New species(物种) discovery: Anasaitis Milesae
What is it?
Imagine a spider(蜘蛛) so small, at less than 3 mm long. This new kind of jumping spider is easy to miss. However, if you look carefully in the right place, you can find it.
Where was it found?
Tylan Berry, a spider expert from the British Arachnological Society, noticed this new species in the grounds of the University of Exeter's campus in Cornwall. He said this kind of discovery is rare as Britain is one of the best-studied countries in the world for spiders. This spider can be found in good numbers by beating(打) the lower branches of trees and in shrubs over a sheet. They also appeared in another place 48 kilometres away.
How was it identified(确认)?
At a special event called a bioblitz, where people come together to learn about and identify different living things, Berry found a spider he didn't know. After lots of time and hard work, Berry still couldn't figure out what kind of spider it was. So, he asked for help from Dmitri Logunov, a jumping-spider specialist at Manchester Museum. A year later, they knew they had found a new species.
Is it unique to Britain?
Yes, it's special to Britain for now because no one has found it anywhere else. But it's not from Britain. Its family members live in the West Indies and it might be introduced with imported(进口) plants.
Logunov named the spider after his friend Claire Milesae, who worked at Manchester Museum and loved nature. She was a natural historian and an honorary curator who died years ago.
1. Why is this new kind of jumping spider hard to find?
2. How can people find a lot of Anasaitis Milesae in the trees?
3. Why did Berry turn to Logunov when he failed(失败) to identify the spider?
4. How might the new species come to Britain?
5. What can be the subtitle(小标题) of the last paragraph?

解析
【分析】
这道题是说明文类阅读简答题，要求答案不超过8个词。解题时首先要明确每个题干的核心疑问点，带着关键词回到原文对应段落精准定位相关语句，剔除冗余信息，提炼出完全匹配问题、字数符合要求的核心内容即可，最后一题需要概括最后一段的核心主旨，提炼出贴合内容的小标题。
【解析】
1. 定位原文第一段内容，该跳蛛体长不足3毫米，体型极小所以很难被发现，提炼核心信息得到答案。
2. 定位到"Where was it found?"部分的对应描述，可知大量找到该蜘蛛的方式是拍打树木的低处枝条，提取对应内容即可。
3. 定位到"How was it identified?"部分，可知Berry求助的对象Logunov是跳蛛领域的专家，因此他向对方求助。
4. 定位到"Is it unique to Britain?"部分的末尾，可知该物种大概率是随进口植物被引入英国的。
5. 最后一段主要介绍了该蜘蛛名字的由来，因此设置对应围绕命名来源的小标题即可，言之有理就符合要求。
【答案】
1. Because the spider is so small.
2. By beating the lower branches of trees.
3. Because Logunov was a jumping-spider specialist.
4. It might be introduced with imported plants.
