Planes. 【解析】選A。Ⅳ. 閱讀理解A　　“Birds” and “airports” are two words that, paired together, don’t normally paint the most harmonious picture. So it really raises some eyebrows when China announces plans to build an airport that is for birds. Described as the world’s firstever bird airport, the proposed Lingang Bird Sanctuary(保護(hù)區(qū))in the northern coastal city of Tianjin is, of course, not an actual airport. Rather, it’s a wetland preserve specifically designed to acmodate hundreds even thousands of daily takeoffs and landings by birds traveling along the East AsianAustralian Flyway. Over 50 species of migratory (遷徙的)water birds, some endangered, will stop and feed at the protected sanctuary before continuing their long journey along the flyway. Located on a former landfill site, the 150acre airport is also open to human travelers. (Half a million visitors are expected annually. ) However, instead of dutyfree shopping, the main attraction for nonegglaying creatures at Tianjin’s newest airport will be a greenroofed education and research center, a series of raised “observation platforms” and a network of scenic walking and cycling paths totaling over 4 miles. 6.
