Whetherhuntingorcompetingfor limited spaceand resources,humans aretheplanet’s superpredator (捕食者). As thehumanpopulation expands,it’s gettingharderforother creatures tofind
somewhere tohideduring theday. Nownewfindings indicate animals around the world have come
up with another strategy: Theyarebecomingnocturnal(夜间活动的).
Inapaperpublished inScience,researchers analyzed 76 previous scientific studies about human
impact on animal activity. Theycomparedanimals’activityduringthedayandnightinareasofhighhumandisturbance (fromhunting orfarming to hiking and other outdoorrecreation)and low humandisturbance (relatively natural conditions). The analysisshowed animals are becoming an average of 1.36times more nocturnal due to high human disturbance.
For example,inPoland wildboarsgofrom 48% nocturnalinnaturalforeststo90% nocturnalinurban areas. Evenactivitiespeopleconsiderrelativelyinnocuous, suchashikingandwildlifeviewing, stronglyaffectedanimals’dailyrhythms.“We think that we’re leavingno traceoftenwhenwe’reoutdoors,but wecanbehavinglastingconsequencesonanimalbehavior,”says Kaitlyn Gaynor,lead researcherforthestudy.
This isnot the first timeanimalshavehad to liveat night;duringthetimeofdinosaurs,theywerealsonocturnal. “Dinosaurswere this ubiquitous(无处不在的),scary force,and only aftertheirextinction did mammals (哺乳动物)emerge into the daylight,” Gaynor says. “And now humanshave taken over and are pushing other animals backintothenight.”
Scientistssuspect becomingnocturnalmayhurtthose species highly adaptedtothe sun.Theymight not beable to livewell at night,whichwouldultimatelyhurttheir chances of survivalandreproduction. Perhapsevenmorealarmingeffects couldbe inthe wider ecosystem.InCalifornia’sSantaCruzMountains,coyoteshavebeenmorenocturnalinresponse tohikers andhave startedtoalter their diets fromdaytimeprey,suchassquirrelsandbirds,tonocturnalprey,such as rats andrabbits.
Exactlyhowecological communitieswill change,andwhether itwillbe for better or worse,requires further study. Somenighttime shifts maybenefitboth animals andhumans,Gaynornotes.Forinstance,tigersinNepalareavoidingpotentiallydeadlyconflictswithpeopleas theybecome morenocturnal.
Studies like thisonewill eventuallyhelpconservationmanagersmakebetter decisionsabouthow toprotect ecosystems. “We’llneedtounderstandlocaldynamics toreallyunderstandhowweshouldbechangingmanagement ofwildlifepopulations or humanactivities,”Gaynor notes,“Onepotential approachmight be tomanage the timingofhuman activities sothatwe leave some ofthe
daylightforotheranimals.”
28．How do animals respond to increasing human disturbance?
A.Bylimitingfoodintake. B. By leaving their habitat.
C.Bycontrollingpopulation. D. By adjusting daily routine.
29．What does the underlined word “innocuous” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Harmless.B.Recreational.C.Organized.D.Irregular.
30．Why does the author mention dinosaurs?
A.Tohighlighttheimportanceofdaylight.B.Toindicatethedisturbanceofhumans.
C. To illustratemammals’adaptability.D.Todemonstratedinosaurs’power.
31．What can we learn about animals’ becoming nocturnal?
A. It has led to a newecologicalbalance.B.Itdemandsmoreconservationareas.
C.Itmayencouragebio-diversity.D.It might be double-edged.

China’shistoric23-dayChang’e-5missionhasnot only obtained precious rocks and soil samples from themoon,but hasalsobroughtback a groupof seeds thattraveledthe furthestinthe nation’sagricultural and forestryhistories.Morethan 30 kinds ofseeds,including rice,oatsetc.,were placed insidethemulti-moduleChang’e-5 spacecraft and orbited around the moon for about 15 days.
Scientists wished to check what would happen to theseedsafterbeingexposedtoextraterrestrial (地球外的)forces inlunar orbitand also hoped thatthey could develop beneficialmutations(突变).Thismissionofferedgoodopportunities to scientists,which enabled themto deepen their studies on theeffectofcosmic rays on the growth and evolution of life on Earth.
Space-basedmutation breeding refersto the process of exposing seedsto forcessuch asmicrogravity,vacuums and cosmicradiationduringaspaceflightandthensendingthembacktoEarth for further observationandplanting. Researchersobserve and examine several generations of plantsgrown from space-bred seeds and investigatetheir mutations—somearepositiveanddesirable whileothersarenegative. Thosewith positive mutations will be kept and analyzed,and will be introduced tofarmers after their certification and approval.
Spacebreedingcangeneratemutationsfaster and more conveniently than ground-based experimentsandcanbring about some desirable traits that are otherwise hard to introduce.
Comparedwithnatural orconventionallybredtypes of plants,space-developedversions withpositivemutationsusuallyfeaturehighernutritionalcontent,greater annualyields,shorter growth periodsandbetterresistanceto diseases and insect pests.
China conducted its first spacebreedingexperimentin1987,usingasatellitetocarryseedsintospace. Sincethen,hundredsofkindsofseedsandseedlingshave traveledwithdozensof Chinesespaceships.
