But for real trees, well, its harder to uproot. “Because its a sessile organism, literally, rooted into the ground, it is unable to leave and go elsewhere.“ Mario Pesendorfer, a behavioral ecologist at the Cornell
31、Lab of Ornithology. “When a tree first starts growing in a certain area, its likely that the climatic envelope, so the temperature, humidity, soil composition and so on suits it, because it would otherwise be unable to grow from a seedling. But as it ages, these conditions may change and the area ar
32、ound it may no longer be suitable for its offspring.“And if that happens? Walnuts, hazelnuts, chestnuts, oaks, pinesmany rely exclusively on so-called “scatter-hoarders,“ like birds, to move their hefty seeds to new locales. “Many members of the family Corvidaethe crows, jays and magpiesare scatter-
33、hoarders, meaning they like to store food for the winter, which they then subsequently retrieve.“Or not. And when they do forget something, a seedling has a chance to grow, sometimes a good distance away. “The Clarks nutcracker, which is found in alpine regions of western North America, is definitel
34、y the rock star among the scatter-hoarding corvids. They hide up to 100,000 seeds per year, up to 30 kilometers away from the seed source, and have a very close symbiotic relationship with several pine species, most notably the whitebark pine.”Pesendorfer and his colleagues catalogue the seed-scatte
35、ring activities of the Clarks nutcracker and its cousins in a new review paper, in the journal The Condor: Ornithological Applications. They also write that, as trees outgrow their ideal habitats in the face of climate change, or battle new insects and disease, these flying ecosystem engineers could
36、 be a big help replanting trees. Its a solution, Pesendorfer says, thats good for usgetting birds to do the work is cheap and effective and it could give vulnerable oaks and pines the option to truly “make like a tree and leave.“56. According to the article, what makes birds help trees move from one
37、 place to another? _.A. They want to make the environment better for survivalB. They want to change the trees into another kindC. They want to store the nuts for winter survivalD. They are forced to help trees to survive57. Which does the underlined word in the last paragraph mean? _.A. growing in a

Birds rely on nuts to surviveC. Trees help fight air pollution D. Birds make trees in dangerB One hundred
39、 years ago, “Colored“ was the typical way of referring to Americans of African descent. Twenty years later, it was purposefully dropped to make way for “Negro.“ By the late 1960s, that term was overtaken by “Black.“ And then, at a press conference in Chicago in 1988, Jesse Jackson declared that “Afr
40、ican American“ was the term to welcome. This one was chosen because it echoed the labels of groups, such as “Italian Americans“ and “Irish Americans,“ that had already been freed of widespread discrimination.A centurys worth of calculated name changes point to the fact that naming any group is a pol
41、itically freighted exercise. A 2001 study cataloged all the ways in which the term “Black“ carried connotations (涵义) that were more negative than those of “African American.“But if it was known that “Black“ people were viewed differently from “African Americans,“ researchers, until now, hadnt identi
42、fied what that gap in perception was derived from. A recent study, conducted by Emory Universitys Erika Hall, found that “Black“ people are viewed more negatively than “African Americans“ because of a perceived difference in socioeconomic status. As a result, “Black“ people are thought of as less co
43、mpetent and as having colder personalities.The studys most striking findings shed light on the racial discriminations permeating the professional world. Even seemingly harmless details on a CV, it appears, can tap into recruiters(招聘人员)discriminations. A job application might mention affiliations（关系）
44、 with groups such as the “Wisconsin Association of African-American Lawyers“ or the “National Black Employees Association,“ the names of which apparently have consequences, and are also beyond their members control.In one of the studys experiments, subjects were given a brief description of a man fr
45、om Chicago with the last name Williams. To one group, he was identified as “African-American,“ and another was told he was “Black.“ With little else to go on, they were asked to estimate Mr. Williams salary, professional standing, and educational background.The “African-American“ group estimated tha
46、t he earned about $ 37,000 a year and had a two-year college degree. The “Black“ group, on the other hand, put his salary at about $ 29,000, and guessed that he had only “some“ college experience. Nearly three-quarters of the first group guessed that Mr. Williams worked at a managerial level, while
47、only 38.5 percent of the second group thought so.Halls findings suggest theres an argument to be made for electing to use “African American,“ though one cant help but get the sense that its a decision that papers over the urgency of continued progress. Perhaps a new phrase is needed, one that can bring everyone one big step closer to realizing Du Bois original, idealistic hope: “Its not the name-its the Thing that counts.“59. W
