48、 popular activity and every fisherman knows the rule: Keep the big ones, throw the smaller ones back. The idea behind Lt is simple - the larger fish are probably older. If you keep the smaller ones, they wont be able to reproduce, and the fish population is in danger.But fishing out the largest fish

49、 from a population has an unwanted effect: Over time, fewer adult fish get really big. If only the smaller fish reproduce（繁殖）, then future generations become smaller. This is an example of evolution（进化） in action.One scientist, Dr David Conover has spent the last decade studying the effects of the “

50、keep the big ones” rule and if they can be reversed（颠倒）.To set up his experiment, Conover and his team caught hundreds of silverside fish and divided them into six groups. For two groups, Conover followed the “keep the large ones” rule and took out the biggest fish. For two other groups, he removed

51、only the small fish.For the last two groups, he removed fish at random (随意的).After five years, he measured the fish in each group. In the two groups where the largest fish were regularly removed, the average fish size was smaller than the average size in the other groups. Here was evolution in actio

52、n: If only small fish survive to reproduce, then future generations of fish will also tend to be small.For the second five years of his experiment, Conover changed the rules and took fish randomly from each group. At the end of the experiment, he found that the fish that were in the “keep the large

53、ones” group for the first five years had started to get larger again, although he calculated it would take at least 12 years for the fish in that group to return to their original size.In other words, it takes less time to shrink(变小) than it does to recover.1The underlined word “it” (Line 2) refers to “ ”Athe activity Bthe fishCthe rule Dthe fisherman2Why do many people follow the “keep the big ones, throw the small ones back” rule?AIt helps to protect fish
