AFAQs on preparing your ApplicationQ:Should I target my Application to a specific Job Opening(JO)?A:Yes.Naturally,a customized cover note will also help you focus on the key aspects of your Application that relate to the JO,but it is also in your interest to target the Application according to the responsibilities and competencies of the position.Q:What's the difference between duties and achievements?A:Duties describe the specific responsibilities of your job.They accurately reflect what you are doing or have done in each of your previous jobs.In other words,it is the "what you do" of your job.Achievements describe in specific terms "how well" you did in your job.Q:Many of my achievements are team﹣based,how do I draft them in my Application?A:You should include your team﹣based achievements in your Application.Indicate that you were part of a team,and describe your specific role in reaching the goal.FAQs on general Application guidelinesQ:Can I save my Application?A:Yes.You should save your Application when you make changes and/or update it.It is recommended that you save different versions of your Application in Word format and then edit the Application online according to the post for which you are applying.Q:Can I update my Application to apply for a new JO?A:Yes.Each time you apply for a new JO,we recommend that you review your Application and update it,if appropriate,or target it to better reflect your suitability for the new JO.Your updates will not affect the content of Applications previously submitted against other JOs.Q:Must I use up all the available characters in each section of my Application?A:No.In fact,doing so may result in an unnecessary lengthy Application.Unless you have an enormous range of experiences,there is no reason to use up all the space given.Applicants are encouraged to list their duties and achievements in a clear and brief manner.21.Which of the following descriptions best shows your achievements?A.I succeeded in directing a video presentation,assisting our group to win the first prize.B.I'm good at creating proposals for new product ideas aimed at a specific market.C.I'm in charge of the clearance,production and distribution of information material.D.I've developed various interests,ranging from oil painting to designing model.22.Unless you are eager to apply for erstwhile JO,you'd better .A.target your focus on your interest in the JOB.save your latest application in Word formatC.prepare one application with all your competenciesD.update your application to match new requirements23.Applicants are expected to in their applications.A.introduce what JOs they have previously applied toB.list the greatest achievements they have made in detailC.give key information about their experiences and achievementsD.provide the results of their tests,assessments and examinationsBNew York’s UndersideA dangerous jobSince I was a boy, I have always looked down open manholes with curiosity, so I welcomed the opportunity to explore and write about the world beneath New York City. With a group of 11 "sandhogs" —— the nickname for the workers who build New York's underground—— boarded a slow, shaky elevator lit by a single light bulb. Slowly we went down a shaft du g through 200 meters of rock. The sandhogs were building a new tunnel to bring water into the city, The present tunnel system carries more than 5.6 billion liters of water every day. That's enough water to fill more than2,200 Olympic-sized swimming pools.As we descended, it got dark and the air got cool. I looked up into darkness and down into deeper blackness, then the elevator stopped, and everyone got out. Then came the hard part, climbing another 10 meters down a long, slippery metal ladder. At the bottom was a dark tunnel filled with dust and smoke. Sandhogs were using explosives like dynamite to cut through the solid rock. The tunnel extends slowly- -only four meters a day- -and with each day come new dangers. Sandhogs live in constant fear of being hurt by sharp pieces of exploded rock. Their bodies are covered in such scars."Why do this work?" I asked Brian Gallagher, a sandhog for 16 years. Brian's father was a sandhog, too, but it is not tradition that brought him here. "It's the money," he said. An experienced sandhog earns over $100,000 a year. The rewards are well deserved. A sandhog's chances of dying on the job are far greater than those of an above- ground construction wo rker, or even a New York City police officer.