三、阅读理解

I grew to be a tall girl but I tried to be as ordinary

第 4 页

as possible. At school, I always chose a seat in the back of

the room, and never raised my hand in class. When I was 16, I

went to my new school. And I liked the English teacher. In my

last year in high school, however, we were told that a new

English teacher, Oliver Bascom, was going to teach us.

Oliver Bascom! The girls laughed as we imagined a short

and bald〔秃头的〕man．The situation was not funny, because this

man would teach us for the whole year. Surprisingly, after we

opened the door, there in front of the blackboard, we saw a young

and handsome man!

What followed was chaos, seventeen-year-old girls flying

to get to seats in the front of the room. And I managed to get

a front and center desk.

I really wanted to make a good impression on my new

teacher, but I usually kept quiet. The day that directions were

given for our first major writing assignment, I arrived late

to class. A friend later gave me the guidelines and I thought

I understood them. I worked the whole weekend on the essay and

waited nervously for Mr. Bascom’s evaluation.

After three days, he arrived in class holding the

corrected papers. “I’ve chosen the ten best essays for class

discussion.” he said.

第 5 页

Twenty minutes later, my heart sank when he got to the

last essay, and I didn’t hear my name.

“These are all great essays,” Mr. Bascom continued.

“However, I am now going to read you the most successful of

all…” We were all surprised as I was the author of this unusual

work. A different girl walked out of the classroom that day.

I knew that I had a new set of standards to live up to and that

anything was possible in the future. Finally, I raised my head.

A recent experiment proves that bees can save time and

energy when they fly around to different flowers.

Dr Nigel Raine, from the Royal Holloway University of

London, has always been interested in finding out why animal

behave like they do. He is also interested in bees. It was not

a surprise when he and some other scientists from Queen Mary

University of London discovered that bees can quickly solve a

problem that takes computers many days.

Flowers make pollen (花粉), and when bees visit them,

they carry the pollen to other flowers. The plants need the

pollen to make seeds that will grow. Dr Raine notes that we get

a lot of our food from plants, so it is important to know how

the bees move around and take the pollen between flowers. The

scientists wanted to examine the journey that the bees take and

how they save energy when they do this. They completed the

第 9 页

experiment on the roof of Queen Mary University, using

artificial flowers and a large amount of nectar, a sweet liquid

produced by flowers. They taught one bee to visit all the

flowers in one place at the same time. When the bee got to know

the location of the flowers well, they saw how it flew around

and returned home with the nectar. After this, they changed the

locations of the flowers. The scientists thought the bee would

follow the route it knew already. This would mean that it

followed a longer route than it needed to, and so it would use

more energy. They watched the bee carefully as it travelled

between the flowers in their new location, and they made notes.

But in the experiment, the bee changed its route and flew a

shorter distance.

The problem that the bee solved is similar to a maths

puzzle called the ‘travelling salesman problem’. A salesman

who goes to different places to sell things wants to travel the

shortest distance. But he has to calculate the length of many

possible routes to know which one is the shortest. A computer

can calculate this but the experiment shows bees can do the same

calculation quickly with a tiny brain. Scientists are very

interested in how they do this. It would help us to understand

how pollen is moved around. In addition, if they find this out,
