22、uments and a microscopic camera.Following programmed instructions from flight controllers, the six-wheel rover made several short turns and moved forward about six feet. It stopped within inches of the pyramid-shaped rock, about the size of a football. It was the vehicles second maneuver on the Mart

23、ian surface since landing there on Jan. 3.Scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., said they did not expect results of the first rock examination until early today. But they were already both pleased and puzzled over the soil test results.“Were starting to put together a pict

24、ure of what the soil at Gusev is really like,“ Dr. Steven W. Squyres of Cornell, the principal scientist of the mission, said at a news conference in Pasadena. He was referring to the Spirits landing site in Gusev crater, near the Martian equator. Two of the Spirits main science instruments, the M6s

25、sbauer spectrometer and the alpha particle X-ray spectrometer, made a close examination of soil near the landing base.German scientists in charge of the studies reported that X-rays emitted by the surface soil indicated a chemical composition mainly of silicon and iron, with smaller amounts of sulfu

26、r, chlorine and argon. Argon is a noble gas that is part of the Martian atmosphere. Previous Martian sites visited by landing craft also contained significant amounts of sulfur and chlorine.Other members of the projects science team said the M6ssbauer spectrometer found considerable amounts of the m

27、ineral olivine in the soil. Olivine, which contains oxygen, iron and magnesium, is often found in volcanic rocks. The Martian soil may resemble the volcanic soil of Hawaii.“One possibility is that this soil is simply ground-up lava,“ Dr. Squyres said. “That would surprise me, but its entirely possib

28、le that beneath .those grains there is solid rock and we are detecting some of that solid rock, not the s0il.“Another property of the soil perplexed geologists. The fine grains of the Gusev surface seem to stick together in dry clumps. Geologists suspected static electricity as the clinging force. I

29、f so, they said, the soil should collapse and flatten out when the M6ssbauer spectrometer pressed against the ground. Nothing collapsed, leading Dr. Squyres to ask what force was. responsible for holding them together.（分数：6.00）(1).How many pieces of equipment is the robotic rover Spirit, armed with

30、and what are their names?（分数：1.00）A.Two. They are the mechanical arm and the microscopic camera.B.Three. They are the two science instruments and a microscopic camera.C.Four. They are the two science instruments, a microscopic camera and the flight controller.D.Five. They are the two science instrum

Through field studies and laboratory experiments, hes studied the ec

38、ological and social forces that may have contributed to the evolution of vocal learning. Kroodsma has paid particular attention to local variation in song types, known as dialects. The Black-capped Chickadees (Parus atricapillus)on Marthas Vineyard, for example, have an entirely different song than

39、their counterparts on the Massachusetts mainland, he says. Birds that live on the boundary between two dialects or that spend time in different areas can become “bilingual,“ learning the; songs of more than one group of neighbors. Recently, Kroodsma discovered that the Three-wattled Bellbird (Procni

40、as tricarunculata) is constantly changing its song, creating what he calls a “rapid cultural evolution within each generation. “This kind of song evolution is found in whales but, up until now, rarely in birds.A professor of biology at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Kroodsma is also co-

41、editor of the book Ecology and Evolution of Acoustic Communication in Birds (Cornell University Press, 1996). Though he plans to continue his field studies, he says that one of his most important goals now is to help people understand how to listen to birdsong. “Many people can identify a Wood Thrus

42、h(Hylocichla mustelina)when they hear it. Its one of the most beautiful songs in the world, “he says. “Little do they realize they could hear the things that Wood Thrush is communicating if they just knew how to listen.“ Next is an interview made between an amateur of bird songs(SA)and Donald Kroods

43、ma.SA: Can you make any comparison between how a baby bird learns to sing and how a young human learns to speak?DK: On the surface, its remarkably similar. I often play a tape of my daughter, recorded when she was about a year and a half old. She is taking all the sounds she knows, “bow-wow, kitty,

44、no, down” and randomly piecing them together in a nonsensical babbling sequence. Then I play a tape of a young bird and dissect what its doing in what we call its “subsong,“ and its exactly the same thing.Its taking all the sounds it has memorized, all the sounds it has been exposed to, and singing

45、them in a random sequence. It looks like what the baby human and the baby bird are doing is identical. Some might say thats a crass comparison, but its very intriguing. SA: Why do the song repertoires(全部技能)and dialects of some birds vary from place to place?DK: For the species of birds that do not l

46、earn their songs, I like to think of it simplistically as the song being encoded right in their DNA. With these birds, if we find differences in their songs from place to place, it means that the DNA has changed too, that the populations are genetically different.But there are species in which the s

47、ongs are not encoded in the DNA. Then we have something very similar to humans, in which speech is learned and varies from place to place. If you were raised in Germany, for example, youd be speaking German rather than English with no change in your genes. So with the birds that learn their songs, y

48、ou get these striking differences from place to place because the birds have learned the local dialect.SA: How is this affected by whether a bird is nomadic? DK: If you know the rest of your life youre going to be speaking English, you work hard at learning English. But what if you know that youll b

49、e repeatedly thrown in with people speaking different languages from all over the world? You start to see the enormous challenge it would be to learn the language or dialect of all these different locations. So I think for nomadic birds like Sedge Wrens Cistothorus platensis, because they are thrown together with different birds every few months from all over the geographic range, they dont bother to imitate the songs of their immediate ne
