S far, 43 migratry bird prtectin statins have been built acrss the prvince, cvering almst all key pints n the passageway. In 2020, a “lights ut” prgram started in Lanshan cunty t prevent the birds frm being distracted (使分心).
On Nv 1, the Hunan prvincial gvernment issued a ban n hunting migratry birds and ther wildlife listed under natinal and prvincial prtectin. Natinwide, the Natinal Frestry and Grassland Administratin is carrying ut a tw-mnth special actin plan t strengthen patrls and remve illegal hunting equipment in natinal parks, nature reserves and bird migratin rutes acrss the cuntry.

(2024上·江苏泰州·高一校联考期末)Like dgs, wlves can recgnize and respnd t the vices f familiar humans mre than thse f strangers, accrding t a recent study. The research challenges the belief that dgs ability t differentiate human vices is due t selective breeding(选择性繁殖).
Hlly Rt Gutteridge and clleagues carried ut experiments acrss five zs and wildlife parks in Spain, invlving a ttal f 24 gray wlves. The team set up speakers and first played the animals the vice f a number f strangers. Then, they played the wlves the vice f their keeper wh wuld say familiar things t them in Spanish, such as “Hey, what’s up, wlves?” The wlves raised their heads, pricked their ears up, and turned tward the speaker. T test that the effect wasn’t accidental, the researchers went back t playing the wlves recrdings f strangers and fund that they nce mre lst interest. Finally, t make sure that the wlves truly knew their keepers’ vices, the team mixed things up and had the keepers say a series f unfamiliar phrases. Once mre, the results held up.
Rt Gutteridge pinted ut the significance f wlves being able t differentiate between humans, despite the fact that ur species went ur separate evlutinary(进化的) ways tens f millins f years ag.
Befre this, there had been a limited number f studies n the tpic f hw animals differentiate between the vcalizatins (发声) f ther species. Research has shwn that ur clse cusins, grillas, listen t peple, but that was expected.
Given the new finding, “chances are that lts f species are listening t us and getting t knw us as individuals,” Rt Gutteridge said. “And it’s nt all abut us. Dgs culd be listening t the neighbrs’ cats and understanding the difference between ne mew r the ther. If the abilities are that general, it means that animals might be having a lt mre crss- species interactins than we had thught abut befre.”
32. What established viewpint des the recent research call int questin?
A. Dgs are the nly animals that can differentiate human vices.
B. Wlves recgnize the vices f humans better than dgs.
C. Wlves cannt understand human languages.
D. Selective breeding enables dgs t differentiate human vices.
33. Hw did the researchers test if the wlves truly recgnized their keepers’ vices?
A. By letting the keepers say unfamiliar phrases in Spanish.
B. By asking strangers t reprduce the keepers’ vices.
C. By playing recrdings f strangers speaking familiar phrases.
D. By changing the playback speed f the keepers’ recrdings.
34. Why are grillas mentined in paragraph 5?
A. T stress their clse relatinship with humans.
B. T ffer additinal evidence fr the recent study.
C. T pint ut anther species that can differentiate vices.
D. T explain hw animals’ ability t differentiate humans’ vices develped.
35. What des the last paragraph mainly talk abut?
A. The fcus f the future studies.
B. The limitatins f the research.
C. The significance f the research.
D. The uniqueness f the experiments.
