feel well.She fell over,ignoring the other wild chimps.Finally,the sick chimp crawled over to a bush,picked some leaves and swallowedthem.By the next afternoon,the chimp was as good as new!Biologists(生 物 学 家)watching the chimp were surprised.Somehow,the plant hadcured the chimp!Did the chimp know the plant would make her feel better?Or was itjust a lucky accident?Many scientists dont think it has anything to do with luck.Theyre discovering thatsome animals seem to use plants to cure themselves.And these animals are leadingscientists to new plants that could cure humans!Dr.Richard Wrangham,an anthropologist(人 类 学 家)at Harvard University,agreethat animals may know something we dont know about forest plants.Wrangham got to know chimps and their diets while studying them for three yearsin Tanzania.You must know a lot about an animal feeding habits to know what itdoesnt consider food,n Wrangham explains.Every morning,he saw that most chimpsate fruit near their nests.Later on,they ate on leaves.When he noticed chimps eating the leaves of a plant they usually ignored/Wrangham thought something interesting was going on一 especially when he saw thattheyd sometimes walk for 20 minutes to find the plant.Another strange thing thatcaught his eye was how they ate the bitter leaves.They swallowed the leaves whole,explains Wrangham,noting that chimps usuallychew their food well.They seemed to rub(摩 擦)the leaves around the roofs of theirmouths.They closed their eyes,wrinkled their nose and swallowed slowly.Wrangham wondered what could be so good about something tasting so bad.Hehad a chemist analyze the leaves.He discovered that the leaves contain a red oil thatkills different viruses(病 毒).Later tests showed that the oil might even fight cancerand the aids virus!Why dont the chimps chew the leaves?Rubbing the leaves betweenthe tongue and the inside of the mouth might allow the chemicals to enter the bloodstream directly,he suggests,instead of going to the stomach,where they might getdestroyed by acids.The chimps seem to know what theyre doing.1)How can Dr.Wrangham tell which plants are medicine for chimps?A.By talking with the biologists.B.By analyzing the chimps favorite food.C.By studying the chimps feeding habits.D.By comparing other scientists discoveries.2)The author wrote the passage t o.A.present a finding B.Test a theoryC.Provide a solution D.Describe an experiment3)What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Forest plants.B.Animal doctors.C.Chimp*s diets.D.A cure for cancer.【答 案】(1)C(2)A(3)B【解 析】(1)细 节
