V Read these passages carefully and choose the best answer A, B, C or D to questions below.
Birds that feed in flocks commonly retire together into roosts The reasons for roosting communally are not always obvious, but there are some likely benefits In winter especially, it is important for birds to keep warm at night and
conserve precious food reserves One way to do this is to find a sheltered roost Solitary roosters shelter in dense
vegetation or enter a cavity - horned larks dig holes in the ground and ptarmigan burrow into snow banks - but the effect of
sheltering is magnified by several birds huddling together in the roosts, as wrens, swifts, brown creepers, bluebirds, and anis do Body contact reduces the surface area exposed to the cold air,so the birds keep each other warm Two kinglets
huddling together were found to reduce their heat losses by a quarter and three together saved a third of their heat The
second possible benefit of communal roosts is that they act as “information centers ” During the day, parties of birds will have spread out to forage over a very large area When they return in the evening some will have fed well, but others may
have found little to eat Some investigators have observed that when the birds set out again next morning, those birds that did not feed well on the previous day appear to follow those that did The behavior of common and lesser kestrels may illustrate different feeding behaviors of similar birds with different roosting habits The common kestrel hunts vertebrate animals in a small, familiar hunting ground, whereas the very similar lesser kestrel feeds on insects over a large area The
common kestrel roosts and hunts alone, but the lesser kestrel roosts and hunts in flocks, possibly so one bird can learn
from others where to find insect swarms
Finally, there is safety in numbers at communal roosts since there will always be a few birds awake at any given moment
to give the alarm But this increased protection is partially counteracted by the fact that mass roosts attract predators and are especially vulnerable if they are on the ground Even those in trees can be attacked by birds of prey The birds on the
edge are at greatest risk since predators find it easier to catch small birds perching at the margins of the roost
46 What does the passage mainly discuss?

The influenza virus is a single molecule composed of millions of individual atoms Although bacteria can be considered a type of plant, secreting poisonous substances into the body of the organism they attack, viruses, like the
Trang 3influenza virus, are living organisms themselves We may consider them regular chemical molecules since they have
strictly defined atomic structure; but on the other hand, we must also consider them as being alive since they are able to multiply in unlimited quantities.
An attack brought on by the presence of the influenza virus in the body produces a temporary immunity, but, unfortunately, the protection is against only the type of virus that caused the influenza
Because the disease can be produced by anyone of three types, referred to as A, B, or C, and many varieties within each type, immunity to one virus will not prevent infection by other types or strains Protection from the influenza virus is also complicated by the fact that immunity to a specific virus persists for less than a year Finally, because a virus may periodically change characteristics, the problem of mutation makes it difficult to carry out a successful immunization program Vaccines are often ineffective against newly evolving strains
Approximately every ten years, worldwide epidemics of influenza called pandemics occur
Thought to be caused by new strains of type-A virus, these pandemic viruses have spread rapidly, infecting millions of people
Vaccines have been developed that have been found to be 70 to 90 percent effective for at least six months against either A or B types of the influenza virus, and a genetically engineered live-virus vaccine is under development Currently, the United States Public Health Service recommends annual vaccination only for those at greatest risk of complications from influenza, including pregnant women and the elderly Nevertheless, many other members of the general population request and receive flu shots every year, and even more are immunized during epidemic or pandemic cycles

62 The word unlimited in paragraph 1 could best be replaced by which of the following?

B It produces immunity to the type and strain of virus that invaded it
C It becomes immune to types A, B, and C viruses, but not to various strains within the types
