Anyne wh cmmutes (通勤) by car knws that traffic jams are an unavidable part f life. But humans are nt alne in facing ptential backups.
Ants als cmmute—between their nest and surces f fd. The survival f their habitats depends n ding this efficiently.
When humans cmmute, there's a pint at which cars becme dense (稠密) enugh t slw dwn the flw f traffic, causing jam. Researchers wanted t knw if ants n the mve culd als get stuck. S they regulated traffic density by cnstructing bridges f varius widths between a clny f Argentine ants and a surce f fd. Then they waited and watched, trying t find ut at what pint they are ging t have a traffic jam.
But it appears that that never happened. They always managed t avid traffic jam. The flw f ants did increase at the beginning as ants started t fill the bridge and then levelled ff at high densities. But it never slwed dwn r stpped, even when the bridge was nearly filled with ants.
The researchers then tk a clser lk at hw the behaviur f individual ants impacted traffic as a whle. And they fund that when ants sense vercrwding, they adjust their speeds and avid entering high-density areas, which prevents jams. These behavirs may be prmted by phermnes, chemicals that tell ther ants where a trail is. The ants als manage t avid clliding (碰撞) with each ther at high densities, which culd really slw them dwn.
Can ants help us slve ur wn traffic prblems? Nt likely. That's because when it cmes t getting frm pint A t pint B as fast as pssible, human drivers put their wn gals first. Individual ants have t be mre cperative in rder t feed the clny. But the research culd be useful in imprving traffic flw fr self-driving cars, which can be designed t be less like selfish humans—and mre like ants.
32. What des the underlined wrd "this" in paragraph 2 refer t?
A. Surviving.
B. Cmmuting.
C. Finding fd.
D. Aviding jams.
33. Hw did the researchers cntrl the traffic density f the cmmuting ants?
A. Thrugh clser bservatin.
B. By regulating their numbers.
C. By finding ut the dense pints.
D. By cntrlling the widths f their path.
34. Hw can ants avid traffic jam accrding t the research?
A. They fllw a special rute.
B. They level ff at high densities.
C. They never stp r slw dwn n the way.
D. They depend n their natural chemicals t adjust their speeds.
35. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Traffic jams
B. Survival f an ant clny
C. Unavidable? Nt fr ants!
D. Differences between human and ants

And in US authr James Finn Gamer's bk "Plitically Crrect Bedtime Stries", he tells the classic stry f "Little Red Riding Hd", but with a mdern tuch.
40 They may usually start with "Once upn a time but as we grw lder, we learn that every stry desn't always need a "happily ever after" t be a gd ne.

Anyne wh cmmutes (通勤) by car knws that traffic jams are an unavidable part f life. But humans are nt alne in facing ptential backups.
Ants als cmmute—between their nest and surces f fd. The survival f their habitats depends n ding this efficiently.
When humans cmmute, there's a pint at which cars becme dense (稠密) enugh t slw dwn the flw f traffic, causing jam. Researchers wanted t knw if ants n the mve culd als get stuck. S they regulated traffic density by cnstructing bridges f varius widths between a clny f Argentine ants and a surce f fd. Then they waited and watched, trying t find ut at what pint they are ging t have a traffic jam.
But it appears that that never happened. They always managed t avid traffic jam. The flw f ants did increase at the beginning as ants started t fill the bridge and then levelled ff at high densities. But it never slwed dwn r stpped, even when the bridge was nearly filled with ants.
The researchers then tk a clser lk at hw the behaviur f individual ants impacted traffic as a whle. And they fund that when ants sense vercrwding, they adjust their speeds and avid entering high-density areas, which prevents jams. These behavirs may be prmted by phermnes, chemicals that tell ther ants where a trail is. The ants als manage t avid clliding (碰撞) with each ther at high densities, which culd really slw them dwn.
Can ants help us slve ur wn traffic prblems? Nt likely. That's because when it cmes t getting frm pint A t pint B as fast as pssible, human drivers put their wn gals first. Individual ants have t be mre cperative in rder t feed the clny. But the research culd be useful in imprving traffic flw fr self-driving cars, which can be designed t be less like selfish humans—and mre like ants.
32. What des the underlined wrd "this" in paragraph 2 refer t?
A. Surviving.
B. Cmmuting.
C. Finding fd.
D. Aviding jams.
33. Hw did the researchers cntrl the traffic density f the cmmuting ants?
A. Thrugh clser bservatin.
B. By regulating their numbers.
C. By finding ut the dense pints.
D. By cntrlling the widths f their path.
34. Hw can ants avid traffic jam accrding t the research?
A. They fllw a special rute.
B. They level ff at high densities.
C. They never stp r slw dwn n the way.
D. They depend n their natural chemicals t adjust their speeds.
35. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Traffic jams
B. Survival f an ant clny
