Tiny, black-capped chickadees (北美山雀) have big memries. They stre fd in hundreds t thusands f different lcatins in the wild—and then cme back t these places when ther fd surces are lw.
Scientists have knwn that chickadees have incredible memry skills. That memry can be a matter f life r death fr these birds when there are n enugh fd resurces in clder mnths.
Sme researchers thught that neurns called place cells (细胞) wuld explain these birds’ ability t remember where their fd is stred. These cells are knwn t include infrmatin abut where things are in space. But recently, Selmaan Chettih and his team fund that each time a chickadee hides a seed (种子) in a specific lcatin, a unique brain pattern appears—separate frm place cells.
T bserve this, Chettih and his team created special areas with lts f feeders filled with sunflwer seeds. They put small flaps (片状下垂物) where birds culd hide seeds.
The scientists tracked the activity in their brains. Each time a bird hid a seed under a flap, researchers saw a brief unique brain pattern appear—what they called the bar cde. Different patterns appeared even if the birds hid many seeds in the same lcatin. When the birds revisited these sites and retrieved the hidden seeds, the same bar cde-like pattern appeared again, as thugh all the infrmatin abut each lcatin and seed were related t a unique brain pattern.
The researchers cmpared these memries t episdic memries in humans, which are memries f specific events r persnal experiences. They’re imprtant t hw humans cnnect time, peple, places and sensry infrmatin tgether.
Chettih says that this seed-hiding behavir has a clear pattern f activity, which may help researchers build a structure fr hw the brain creates and stres memries.
32. Why are memry skills necessary fr chickadees?
A. Memry skills can help them survive in clder mnths.
B. Memry skills shw their intelligence and learning abilities.
C. They need memry skills t identify different types f fd.
D. They use memry skills t avid being attacked by ther animals.
33. What did Chettih and his team find?
A. Unique brain patterns appeared when chickadees hid seeds.
B. Chickadees ften hid many seeds in the same lcatin.
C. Chickadees preferred hiding sunflwer seeds.
D. Chickadees’ memries were cntrlled by place cells.
34. What des the underlined wrd “retrieved” mean in paragraph 5?
A. Repaired.B. Decrated.C. Regained.D. Designed.
35. What is the purpse f the text?
A. T intrduce a study n chickadees’ memry.
B. T present a detailed descriptin f chickadees.
C. T cmpare chickadees and human memry skills.
D. T prvide readers with a way t imprve memry skills.

Tiny, black-capped chickadees (北美山雀) have big memries. They stre fd in hundreds t thusands f different lcatins in the wild—and then cme back t these places when ther fd surces are lw.
Scientists have knwn that chickadees have incredible memry skills. That memry can be a matter f life r death fr these birds when there are n enugh fd resurces in clder mnths.
Sme researchers thught that neurns called place cells (细胞) wuld explain these birds’ ability t remember where their fd is stred. These cells are knwn t include infrmatin abut where things are in space. But recently, Selmaan Chettih and his team fund that each time a chickadee hides a seed (种子) in a specific lcatin, a unique brain pattern appears—separate frm place cells.
T bserve this, Chettih and his team created special areas with lts f feeders filled with sunflwer seeds. They put small flaps (片状下垂物) where birds culd hide seeds.
The scientists tracked the activity in their brains. Each time a bird hid a seed under a flap, researchers saw a brief unique brain pattern appear—what they called the bar cde. Different patterns appeared even if the birds hid many seeds in the same lcatin. When the birds revisited these sites and retrieved the hidden seeds, the same bar cde-like pattern appeared again, as thugh all the infrmatin abut each lcatin and seed were related t a unique brain pattern.
The researchers cmpared these memries t episdic memries in humans, which are memries f specific events r persnal experiences. They’re imprtant t hw humans cnnect time, peple, places and sensry infrmatin tgether.
Chettih says that this seed-hiding behavir has a clear pattern f activity, which may help researchers build a structure fr hw the brain creates and stres memries.
32. Why are memry skills necessary fr chickadees?
A. Memry skills can help them survive in clder mnths.
B. Memry skills shw their intelligence and learning abilities.
C. They need memry skills t identify different types f fd.
D. They use memry skills t avid being attacked by ther animals.

B. Chickadees ften hid many seeds in the same lcatin.
C. Chickadees preferred hiding sunflwer seeds.
D. Chickadees’ memries were cntrlled by place cells.
34. What des the underlined wrd “retrieved” mean in paragraph 5?

35. What is the purpse f the text?
