Question

【题目】When traveling in the Canadian Rockies by car, I often notice a road sign that says, “A fed bear is a dead bear.” , I did not get it. Why is a fed bear a dead one? According to a friend, many travelers used to throw their food from their cars for the bears. , the bears turned to the roadside for food and slowly lost their ability to take care of themselves. When winter came, fewer travelers took to the mountains, which less food for the bears, some of whom starved or frozen to death.

This reminded me of a scientific experiment. Some white mice were __ into two groups. One group spent their days only eating and sleeping, the other, fed only with half the amount of food , had to search for food. Half a year later, scientists found that the mice that had to search for their own food were , while the fully fed ones were either ill or dead. It was that the underfed white mice, in the of searching for their food, had kept healthy by exercising in finding food, being adaptable, and their immunity(免疫功能).
