The most striking single fact about chimpanzees is the flexibility of their social life, the lack of any rigid form of organization. It represents about as far a departure from the baboon(狒狒) type of organization as one can find among the higher primates(靈長類動物), and serves to emphasize the great variety of primate adaptations. Chimpanzees are more human than baboons, or rather they jibe better with(與……相一致) the way we like to picture ourselves, as free-wheeling individuals who tend to be unpredictable, do not take readily to(喜歡) any form of regimentation(限制), and are frequently charming. (Charm is relatively rare among baboons.)
Two researchers have described what they found during more than eight months spent among chimpanzees in their natural habitat the forest:“We were quite surprised to observe that there is no single distinct social unit in chimpanzee society. Not only is there no ‘family’ or ‘harem’(妻妾) organization; neither is there a ‘troop’ keep permanently together. On the contrary, individuals move about at will, alone or in small groups best described as bands, which sometimes form into large aggregations. They leave their associates if they want to, and join up with new ones without conflicts.
The general practice is best described as “easy come, easy go”, although there are certain group-forming tendencies. As a rule chimpanzees move about in one of four types of band: adult males only; mothers and offspring(后裔) and occasionally a few other females; adults and adolescents of both sexes, but no mothers with young and representatives of all categories mixed together. The composition of bands may change a number of times during the course of a day as individuals wander off and groups split or combine with other groups. On the other hand, certain individuals prefer one another's company. One of the researchers observed that four males often roamed together over a four-month period, and mothers often associated with their older offspring.

When Scotsman Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876, it was a revolution in communication.Over the last two decades a new means of spoken communication has emerged: the mobile phone.
The modern mobile phone is a more complex version of the two-way radio.Traditional two-way radio was a very limited means of communication.As soon as the users moved out of range of each other's broadcast area, the signal was lost.In the 1940s, researchers began experimenting with the idea of using a number of radio masts (天線桿)located around to pick up signals from two-way radios.A caller would always be within range of one of the masts; when he or she moved too far away from one mast, the next mast would pick up the signal.(Scientists referred to each mast's reception area as being a separate "cell"; this is why in.many countries mobile phones are called "cell phones".)
The first real mobile telephone call was made in 1973 by Dr Martin Cooper.As soon as his invention was completed,, he tested it by calling another scientist to announce his success.Within a decade, mobile phones became available to the public.They have changed the way we do a lot of things.One powerful feature is the Short Message Service (SMS) or text message.It's the perfect communication method for the busy modern lifestyle.Going to be late? Send a text message! The text message has changed the way we write in English.The language construction became less strict.Traditional rules of grammar and spelling are much less important when you're sitting on the bus, hurriedly typing "Will B 15mm late-C U @ the bar.(I will be 15 minutes late to see you at the
bar.) Sorry!".
Over the last few years mobiles have become more and more advanced.We have seen the instruction of cameras, global positioning system and Internet access.
Alexander Graham Bell would be surprised if he could see how far the science of telephone has progressed in less than 150 years.If he were around today, he might say: "That’s gr8(great)! But I'm busy rite now(I am very busy right now).Will call U2nite(I will call you tonight.)."

It was once thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and/or heavy automobile traffic. Today, we know that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution, the problem is literally worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the entire eastern half of the United States and led to health warnings even in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the very climate of the entire earth may be affected by air pollution. Some scientists feel that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels(coal and oil) creating a greenhouse effect-holding in heat reflected from the earth and raising the world’s average temperature. If this view is correct and the world’s temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be under water.
Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particulate matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth’s temperature-a result that would be equally disastrous(災(zāi)難的). A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age, and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas. At present we do riot know for sure that either of these conditions will happen(though one recent government report prepared by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very likely). Perhaps, if we very lucky, the two tendencies will offset each other and the world’s temperature will stay about the same as it is now.
1.As pointed out at the beginning of the passage, people used to think that air pollution ______.
A.caused widespread damage in the countryside
B.a(chǎn)ffected the entire eastern half of the United States
C.a(chǎn)lmost brought worldwide effect
D.existed merely in urban and industrial areas
2.As far as the greenhouse effect is concerned, the author _____________.
A.shares the same view with the scientists
B.is uncertain of its occurrence
C.rejects it as being ungrounded(無根據(jù)的)
D.thinks that it will increasingly destroy the world soon
3.It can be inferred from the passage that .
A.raising the world’s temperature a little would not do much harm to life on the earth
B.lowering the world’s temperature a little would lead to agricultural disasters
C.a(chǎn)lmost no temperature variations have occurred over the past decade
D.the world’s temperature will remain stable forever
4.This passage is primarily concerned with .
A.the greenhouse effect in the world
B.the measures to adjust the climate
C.the potential effect of air pollution
D.the measures to protect the environment
