the next？ AA biographyBA travel guide CA history bookDA science fiction 57How does the writer recommend CHRONOLOGICA to readers？ ABy giving details of its collection BBy introducing some of its

birth，babies can tell the difference between loud sounds and voicesThey can even distinguish their mother's voice from that of a female stranger But when it comes to embryonic learning（胎教） ，birds could rule the roostAs recently reported in The Auk：Ornithological Adrances，some mother birds may teach their young to sing even before they hatch （孵化） New born chicks can then imitate their mom's call within a few days of enering the world This educational method was first observed in 2012 by Sonia Kieindorfer ，a biologist at Flinders University in South Australia， and her colleagues Female Australian superb fairy wrens were found to repeat one sound over and over again while hatching their eggs ，When the eggs were hatched ， the baby birds made the similar chirp to their mothers a sound that served as their regular“feed me!“call To find out if the special quality was more widespread in birds，the researchers sought the red 9 backed fairy wren，another species of Australian songbird First they collected sound data from 67 nests in four sites in Queenslang before and after hatching，Then they identified begging calls by analyzing the order and number of notesA computer analysis blindly compared calls produced by mothers and chicks ，ranking them by similarity It turns out that baby redbacked fairy wrens also emerge chirping like their moms And the more frequently mothers had called to their eggs ，the more similar were the babies'begging calls In addition，the team set up a separate experiment that suggested that the baby birds that most closely imitated their mom's voice were rewarded with the most food This observation hints that effective embryonic learning could signal neurological（神经系统的） strengths of children to parentsAn evolutionary inference can then be drawn“As a parent，do you invest in quality children， or do you invest in children that are in need？“Kleindorfer asks “Our results suggest that they might be going for quality“ 58The underlined phrase in Paragraph 1 means“ Abe the worst Bbe the best Cbe the as bad Dbe just as good 59What are Kleindorfer's findings based on ？ ASimilarities between the calls moms and chicks BThe observation of fairy wrens across Australia CThe data collected from Queensland's locals DControlled experiments on wrens and other birds 60Embryonic learning helps mother birds to identify the baby birds which Acan receive quality signals Bare in need of training Cfit the environment better Dmake the loudest call 61 （8 分）A new commodity brings about a highly profitable ，fastgrowing industry，urging antitrust（反垄断） regulators to step in to check those who control its flowA century ago，the resource in question was oil Now similar concerns ares being raised by the giants（巨头）that deal in data，the oil of the digital age The most valuable firms are Google ，Amazon，Facebook and 10 MicrosoftAll look unstoppable Such situations have led to calls for the tech giants to be broken up But size alone is not a crime ， The giants'success has benefited consumers Few want to live without search engines or a quick delivery，Far from charging consumers high prices ，many of these services are free （users pay ， in effect，by handing over yet more data） And the appearance of newborn giants suggests that newcomers can make waves ，too But there is cause for concernThe internet has made data abundant，allpresent and far more valuable，changing the nature of data and competition Google initially used the data collected from users to target advertising betterBut recently it has discovered that data can be turned into new services：translation and visual recognition，to be sold to other companiesInternet companies'control of data gives them enormous powerSo they have a“God's eye view“of activities in their own markets and beyond This nature of data makes the antitrust measures of the past less useful Breaking up firms like Google into five small ones would not stop remaking themselves ：in time，one of them would become great again A rethink is requiredand as a new approach starts to become apparent ， two ideas stand out The first is that antitrust authorities need to move form the industrial age into the 21st centuryWhen considering a merger（兼并） ，for example，they have traditionally used size to determine when to step in They now need to take into account the extent of firms'data assets （资 产） when assessing the impact of dealsThe purchase price could also be a signal that an established company is buying a new borm threat When this takes place ， especially when a new born company has no revenue to speak of ，the regulators should raise red flags The second principle is to loosen the control that providers of online services have over data and give more to those who supply themCompanies could be forced to consumers what information they hold and how many money they make form itGovemments could order the sharing of certain kinds of data，with users'consent Restarting antitrust for the information age will not be easy But if govemments don't wants a data oconomy by a few giants ，they must act soon 61Why is there a call to break up giants ？ 11 AThey have controlled the data market BThey collect enormous private data CThey no longer provide free services DThey dismissed some new born giants 62What does the technological innovation in Paragraph 3 indicate ？ AData giants'technology is very expensive BGoogle's idea is popular among data firms CData can strengthen giants'controlling position DData can be turned into new services or products 63By paying attention to firms'data assets ，antitrust regulators could Akill a new threat Bavoid the size trap Cfavour bigger firms Dcharge higher prices 64What is the purpose of loosening the giants'control of data？ ABig companies could relieve data security pressure BGovernments could relieve their financial pressure CConsumers could better protect their privacy DSmall companies could get more opportunities 65 （12 分）Old Problem，New Approaches While clean energy is increasingly used in our daily life，global warning will continue for some decades after CO 2 emissions （排放）peakSo even if emission were to begin decrease today ，we would still face the challenge of adapting to climateHere I will stress some smarter and more creative examples of climate adaptation When it comes to
