Canaries, a kind f small yellw sngbirds, are mre sensitive t carbn mnxide (CO) than peple are. Thus they were rutinely taken int mines as men went abut their wrk f mining fr cal. CO culd quickly pisn many miners befre they even knew what was happening. If a canary stpped singing, this was an indicatr f rising CO levels. Nw eclgists think they’ve fund a “canary” that culd predict pssible disaster fr trpical (热带的) ecsystems—the cricket (a small brwn jumping insect).
Crickets are tiny, present in large numbers and, mst imprtantly, nisy. The chirps (唧唧叫声) f individual species are identifiably different. Researchers had previusly wndered if ecsystems might be mnitred by listening t hw the sunds f their crickets change ver time.
Amandine Gasc and her clleagues studied cricket ppulatins n Grande Terre Island in New Calednia, where multiple ecsystems ften exist very near t each ther. They cllected crickets at 12 sampling sites. Fur were healthy frest sites, fur were shrubland (灌木地) areas, which is ften created when peple cut dwn frests, and fur were shrubland areas that were turning int frests again. They listened fr insects in square znes and ran ten 30-minute cllectin sessins at each site.
Dr. Gasc described hw each ecsystem had, in effect, a distinct “cricket fingerprint”. Species richness varies cnsiderably amng the different envirnments. Of the 20 cricket species fund in the healthy frest, 12 were unique t that habitat alne, 2 f the 15 species fund in transitining frests were unique t this habitat and 3 f the 7 shrubland species were unique t shrubland.
Just by lking at the crickets fund in a given lcatin, the team fund that it was pssible t determine whether they were lking at shrubland, frest r shrubland that was changing int the frest. There was n need t examine the ther surrunding plants r animals.
What’s mre, Dr. Gasc’s team fund each habitat cntained cricket species that generated their identifiable chirps. This suggests that setting up audi recrders in frests that pick up cricket calls will be an easy, cheap and accurate way t detect the early stages f change in trpical ecsystems.
46．Why did miners take the canary int mines?
A. T bring dwn CO levels.
B. T prmte their wrk efficiency.
C. T ffer them sme entertainment.
D. T remind them f the ptential danger.
47．Hw did Dr. Gasc and her clleagues carry ut their study?
A. By analyzing “cricket fingerprints”.
B. By cmparing plants in different znes.
C. By bserving the changes in landscapes.
D. By referring t previus findings n crickets.
48．What cnclusin may Dr. Gasc and her clleagues draw frm their study?
A. Healthy frests may attract fitter crickets.
B. Crickets are suitable t be indicatrs in mines.
C. Different species f crickets may sund different alarms.
D. The species f crickets are strngly related t the envirnment.
49．What’s the pint f Dr. Gasc’s studying crickets?
A. T enrich the methds f mnitring the crickets.
B. T aruse peple’s awareness f prtecting crickets.
C. T crrect the previus wrng recgnitin f crickets.
D. T help humans easily mnitr envirnmental changes.
50．Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
A. Canaries: miners’ gd helpers.
B. Hw crickets are distributed in trpical areas.

Reading is a cmplex and crucial skill that impacts the yuth’s ability t perfrm as students. Therefre, it’s imprtant t develp reading skills during childhd. A team f researchers fcused n the effect f whle-bdy learning in instructin, knwn as embdied learning.
The research included 149 children, aged 5 t 6, wh had just started schl. They were divided int three grups: ne that std up and used their whle bdies t shape letter sunds; a seated grup that shaped letter sunds with their hands and arms; and a cntrl grup that received traditinal, seated instructin during which they wrte letters by hand.
“Our research shwed that children wh used their whle bdies t shape the sunds f letters became twice as prficient at letter sunds that are mre difficult t learn as thse wh received traditinal instructin” says PhD student Linn Damsgaard f UCPH’s Department f Nutritin, Exercise and Sprts.
With regard t difficult letter sunds, she adds, “There are many difficult letter sunds in Danish. These sunds are particularly imprtant because nce children becme skilled at them, they will be better readers.
Assciate prfessr Jacb Wienecke, wh led the study, explains, the primary gal is t learn mre abut which methds can be used t give beginner readers a gd start. The idea is that if, thrugh play and mvement, we can learn where their strengths truly lie, we’ll create a frm f learning that cmbines reading with play, and that’s truly psitive.”
Previusly, the researchers shwed that the children felt mre mtivated by teaching methds which included physical mvement. Jacb Wienecke hpes this will prvide an pprtunity t inspire teachers and schl managers t priritize mvement acrss subjects.
The study als investigated whether a direct effect f embdied learning culd be fund n children’s reading f wrds. This was nt pssible, which might be due t the fact that the children were at such an early stage f their literacy develpment that they culd nt yet use their knwledge f letter sunds t read wrds.
51．What were the participants required t d in the study?
A. T pick ut difficult letter sunds in Danish.
B. T learn new letters thrugh repeated writing.
C. T learn letter sunds using different appraches.
D. T memrize sme letter sunds as sn as pssible.
52．Hw can embdied learning get children actively invlved?
A. By cmbining learning with games.
B. By ffering them chances t cperate.
C. By inspiring them t vercme difficulties.
D. By explaining instructins t them patiently.
53．What des the underlined wrd “prficient” in Paragraph 3 prbably mean?

54．What des Jacb expect f the research finding?
A. Encuraging educatrs t apply it t teaching.
B. Enabling researchers t carry ut further studies.

In 2019, the state f Califrnia was n fire. Alexandria Villaser, wh was 13 at the time, witnessed the destructin f Nrthern Califrnia’s Camp Fire, which wuld g n t burn mre than 150,000 acres f land. Villaser was scared. “That’s when I fund ut hw imprtant climate educatin was,” she reflected. “And just hw much we lacked climate educatin these past cuple f years.”
Villaser, at the age f 15, was determined t have a bigger cnversatin. She quickly realized the fight requires internatinal, gvernment-level changes. Fr her, what started as lcal cncern turned int a year-lng prtest in frnt f the United Natins’ New Yrk City headquarters and a glbal campaign fr mre cmpulsry climate educatin. She sat n a bench in frnt f the headquarters, begging fr the wrld’s leaders t take climate change seriusly.
Her actin received natinal attentin, with millins f ther students arund the wrld jining in the mvement. “It’s cmpletely unacceptable nt t learn anything abut ur planet and ur envirnment in schl, after all the yung peple wuld inherit the Earth.” Villaser said, “That’s why I think that climate educatin is s imprtant, and that’s why I fcus a lt n it nw.”
