Jackdaws (寒鸦) are the smallest member f the crw family. They ften live in a crwd. Indeed, when cld weather cmes, they gather in the hundreds (and smetimes thusands) every evening s that they can sleep in the same place. If yu' ve ever heard jackdaws during their evening gatherings and mrning departures, yu' ll knw they are nt quiet birds. Despite being fairly lw-vlume during the day, they are really lud n either side f their night-time get-tgethers. Why might this be?
A team f the Crnish Jackdaw Prject set ut t determine why jackdaws are s nisy befre they depart frm their sleeping spt. The team' s thery was that the mrning calls might be a jackdaw versin f " vting" . The researchers suspected that each individual' s call might cunt as an " I' m in!" . When a certain amunt f " I' m in!" s are called —and s a certain vlume f nise is reached -the grup might then depart as a unit.
T test this idea, the researchers artificially increased the level f calls during the jackdaws' natural mrning calls. Their expectatin was that, if jackdaws really are " vting with their vice" t decide when t depart the sleeping site, artificially adding calls wuld make them leave earlier than they naturally wuld have dne. Subsequent experiments cnfirmed their expectatin. The team therefre shwed that jackdaws use their calls as a srt f vting system.
Yu might wnder why this happens. The researchers suggest that individual jackdaws benefit frm the vting system because they are less at risk f being killed and they can get mre access t scial infrmatin — such as where t find fd.
S the lud calls f jackdaws in the mrning are therefre nt the pure chas it sunds like. If yu are ever being driven mad by the sund in the mrning, yu can find cmfrt in the fact that the luder they get, the sner they will leave yu in peace.

In July 1915, sick James Murray, ne f the early editrs f the Oxfrd English Dictinary (OED), defined ne final wrd. He had devted 36 years t the dictinary. Knwing he wuld nt see the prject cmplete, he wrte his last entry: fr " twilight" .
The stry f Murray' s final days is ne f many memrable tales in " The Dictinary Peple" . Cnceived (构思) in 1857, the OED was a huge crwdsurcing prject cmprising 3,000 peple. The idea was t create a " descriptive" dictinary that tracked wrds' use and meaning ver time. Vlunteers read widely, mailing in examples f hw " rare, ld-fashined, new" wrds were used. What is surprising abut this randm methd is that it wrked, achieving rder thrugh the large number f cntributrs.
The rigin stry f Sarah Ogilvie' s bk is almst as imprbable as that f the dictinary itself. Ms Ogilvie, an editr fr the OED, went int the archives (档案馆) f Oxfrd University Press and came acrss an ld ntebk. It had belnged t Murray and cntained the names and details f the dictinary vlunteers, mst f whm had previusly been unknwn. " The Dictinary Peple" is her wrk f detective schlarship, presenting the lives behind the names.
The dictinary' s cntributrs are an engaging cast, including ne f Karl Marx' s daughters and J. R. R. Tlkien. Fr sme, the dictinary was smething addictive: ne cntributr supplied 165,061 qutatins. Murray, t, was assiduus. He nce wrte t Gerge Elit t ask abut a wrd chice in " Rmla" , published 17 years earlier.
Ms Ogilvie' s bk is full f strange but interesting tales. Many dictinary lvers engaged in anther crwdsurcing fashin: cllecting and measuring rainwater. The presentatin f the bk is irregular, t, taking its structure frm the wrk it describes. Fr example, in her first chapter, " A fr Archaelgist (考古学家)," she relates the early life f Margaret A. Murray, a pineering Egyptlgist. There are 26 alphabetical (按字母顺序排列的) chapters, each celebrating a grup f cntributrs. This is a clever cncept.
12. What did the OED' s vlunteers d?
A . They deleted the wrds ging ut f use. B . They listed instances f changes in wrd use. C . They crrected the misuse f cmmn wrds. D . They added new wrds t keep up with the times.
13. What des paragraph 3 mainly tell us abut " The Dictinary Peple" ?
A . What Ogilvie achieved with it. B . Hw Ogilvie tld the stries in it. C . What inspired Ogilvie t write it. D . Wh helped Ogilvie t cmplete it.
14. What des the underlined wrd " assiduus" in paragraph 4 mean?
A . Hard-wrking. B . Easy-ging. C . Energetic. D . Flexible.
15. What des the authr think f Ms Ogilvie' s bk?
A . Interesting and creative. B . Encuraging and influential. C . Traditinal and funny. D . Descriptive and surprising.

