One theory claims that prehistoric birds of the Northern Hemisphere were forced south d
8、uring the Ice Age. As the glaciers melted, the birds came back to their homelands, spent the summer, and then went south again as the ice advanced in winter. In time, the migration became a habit in spite of the disappearance of glaciers. Another theory proposes that the ancestral home of all modern
9、 birds was the tropics. When the region became overpopulated, many species were crowded north. During the summer, there was plenty of food, but during the winter, scarcity forced them to return to the tropics. A more recent theory suggests a relationship between increasing daylight and the stimulati

Their friends, with good will, sometimes lean forward to rearrange the
23、ir neckwear, touching their hair or patting their facesthings they would never presume to do, unasked, to one of their contemporaries.
