鸟的建筑

苇岸

①鸟巢是鸟的建筑。和我们盖房子不同,鸟筑巢不是为定居。鸟只在繁殖期筑巢。

②鸟类学家依据鸟巢的位置和性质,把鸟巢分为地面巢、水面巢、洞穴巢、屋宇巢和编织巢等几种类型。

③地面巢大多简单、随便,往往仅在地面凹处略敷草物即告完工。这种巢,主要由雉、雁、鸭、鹤等笨拙的大型鸟类所为。出乎我们意料的是,像云雀、百灵、歌鸲、画眉这些名字美丽,叫声动听的玲珑小鸟,也在地面营巢。当然,它们的巢编织得都很精致。这是些疏于林木,常年出没在旷野,为土地处处留下歌声的可爱精灵。在水面营巢的鸟屈指可数,能够列举的如涉禽中善游的骨顶鸡与董鸡。它们借助水生植物搭造的可随水面升降的盘状浮巢,风险最小。洞穴巢包括崖壁洞穴和树干洞穴两种,前者的主人有翠鸟和沙燕;后者居多,如椋鸟、山雀、斑鸠、八哥、鹪鹩及肮脏的戴胜等,都是天然树洞或啄木鸟弃巢的受益者。如果顺着这个行列数下去,我们还会惊讶地发现鸳鸯。应该指明的是,营树洞巢的鸟,只有攀禽中的啄木鸟,真正具备开凿本领。啄木鸟还有一种英雄秉性,即它从不使用自己往年的旧洞。利用我们的屋宇营巢的鸟(不提麻雀),主要为燕科成员,原因在于它们的泥巢无法在露天筑造。最后说到的编织巢,就是指我们观念上认定的,代表“鸟巢”这一词语本义的,由鸟类中广大的鸣禽在树上(个别在草丛或灌木基部)精心营建的巢。这是那群勤奋的鸟类艺术家呕心沥血的作品,也是我们这篇短文想要谈论的核心。

④除涉禽中的鹭,游禽中的鹈鹕和猛禽中部分鹰隼(这是些在树上筑粗陋大巢的鸟)外,编织巢几乎全部为雀形目鸟类所造。它们长于鸣啭,巧于营巢,故根据分类上的说法,我们前面又称它们为鸣禽。雀形目是新鸟亚纲中种数最多的一目,其庞大数量占现代鸟类总体一半以上。

⑤编织巢的形态,可说多姿多彩。我们易于见到的杯状巢、碗状巢、盘状巢及瓶状巢,是其中主要的几种。营哪种巢型,与鸟的科属有关。但我愿意相信,它取决于鸟类个体的偏爱与审美因素。因此,这里无规律可循。

⑥杯状巢是多数营巢鸟喜爱的一种巢型,像我们熟悉的伯劳、卷尾、柳莺、寿带等夏候鸟,都营此型巢。太平鸟、灰山椒鸟、乌鸫及北红尾鸲等,营碗状巢。树鹨和灰喜鹊的巢很浅,呈盘状。攀雀和棕扇尾莺的巢收口,巢体似瓶。文鸟、黄眉柳莺和“告春鸟”短翅树莺,能够营造顶部具盖,侧面开门的球状巢。更为精巧和高超的,是黄鹂和绣眼鸟的吊篮式悬巢。南方有一种富于传奇色彩的小鸟,会将芭蕉或其他大型树叶卷合,然后在叶缘穿孔,贯以丝线,缝成袋状巢。这种天才的小鸟,鸟类学家就叫它“缝叶莺”。

⑦真正和我们的生活密不可分,在我们的视域内最为显著的鸟巢,实际是喜鹊粗糙的球状巢。这种“仰鸣则晴,俯鸣则雨,人闻其声则喜”(《禽经》)的民间吉祥鸟,同淳朴的麻雀一道,终年祥和地围绕着我们。特别是在空旷的冬天,它们的巢很像一座座村庄,醒目地坐落在原野高大的树上(每巢都有一定巢距的巢区。个别也有一树双巢现象。在北京的沙河附近,我曾见过一树四巢)。每次看到这些高耸的星罗棋布的“家”,我都很动情,我觉得这是一种世间温暖与平安的象征,是这个季节比雪与太阳升落更优美的景色。

⑧在神造的东西日渐减少、人造的东西日渐增添的今天,在蔑视一切的经济的巨大步伐下,鸟巢与土地、植被、大气、水,有着同一莫测的命运。在过去短暂的一二十年间,每个关注自然和熟知乡村的人,都已亲身感受或目睹了它们前所未有的沧海桑田性的变迁。

11)根据第④段的内容,解释什么是“鸣禽”。

答:_____________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________________

2)简要说说第③段第二句加点的“主要”一词在文中的作用。

答:_____________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________________

2鸟儿营造哪种巢形和鸟儿的科属有关,为什么作者却“愿意相信,它取决于鸟类个体的偏爱与审美因素”?

