And as they do with every oil spill, rescue workers will go to great lengths to capture and clean the survivors hoping to restore them to their natural habitat.t so sure. Because the stress of being captured and bathed is as significant as the horror of being immersed in oil, and because research suggests that many rescued birds die shortly after being released, some experts say euthanasia (安樂死) is a more humane option.t. Oil in particular makes feathers heavier and decreases their ability to trap air, which in turn makes birds weak and bee easier to drowning, overheating and organ damage. Of course, being captured and cleaned is no piic either. Some birds wind up returning to their destroyed habitats only to fall victim to the oil again. And those who manage to avoid a second oil bath suffer dramatically shortened life spans (跨度) and lower reproductive success. Of the thousands of birds that were rescued from the Prestige oil spill off the coast of Spain in 2002, only 600 were released into the wild。 However, bird rescuers say they have learned a lot about how to best help oilsoaked birds, and that therefore, survival rates stand to increase this time around. In the past, birds were cleaned right away, and volunteers often worked through the night bathing rescued birds. But now, captured birds are left to rest for a day or two before being cleaned, and only washed during the day, so as not to disrupt their circadian (生理的) rhythms. But part of that increase may be due to greater selectivity on the part of rescuers. The workers do blood tests right in the field now and birds that are loaded with hydrocarbons (碳氫化合物) or don39。re going to make it are put down right away, rather than subjected to the stress of captivity and cleaning. t good protocols (協(xié)議) for repairing the internal organ damage. Anyway, rescue efforts will continue in large part because the public demands that. Euthanasia is a difficult thing to do, especially for people who have built their lives around saving animals.（1）Why do some scientists doubt the effort to rescue oiled birds? it has cost too much time and money. human may be infected with the bird virus. it is torture followed by death to birds. migrant birds may broaden the pollution.（2）The case of Spain coast spill is mentioned to indicate ________. of birds were polluted by oil survival rate of oiled birds was very low efforts to rescue oiled birds were ineffective is an impractical method to rescue binds（3）Why do the survival rates of oiled birds increase? birds are kept in warm water for one or two days second cleaning of the oiled birds in daytime is not permitted rescuers often select the birds that are likely to survive are removed to rescue the oiled birds（4）Why does oiled birds39。 internal organ damage is permanent. is a difficult and heartaching operation. moredifficulttosave species will die by cleaning. rescue is oiled birds39。救援人員盡最大努力援救它們。一方面，獲救的鳥兒經(jīng)歷了被捕獲、被清理的痛苦之后還是會死去，存活率很低；另一方面，對鳥兒進行安樂死也是很多人不能接受的。根據(jù)第二段中的because research suggests that many rescued birds die shortly after being released因為研究表明許多獲救的鳥類在被釋放后不久就死亡了。 （2）考查推理判斷。 most of the rest died after just a few days in captivity”在2002年從西班牙海岸的Prestige石油泄漏事故中獲救的數(shù)千只鳥類中，只有600只被放生到野外；其余大部分在被關在籠中短短幾天后死亡。故選B。根據(jù)第四段中的“part of that increase may be due to greater selectivity on the part of rescuers. The workers do blood tests right in the field now and birds that are loaded with hydrocarbons (碳氫化合物) or don39。re going to make it are put down right away”可知，獲救的鳥兒存活率將會上升的部分原因可能是由于救援人員方面的做出了更大選擇。工人們選擇性地搶救那些有存活可能的鳥兒。 （4）考查推理判斷。所以是否救這些被油浸過的鳥兒還是一個有爭議的問題。故選D。5．閱讀理解 s bar.
