Part III CLOZE TEST (10 minutes, 10 points, 1 point each)
The song of crickets (蟋蟀) captures the attention of millions of people worldwide. How does this small creature sing and for what purpose?
Interestingly, among the approximately 2,400 41 of crickets, only the males sing, or chirp.
42 doing so from their throats, male crickets make music with their wings. One expert explains that male crickets chirp by rubbing part of one forewing along 43 about 50 to 250 teeth on the opposite fo
rewing. The frequency of the chirps depends on the number of teeth 44 per second. The vibrations fill the air with the distinctive song of the cricket.
But surely the male cricket does not sing simply to 45 his human listeners! No, indeed! The intended audience of this musician is a 46 mate. The book Exploring the Secrets of Nature explains: "In his quest for a mate, the male cricket, a skilled 47 , sings three different songs: one to advertise his presence, another to court and the other to threaten unwanted competitors." Some crickets continue to sing to advertise their presence 48    a female cricket shows interest. Hearing the song through the "ears" on her forelegs, the female is not 49 to carry on a long-distance courtship. As she approaches the 50 of the chirping, the male cricket will begin to sing a continuous trill (颤音), the courtship song. This attracts the female to him, and the two crickets mate.
