If talking near a busy rad is tugh, think hw hard it is t raise a baby bird in that place. Anew experiment n grwing birds shws traffic nise has a negative influence n their grwth and leads t lifelng harm.
Researchers already knew t much nise can disturb breeding birds, making it mre difficult fr parents t cmmunicate with and care fr their nestlings. But it wasn't clear whether the nise itself culd directly harm yung birds.
Mariette, a behaviral eclgist at Deakin University, and her team set ut t answer that questin with zebra finches held in an aviary(鸟舍) n campus in Melburne, Australia. Fr 5nights they played eggs either rad nise r zebra finch sngs fr several hurs. The sunds were kept at a mderate vlume f 65 decibel. Other eggs were left in silence. After the eggs hatched, the baby birds received ne f tw treatments —— rad nise r zebra finch sngs ——fr anther 9 nights. The nestlings heard the sunds in a separate rm and then were returned t their nests.
Eggs that heard traffic nise hatched 19% less ften than thse that heard bird sngs. As the baby birds develped, they als shwed wrrying develpment signs. Thse expsed t nise grew slwer, and had health prblems. Their bld had fewer red bld cells, and their cells were under stress. When they became adults, they had half as many babies as the birds that heard sngs when they were yung. “I've never had such clear results in any experiments befre,” Mariette says.
Hw exactly traffic nise harms the yung birds remains a mystery. Auditry (听觉的)parts f the brain cnnect t areas imprtant fr develpment and the regulatin f emtin and learning, s it's likely that nise culd disrupt healthy grwth. Mariette says she wuld like t cnduct ther experiments t learn what aspects f nise are harmful. Fr example, it culd be that hearing cnstant sund withut any rhythm —— unlike sng—is smehw stressful.
32. What des the underlined wrd “nestlings” in paragraph 2mean?
A. Baby birds. B. Sick birds. C. Mther birds. D. Birds’ eggs.
33. Why did Mariette and her team cnduct the experiment?
A. T test the vlume f nises n campus.
B. T answer a questin abut zebra finches.
C. T cmpare rad nise with zebra finch sngs.
D. T examine the influence f nise n little birds.
34. Hw did the nise affect the birds 'grwth accrding t the experiment?
A. It made them less stressful.
B. It prevented the birds having babies.
C. It led t the slw grwth f the birds.
D. It reduced parent birds 'red bld cells.
35. What is Mariette mst likely t study next?
