In the depths f Abernethy Frest, researcher and cnservatinist Jack Bamber has just placed deer meat in the hpe f attracting every nearby predatr（捕食者）. It may sund weird, but it’s all part f a plan t catch the attentin f predatrs wh might therwise be interested in lunching n a capercaillie（松鸡）chick and it’s quite nrmal. Capercaillies are large, secretive birds knwn fr their striking fan tails. Hwever, in Sctland, their ppulatin is critically lw, with nly abut 500 left during 2021-2022.
Bamber’s methd, knwn as diversinary feeding, invlves leaving meat near capercaillie habitats during the breeding（繁殖） seasn. The gal is t prvide predatrs like pine martens and badgers—bth prtected species—with an easier meal, reducing the chances f them attacking capercaillie nests. This apprach helps prtect capercaillies withut harming predatrs.
Initial trials have been prmising, shwing an 83% reductin in nest predatin in areas where meat was prvided. Hwever, this is just ne f many strategies needed t save the species. Other effrts include educating the public t avid disturbing the birds, particularly in places like the Cairngrms Natinal Park, where dgs and hikers can unintentinally stress the birds r disturb their habitats.
Carlyn Rbertsn, manager f the Cairngrms Capercaillie Prject, wrks t minimize human disturbances. He said, “Dgs, even n leads, can cause capercaillies t feel threatened. Public awareness campaigns have helped lcal dg wners understand the imprtance f keeping their pets under cntrl. Additinally, initiatives like the ‘Lek it be’ campaign urge peple t leave the birds undisturbed during the breeding seasn.”
The species faces multiple threats, including habitat lss, cnflicts with deer fences, and the impact f climate change, which affect fd availability and chick survival. Despite the challenges, effrts cntinue with hpe that the species can recver. These cnservatin（保护）actins nt nly aim t save the capercaillie but als benefit ther wildlife and the ecsystem as a whle.
28. What des the underlined wrd “weird” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Disappinting. B. Pleasant.
C. Strange. D. Cstly.
29. What is the effect f initial trials t prtect capercaillies?
A. It is effective. B. It is ill-advised.
C. It is unclear. D. It is shrt-lived.
30. What can we infer abut these cnservatin actins frm Rbertsn’s wrds?
A. They discurage lcal dg wners.
B. They bring abut additinal csts.
C. They rely n researchers’ wrk.
D. They invlve multi-party effrts.
31. What des the authr intend t explain in the last paragraph?
A. The significance f these cnservatin actins.
B. The backgrund f the new plicy.
C. The hardships the lcals suffered.
D. The prblems researchers faced.

Cnventinal wisdm hlds that peple are easily affected by first impressins, and there’s slid scientific evidence that initial judgements and impressins are hard t shake—even when they turn ut t be inaccurate. But accrding t the new study, “sleeping n it” d can help us avid judging a bk nly by its cver.
In a series f nline experiments, researchers asked participants t evaluate virtual bxes f gds t determine which were mst valuable. Each bx cntained mstly lw-value items like ld alarm clcks r ptted plants, with a few valuable nes such as nice lamps r teddy bears. Unbeknwn t the participants, hwever, the cmbined ttal value f the 20 items in each bx was the same, and nly the arrangement f “junk” and “gems（宝石）” differed, Sme bxes had valuable items n tp; sme in the middle r at the bttm; and sme had them mixed.
After the participants had pened the different bxes, the researchers asked them t estimate the value f each ne. Sme participants judged the bxes immediately, but thers “slept n it” and decided after an vernight delay.
“By cmparing, we fund that peple are strngly biased (有偏见的) by first impressins,” says lead authr Allie Sinclair. “Nt nly did the participants cnsisteutly g fr the bxes that ‘started strng’ ver the thers, they als tended t verestimate their value—guessing they were wrth 10% mre mney than they actually were, Hwever, participants wh weren’t asked t decide until the next day were less likely t fall int these traps.”
Judging frm first impressins can be beneficial fr immediate chices. Fr instance, when watching a mvie’s pening scene r skimming a bk’s first pages, quick judgements can save time. But fr ling-term decisins r significant life chices like hiring r dating, Sinclair said there’s wisdm in the idea f “sleeping n it” befre making a decisin.
32. What can we learn abut first impressins based n cnventinal wisdm?

A. By giving examples and analyzing data.
B. By ding experiments and making cmparisns.
C. By interviewing participants and explaining causes.
D. By making classificatin and referring t frmer studies. 34. What des Sinclair suggest abut significant life chices?
A. Aviding verthinking.
B. Judging frm first impressins.
C. Making chices quickly and withut hesitatin.
D. Spending time taking multiple factrs int cnsideratin.
35. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Sleep Imprves Memry fr Details
B. First Impressins Dminate Decisin-making
C. Overnight Delay Reduces First Impressin Bias
