1.Bees seem to fly aimlessly as they search for the sugary liquid called nectar (花蜜).But their flight plans actually do have a pattern.Flowers act as the insects' air-traffic controllers.And new research shows bees prefer flowers that aren't too flashy.
Flowers give bees clues about how much a plant can offer.Those clues can be in the color of petals,in the type,in the smell or even in the electrical charge.All of these characteristics send signals to the bees,telling them whether to land or not,among which the colors play the most significant role.The insects keep track of the color of the flowers that are especially rich in nectar.They then visit more flowers of that color.
However,color can't guarantee bees a good meal.It may change depending on the angle at which sunlight hits its petals.A yellow follower,for example,may look somewhat blue from one angle and red from another.Beverley Glover studies plants at the University of Cambridge in England.Glover and her colleagues showed that even when the color of petals looks similar,bees behave differently in searching for nectar.They started to guess that the strength of petals' indescence (色彩斑斕) might be related to how bees find the petals.
Glover and her colleagues tested their hypothesis in the lab.In their experiment,they found that bees felt confused sometimes when the petals were very iridescent and that bees had no problem finding the flowers with more nectar when the petals were not very iridescent.The team shared its new findings in the March 21 Current Biology.
"At first glance,it's very surprising because animals can usually detect a more vivid signal more easily,"says Klaus Lunau,a biologist in Germany,who was not involved in the study.

2. Only a "cloud" away is how residents at the Dzilam reserve in Mexico think of the distance between Latin America and China,despite their geographical remoteness.
The "cloud" isn't the one hanging up in the sky.What the residents refer to is in fact cloud technology,which has been applied to wildlife conservation in this Mexican reserve.
In recent years,with cloud technology,technicians and ecologists from China and its trans-Pacific partners have been able to work hand in hand under the Belt and Road Initiative to protect endangered species and their habitats in Mexico.
Home to many endangered species in Mexico,the Dzilam reserve,known for its biodiversity-rich habitats,has started to witness ecosystem degradation (衰退) over the years due to human activities and climate change.In 2002,the jaguar,the only big cat left in the reserve,was listed as "Near Threatened" on the IUCN Red List.
Local communities and environmentalists have tried to track the habitat of jaguars,but have found it rather difficult:These animals are often hidden in vast forests,rarely leaving obvious traces,making it hard to observe them under natural conditions.
To better protect wild animals and biodiversity,the Tech4 Nature Mexico project was launched in the Dzilam reserve.The project collects video data from cameras recording 24 hours a day in the Dzilam reserve to monitor the biodiversity of the area and uses acoustic (聲學的) technology to understand the existence of species and the health of ecosystems.The research team would use Huawei's Al model to identify the areas where the big cat appeared by identifying sounds,studying their living habits and developing management plans to protect the species.In addition,when a threat is detected,the system immediately sends a real-time alarm with the location to local forest guards through an app for rapid intervention.
From September 2022 to May 2023,local experts,with the help of Huawei Cloud,have identified 119 species in the Dzilam reserve,including 88 species of birds,22 species of mammals,five species of reptiles and four species of amphibians,of which 34 species are on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.They have also spotted at least five jaguars in the reserve.
Omelia Trejo,a resident of the Dzilam community,said their dream is "protecting jaguars for a lifetime," but they worried that in the future,children might only see jaguars in photos. "Thanks to this project,our dream has come true."
(1)What does the underlined word "cloud" in paragraph 1 refer to?
A.A typical weather phenomenon.
B.A networked computing technology.
C.The cloud above the Dzilam reserve.
D.The distance from Mexico to China.
(2)What makes it difficult to track jaguars in the Dzilam reserve?
A.Lack of local community's support.
B.Disapproval from environmentalists.
C.A few clearly recognizable tracks.
D.Challenges in natural observation.
(3)What does the writer intend to convey in paragraph 7?
A.The urgent need for conservation.
B.The challenges of species protection.
C.The success of Tech4 Nature Mexico project.
D.The diversity of species in the Dzilam reserve.
(4)What is the resident's attitude towards the Tech4 Nature Mexico project?
A.Positive.
B.Doubtful.
C.Unconcerned.
D.Neutral.組卷:2引用:1難度:0.5 -

