「2026湖北武汉洪山期中」
Every summer, thousands of swamp sparrows（沼泽麻雀）sing songs in the North America's wetlands. These special brown birds only know a few songs, but they sing them very well. In fact, their song list doesn't change much at all.
Like humans, baby swamp sparrows learn songs from their elders. "Swamp sparrows just make few mistakes when they learn their songs," says biologist Robert Lachlan. Actually, they copy the music so well that it stays the same from the elder to the young.
" Just like children, the sparrows don't remember every song they hear," Lachlan says. "They just pick up the songs they hear most often. It's an example of what scientists call 'conformist bias'." Until recently, this learning ability was thought to be special only to humans.
Between 2008 and 2009, Lachlan's team recorded the songs of 615 swamp sparrows across the northeastern United States. The study found that only 2% of these sparrows sang a different song, while the other sparrows sang songs just from their list. "The song types that you hear in the wetlands of North America today were there 1,000 years ago," says Lachlan.
▲ Now scientists are exploring how losing habitat（栖息地）affects songbirds. Cities and roads can break up a bird population into a number of isolated（孤立的）groups. It stops birds from sharing their songs with each other. This explains why some sparrows started to sing different songs.
" The findings are really exciting," says scientist Andrew Farnsworth. He hopes people will start more studies. For example, scientists might learn how other animals keep their cultural traditions alive（继续存在）. Farnsworth adds, "It's really cool to think this could happen in other animals too."
10. What is special about swamp sparrows?

答案
Ⅳ.[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了北美湿地的沼泽麻雀独特的歌唱特性。
10.D 细节理解题。根据第一段中“In fact, their song list doesn’t change much at all.”以及第四段中“The song types that you hear...1,000 years ago”可知,沼泽麻雀的特别之处在于它们的歌曲列表多年来保持不变。故选D。
11.C 推理判断题。根据第三段中“It’s an example of what scientists call ‘conformist bias’.”以及“this learning ability was thought to be special only to humans”可推知,“conformist bias”是一种学习能力。故选C。

13.B 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Cities and roads can break up a bird population into a number of isolated groups. It stops birds from sharing their songs with each other.”可知,栖息地丧失会使一个鸟类种群分成许多孤立的群体,阻碍它们交流。故选B。
