In the animal kingdom, mimics are not rare. Stick insects pretend to be twigs. Hawk moth caterpillars resemble poisonous snakes. The examples, though, are visual. Auditory mimicry is rarer. Danilo Russo of the University of Naples Federico II thinks he has found a novel case of it, as he describes in Current Biology. Some bats, he believes, mimic angry bees in order to scare away owls that might otherwise eat them.
mimic=
simulate=
imitate
twig=small branch
resemble=
be like
though=
however=nevertheless
auditory=
about sound
novel
adj.新颖的;奇特的
32. What was Dr. Russo’s assumption of the study?
A. Bats imitate the voice of angry bees to frighten away enemies.
B. The buzzing of bats is similar to the sound of some bees.
C. Auditory mimicry is rather common in the animal kingdom.
D. Only some bats have the capacity of auditory mimicry.
√
Dr. Russo first noticed bat buzzing a few years ago. The noise struck him as similar to the sound of some bees. He wondered whether bat buzzing was a form of mimicry which helped to scare off would-be predators.
To test this idea, he and his colleagues first recorded the buzzing that captured bats made. Then, with protective clothing, they began the more dangerous task of recording the buzzing made by different bees. Computer analysis revealed that bees’ and bats’ buzzing were, indeed, similar.
33. How did Dr. Russo test his idea?
A. By consulting experts in this field. B. By referring to other scholars’ analysis.
C. By collecting computer data.
D. By conducting series of scientific experiments.

Then the researchers recruited several owls. They put the owls, one at a time, in an enclosure with branches for them to stay on, and two boxes with holes in them. They placed a loudspeaker alongside one of the boxes and, after the birds had settled in, broadcast through it five seconds of uninterrupted bat buzzing and a similar amount of insect buzzing three times in a row for each noise. As a control, they broadcast in like manner several non-buzzing sounds made by bats.
然后研究人员招募了几只猫头鹰。他们把猫头鹰,一次一只,放在一个有树枝的围栏里,让它们呆在上面,还有两个有洞的盒子。他们在其中一个盒子旁边放了一个扬声器,在鸟儿安顿下来后,通过它播放五秒钟不间断的蝙蝠嗡嗡声和类似数量的昆虫嗡嗡声,每一种声音连续播放三次。作为对照,他们以类似的方式播放蝙蝠发出的几种非嗡嗡声。
During the broadcasts and for five minutes thereafter, they videoed the owls. After analysis, the results were unequivocal. When they heard both the bat buzzing and the bee buzzing, the owls moved as far from the speakers as they could. In contrast, when the non-buzzing bat sounds were played, they crept closer.
34. What does the underlined word “unequivocal” in paragraph 5 possibly mean?
A. Disappointing. B. Controversial. C. Definite. D. Uncertain.
creep

√
Dr. Russo believes this is the first reported case of a mammal using auditory mimicry to scare away a predator. They strongly suspect, however, that it is not unique. Anecdotes suggest several birds also make buzzing noises when their nests are disturbed. And with the result of the experiment, he therefore predicts that auditory mimicry is far more widespread than currently realized.
35. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. A New Trick to Scare Away Owls
B. Animal Mimicry: Buzz off
C. A Self-protection Behavior among Animals
D. Bats: No More Victim to Owls
