【原文】M: Hello, everyone. Welcome back to Story Time, and this week we’re going to talk about Margaret Fuller.
Margaret Fuller was born in 1810 in America. Up to the age of nine, her education was at home, with her father. Margaret was an excellent student. In fact, by the age of six, she was translating Latin poetry into English. By the age of ten, she was at school. And eventually, she became a teacher.
So, why did she become so well known? Well, she had very strong opinions about the role of women and particularly about what jobs they could do. Margaret believed that a woman could do any job that a man could do.
Later, she became a journalist. She worked for the New York Tribune and became its first female editor. She also wrote reviews for it, as she was famous for having strong opinions about literature. Some of the reviews she wrote were very sharp. As a result, she was not always popular with novelists and poets of her time. Besides, she was interested in many different topics. For example, she wanted to change people’s attitudes to Native Americans and African Americans. She certainly tried to make the world a better place.

A
There’s no better way to better understand a foreign culture than through one of its festivals. Here are some interesting festivals in the world.
La Tomatina (Spain)
Last Wednesday of August
This “largest food fight in the world” is believed to have been started with a tomato — but it certainly didn’t end with just one. Now, more than 50,000 people pack the streets of Buñfol, Spain, armed with cheap tomatoes, ready to throw them at friends and strangers alike. Gloves and safety glasses are suggested as the battle can get quite heated, even though it lasts just an hour. While past years allowed anyone and everyone to take part, the large number of attendees pushed town officials to require tickets.
National Beer Day (Iceland)
March 1
It’s no secret that Icelanders are fond of partying. After all, when there are days when the sun won’t stop shining, it makes sense to throw back a few to celebrate. However, it wasn’t that long ago (1989) that Iceland was still under a form of prohibition and unable to sell beer. When the laws were passed to make beer legal on March 1, 1989, Icelanders were excited and have since celebrated National Beer Day each March 1 with pub dances and other celebrations that last until the early hours of the morning. Beer has since become the most popular drink in the country.
Monkey Banquet (盛宴) (Thailand)
Last Sunday in November
If you’ve ever come in close contact with monkeys, you know that they are often a bit troublesome, taking a sandwich from your hand without warning or breaking into your hotel minibar if you forget to lock the doors (true story). However, in 1989, in Lopburi, Thailand, a local innkeeper decided to feed the monkeys a banquet as they’re also believed to bring good luck. Thus, a tradition was born and the banquet has grown each year. As the monkeys run into the banquet, they soon get a bit excited and start dancing on the tables and throwing food. For visitors, it’s a highly enjoyable sight-just be sure to wear clothes that you don’t mind being decorated by the monkeys.