“Everything down here can kill you," one sandhog said. They know many more workers will die before the tunnel is completed.A river of sewageOn another trip below the city, sewer worker Jeff Kwami showed me how the city's sewage is kept flowing smoothly. We went down a manhole wearing plastic bodysuits, gloves, and tanks of air. Everything around us was wet and slippery, as we climbed carefully down 12 meters and then stopped on a narrow concrete step. In front of me was a fast-moving river of sewage nearly two meters wide. It smelled awful. I asked Kwami, "What happens if you fall in and you're not attached to a rope?" He said if you didn't pull yourself out, you'd drown in the sewage. But unlike the dangers sandhogs face, such situations are rare. As we move through the sewer, Kwami seems calm and confident, but it's still a terrifying thought.Later, as we left the darkness and danger below, Kwami joked, "See any alligators?" Over the years, there have been stories about giant alligators living in the sewers. I tell Kwami that in 1935, the New York Times reported an alligator was pulled from a sewer. He still didn't believe it, and we laugh together as we climb back to the surface.24.The writer of the passage is .A.considering getting a job as a tunnel workerB.taking tourists into New York City’s tunnelsC.interested in what lies beneath New York CityD.reporting on the benefits of working underground.25.What danger that underground workers face is NOT mentioned?A.slippingB.being cut by rockC.drowningD.elevators falling26.Sewer workers probably carry tanks of air because .A.the smell of the sewage is badB.the tunnel is filled with smokeC.they have to dive into the sewageD.they need to clean the air in the sewer27.What would be the best heading for the last paragraph?A.Recent Alligator SightingB.The 80-Year-Old AlligatorC.How to Survive SewageD.Just a Story?CHARDCORE TANO*C is an independent Japanese music label that is known for releasing music compilations and albums focused on various forms of hardcore techno such as UK hardcore,happy hardcore,and gabber. The label was founded in 2003 by Yoshikazu Nagai(who at the time used the Akai Hito alias),originally under the name of Hardcore Tanoshii,but changed to its current name of HARDCORE TANO*C in 2007 after the release of the album HARDCORE SYNDROME. The label features a store which sells the most notable doujin(同人)music releases,and is well known for their frequent live events that are regularly organized throughout the years,including the annual TANO*C TOUR series of events and the S2TBTANO*C events done in collaboration with kors k’s S2TB Recording label.From 2011 to 2018,HARDCORE TANO*C were very closely linked with BEMANI,most notably in beatmania IIDX and SOUND VOLTEX. Many of HARDCORE TANO*C’s members were frequent contributors to BEMANI,and KONAMI even collaborated with the label for a few of their own album releases. Their presence also expanded to various other music game titles.Many guest artists have appeared in HARDCORE TANO*C compilations, including Ryu☆,kors k,DJ Shimamura,m1dy,M-Project,JAKAZiD(as Joshka),Hommarju,Camellia,lapix,C-Show,Maozon,Nhato, Dustvoxx,and Akira Complex.By the end of 2017,HARDCORE TANO*C has started to produce major artist album releases,containing licensed works done for music games by the circle’s artists. From September 2018,a sub-label directed by DJ Myosuke named HARDCORE TANO*C HARD has been established, which focuses on harsher music. HARDCORE TANO*C is also heavily involved in the 2019 rhythm game WACCA,which is published by MARVELOUS!,with nearly its entire staff contributing to the game.A song composed by various members of HARDCORE TANO*C,BATTLE NO.1,was planned to be in SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN for the The 8th KONAMI Arcade Championship,under the artist name of TANO*C SOUND TEAM. KONAMI rejected the song(likely due to their poking fun(打趣)of the BEMANI Sound Team moniker, which was at its most extreme in the time of that event),and it later appeared instead in the HARDCORE TANO*C-produced game WACCA on August 1st,2019. It also appeared in lowiro’s Arcaea as part of the Arcaea× HARDCORE TANO*C Collaboration(联动)and SEGA’s maimai でらっくすSplash. It was added to Muse Dash on February 5,2021.28.What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?A.Some basic information about HARDCORE TANO*C.B.The founder and members of HARDCORE TANO*C.C.The relationship between Yoshikazu Nagai and HARDCORE TANO*C.D.The relationship between BEMANI and HARDCORE TANO*C.29.Among the following members, who has NOT shown up in this music label ‘s compilations?A.Camellia. B.Laur. C.Maozon. D.Akira Complex.30.What can we know about the rhythm game WACCA?A.It was produced by HARDCORE TANO*C last year.B.None of MARVELOUS!’s employees is working for it.C.The song BATTLE NO.1 was included in this game.D.It had a collaboration with Muse Dash in Feb.,2021.31.Arcaea has collaborated with both HARDCORE TANO*C and WACCA. As a player of Arcaea,what should you do?A.Try playing WACCA if possible.B.Spread bad comments about HARDCORE TANO*C.C.Only cheer for the game or the artist you like.D.Ask the official staff about the song selection petulantly.DMost managers can identify the major trends of the day. But in the course of conducting research in a number of industries and working directly with companies, we have discovered that managers often fail to recognize the less obvious but profound ways these trends are influencing consumers aspirations, attitudes, and behaviors. This is especially true of trends that managers view as peripheral to their core markets Experts from Harvard Business School give some advice to managersOne strategy, known as infuse and augment, is to design a product or service that keeps most of the attributes and functions of existing products in the category but adds others that address the needs and desires unleashed by a major