Living in a city, yu may face fewer parking spaces, mre pllutin, less persnal space, and mre traffic and nise, all f which cntribute t higher stress levels, ften translating t aggressin(攻击行为). And nw, researchers have fund evidence that this behavir . applies t sng sparrws(歌雀) t. But it cmes with a surprising benefit t the yungest generatin f city sparrws.
There are fewer city-living sng sparrws than in the cuntryside. Hwever, the increased aggressin bserved in the males can be cnnected t a mre pressing need t defend territries in urban settings. But that increased aggressin desn't mean the males fail in their duties as fathers. In fact, the researchers were surprised t find that the ppsite may be true.
“Male sngbirds are thught t reduce parental care when they are mre aggressive. Yet this study shwed that urban male sng sparrws prvided mre care fr their yung,” says Dr Samuel Lane, lead authr f the study. “Against ur expectatins, we fund that they visited nests mre ften and were mre successful parents than the males in the cuntryside.”
The researchers carried ut their studies at six sites acrss suthwest Virginia, USA, acrss fur breeding(繁殖) seasns. They fund that the high survival rate f their chicks was subject t many factrs. Nt nly did ma le sparrws visit their nests mre ften, but they als began feeding chicks earlier in the day. Despite the challenges f being a city bird, hatching success was bserved t be higher in urban habitats. And even thugh brd parasitism, ne species laying eggs in the nest f anther, is typically higher in urban areas, the researchers bserved that rates f nest predatin, the act f ther animals eating eggs r yung birds, were lwer, further cntributing t the verall nesting success f these sparrws.
Lane said, “Our study adds t grwing evidence that certain species f sngbirds even benefit frm living in urban envirnments when there is enugh green space fr them t find fd and nest lcatins.”
The team hpe nging research in this area will cntribute t the establishment f urban envirnments aimed at ffering imprved supprt fr wildlife.
28. What causes the increased aggressin f male city sparrws?
A. The stress f prtecting their territries.
B. The wrsening f urban nise pllutin.
C. The challenges f building their nests.
D. The grwing needs f yunger generatins.
29. What had the researchers expected f urban males cmpared t thse in the cuntryside?
A. They lived shrter lives. B. They had a higher ppulatin.
C. They had lwer nest attendance. D. They wke up earlier in the mrning.
30. Which f the fllwing can be fund in urban areas accrding t the study?
A. Higher nest lcatins. B. Reduced brd parasitism.
C. Limited breeding seasns. D. Lwer nest predatin rates.

Cities, cvering less than 2% f the Earth's surface, are majr cntributrs t climate change, cnsuming almst 80% f the wrld's energy and prducing mre than 60% f greenhuse gas emissins. Frtunately, net zer emissins (净零排放) by 2050, a target set at the COP26cnference, culd be achieved faster using digital twins cities, accrding t a recent research.
Lking and behaving identically in their real-wrld physical envirnments, digital twins can help track, manage and reduce envirnmental damage rapidly. These replicas(复制品) link t netwrks f sensrs that cllect data frm buildings, transprt, air quality, and energy use, t see where emissins can be cut and efficiency imprved. Similar technlgies have been in use since NASA's Apll mn missin in 1969, where cmputers and machine replicas were used t test and mnitr spacecraft.
Research shws that digital twins can save cities mre than $ 280 billin glbally by 2030thrugh mre efficient urban planning. Digital twin prvider City zenith believes that net zer deadlines culd be achieved 15 years earlier if the wrld's 100 biggest cities use the technlgy t decarbnize. “They are the perfect tl fr managing and speeding up the energy transfrmatin,” said CEO Michael Jansen. “We culd get t net zer glbally by 2035.”
Over the past decades, big tech cmpanies arund the wrld, including GE Digital and Siemens, have develped sftware fr replicating cities, including a district f Berlin, the island natin f Singapre, and the entire city f Shanghai in China. In the US, the Digital Twin Cnsrtium is wrking t standardize hw digital twins are built and share data. Technlgy cmpany MX3D built the wrld's first 3D-printed stainless steel bridge and c-created its digital twin. CEO Gijs van der Velden believes twins will give us precise cntrl ver the built envirnment.
Recently, Open AI als made advances in this field. On February 15, the cmpany revealed its latest grundbreaking tech——Sra t the wrld. Sra is a text-t-vide generative AI mdel. It can generate vides that matches the text prmpt.(文本提示) given t it in a few secnds. Experts believe Sra is likely t be applied in science and natinal defense in the future.
32. Hw des the authr shw the impact f cities n climate change?
A. By listing data. B. By giving examples.
C. By cmparing pinins. D. By quting research findings.
33. What's Michael Jansen's attitude twards digital twins?
A. Apprving. B. Oppsed.
C. Uncncerned. D. Objective.
34. What can we infer frm the last tw paragraphs?
A. Sra has been used in scientific research and military..
B. Gijs van der Velden has little faith in digital twins’ future.
C. Digital twins technlgy is develping rapidly arund the wrld.
D. Few tech cmpanies are invlved in the study f replicating cities.
35. Which is the best title f this passage?
A. Net Zer Emissins Culd Be Hit 15 Years Earlier