21. Why did Icelanders start National Beer Day?
A. To enjoy the sunshine.
B. To remember the period.
C. To appreciate beer as the most popular drink.
D. To celebrate the legality of beer selling.
22. What’s the purpose of the Monkey Banquet held at first?
A. To attract visitors. B. To feed monkeys.
C. To gain good luck. D. To enjoy a joyful sight.
23. If a tourist plans to experience a festival in summer, which one is suitable?
A. La Tomatina B. National Beer Day
C. The Monkey Banquet D. The Lantern Festival
【答案】21. D 22. C 23. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了世界上三个有趣的节日。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据National Beer Day (Iceland)部分中“When the laws were passed to make beer legal on March 1, 1989, Icelanders were excited and have since celebrated National Beer Day each March 1 with pub dances and other celebrations that last until the early hours of the morning.(1989年3月1日,当法律通过使啤酒合法化时,冰岛人很兴奋,此后每年3月1日都会以酒吧舞会和其他庆祝活动来庆祝全国啤酒日,庆祝活动会持续到凌晨)”可知,冰岛人开始庆祝全国啤酒日是为了庆祝啤酒销售合法化。故选D项。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据Monkey Banquet (盛宴) (Thailand)部分中“However, in 1989, in Lopburi, Thailand, a local innkeeper decided to feed the monkeys a banquet as they’re also believed to bring good luck.(然而,1989年,在泰国华富里,一位当地客栈老板决定为猴子举办一场盛宴,因为人们相信猴子也会带来好运)”可知,最初举办猴子盛宴的目的是为了获得好运。故选C项。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据La Tomatina (Spain)部分中“Last Wednesday of August(八月的最后一个星期三)”可知,番茄大战在八月举行,属于夏季。所以如果游客计划在夏季体验一个节日,适合选择番茄大战(La Tomatina)。故选A项。
B
Moving house is a big and emotional business. So when a whole group of Asian elephants made a historic move from Melbourne to Werribee this week, they shared a moving reunion as they explored their new world-class habitat for the first time. The elephants trumpeted (吼叫) as they appeared from their air-conditioned trucks to take their first steps in their new home. They also touched each other and moved their ears, showing excitement and a strong social connection. The elephants wasted no time getting acquainted with their new playgrounds.
Werribee Open Range Zoo zookeeper Lucy Truelson said it was inspiring to see the elephants explore their new habitat, following years of careful planning to reach this groundbreaking moment. “They are celebrating and really enjoying their new surroundings,” Ms Truelson said. “They’re playing, exploring the landscape and they’ve slept beautifully. All these things show us that they’re happy. This is everything we hoped for.”
The elephant path is designed to put animal benefit first with an unmatched visitor experience. There are six large habitats with playgrounds. The area is the same size as Melbourne Zoo’s full footprint. It also includes two big pools that together hold nearly two million liters of water and offer about 1,300 square meters of swimming space. Two specially designed elephant barns include a sleeping area filled with 3,300 tonnes of sand. Two overpasses will allow the elephants to cross over visitor walking paths, allowing the elephants to move between habitats.
With the elephants’ benefit the top thing for keepers, Ms Truelson was sure that visitors will have to wait a few more weeks. Werribee has never before had so many elephants in its 41-year history and making it happen was a huge job including a 21-person keeper team.
24. How does Lucy Truelson feel about the move?
A. Concerned. B. Disappointed. C. Satisfied. D. Confused.
25. What does the underlined word “acquainted” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Familiar. B. Addicted. C. Affected. D. Content.
26. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about these elephants?
A. Means of transporting them. B. Advantages of their new home.
C. Challenges faced by them. D. Their experience with visitors.
27. Why do visitors have to wait?
A. The elephants need to be trained.
B. The elephants fear to see visitors.
C. The zoo will give visitors a big surprise.
D. The zoo has to make full preparations.
