Lost forever

Most people have heard about Didus ineptus, or the dodo, as it is more commonly known. It was the flightless, long-extinct（灭绝的）member of the dove family that lived in the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius. The name “dodo” comes from the Portuguese and means “a person who is foolish”; 31 , to call someone a “dodo” 32 their stupidity. The dodo was a foolish creature about the size of a turkey and was easily fooled by sailors who tapped on trees to 33 its attention. It would come 34 towards the sound and was easily caught and whisked on board ship to become a valuable source of fresh, but tough meat．

Another expression to appear from the 35 bird’s situation is to say that something is “as dead as a dodo”, which means long since dead, very much 36 , or deserted. Of the many animals that people have removed from the face of the earth, the dodo has probably made the greatest contribution to our 37 .

Another less well-known but 38 extinct bird is Aepyornis maximus, more commonly known as the elephant bird of Madagascar. This creature 39 a very thickset, three-metre-tall emu（鸸鹋） 40 over half a ton and is thought to be the largest bird that ever lived. It was big in every way, even its eggs were extremely large. An elephant bird egg could measure up to ninety centimetres in diameter and 41 nine liters of liquid, about 200 ordinary chicken eggs. The eggs were in fact three times larger than dinosaur eggs.

It’s hard to imagine how impressive the elephant bird must have been as it walked about proudly in its natural habitat. For thousands of years its size 42 was enough to scare the meat-eating animals. 43 it was a flightless bird, its sharp claws and powerful neck and beak ensured it could look after itself—that is, up until the Europeans arrived on Madagascar. They not only hunted elephant birds for food but began 44 their eggs as gifts. Sadly it was made 45 around I700, and the world became a much poorer place because of it

第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案, 选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

(A)

“Business is war.” The traditional language of business certainly makes it sound that way: winning the competition, getting market share, beating up suppliers, locking up customers. There are the victors and the losers.

But today in doing business, you have to listen to shareholders, work with suppliers, keep good relations-even with competitors. That doesn’t sound like war. Besides, there are few victors when business is looked upon as war.

Most businesses succeed only if others also succeed. Business is competition and cooperation as well. In other words, business is war and peace.

To bring together competition and cooperation, we turn to game theory. Game theory provides that whether one person wins or loses depends on what other people do. It is particularly effective when there are many interdependent factors and no decision can be made in isolation from other decisions.

Game theory breaks down the game into key elements :players, added values, rules, tactics（计谋）, and scope (PARTS).Every element affects the result of the game. This means that each of the five elements gives you a way to change an existing game into an entirely new one. Change one of the PARTS, and you change the whole.