4. In today's digital age when you can get information in a blink of an eye,there is a concern about children developing an appreciation for reading printed books.That's why communities in Australia have come up with a way to spread a love of books in the younger generations.
Communities have dealt with this problem by bringing libraries to where the kids are,in the streets.The little libraries are made of weatherproof boxes that are set up outside of houses or public spaces and are filled with books.People can take books they haven't read and donate ones they have to the libraries.
Street Library Australia,nonprofit,was started by Nick Lowe after he saw a Little Free Library in a trip to the US.In 2015 it planned to build 30 libraries,the idea mushroomed and now there are 4,500 registered street libraries in Australia. "It just grew and grew," Lowe said.
The libraries come in all shapes and sizes from reformed doll houses to old kitchen cupboards.They are completely voluntary and anyone can start one.Pamela Zielke who runs a library called Pam's Pantry gives out toys and craft supplies along with books.As an early childhood educator,she started her library with the goal of stopping books from ending up becoming waste.
But the libraries are doing much more than just providing books and other donated items to people.The street libraries are also building community."It's a little stopping place outside your house," Lowe said. "It's a great way to meet people in your neighborhood who are also booklovers,recycle books and find new books.But even more importantly,with a shared interest,the libraries are bringing communities closer together."
(1)How do communities in Australia develop children's love for books?
A.By borrowing good books from the libraries.
B.By providing book appreciation classes.
C.By exchanging books with one another.
D.By building libraries close to their homes.
(2)What does the underlined word"mushroomed" mean in Paragraph 3?
A.Became acceptable.
B.Grew fast.
C.Stayed current.
D.Changed slowly.
(3)What can we know about the street libraries?
A.They are set up voluntarily.
B.They have the same size and shape.
C.They bring owners many profits.
D.They' sell recycled toys and books.
(4)What does Lowe think of the street libraries?
A.They connect communities together.
B.They improve education of residents.
C.They save money on buying books.
D.They promote economic development.組卷:6引用:3難度:0.3

8.閱讀下面材料,根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段,使之構成一篇完整的短文。
Every afternoon,as they were coming from school,the children used to go and play in the Giant's garden.It was a large lovely garden,with soft green grass.The birds sat on the trees and sang.One day the Giant came back after visiting his friend.When he arrived he saw the children playing in the garden."What are you doing here?"he cried in a very gruff(粗啞) voice,and the children ran away.
"My own garden is my own garden,"said the Giant,"I will allow nobody to play in it but myself."So he built a high wall all round it,and put up a notice board—INVADER WILL BE ACCUSED.
Then the Spring came,and all over the country there were little blossoms and little birds.Only in the garden of the Giant it was still winter.The birds did not care to sing in it as there were no children,and the trees forgot to blossom.
The only people who were pleased were the Snow and the Frost."Spring has forgotten this garden,"they cried,"so we will live here all the year round."The Snow covered up the grass with her great white cloak(披風),and the Frost painted all the trees silver."I cannot understand why the Spring is so late in coming,"said the Giant,as he sat at the window and looked out at his cold white garden.
The Spring never came,nor the Summer.It was always Winter there,and the Frost and the Snow danced about through the trees.One morning the Giant was lying awake in bed when he heard some lovely music.It sounded so sweet to his ears that he thought it must be the King's musicians passing by.It was really only a little linnet(紅雀) singing outside his window,but it was so long since he had heard a bird sing in his garden that it seemed to him to be the most beautiful music in the world."I believe the Spring has come at last,"said the Giant and he jumped out of be d to have a look outside.
