27、 paper was invented in China?

Along the way are tales of kings and queens, hot air balloonsand monkeys in space. T
28、ravel through 100 of the most unbelievable years in world history and learn why being a Roman Emperor wasnt always as good as it sounds, how the Hundred Years War didnt actually last for 100 years and why Spencer Perceval holds a rather unfortunate record. CHRONOLOGICA is an informative and entertai
29、ning tour into history, beautifully illustrated and full of unbelievable facts. While CHRONOLOGICA tells the stories of famous people in history such as Thomas Edison and Alexander the Great, this book also gives an account of the lives of lesser-known individuals including the explorer Mungo Park a

This complete but brief historical collection is certain to entertain readers young and old, and guaranteed to present even the biggest history lover with something new!56. What is CHRONOLOGICA according to the next?AA biography. BA travel guide. CA history book. DA scien
31、ce fiction. 57. How does the writer recommend CHRONOLOGICA to readers?ABy giving details of its collection. BBy introducing some of its contents. CBy telling stories at the beginning. DBy comparing it with other books. BBefore birth, babies can tell the difference between loud sounds and voices. The
32、y can even distinguish their mothers voice from that of a female stranger. But when it comes to embryonic learning (胎 教), birds could rule the roost. As recently reported in The Auk: Ornithological Advances, some mother birds may teach their young to sing even before they hatch 第 6 页 共 12 页(孵化). New
33、-born chicks can then imitate their moms call within a few days of entering the world. This educational method was first observed in 2012 by Sonia Kleindorfer, a biologist at Flinders University in South Australia, and her colleagues. Female Australian superb fairy wrens were found to repeat one sou
34、nd over and over again while hatching their eggs. When the eggs were hatched, the baby birds made the similar chirp to their mothersa sound that served as their regular “feed me!” call. To find out if the special quality was more widespread in birds, the researchers sought the red-backed fairy wren,
35、 another species of Australian songbird. First they collected sound data from 67 nests in four sites in Queensland before and after hatching. Then they identified begging calls by analyzing the order and number of notes. A computer analysis blindly compared calls produced by mothers and chicks, rank
36、ing them by similarity. It turns out that baby red-backed fairy wrens also emerge chirping like their moms. And the more frequently mothers had called to their eggs, the more similar were the babies begging calls. In addition, the team set up a separate experiment that suggested that the baby birds
37、that most closely imitated their moms voice were rewarded with the most food. This observation hints that effective embryonic learning could signal neurological (神经系统的) strengths of children to parents. An evolutionary inference can then be drawn. “As a parent, do you invest in quality children, or
38、do you invest in children that are in need?” Kleindorfer asks. “Our results suggest that they might be going for quality. ”58. The underlined phrase in Paragraph 1 means“ ”. A. be the worst B. be the bestC. be the as bad D. be just as good59. What are Kleindorfers findings based on?A. Similarities b

A century ago, the resource in question was oil. Now similar concerns
41、ares being raised by the giants（巨头）that deal in data, the oil of the digital age. The most valuable firms are Google, Amazon, Facebook and Microsoft. All look unstoppable. Such situations have led to calls for the tech giants to be broken up. But size alone is not a crime. The giants success has ben
42、efited consumers. Few want to live without search engines or a quick delivery. Far from charging consumers high prices, many of these services are free (users pay, in effect, by handing over yet more data). And the appearance of new-born giants suggests that newcomers can make waves, too. But there
43、is cause for concern. The internet has made data abundant, all-present and far more valuable, changing the nature of data and competition. Google initially used the data collected from users to target advertising better. But recently it has discovered that data can be turned into 第 7 页 共 12 页new ser
44、vices: translation and visual recognition, to be sold to other companies. Internet companies control of data gives them enormous power. So they have a “Gods eye view” of activities in their own markets and beyond. This nature of data makes the antitrust measures of the past less useful. Breaking up
45、firms like Google into five small ones would not stop remaking themselves: in time, one of them would become great again. A rethink is required and as a new approach starts to become apparent, two ideas stand out. The first is that antitrust authorities need to move form the industrial age into the
46、21st century. When considering a merger(兼并), for example, they have traditionally used size to determine when to step in. They now need to take into account the extent of firms data assets(资产) when assessing the impact of deals. The purchase price could also be a signal that an established company is buying a new-born threat. When this takes place, especially when a new-born company has no revenue to speak of, the regulators should raise red flags. The second principle is to loosen the control
