Birds in eastern North America are picking up the pace along their yearly migratory (迁移的) paths. The reason, according to researchers, is rising temperatures due to climate change.
Using migration information collected in eBird, a citizen science program database containing 10 years’ worth of observations from amateur birdwatchers, assistant professor of biology Allen Hurlbert, Ph.D., and his team analyzed when 18 different species of birds arrived at various points across their migration journeys.
Pushing migration earlier in the year could negatively affect birds over the long term, Hurlbert said. “Timing of bird migration is something critical for the overall health of bird species,” he said. “They have to time it right so they can balance arriving on breeding (繁殖) grounds after there’s no longer a risk of severe winter conditions. If they get it wrong, they may die or may not produce as many young.”
Hurlbert said, the speed at which a species migrates is the biggest influence on how strongly it responds to increasing temperatures. Slow migrators were the most adaptable to changes. Additionally, the length of the migration path affects how quickly birds move from one location to another.
“It makes sense that if you take your time to move north, you’re sort of checking out the surroundings around you,” he said. “If the conditions seem too cold, you can decide there’s no point in moving on that day. Species that tended to advance quickly, as well as those migrating from greater distances, such as Central or South America, were less able to adapt to temperature changes.”
However, being a slow traveler does not free a species from all climate change-induced migration challenges. Because they stay in one spot longer, such birds have heavier habitat and food requirements, making them more dependent upon the resources that are available along their paths. That reliance could become a greater problem if climate projections for the next 50 years to 75 years hold true, Hurlbert said. Climatologists predict the Northeast will continue to warm at a faster pace than the Southeast, potentially forcing slow migrators to move even slower and put greater difficulty on their migratory routes.
1.The rising temperatures led to _______________.
A.the speed-up of birds’ migration
B.the weakness of the birds’ physical health
C.the birds’ less demand for food
D.the variation of breeding grounds
2.According to Hurbert, wrong timing of bird migration can lead to ___________.
A.a risk of wrong migration paths B.change in life habit
C.a lack of natural resources D.decrease in bird population
3.What is the most important factor in adapting to climate change for birds?
A.The cycle of migration.
B.Migration speed.
C.Their local habitat.
D.The temperature along the migratory path.
4.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A.Climatologists’ prediction.
B.Climate changes’ bad effects.
C.Challenges of slow migrators’ migration.
D.Changes of birds’ migratory routes.

I was walking along the deserted main street of a small seaside town in the north of England looking somewhere to make a phone call. My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted to get in touch with the Automobile Association .Low gray clouds were drifting across the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea. It had rained in the night and water was dripping from the bare trees that lined the street. I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat.
There was no sign of a call box, nor was there anyone at that early hour I could ask. I had thought I might find a shop selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his job, but the town was completely dead.
Then suddenly I found what I was looking for. There was a small post office, and almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street next to it was the town's only public call box, which badly needed a coat of paint, I hurried forward but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside. He was very fat, and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat and rubber boots. I could not see his face - he was bending forward over the phone with his back pressed against the glass and didn't even raise his head at the sound of my coming nearer and nearer. Carefully and surprisedly, I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait my turn. It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the call box door.
1.The author was walking through the small seaside town__________.
| A．late morning | B．early morning |
| C．before midnight | D．late evening |
2.The weather of the day was ____, when the story happened.
| A．windy, cold and cloudy | B．stormy, damp and clear |
| C．rainy, cold and clear | D．rainy, windy and cold |
3. Why was the author astonished when he saw that there was a man in the call box? Because____.
| A．the man inside was still wearing a raincoat |
| B．he didn't expect it to be taken up |
| C．the man had his back with him |
| D．the man did not seem to be moving |
4.The author waited, standing a few feet away from the box because____.
| A．it was not safe to be close to the box |
| B．the man didn't notice his coming |
| C．he wanted to have a cigarette to calm himself down |
| D．it was bad manners to overhear other's phone calls |