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了亚洲象群迁居沃瑞比动物园的情况。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第二段中““They are celebrating and really enjoying their new surroundings,” Ms Truelson said. “They’re playing, exploring the landscape and they’ve slept beautifully. All these things show us that they’re happy. This is everything we hoped for.” (“它们正在庆祝,并且非常享受新环境,”Truelson女士说。“它们在玩耍,探索这片土地,而且睡得很好。所有这些都表明它们很开心。这正是我们所期望的”)”可知,Lucy Truelson对大象们的搬家感到很满意。故选C。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。由文章第一段“Moving house is a big and emotional business. So when a whole group of Asian elephants made a historic move from Melbourne to Werribee this week, they shared a moving reunion as they explored their new world-class habitat for the first time. The elephants trumpeted (吼叫) as they appeared from their air-conditioned trucks to take their first steps in their new home. They also touched each other and moved their ears, showing excitement and a strong social connection. The elephants wasted no time getting acquainted with their new playgrounds. (搬家是一件既重大又充满情感的事情。因此,当本周一整群亚洲象从墨尔本历史性地迁徙到维里比时,它们首次探索自己崭新的世界级栖息地,共同经历了一场感人的重逢。大象们从装有空调的卡车里走出来,在新家迈出第一步时,发出了响亮的吼叫声。它们还相互触碰,扇动耳朵,展现出兴奋之情和强烈的社交联系。大象们迫不及待地acquainted起它们的新乐园。)”以及第二段中““They are celebrating and really enjoying their new surroundings,” Ms Truelson said. (“它们正在庆祝,并且非常享受新环境,”Truelson女士说。)”可知,大象们很高兴来到新环境,立刻开始熟悉它们的新乐园,acquainted意为“熟悉的”,与Familiar“熟悉的”意思相符。故选A。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。由文章第三段中“The elephant path is designed to put animal benefit first with an unmatched visitor experience. There are six large habitats with playgrounds. The area is the same size as Melbourne Zoo’s full footprint. It also includes two big pools that together hold nearly two million liters of water and offer about 1,300 square meters of swimming space. Two specially designed elephant barns include a sleeping area filled with 3,300 tonnes of sand. Two overpasses will allow the elephants to cross over visitor walking paths, allowing the elephants to move between habitats. (大象通道的设计将动物福利放在首位,同时兼顾了无与伦比的游客体验。这里有六个带有游乐场的大型栖息地。该区域与墨尔本动物园的整个占地面积相当。这里还包括两个大型水池,总蓄水量近200万升,提供了约1300平方米的游泳空间。两个特别设计的大象牲口棚里有一个用3300吨沙子填充的休息区。两座天桥将让大象能够跨越游客步行道,方便它们在不同栖息地之间移动。)”可知,本段主要告诉我们大象们新家的优势。故选B。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。由文章最后一段中“With the elephants’ benefit the top thing for keepers, Ms Truelson was sure that visitors will have to wait a few more weeks. Werribee has never before had so many elephants in its 41-year history and making it happen was a huge job including a 21-person keeper team. (由于饲养员将大象的福利放在首位,Truelson女士确信游客们还需要再等几周。在维里比41年的历史中,从未有过这么多大象,实现这一目标是一项艰巨的任务,包括组建了一支21人的饲养员团队。)”可知,游客们需要等待是因为动物园必须做好充分的准备。故选D。
C
Some of life’s simplest mysteries can prove the hardest to solve. One such mystery is how a bird sleeps, especially while it’s on a branch.
The sleep cycle during our deepest sleep lasts for several minutes, but in birds, it lasts hardly 10 seconds; they will keep one part of their brain awake, which you might notice when a bird has one eye open. This will allow birds to run away from a hunt at a moment’s notice, even when they’re in the middle of a sleep.
To fall asleep, a bird’s body goes through a series of changes, one of which is that the muscles lose their hardness, which happens as a main result of reduced brain control of muscle movement. To stand perfectly balanced on a branch while the muscles become weak isn’t easy. Anyone who has tried to sleep while standing on a train would know this. So when a bird lowers itself, its talons (爪子) automatically and involuntarily bend and hold on tightly to the branch, and until the leg is straightened, the talons will not relax. The key behind this mechanism (机制) is the bird’s flexor tendons (屈肌腱) that connect muscles to bones. The flexor tendon stretches, thus bending the bird’s toes.
But a recent paper found that sleeping European starlings (a common bird found in North America and Europe) don’t use the mechanism. The researchers observed that the birds bent their knees only slightly, not enough for the mechanism to kick into action. The toes, as a result, were largely unbent, and the birds balanced on the central part of their feet while they slept.
“Birds are varied and unique, exhibiting different bodies, physiologies, and behaviors depending on which species, genus, or family one studies. Sleep cycles differ just as widely. While we may not know the whole story yet, there is no denying that it is remarkable that birds manage this balancing act daily!” said Salama, who has a degree in life sciences and biochemistry from St. Xavier’s College, Mumbai.
28. What does the underlined word “This” in the second paragraph refer to?
A. The continuation of deep sleep. B. The difference in sleep cycles.
C Birds’ special brain structure. D. Birds’ light sleep style.
