good and bad experiences but,if you do it enough,youll realize that,occasionally,its fun.58.According to the author,why is public speech important to the average?A.Friendships can be established

delight us sometimes.D.Attempts to give public speaking tend to fail in the end.C.Throwing handfuls of bread to birds has long been seen as harmless enough.But in recent years,some scientists have suggested that bread might not do birds digestive systems any good,saying that as uneaten 高三英语试卷第 11 页 共 25 页food rots down,the water quality worsens and algal blooms can occur.Plus,by encouraging birds to gather in one place,the build-up of droppings may result in outbreaks of disease too.Meanwhile,many cities have signs telling us not to feed pigeons and gulls,which are considered an“annoyance”due to the mess they make,and scattering bread inevitably attracts rats and mice.It seems that the public has accepted these warnings,and that fewer of us now feed birds this way.In October,a sign went up in a Derbyshire park claiming that the local birds were dying of starvation,and urging visitors to feed them as before.When online posts about the notice went viral,feathers flew as people debated the benefits of handing out bread to birds.Paul Stancliffe of the British Trust for Ornithology(BTO)points out that theres ins ufficient scientific evidence for bread harming birds,adding that,as little research has been done,it could even turn out to be beneficial.“We just don t know,”he says.Although bread is a heavily processed“unnatural”food intended for humans,that alone may be insufficient grounds for not feeding it to birds.In the 1980s,the Wildfowl&Wetland Trust(WWT)carried out a comparative study of different flocks of mute swans,and the birds that consumed the most bread had weaker muscles,implying that a bread-heavy diet might be the cause.“Our official line is that bread is okay for ducks,geese and swans,but only in moderation,”says WWTs Peter Morris.“However,this advice comes with several other warnings.”The first is that its best offered in winter,when there is less plant and insect food around.d In spring and summer,too much artificial food may not be a good idea,since young birds have to learn how to look after themselves and natural food will contain a wider range of nutrients to help them grow.高三英语试卷第 12 页 共 25 页“Just like us,birds need a varied diet to stay healthy,”says a spokesperson for the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds(RSPB).“Alt
