The Merriam-Webster dictinary puts it simply: “birdbrain: a stupid persn”. Well, sme birds are having the last laugh with that ne.
Fr animals, the ability t slve prblems with multiple tls is a rare talent, which was reprted nly in chimpanzees (大猩猩). But nw, a study cnducted by Osuna-Mascaró’s team adds Gffin’s cckats (small white parrts)t the “Dean’s List”, t.
Inspired by the chimpanzees which fish fr white ants via tls, the team tasked the cckats with fishing fr a kind f nu t in three experiments. Firstly, the researchers made a bx cntaining a nut which was cvered by a transparent membrane (薄膜). Once a cckat brke it thrugh with a sharp stick, the bird wuld need t use a straw (麦秆) t reach the nut. The birds were supplied with the tw tls.
Seven f the 10 cckats figured it ut, with tw cmpleting the task within 35secnds n their first attempt! Since the cckats dn’t have similar fraging (觅食的) requirements in the wild, there is n chance that they can adapt their tl-using strategies t the task naturally.
Next, the team mixed up the bxes and randmly presented each bird with a bx with the membrane r a bx withut. The birds were given the same tw tls. As a result, all the cckats mastered the test quickly and were able t recgnize when a single tl was sufficient and when tw tls were required.
Hwever, the birds shwed an interesting behavir beynd the researchers’ expectatins. “When they chse between which tl t use, they were picking ne up, releasing it, then picking up the ther ne, and s n,” says Osuna-Mascaró. “It is wrthwhile t figure this ut in future.”
Subsequently, the researchers evaluated the birds’ transprtatin ability while carrying tls in different situatins. Mst cckats carried the tw tls tgether when they were presented with a bx having the membrane. “I’ve seen birds cmbining bjects playfully, but they rarely transprt mre than ne bject tgether in their nrmal behavir,” says ne bilgist. “We feel that, in terms f technical cgnitin and tl use, birds have been underestimated. Maybe it’s time fr dictinary editrs t justify birds.”
8. What is the cmmn feature f the animals in the “Dean’s List”?
A. Exceptinal scial behavir.
B. The ability t recgnize bjects.
C. Strng adaptability t the envirnment.
D. The intelligence t use tls purpsefully.
9. What’s the purpse f emplying membrane in the first experiment?
A. T prevent the nut frm falling ff.
B. T pse a challenge t the cckats.
C. T increase the visual appeal f the bx.
D. T encurage cmpetitin amng the cckats.
10. What can we learn abut the cckats frm the secnd experiment?
A. They can emply tls crrespndingly.
B. They can identify the rder f the bxes.
C They can memrize the lcatin f each nut.
D. They can priritize the bxes with the membrane.
11. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Hw d Gffin’s cckats use tls in the wild?
B. Why did we use t underestimate birds’ intelligence?
C. Gffin’s cckats beat ff chimpanzees in using tls
D. Gffin’s cckats break dwn the “birdbrain” prejudice

I read a lt f nnfictin, mstly bks abut current issues. The tpics vary but mst f the bks share a cmmn feature. When I cme t the last chapter — the ne where slutins are suppsed t be ffered — I’m usually left disappinted. Mst authrs fall back n “I’ve laid ut the prblem, yu fix it.” When slutins are ffered, they usually call fr strng actin by the gvernment, which, these days, is useless.
S I was excited when I recently read Jnathan Haidt’s new bk, The Anxius Generatin: Hw the Great Rewiring f Childhd is Causing an Epidemic f Mental Illness.
Haidt, a scial psychlgist frm New Yrk University, shws hw the play-based childhd began t decline in the 1980s, and hw it was finally wiped ut by the arrival f the phne-based childhd in the early 2010s. As teens traded in their flip phnes (翻盖手机) fr smartphnes packed with scial media apps, time nline sared while time engaging face-t-face with friends and family dived.
He presents mre than a dzen mechanisms by which this great rewiring f childhd has interfered with children’s scial and neurlgical develpment, cvering everything frm addictin t lneliness, scial cmparisn, and perfectinism.
