On a wet June mrning， Emily Bick winds thrugh a field f knee-high crn， just nrth f Madisn， Wiscnsin. It feels like that quiet， anticipatin-filled mment befre a cncert: Tech peple are setting up micrphnes， laying wires.
She's here fr a shw. The star f this particular shw is the micrphne itself. Research assistants are attaching it t the crn plants， an innvatin that Bick named the Insect Eavesdrpper（偷听者）.
Bick， a scientist， researches ways t better detect the agricultural insects that lead t serius ecnmic lsses wrldwide. She says imprving the harvest culd be dne by using chemicals t kill them mre strategically— less ften， at just the right time.
In the Crn Belt， that's crn rtwrm， als knwn as the"billin dllar insect". The insect feeds n crn rts， limiting the plant's nutrient supply and making plants easy t falling ver. Climate change is bringing new challenges. insects are n the up and up in warmer temperatures and expanding their ranges. "We lse 20% f ur crp t the insect， s we shuld prbably be ding smething if we want t cnserve mre land fr nn-agricultural use，" Bick says.
Bick's slutin t the prblem f insect detectin is sund: Identify the insect by eavesdrpping n the unique skaking that it makes when chewing n a plant. The Insect Eavesdrpper uses a cntact micrphne， an affrdable device that musician s ften use n instruments. A little metal device sits n a slid bject—— like crn—— and captures the shaking mving thrugh it， registering each ne with an electrical signal.
"When crn rtwrm feeds n the rts， the shaking translate frm the rt system t the tp f the plant，" Bick says. "That's where we' re picking it up. We' re using the plant as the musical instrument， as essentially the utside f a guitar."
The Insect Eavesdrpper has pened Bick's ears t a whle wrld f insect sunds， including her new favrite: Aphids， which eat up the sugars flwing thrugh phlem （韧皮部） with a straw-like muth part. "It kind f sunds like yu stuck a straw t the bttm f a milkshake（奶昔），" she says.
24．Why des Bick cme t the crn field？
A.T experience the quietness in the wild.
B.T enjy a field music perfrmance.
C.T cllect infrmatin n agricultural insects.
D.T anticipate a bright crn harvesting.
25．What can be inferred frm Bick's wrds in Paragraph 4？
A.The limited supply f crn nutrient.
B.The urgency t slve the insect attack.
C.The effect f glbal warming n agriculture.
D.The ecnmic lss f the agriculture industry.
26．Hw des Bick's Insect Eavesdrpper wrk？
A.By recrding the sund mvement frm plants.
B.By bradcasting famus music t crn plants.
C.By numbering the insects n the plants.
D.By sending sweet musical signals.
27．What can we knw abut Bick's Insect Eavesdrpper？
A.It has high cst.
B.It has a huge size.
C.It is reliable.
D.It is faulty.
Researchers studied nearly 450 grassy structures built ver tw years by white-brwed sparrw weavers（肯尼亚织雀） living in the Kalahari Desert in Suth Africa.
"Experiments shw that inexperienced male birds will watch familiar males chsing nest- building materials and then use that infrmatin t adjust their wn chices. Fr example， they preferred a pink tape befre， rather than an range ne， but they will prefer the range ne if they see thers using it，" says Maria Cristina Tell-Rams， a researcher.
This bird species builds grass structures that serve tw purpses: They can be turned int a safe spt t hatch eggs， but they' re als shelters where birds can safely rest inside at night. Birds shape grass int a tube， which ends up being shaped basically like an upside- dwn letter"U".
T learn mre， Maria and her cwrkers measured every single structure built by 43 family grups ver tw seasns. They analyzed everything frm the length f the tubes t the tubes' width t the angle between the U-shaped tubes'"arms". They intended t see what might accunt fr the bserved differences， carefully cnsidering factrs like temperatures， wind speed， and the number f birds in each family. They culdn't find any explanatin fr why the birds were building such different structures. "And since it's knwn that these birds are highly scial，" says Tell-Rams， "it seems prbable that family members are just cpying each ther， creating a culture f nest-building that gets passed dwn again and again and again."
