Have you seen any scarecrows (稻草人)? In the countryside of our country, some villagers like to set up some scarecrows in the fields in order to prevent birds from harming their crops. They think that this can play a role in driving away birds. In fact, not only farmers love to use scarecrows, but also some airports have installed scarecrows in such a developed technology today, which plays a very good role in driving away birds. Some people will say that birds are not fools, and they will come back to eat after a long time. So do the birds really feel scared? Can scarecrows really play a role in driving away birds? Not very — unless you're willing to put some extra(额外)effort into them.

While traditional scarecrows who couldn't move do work against "pest birds" (eg. crows and blackbirds), the effect is almost always temporary (暂时的). Over time, the birds get used to scarecrows who couldn't move and reuse their destructive (破坏性的)habits.

However, a few tricks can up your scarecrow's game. Researchers have learned that those with realistic facial features(特征)and brightly colored clothes are better at driving away birds. Also, moving a scarecrow around every few days often helps. According to several studies, flailing(大幅波动) scarecrows get the very best results.

 阅读A、B、C、D四篇材料,从每小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。

"Happiness is a habit," says Talia Soen, CEO of Happy Things, a platform (平台) that helps you develop those habits through daily lives. "Many people think happiness is hard to achieve, but we want to make it easy to understand and teachable." she says, "Let's examine the habits of happy people."

The experience of joy is related to the good, meaningful life. Happiness can be found in the small moments of our daily lives. For example, showing thankful feeling has been proved to increase happiness. Take a moment to think about the help you receive from others and thank them deeply. It can bring great joy to your life.

Reducing stress can improve your overall happiness. It's not a good idea to worry about too much. Soen suggests that spending time in nature is helpful for stress reduction. Even if you don't have time or access to go outdoors all year round, you can feel better by listening to nature sounds. And a study has shown that people feel less stressed if they have two to five hours of free time every day.

"There have been several studies on happiness and exercise," Soen says. "Many studies show that our happiness levels are influenced by moving our bodies a little bit more." The exact reason remains unclear, but even short periods of exercise can achieve this. As Soen mentioned earlier, exercising outdoors can have a double influence.

Having strong social relationships, such as friends, family, or other meaningful connections, can contribute to happiness. These relationships provide support when you need it. A researcher says, "Happy people spend more time with their friends and family members and are simply around other people more often." So, why not have lunch with your family or reach out to an old friend?

As you can see, happiness is all around us as long as we develop good habits.

What comes to mind when you hear the phrase "space meat"? It sounds quite weird. But in fact it could be the future of the human diet.

A Russian astronaut recently "grew" meat aboard the International Space Station . Yes, you read that right- he grew it using cells (细胞) provided by an Israeli company called Aleph Farms. But in fact, he was not the first person to create lab-grown (实验室培育的) meat. Dutch scientist Mark Post grew the first lab meat in 2013.

But why bother growing meat in a lab when we can get the real thing from cows? For one thing, lab-grown meat is healthier. "We gain greater control over what the meat consist of such as its fat content (脂肪含量)." Mark Post said in an interview. Lab- grown meat is also free of the chemicals that are used on farms, such as pesticides (农药) and growth hormones (激素).

Are there other ways to replace regular meat? McDonald is trying to do so with the P.L.T. which stands for plant, lettuce (生菜) and tomato. The first P.L.T. burgers are already being sold in Canada according to the fast food company.

The "meat" in the P.L.T. is made out of Beyond Meats plant-based meat substitute (替代品) created by a company from Los Angels, US. The company uses pea, rice and bean proteins (蛋白质) to produce patties (肉饼) that look and taste like real meat.

Experts doubt whether products are halthier than real meat. But plant-based meat has already proven to be a success with several fast food companies already offering such products on their menus, according to Fox Business.