29. What is the role of flexor tendons in helping birds balance on branches?
A. Stretching to make talons bend and lock.
B. Enabling the power of birds’ legs.
C. Controlling muscles’ hardness and movement.
D. Connecting muscles to strengthen their functions.
30. What can we infer from Salama’s words?
A. Learning birds’ habits needs cooperation.
B. Denying birds’ importance is unwise.
C. Knowing birds’ balancing acts is useful.
D. Studying birds’ sleep has challenges.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Why Do Birds Require Less Sleep?
B Why Don’t Sleeping Birds Fall Off Branches?
C. Why Do Sleeping Birds Have One Eye Open?
D Why Do European Starlings Sleep Differently?
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,文章介绍了鸟的睡眠周期短且部分大脑清醒,还阐述其站着睡的平衡机制及欧椋鸟的特殊情况。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“The sleep cycle during our deepest sleep lasts for several minutes, but in birds, it lasts hardly 10 seconds; they will keep one part of their brain awake, which you might notice when a bird has one eye open. This will allow birds to run away from a hunt at a moment’s notice, even when they’re in the middle of a sleep. (在我们深度睡眠期间,睡眠周期会持续几分钟,但对于鸟类而言,这一周期几乎持续不到 10 秒;它们会让大脑的一部分保持清醒,当一只鸟睁着一只眼睛时,你可能会注意到这一点。这使鸟类即使在睡眠中,也能随时注意到危险并迅速逃离捕猎者)”可知,鸟类的睡眠深度仅持续10秒左右。并且,鸟类会保持一半大脑处于清醒状态。这样短暂且灵活的睡眠方式使它们即使在睡眠中也能随时逃避猎食者。由此可知,划线词This在这里指代鸟类浅的睡眠方式。故选D项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“So when a bird lowers itself, its talons (爪子) automatically and involuntarily bend and hold on tightly to the branch, and until the leg is straightened, the talons will not relax. The key behind this mechanism (机制) is the bird’s flexor tendons (屈肌腱) that connect muscles to bones. The flexor tendon stretches, thus bending the bird’s toes. (因此,当一只鸟放低身体时,它的爪子会自动地、不自觉地弯曲,紧紧地抓住树枝,直到腿伸直,爪子才会放松。这种机制背后的关键是连接肌肉和骨骼的屈肌腱。屈肌腱伸展,从而使鸟的脚趾弯曲)”可知,鸟类的屈肌腱连接了肌肉和骨骼,伸展时会使得鸟类的脚趾弯曲牢牢锁住树枝以保持平衡。故选A项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘Birds are varied and unique, exhibiting different bodies, physiologies, and behaviors depending on which species, genus, or family one studies. Sleep cycles differ just as widely. While we may not know the whole story yet, there is no denying that it is remarkable that birds manage this balancing act daily!’ said Salama, who has a degree in life sciences and biochemistry from St. Xavier’s College, Mumbai. (‘鸟类多样而独特,根据研究的物种、属或科的不同,它们表现出不同的身体、生理和行为。睡眠周期的差异也很大。虽然我们可能还不知道整个故事,但不可否认的是,鸟类每天都能做到这种平衡是非常了不起的!’拥有孟买圣泽维尔学院生命科学和生物化学学位的Salama说)可知,Salama认为:鸟类种类繁多且独特,所以会展现出不同的身体特征、生理结构和行为。同时,它们的睡眠周期同样复杂,我们尚未了解全部情况。由此推知,研究鸟类睡眠是有挑战的。故选D项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“One such mystery is how a bird sleeps, especially while it’s on a branch. (其中一个谜是鸟是如何睡觉的,尤其是当它在树枝上的时候)”以及通读全文可知,文章主要解释了鸟类在树上睡觉时不会掉下来的原因。所以B项Why Don’t Sleeping Birds Fall Off Branches? (为什么睡觉的鸟不会从树枝上掉下来?)作为文章标题最为合适。故选B项。
D
My job is to train rats to find landmines (地雷) so the dangers can be cleared to save lives. I work for a Belgian non-governmental organization called Apopo that operates from Morogoro, in my home country of Tanzania. The rats I train are used in mine-clearing programs around the world, including in Angola, Azerbaijan and Cambodia.
