11、I was traveling with a film crew from Northern Ireland,following the footsteps of Lord Dufferin who,in the 1850s,sailed from Scotland to the Arctic.As an early adventure tourist,he was driven by the desire to see what lay at the ends of the world.As we sailed north,icebergs of the size of buses floa

19、e songbirds evolved from the wingless,earthbound dinosaurs that wandered millions of years ago.But some organisms seem to be unchanged in other words,escape natural selection.The coelacanth,a modern-day fish,is nearly identical to its 410-million-year-old fossils.Scientists have long wondered how th

20、ese species do so.It has been assumed that natural selection keeps some species unchanged by selecting for moderate or average qualities(stabilizing selection)rather than selecting for more extreme qualities that would cause a species to change(directional selection).But a study published in the Nat

21、ional Academy of Sciences USA contradicts this idea,showing that evolution constantly favors different qualities in seemingly unchanging animals to improve short-term survival.In the long term,though,“all that evolution cancels out and leads to no change,”says the studys lead author,James Stroud.Str

22、oud and his colleagues studied four lizard species,all relatively unchanged for 20 million years.The researchers caught members of these populations every six months for three years.They measured each lizards head size,leg length,mass and height,as well as the size of its sticky toes,noting which in

28、ummarize average features of lizards.C.Reveal the best combinations of qualities.D.Examine lizards under extreme conditions.D On March 7,1907,the English statistician Francis Galton published a paper which illustrated what has come to be known as the“wisdom of crowds”effect.The experiment of estimat

29、ion he conducted showed that in some cases,the average of a large number of independent estimates could be quite accurate.This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors,those errors arent always the same.Some people will tend to overestimate,and some to underestimate.When enough of

30、 these errors are averaged together,they cancel each other out,resulting in a more accurate estimate.If people are similar and tend to make the same errors,then their errors wont cancel each other out.In more technical terms,the wisdom of crowds requires that peoples estimates be independent.If for

31、whatever reason,peoples errors become correlated or dependent,the accuracy of the estimate will go down.But a new study led by Joaquin Navajas offered an interesting twist on this classic phenomenon.The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller groups that were

32、allowed to have a discussion,the average from these groups were more accurate than those from an equal number of independent individuals.For instance,the average obtained from the estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained from 20 independen

34、?Did they follow those least willing to change their minds?This happened some of the time,but it wasnt the dominant response.Most frequently,the groups reported that they“shared arguments and reasoned together.”Somehow,these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global reduction in error.Although th
