26、g the written word when covering the same material?The answers to bothquestions are often“no”.The reasons relate to a variety of factors,including reduced concentration,anentertainment mindset(心态)and a tendency to multitask while consuming digital content.When reading texts of several hundred words

35、placed in education.D.Education outside the classroom cannot be ignored.DIn the race to document the species on Earth before they go extinct,researchers and citizen scientists havecollected billions of records.Today,most records of biodiversity are often in the form of photos,videos,and otherdigital
36、 records.Though they are useful for detecting shifts in the number and variety of species in an area,a newStanford study has found that this type of record is not perfect.“With the rise of technology it is easy for people to make observations of different species with the aid of amobile application,
37、”said Barnabas Daru,who is lead author of the study and assistant professor of biology in the第 7页/共 38页Stanford School of Humanities and Sciences.“These observations now outnumber the primary data that comesfrom physical specimens(标本),and since we are increasingly using observational data to investi
38、gate how speciesare responding to global change,I wanted to know:Are they usable?”Using a global dataset of 1.9 billion records of plants,insects,birds,and animals,Daru and his team testedhow well these data represent actual global biodiversity patterns.“We were particularly interested in exploring
39、the aspects of sampling that tend to bias(使有偏差)data,likethe greater likelihood of a citizen scientist to take a picture of a flowering plant instead of the grass right next to it,”said Daru.Their study revealed that the large number of observation-only records did not lead to better global coverage.
40、Moreover,these data are biased and favor certain regions,time periods,and species.This makes sense because thepeople who get observational biodiversity data on mobile devices are often citizen scientists recording theirencounters with species in areas nearby.These data are also biased toward certain
41、 species with attractive oreye-catching features.What can we do with the imperfect datasets of biodiversity?“Quite a lot,”Daru explained.“Biodiversity apps can use our study results to inform users of oversampledareas and lead them to places and even species that are not well-sampled.To improve the
42、quality ofobservational data,biodiversity apps can also encourage users to have an expert confirm the identification of theiruploaded image.”32.What do we know about the records of species collected now?A.They are becoming outdated.B.They are mostly in electronic form.C.They are limited in number.D.
43、They are used for public exhibition.33.What does Darus study focus on?A.Threatened species.B.Physical specimens.C.Observational data.D.Mobile applications.34.What has led to the biases according to the study?A.Mistakes in data analysis.B.Poor quality of uploaded pictures.C.Improper way of sampling.D
44、.Unreliable data collection devices.35.What is Darus suggestion for biodiversity apps?A.Review data from certain areas.B.Hire experts to check the records.C.Confirm the identity of the users.D.Give guidance to citizen scientists.第二节第二节（共（共 5 小题；每小题小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分分，满分 12.5 分）分）第 8页/共 38页阅读下面短文，从短文后的选
