(10 points)Traveling in Vietnam was like visiting a mysterious neighbor. You have lived next door to each other for years but know very 1 about what happened on 2 side of the fence.I travelled there last August. A(n) 3 180-kilometre trip from a Chinese border town to Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, 4 an adventurous eight hours. Thats 5 the country still doesnt have a modern expressway system. The major passage going through the country is only a two-way road. 6 , many areas are mountainous.Vietnamese drivers are 7 and fearless. They compete with each other at full speeds no matter how scared the 8 feel. When the bus shook us violently for the hundredth time, the driver made a 9 to make us feel better. “See, this is just a(n) 10 Vietnamese people give you, a free massage(按摩) service.”It was midnight 11 I reached that hotel. Switching on the television, I was 12 by something: All the 13 in the TV plays spoke in the same voice. 14 , modern Korean plays and historical Chinese plays are 15 with the Vietnamese. But it seemed they didnt have enough 16 to dub(为配音)all these programs. So, the same boring woman appears 17 every TV play to speak for the roles. The next morning when I opened the window, I found myself in a huge “ 18 ”. The buildings in the streets were 19 in all kinds of colors you can imagine. Vietnamese are allowed to 20 their houses as they like. Each one was different. The large number of colors brought the city alive.1、Alittle Bmuch Ca lot Dfew2、Aanother Bother Ceither Dthe other3、Along Bsimple Cpleasant Deasy4、Atook Bspent Cpaid Ddevoted5、Awhy Bwhen Cbecause Dwhere6、ATherefore BHowever CAlso DOtherwise来源7、Awonderful Bimpatient Ccareful Dhelpless8、Apassengers Bpolicemen Cdrivers Dpassers-by9、Astory Bjoke Cpromise Dstatement10、Agift Bpleasure Ccompetition Dsurprise11、Athat Buntil Cwhen Dwhile12、Aexcited Bembarrassed Cdisappointed Damazed13、Aactresses Bactors Ccharacters Dchannels14、AAt present BTo be honest CSure enough DOf course15、Asatisfied Breceived Ccontent Dpopular16、Atime Bbudget Cpeople Dspace17、Abeside Bunder Cover Dbehind18、Afilm Bgarden Cbook Dcup19、Aput Bset Cdressed Dfilled20、Arent Bmake Clive DpaintSection II Reading ComprehensionPart ADirections:Read the following four texts.

A new study tested the birds outside this naturally occurring behaviour, which may have evolved（进化）specifically because it gives crows a survival advantage. Some crow species are known to naturally use tools to recover food. So the researchers tested whether the birds could store and recover a tool so they could get it at their food after a gap of 17 hourssomething we wouldnt expect them to do naturally. But they were able to instantly select the tool out of a number of unnecessary items.In another experiment, the researchers taught crows to select a token （礼品券）from a number of items so that they could then exchange for food. Again, the birds then showed that they could plan for the future using this new behaviour. This is different from all of the previous studies in future planning, which have focused on naturally occurring behaviour. For example, we know that chimpanzees select, transport and save appropriate tools for future needs.These studies have shown that animals can plan for the futurebut they left an important question open for debate. Are animals only able to plan to use abilities that have evolved to give them a specific advantage, or can they flexibly and intelligently apply planning behaviour across various actions? Most critics would say the former, as the animals were tested in naturally occurring behaviours.But the new research provides the first evidence that animal species can plan for the future using behaviour that doesnt typically occur in nature. This supports the view that at least some recognitive abilities in animals dont evolve just in response to specific problems. Instead, it suggests that animals can apply these behaviours flexibly across problems in a similar way to humans. We need to investigate how flexible behaviour evolved. Then we might be able to see how crows ability to plan for the future fits in with their broader cognitive powers.1、Whats the new finding about some crows according to Paragraph 1?AThey c