Smetimes a family will take an utsider under their wing and let it jin the grup. "WhatI fund mst fascinating was the fact that when a new sparrw weaver jins the grup， it desn't bring the cultural transmissin（传送） f its ld grup，" says Catherine Sheard， a bilgist. "That wuldn't have been what I predicted."
28．What des Tell stress in her wrds in the secnd paragraph？
A.Birds emply genetics t build nests.
B.Birds cnstruct nests t attract females.
C.Birds tend t fllw suit in nest-building.
D.Birds build their nests with clrful materials.
29．Why d birds build different shapes f nests accrding t Tell-Rams？
A.Because they adapt their sizes t family members.
B.Because they adjust the nests t match wind speed.
C.Because they take temperature changes int accunt.
D.Because they have varius family nesting preferences.
30．What did Sheard riginally expect in her study？
A.New-cmers wuld build nests accrding t genetic data.
B.New birds wuldn't adapt new cultures f nest-building.
C.New jiners wuld keep their wn cultural traditins.
D.New members wuld adpt the new nest-building ways.
31．What is the best title fr the text？
A.Clrful Nests Are a Fashin fr Birds
B.Traditin Lies in nest-building Materials
C.Birds Build Their Culture int Their Nests
D.Nest-Building Reflects Birds' Gender
Over 100 years ag， Alexander Graham Bell asked the readers t d smething brave and fresh—"t fund a new science". He pinted ut that sciences based n the measurement f sund and light already existed. But there was n science f dr（气味）. Bell asked his readers t"measure a smell".
Tday， smart phnes prvide impressive built-in capabilities based n the sciences f sund and light: vice assistants， facial recgnitin and pht imprvement. The science f dr des nt ffer anything cmparable. But that situatin is changing， as advances in machine smell， als called"digitized smell"， are finally answering Bell's call t actin.
Whereas human visin mainly relies n cells in the retina(视网膜), smell is experienced thrugh abut 400 types f cells in the nse. Machine smell starts with sensrs that detect and identify mlecules(分子) in the air. These sensrs serve the same purpse as the cells in yur nse, But t be useful t peple, machine smell needs t g a step further. The system needs t knw what a certain mlecule r a set f mlecules smells like t a human. S the challenge is frmidable. Fr that, machine smell needs machine learning.
Machine learning studies the wrds humans tend t use t describe what they experience when they encunter specific dr-causing things. Hwever， the web has an unimaginably huge amunt f audi， image and vide cntent that can be used t train artificial intelligence systems that recgnize sunds and pictures. Mst peple cannt describe smells in wrd as effrtlessly and recgnizably as they can describe sights and sunds. S researchers weren't able t train really pwerful machine learning mdels.
Hwever， things started t change in 2015 when researchers launched the DREAM Smell Predictin Challenge. The cmpetitin released data cllected by Andreas Keller and Leslie Vsshall， and invited teams frm arund the wrld t submit their machine learning mdels. By 2019， the largest datasets had grwn frm less than 500 mlecules in the DREAM challenge t abut 5，000 mlecules. Such prgress in unlcking the cde f smell is nt nly exciting but als has highly prmising applicatins， including persnalized dr， early detectin f disease， and mre realistic augmented reality（增强现实技术） experiences. The future f machine smell lks bright. It als prmises t smell gd.
32．Why des the authr mentin Alexander Graham Bell？
A.T prve the current prgress in machine smell.
B.T illustrate Bell's research int sund and light.
C.T stress the applicatin f digitalized smell.
D.T ffer sme backgrund infrmatin f the science f smell.
33．What des the underlined wrd"frmidable" in Paragraph 3 mean？
A.Rewarding.
B.Demanding.
C.Stimulating.
D.Cnfusing.
34．What is Paragraph 4 mainly abut？
A.Intrduce the shrtage f smell datasets.
B.Warn peple f the junk infrmatin.
C.Illustrate the use f smell training mdel.
D.Predict the tendency fr machine learning.
35．What is the authr's attitude twards the machine smell？

In the heart f a city， lcated between tall buildings and busy streets， was a small but lively animal shelter named"Paws Haven". It had been a place fr cuntless stray（流浪的） and abandned animals， prviding them with fd， shelter， and lve.
That day， teenagers Mia and Le passed the shelter and nticed a pster fr a vlunteer prgram.