trend. A case in point is the Poppy range of handbags, which the firm Coach created in response to the economic downturn of 2008. The Coach brand had been a symbol of wealth and luxury for nearly 70 years, and the most obvious reaction to the downturn would have been to lower prices, However that would have risked cheapening the brand's image.Instead, they initiated consumer-research project which revealed that customers were eager to lift themselves and the country out of tough times. Using these insights, Coach launched the lower-priced Poppy handbags, which were in bright colors.and looked more youthful and playful than conventional Coach products. Creating the sub-brand allowed Coach to avoid an across-the-board price cut. In contrast to the many companies that responded to the recession by cutting prices, Coach saw the new consumer mindset as an opportunity for innovation and renewal.A more radical strategy is 'combine and transcend'. This involves combining aspects of the product's existingvalue proposition with attributes addressing changes arising from a trend. To create a novel experience - one that may land the company in an entirely new market space. At first glance, spending resources to incorporate elements of a seemingly irrelevant trend into one's core offerings sounds like it's hardly worthwhile. But consider Nike's move to integrate the digital revolution into its reputation for high-performance athletic footwear. In 2006,they teamed up with technology company Apple to launch Nike+, a digital sports kit comprising a sensor that attaches to the running shoe and a wireless receiver that connects to the user's iPad.By combining Nike's original value proposition for amateur athletes with one for digital consumers, the Nike+ sports kit and web interface moved the company from a focus on athletic apparel to a new plane of engagement with its customer.Once you have gained perspective on how trend-related changes in consumer opinions and behaviors impact on your category, you can determine which of our innovation strategies to pursue. Trends -- technological, economic, environmental, social, or political -- that affect how people perceive the world around them and shape what they expect from products and services present firms with unique opportunities for growth.32.The underlined word “peripheral”in Para graph 1 is closest in meaning to_____.A.marginalB.importantC.subjectD.relevant33.According to the second paragraph, Coach was anxious to_____.A.follow what some of its competitors were doing.B.maintain its prices throughout its range.C. safeguard its reputation as a manufacturer of luxury goods.D modify the entire look of its brand to suit the economic climate.34.What does the writer suggest about Nike's strategy?A.It was an extremely risky strategy at the time.B, it was a strategy that only a major company could afford to follow.C. It was the type of strategy that would not have been possible in the past.D It was the kind of strategy that might appear to have few obvious benefits.35.The best title for the passage is probably_____.A.Knowing more about your customers.B.Making the most of trendsC.Eyes on strategiesD.Following the advice第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

广东省2023届高三下学期3月大联考英语试卷(含解析)

广东省2023届高三下学期3月大联考英语试卷学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读知道Four Great Explorers in HistoryChristopher ColumbusItalian (1451-1506)Christopher Columbus did not discover" America, contrary to popular belief. However, he came across the continent rather accidentally while taking what he thought was a shortcut from Europe to Asia. Despite others landing there first, Columbus made Europeans more aware of this New World, leading to increased contact between the lands and ultimately the development of the modern Western world.Ferdinand MagellanPortuguese (1480-1521)Ferdinand Magellan had a dream; to visit the Maluku Islands. Magellan set off with five ships and more than 200 men, heading west via South America. Unaware how vast the Pacific was, they faced great challenges and many died. The remaining crew reached the islands, where Magellan was shot with a poisoned arrow in a fight with Mactan people, and died in 1521. Only one ship and 18men from Magellan's crew made it back to Spain. Francis DrakeEnglish (1540-1596)On becoming a ship's captain in his 20s, Francis Drake was on his way to fulfilling his dream of finding an undiscovered land in the Pacific. Drake's travels took him to the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico before finally starting a secret expedition to the western coast of North America. His circumnavigation(环球航行) helped identify the true geography of our planet.Roald AmundsenNorwegian (1872-1928)His heart set on exploring the Aretic, Roald Amundsen quit university and began his adventures via land, sea and air, first sailing through the Northwest Passage. Beaten to the North Pole, Amundsen was determined to be the first to reach the South Pole, and he was. Subsequently crossing the Arctic by air, Amundsen became one of the greatest polar explorers.1、Who contributed to the first continuous contact between Europe and America?A. Christopher Columbus.B.

