It’s hard to be a bird in a world which is in the charge of mankind.

You can hardly hear yourself sing, let alone hear the songs of your friends… and worst of all, you can’t hear a predator(捕食者). Noise is almost everywhere, especially noise from traffic.

Researchers have tried to study the influence of road noise on animals by looking at animals living near noisy roads.

“We figured out a way to have just the noise without any of the other effects of the road, and to do that we put many speakers in a forest where there was no road,” said Chris McClure, a biologist at Boise State University and The Peregrine Fund. He and his team carried out their experiment at a place popular with birds in Idaho as they fly south for the winter.

While the noise kept lots of birds away, some remained. But they had trouble putting on enough weight to support them in the next part of their migratory journey.

“They have to take food but they also have to avoid getting eaten by a predator. But these two things can’t be done at the same time because to eat, they have to look down, which means they aren’t looking at predators.”

And when it’s too loud, they can’t hear the alarm calls of other birds. So they have to waste time looking for predators instead of searching for food.

By 2050, it’s thought that enough new roads will be built to circle the planet more than 600 times. But there’s an easy solution to the noise problem—“Lowering speed limits does a lot.”

So next time you’re driving through nature, just slow down a little. It’s safer for you and the wildlife. And you can enjoy the view a little longer.

1.Who does the word “you” in Para 2 refer to?

A.A driver. B.A predator. C.A researcher. D.A bird.

2.Why did the researchers do the experiment in a forest without roads?

A.To prevent birds from being hit by cars.

B.To separate noise from other effects of the road.

C.To test a larger number of birds.

D.To put as many speakers as possible.

3.Why can’t birds put on enough weight with much noise around?

A.They can’t concentrate on looking for food.

B.They have to fly south for the winter.

C.They can’t hear the alarm calls.

D.They feel afraid of the noise.

4.What is advised to do to protect birds from the noise problem?

A.To build enough new roads.

B.To carry out more experiments.

C.To enjoy the view a little longer.

D.To drive slowly through nature.

Narasimha Das is on his way to feed 169,379 hungry children. Das is in charge of a kitchen in Vrindaban. The town is about a three-hour drive from India’s capital, New Delhi. Das gets to work at 3:00 a.m. Thirty workers are already working to make tens of thousands of rounds of bread. It will be brought to 1,516 schools in and around Vrindaban.

A Growing Problem

Going to school is difficult for more than 13 million children in India. They must go to work instead, or go hungry. That’s why India began the Mid-Day Meal Scheme, the largest school-lunch program in the world. A free lunch encourages children to come to school and gives them the energy they need for learning. The program began in the 1960s.

The kitchen in Vrindaban is run by the Akshaya Patra Foundation. It is one of the lunch program’s biggest partners. “Just $11.50 can feed one child for an entire year,” said Madhu Sridhar, president of the Akshaya Patra Foundation.

Lunch Is Served!

The Akshaya Patra food truck arrives at Gopalgarh Primary School. Since the program started, the number of underweight children has gone down. The children get foods they need — as long as they finish what’s on their plates.

1.The kitchen in Vrindaban supplies food to _____.

A．the poor                              B．the old

C．college students                        D．school children

2.Why is it difficult for children to go to school in India?

A．Because there are not enough teachers.

B．Because there are not enough schools.

3.Which of the following about the Mid-Day Meal Scheme is NOT true?

A．It is run by Narasimha Das.
