Professor Carl Jones won the 2016 Indianapolis Prize the highest accolade in the field of animal conservation for his 40 years of work in Mauritius, where he saved an endangered kestrel from being the next Great Auk. When the 61yearold first travelled to the east African island in the 1970s, he was told to close down a project to save the Mauritius kestrel. At the time there were just four left in the wild, making it the rarest bird on Earth. However, he stayed, using the techniques of captive breeding (人工繁殖), which involved snatching eggs from the birds39。 nests and hatching(孵化)them under incubators, prompting the mothers to lay another set of eggs in the wild. A decade later, the number of Mauritius kestrels had soared to over 300 and today there are around 400 in the wild. The biologist has also been necessary in efforts to bring other rare species back from the edge of extinction, including the pink pigeon, echo parakeet and Rodrigues warbler. Prof Jones was awarded the $250,000 (163。172,000) prize at a ceremony in London.As a young man in my 20s, I certainly didn39。t enjoy the stress and the tension of the criticism I received, reflecting on the start of his career, he said the Maurutius kestrel project had been seen as a dead loss at the time. In the 1970s there was fierce opposition to the captive breeding techniques, with critics arguing that they were too risky and took the emphasis off breeding in the wild. Prof Jones has devoted his whole life to his work, only being a father for the first time eight years ago, at 53. He said receiving the prize was particularly important to him, because it proved that his work to save birds was right.（1）What does the underlined word accolade mean in Paragraph 2?

A.an endangered birdB.an extinct birdC.a popular birdD.a fierce bird（3）What can we know from the figures in Paragraph 4?