The animals we use are a species of African giant rat called Cricetomys ansorgei (非洲巨鼠). They are born in sub-Saharan Africa and are the size of a small cat, which makes them easy to catch. They also live longer than other rats, which is helpful for the program, because it takes between nine months and a year to train one fully.
My colleagues and I use a method called clicker training: we teach the rats to relate a click with a food reward, and then use clicks to gradually reward behaviour. Rats are naturally curious, so they will explore, and their great sense of smell means they can find buried landmines.
To teach the rats what to look for, we place small amounts of TNT explosives (炸药) in some tea eggs and mix them with some filled with other things. We reward the rats for touching these, then move on to reward them only when they touch a tea egg filled with explosives, rather than ones filled with other things, such as hair, flowers and so on. The rats need to perform perfectly at each stage of training before they move to the next stage. In the final stage, we use real landmines in a training field.
As trainers, we build a connection with the rats we train. Some are slow learners; others know the process very quickly. Most of the rats make it through, eventually. I work with our resident scientist to continually follow and improve our training program, because the rats are so clever that they can be smarter than trainers!
32. What’s the key to the training?
A. Linking behavior and rewards. B. Increasing the difficulty gradually.
C. Making the rats get used to the click. D. Exercising rats’ sense of smell.
33. Why did the author choose to use Cricetomys ansorgei?
A. They can be seen commonly. B. They’re easily accessible.
C. They’re quickly trained. D. They live for up to a year.
34. What can be inferred from the training process?
A. Rats can find out all the explosives quickly.
B. Most rats are quick learners.
C. The training won’t stay the same.
D. Real landmines aren’t used in training.
35. Which is the best title for the text?
A. How Rats Contribute to Saving Life. B. Why Giant Rats Can Be Useful.
C. How I Train Rats to Find Explosives. D. Why We Use Clicker to Train Rats.
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. C 35. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己在一个非政府组织训练老鼠寻找爆炸物以帮助扫雷项目的故事。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“My colleagues and I use a method called clicker training: we teach the rats to relate a click with a food reward, and then use clicks to gradually reward behaviour. (我和我的同事们使用了一种叫做“点击训练”的方法:我们教老鼠把咔嗒声和食物奖励联系起来,然后用咔嗒声来逐渐奖励行为)”可以推断,训练的关键是把行为和奖励联系起来。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“They are born in sub-Saharan Africa and are the size of a small cat, which makes them easy to catch. (它们出生在撒哈拉以南非洲地区,体型像一只小猫,很容易被捕捉到)”可知,这种鼠类体型接近猫,很容易被捕获,即它们很容易获得。故选B。
【34题详解】

There’s no better way to better understand a foreign culture than through one of its festivals. Here are some interesting festivals in the world.
La Tomatina (Spain)
Last Wednesday of August
This “largest food fight in the world” is believed to have been started with a tomato — but it certainly didn’t end with just one. Now, more than 50,000 people pack the streets of Buñfol, Spain, armed with cheap tomatoes, ready to throw them at friends and strangers alike. Gloves and safety glasses are suggested as the battle can get quite heated, even though it lasts just an hour. While past years allowed anyone and everyone to take part, the large number of attendees pushed town officials to require tickets.
National Beer Day (Iceland)
March 1
It’s no secret that Icelanders are fond of partying. After all, when there are days when the sun won’t stop shining, it makes sense to throw back a few to celebrate. However, it wasn’t that long ago (1989) that Iceland was still under a form of prohibition and unable to sell beer. When the laws were passed to make beer legal on March 1, 1989, Icelanders were excited and have since celebrated National Beer Day each March 1 with pub dances and other celebrations that last until the early hours of the morning. Beer has since become the most popular drink in the country.
