9、t Charles Darwin was the father of evolutionary biology. However, what is not widely known is what sort of person he was.

17、与教学活动有关。D项提到学生的感受,符合语境,且My older students与them相呼应。本段谈到跳舞给一对年轻夫妇带来的改变,由此可推知本段开始介绍跳舞的原因。上文提到这对夫妇来上课时情绪低落,离开时却面带微笑,这说明舞蹈改变了他们的感受。F项中change their feelings是对上文的概括。由上一句中Even after all these years以及下一句I find it hard to stop!可知,Andrea Hillier一直坚持跳舞,故E项符合语境。三、阅读理解答案：1-4 DCCA解析：1.推理判断题。根据第一段中达尔文的父亲对达尔文说的话可知,父亲认为达尔文长大后会一事无成,会使达尔文自己和家庭都蒙羞。2.推理判断题。第三段第一句提到,达尔文在他的自传里说自己是个非常“调皮的”孩子。作者在下文举了几个例子,是为了证明达尔文所说的这个观点。3.词义猜测题。根据第四段前两句话可知,达尔文小时候在学校并不是出类拔萃的学生,只是一名很普通的学生,故此处应选C项(ordinary)。4.细节理解题。根据第五段第二句可知,达尔文觉得古典文化、古代史和希腊语都很枯燥。学科网（北京）股份有限公司