What stands ut in Haidt’s bk is his cmmitment — alng with many ther educatrs, parents and cmmunity grups — t addressing the shrtage f free play and the excess f scial media. This eye-pening bk is a pwerful call-t-arms, ffering practical advice fr parents, schls, gvernments, and teens themselves. Slutins range frm parents setting limits n their children’s use f smartphnes, t grups f parents cperating s their children wn’t feel rejected by kids living in a phne-centered wrld.
T all the lcal schls, parents and agencies already wrking t let kids be kids, I say thanks, and keep up the gd wrk. T everyne else interested in the subject, I urge yu t read Haidt’s bk and check ut the many resurces and grups he cites. If peple dn’t push fr change, then tech cmpanies driven by data cllectin and ad revenue (收入) will cntinue t rule kids’ lives, rather than parents and lcal cmmunities.
12. Why d mst bks abut current issues disappint the authr?
A. They explre the same tpic.
B. They justify gvernment actins.
C. They fail t ffer practical slutins.
D. They lack a full review f the situatin.
13. The underlined part in paragraph 4 means the shift in kids’ energy and attentin frm ______.
A. flip phnes t smart nes
B. the physical wrld t the virtual ne
C. academic studies t stylish entertainments
D. ver-prtected childhd t care-free adulthd
14. What is the highlight f The Anxius Generatin?
A. It ffers fresh insight int scial media.
B. Its cntent is well received by children.
C. It will influence cllective decisin-making.
D. Its authr suggests ways t fix the prblems.
15. What des the authr intend t d in the last paragraph?
A. Issue a warning.B. Recmmend a bk.
C. Express gratitude.D. Present an argument.

(1940 年，罗伯特偶然发现了一本鲜为人知的匿名 18 世纪中国小说，这本小说将他的职业生涯推向了一条意想不到的道路，并让他获得了从未预料到的公众名声。这本名为《武则天统治时期的四大奇案》的小说虚构了中国传统侦探小说英雄之一狄仁杰的事迹，故事背景设定在 7 世纪的唐朝。罗伯特对这本小说十分着迷，他不仅将这本小说翻译成英文，还对中国刑法史和当时其他法律文献做了一些研究。直到 1949 年，罗伯特才得以出版他的译作《狄公案：狄仁杰破获的三起谋杀案》。罗伯特的中国悬疑小说包括 10 多部小说和短篇小说集，记录了中国侦探狄仁杰的职业生涯。有趣的是，这些故事首先在东方版本中成名，然后于 1957 年被翻译成英文)”可知，Rbert把中国文学传播给了更广泛的受众导致罗伯特名声大噪。故选C项。

The Merriam-Webster dictinary puts it simply: “birdbrain: a stupid persn”. Well, sme birds are having the last laugh with that ne.
Fr animals, the ability t slve prblems with multiple tls is a rare talent, which was reprted nly in chimpanzees (大猩猩). But nw, a study cnducted by Osuna-Mascaró’s team adds Gffin’s cckats (small white parrts)t the “Dean’s List”, t.
Inspired by the chimpanzees which fish fr white ants via tls, the team tasked the cckats with fishing fr a kind f nu t in three experiments. Firstly, the researchers made a bx cntaining a nut which was cvered by a transparent membrane (薄膜). Once a cckat brke it thrugh with a sharp stick, the bird wuld need t use a straw (麦秆) t reach the nut. The birds were supplied with the tw tls.
Seven f the 10 cckats figured it ut, with tw cmpleting the task within 35secnds n their first attempt! Since the cckats dn’t have similar fraging (觅食的) requirements in the wild, there is n chance that they can adapt their tl-using strategies t the task naturally.
Next, the team mixed up the bxes and randmly presented each bird with a bx with the membrane r a bx withut. The birds were given the same tw tls. As a result, all the cckats mastered the test quickly and were able t recgnize when a single tl was sufficient and when tw tls were required.
Hwever, the birds shwed an interesting behavir beynd the researchers’ expectatins. “When they chse between which tl t use, they were picking ne up, releasing it, then picking up the ther ne, and s n,” says Osuna-Mascaró. “It is wrthwhile t figure this ut in future.”
Subsequently, the researchers evaluated the birds’ transprtatin ability while carrying tls in different situatins. Mst cckats carried the tw tls tgether when they were presented with a bx having the membrane. “I’ve seen birds cmbining bjects playfully, but they rarely transprt mre than ne bject tgether in their nrmal behavir,” says ne bilgist. “We feel that, in terms f technical cgnitin and tl use, birds have been underestimated. Maybe it’s time fr dictinary editrs t justify birds.”
