15、an herbs that also act as stimulants(興奮劑).It hit the US market last March and has had a success that would be hard to overstate.Millions of bottles have been sold，and during the Christmas season it was displayed in the windows of the nation's largest chain of vitamin shops，G.N.C.(It is so highly sou

16、ght after that many of the stores keep it in locked counters.)Zantrex-3 is also sold at CVS，Rite Aid，Wal-Mart，and other chains，and over the telephone and on the Internet.If you type“Zantrex”into Google，more than a hundred thousand pieces of information about it will appear.At any moment，there are sc

17、ores of people sell it on eBay. Perhaps the most interesting thing about the success story of Zantrex-3，however，is that it is far from unique.There are hundreds of similar products on the market today，and they are bought by millions of Americans.And though Zantrex's producer makes some exciting sta

18、tements(“the most advanced weight control compound(化合物)period”)，so do the people who sell Stacker 2 and Anorex along with those who sell Carb Eliminator and Fat Eliminator.Almost all of these compounds suggest that they can help people lose weight and regain lost energy，and often without diet，exerci

20、 D.Anorex. 解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據第一段的“Zantrex-3 is also sold at CVS，Rite Aid， Wal-Mart，and other chains”可知，A、B、C項為連鎖店的名稱。 答案：D 3.The underlined part in the first paragraph is most likely similar in meaning to　　　　. A.it is difficult to say how successful Zantrex-3 is B.you can't overstate the succes

The belief that animals can communicate using l

24、anguage seems to come from two sources.One lies in a mistaken image of evolution(進化)as a linear process.In this model，humans are the most evolved and it makes sense to think that perhaps chimps have a slightly less evolved speaking ability than we do but that it can be pushed along with some human h

25、elp. However，that linear model of evolution is wrong.Evolution is a branching theory.Starting from some original form，it branched out into other forms，and these in turn branched out into yet more forms and so on.Although all existing species have evolved from some earlier forms，none of the existing

26、 species is more evolved than the others.All existing species have the same evolutionary status. Some efforts to teach animals language skills seem to stem from a sense of misguided totality.It is as if the more features we share with animals，the closer we feel we are to them and the better we are

27、 likely to treat them.It is undoubtedly true that the more we understand some other living thing，the more empathy(共鳴)we have for it.But the solution to that is to have empathy for all living creatures，and not try to convince ourselves that we are alike in some specific ways. 語篇解讀：本文作者重要就“動物可以用語言交流”

28、這一觀點刊登自己的見解。 5.Some chimps can　　　　. A.develop basic language abilities B.have well-developed memories C.communicate in basic ways D.understand each other in words 解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據第一段最后一句話“In fact，they can communicate，but only in basic ways.”可知，動物只能用某些最基本的方式交流。 答案：C 6.What is one of the sources

31、s 解析：推理判斷題。根據第二段第二句話“One lies in a mistaken image of evolution(進化)as a linear process.”和第四段第一句話“Some efforts to teach animals language skills seem to stem from a sense of misguided totality.”可以推斷出作者是不 贊成“動物能說話”這個觀點的。 答案：B 8.The underlined word“that”in the last paragraph refers to　　　　. A.the

32、 feature we share with other animals B.the feeling of closeness with animals C.the closeness with some other living thing D.the empathy for a particular living thing 解析：詞意理解題。根據最后一段倒數第二句話“It is undoubtedly true that the more we understand some other living thing，the more empathy(共鳴)we have for it.”可 知，“that”在這里指和某一動物產生共鳴。 答案：D
