「2025山东德州中考」
Birds don’t have very large brains, but they are super clever!
Recently, researchers in New Jersey discovered the Cooper’s Hawk（库珀鹰）can understand how to use human traffic rules to hunt, so that they hunt more easily and successfully. This was discovered by Vladimir Dinets, who is both an animal expert and a mathematician, and his research was published on May 23, 2025, in Frontiers in Animal Behavior. Other studies have pointed out that birds often use human buildings and vehicles（机动车）to help them hunt, but recognizing traffic lights is a first.
In the winter of 2021, Dinets saw a young Cooper’s Hawk standing in a tree near the traffic lights. It flew low under cover of stopped cars, and disappeared into the front yard across the street. A moment later, it reappeared, catching a sparrow（麻雀）. This hunt left a deep impression on Dinets. It seemed to know when the traffic light was red.
Through continued observation（观察）, Dinets believes it recognized traffic lights through the buzzing sound when the red light was on at a certain time. Also, the hawk knew that sparrows would be at a certain house because the owner put out rubbish every day. So, the hawk used the cars which lined up to get close to the sparrows without being seen, making it easier to catch them.
This is more difficult than imagined.
The Cooper’s Hawk can’t see its prey（猎物）from the tree. So it has to remember the surroundings（环境）and work out its way. Also, it
has to know that some buzzing sounds have something to do with traffic lights. This behavior must come from careful calculations（计算）, a great memory, and complex（复杂的）thinking skills. In a word, to have this hunting skill needs a lot of intelligence（智力）.
Maybe other animals can do the same, but this Cooper’s Hawk is the first wild animal they’ve discovered. These birds fly through here when migrating（迁徙）in summer and winter. This means the Cooper’s Hawk probably learned to do this in just a few days or weeks.
Finally, Dinets also saw a Cooper’s Hawk hunting in the same manner the following winter（2022）, and he believes it is the same hawk, now an adult. However, in the summer of the year after that, the sound signal from the streetlight was gone, the people living there moved away, and there were no longer any sparrows there. From then on, until the article was published, Dinets never saw the Cooper’s Hawk nearby again.
11.What did the Cooper’s Hawk use to judge the traffic lights?
A.Traffic lights’ colours. B.The surroundings.
C.The stopped cars. D.The buzzing sound.
12.In which sentence does “cover” have the same meaning as the underlined “cover”?
A.A dust cover hung over the painting.
B.I read the magazine from cover to cover.
C.The boys used the shop as a cover for hide-and-seek.
D.Once the forest cover is destroyed, rains wash away the soil.
13.「特色写作手法题」How does the writer support the idea “This is more difficult than imagined”?
A.By offering examples.
B.By giving numbers.
C.By making comparisons.
D.By presenting facts.
14.What do we know about the Cooper’s Hawk?
A.It is the first wild animal to use buildings to hunt.
B.It caught its prey with the help of the house owner.
C.It may learn the hunting skill in a short period.
D.It appeared for the last time on May 23, 2025.
15.Which is the best title of the passage?
A.A discovery about the Cooper’s Hawk
B.Traffic lights’ role in directing hunting
C.The influence of human life on animals
D.The value of scientific research to nature
