Passage 3
Questions 41-50
It's a sound you will probably never hear, a sickened tree sending out a distress signal. But a
group of scientists has heard the cries, and they think some insects also hear the trees and are
drawn to them like vultures to a dying animal. (5) Researchers with the U.S. Department of
Agriculture's Forest Service fastened sensors to the bark of parched trees and clearly heard
distress calls. According to one of the scientists, most drought-stricken trees transmit their
plight in the 50- to 500- kilohertz range. (The unaided human ear can detect no more than
(10) 20 kilohertz.) Red oak, maple, white pine, and birch all make slightly different sounds in
the form of vibrations at the surface of the wood. The scientists think that the vibrations are
created when the water columns inside tubes that run the length of the tree break, (15) a result
of too little water flowing through them. These fractured columns send out distinctive
vibration patterns. Because some insects communicate at ultrasonic frequencies, they may
pick up the trees'vibrations and attack the weakened trees. Researchers are now running tests
with potted trees that have been deprived of (20) water to see if the sound is what attracts the
insects. "Waterstressed trees also smell differently from other trees, and they experience
thermal changes, so insects could be responding to something other than sound," one scientist
said.

(B) scientists

educational development of children, who are currently learning independently, learning
boldly (on the network).
Bold or online learning is a learning system without direct face to face between
teachers and students but learning is done through the internet network. This is a big
challenge for a teacher, because in conditions like this the teacher is also able to manage and
design learning media (online media) in such a way as to achieve learning goals and to
prevent or anticipate student boredom in learning the bold model.
Always monitor the progress of the COVID-19 disease from official and accurate
sources. Follow directions and information from health workers and the local Health Service.