Lneliness can cause health prblems. Arund the glbe, abut 1 in 4 adults says they' re lnely. Hw t deal with this kind f prblem? Here are sme tips t get ging.
1. Be curius
It' s easier t cnnect with peple if yu have shared interests r experiences, s start paying attentin t what' s n yur mind. What are yu thinking abut? What mtivates yu? What excites yu? Knwing yurself can be a first step t bnding with thers. If yu knw what' s meaningful r fun fr yu, it may lead yu t an activity r creative utlet.16
2. Make smething
17 The pprtunities fr creative expressin are endless. Yu can als d a dance mve, resurrect yur grandma' s pie recipe, plant an herb garden, r try a textile art. Make smething that puts yur thughts and feelings and visin abut wh yu are and what matters int a tangible artifact that then can express thse thughts and feelings t thers.
3. Take a risk by having cnversatins
Share smething abut yurself. 18 It can just be smething yu think ther peple might find interesting and cmpelling, and see where it ges. Even if yu' re nervus abut being judged r dismissed, putting yurself ut there requires a bit f a risk, and it' s the first step t authentic cnnectin.
4.19
Whether it' s vlunteering fr a cause yu believe in r playing frisbee r Scrabble, try t find thers wh share yur interests. And if yu fllw yur natural curisities, yu may find smething new. Share yur thughts and feelings in creative ways with ther peple wh have that interest. And, hpefully, in thse interactins yu can begin t reveal yurself and share the unique things that matter t yu. Then, ther peple recgnize that, share their stry in return, and it' s like an electric circuit is cnnected.
5. Other peple' s lneliness matters t
Lneliness can spiral. If the pangs f lneliness g unaddressed, peple can end up in a wrld f hurt. If yu see smene wh' s experiencing lneliness, tlerate the risk f asking them hw they' re ding. Be kind. 20 Other peple' s lneliness makes us lnely t.
A. Everyne can be " Picass" .
B. Encurage peple t get started n their wn.
C. Find a grup that matches yur interests
D. It desn' t have t be the biggest secret f yur life.
E. That certainly cnnects yu t peple wh share yur interests.
F. Take the risk t share smething abut yur wn experiences f lneliness.
G. Explaining what yu' ve made may make it easier t pen up abut wh yu are.

The stry f Murray' s final days is ne f many memrable tales in " The Dictinary Peple" . Cnceived (构思) in 1857, the OED was a huge crwdsurcing prject cmprising 3,000 peple. The idea was t create a " descriptive" dictinary that tracked wrds' use and meaning ver time. Vlunteers read widely, mailing in examples f hw " rare, ld-fashined, new" wrds were used. What is surprising abut this randm methd is that it wrked, achieving rder thrugh the large number f cntributrs.
The rigin stry f Sarah Ogilvie' s bk is almst as imprbable as that f the dictinary itself. Ms Ogilvie, an editr fr the OED, went int the archives (档案馆) f Oxfrd University Press and came acrss an ld ntebk. It had belnged t Murray and cntained the names and details f the dictinary vlunteers, mst f whm had previusly been unknwn. " The Dictinary Peple" is her wrk f detective schlarship, presenting the lives behind the names.
The dictinary' s cntributrs are an engaging cast, including ne f Karl Marx' s daughters and J. R. R. Tlkien. Fr sme, the dictinary was smething addictive: ne cntributr supplied 165,061 qutatins. Murray, t, was assiduus. He nce wrte t Gerge Elit t ask abut a wrd chice in " Rmla" , published 17 years earlier.
Ms Ogilvie' s bk is full f strange but interesting tales. Many dictinary lvers engaged in anther crwdsurcing fashin: cllecting and measuring rainwater. The presentatin f the bk is irregular, t, taking its structure frm the wrk it describes. Fr example, in her first chapter, " A fr Archaelgist (考古学家)," she relates the early life f Margaret A. Murray, a pineering Egyptlgist. There are 26 alphabetical (按字母顺序排列的) chapters, each celebrating a grup f cntributrs. This is a clever cncept.
