predator(食肉动物)is cause for alarm,researchers have found.Animals including squirrels have previously been found to tune in to cries of alarm fromother creatures.But the latest study suggests animals may also keep an ear out for everydaychitchat among other species as a way to assess whether there is trouble afoot.Writing in the journal Plos One,researchers reported on how they made their discovery byobserving 67 grey squirrels as they pottered about（晃悠）different areas in the residential regionsof Oberlin.After 30 seconds of observing a squirrel,researchers played it a recording of the call of ared-tailed hawk(鹰),which lasted a couple of seconds and their behaviour in the next 30seconds was monitored.The squirrels were then played a three-minute recording of severaldifferent species of songbird chattering on a feeder.The results revealed that in the 30 seconds after hearing the hawk call the squirrels increasedthe percentage of their time spent“vigilant”(警惕)compared with before the call,while they alsolooked up more often to scan the environment.Squirrels that were played bird chatter raised theirheads less often during the recording and the number of these“look-ups”dropped off faster overtime.“Recognition of bird chatter as a sign of safety is likely adaptive,as squirrels that can safelyreduce their vigilance level in the presence of bird chatter probably are able to increase foraging(觅食)success,”the authors wrote.The team suggested that with levels of human-made noise increasing,squirrels may find itharder to eavesdrop on birds,meaning they may have to spend more time being alert and less timeforaging.Dr Jakob Bro-Jorgensen,co-author of the study from Oberlin College,said:“The study callsattention to how animals can gather information from their environment by using cues that may atfirst glance seem irrelevant,”he said.“And it makes you wonder how the more and morepervasive(无处不在的)impact of human activities on natural soundscapes may reduce survivalof wildlife in ways we havent thought of.”32.What does the new research find about squirrelseavesdropping?A.It lacks scientific evidence.B.It is more widespread and broader.C.It needs to be further investigated.D.It is contradictory to previous findings.33.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.The subject of the experiment.B.The findings of the experiment.C.The process of the experiment.D.The purpose of the experiment.34.Why is recognition of bird chatter as a sign of safety important for squirrels?A.They can escape from potential risks.B.It helps them to forage food successfully.C.It is safe for them to play with their mates.D.They can adapt to a new environment quickly.决胜新高考2023 届高三年级大联考英语第页（共 10 页）835.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning the research?A.Its implication.B.Its appeal to the public.C.Expectations for further study.D.Scientists with new perspectives.第二节第二节(共共 5 5 小题小题:每小题每小题 2.2.5 5 分分,满分满分 12.12.5 5