Returning home from an event in honor of her late father, Warfield's car was involved in a pile-up collision in Baltimore, MD, where she is a volunteer firefighter. Noticing that one of the other cars had overturned, Warfield rushed to help calm the woman trapped inside."I started to climb in there with her, but then I was like, 'What are you doing? You're nine months pregnant,' " she said. "I ended up holding onto her to keep her in place because I wasn't sure of her injuries at the time."Megan Warfield was "just a week or so shy of her due date" when the crash occurred. And the crash apparently sent her into labor.Ignoring increasingly painful contractions(收缩), Warfield kept the trapped woman calm and ensured that she stayed in place so as not to risk worsening any injuries. When the emergency responders arrived, among them was V olunteer Paramedic Josh Daugherty, Warfield's friend. Daugherty gave aid not only to the injured woman but sent Warfield by ambulance to hospital, where, several hours later, she gave birth to her third child.According to the US Fire Administration, of the active firefighting personnel, more than half, 53percent, are volunteer firefighters. A volunteer firefighter is an unpaid professional who saves people from fires and other emergency situations. They're in charge of responding to emergency calls, putting out and preventing the spread of fires, and administering first aid to people with injuries. They may help keep people safe during and after house and building fires, car accidents, forest fires, and dangerous material incidents. All volunteer firefighters must pass strict training to become qualified.While she was pregnant, Warfield worked at the desk in her volunteer fire department. Now that she's given birth, she is already planning her return to the field.4、What did Warfield do when she got out of her damaged car?A.She called an ambulance and waited for help.B. She called her friend to take her to hospital.C.She helped calm the woman trapped in a car.D. She performed first aid to the injured woman.5、What do the underlined words "due date" in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Childbirth date.B.Father's funeral date.C. Date for becoming a career firefighter.D. Date for signing up for a volunteer firefighter.6、What can we know about volunteer firefighters?A. They do less dangerous work.B.They work without being paid.C.They need not pass strict training.D.They make up the majority of the staff.7、Which of the following can best describe Warficld?A. Kind and ambitious.B. Heroie and selfless.C. Serious and clever.D.Confident amd brave."Goblin mode" has been chosen by the public as the 202X Oxford word of the year. The term, which refers to "a type of behavior which is unapologetically self-indulgent (放纵的), lazy, or greedy, typically in a way that rejects social norms or expectations", has become the first word of the year to have been decided by public vote.Given a choice of three words, narrowed down by lexicographers(词典编辑者) from Oxford University Press (OUP), more than 340,000 English speakers around the world cast their vote.The president of Oxford Languages, Casper Grathwohl, said that while he and his colleagues were "hoping the public would enjoy being brought into the process", the level of engagement had caught them "totally by surprise"."Given the year we've just experienced, 'goblin mode' resonates(共鸣) with all of us who are feeling a little overwhelmed at this point," he added. "It's a relief to acknowledge thatwe're not always the idealized selves that we're encouraged to present on our Instagram and TikTok feeds. This has been demonstrated by the dramatic rise of platforms like BeReal where users share images of their unedited selves, often capturing self-indulgent moments in goblin mode."The winning term was first seen on Twitter in 2009, but became popular on social media in February 202X after being tweeted in a mocked-up headline.The American linguist and lexicographer Ben Zimmer said: "Goblin mode really does speak to the times and the zeitgeist, and it is certainly a 202X expression. People are looking at social norms in new ways. It gives people the licence to reject social norms and embrace new ones."Goblin mode joins previous Oxford words of the year "vax" (202X), “climate emergency"(202X), and "selfie" (2013). Other dictionaries have also selected 202X words of the year: Collins chose "permacrisis", while Cambridge Dictionaries went for "homer".8、What does Casper Grathwohl think of public engagement in choosing the 202X Oxford word?A. Surprised.B. Doubtful.C.Dissatisfied.D. Concerned.9、Why do so many people choose "goblin mode" as the 202X Oxford word of the year?A. It is popular with young people.B. It embraces the comforts of self-indulgence.C. It is highly recommended by lexieographers.D.It was first seen on Instagram and then became a hit quickly.10、What's the 202X Collins word of the year?A.Vax.B. Selfie.C.Permacrisis.D.Homer.11、What's the best title of the text?A.Goblin mode: a new word shows a new way of lifeB.Goblin mode: a new