There’s no doubt that man is the smartest. But do you know what other animals are smart, too?

Dolphins

Dolphins are very smart. Most of the “tricks” they’re taught to do are actually behavior they would engage in on their own. They love to play, race and generally enjoy their life to the fullest. They speak a language we have yet to completely understand and like all civilized creatures, dolphins’ mothers always provide their young children with guidance and possibly, love.

Great apes

The great ape family primarily consists of gorillas, chimpanzees and orangutans. Their brain chemistry is so similar to humans’ that NASA once used chimpanzees in place of astronauts during many dangerous missions. Gorillas have been taught sign language and orangutans exist in complex familial relationships.

Elephants

Everyone has heard the phrase “an elephant never forgets”. Elephants establish long-term friendships, recognizing and remembering their friends years later. If an elephant comes upon a fallen friend, it has even been known to feel sad.

It looks like a mobile phone, but the service is much cheaper. It acts like a mobile phone, but only in your own city. Beyond the city walls, it’s useless.

“Little Smart”, also called “xiaolingtong”, has always been compared to mobile phones. But actually, it is more like one of those cordless phones(无绳电话) used around the home. The only difference is that this one reaches much further than from the bathroom to the living room. It can travel across an entire city.

Cheap costs are the main reason for the success of Little Smart. It costs 25 yuan a month for the line and about 0.1 yuan per minute to use. A mobile phone, on the other hand, can cost four or five times as much. What’s more, unlike mobile phones, there’s no fee(费) for incoming calls. So these low charges have attracted many users.

But, Little Smart is not really that smart. Users often complain about its bad voice quality. And there are not as many stations to pick up its signals as there are for mobiles. “I couldn’t receive a phone call if I was on a bus,” said Li Ping, a user in Hangzhou. “It worked fine when I stood still, but there were breaks in signal when I was moving.”

Scientists are trying to make Little Smart more user-friendly. Messaging and Internet access(接入) have been added to the service. And the latest Little Smart handset even has color screen.

1.Why is Little Smart popular in China?

2. How is the charge of Little Smart?

3. Why are users not satisfied with Little Smart?

4. The underlined word “handset” in the last paragraph means “______”.

5. What can we infer from the passage?

高一英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

Plastic is easy, convenient, cheap and long-lasting, but it does great harm to the environment.

Since plastic entered mass production, 8 billion tons have been produced – and we aren’t very good at recycling. By 2015, 6,945 tons of plastic waste had formed, with around 9 percent of it getting recycled. About 79 percent of it ends up in landfills or around the environment, including the ocean. We may end up drowning in plastic before long.

Chemists at Colorado State University have found a polymer（聚酯）that has many of the qualities of plastics – it’s light, strong, durable and heat-resistant – but that can be changed back to its original small-molecule（分子）state for complete recycling. Even after being recycled, the polymer can be turned back into its plastic-like state, and this can be done quickly and cheaply.

This new polymer has all the good qualities of plastics, yet it is relatively easy to make and to recycle. Making it requires room temperature conditions, a short reaction time to bond the monomer（单体）into polymers and only a small amount of the catalyst（催化剂）remains in the end product. It has a high molecular weight, stands up to heat and generally behaves like plastic. Recycling it requires similarly little effort. Mild lab conditions are required and so is a catalyst. Once applied, the polymers are once again monomers in a matter of minutes and can be used to create another product.

But don’t get too excited about this just yet. Scientists stressed that the polymer isn’t ready for mass products just yet. There’s still plenty of development to do, including making it more economical to produce and recycle.

1.What can we infer from the second paragraph?

A. It is impossible to recycle old plastics.

B. 79 percent of plastics has been recycled.

C. Small quantities of plastics get recycled.

D. Landfills aren’t enough to handle plastics.

2.What aspect of the new polymer is the third paragraph mainly about?

A. Its purposes.　　 B. Its qualities.

C. Its structures.　　 D. Its applications.

3.What conditions are needed when making the new polymer?

A. Mild temperature.　　 B. Cold temperature.

C. Body temperature.　　 D. Room temperature.

4.The new polymer isn’t mass-produced probably because ________.

A. it is not very cheap　　 B. it seems too light

C. it is hard to recycle　　 D. it can’t stand cold
