People turned off the lights in the citys tallest buildings, so that thousands of birds could get to their winter homes. Every year in autumn, some birds fly over Chicago on their way to the south, and come back the next spring. Lights mean danger to birds. Birds find their way by looking at the stars in the sky. Lights in tall buildings are so bright that birds may mistake them for stars. This means they can not find the right way to go home.This month, about 300 types of birds are flying over Chicago to go back to the south to live through the cold winter. Birds fly to warmer places for a few reasons. Many birds cannot live in the cold, so they fly to warmer places. But there are other reasons, too. Birds need to look for food in the south. Another reason is that they want to have baby birds. Many birds like to have their baby birds in the same house they lived in last year, so they fly back there.There are about 9 ,000 kinds of birds in the world, and about 600 kinds of birds migrate.

Its a famous novel written by a French writer. As it is one of the best-selling books in history, as many as 200 million copies have been sold in 253 languages and dialects(方言). Now, around seventy years after the birth of the book，an American director has found a way to make it into a 3D animated film.The book tells the story of a pilot, called The Aviator, who crashes into the desert(沙漠)and meets a young prince there. However, in the film, the story starts years after the crash when The Aviator is much older. He has got a new neighbor called The Little Girl，whose mother wants her to get ready to enter the grown-up world. Slowly, the Aviator shares his story with The Little Girl by writing it down and sending her a page at a time. The pages are complete with the pictures in the book, speaking about his time in the desert and taking The Little Girl to an amazing world where anything is possible. China is the first country in the world to see the film in two versions(版本)一in Chinese and English. The film show The Little Girls life and tells The Little Princes story at the same time in a beautiful way. Huang Lei, who voices the film together with his 9-year-old daughter, says the film is like a childhood dream which is losr by most adults in this stressed-out society.

But have you ever wondered why those things make you uncomfortable? Its all about personal space, which means not only the imaginary space around the body, but also the space around all the senses. People feel that their space is being violated(侵犯)when they meet with an unwelcome sound, smell or look. This is probably why a man on a crowded bus shouting into his mobile phone or a woman next to you putting on strong perfume(香水)makes you feel angry. Whether people have had a stronger desire(渴望)to protect their personal space in recent times is hard to say. Yet studies of airlines show that people have a strong desire to have space to themselves. In a survey by Trip Advisor, a travel website, people said that if they had to pay more for some extra service, they would rather have larger seats than extra food. Although people may need their personal space, some hardly realize it. For example, people on a bus who hold newspapers in front of their faces to read in fact keep a distance from strangers. Go and watch a library table. You will notice that one of the corner seats will usually be taken first .because they are the farthest way. What if someone sits opposite to your Maybe you will pile up books as if to make a wall. Preference(偏好)for personal space are different from culture to culture. Scientists have found that Americans generally prefer more personal space than people from other cultures. In Latin(拉丁人的)cultures, however, people are more comfortable standing close to each other.( )34. The writer mainly in this article.

There are not enough seats on the plane to meet peoples needs. D. Food service is better provided than seats on the plane.( )37. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.
