This is just one of the ways in which birds have changed their living habits because of humans’ activities. Now, a new study has found that birds that are able to change their habits in some ways are less likely to die out. These changes may include adding new food to their diet, developing new hunting(狩猎) skills, and living in a new environment. Scientists studied reports of new behaviors among different kinds of birds around the world. The study included more than 3, 800 new behaviors among 8, 600 kinds of birds. They discovered that the more new hunting skills the birds learned, the larger population they had. However, scientists also found that “evolution” can only protect birds from changes in their living place, but not from over-hunting or the danger from other animals. For example, some animals are very dangerous to some birds: snakes can eat little birds; some hungry mice may steal birds’ eggs. Above all, humans often mean the greatest danger to birds. They always take up too much space, cut down trees and even cause various kinds of pollution. This shows that, unlike what is usually believed, the ability to learn protects birds from some but not all of the rapid changes in the environment. （ ） 26. Why do birds change their living habits? A. Because they like their new habits. B. Because they want to use tools. C. Because humans ask them to do that. D. Because human activities affect them. （ ） 27. Which of the following are the changes of some birds? ①They have added new food to their diet. ②They have developed new hunting skills. ③They have learned new ways to communicate. ④They have started living in a new environment. A. ①②③ B. ①③④ C. ①②④ D. ②③④ （ ） 28. Which picture shows the result of the study in Paragraph 2? A B C D （ ） 29. What does the underlined word “evolution” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Development. B. Pollution. C. Collection. D. Movement. （ ）30. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Humans often help birds to change themselves. B. The birds’ ability can help protect them from all danger. C. The changes of birds’ living habits protect themselves in some way. D. Scientists discovered some new kinds of birds in the world.

Some students can’t sleep well on the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful. “For people who are worried about math, posture(姿势) makes a big difference, ”Erik Peper from San Francisco State University said. That’s right — sitting up straight can help you do better on math exams. Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a simple math test while sitting in a slumped-over(趴倒的) position, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight. “Slumping over is a posture that can trigger(激发) bad memories in the body and brain, so this can stop you from thinking clearly, ” Peper said. Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam did not necessarily benefit from better posture. But they did find that doing math while slumped over was more difficult, Science Daily reported. Good posture isn’t just helpful for taking math exams. Athletes, musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more positive and focus better. 46. When can’t some students sleep well? 47． What can help you do better on math exams? 48． How many students took part in the test? 49． Why does slumping over stop you from thinking clearly? 50． Who can benefit from better posture besides students?