Monkey Banquet (盛宴) (Thailand)
Last Sunday in November
If you’ve ever come in close contact with monkeys, you know that they are often a bit troublesome, taking a sandwich from your hand without warning or breaking into your hotel minibar if you forget to lock the doors (true story). However, in 1989, in Lopburi, Thailand, a local innkeeper decided to feed the monkeys a banquet as they’re also believed to bring good luck. Thus, a tradition was born and the banquet has grown each year. As the monkeys run into the banquet, they soon get a bit excited and start dancing on the tables and throwing food. For visitors, it’s a highly enjoyable sight-just be sure to wear clothes that you don’t mind being decorated by the monkeys.
21. Why did Icelanders start National Beer Day?
A. To enjoy the sunshine.
B. To remember the period.
C. To appreciate beer as the most popular drink.
D. To celebrate the legality of beer selling.
22. What’s the purpose of the Monkey Banquet held at first?
A. To attract visitors. B. To feed monkeys.
C. To gain good luck. D. To enjoy a joyful sight.
23. If a tourist plans to experience a festival in summer, which one is suitable?
A. La Tomatina B. National Beer Day
C. The Monkey Banquet D. The Lantern Festival
B
Moving house is a big and emotional business. So when a whole group of Asian elephants made a historic move from Melbourne to Werribee this week, they shared a moving reunion as they explored their new world-class habitat for the first time. The elephants trumpeted (吼叫) as they appeared from their air-conditioned trucks to take their first steps in their new home. They also touched each other and moved their ears, showing excitement and a strong social connection. The elephants wasted no time getting acquainted with their new playgrounds.
Werribee Open Range Zoo zookeeper Lucy Truelson said it was inspiring to see the elephants explore their new habitat, following years of careful planning to reach this groundbreaking moment. “They are celebrating and really enjoying their new surroundings,” Ms Truelson said. “They’re playing, exploring the landscape and they’ve slept beautifully. All these things show us that they’re happy. This is everything we hoped for.”
The elephant path is designed to put animal benefit first with an unmatched visitor experience. There are six large habitats with playgrounds. The area is the same size as Melbourne Zoo’s full footprint. It also includes two big pools that together hold nearly two million liters of water and offer about 1,300 square meters of swimming space. Two specially designed elephant barns include a sleeping area filled with 3,300 tonnes of sand. Two overpasses will allow the elephants to cross over visitor walking paths, allowing the elephants to move between habitats.
With the elephants’ benefit the top thing for keepers, Ms Truelson was sure that visitors will have to wait a few more weeks. Werribee has never before had so many elephants in its 41-year history and making it happen was a huge job including a 21-person keeper team.
24. How does Lucy Truelson feel about the move?
A. Concerned. B. Disappointed. C. Satisfied. D. Confused.
25 What does the underlined word “acquainted” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Familiar. B. Addicted. C. Affected. D. Content.
26. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about these elephants?
A. Means of transporting them. B. Advantages of their new home.
C. Challenges faced by them. D. Their experience with visitors.
27. Why do visitors have to wait?
A. The elephants need to be trained.
B. The elephants fear to see visitors.
C. The zoo will give visitors a big surprise.
D. The zoo has to make full preparations.
C
Some of life’s simplest mysteries can prove the hardest to solve. One such mystery is how a bird sleeps, especially while it’s on a branch.
The sleep cycle during our deepest sleep lasts for several minutes, but in birds, it lasts hardly 10 seconds; they will keep one part of their brain awake, which you might notice when a bird has one eye open. This will allow birds to run away from a hunt at a moment’s notice, even when they’re in the middle of a sleep.
To fall asleep, a bird’s body goes through a series of changes, one of which is that the muscles lose their hardness, which happens as a main result of reduced brain control of muscle movement. To stand perfectly balanced on a branch while the muscles become weak isn’t easy. Anyone who has tried to sleep while standing on a train would know this. So when a bird lowers itself, its talons (爪子) automatically and involuntarily bend and hold on tightly to the branch, and until the leg is straightened, the talons will not relax. The key behind this mechanism (机制) is the bird’s flexor tendons (屈肌腱) that connect muscles to bones. The flexor tendon stretches, thus bending the bird’s toes.