Oxford word of the year speaks to the timesC. Different dictionaries choose different hot words of the yearD.Feel the pulse of the times and society from different hot wordsIt appears that language can have a fascinating effect on the way we think about time and space. A growing number of experts believe language can influence how we think just as our thoughts and culture can shape how language develops.Cognitive scientist Lera Boroditsky, one of the pioneers of research into how language manipulates our thoughts, has shown that English speakers typically view time as a horizontal (平的) line. They tend to view time as travelling from left to right, most likely in line with how you are reading the text on this page.Languages also encode(编码) time in their grammar. In English, the future is one of three simple tenses, along with the past and the present—we say "it rained", "it rains" and "it will rain". But in German, you can say Morgen regnet, which means "it rains tomorrow"—you don't need to build the future into the grammar.But does this affect how we think? In 2013, Keith Chen, a behavioral economist at the University of California, set out to test whether people who speak languages that are futureless might feel closer to the future than those who speak other languages. For example, German, Chinese, and Japanese have no linguistic barrier between the present and the future, while “future languages”, such as English, French, Italian and Spanish, encourage speakers to view the future as something separate from the present.He discovered that speakers of futureless languages were more likely to engage in future-focused activities. They were 31% more likely to have put money into savings in any given year and had gained 39% more wealth by retirement. They were also 24% less likely to smoke and 29% more likely to be physically active.It is becoming increasingly clear that language is influencing how we think about the world around us, which is not to say that any one language is "better" than another. But being aware of how languages differ can help you think, navigate and communicate better. And while being multilingual(多语的) won't necessarily make you a genius, we all can gain a more flexible understanding of the world by learning a new language.12、What does the underlined word "manipulates" in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Weakens.B.Shapes.C.Impacts.D. Deepens.13、How does the author organize paragraph 3?A. By listing figures.B.By giving examples.C.By giving definitions.D. By explaining the reasons.14、What were speakers of futureless languages likely to do?A. Smoke and drink.B.Be mentally active.C. Spend money without restriction.D. Take part in future-focused activities.15、What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph?A.One language is much better than another.B.Being multilingual can help you become a genius.C.Learning a new language can change your way of life.D. Language has an impact on how we think about the world.二、七选五16、 Recycling is good for our planet, but it can be confusing. Can I recycle plastic bags? What about pizza cartons? Toothpaste tubes? Which bin should I use? There are so many questions, and more than half of Americans are unsure about how to recycle. ①_____ Here's a handy four-step guide on how to recycle effectively:Know what to put in the recycling bin. Keep it simple and focus on the most commonly recycled effectively:Know what to put in the recycling bin. Keep it simple and focus on the most commonly recycled items, such as paper, glass, aluminum and plastic. ②_____ Don't use the recycled symbol as a guide. “The number on the container is really for people to identify the type of resin(树脂). That's not helpful for the common consumer,” said Cody Marshall, a strategist at nonprofit Recycling Partnership.③____ It is really important to know what you cannot put in your bin. You can always check with your city or at . If you live in the US, just plug in your postcode to search. Recycling companies struggle with the same problem items: hoses(软管),cords, needles and clothing, according to Marshall, so don't put those items in your bin.Wash or clean items. Do a quick clean to make sure there is no food left in containers before you put them in the bin. ④_____ Save food for composting (堆肥) in your garden.Don't bag it. Unless you live in a place that requires it, like New York City, keep the recyclables lost in the bin. "A lot of the time, it's not safe for our employees to tear those bags open, or it takes too much time," said Keller. "⑤_____"A. Know what is not recyclable.B. The answers are not hard to find.C. A lot of bagged stuff goes right to the landfill.D.Plastic bags can be used again or returned to grocery stores.E. If you really don't know if an item is recyclable, then just throw it in the garbage.F.This is really important if you only use one bin because food items could ruin paper.G.Hard plastics like water and soft drink bottles or anything like these can be recycled.三、完形填空(15空)Muniba Mazari is Pakistan's first model and TV host who uses a wheelchair.

