10、y, I figured out a way to control my impatience: Id count to 100,along with the slow back-and-forth sway or the calm and steady strokes of her back.

18、Museum of Natural History, found that as small river systems change over time, they spur the evolution of new species. The findings also reveal previously unknown bird species in the Amazon that are only found in small areas next to these dynamic river systems, putting them at high risk of extinctio

19、n.The lowland rainforests of the Amazon River basin harbor(藏匿) more diversity than any other ecosystem on the planet. It is also a globally important biome(生物群落) containing about 18 percent of all trees on Earth and carrying more fresh water than the next seven largest river basins combined. Researc

20、hers have long wondered and hotly debated how the Amazons rich biodiversity arose and accumulated.“Early evolutionary biologists like Alfred Russel Wallace noticed that many species of primates and birds differ across opposite riverbanks in the Amazon,”said the studys lead author Lukas Musher. “More

21、over, accumulating geological evidence has suggested that these rivers are highly dynamic, moving around the South American landscape over relatively short time periods, on the order of thousands or tens of thousands of years.”To investigate how the movement of rivers across the landscape has influe

22、nced the accumulation of bird species in the Amazon, the researchers sequenced the genomes(基因组) of six species of Amazonian birds.Because these rivers move around the landscape at different time scales, their movements can have varying outcomes for bird species: when river rearrangements occur quick

23、ly, populations of birds on each side can combine before theyve had time to differ; when river changes happen slowly, species have a longer time to diverge from one another.8What does the underlined word “spur” in Paragraph 1 mean?AStimulate.BRenew.CPursue.DInterrupt.9What have researchers debated o