8. What is the cmmn feature f the animals in the “Dean’s List”?
A. Exceptinal scial behavir.
B. The ability t recgnize bjects.
C. Strng adaptability t the envirnment.
D. The intelligence t use tls purpsefully.
9. What’s the purpse f emplying membrane in the first experiment?
A. T prevent the nut frm falling ff.
B. T pse a challenge t the cckats.
C. T increase the visual appeal f the bx.
D. T encurage cmpetitin amng the cckats.
10. What can we learn abut the cckats frm the secnd experiment?
A. They can emply tls crrespndingly.
B They can identify the rder f the bxes.
C. They can memrize the lcatin f each nut.
D. They can priritize the bxes with the membrane.
11. Which f the fllwing is the best title fr the text?
A. Hw d Gffin’s cckats use tls in the wild?
B. Why did we use t underestimate birds’ intelligence?
C. Gffin’s cckats beat ff chimpanzees in using tls
D. Gffin’s cckats break dwn the “birdbrain” prejudice
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要讲述了一项研究，该研究发现Gffin’s cckats（一种小型白色鹦鹉）具有使用工具解决问题的智能，这种智能在动物中非常罕见，此前只有大猩猩被报道具有这种能力。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Fr animals, the ability t slve prblems with multiple tls is a rare talent, which was reprted nly in chimpanzees (大猩猩). But nw, a study cnducted by Osuna-Mascaró’s team adds Gffin’s cckats (small white parrts)t the “Dean’s List”, t.（对于动物来说，使用多种工具解决问题的能力是一种罕见的才能，这种才能只在大猩猩中被报道过。但现在，Osuna-Mascaró的团队也将Gffin’s cckats（一种小型白色鹦鹉）加入了“Dean’s List”中。）”可知，Dean’s List中的动物共同特征是具有使用工具解决问题的智能。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Firstly, the researchers made a bx cntaining a nut which was cvered by a transparent membrane (薄膜). Once a cckat brke it thrugh with a sharp stick, the bird wuld need t use a straw (麦秆) t reach the nut.（首先，研究人员制作了一个装有坚果的盒子，上面覆盖着一层透明膜。一旦凤头鹦鹉用一根锋利的棍子把它撬开，它就需要用一根麦秆去够坚果。）”可知，薄膜的存在是为了给鹦鹉提供挑战，使它们需要使用工具才能够到坚果。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“As a result, all the cckats mastered the test quickly and were able t recgnize when a single tl was sufficient and when tw tls were required.（结果，所有的鹦鹉都很快掌握了测试，并能够识别出何时一个工具就足够，何时需要两个工具。）”可知，鹦鹉能够根据情况选择使用工具。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容以及最后一段“We feel that, in terms f technical cgnitin and tl use, birds have been underestimated. Maybe it’s time fr dictinary editrs t justify birds.（我们认为，在技术认知和工具使用方面，鸟类被低估了。也许是时候让词典编辑为鸟类正名了）”可知，文章主要讲述了Gffin’s cckats（一种小型白色鹦鹉）具有使用工具解决问题的智能，这种智能在动物中非常罕见，此前只有大猩猩被报道具有这种能力，这打破了人们对鸟的脑袋的偏见。所以短文的最佳标题为“Gffin’s cckats打破了“鸟的脑袋”的偏见”。故选D。

I read a lt f nnfictin, mstly bks abut current issues. The tpics vary but mst f the bks share a cmmn feature. When I cme t the last chapter — the ne where slutins are suppsed t be ffered — I’m usually left disappinted. Mst authrs fall back n “I’ve laid ut the prblem, yu fix it.” When slutins are ffered, they usually call fr strng actin by the gvernment, which, these days, is useless.
S I was excited when I recently read Jnathan Haidt’s new bk, The Anxius Generatin: Hw the Great Rewiring f Childhd is Causing an Epidemic f Mental Illness.
Haidt, a scial psychlgist frm New Yrk University, shws hw the play-based childhd began t decline in the 1980s, and hw it was finally wiped ut by the arrival f the phne-based childhd in the early 2010s. As teens traded in their flip phnes (翻盖手机) fr smartphnes packed with scial media apps, time nline sared while time engaging face-t-face with friends and family dived.
