Glass skyscrapers(摩天大楼) stand tall over our cities. They look beautiful, reflecting the clouds and sky. But that's what makes them dangerous for birds.
It was reported that from Sept. 13 to 14, nearly 300 birds died after crashing into the World Trade Centre towers in New York City. “I was totally shocked,” said Melissa Breyer. “It was like a nightmare.” Breyer volunteers in an organization for bird lovers.
The US Fish & Wildlife Service guesses that each year, up to one billion birds collide(相撞) with glass in the USA and many of them die. But this isn't just a problem in the USA.
“The situation in China is equally shocking,” said Li Binbin, a professor of Environmental Sciences at Duke Kunshan University, Jiangsu. Li is leading China's first research team for bird deaths by collision.
If it's such a big problem, why don't we ever hear about it? CGTN said dead birds were quickly swept up by cleaners or eaten by other animals. Meanwhile, Li said there was a lack of research data about this problem in China.
“As a result, bird collision gets no attention from policymakers(政策制定者) or real estate developers(房地产开发商),” said CGTN. “Nobody feels a need to make buildings more bird-friendly.”
“Before humans created glass buildings, birds had freedom to fly safely. Given that humans are the ones who created the problem, we ought to find the solutions,” said Liao Shuyue, a student volunteer in the Duke Kunshan programme.
“Birds are confused(迷惑的) by reflections and lights on buildings,” said the Audubon Society, “so lights should be turned off at night.” The problem of reflections can be solved with simple technologies. For example, just putting stickers onto glass windows can help the birds. However, many people think stickers are ugly. In this case, patterned glass(印花玻璃) can be used on new buildings. For old buildings, ultraviolet paint(紫外线涂料) can be put on the windows. Humans can't see the ultraviolet paint, but birds can.
1. According to Melissa Breyer, what does the “nightmare” refer to?______
2. How many birds fly into glass buildings each year in the USA?______
3. Why does bird collision attract little attention in China according to Li Binbin?______
4. What responsibility does Liao Shuyue think humans should take?______
5. What can we do to prevent this problem?______

玻璃摩天大楼在我们的城市上空高高耸立。它们看起来很漂亮，倒映着云朵和天空。但这正是它们对鸟类构成危险的原因。
据报道，9月13日至14日，近300只鸟在撞上纽约世贸中心大楼后死亡。“我完全震惊了，”梅利莎·布雷耶说。“这就像一场噩梦。”布雷耶在一个鸟类爱好者组织做志愿者。
美国鱼类和野生动物管理局猜测，在美国，每年多达10亿只鸟会与玻璃相撞，其中很多会死亡。但这不仅仅是美国的问题。
“中国的情况同样令人震惊，”江苏昆山杜克大学环境科学教授李彬彬说。李彬彬正在领导中国第一个研究鸟类碰撞死亡的团队。
如果这是一个如此大的问题，为什么我们从来没有听说过呢？中国国际电视台（CGTN）称，死鸟会很快被清洁工清扫掉，或者被其他动物吃掉。与此同时，李彬彬说，中国关于这个问题的研究数据匮乏。
“因此，鸟类碰撞问题没有得到政策制定者或房地产开发商的关注，”中国国际电视台说。“没有人觉得有必要让建筑物对鸟类更友好。”
“在人类建造玻璃建筑之前，鸟类可以自由安全地飞行。既然人类是制造这个问题的人，我们就应该找到解决办法，”昆山杜克大学项目的学生志愿者廖舒月说。
“鸟类会被建筑物上的倒影和灯光迷惑，”奥杜邦协会说，“所以晚上应该关灯。”倒影的问题可以用简单的技术解决。例如，只需在玻璃窗上贴贴纸就能帮助鸟类。然而，很多人认为贴纸很难看。在这种情况下，新建筑可以使用印花玻璃。对于旧建筑，可以在窗户上涂紫外线涂料。人类看不到紫外线涂料，但鸟类可以看到。
1. 根据梅利莎·布雷耶的说法，“噩梦”指的是什么？______
2. 美国每年有多少只鸟撞上玻璃建筑？______
3. 根据李彬彬的说法，为什么鸟类碰撞问题在中国很少受到关注？______
4. 廖舒月认为人类应该承担什么责任？______
5. 我们可以做些什么来防止这个问题？______
