17、hat many apples being 36 to kids as part of the National School Lunch Program 2022 网络教学测试 1 4were ending up in the trash, almost untouched. But unlike others, they 37 if the reason was more complicated(复杂的) than simply that the kids didnt want the fruit . They thought the fact that the apples were b

18、eing served 38 , rather than sliced (切成片的), was doing the fruit no favor. And they wanted to prove this idea. They carried out a pilot study (初步研究) at eight schools and found that fruit consumption(消耗) 39 by more than 60 percent when apples were served sliced. They then made a follow-up study at six

19、 other schools, which not only showed the same result, but further 40 it.

40、 cage. We lived near a wood, and every evening at dusk the mockingbirds would come and rest in the tree and sing.

43、owing morning when I went to see how my bird was doing, I discovered it on the floor of the cage, dead. I was shocked! What had happened? I had taken excellent care of my little bird, or so I thought. Arthur Wayne, the famous ornithologist, happened to be visiting my father at the time and, hearing

44、me crying over the death of my bird, explained what had happened: “A mother mockingbird, finding her young in a cage, will sometimes bring it poisonous(有毒的)berries.

Other pollinators(传粉昆虫)like butter

48、flies are also hard to survive. Loss of food sources (来源) is a key reason for the fall in their populations. But city gardens can provide important food for pollinators, according to the finding of a new study. Nicholas Tew is a scientist at the University of Bristol in England. He was curious about

49、 how much food could be provided in different types of landscapes. Tew and a team of researchers looked at the information they collected from 12 sites across the United Kingdom. The team studied three landscape types: city areas, farms and nature reserves. They recorded 536 types of flowering plant

50、s. They found cities had much more flowering plants than other areas. People often plant them for their beauty. Farm sites and nature reserves had fewer types of plants.