But a recent paper found that sleeping European starlings (a common bird found in North America and Europe) don’t use the mechanism. The researchers observed that the birds bent their knees only slightly, not enough for the mechanism to kick into action. The toes, as a result, were largely unbent, and the birds balanced on the central part of their feet while they slept.
“Birds are varied and unique, exhibiting different bodies, physiologies, and behaviors depending on which species, genus, or family one studies. Sleep cycles differ just as widely. While we may not know the whole story yet, there is no denying that it is remarkable that birds manage this balancing act daily!” said Salama, who has a degree in life sciences and biochemistry from St. Xavier’s College, Mumbai.
28. What does the underlined word “This” in the second paragraph refer to?
A. The continuation of deep sleep. B. The difference in sleep cycles.
C. Birds’ special brain structure. D. Birds’ light sleep style.
29. What is the role of flexor tendons in helping birds balance on branches?
A. Stretching to make talons bend and lock.
B. Enabling the power of birds’ legs.
C. Controlling muscles’ hardness and movement.
D. Connecting muscles to strengthen their functions.
30. What can we infer from Salama’s words?
A. Learning birds’ habits needs cooperation.
B. Denying birds’ importance is unwise.
C. Knowing birds’ balancing acts is useful.
D Studying birds’ sleep has challenges.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Why Do Birds Require Less Sleep?
B. Why Don’t Sleeping Birds Fall Off Branches?
C. Why Do Sleeping Birds Have One Eye Open?
D. Why Do European Starlings Sleep Differently?
D
My job is to train rats to find landmines (地雷) so the dangers can be cleared to save lives. I work for a Belgian non-governmental organization called Apopo that operates from Morogoro, in my home country of Tanzania. The rats I train are used in mine-clearing programs around the world, including in Angola, Azerbaijan and Cambodia.
The animals we use are a species of African giant rat called Cricetomys ansorgei (非洲巨鼠). They are born in sub-Saharan Africa and are the size of a small cat, which makes them easy to catch. They also live longer than other rats, which is helpful for the program, because it takes between nine months and a year to train one fully.
My colleagues and I use a method called clicker training: we teach the rats to relate a click with a food reward, and then use clicks to gradually reward behaviour. Rats are naturally curious, so they will explore, and their great sense of smell means they can find buried landmines.
To teach the rats what to look for, we place small amounts of TNT explosives (炸药) in some tea eggs and mix them with some filled with other things. We reward the rats for touching these, then move on to reward them only when they touch a tea egg filled with explosives, rather than ones filled with other things, such as hair, flowers and so on. The rats need to perform perfectly at each stage of training before they move to the next stage. In the final stage, we use real landmines in a training field.
As trainers, we build a connection with the rats we train. Some are slow learners; others know the process very quickly. Most of the rats make it through, eventually. I work with our resident scientist to continually follow and improve our training program, because the rats are so clever that they can be smarter than trainers!
32. What’s the key to the training?
A. Linking behavior and rewards. B. Increasing the difficulty gradually.
C. Making the rats get used to the click. D. Exercising rats’ sense of smell.
33. Why did the author choose to use Cricetomys ansorgei?
A. They can be seen commonly. B. They’re easily accessible.
C. They’re quickly trained. D. They live for up to a year.
34. What can be inferred from the training process?
A. Rats can find out all the explosives quickly.
B. Most rats are quick learners.
C. The training won’t stay the same.
D. Real landmines aren’t used in training.
35. Which is the best title for the text?
A. How Rats Contribute to Saving Life. B. Why Giant Rats Can Be Useful.
C How I Train Rats to Find Explosives. D. Why We Use Clicker to Train Rats.
