I went to school earlier than before and noticed Darwin sitting across the room which is strange because no one ever notices Darwin. Sudde

27、nly, Darwin stood up and threw away all his books, shouting loudly. I could hear screaming and crying but the sounds seemed distant as I focused my full attention on Darwin six feet in front of me. I felt the words swell up in me. “Darwin, I heard myself say with a calm, steady voice. nI have family

34、groves end up deep in the rainforests of Mexico*s Yucatan Peninsula. These plants live in freshwater along the San Pedro Martir River. Thats nearly 200 kilometers from the sea. Scientists wanted to know how these mangroves got trapped so far inland. Carlos Burelo was among them. He became curious ab

35、out these mangroves on a childhood fishing trip there 35 years ago. Burelo saw that the roots of the mangroves grew above ground. This was different from the other trees.Burelo*s team first investigated where the freshwater mangroves came from. They started by collecting their leaves and then compar

36、ed their DNA to the leaves from coastal mangroves which were growing along the Gulf of Mexico. The DNA helped identify the origins of the mangroves on the San Pedro Martir River. They had started along the Gulf of Mexico, some 170 kilometers away from the river. The team discovered other evidence th

37、at this ecosystem had once been coastal. They discovered 112 other species in this region that are typically found near coasts.The researchers looked at the soil too. nThese sediments （沉积物）near the mangroves revealed exactly what we expected/ says ExequielEzcurra, an ecologist at the University of C

38、alifornia. In all, the researchers turned up coastal stones, shells of sea snails and clay sediments rich in shell fragments （碎片）. These led the researchers to conclude the area used to be part of the ocean long ago.Computer models of how sea level has changed over time confirmed those findings. The

39、 models showed that when sea levels were higher in the past, the ocean merged with the lower basin of the San Pedro Martir River. That would have been around 150,000 to 130,000 years ago. This pushed red mangroves and other species inland.“This discovery highlights how changes to the past climate ha

40、ve affected the worlds coastlines/ Ezcurra says. nIt also offers a chance to better understand how future sea level rise may affect these ecosystems. *What did Burelo notice as a child?A.

43、on.D. Combined with.DStanford University researchers have developed a device called a nature-inspired aerial grasper, or SNAG, which can be attached to a quadcopter drone （四轴无人机） to give it feet and legs like those of an eagle. When equipped with the device, the drone is able to fly around catching

44、and carrying objects and perching （栖息）on various surfaces, according to a Stanford news release dated Dec. 1, 2021, describing the work.But copying the flexibility of birds wasn1 t easy to do. The researchers shot videos of small parrots flying back and forth between special perches that contained s

45、ensors to measure the physical forces of landing, perching and takeoff.What surprised us was that they did the same aerial military exercise, no matter what surfaces they were landing on,“ one of the researchers, William Roderick, explained in the news release. They let the feet handle the variabili

46、ty and complexity of the surface texture itself, he said.Giving a drone similar abilities required technological feat. SNAG has a 3D-printed structure that imitates an eagle s lightweight bones, and each of its legs is equipped with a motor for moving back and forth and a second one for grasping.Mec

47、hanisms in the robot5 s legs are designed to absorb impact energy and passively change it into grasping force, the way that a bird s muscles would. As a result, a drone equipped with the device can grasp something strongly in just 20 milliseconds. Once the robot s feet are wrapped around a perch, it

48、s ankles lock and an accelerometer-a device that measures vibration-detects the landing and activates a balancing algorithm （算法）to stabilize it on the perch.Elsewhere, researchers at other institutions also have been working for years on giving drones the ability to land and hang onto something. As this 2019 Smithsonian article explains, being able to land in various places helps drones to conserve energy that would expend by having to remain in the air. That* s important, because the flight
