When night falls,the world becomes a lively concert.Our ears are greeted by all kinds of
sounds.We can clearly hear the loud noise of cars and the sounds made by insects.But there's one
group of animals whose sounds can't be heard normally.They are bats ()
Now,you have the chance to listen to their"songs".Scientists have created a project called
Bat Detective and set up a website for it.The website is like a big treasure box full of sound
recordings that are collected by volunteers.
On special nights,these volunteers get into their cars.They drive at a fixed speed and follow
certain routes().A recorder is placed on top of each car,As they drive,the recorder acts like a
super-listener.It can collect the soft calls of bats flying in the sky.After the volunteers finish their
routes,they send these recordings to the scientists right away.By using computers,the scientists can
turn the bat calls into sounds that we can hear easily.
What are scientists trying to achieve by doing this?A member of the project explains,"Since
bats are sensitive (to changes in the environment,the sounds they make can show the
condition of their living place.For example,if the air is polluted,bats might change the way they
talk'or make different sounds.By listening to these sounds,scientists can tell if an area needs
protection."
So,why not join this project and become a bat detective?You can help protect these amazing
animals and their environment.

to a special machine.

Some cities in China have included BMI in the P.E.test for the high school entrance
examination,also named zhongkao.For example,Beijing made BMl a subject of the P.E.test for
zhongkao in 2021.Chengdu and Shanghai have also done something like this.BMI in cities like
Xiamen,although not included in zhongkao,still plays a role in the P.E.tests of each term.
Zhang Yanshu is a Grade 8 student from Beijing Chaoyang Foreign Language School.He used
to be very heavy."It was this summer that I decided to work on my BMI,"Zhang said.He started
by running with his dad,and soon he took a stamina (course which trained him in different
things like running pull-ups and so on."I think BMI and the events for the exam go well together.
When I practice the events,my BMl gets better;when my BMI gets better,I feel more energetic
doing the events."
Zhang also paid much attention to his diet(日常饮食)."I ate brown rice instead of white rice
and chicken for meat most of the time,"he said."It was sad,for sure."His BMI reached a norma
level(水平)after four months of effort."My health and willpower(意志力)have seen a big
improvement."
Chen Kaifei,14,also from Beijing said that BMI is also a problem for students who are too thin,
and has caused some“figure anxiety(身材焦虑)”among students."However,.mostly I think it's
helpful."Chen said."Everyone knows more about their body conditions.and I started to care about
my diet and lifestyle every day,simply to keep my BMI at a good level."

Have you ever searched hopelessly for your glasses,only to find them on your head?This
common situation happens because our brains have natural blind spots()for nearby objects.
Scientists call it"inattentional blindness".
Early humans had to watch out for faraway dangers like wild animals.That's why today,when
we hurry to look for something,our brains still look far away first.When we're in a hurry,we miss
things within arm's reach 73%of the time(Cambridge University,2023).When we think of too
many places at the same time,our brain gets overloaded().Its"search center"can only deal
with 3 to 4 spots at one time.That's wny nearby areas,like our hand,are often unnoticed.
-7-
The Chinese phrase"deng xia hei'perfectly describes this.
To get through this problem,here are some steps.First,always check your nearby area first,
like pockets,hands,and desks.Next,go to farther places step by step.Then,stay cool.If you worry,
busy thoughts will crowd your mind and vou'll make nearly 40%more mistakes.
"Eyes see,but the brain decides."This scientific fact reminas us that real seeing isn't just about
eyes;it's about focused attention.
81.What does"inattentional blindness'mean from the passage?
82.Why did early humans focus on faraway areas?
83.What's the possibility that we miss nearby objects when in a hurry?
84.Why does worry increase the number of mistakes when we search?
85.What other ways do you use to avoid "inattentional blindness"in daily life?
