Description: The Emperor Penguin is the world's largest and tallest penguin It is also the heaviest penguin, with some individuals recorded at nearly 100 pounds Adults have a black head, back, tail, and black wings The underparts are dingy white The sides of the neck are marked with a large golden or yellow stripe In addition, there is a varying amount of gold on the upper breast Like most penguins, the Emperor Penguin has thick, waterproof feathers that cover the entire body except for the bill and feet Emperor Penguins normally live about 20 years in the wild, though some individuals have been recorded at 40 years
of age
Diet: Crustaceans, krill, and small fish Emperor Penguins will dive to depths of 800 feet in search of food Most dives last 3-6 minutes
Predators: Sharks, Leopard Seals, Orcas Chicks are vulnerable to predation from South Polar Skuas Range: The Emperor Penguin is found throughout the Antarctic perimeter It is the only species of penguin to breed during the Antarctic winter Breeding takes place about 60 miles from the coast in the
Trang 44
Antarctic interior, where temperatures regularly drop to -40 degrees Celsius The trek from the Antarctic coastline to the breeding grounds was the inspiration for "March of the Penguins"
Nesting: Female Emperor Penguins lay a single egg in May or June After the egg has been laid, the female must immediately feed in the ocean First, the egg is carefully transported to the male, who incubates the egg under a brood patch that rests above the feet Occasionally, the transfer is unsuccessful and the egg rolls onto the ice and instantaneously freezes
The male will incubate the egg for up to 65 days! During this time, he will not eat a single meal On particularly cold days, hundreds of male penguins may gather together in a compact huddle to warm themselves in the pounding Antarctic winds In about two months, the female returns and locates her mate and chick by sound She regurgitates food stored in her stomach to feed the growing chick The male then takes his turn feeding in the ocean and returns after about a month, at which point both parents tend to the chick by regurgitating food and keeping it off the ice Once the chick is about seven weeks old, it joins other chicks in a creche to keep warm

IX Read the following text and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each question
Fleas are perfectly designed by nature to feast on anything containing blood Like a shark in the water or
a wolf in the woods, fleas are ideally equipped to do what they do, making them very difficult to defeat The bodies of these tiny parasites are extremely hardy and well-suited for their job A flea has a very hard exoskeleton, which means the body is covered by a tough, tile-like plate called a sclerite Because of these plates, fleas are almost impossible to squish The exoskeletons of fleas are also waterproof and shock resistant (chịu đựng sốc), and therefore fleas are highly resistant to the sprays and chemicals used to kill them Little spines are attached to this plate The spines lie flat against the flea‘s thin, narrow body as the flea scurries through an animal‘s fur in search of food However, if anything (like fingers or a self grooming pet) tries to pull a flea off through the hair coat, these spines will extend and stick to the fur like Velcro Fleas are some of the best jumpers in the natural world A flea can jump seven inches, or 150 times its own length, either vertically or horizontally An equivalent jump for a person would be 555 feet, the height of the Washington Monument Fleas can jump 30,000 times in a row without stopping, and they are able to accelerate through the air at an incredibly high rate—a rate which is over ten times what humans can withstand in an airplane Fleas have very long rear legs with huge thigh muscles and multiple joints When they get ready to jump, they fold their long legs up and crouch like a runner on a starting block Several of their joints contain a protein called resilin, which helps catapult fleas into the air as they jump, similar to the way a rubber band provides momentum to a slingshot Outward facing claws on the bottom of their legs grip anything they touch when they land The adult female flea mates after her first blood meal and begins producing eggs in just 1 to 2 days One flea can lay up to 50 eggs in one day and over 2,000 in her lifetime Flea eggs can be seen with the naked eye, but they are about the size of a grain of salt Shortly after being laid, the eggs begin to transform into cocoons In the cocoon state, fleas are fully developed adults, and will hatch immediately if conditions are favorable Fleas can detect warmth, movement, and carbon dioxide in exhaled breath, and these three factors stimulate them to emerge as new adults If the flea does not detect
Trang 77
appropriate conditions, it can remain dormant in the cocoon state for extended periods Under ideal conditions, the entire life cycle may only take 3 weeks, so in no time at all, pets and homes can become infested Because of these characteristics, fleas are intimidating opponents The best way to control fleas, therefore, is to take steps to prevent an infestation from ever occurring
71 The primary purpose about the physical characteristics of fleas _

B compare fleas to other members of the animal kingdom
C relate the problems that can result from a flea infestation

A Fleas extend their little spines if threatened
B Fleas have the ability to jump higher than humans
C Humans can jump higher if they consume foods containing resilin
D The resilin found in fleas is used to make rubber bands
76 According to the passage, fleas are able to jump
A with a high rate of acceleration
B with a high rate of acceleration and up and down an from side to side
C because the blood they eat contains resilin
D up and down and from side to side and because the blood they eat contains resilin

B fleas survive at a higher rate in outdoor habitats (không được đề cập)

78 The author mentions the Washington Monument in order to
A estimate the extreme distance that a flea is able to jump
B illustrate a comparison made between fleas and humans
C clarify a point made regarding fleas and acceleration
D demonstrate the superiority of fleas over humans
79 It can be inferred that fleas will emerge from eggs as adults _
A when they outgrow the cocoon
B after a period of 3 weeks
C when they sense there is access to blood
D if there is too much carbon dioxide in the cocoon
80 Using the information in the passage as a guide, it can be concluded that _
A humans do not possess the physical characteristics of the flea because they have no use for them
B humans do not pay much attention to fleas because they do not pose a serious threat
C fleas have many physical advantages, although these are outweighed by their many disadvantages
