Produced by the muscular movements of insects called treehopper (角蝉), this imagined soundscape comes from vibrations(共鸣、振动)that flow across the surface of plants. But it is not at all like the familiar vocalizations of crickets( 蟋蟀); instead, it’s something richer, more varied. Some sounds are song-like, others are similar to the noises of machines or musical instruments. The noise made from even a single plant may be “as noisy as a busy street”. In An Immense World: How Animal Senses Reveal the Hidden Realms Around Us, Pulitzer prize-winning science journalist Ed Yong explains that, on a real walk instead of this one we’ve imagined, humans would not be able to hear the treehoppers’ music without special equipment. In the company of scientists with a laser vibrometer(振动计), a device that changes the treehopper vibrations into sounds audible to human ears, Yong gets to hear them in the wild and in the laboratory. He is shocked by the attractive sounds. In this book that follows on from 2018’s I Contain Multitudes, Yong writes in a perfect balance of scientific severity and personal awe as he invites readers to grasp something of how other animals experience the world. Communicating through surface vibrations is a rather cool example that extends beyond treehoppers to elephants and spiders, and to this fact about frogs. Attuned to vibrations entering the eggs, frog hatches quickly if a snake shows up with a hard bite, but ignore rain, wind, footsteps and even an earthquake. My admiration for the book is, well, immense. Like many thousands of other people, I have relied throughout the course of COVID-19 on Yong’s reporting at The Atlantic as he cracked open the fast-changing world of pandemic science. Now, with An Immense World, Yong brings into 第 4 页 共 21 页 （北京）股份有限公司 beautiful focus a host of other animal sensory worlds that co-exist with ours, and how we may 第 4 页 共 21 页 （北京）股份有限公司 protect them. 24. How does the soundscape come about according to paragraph 1? A. It comes from humans’ muscles. B. It arises from the vocalizations of crickets. C. It comes from an imaginable world. D. It arises from vibrations flowing across the surface of plants. 25.Why can Yong hear the treehopper’s music? A. Because of a laser device. B. Because of the surface of plants. C. Because of the nature of the insects. D. Because of the special imaginable environment. 26. What can we learn about An Immense World? A. It appeals to all kinds of peoples. B. It is aimed at protecting the animals. C. It is scheduled to be published next year. D. It describes a virtual world full of animals. 27. What is the text? A. A news report. B. A historical novel. C.
