It also shows new ways to see how much people care about nature, and which species and areas might be the most effective targets for conservation. And not just birds. Mittermeier and his team surveyed nearly billion Wikipedia search records, for 32,000 species, across 245 languages. They also saw variable search rates for insects, horsetails and flowering plants. Seasonal trends seemed to be widespread in Wikipedia behavior for many species of plants and animals. An international team of researchers from the University of Oxford have found that the way people use the Internet is closely tied to the seasonal movements in the natural world. Their online species searches follow the patterns of seasonal animal migrations (遷徙).高一英語閱讀理解(科普環(huán)保)解題技巧及練習題一、高中英語閱讀理解科普環(huán)保類1.犇犇閱讀下面文章,然后從題中所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中,選出每個問題的最佳選項。 Migratory birds (候鳥) flood back to where they reproduce every spring. That migratory behavior is acpanied by some human behavior. In Englishlanguage Wikipedia (維基百科), the online searches for migratory species tend to increase in spring when those birds arrive in the United States, said the lead author John Mittermeier. This finding suggests new ways to monitor changes in the world39。 Mittermeier is encouraged by the search results. He mented, I think there39。re not interacting with native species anymore. And so in that sense, it was really exciting and quite unexpected for me to see people39。 Richard Grenyer, Associate Professor from the University of Oxford, says search data is useful to conservation biologists, By using these big data approaches, we can direct our attention towards the difficult questions in modern conservation: which species and areas are changing, and where are the people who care the most and can do the most to help.(1)What have researchers found about species searches? strengthen ties among people. affect the animal movements. differ in language backgrounds. reflect animal migration seasons.(2)What is the purpose of writing Paragraph 3? summarize the research process. further support the research findings. show the variety of species searches. present researchers39。s service. about Wikipedia behavior. at people39。s not getting close to nature.(4)Why does Richard think such search data is useful? helps to aim at conservation targets. increases interest in big data approaches. keeps track of trends in biologists39。他們的在線物種搜索遵循季節(jié)性動物遷徙的模式。它還展示了一種新的方式來了解人們有多關心自然,以及哪些物種和地區(qū)可能是最有效的保護目標。根據(jù)第一段中的“Their online species searches follow the patterns of seasonal animal migrations (遷徙).”可知關于物種搜索,研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)了他們遵循季節(jié)性動物遷徙的模式。 (2)考查推理判斷。即第三段的寫作目的是為了進一步支持研究結果。 (3)考查細節(jié)理解。s Wikipedia interest closely related to changes in nature”可知Mittermeier看到人們對維基百科的興趣是與大自然的變化密切相關的,感到非常興奮和意外。 (4)考查細節(jié)理解。即他認為這些搜索數(shù)據(jù)可以有助于設定保護目標。 【點評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查,是一篇科研類閱讀,要求考生在捕捉細節(jié)信息的基礎上,根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理,從而選出正確答案。 The findings contradict research published earlier this year showing that returning adult children trigger a significant decline in their parents39。 The young adults taking part in the study were more positive than might have been expected about moving back home—the shame is reduced as so many of their peers are in the same position, and they acknowledged the benefits of their parents39。 Parents on the whole were more uncertain, expressing concern about the likely duration of the arrangement and how to manage it. But they acknowledged that things were different for graduates today, who leave university with huge debts and fewer job opportunities. However, the study says, daytoday tensions about the prospects of achieving different dimensions of independence, which in a few extreme cases came close to conflict, characterised the experience of a majority of parents and a little over half the graduates.Boomerang children made their parents happier.B.s return.C. quality of life became worse than before.D.causeB.ariseD.They are ashamed of turning to their parents for help.B.They are doubtful about whether they should return.D.The chi
