14、p; Blooms.DGarden Highlights Walking Tour.I look forward to my half-hour train ride to work every morning. I can look out of the window as it twists and turns itself through neighborhoods with the sun casting its strong light on the floor of the train car. I sometimes get lost in thought while follo
15、wing the light. But the reason I love this ride is that its a reminder of how neighborhoods can change from block to block. For almost a year now I have been. riding this train as I head into the office where I work as a reporter for a local magazine. I am one of 13 journalists who help report commu
16、nity news in areas that are often forgotten. And for me,that means covering areas like the one I grew up in. Last week? as I was on the way to my office, I started wondering how neighborhoods have changed since the 2008 housing crisis. I searched addresses on the citys southwest side, a neighborhood
17、 that has seen a significant number of residential homes pulled down. I scanned the street views recorded on my phone and saw how the neighborhood looked in 2007. Then I set out to visit the city block, and thats when I met 3-year-old Harmony. Harmony loved collecting rocks for me to hold as I walke

I already knew what the neighborhood looked like in the past, but Marquita shared more details of the people who once lived on her block, who were really friendly to each other. However, people today in the neighborhood are busy with life and seldom say h
19、ello to each other. Marquita has lived on this block her entire life, and Harmony has for most of her short life as well. But the neighborhood that Marquita grew up in will be one that is obviously different from the one Harmony will grow to know. In the end, they smiled at my camera. And then I got

30、high price.Sulphur-crested cockatoos (葵花凤头鹦鹉) are common in western Australia, where they normally live in wooded areas. But as forests have been cut down, cockatoos have gotten used to living near people. Scientists report that people in Sydney, Australia are in a battle with these birds.Last year,
31、 scientists at the Max Planck Institute reported that the cockatoos had learned how to open the covers of trash bins. Thats not an easy job. The cockatoos must lift the heavy cover with their beaks (喙) and then walk along, pushing the cover up until it falls over.When scientists first began studying
32、 the cockatoos in 2018, only three areas near Sydney had cover-opening cockatoos. A year and a half later, cockatoos in 44 different areas knew the trick. This time the scientists werent just studying cockatoos. They were also studying humans.The scientists spent weeks studying more than 3,200 trash
33、 bins in four different areas of Sydney. They wanted to see how many bins were protected and what methods were used.In one area, over half the bins were protected. The most common way of protecting the bins was to put a brick or some other heavy objects on the cover. Some people put things like rubb
34、er snakes on the top of their bins. The scientists discovered that the humans were teaching each other tricks, too. In most neighborhoods, many people used the same cockatoo-stopping methods as their neighbors.The researchers say its like a race between humans and cockatoos to learn new ways of doin
35、g things. Now many cockatoos have learned how to push heavy items off the bins. As a result, humans have figured out ways to attach the items to the top of their bins. The scientists describe the situation as a “human-wildlife conflict”. They expect these conflicts will become more common as humans