He presents mre than a dzen mechanisms by which this great rewiring f childhd has interfered with children’s scial and neurlgical develpment, cvering everything frm addictin t lneliness, scial cmparisn, and perfectinism.
What stands ut in Haidt’s bk is his cmmitment — alng with many ther educatrs, parents and cmmunity grups — t addressing the shrtage f free play and the excess f scial media. This eye-pening bk is a pwerful call-t-arms, ffering practical advice fr parents, schls, gvernments, and teens themselves. Slutins range frm parents setting limits n their children’s use f smartphnes, t grups f parents cperating s their children wn’t feel rejected by kids living in a phne-centered wrld.
T all the lcal schls, parents and agencies already wrking t let kids be kids, I say thanks, and keep up the gd wrk. T everyne else interested in the subject, I urge yu t read Haidt’s bk and check ut the many resurces and grups he cites. If peple dn’t push fr change, then tech cmpanies driven by data cllectin and ad revenue (收入) will cntinue t rule kids’ lives, rather than parents and lcal cmmunities.
12. Why d mst bks abut current issues disappint the authr?
A. They explre the same tpic.
B. They justify gvernment actins.
C. They fail t ffer practical slutins.
D. They lack a full review f the situatin.
13. The underlined part in paragraph 4 means the shift in kids’ energy and attentin frm ______.
A. flip phnes t smart nes
B. the physical wrld t the virtual ne
C. academic studies t stylish entertainments
D. ver-prtected childhd t care-free adulthd
14. What is the highlight f The Anxius Generatin?
A. It ffers fresh insight int scial media.
B. Its cntent is well received by children.
C. It will influence cllective decisin-making.
D. Its authr suggests ways t fix the prblems.
15. What des the authr intend t d in the last paragraph?
A. Issue a warning.B. Recmmend a bk.
C. Express gratitude.D. Present an argument.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。本文一篇书评，作者首先阐述了对于当前问题书籍的看法，然后在文中介绍了Jnathan Haidt的新书《The Anxius Generatin: Hw the Great Rewiring f Childhd is Causing an Epidemic f Mental Illness.》并推荐大家阅读。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“When I cme t the last chapter — the ne where slutins are suppsed t be ffered — I’m usually left disappinted.”（当我读到最后一章——应该提供解决方案的地方——我通常感到失望。）可推知，作者对大多数关于当前问题的书籍感到失望的原因是它们没有提供实际的解决方案。故选C。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“As teens traded in their flip phnes (翻盖手机) fr smartphnes packed with scial media apps, time nline sared while time engaging face-t-face with friends and family dived.”（随着青少年放弃翻盖手机，转而使用装有社交媒体应用程序的智能手机，在线时间飙升，而与朋友和家人面对面交流的时间急剧下降。）可推知，孩子们的精力和注意力从现实世界转移到了虚拟世界；由此可知，“by which this great rewiring f childhdhas interfered with children’s scial and neurlgical develpment, cvering everything frm addictin t lneliness, scial cmparisn, and perfectinism”（by which this great rewiring f childhd干扰了儿童的社会和神经发育，涵盖了从上瘾到孤独，社会比较和完美主义的方方面面）中划线部分的意思是：孩子们的精力和注意力从现实世界转移到了虚拟世界。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段“This eye-pening bk is a pwerful call-t-arms, ffering practical advice fr parents, schls, gvernments, and teens themselves. Slutins range frm parents setting limits n their children’s use f smartphnes, t grups f parents cperating s their children wn’t feel rejected by kids living in a phne-centered wrld.”（这本令人大开眼界的书是一次强烈的呼吁，为父母、学校、政府和青少年自己提供了实用的建议。解决方案包括父母限制孩子使用智能手机，以及父母合作让孩子不会被生活在以手机为中心的世界里的孩子们所排斥。）可推知，《The Anxius Generatin》的亮点是作者提出了解决问题的方法。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“T everyne else interested in the subject, I urge yu t read Haidt’s bk and check ut the many resurces and grups he cites.”（对于其他对这个主题感兴趣的人，我强烈建议你阅读Haidt的书，并查看他引用的许多资源和小组。）可推知，作者在最后一段是要推荐一本书。故选B。