They fall silent after the teacher taps a “singing bowl”.These students are in a for-credit,year-long mindfulness class,which is meant to ease youth anxiety and depression and to prevent violence. For 90 minutes, three days a week, they practice a mix of yoga, sitting, and walking meditation, deep breathing, journaling, andnon-judgmental listening.Yoga and meditation have gained popularity among Americans in recent decades,supported by studies showing benefits to emotional, mental, and physical health. The centuries-old practices have roots in eastern religions, but Western culture has long focused on physical postures (姿势),breathing, and relaxation techniques.Some people have greeted the move with less than enthusiasm. Last year, an elementary school in Ohio ended its mindfulness program after parents complained it was too closely linked to religion. But many school districts are reporting success. In Richmond, California, schools have reported drops in school problems among low-income, at-risk youths. The school district in South Burlington, Vermont, introduced a successful mindfulness course as part of a health and wellness program, and now administrators there have advocated mindfulness into K-12 curriculums.Two years ago, Caverly Morgan developed the after-school mindfulness program teamed up with Allyson Copacino,who teaches yoga. After hundreds of students signed up,Principal Brian Chatard took note. The school was dealing with a student’s suicide (自杀),and few resources were available to address students’ emotional and mental health.“High school is the hardest period of time for kids,” Mr. Chatard said. “You’ve got emotional changes, physical changes, and all the soci al pressures. It’s also the onset of mental illness for some kids, depression hits, and there’s the pressure of college and sports. All these things kids do is over-whelming without having a strategy (策略)to deal with it. ” And now schools all over the country are introducing the practices.25. What do Western people value more about yoga and meditation?A. Non-judgmental listening.B. Religious meaning.C. Physical benefits.D. Journaling.26. What can we infer about the mindfulness class?A. It is supported by parents.B. It relives pressure of students.C. It mainly builds students up physically.D. It improves students’ academic performance.27. Who started the mindfulness class?A. Administrators.B. Brian Chatard.C. Caverly Morgan.D. Allyson Copacino.28. What is Mr. Chatard’s attitude towards the program?A. Supportive.B. Concerned.C. Doubtful.D. Reserved.CBob Dylan, born on May 24,1941,is an American songwriter, singer, artist and writer. He has been influential in popular music and culture for more than five decades. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when his songs showed social unrest. Early songs such as Blowing in the Wind and The Times They Are a-Changing promoted the American civil rights and anti-war movements.Dylan’s songs include a wide range of political, social and literary influences. They challenged existing pop music conventions and appealed to the growing counterculture. His recording career, spanning more than 50 years,has explored the traditions in American song,from folk,blues,and country to rock and roll, and to English, Scottish, and Irish folk music, even jazzand the Great American Songbook. He has toured steadily since the late 1980s on what has been called the Never Ending Tour. His accomplishments as a recording artist and performer have been central to his career, but songwriting is considered his greatest contribution.As a musician, Dylan has sold more than 100 million records, making him one of the best-selling artists of all time. He has also received numerous awards including eleven Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and an Academy Award. The Pulitzer Prize jury in 2008 awarded him a special citation (引言)for his influence on popular music and American culture,marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power. In May 2012, Dylan received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Barack Obama. In 2016, Dylan received the Nobel Prize in L iterature “for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition”.29. Which word best describes Dylan’s music according to Paragraph 2 ?A. Various.B. Talented.C. Personal. D .Popular.30. What is Dylan better recognized as?A. A performer.B. A singer.C. An artist.D.A songwriter.31. What made Dylan get the Nobel Prize?A. His poems about music.B. His American song tradition.C. His language style of the songs.D. His influence on America culture.DScientists in Britain have managed to teach bumblebees (大黄蜂)to pull strings to get to food and then pass on what they have learned to others in their colony (群体)—showing a high level of intelligence despite their tiny brains.Researchers at Queen Mary University of London said the experiments,often used to test the intelligence of apes (猿)and birds,showed for the first time that some insects are up to the task,and can also pass skills on through several generations.The findings add to the evidence su ggesting the ability for “culture spread” —the ability to learn and pass on knowledge and skills — may not be exclusive to humans.In the research, published in the journal PLOS Biology on Tuesday, the scientists were able to train 23 out of a group of 40 bees to pull strings with their legs and feet.The strings were attached to discs —or artificial “flowers” —containing food at their center but placed under a transparent screen. The bees,spotting the food beneath the screen, learned to pull the “flowers” out by pulling the string with their legs and feet to be able to get to it.From another group of bees given the chance to solve the task without any training, only two of 110 were successful.Another group of bees was then allowed to observe the trained bees pulling the strings,and 60 percent of them successfully learned the skill. Finally,trained bees were put in colonies, and the scientists found the technique spread successfully to a m ajority of the colony’s worker bees.Lars Chittka, a Queen Mary University professor who guided the project, said the team is inter ested in figuring out the brain processes behind the bees’ learning and teaching skills.32.
