The Harvard school of Greduate Education, along with 80 other schools and organizations, released a report called Turning the Tide Making Caring Common” in January, 2016. The r

29、eport argues that the process schools use to choose students causes major problems.David Hawkins is the Executive Director for Educational Content and Policy at the National Association for College Admissions Counseling. Hawkins told Voice of America that most colleges and universities require many

30、things from students when they apply. Schools usually ask for an essay describing a students interests or why they want to study at that school. The schools also ask for letters from teachers or other responsible adults describing why a student is a good candidate. But, Hawkins says, the area that s

31、chools are most concerned about is a students high school grades and standardized test results.The report suggests that paying attention to academic success over other qualities works well for some students but hurts others. In addition, academic success is not the most important quality a student s

32、hould have. More attention should be paid to showing whether or not a student wants to do well in the world, according to the report.The report goes on to state that the best way to change the admissions process is by changing college applications. It suggests that schools should ask for evidence th

33、at students care about other people. But the report does have its critics. Bob Schaeffer, Public Education Director for the National Center for Fair and Open Testing, said that every few years, someone makes the same argument for changes, but no real change has happed yet. Even many of the schools t

34、hat agree with the report still make no changes.Lloyd Thacker, Executive Director of the Education Conservancy, said that until a majority of schools agree to make the changes, there will still be problems. However, he said, the admissions process was better in the past. If bad changes can affect th

35、e process, so can good ones.1、What is the problems of the admissions process according to the report?AThe schools ask too many things from the applying students.BThe schools attach too much importance to students academic recordsCThe number of students getting admitted is too smallDAdmissions office

38、 saying to each other, a new study has found.The research, published in the journal Animal Behavior, says the magpie has learned the meanings of different noisy miner calls and essentially eavesdrops(偷听) to find out which predators(食肉动物) are near.Noisy miners-a small, native honeyeater-have differen

39、t warning calls for ground-based and aerial(飞行的)predators. By playing both kinds of recording to a series of wild magpies, researchers observed the magpies raising their beaks(喙) to the sky, or dropping their heads to the ground.Researchers attracted the magpies with cheese, then played the noisy mi

40、ner calls, videotaping the results.As a control, they also rolled a large orange ball towards the magpies to see how they ordinarily tilted(倾斜) their beaks to ground threats, and threw the ball to see how they reacted to aerial threats.The researchers recorded an average maximum beak angle of 29 deg

41、rees for the thrown ball, and an average maximum of nine degrees when it was rolled.The miners aerial warning caused an average maximum beak angle of 31 degrees, and the ground warning caused an average maximum of 24.One of the studys authors, Dominique Potvin, said the magpies showed an astonishing

42、 level of insight.Magpies and miners broadly face the same types of predators and the two frequently live in the same ecosystem.Potvin said this had encouraged the magpies learned behavior.“Magpies are generally found on the ground and noisy miners are generally found up in trees. It pays for the ma

43、gpie to pay attention to somebody who has a better view of predators than they do.”She said it was unclear whether other birds could do the same, but it was highly likely other magpies around Australia already did.“Magpies are a pretty smart group. Were not sure if theyre learning this from other ma

44、gpies or if theyre figuring it out on their own, but the ability is there.As part of the experiment, researchers also played a third call: a common, non-warning call from a crimson rosella. They found the magpies did not respond.Potvin said that we had been actively exploring animal cognition(认知) re

49、 equipped with highly developed stealth technology (隐形技术) that helps them charge towards preyan animal hunted and eaten by anotherundetected, a study has shown.Owls have flight feathers that absorb aerodynamic sound and control the vibrations (振动) that occur when a bird beats its wings. The result i

50、s perfect silence as it approaches a mouse or other prey.Scientists used lasers and high-speed cameras to analyze and compare long-eared owl, eagle and pigeon feathers during flight. While differing in size, all three birds have a similar wing-beat style.Professor Jinkui Chu led the research. He sai

51、d, “Many owls have a unique and fascinating ability to fly so silently that they are out of their preys hearing range, due to their feather structure.”This behaviour has long been of interest to engineers, as we seek to apply the owls noise-reduction mechanisms (机制) to other purposes and situations

52、that benefit society.Now, however, we know the owls silent flight ability is even better than we thought. Of all birds the owl is the king of acoustic stealth. It not only manages to prevent aerodynamic noise when gliding, but also mechanical noise caused by vibration during flying.This is remarkabl

53、e, considering the sudden jumping, bending and twisting the wings are subjected to when flapping and the noise that is created by other birds.In the scientific world, the process used to remove this mechanical noise is called damping, which means the removal of mechanical energy from a vibrating sys

54、tem usually by changing it into heat and allowing it to remain steady.“Our research showed the long-eared owl has superior damping skill, meaning it can remain amazingly stable and remove mechanical noise caused by the movement of its feathers quite an impressive achievement of engineering.99He adde

55、d, “This study will hopefully provide further insight into the owls silent flight mechanism and help engineers develop ideas for special materials or structures, such as on-shore wind turbines, where similar noise removal can be applied.”1、What can be true about owls according to the text?AThey are

56、active during the day. BThey attract much attention from engineers.CThey have similar wings to eagles. DThey beat wings without vibrations.2、By saying “the owl is the king of acoustic stealth” in Paragraph 6, Jinkui Chu means owls_.Aare good at capturing prey Bhave a good sense of hearingCare good a
