27、erceval holds a rather unfortunate record.CHRONOLOGICA is an informative and entertaining 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
28、 account of the lives of lesser-known individuals including the explorer Mungo Park and sculptor Gutzon Borglum.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.

By giving details of its collection. B. By introducing some of its contents.第 5 页 共 10 页Red-backed fairy wrens (鹪鹩), which live in north
30、ern and eastern Australia, lay three or four eggs at a time.C. By telling stories at the beginning. D. By comparing it with other books.BBefore birth, babies can tell the difference between loud sounds and voices. They can even distinguish their mothers voice from that of a female stranger. But when
31、 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 (孵化) 。New-born chicks can then imitate their moms call within a few days of entering the world.This educa
32、tional 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 sound over and over again while hatching their eggs. When the eggs were hatched, the baby birds made
33、 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, another species of Australian songbird. First they collected sound dated from 67 nests in four si
34、tes 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, ranking them by similarity.It turns out that baby red-backed fairy wrens also emerge chirping like th
35、eir 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 that most closely imitated their moms voice were rewarded with the most food.This observation hint
36、s 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 do you invest in children that are in need?” Kleindorfer asks. “Our results suggest that they might
37、 be going for quality.”58. The underlined phrase in Paragraph 1 means “ ”.A. be the worst B. be the bestC. be just as bad D. be just as good59. What are Kleindorfers findings based on?A. Similarities between the calls moms and chicks.B. The observation of fairy wrens across Australia.C. The data col

39、 highly profitable, fast-growing industry, urging antitrust (反垄断) regulators to step in to check those who control its flow. A century ago, the resource in question was oil. Now similar concerns are being raised by the giants (巨头 ) that deal in data, the oil of the digital age. The most valuable fir
40、ms 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 benefited consumers. Few want to live without search engines or a quick 第 6 页 共 10 页delivery. Far from char
41、ging 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 is cause for concern. The internet has made data abundant, all-present and far more valuable,
42、 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 new services: translation and visual recognition, to be sold to other companies. Internet companies control of d
43、ata 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 firms like Google into five small ones would not stop remaking themselves: in time, one of them would beco
44、me great again. A rethink is requiredand as a new approach starts to become apparent, two ideas stand out.The first is that antitrust authorities need to move from the industrial age into the 21st century. When considering a merger (兼并 ) , for example, they have traditionally used size to determine
45、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
46、speak of, the regulators should raise red flags.The second principle is to loosen the control that providers of on-line services have over data and give more to those who supply them. Companies could be forced to consumers what information they hold and how many money they make form it. Governments
47、could order the sharing of certain kinds of data, with users consent.Restarting antitrust for the information age will not be easy. But if governments dont wants a data economy by a few giants, they must act soon.61. Why is there a call to break up giants?A. They have controlled the data marketB. Th
48、ey collect enormous private dataC. They no longer provide free servicesD. They dismissed some new-born giants62. What does the technological innovation in Paragraph 3 indicate?A. Data giants technology is very expensiveB. Googles idea is popular among data firmsC. Data can strengthen giants controlling positionD. Data can be turned into new services or products 63. By paying attention to firms data assets, antitrust regulators could .A. kill a new threat B. avoid the size trapC. favour bigger firms D. charge higher prices64. Wha
