9、 that only aboutone in 50 attempted constructions was actually finished and he realized what an incredibleopportunity he had.Mr.Blackburn started the project at the beginning of 2018 after hearing a friend inthe US was doing the same thing.It started with importing an outer shell overseas,beforepick

15、.It can be displayed around the world.C.It can change the lives of sick children.D.It will appear in the next film about Batman.C CMany people believe that there is one form of their language that is more correct thanothers.They may believe for example that British English is more correct than other
16、varieties;or that written English is more correct than spoken English.Often this beliefis supported by reference books to grammars,usage guides or dictionaries:if somethinggoes against a rule in a grammar,or if the word isnt in the dictionary,it“must bewrong”.Since the reference books are most often
17、 based on observation of the standardwritten language,the argument is really circular:these books will naturally describestandard usage,because that is what they are for;but this does not mean that there isanything wrong with other kinds of usage that are less often described.A better way of looking
18、 at things is to say that usage is“correct in its place”.Standard American English is correct in America,and formal written grammar is employedin formal writing.So this means there is no answer to the question:“What kind of Englishshould learners study?”It depends on their purposes.For many learners
19、,the best modelis one or other of the two main standard varieties:British or American English.Neitherof these is“better”than the other,and they are both used and understood worldwide.People are also worried by language change.If younger people“break”the rules thatolder people have learnt,older peopl
20、e often feel disturbed:they are concerned that youngerpeople no longer know their grammar,and that the language is going downhill.This is aneedless worry:change is natural and inevitable,it cannot be stopped,and it does notgenerally affect a languages efficiency as a communicative tool.A great deal
21、of modernEnglish grammar would have been wrong three hundred years ago,and will perhaps be wrongagain three hundred years from now.8.What can we infer from paragraph 1?A.Learners are always confused by the reference books.B.Some wrong usages can be found in the reference books.C.Nobody can challenge
22、 the authority of the reference books.D.Usages not mentioned in the reference books are not necessarily wrong.9.What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A.There is no“standard English”.B.American English is better than British English.C.A learner should master all the distinctions of different English.D.The
23、 differences between British English and American English.10.Which word can replace the underlined word“inevitable”in paragraph 3?A.Avoidable.B.Formal.C.Certain.D.Temporary.11.What is the authors attitude towards the changes of English?A.Disturbed.B.Optimistic.C.Cautious.D.Doubtful.D DAnyone who com
24、mutes(通勤)by car knows that traffic jams are an unavoidable part oflife.But humans are not alone in facing potential backups.Ants also commute between their nest and sources of food.The survival of their habitatsdepends on doing this efficiently.3When humans commute,theres a point at which cars becom
25、e dense(稠密)enough to slowdown the flow of traffic,causing jam.researchers wanted to know if ants on the move couldalso get stuck.So they regulated traffic density by constructing bridges of various widthsbetween a colony of Argentine ants and a source of food.Then they waited and watched,tryingto fi
26、nd out at what point they are going to have a traffic jam.But it appears that that never happened.They always managed to avoid traffic jam.Theflow of ants did increase at the beginning as ants started to fill the bridge and thenlevelled off at high densities.But it never slowed down or stopped,even
27、when the bridgewas nearly filled with ants.The researchers then took a closer look at how the behaviour of individual ants impactedtraffic as a whole.And they found that when ants sense overcrowding,they adjust theirspeeds and avoid entering high-density areas,which prevents jams.These behaviors may
28、 bepromoted by pheromones,chemicals that tell other ants where a trail is.The ants also manageto avoid colliding(碰撞)with each other at high densities,which could really slow themdown.Can ants help us solve our own traffic problems?Not likely.Thats because when itcomes to getting from point A to poin
29、t B as fast as possible,human drivers put their owngoals first.Individual ants have to be more cooperative in order to feed the colony.Butthe research could be useful in improving traffic flow for self-driving cars,which canbe designed to be less like selfish humans and more like ants.12.What does t
30、he underlined word“this”in paragraph 2 refer to?A.Surviving.B.Commuting.C.Finding food.D.Avoidingjams.13.How did the researchers control the traffic density of the commuting ants?A.Through closer observation.B.By regulating their numbers.C.By finding out the dense points.D.By controlling the widths
31、of their path.14.How can ants avoid traffic jam according to the research?A.They follow a special route.B.They level off at high densities.C.They never stop or slow down on the way.D.They depend on their natural chemicals to adjust their speeds.15.Which of the following can be the best title for the
