阅读下面两篇短文，从1I-20各题所给的四个选项(ABCD)中，选出最佳选项。
A
Have you ever had your lunch stolen by a seagull()at the beach Whether it's a sandwich,French fries,or
an ice cream cone,seagulls seem to love rushing down and taking a human's food away.A study has now shown that
this is not a secret.Seagulls really are more likely to steal food if they see humans eating it first.
Scientists from the University of Sussex in the UK carried out their research at Brighton
Beach,on the south coast of England.They found a clear piece of beach and taped()two different potato chip bags
to tiles that were placed near some seagulls.The research team used a green bag of chips(salt and vinegar)and a blue
bag of chips (cheese and onion).
The scientists then moved about 16 feet away and began recording the birds'action.At first the scientists just sat
there,looking at the camera without eating or doing anything else.Then,to test whether the birds were paying
attention,the researchers ate from a bag of chips that looked like one of the bags left on the beach.They did this to
interest the seagulls.
When the scientists did nothing,only about one fifth of the seagulls were interested enough to come over and
looked into the chips on the ground.When the scientists started eating chips,nearly half of the birds got close to the
chip bags.When the birds started pecking (at the bags on the ground,almost all of them went for the
same-color bag as the one the scientists were eating from.
The study suggests that choosing not to feed seagulls at the beach is not enough to solve the food snatch()
problem.Since the birds seem to make choices about what to snack on by watching humans,people shouldn't let
seagulls see them eat.One researcher,Franziska Feist,told the reporters that because seagulls and humans at the
beach hadn't been in close touch for long,this ability must come from the seagulls'general smartness and behavioral
adaptability(适应性).
11.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about
A.Preparing for research.
B.The results of the research.
C.Watching the birds'action.
D.The importance of the research.
12.What was the purpose of the researchers eating chips
A.To taste different flavors.B.To make themselves full.
C.To make birds feel interested.D.To find the birds'favorite chips.
13.How many birds showed interest in chips when the scientists did somnething
A.About 20%.B.About 50%.C.About 80%.D.About 100%.