答:_____________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________________

3这是一篇介绍说明鸟类巢居的文章,在行文中却有很多“不科学”的措辞,像“可爱精灵”“勤奋的艺术家”“天才的小鸟”“纯朴的麻雀”等等,作者这样写好吗?为什么?

答:_____________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________________

4作者在文末说:“每个关注自然和熟知乡村的人,都已亲身感受或目睹了它们前所未有的沧海桑田性的变迁。”有何深刻含义?试将你的“亲身感受”用最简明连贯的语言表述出来和作者共鸣。

【题目】

One trip for their Jack Russell terrier in a planes cargo hold was enough to convince Alysa Binder and Dan Wiesel that owners needed a better option to get their pets from one city to another.

On Tuesday, the first flight for the husband-and-wife teams Pet Airways, the first-ever all-pet airline, took off from Republic Airport in Farmingdale, NY.

All commercial airlines allow a limited number of small pets to fly in the cabin. Others must travel as checked bags or in the cargo hold a dark and sometimes dangerous place where temperatures can vary wildly.

Binder and Wiesel used their consulting backgrounds and business savvy to start Pet Airways in 2005. The last four years have been spent designing their fleet of five planes according to new four-legged requirements, dealing with FAA regulations and setting up airport schedules.

The two say theyre overwhelmed with the response. Flights on Pet Airways are already booked up for the next two months.

Pet Airways will fly a pet between five major citiesNew York, Washington, Chicago, Denver, and Los Angeles. The $250 one-way fare is comparable to pet fees at the largest US airlines.

For owners the big difference is service. Dogs and cats will fly in the main cabin of a Suburban Air Freight plane, retooled and lined with carriers in place of seats. Pets (about 50 on each flight) will be escorted to the plane by attendants that will check on the animals every 15 minutes during flight. The pets are also given pre-boarding walks and bathroom breaks. And at each of the five airports it serves, the company has created a Pet Lounge for future fliers to wait and sniff before flights.

A trip from New York to Los Angeles, for example, will take about 24 hours. On that route, pets will stop in Chicago, have a bathroom break, play time, dinner, and bunk for the night before finishing the trip the next day.

Amanda Hickey of Portland, Ore. is one of the new airlines first customers. Her seven-year-old terrier-pinscher mix Mardi and two-year-old puggle Penny are taking their first flight soon.

Hickey said the service was a welcome alternative to flying her dogs in cargo when she transplants them from her soon-to-be Denver home to Chicago to stay while she and her fiance travel to Aruba to get married.

For a little bit more money, I have peace of mind, she said.

【1】Jack Russell is probably ______.

D. Alysa Binder and Dan Wiesel

【3】 What does the underlined word savvy in the fourth paragraph probably mean?

【题目】阅读下面的文字,完成下列各题。

把匕首藏在哪里

向东

我把匕首藏在怀里。我觉得这样对我不是多安全,到时候动起手来对方要是一推我,匕首就可能刺进我的心脏,我不能这么藏。

我把匕首掖进腰间。这样做我觉得不是太舒服,一个硬邦邦的家伙顶着腰,还没有动手就有一种被别人拿下的感觉。我把双手往上举了举,知道是自己没把匕首掖对地方,就急忙把匕首从腰间拔出来。

我必须把匕首藏在一个又安全又能在关键时刻派上用场的地方。我往前回忆自己看过的武打功夫片,突然就想到了美国大片《第一滴血》里史泰龙扮演的那个硬汉的匕首是藏在马靴里的。我觉得藏在马靴里比较科学。

我到商场里花五十块钱买了一双过了时的马靴穿上。我把匕首藏在马靴里,把风衣的领子立起来,迈步出了门。

街上人来人往川流不息没人注意我,这让我心里很安慰,我既然是个凶手,如果没有人注意我就会安全很多。我想在人群中寻找我要攻击的目标,我知道这是徒劳的。现在是上班时间,马经理一定在他的办公室,再说马经理出入有车,我这么寻找肯定发现不了他。

经过福大爷的修鞋摊,我想远远地绕过去,还是被福大爷喊住了。福大爷从头到脚打量了我一番,那眼神像是在看马戏团里敲锣的猴子。福大爷说小子,打扮得跟绑匪似的在街上瞎溜达什么。

