22、For humans, the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic were a stressful time, marked by fear, isolation(隔离), canceled plans and uncertainty. But for birds that inhabit developed areas of the Pacific Northwest, the reduction in noise due to pandemic lock downs allowed them to use a wider range of habitats in cities.
A new University of Washington study led by Olivia Sander foot reported that many birds were just as likely to be found in highly developed urban areas as they were in less-developed green spaces during the peak of the COVID-19 lock downs.
“Our findings suggest that some birds may have been able to use more spaces in cities because our human footprint was a little lighter,” said Sander foot. “For about half of the species we observed, neither land use nor canopy cover(林冠盖度)had an effect on their site use. That’s very interesting, because we had expected that whether a habitat was mostly covered in concrete or vegetation could tell us something about what birds would be there.”
In the spring of 2020, Sander foot and her colleagues invited more than 900 community scientists in the Pacific Northwest to participate in the study. The volunteers chose their own monitoring sites—mostly backyards and parks where they could safely follow public health orders—and recorded the birds they observed over a 10-minute period at least once a week.
In order to compare the volunteers’ bird observations with human activity, Sander foot and her colleagues used data from Google’s Community Mobility Reports, which track the relative amount of people moving around at various points during the pandemic. While most people spent the spring of 2020 isolated in their homes, many began venturing out again over the course of the study period.
As people returned to public spaces and human activity increased, the study volunteers recorded an increase in sightings of several bird species in their monitoring sites.
“The birds mostly were in highly developed urban areas at the height of the lock downs, because human activity wasn’t as much of a disturbance, but then returned to those vegetated areas as human activity increased again,” Sander foot said.
【1】What benefit could birds get during the pandemic lock downs?
A.Gaining more human attention.
B.Living in a lively environment.
C.Expanding their living places.
D.Returning to vegetated areas.
【2】What can we learn from Sander foot’s words in paragraph 3?
A.Birds actually dislike living in big cities.
B.It is very difficult to identify bird species.
C.The findings aren’t what he expected.
D.Human footprint hardly affects bird species.
【3】What did Sander foot and her colleagues do for their study?
A.They got community scientists involved in it.
B.They tracked human activity for a whole year.
C.They chose monitoring sites for the volunteers.
D.They only observed birds in less-developed areas.
【4】What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.The Influence of the Pandemic on Humans
B.The Impact of Human Activity on Green Spaces
C.How Birds Adapt Themselves to Uncertainty
D.Birds’ Habitat Change During the Pandemic
23、Four Books About Animals
Who Lives Here? Polar Animals by Deborah Hodge
This is a fact book about animals who live in the extreme cold. Each page talks about a different animal in a couple, easy to understand sentences that are accompanied by cute pictures. Along the side are additional facts that you can choose to share or not depending on your child’s interest. This book had some favourite animals-snowy owls and penguins!
The Magical Snow Garden by Tracey Corderoy
A little penguin named Wellington, who lives in the snow, dreams of his own flower garden. His best friend, Rosemary, helps him create his own flowers out of bits of paper, springs, gears, and other things that can be repurposed. Together, they create a beautiful garden. Sadly, a snow storm destroys the beautiful flowers. Wellington’s friends won’t let him give up, and together they rebuild the garden better than ever. Preschoolers will adore the cute illustrations in this book. And everyone can benefit from the message, “We don’t know until we try.”
Tacky the Penguin by Helen Lester
Here’s a bird who grows well in the snow-meet Tacky, the funniest penguin! He can’t sing, dive, or march the way other penguins do; Tacky does everything his own way. At first this seems to be a bad thing, but when the hunters come looking for penguins, Tacky’s odd behaviour drives them away! It turns out that being yourself is pretty great.
Here is Antarctica by Madeleine Dunphy

24、 The U.S. is still out in front of global competitors when it comes to innovation (革新), but American universities-where new ideas often spread-have reason to look over their shoulders.
That's especially true for technologies like 5G phone networks and artificial intelligence. In President Donald Trump's opinion, they're exactly the fields where the U.S. has to lead - and also the ones where Asia, especially China, is catching up. Universities from China get more patents than their U.S. peers in wireless communications, according to research firm GreyB Services. In AI, 17 of the top 20 universities and public research organizations are in China, with the Chinese Academy of Sciences topping the list, says the World Intellectual Property Organization in Geneva.
There's a special place for universities in the development of science. Universities educate future scientists and can be incubators (孵化器) for pie-in-the-sky ideas-some of which turn out to be game-changers. The list ranges from Google's search engine to DNA technology that's behind a whole industry of gene-manipulating (基因编辑) treatments.
However, government aids to universities haven't been growing for more than a decade, meaning they've declined in real terms and as a share of the economy, leading to the cost increase for universities and meanwhile somehow discouraging the teaching staff from putting all their hearts into their scientific research.
“If you look at the federal dollars, they've not really changed considerably,” says Stephen Susalka, head of AUTM, a technology transfer association whose members include 800 universities. “Other countries are catching up. We can't be satisfied with what we have achieved.”
【1】What does the underlined phrase “look over their shoulders” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.Watch out B.Take off
C.Stand up D.Hide away
【2】The author mentions 5G phone networks in Paragraph 2 to show.
A.Chinese universities have obtained more patents than other countries
B.the Chinese government provides aids to Chinese universities
C.wireless communications are changed dramatically these years
D.U.S. universities may lose their lead in some high-tech fields
【3】What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.Universities can be birthplaces of game programmers.
B.Pie-in-the-sky ideas from universities can be revolutionary.
C.Universities play an important role in science development.
D.Gene-manipulation helps to develop DNA technology.
【4】What's Stephen Susalka's attitude towards the future development of U.S universities?
A.Worried. B.Disapproving.
C.Positive. D.Unconcerned.
