shown around the factory of a small but successful company (公司), Hubdean.

Hubdean’s achievement is some special paints which are graffiti-resistant. How do they work? It couldn’t be simpler. Take any graffiti-covered surface. First, a treatment called Agproclear is used. Then, using a very hot pressure jet (压力喷嘴), this treatment is taken away and the graffiti disappears at the same time. Now you have a clean wall. But before this clean wall can be painted on by graffiti lovers, a new product, Agproshield, is used. This paint has a special surface which gives it two important advantages. Firstly, spray paint (喷雾颜料) won’t stick to the surface very well, and secondly, the whole surface can be cleaned very easily, just using water. Once the surface is painted, no specialist equipment (设备) is needed to keep the area clean and graffiti-free.

Not surprisingly, Hubdean’s products are used by both local governments and private companies all over the UK, and now orders are being received from around the world. This brings the company a problem, however. Can they increase production to satisfy the needs? Of course, they can build a second factory or work with a large international company to make their products. The future is looking good for Hubdean!

【1】What does the underlined word “graffiti-resistant” in Paragraph 2 mean?

A.Painting graffiti. B.Keeping graffiti. C.Preventing graffiti. D.Changing graffiti.

【2】When should Agproshield be used?

A.Before Agproclear is used. B.When the wall is still clean.

C.When Agproclear doesn’t work. D.After graffiti is painted on the wall.

【3】What can we learn about Hubdean?

A.There is a good market for its products.

B.A large company is going to buy its products.

C.It is developing more new and better products.

D.Most of its business comes from private companies.

【4】What would be the best title for the text?

A.Is Hubdean successful? B.Is graffiti art? Of course not!

C.Hubdean a high-tech company? D.Graffiti a problem? Just wash it off!
