51、n over for five years, but Europe was still recovering from its effects. Charles Kay Ogden, a linguist and writer, was running several bookshops in Cambridge. He published The Meaning of Meaning (1923), a book describing how we use language. The book received high praise, which drove Ogden to design
52、 an international language something that was much simpler than English.

In the past 60 years, the language has had some success. In some parts of East Asia, teachers are still using Ogdens word lists.However, in the main

86、ions of a wolfs howl and it appears that there may be more to discover.One theory is that wolves howl to bond better together.Its almost as if howling together helps the pack stay together.Perhaps something similar to people feeling a sense of involvement with each other when singing a song together
87、. But this theory may be wrong,explains Fred HHarrington,a professor who studies wolf behaviour.Indeed,there have been times when wolves have been seen one moment howling in a chorus,and the next,quarreling among each other.It appears that usually the lowestranking members of the pack may actually b
88、e “punished” for joining in the chorus at times.So is howling a way to strengthen a social bond or just a way to reconfirm status among its members? Why do wolves howl for sure?What is clear,however,is that howling is often used among packmates to locate each other.Hunting grounds are distant and it
89、 happens that wolves may separate from one another at times.When this happens,howling appears to be an excellent means of gathering.Howling,interestingly,is a contagious behaviour.When one wolf starts to howl,very likely others will follow.This is often seen to occur in the morning,as if wolves were
90、 doing some sort of “roll call”where wolves all howl together to report their presence.动物的嚎叫有其目的性,而人的对唱也是为了呼唤同伴,所以人们认为两者在这一方面是相同的;但专家似乎发现,狼的嚎叫不仅仅是为了呼朋引伴,因为有时也会争斗,因此,研究之后,专家发现:狼的嚎叫可能是个传染形式的行为,有时也是为了呼唤同伴。5What is the possible similarity between wolves howling together and humans singing in chorus?AThe
91、 act of calling each other. BThe sense of accomplishment.CThe act of hunting for something. DThe sense of belonging to a group.答案:D。细节判断题。从第二段的信息词“bond better together”以及“help the pack stay together”等可以确定两者的共同点与选项 D 的说法是一致的。6Why does Harrington think the“social bond”theory may be wrong?AWolves separ
92、ate from each other after howling.BWolves tend to protect their hunting grounds.CWolves sometimes have quarrels after howling together.DWolves of low rank are encouraged to join in the chorus.答案:C。细节判断题。根据第三段中提到的“and the next, quarrelling among each other”以及“it appears that.be punished for joining.”
93、都可以表明选项 C 的说法是符合原文之意的。67Researchers are sure that wolves often howl to_.Ashow their ranks Bfind their companionsCreport the missing ones Dexpress their loneliness答案:B。细节判断题。根据倒数第二段中的第一句话的信息词“locate each other”以及最后一句中的“appears to be an excellent means of gathering”都可以明确:狼的嚎叫正是为了找伴儿,故选项B 的说法是最符合原文的。8“Howling.is a contagious behaviour”(in the last paragraph)means_.Ahowling is a signal for hunting Bhowling is a way of communicationChowling often occurs in the morning Dhowling spreads from one to another答案:D。句意理解题。从最后一段中的第二句话中可以找到 contagious 一词的理解:一个随着一个的去做事情,如同选项 D 所说的那样。
