In Britain, the average young person now spends more money on games each year than on going to the

that children who spend too much time playing computer games become unsociable, bad - tempered, even

violent as a (53) But new research, (54) out in both Europe and the USA, suggests that the opposite

may be true

Indeed, playing some of the more complicated games may help people of all ages to improve certain skills

Researchers claim that this is because the games (55) the brain work harder in certain ways, like noticing sounds and movements quickly and (56) what they are The fact that people play the games repeatedly (57)

that they get a lot of practice in these skills which are therefore likely to become highly developed

Social skills may benefit, too Researchers in Chicago think that fans of first-person shooter games (58)

“Counterstrike” are better than non-players when it comes to building trust and co-operation, and that this

III Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each question (10 points)

Large animals that inhabit the desert have evolved a number of adaptations for reducing the effects of extreme heat One adaptation is to be light in color, and to reflect rather than absorb the Sun's rays Desert

mammals also depart from the normal mammalian practice of maintaining a constant body temperature Instead of

trying to keep down the body temperature deep inside the body, which would involve the expenditure of water and energy, desert mammals allow their temperatures to rise to what would normally be fever height, and temperatures

as high as 46 degrees Celsius have been measured in Grant's gazelles The overheated body then cools down during the cold desert night, and indeed the temperature may fall unusually low by dawn, as low as 34 degrees Celsius in the camel This is an advantage since the heat of the first few hours of daylight is absorbed in warming up the body, and an excessive buildup of heat does not begin until well into the day

Another strategy of large desert animals is to tolerate the loss of body water to a point that would be fatal

for non-adapted animals The camel can lose up to 30 percent of its body weight as water without harm to itself, whereas human beings die after losing only 12 to 13 percent of their body weight An equally important adaptation is the ability to replenish this water loss at one drink Desert animals can drink prodigious volumes in a short time, and camels have been known to imbibe over 100 liters in a few minutes A very dehydrated person, on the other hand, cannot drink enough water to dehydrate at one session, because the human stomach is not sufficiently big and because a too rapid dilution of the body fluids causes death from water intoxication

The tolerance of water loss is of obvious advantage in the desert, as animals do not have to remain near a water hole but can obtain food from grazing sparse and far-flung pastures Desert-adapted mammals have the further ability to feed normally when extremely dehydrated, it is a common experience in people that appetite is lost even under conditions of moderate thirst

Question 61 According to the passage, why is light coloring an advantage to large desert animals?

A It helps them hide from predators

B It does not absorb sunlight as much as dark colors

C It helps them see their young at night

D It keeps them cool at night

Question 62 The word "maintaining" in paragraph 1 is CLOSEST in meaning to

A measuring B inheriting C preserving D delaying

Question 63 When is the internal temperature of a large desert mammal lower?

A Just before sunrise B In the middle of the day

C Just after sunset D Just after drinking

Question 64 The word "tolerate" in paragraph 2 is CLOSEST in meaning to

A endure B replace C compensate D reduce

Question 65 The author uses of Grant's gazelle as an example of

A an animal with a low average temperature

B an animal that is not as well adapted as the camel

C a desert animal that can withstand high body temperatures

D a desert animal with a constant body temperature

Question 66 What causes water intoxication?

A Drinking too much water very quickly B Drinking polluted water

C Bacteria in water D Lack of water

Question 67 What does the author imply about desert-adapted mammals?

A They do not need to eat much food B They can eat large quantities quickly

C They easily lose their appetites D They can travel long distances looking for food

Question 68 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an adaptation of large desert animals?

A Variation in body temperatures B Eating while dehydrated

C Drinking water quickly D Being active at night

Question 69 Why does the author mention humans in the second paragraph?

A To show how they use camels

B To contrast them to desert mammals

C To give instructions about desert survival

D To show how they have adapted to desert life

Question 70 What is the main topic of the passage?

A Weather variations in the desert B Adaptations of desert animals

C Diseased of desert animals D Human use of desert animals
