The Shiants, remte, cliff-edged islands ff the cast f Sctland are hme t 350,000 seabirds. This is the starting pint fr Natinal Gegraphic cntributr Adam Niclsn’s new bk, The Seabirds Cry. Celebrating 10 species in detail, he describes the unbelievable recvery f seabirds and the many adaptatins that have enabled them t survive and navigate the ceans, while sunding a lud call fr their cnservatin amng severely falling numbers.
Speaking frm his hme in Sussex, England, Niclsn explains why guillemt (海雀) clnies are infrmatin exchange centers: hw new research is shwing that thse lng-distance travelers. The shearwaters, "smell" their way acrss the glbe; and what we can d t supprt seabird ppulatins.
Natinal Gegraphic has just kicked ff Year f the Bird with a cver stry by Jnathan Franzen titled "Why Birds Matter ". The beginning f Year f the Bird is beneficial t birds. Niclsn said, "Ill ask yu the same questin-why? Fr me, these seabirds are symbls f uniqueness. There is s much n the land where the rest f the living wrld seems t be cntrlled by us, but when yu g t seabird clnies, there is this pumping, lud and raging uniqueness. It's a glance f the untuched wrld. ”
“The reasn why it's untuched is that, until recently, we have nt cntrlled the ceans that the seabirds depend n. Mre f them have survived in greater numbers than mst ther creatures in the develped wrld, where huge amunts f the animal kingdm have been remved by us. And s ne reasn these birds matter is that they are symbls f what the wrld might be if we hadn't dne s much damage t it. "He added.
“Seabirds als tend t disappear; they’re nt reliably f ur wrld, due t their migratin and habits f life. Very deep in ur cnsciusness is a sense that they are ambassadrs frm anther wrld. And witnessing and feeling that is, I think, ne f the great enlargers f life.” Niclsn explained.
12. What is the bk The Seabirds Cry mainly abut?
A. Seabirds n an island.B. The extinctin f seabirds.
C. The imprtance f seabird.D. Seabirds in the authr's hmetwn.
13. What can we learn frm Niclsn’s speech?
A. The wisdm f seabirds.B. Ways t prtect seabird.
C. Migratin rutes f seabirds.D. The harder situatin f seabirds.
14. What des the underlined phrase "kicked ff" in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Watched ut frB. Cut acrss
C. ExpressedD. Started
15. Which is a lucky thing fr seabirds in Niclsn’s view?

C. The seabirds are able t fit the envirnment.

Speaking frm his hme in Sussex, England, Niclsn explains why guillemt (海雀) clnies are infrmatin exchange centers: hw new research is shwing that thse lng-distance travelers. The shearwaters, "smell" their way acrss the glbe; and what we can d t supprt seabird ppulatins.
Natinal Gegraphic has just kicked ff Year f the Bird with a cver stry by Jnathan Franzen titled "Why Birds Matter ". The beginning f Year f the Bird is beneficial t birds. Niclsn said, "Ill ask yu the same questin-why? Fr me, these seabirds are symbls f uniqueness. There is s much n the land where the rest f the living wrld seems t be cntrlled by us, but when yu g t seabird clnies, there is this pumping, lud and raging uniqueness. It's a glance f the untuched wrld. ”
“The reasn why it's untuched is that, until recently, we have nt cntrlled the ceans that the seabirds depend n. Mre f them have survived in greater numbers than mst ther creatures in the develped wrld, where huge amunts f the animal kingdm have been remved by us. And s ne reasn these birds matter is that they are symbls f what the wrld might be if we hadn't dne s much damage t it. "He added.
“Seabirds als tend t disappear; they’re nt reliably f ur wrld, due t their migratin and habits f life. Very deep in ur cnsciusness is a sense that they are ambassadrs frm anther wrld. And witnessing and feeling that is, I think, ne f the great enlargers f life.” Niclsn explained.
