unbelievable numbers.Writtenaccounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks(群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point,there were more than 3 billion passengerpigeonsa number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States,making it perhaps themost abundant bird in the world.Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller,a flockbelieved to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles(about 515 kilometers)long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing.Where the birds were mostabundant,people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands.Commercial huntersattracted them to small clearings with grain,waited until pigeons had settled to feed,then threw large nets overthem,taking hundreds at a time.The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century,the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had beendamaged by Americans need for wood,which scattered(驱散)the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north,where cold temperatures and storms contributed to their decline.Soon the great flocks were gone,never to be seenagain.In 1897,the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons but by then,nosizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years.The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shotby a boy in Pike County,Ohio,in 1900.For a time,a few birds survived under human care.The last of them,known affectionately as Martha,died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1,1914.28.In the 18th and early 19th centuries,passenger pigeons _.A.were the biggest bird in the worldB.lived mainly in the south ofAmericaC.did great harm to the natural environmentD.were the largest bird population in the US29.The underlined word“undoing”probably refers to the pigeons_.A.escapeB.ruinC.liberationD.evolution30.What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?A.To seek pleasure.B.To save other birds.C.To make money.D.To protect crops.31.What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?A.It was ignored by the public.B.It was declared too late.C.It was unfair.D.It was strict.DSome schools are pumping music,noises and pleasant smells into the classroom to see if it improves examresults.Could it work?Why do songs stick in our heads?What does your school smell like?Is it noisy or peaceful?It might not seem important,but a growing body of research suggests that smells and sounds can have animpact on learning,performance and creativity.Indeed,some head teachers have recently taken to broadcastingnoises and pumping smells into their schools to see whether it can boost grades.Is there anything in it?And if so,what are the implications for the way we work and study?There is certainly some well-established research to suggest that some noises can have a harmful effect onlearning.Numerous studies over the past 15 years have found that children attending schools under the flight pathsof large airports fall behind in their exam results.Bridget Shield,a professor of acoustics(声学)at London SouthBank University,and Julie Dockrell,from the Institute of Education,have been conducting studies on the effects ofall sorts of noises,such as traffic and sirens(汽笛),as well as noise generated by the children themselves.Whenthey recreated those particular sounds in an experimental setting while children completed various learning tasks,they found a significant negative effect on exam scores.“Everything points to a bad impact of the noise onchildrens performance,in numeracy,in literacy,and in spelling,”says Shield.The noise seemed to have anespecially harmful effect on children with special needs.Whether background sounds are beneficial or not seems to depend on what kind of noise it is and thevolume.In a series of studies published last year,Ravi Mehta from the College of Business at Illinois and hiscolleagues tested peoples creativity while exposed to a soundtrack made up of background noises such ascoffee-shop chatter and construction-site drilling at different volumes.They found that people were morecreative when the background noises were played at a medium level than when volume was low.Loud backgroundnoise,however,damaged their creativity.Many teachers all over the world already play music to students in class.Many are inspired by the belief thathearing music can boost IQ in later tasks,the so-called Mozart effect.While the evidence actually suggests its hardto say classical music boosts brainpower,researchers do think pleasant sounds before a task can sometimes lift yourmood and help you perform well,says Perham,who has done his own studies on the phenomenon.The key appearsto be that you enjoy what youre hearing.“If you like the music or you like the sound even listening to a StephenKing novel then you do better.It doesnt matter about the music,”he says.So,it seems that schools that choose to prevent disturbing noises and create positive soundscapes couldenhance the learning of their students,so long as they make careful choices.Yet this isnt the only sense being usedto affect learning.Special educational needs students at Sydenham high school in London are being encouraged torevise different subjects in the presence of different smells grapefruit scents for maths,lavender for French andspearmint for history.32.The four questions in the first paragraph are meant to _.A.create some sense of humour to please the readersB.provide the most frequently asked questions in schools nowadaysC.hold the readersattention and arouse their curiosity to go on readingD.declare the purpose of the article:to try to offer key to those questions33.What does the conclusion of the studies of noise conducted by Bridget Shield and Julie Dockrell suggest?A.Peaceful music plays an active role in studentslearning.B.Not all noises have a negative impact on childrens performance.C.We should create for school children a more peaceful environment.D.Children with special needs might be exposed to some particular sounds.34.Ravi Mehtas experiment indicates that _.A.studentscreativity improves in a quiet environmentB.we may play some Mozart music while students are learningC.a proper volume of background noises does improve creativityD.noise of coffee-shop chatter is better than that of construction-site drilling35.Which of the following is most likely to follow up the research findings?A.Expertsresearch into other senses that can improve studentsgrades.B.More successful examples of boosting learning power by using music.C.Suggestions for pumping lots of pleasant smells into school campuses.D.Debates on whether noises can really have positive effect on studentsperformance.第二节（共 5 小题：每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 分）阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Failure is probably the most exhausting experience one ever has.There is nothing more tiring than notsucceeding.We experience this tiredness in two ways:start-up fatigue(疲惫)and performance fatigue.In the former case,we keep putting off a task because it is either too boring or too difficult._36_.Such start-up fatigue is very real,even if not actually physical.The solution is obvious though perhaps noteasy to apply:always handle the most difficult job first._37_.Using my own rule,I determined to write themin alphabetical(字母)order and I always started the days work with the difficult task of essay-writing.Experienceproved that the rule works._38_.Its difficulties appear so great that we fail again and again.In such a situation,I work as hard as Ican and then let the unconscious take over.When planning Encyclopedia Britannica,I had to create a table ofcontents.Nothing like this had ever been done before so that my fatigue became almost unbearable.I tried toconvince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself,not with me._39
