It is not the amazing complexity of television, nor the impressive technology

35、of transport. The universal wonder we share and experience is our ability to make noise without mouths, and so transmit ideas and thoughts to each others minds. This ability comes so naturally that we tend to forget what a miracle it is. Obviously, the ability to talk is something that marks humans

36、off from animals. Of course, some animals have powers just as amazing. Birds can fly thousands of miles by observing positions of the stars in the sky in relation to the time of day and year. In Natures talent show, humans are a species of animals that have developed their own special act. If we red

37、uce it to basic terms, its an ability for communicating information to others, by varying sounds we make as we breathe out. Not that we dont have other powers of communication. Our facial expressions convey our emotions, such as anger, or joy, or disappointment. The way we hold our heads can indicat

38、e to others whether we are happy or sad. This is so-called “body language”. Bristling (直立的) fur is an unmistakable warning of attack among many animals. Similarly, the bowed head or drooping tail shows a readiness to take second place in any animal gathering. Such a means of communication is a basic

39、 mechanism that animals, including human beings, instinctively（本能地）acquire and display. If so, how did human beings acquire this amazing skills? Biologists can readily indicate that particular area of our brain where speech mechanisms function, but this doesnt tell us how that part of our bodies ori

40、ginated in our biological history. 53. According to the passage, the wonder we take for granted is . A. the amazing power of technology B. our ability to use language C. the unforgettable miracle of nature D. our ability to make noises with mouth 54. Which is the most suitable place for “Is the abil

41、ity to speak just another sort of instinct? Is the ability to speak just another sort of instinct?” A. B. C. D. 55. This passage is mainly about . A. the development of body language B. the special role humans play in nature C. the power to convey information to others D. the difference between huma

42、ns and animals C Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do. Once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it. “What is the use of a book,” thought Alice, “without pictures or

43、 conversation?” So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid), whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by

44、 her. There was nothing so VERY remarkable in that; nor did Alice think it so VERY much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to itself, “Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!” (when she thought it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time it all seeme

45、d quite natural); but when the Rabbit actually TOOK A WATCH OUT OF ITS WAISTCOAT-POCKET, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to take out of it, and burning

46、with curiosity, she ran across the field after it, and fortunately was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge（树篱）. In another moment down went Alice after it, never once considering how in the world she was to get out again. The rabbit-hole went straight on like a tunnel

47、 for some way, and then dipped suddenly down, so suddenly that Alice had not a moment to think about stopping herself before she found herself falling down a very deep well. Either the well was very deep, or she fell very slowly, for she had plenty of time as she went down to look about her and to w

48、onder what was going to happen next. First, she tried to look down and make out what she was coming to, but it was too dark to see anything; then she looked at the sides of the well, and noticed that they were filled with cupboards and book-shelves; here and there she saw maps and pictures hung upon pegs. She took down a jar from one of the shelves as she passed; it was labelled “ORANGE MARMALADE”, but to her great disappointment it was empty: she did not like to drop the jar for fear of killing somebody, so managed to pu
