     If your mother wants to tell you something, she uses words. Birds cannot talk as we do. But some birds
can make sounds to warn their young of danger. They have their own way to make the young birds do certain
things.
     The jackdaw is a kind of blackbirds that lives in Europe. Jackdaws live together in flocks (群). Young
jackdaws do not know their enemies. When an older jackdaw sees a dog, it makes a loud rattling (格格响的)
sound. The younger birds know this sound means an enemy is nearby. The sound warns them to know their
enemies.
     If a young jackdaw is in a dangerous place, a jackdaw parent flies over him from behind. The parent bird
flies low over the young bird's back. The parent's tail feathers (羽毛) move quickly from side to side. It is
trying to say, "Follow me."
     At the same time, the parent calls out, "Key-aw, key-aw." The parent means, "Fly home with me." The
young bird then follows the older home.
     Young jackdaws do not have to learn what certain sounds mean. They know the meaning of these sounds
from the time they hatch.

If you are a 30-plus plain Jane, or if you are not a local fresh graduate, get ready for the embarrassment(尴尬) in the job market. And you are just one of the millions to face discrimination（歧视）.
About 85 percent of the 3,424 people covered by a survey in 10 big cities, including Beijing and Shanghai, said discrimination in work and employment（就业） did exist. Also, the survey results given on Friday showed that 58 percent thought the problem to be severe（严重）.
Appearance, height and gender are the most discriminative categories（范畴）, the Beijing Morning Post reported.
Some requirements could be funny. The newspaper said Beijing citizen Zhang Meng, who had more than 10 years’ driving experience, failed to get a job because his possible employers considered his name to be “unlucky”.
“Meng”, they said, literally(字面上)means “rush” in Chinese, which made him more accident prone（倾向）than others.
Employers discriminate against people from certain regions or areas, such as Central China’s Henan Province, because of the bad impression they have about them. Beijing citizens, too, have their share of bad luck because they are generally considered lazy.
Cai Dingjian, a professor from China University of Political Science and Law, who headed the survey, said such requirements, which are not connected with the job itself, violate（侵犯）people’s equal right to look for a career. “It violates basic human rights,” he said to the newspaper.
Cai said governments should pay attention to such discriminations because they exist not only in companies, but are also practiced by them. One example is that civil servants(公务员) are usually required to have a pleasant personality.
Director of the labour law committee under the All China Lawyers Association
Jiang Junlu said the lack of related laws was at the root of all discriminations.
46. Zhang Meng failed to get a job because __________.
A. he had made more mistakes than others
B. he lacked driving experience
C. he was considered to have an unlucky name
D. he couldn’t find a pleasant employer
47. What is people’s response to discrimination in job market?
A. They think it is unfair but necessary due to the large population of China.
B. It does exist in certain regions, but is not so serious.
C. Something must be done to stop it by governments.
D. It is a local problem and isn’t worth much concern.
48. What can be an effective way to fight against discrimination according to the passage?
A. To fine companies which practice discrimination.
B. To make laws related to discrimination.
C. To stop more people moving into cities.
D. To train people those who are poor in skills.
