11、anderthals,including two children,became victims of cannibalism:Global warming.While previous studies have examined Neanderthal remains to find proof of cannibalistic behavior,this is the first study to offer clues as to what may have led Neanderthals to become cannibals.Scientists found that rapid

12、changes in local ecosystems as the planet warmed may have wiped out the animal species that Neanderthals ate,forcing them to look elsewhere to fill their stomachs.The researchers examined a layer of sediment(沉积物)in a cave known as Baume Moula-Guercy,in southeastern France.In that layer,charcoal(碳)an

13、d animal bones were so well-preserved that scientists could reconstruct an environmental picture representing 120,000 to 130,000 years ago.They discovered that the climate in the area was likely even warmer than it is today,and that the change from a cold,dry climate to a warmer one happened quickly

14、.“Maybe within a few generations”,study co-author Emmanuel said.As the animals that once populated the landscape disappeared,some Neanderthals ate what they could find their neighbors.Cannibalism is by no means unique to Neanderthals,and has been practiced by humans and their s“from the early Palaeo

15、lithic to theBronze Age and beyond,”the study authors reported.The behavior adopted by the starving Neanderthals in the Baume Moula-Guercy should therefore not be viewed as“a mark of bestiality(兽性)or sub-humanity”,but as an emergency adaptation to a period of severe environmental stress,according to

19、sage?A.In a science journal.B.In a travel brochure.C.In a history book.D.In a geography book.C Elizabeth Spelke,a cognitive psychologist at Harvard,has spent her career testing the worlds most complex learning system-the mind of a baby.Babies might seem like no match for artificial intelligence(AI).

20、They are terrible at labeling images,hopeless at mining text,and awful at video games.Then again,babies can do things beyond the reach of any AI.By just a few months old,theyve begun to grasp the foundations of language,such as grammar.Theyve started to understand how to adapt to unfamiliar situatio

21、ns.Yet even experts like Spelke dont understand precisely how babies or adults learn.Consider one of the most impressive examples of AI,Alpha Zero,a programme that plays board games with superhuman skill.After playing thousands of games against itself at a super speed,and learning from winning posit

22、ions,Alpha Zero independently discovered several famous chess strategies and even invented new ones.It certainly seems like a machineeclipsinghuman cognitive abilities.But Alpha Zero needs to play millions more games than a person during practice to learn a game.Most importantly,it cannot take what

23、it has learned from the game and apply it to another area.To some AI experts,that calls for a new approach.In a November research paper,Francois Chollet,a well-known AI engineer,argued that its misguided to measure machine intelligence just according to its skills at specific tasks.“Humans dont star

24、t out with skills;they start out with a broad ability to acquire new skills,”he says.“What a strong human chess player is demonstrating is not only the ability to play chess,but the potential to fulfill any task of a similar difficulty.”8.Compared to an advanced AI programme,a baby might be better a

27、ce going?D.How do humans face the challenge of AI?D Earthquake can disrupt whales hunting for food for up to a year,according to a new study.On November 14,2016,the Kaikoura earthquake struck New Zealands South Island,causing a destructive tsunami.Under the surface,the earthquake caused strong curre

28、nts that swept away and mostly killed off diverse ecosystems of creatures living along the Kaikoura underwater canyon.As a result,whales had to dive deeper and longer to find food“a major shift”in their behavior,says co-author Liz Slooten,a marine biologist at the University of Otago in New Zealand.

29、The impact earthquakes have on land animals has been well documented,but scientists know ly little about what happens underwater.Such research is important for government agencies,which may need to take recent earthquakes into consideration when considering fishing quotas（限额）,notes Rochelle Constant

30、ine,a marine mammal ecologist at the University of Auckland.The canyons upper reaches are rich in creatures,supplying food for the fish that make up the whales diet.So when these smaller life forms were washed away,it had“severe consequences for the community around there”,says study co-author Will

31、Rayment.“That effect flowed all the way through the food chain.”As part of their ongoing study,the scientists were tracking 42 individual whales.After the earthquake,in all,the team managed to record data on 40 whales,showing that the abundance of whales in the general area didnt change after the ea

32、rthquake.However,the whales changed how they used their habitat.A year after the earthquake,the researchers observed the whales returning to their previous surface-breathing intervals.This could have been because the communities of animals that make up the whales food began to recover.“It gives you

33、an idea of how resilient（有复原力的）these deep-sea communities are,”says Rayment.But he and his colleagues will continue long-term monitoring to see if there are effects they missed.Whale activity in the area had already been declining,though its unknown whether it is due to natural changes in food abund
