that migrating adult sparrows can find their way to their winter nesting grounds even after being thrown off course by thousands of miles.The team first brought 30 sparrows to Princeton from northern Washington State，where the birds had been in the process of migrating southward from their summer breeding grounds in Alaska.Half the birds were juveniles（少年）of about three months in age that had never migrated before，while the other half were adults that had made the round trip to their wintering site in the southwestern United States at least once.After the birds were released，they attempted to resume（重新开始）their migration，but both age groups grew disoriented（迷失方向的）quickly.“All the birds scattered at first，” Wikelski said.“It was clear that they were turned around for a couple of days.But while the adults eventually realized they had to head southwest，the younger birds resumed flying straight southward as though they were still inWashington.”“The adults，” said team member Richard Holland，“recovered their bearings because they possess something the younger birds do not，which is an internal map.”“These birds need two thin gs to know where they are and migrate effectively：a ‘map’ and a ‘compass’，”said Holland，a postdoctoral research associate in Wikelski's lab.“What we've found is that juveniles use their compass，but the adults also use their map.”Holland said，“The birds d o not lose the compass as they age，but somehow develop the map，eventually applying both tools to keep on track during migratory flights.Scientists already have determined that the compass is based on the sun or the magnetic field，but where the map comes from remains a mystery—one that the team will be exploring in coming years.”1．Where did the 30 sparrows spend their summer?A．In Princeton.B．In Washington.C．In Alaska.D．In the southwestern United States.2．When the birds were first released，______.A．the adults found the right direction quicklyB．both groups remained lost in a few daysC．both groups flew in the same directionD．both groups joined together in their flight3．We can know from the passage that the juveniles of sparrows ______.A．will follow the adults in their flightsB．will find their destination eventuallyC．will lose the compass as they ageD．still lack an internal map4．We can conclude from the last paragraph that ______.A．sparrows need both a “map” and a “compass” in migratory flightsB．only the adults need a “map” to guide them in migratory flights C．the map is more important than a compassD．the adults can rely on a “map” or a “compass”参考答案Ⅰ．1．claimed 2．adapt；to

Module 6 Unexplained Mysteries of the Nature World 【导读】《织工马南》(Silas Marner)的作者是乔治·艾略特，原名为玛丽安·伊万斯。
这个故事发生在18世纪末19世纪初的英国。
数百年来，人们一直生活在村子里和小镇上。
他们在庄园里或自己家中工作，很少远离他们的出生地。
【文化节选】Chapter 7 Silas finds his “gold”But while Godfrey Cass was managing to forget his problems by the lovely Nancy's side，his wife was walking with slow，uncertain steps along the snow－covered road to Raveloe.She was carrying her sleeping child in her arms.For some time now she had planned to e to Raveloe on New Year's Eve.She knew that her husband would be at the centre of a happy，smiling group of friends，and she had chosen this moment to appear in front of all his family and guests at the Red House dance.“I don't care if Godfrey is ashamed of me！”she thought bitterly.“I want people to know we're married！”Sometimes she hated her husband, because he was still handsome，and had money，while she was no longer pretty，and very poor.She blamed him for her miserable life，but in her heart she knew she should blame her drinking.It had bee a habit with her to spend most of the money Godfrey gave her on gin.She had a bottle in her pocket now，which she had lifted to her lips several times during her journey.It was already seven o'clock in the evening，and there was a freezing wind.Molly did not know she was very near Raveloe.Her legs were tired and the gin was beginning to make her feel sleepy.She thought she would rest for a while，and，still holding her child，she lay down on the snow.She did not notice that the ground was cold.In a few moments the child woke up，crying，“Mummy，as the child fell gently out of its mother's arms on to the soft snow，it noticed a bright，dancing light on the white ground.Interested，the child stood up to see where the brightness came from，and followed the light to an open door，the door of Silas Marner's cottage.The little one toddled right in through the door and sat down by the bright fire.After a few minutes the child felt pleasantly warm, and fell asleep.But where was Silas while this was happening？In the evenings he sometimes used to open his door and look out.He had some idea that his money would e back，or that someone would e with information about the thief.Tonight was New Year's Eve，and the villagers had told him to stay awake until midnight，because it would bring him good luck if he saw the beginning of the new year.So tonight he was more restless thanusual.He opened his door several times during the evening last time，as he was standing at the door，he had one of his fits，and stood there pletely unconscious，holding the door open.第7章西拉斯找到了他的“金子”然而就在戈弗雷·凯斯坐在可爱的南茜身边试图忘记一切烦恼的时候，他的妻子正在大雪覆盖的道路上艰难地向瑞福洛的方向跋涉着。
