Molting is one of the most involved processes of a bird's annual life cycle Notwithstanding preening and constant care, the marvelously intricate structure of a bird's feather inevitably wears out All adult
birds molt their feathers at least once a year, and upon close observation, one can recognize the frayed, ragged appearance of feathers that are nearing the end of their useful life Two distinct processes are involved in molting
Trang 5The first step is when the old, worn feather is dropped, or shed The second is when a new feather grows
in its place When each feather has been shed and replaced, then the molt can be said to be complete This, however, is an abstraction that often does not happen: incomplete, overlapping, and arrested molts are quite common
Molt requires that a bird find and process enough protein to rebuild approximately one- third of its body weight It is not surprising that a bird in heavy molt often seems listless and unwell But far from being
random, molt is controlled by strong evolutionary forces that have established an optimal time and
duration Generally, molt occurs at the time of least stress on the bird Many songbirds, for instance, molt
in late summer, when the hard work of breeding is done but the weather is still warm and food still plentiful This is why the woods in late summer often seem so quiet, when compared with the exuberant choruses of spring
Molt of the flight feathers is the most highly organized part of the process Some species, for example, begin by dropping the outermost primary feathers on each side (to retain balance in the air) and wait until the replacement feathers are about one-third grown before shedding the next outermost, and so on
Others always start with the innermost primary feathers and work outward Yet other species begin in the
middle and work outward on both weeks while the replacement feathers grow

A birds prepare for breeding B bird feathers differ from species
C birds shed and replace their feathers D birds are affected by seasonal changes
Question 37 The word "Notwithstanding'' in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _.
Question 38 The word “intricate” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _
Question 39 The word "optimal" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _.
Question 40 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason that songbirds molt in the late
summer?
A Fewer predators are in the woods B The weathers is still warm.
C The songbirds have finished breeding D Food is still available.
Question 41 Some birds that are molting maintain balance during flight by _.
A constantly preening and caring fortheir remaining feathers
B dropping flight feathers on both sides at the same time
C adjusting the angle of their flight to compensate for lost feathers
D only losing one-third of their feathers
Question 42.The word "Others” in the last paragraph refers to _.
