“The experience frm the previus three seasns makes us mre capable t fllw wild animals while aviding disturbing them,” says Yu, chief directr f the series. China has made great effrts t prtect endangered wildlife species and their habitats in recent years, and it has becme much easier t spt rare species in the wild. Taking Tibetan antelpes as an example, the plateau-based creatures were difficult t encunter in the past, but the expansin f their ppulatin and enhanced research n their living patterns have allwed the camera crew t tailr plans t fllw the animals.
Mst clse-ups fr the seasn were sht by phtgraphers frm helicpters r cameras installed n drnes (无人机).

In an attempt t fully shw China’s huge changes ver the past decade, the dcumentary series cnsulted experts frm different fields t help select the mst attractive shting sites.

Mre than 30 teams were assigned t sht in different cities fr the furth seasn.

Plants d nt suffer in silence when thirsty r stressed, accrding t a new study published tday in Cell.
Plants that need water r have recently had their branches cut prduce up t rughly 35 sunds per hur, the authrs fund. But well-watered and uncut plants are much quieter, making nly abut ne sund per hur.
The reasn why yu have prbably never heard a thirsty plant make nises is that the sunds are s high-pitched that very few humans culd hear them. Sme animals, hwever, prbably can. Bats, mice and mths culd pssibly live in a wrld filled with the sunds f plants, and previus wrk by the same team has fund that plants respnd t sunds made by animals, t.
T verhear plants, Lilach Hadany at Tel-Aviv University in Israel and her clleagues placed tbacc and tmat plants in small bxes prvided with micrphnes. The micrphnes picked up any nises made by the plants, even if the researchers culdn’t hear them. The nises were particularly bvius fr plants that were stressed by a lack f water r recent cutting.
Plants d nt have vcal crds (声带) r lungs. Hadany says the current thery fr hw plants make nises centers n their xylem (木质部) that transprt water and nutrients frm their rts t their branches and leaves. Water in the xylem is held tgether by surface tensin, just like water mving thrugh a drinking straw. If an air bubble (气泡) frms r breaks in the xylem, it might make a little ppping nise; bubble frmatin is mre likely during dry seasns. But the exact system requires further study, Hadany says.
The team prduced a machine-learning mdel t check whether a plant had been cut r was water-stressed frm the sunds it made, with abut 70% accuracy. This result suggests a pssible rle fr the audi mnitring f plants in farming and gardening.
T test the practicality f this apprach, the team tried recrding plants in a greenhuse. Pilt studies by the authrs suggest that tmat and tbacc plants are nt exceptin. Wheat, crn and wine grapes als make nises when they are thirsty.
What is the new research mainly abut?
A. Plants can react t animals. B. Branchless plants need watering.
C. Well-watered plants keep silent. D. Plants can prduce sunds.
33. What can happen t plants shrt f water accrding t Hadany?
A. They can create mre bubbles.B. They can feel less stressed.
C. They require less nutrient supply. D. They need lungs t breathe mre.
34. What might the mdel be applied t?
A. Nise pllutin test.B. Crp selectin.
C. Water surce prtectin. D. Fruit grwing.
35. What might be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Hw Plants Are ThirstyB. When Nature Expresses Itself
C. Hw Plants Cry fr Their NeedsD. When Creatures Hear Each Other

Plants d nt suffer in silence when thirsty r stressed, accrding t a new study published tday in Cell.
Plants that need water r have recently had their branches cut prduce up t rughly 35 sunds per hur, the authrs fund. But well-watered and uncut plants are much quieter, making nly abut ne sund per hur.
The reasn why yu have prbably never heard a thirsty plant make nises is that the sunds are s high-pitched that very few humans culd hear them. Sme animals, hwever, prbably can. Bats, mice and mths culd pssibly live in a wrld filled with the sunds f plants, and previus wrk by the same team has fund that plants respnd t sunds made by animals, t.
T verhear plants, Lilach Hadany at Tel-Aviv University in Israel and her clleagues placed tbacc and tmat plants in small bxes prvided with micrphnes. The micrphnes picked up any nises made by the plants, even if the researchers culdn’t hear them. The nises were particularly bvius fr plants that were stressed by a lack f water r recent cutting.
Plants d nt have vcal crds (声带) r lungs. Hadany says the current thery fr hw plants make nises centers n their xylem (木质部) that transprt water and nutrients frm their rts t their branches and leaves. Water in the xylem is held tgether by surface tensin, just like water mving thrugh a drinking straw. If an air bubble (气泡) frms r breaks in the xylem, it might make a little ppping nise; bubble frmatin is mre likely during dry seasns. But the exact system requires further study, Hadany says.
The team prduced a machine-learning mdel t check whether a plant had been cut r was water-stressed frm the sunds it made, with abut 70% accuracy. This result suggests a pssible rle fr the audi mnitring f plants in farming and gardening.
T test the practicality f this apprach, the team tried recrding plants in a greenhuse. Pilt studies by the authrs suggest that tmat and tbacc plants are nt exceptin. Wheat, crn and wine grapes als make nises when they are thirsty.
What is the new research mainly abut?
A. Plants can react t animals. B. Branchless plants need watering.
C. Well-watered plants keep silent. D. Plants can prduce sunds.
33. What can happen t plants shrt f water accrding t Hadany?
A. They can create mre bubbles.B. They can feel less stressed.
C. They require less nutrient supply. D. They need lungs t breathe mre.
34. What might the mdel be applied t?
A. Nise pllutin test.B. Crp selectin.
C. Water surce prtectin. D. Fruit grwing.
35. What might be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Hw Plants Are ThirstyB. When Nature Expresses Itself
C. Hw Plants Cry fr Their NeedsD. When Creatures Hear Each Other
