Natural selection has acted in a variety of ways in different species to enhancethe efficacy of the behaviors, known as "flight behaviors" or escape behaviors that are used by prey in fleeing predators.

Perhaps the most direct adaptation is enhanced light speed and agility.

Adaptations for speed, however, are likely to require sacrifices biter attributes, so we might expect only some species to adopt a simple fast flight strategy.

Another way of enhancing the effectiveness of flight is to move in an erratic and unpredictable way.

Many species, like ptarmigans, snipes, and various antelopes and gazelles, flee from predators in a characteristic zigzag fashion.

Rapid unexpected changes in flight direction make it difficult for a predator to track prey.

In some species, like the European hare, erratic zigzagflight might be more effective in the presenceof predators that are faster than they are and straight light more effective against predators that are slower.

One observation that supports this suggestion is the recorded tendency for slow- Page4/5-Code132152025flying black-beaded gulls, which are normally able to escape predators by means of direct flight, to show frequent changes in flight direction when they spot a peregrine falcon (peregrines are adept at capturing flying birds).A quite different way of enhancing escape by flight is to use so-called "flash"behavior.

Here, the alarmedprey flees for a short distance and then "freezes." Some predators are unexcited by immobile prey, and a startling flash of activity followed by immobility may confuse them.

"Flash" behavior is used in particularby frogs and orthopteraninsects, which make conspicuous jumps and then sit immobile.

In some species, "flash" behavior is enhanced by the display of bright body markings.

Good examples of insects with colorful markings are the red and yellow underwing moths.

At rest, both species are a cryptic brown color.

When they fly, however, brightly colored hind wings are exposed, which render the moths highly conspicuous.

Similarly, some frogs and lizards have brightly colored patches or frills that may serve a “flash" function when they move quickly.

Some species even appear to possess "flash" sounds.

The loud buzzing and clicking noises made by some grasshopperswhen they jump may serve to emphasize the movement.Question34:The word "enhance” in line 2 is closest in meaning to_______.A. encourageB.

resistC.

increaseD.

revealQuestion35:The description of the prey's movement as "zigzag" in line 10 suggests that the movement is_______.A. reliableB.

Inthe family, traditional cultural patterns confer leadership on one or both of the parents.

In other cases, such as friendship groups, one or more persons may gradually emerge as leaders, although there is no formal process of selection.

In larger groups, leaders are usually chosen formally through election or recruitment.Although leaders are often thought to be people with unusual personal ability, decades of research have failed to produce consistent evidence that there is any category of “naturalleaders.” It seems that there is no set of personal qualities that all leaders have in common; rather, virtually any person may be recognized as a leader if the person has qualities that meet the needs of that particular group.Furthermore, although it is commonly supposed that social groups have a single leader, research suggests that there are typically two different leadership roles that are held by different individuals.

Instrumental leadership is leadership that emphasizes the completion of tasks by a social group.

Group members look into instrumental leaders to “get things done.” Expressive leadership, on the other hand, is leadership that emphasizes the collectivewell-being of a social group’s member.

Expressive leader are less concerned withthe overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group members and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them.

Group members expect expressive leaders to maintain stable relationships within the group and provide supportto individual members.Instrumental leaders are likely to have a rather secondary relationshipto other group members.

They give orders and may discipline group members who inhibit attainment of the group’s goals.

Expressive leaders cultivate a more personal or primary relationship toothers in the group.

They offer sympathy when someone experiences difficulties or is subjected to discipline, are quick to lighten a serious moment with humor, and try to resolveissues that threaten to divide the Page4/5-Code20925group.

As the differences in these two roles suggest, expressive leaders generally receive more personal affection from group members; instrumental leaders, if they are successful in promoting group goals, may enjoy a mote distant respect.Question31:What does the passage mainly discuss?A.

The problems faced by leadersB.

How leadership differs in small and large groupsC.

The role of leaders in social groupsD.

How social groups determine who will lead themQuestion32:The passage mentions all of the following ways by which people can become leaders EXCEPT:_______.A. traditional cultural patternsB.

A person can best learn how to be an effective leader by studying research on leadership.D.
