任务型阅读

    For a bird, to fly hundreds or thousands of miles each spring and fall is a difficult and dangerous journey, one that not all birds can survive.  There is more than one single reason for different birds to migrate(迁徙), but it all comes down to survival.

    Birds are migrating for a meal.

    For all birds, one of the main driving forces behind migration is food. If all birds were to stay in the same places year-round, food there would become not enough.  But as the food supplies decrease in the fall, they return to the southern areas.

   

    Over millions of years, birds have developed different migration patterns, times and destinations. This helps birds take advantage of a wide variety of suitable conditions to raise their young, which increases the survival chances of the young birds.

    Birds are migrating because of climate changes.

    Changes in climate can affect migration. Many birds leave the Arctic for example, when temperatures begin to fall. They need warmer habitats. Similarly, the hottest regions can be an unpleasant environment for raising young birds.

    Birds are migrating because of predators.

    Habitats that have rich food sources also attract a greater number of predators who may kill birds.  Many birds even migrate to specialized habitats that are nearly inaccessible to predators, such as coastal cliffs or rocky offshore islands.

A.So why do birds migrate?

B.Birds are migrating for their young.

C.So how do young birds migrate?

D.Birds are migrating because of diseases.

E. It is beneficial to lay eggs further north in cooler areas.

F. Birds that migrate to different habitats can avoid being eaten by predators.

G. As food sources are rich in the north each spring, millions of birds migrate from south to those areas.

    It is time that parents often find it difficult to win their children's trust and they always forget how they themselves felt when young.{#blank#}2{#/blank#} It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Adults worry more easily. Most of them plan things ahead.

    Young people make their parents angry with their choices in clothes, in entertainment and in music. But they do not mean to cause any trouble: It just shows that they feel cut off from the adult's world, and they have not yet been accepted into their world.{#blank#}3{#/blank#} And if their parents do not like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the young people very happy.

    Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents to say “yes” to what you do.{#blank#}4{#/blank#} It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents' control.

A Diet Without Enough Protein Can Cause Depression

    Depression is a condition so common, the World Health Organization (WHO) calls it "a leading cause of disability."

    Difficulty in falling asleep, loss of appetite, and loss of ability to concentrate are just a few of the other effects of depression. WHO estimates that worldwide, at any one time, 350 million people suffer from the condition. While life events such as the loss of a spouse or a job may create a happening of depression, many cases come from within and are not caused by a life event.

    Now scientists are working on a new aspect of cure: nutrition. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} The Indian Journal of Psychiartry reports that both before and during a happening of depression, those with the condition will show a "poor appetite…" {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Many cases of depression, if not most cases, affect those who don't eat properly.

    So what does protein have to do with all this? It all comes down to amino acids (氨基酸). Proteins are made up of amino acids, chemicals known as the "building blocks of life." There are 20 different amino acids. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Both the human brain and nervous system use amino acids as a substance that creates a signal from one brain cell to another or one nerve cell to another, thus relaying information between the cells. What the final result then? {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    Since amino acids make up protein, a diet which lacks in protein will cause weaker communication between the brain cells. This lessens the signal being sent from one brain cell to the next during a thought. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} This is why depression can often express itself as anger or aggression.

A. The ultimate effect is how we think.

B. Don't ruin your appetite by eating between meals.

C. Skipping meals itself can create a depressed mood.

D. A new research suggests that nutrition can lessen some of the risks of depression.

E. India is perhaps the world's leader in researching the connection between diet and depression.

F. Many of them are made by the human body, but nine others, the "essential" amino acids, must be eaten in one's diet.

G. The process can lead to twisted signals, which can not only lead to depression, but also, according to many scientists, aggression.