福大爷这么一说把我吓得一怔。我说福大爷你胡说什么,我没事这不遛大街玩吗。

福大爷说你不是在什么大酒店当保安吗,怎么突然就成了大街上的便衣警察了?我说福大爷你不知道,酒店欠我一年的工资不给我,老子不给他干了。

福大爷摇摇头,说把你的马靴脱下来。我一惊,说福大爷,我可什么也没有做呀。福大爷说,这么好的马靴打上掌可以多穿几年,快脱下我给它们钉上掌。

我说谢您了福大爷,我知道您和我爸是老哥们儿,您不会跟我要钱,可我现在有急事。说完赶紧跑了。

我想真是危险,要是让福大爷发现了我的秘密,那我什么也干不成了。看来,把匕首藏在马靴里也不是万全之策。

我拐进了一家医院,我说医生麻烦你给我打上绷带。那个头发脱落殆尽的男医生奇怪地打量着我,眼睛里充满疑惑。我说我给你钱!医生摸了一下我的脑门子,说给钱也不行,这是我们的医德。他随手写了一行字递给我,说你最好到这里去看一看。我认得那行字,是一家治疗精神病的医院。

我花了八十块钱到一家按摩院好说歹说让人把我的胳膊脱了臼。花了三十块钱买了一个准备出院的骨折病人的X光片子。我拿着片子拖着胳膊又花了一百二十块钱到一家私人诊所上了夹板打了绷带。这一番折腾让我浑身直冒冷汗。这更增加了我的仇恨,马经理,今天我要给你点颜色看看!今天不把拖欠我的工资给我,我就……

我用白布包了匕首,把它放进夹板里,正正好好,不露痕迹,天衣无缝。我觉得自己这么聪明没考上大学,真是白搭了。进了酒店大厅,富丽堂皇的水晶吊灯炫得我几乎睁不开眼。我用另一只手扶了扶挂在胸前的绷带,生怕匕首会反射出光来。服务员点头向我问好。我仰着头说我找你们马经理。服务员到吧台拨了个电话微笑着对我说,马经理不在。

我说我可以等。

我又说我可以等!

一会儿过来四个保安,说马经理有请。

我对走在身边的四个保安说,哥们儿,去年我也和你们一样在这里当保安。他们表情漠然没一个人说话。我想他们怎么和我那时一个德性!

我终于见到马经理了。马经理从老板椅上站起来,有力地握住了我吊着绷带的那只手。我一阵撕心裂肺的疼痛。我知道机会来了,只要我把藏在夹板里的匕首突然掏出来,就可以轻松地刺进马经理肥胖的身体。我瞥了一下周围的保安,他们似乎对我没有任何警惕。

我……

(有删改)

1下列对小说有关内容的分析和概括,最恰当的两项是( )

A.小说借一个曾经的酒店保安讨要工资的事件,写出了社会中小人物的悲哀,表现了要关注社会弱势群体的主题。

B.男医生拒绝了“我”打绷带的请求,可以看出他的医德,但他又恶意地推荐我到精神病医院,又可见其缺德。

C.“我”为了能合理地打上绷带不惜花钱施起苦肉计,终于把匕首藏在一个安全又能派上用场的地方。这一情节幽默搞笑,令人放松。

D.酒店大厅里“炫得我几乎睁不开眼”的富丽堂皇的水晶吊灯与我落魄的生活状况形成对比,也引出马经理的出场,为下文做铺垫。

E.作者运用了心理描写、动作描写、语言描写、神态描写等方法来刻画人物,突出了人物性格,使人物形象栩栩如生。

【题目】 Fear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head, according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.

Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting(收缩)and pumping blood around their bodies, compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggested that the

heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.

Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said, Our study show for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart.

The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr. Garfinkel said, The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we dont see---and guide whether we see fear.

To further understand this relationship, the scientists also used a brain scanner(扫描仪)to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a persons feeling of fear.

We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain speak to each ther to change our feelings and reduce fear Dr. Garfinkel said.

We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders, and also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder.

【1】 What is the finding of the study?

A. Ones heart affects how he feels fear.

B. Fear is a result of ones relaxed heartbeat.

C. Fear has something to do with ones health.

D. Ones fast heartbeats are likely to cause fear.

【2】The study was carried out by analyzing .

A. volunteers heartbeats when they saw terrible pictures

B. the time volunteers saw fearful pictures and their health conditions

C. volunteers reactions to horrible pictures and data from their brain scans

D. different pictures shown to volunteers and their heart-brain communication

【3】 Which of the following is closest in meaning to mechanism in Paragraph 6?

A. Order

B. System

C. Machine

D. Treatment.

【4】 This study may contribute to .

A. treating anxiety and stress better

B. explaining the cycle of fear and anxiety

C. finding the key to the heart-brain communication

D. understanding different fears in our hearts and heads
