2．Vijay Gupta is known to classical music lovers across the United States．He serves as first violinist for the Los Angeles Philharmonic．In that job，he often plays to large crowds，including many very rich people．When he is not performing，he organizes concerts for homeless people． "They have reminded me why I became a musician，" he said．
Last week，Gupta was recognized for being a founder and the artistic director of Street Symphony．The group has performed at homeless shelters，jails and halfway houses for about eight years．Gupta is among the 25 winners of the 2018 MacArthur Fellowship，commonly known as the "genius grant．" Each winner will receive ﹩625，000 over five years to use as they wish．The money is coming from a private group，the John D．a(chǎn)nd Katherine T．MacArthur Foundation．It awards grants （補助金） to people whose work it considers exceptional and that "inspires hope in us all．" Gupta said he got the idea for Street Symphony while teaching Nathaniel Ayers，a trained musician whose mental illness led to homelessness．
The 31-year-old grant winner said he does not know yet how he will spend the money．He has been a performer since age seven and the award will give him "space to breathe，plan and look ahead．"
Another winner is Rebecca Sandefur，an associate professor of sociology and law in the University of Illinois．The Associated Press says her research actively supports new ways to involve poor communities in the U．S．justice system．
47-year-old Sandefur created the first national mapping of civil legal aid providers．It shows which states had the financial resources to provide such aid and which did not．She also found that the cost of legal services is only one of the things preventing poor people from getting lawyers．Among the others are fears about unfairness in the legal system．Sandefur noted that a lot of attention has been paid to problems with the criminal justice system，but more attention must be paid to the civil side of the law，which also affects millions of people．

3．Their cheery song brightens many a winter's day．But robins are in danger of wearing themselves out by singing too much．Robins are singing all night一as well as during the day，British-based researchers say．
David Dominoni，of Glasgow University，said that light from street lamps，takeaway signs and homes is affecting the birds' biological clocks，leading to them being wide awake when they should be asleep．
Dr Dominoni，who is putting cameras inside nesting boxes to track sleeping patterns，said lack of sleep could put the birds' health at risk．His study shows that when robins are exposed to light at night in the lab，it leads to some genes being active at the wrong time of day．And the more birds are exposed to light，the more active they are at night．
He told people at a conference， "There have been a couple of studies suggesting they are increasing their song output at night and during the day they are still singing．Singing is a costly behaviour and it takes energy．So by increasing their song output，there might be some costs of energy．"
And it is not just robins that are being kept awake by artificial light．Blackbirds and seagulls are also being more nocturnal．Dr Dominoni said， "In Glasgow where I live，gulls are a serious problem．I have people coming to me saying 'You are the bird expert．Can you help us kill these gulls？'．During the breeding（繁殖）season，between April and June，they are very active at night and very noisy and people can't sleep．"
Although Dr Dominoni has only studied light pollution，other research concluded that robins living in noisy cities have started to sing at night to make themselves heard over loud noise．
However，some birds thrive（興旺）in noisy environments．A study from California Polytechnic University found more hummingbirds in areas with heavy industrial machinery．It is thought that they are capitalizing on their predators（天敵）fleeing to quieter areas．
（1）According to Dr Dominoni's study，what cause robins to sing so much？
A．The breeding season．
B．The light in modern life
C．The dangerous environment．
D．The noise from heavy machinery．
（2）What is the researchers' concern over the increase of birds' song output？
A．The environment might be polluted．
B．The birds' health might be damaged．
C．The industry cost might be increased．
D．The people's hearing might be affected．
（3）What does the underlined word "nocturnal" in Paragraph 5 mean？
A．Active at night．
B．Inactive at night．
C．Active during the day．
D．Inactive during the day．
（4）Why do some birds thrive in noisy environments？
A．Because there are fewer dangers．
B．Because there is more food to eat．
C．Because there is less light pollution
D．Because there are more places to take shelter．組卷：1引用：2難度：0.6