Mia was instantly fascinated. "Le， think abut all thse pr animals that need ur help. Let's sign up t be vlunteers." Le， hwever， was hesitant. "I dn't knw， Mia. Vlunteering might be a lt f wrk， and we already have schl and ther cmmitments."
Mia persisted. "Just imagine hw rewarding it wuld be t make a difference in their lives. Cme n！ Let's d it." Eventually， Le agreed.
They went t the animal shelter and were immediately put t wrk. They cleaned cages， fed the animals， and played with them. As days passed， they grew attached t the furry（覆盖毛皮的） creatures and fund a new sense f purpse.
One sunny Saturday， as they were preparing the afternn meal fr the animals， Mia happened t hear a cnversatin that filled her with fear. The shelter's directr， Ms. Harper， was discussing with a staff member the terrible financial situatin Paws Haven was facing. With dnatins decreasing and peratinal csts rising， the shelter was n the brink（边缘） f clsure. "We can't g n like this much lnger，" Ms. Harper sighed.
Mia immediately relayed the news t Le， and they bth felt a sense f urgency. "We can't let this happen，" Le said， determinatin shining in his eyes. "We have t d smething."
They came up with a plan: rganize a cmmunity fundraiser event. They wuld call it"A Night fr Paws"， a cmbinatin f a pet talent shw， bake sale， and silent auctin（拍卖）.

24．答案： C
解析： 细节理解题。根据前三段内容可知，Emily Bick是研究如何更好地检测农业害虫的科学家，因此她来到玉米地是为了利用"Insect Eavesdrpper"收集关于农业害虫的信息。
25．答案： B
解析： 推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知，本段主要介绍了玉米根虫的危害性，由此可知，解决农业害虫的问题迫在眉睫。
26．答案： A
解析： 细节理解题。根据第五段以及第六段可知，Bick的"Insect Eavesdrpper"是通过记录来自植物的声音运动来工作的。
27．答案： C
解析： 推理判断题。根据第五段"Bick's slutin t the prblem f insect detectin is sund"可知，Bick的设备是实用的。
28．答案： C
解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段Experiments shw that inexperienced male birds will watch familiar males chsing nest-building materials and then use that infrmatin t adjust their wn chices.以及第四段it seems prbable that family members are just cpying each ther可知，Tell-Rams通过实验说明没有经验的雄性雀会观察并模仿其他同类选择筑巢材料，进而强调织雀在筑巢时可能也相互模仿。
29．答案： D
解析： 推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知，研究人员测量了鸟巢的各种数据并考虑了多种因素，但仍找不到鸟儿建造不同结构鸟巢的原因。文中提到这些鸟高度社会化，并且家庭成员之间似乎在相互模仿筑巢，形成了一种代代相传的筑巢文化。由此可推知不同家庭在筑巢方面有各自的特点，即有不同的筑巢偏好。
30．答案： C
解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段中可知，新加入的织雀不会将旧群体的文化传播到新群体中。这一发现与Sheard原来的预期相反。因此，她原来的预期应该是新加入的鸟类会带来它们原来群体的文化传统。
31．答案： C
解析： 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了鸟儿在筑巢方面存在相互模仿，形成一种筑巢文化并代代相传的现象，因此C项"Birds build their culture int theirnests"适合作文章标题。
32．答案： D
解析： 推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知，作者提到Alexander Graham Bell是因为他在100多年前呼吁建立一门关于气味的新科学，因此是提供气味科学的背景信息。
33．答案： B
解析： 词义猜测题。根据画线词前可知，机器嗅觉要知道某个分子或一组分子对人类来说闻起来像什么，要实现这样的功能并且进一步了解对人类来说的气味感受是非常困难的任务，因此"frmidable"在这里的意思与"demanding"相近。
34．答案： A
解析： 推理判断题。根据第四段中可知，大多数人无法像描述景象和声音那样轻松、可辨别地用言语描述气味。因此，研究人员无法训练出真正强大的机器学习模型，这是它的缺点。
35．答案： B
解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段中"The future f machine smell lks bright.It als prmises t smellgd."可推知，作者对机器嗅觉持乐观态度。
36．答案： F; B; A; D; E
