Its called a tailed frog.Dr Rick Essner, who has been studying tailed frogs for the past few years, says, “ Ive looked at thousands of jumps and have never seen them land on their feet like other frogs.” Most of the time, tailed frogs land on their stomachs and then bring their back legs in to prepare for another jump.Essner first noticed these frogs because of the way they swim.Other frogs kick both of their back legs at the same time.But when a tailed frog swims, it pushes first with one leg and then the other.To try to find out why tailed frogs bellyflop, Essner and other scientists collected and filmed different kinds of frogs.They found that all of the frogs start their jumps the same way: they hold out their legs.The change es in the landing.Tailed frogs cant move their back legs as quickly as other frogs do.Maybe they dont need to.Tailed frogs live around water and quickly jump into the water to escape danger.Early frogs developed around watery areas and could jump quickly into the water to escape danger.Scientists think those frogs blended in with (与融合在一起) the green plants on the side of the rocky rivers, just like todays tailed frogs.“ would guess that other animals would have problems detecting them, ” explains Essner.When other animals find those early frogs, the frogs could jump into the river.They didnt need to continue hopping.Tailed frogs and other kinds of frogs went their own ways about 200 million years ago.Tailed frogs stayed by rivers.Other kinds of frogs moved to places where new hopping skills allowed them to survive.1Whats special about the detailed frog?

Its called a tailed frog.”可知，它们与其他青蛙着陆的方式不一样。故选D项。2C细节理解题。根据第四段倒数第三句“Tailed frogs cant move their back legs as quickly as other frogs do.”可知，tailed frogs的后腿不能像其他青蛙一样移动地那么快。故选C项。3D词义猜测题。根据前面的信息可知，tailed frogs和周围的植物融为了一体，所以其他的动物不会很容易发现它们。因此detect的意思为“发现”。故选D项。4A细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句“Early frogs developed around watery areas and could jump quickly into the water to escape danger.”可知，早期的青蛙是在水域生长，而且可以快速地跳入水中逃生。故选A项。B【文章大意】 本文主要介绍国王学院冬季英语训练项目的主要情况。1A推理判断题。本文主要介绍国王大学冬季英语训练项目的主要情况，包括申请日期、课程、费用等信息，最有可能出现在报纸上，故选A项。2C细节理解题。根据文章第一段第三句“Trips to museums and culture centres are also organized.”可知，该项目还会带领学生到博物馆和文化中心的参观，故选C项。3C细节理解题。根据费用一栏，由于住在朋友家，不需要旅馆费，因此总费用包括课程、体育活动和旅行，共500美元，故选C项。4B细节理解题，根据文章Steps一栏中“The letters should be written in English”以及下文“Please write to: Thompson, Sanders”可知，你只能用英语写信给Thompson，故选B项。.One possible version：Living in the cityLiving_in_the_city_has_both_advantages_and_disadvantages.It is often easier to find work in the city.The traffic there is very convenient.Besides, there are a lot of interesting things to do and places to go.You can eat in good restaurants, visit museums, watch movies and go to parks whenever you want to relax.However, the cost of living in the city is often very high.You have to find a wellpaid job, or you will not be able to afford the things you want to buy.Whats more, the city is always crowded, noisy and dirty.It is very difficult to find a good place where people can enjoy both peace and fresh air as in the countryside.
