32、ly, Keisha opened her notebook to her essay.

Could you still find your way home? A loggerhead turtle（海龟）could.2018-3 英语高考（天津卷）第 5 页共 9 页According to
39、Dr. Ken Lohmann, loggerheads have a magnetic（磁力的）sense based on Earths magnetic field. It helps them locate the best spots for finding food and their home beaches.Scientists already know that several other animals, such as whales and honeybees, can detect（探测到）magnetic fields. The difference between
40、them and loggerheads, however, is the way they learn to use their magnetic sense. Young whales and honeybees can learn from adults. Loggerheads are abandoned as eggs.As newborn loggerheads have no adults to learn from, what helps them figure out how to use their magnetic sense? Lohmann thinks one of
41、 the cues was light on the sea. Baby loggerheads hatch only at night. However, a small amount of light reflects off the ocean. The light makes that region brighter. Heading toward the light helps them get quickly out to sea, where they can find food. Lohmann tested whether newborn loggerheads use th
42、is light source to set their magnetic “compasses”（罗盘）. He and his team put some newborns in a water tank and recorded which way they swam. Around the tank, the scientists created a magnetic field that matched the Earths. They set a weak light to the east of the magnetic field. Then they let the newb
43、orns go.At first, the newborns swam toward the light. After the scientists turned off the light, the turtles that had seen the light in the east always swam toward east. When the researchers reversed（颠倒）the magnetic field, these turtles turned around and swam toward the new “east”.This and the follo
44、w-up experiments all showed that loggerheads use light from the outside world to set their magnetic “compasses” and then remember the “correct” direction. If a turtle hatches on a brightly-lit beach, that would damage its magnetic sense forever and make survival hard for the turtle.Lohmanns work has
45、 led others to protect the habitat of this endangered species. Yet many questions about these creatures remain unanswered, and researchers have a lot to study.46. Loggerheads and whales differ in the way they _.A. bring up their young B. recognize landmarksC. detect magnetic fields D. learn to find
46、directions47. What is needed for newborn loggerheads to set their magnetic sense?A. Weak light reflected off the ocean. B. Help from adult loggerheads.C. Bright sunlight from the sky. D. Food in warmer waters.48. In the experiment, after the newborns magnetic sense was set, their moving directionwas
