travel guide.C.A history book.D.A science fiction.57.How does the writer recommend CHRONOLOGICA to readers?A.By giving details of its collection.B.By introducing some of its contents.C.By telling stories at the beginning.D.By comparing it with other books.B Before birth，babies can tell the difference between loud sounds and voices.They can even distinguish their mothers voice from that of a female stranger.But when it comes to embryonic learning(胎教)，birds could rule the roost.As recently reported in The Auk：Ornithological Advances，some mother birds may teach their young to sing even before they hatch(孵化).Newborn chicks can then imitate their moms call within a few days of entering the world.This educational method was first observed in 2012 by Sonia Kleindorfer，a biologist at Flinders University in South Australia，and her colleagues.Female Australian superb fairy wrens were found to repeat one sound over and over again while hatching their eggs.When the eggs were hatched，the baby birds made the similar chirp to their mothersa sound that served as their regular“feed me！”call.To find out if the special quality was more widespread in birds，the researchers sought the redbacked fairy wren，another species of Australian songbird.First they collected sound data from 67 nests in four sites in Queensland before and after hatching.Then they identified begging calls by analyzing the order and number of notes.A computer analysis blindly compared calls produced by mothers and chicks，ranking them by similarity.It turns out that baby redbacked fairy wrens also emerge chirping like their moms.And the more frequently mothers had called to their eggs，the more similar were the babies begging calls.In addition，the team set up a separate experiment that suggested that the baby birds that most closely imitated their moms voice were rewarded with the most food.This observation hints that effective embryonic learning could signal neurological(神 经 系 统 的)strengths of children to parents.An evolutionary inference can then be drawn.“As a parent，do you invest in quality children，or do you invest in children that are in need？”Kleindorfer asks.“Our results suggest that they might be going for quality.”58.The underlined phrase in Paragraph 1 means“”.A.be the worst B.be the best C.be just as bad D.be just as good 59.What are Kleindorfers findings based on?A.Similarities between the calls of moms and chicks.B.The observation of fairy wrens across Australia.C.The data collected from Queenslands locals.D.Controlled experiments on wrens and other birds.60.Embryonic learning helps mother birds to identify the baby birds which .A.can receive quality signals B.are in need of training C.fit the environment better D.make the loudest call C A new commodity brings about a highly profitable，fastgrowing industry，urging antitrust(反垄断)regulators to step in to check those who control its flow.A century ago，the resource in question was oil.Now similar concerns are being raised by the giants(巨头)that deal in data，the oil of the digital age.The most valuable firms are Google，Amazon，Facebook and Microsoft.All look unstoppable.Such situations have led to calls for the tech giants to be broken up.But size alone is not a crime.The giants success has benefited consumers.Few want to live without search engines or a quick delivery.Far from charging consumers high prices，many of these services are free(users pay，in effect，by handing over yet more data).And the appearance of newborn giants suggests that newcomers can make waves，too.But there is cause for concern.The internet has made data abundant，allpresent and far more valuable，changing the nature of data and competition.Google initially used the data collected from users to target advertising better.But recently it has discovered that data can be turned into new services：translation and visual recognition，to be sold to other companies.Internet companies control of data gives them enormous power.So they have a“Gods eye view”of activities in their own markets and beyond.This nature of data makes the antitrust measures of the past less useful.Breaking up firms like Google into five small ones would not stop remaking themselves：in time，one of them would become great again.A rethink is requiredand as a new approach starts to become apparent，two ideas stand out.The first is that antitrust authorities need to move from the industrial age into the 21st century.When considering a merger(兼并)，for example，they have traditionally used size to determine when to step in.They now need to take into account the extent of firms data assets(资产)when assessing the impact of deals.The purchase price could also be a signal that an established company is buying a newborn threat.When this takes place，especially when a newborn company has no revenue to speak of，the regulators should raise red flags.The second principle is to loosen the control that providers of online services have over data and give more to those who supply them.Companies could be forced to reveal to consumers what information they hold and how much money they make from it.Governments could order the sharing of certain kinds of data，with users consent.Restarting antitrust for the information age will not be easy.But if governments dont want a data economy controlled by a few giants，they must act soon.61.Why is there a call to break up giants?A.They have controlled the data market.B.They collect enormous private data.C.They no longer provide free services.D.They dismissed some newborn giants.62.What does the technological innovation in Paragraph 3 indicate?A.Data giants technology is very expensive.B.Googles idea is popular among data firms.C.Data can strengthen giants controlling position.D.Data can be turned into new services or products.63.By paying attention to firms data assets，antitrust regulators could .A.kill a new threat B.avoid the size trap C.favour bigger firms D.charge higher prices 64.What is the purpose of loosening the giants control of data?A.Big companies could relieve data security pressure.B.Governments could relieve their financial pressure.C.Consumers could better protect their privacy.D.Small companies could get more opportunities.D Old Problem，New Approaches While clean energy is increasingly used in our daily life，global warming will continue for some decades after CO2 emissions(排放)peak.So even if emissions were to begin to decrease today，we would still face the challenge of adapting to climate change.Here I will stress some smarter and more creative examples of climate adaptation.When it comes to adaptation，it is important to understand that climate change is a process.We are therefore not talking about adapting to a new standard，but to a constantly shifting set of conditions.This is why，in part at least，the US National Climate Assessment says that：“There is no onesize fits all adaptation.”Nevertheless，there are some actions that offer much and carry little risk or cost.Around the world，people are adapting in surprising ways，especially in some poor countries.Floods have become more damaging in Bangladesh in recent decades.Mohammed Rezwan saw opportunity where others saw only disaster.His notforprofit organization runs 100 river boats that serve as floating libraries，schools，and health clinics，and are equipped with solar panels and other communicating facilities.Rezwan is creating floating connectivity(连接)to replace flooded roads and highways.But he is also working at a far more fundamental level：his staff show people how to make floating gardens and fish ponds to prevent starvation during the wet season.Elsewhere in Asia even more astonishing actions are being taken.Chewang Norphel lives in a mountainous region in India，where he is known as the Ice Man.The loss of glaciers(冰川)there due to global warming represents an enormous threat to agriculture.Without the glaciers，water will arrive in the rivers at times when it can damage crops.Norphels inspirat
