A.By comparing birds with human beings.

　　B.By reporting experimental results.

　　C.By describing birds’ daily life.

　　D.By telling a bird’s story.

　　答案:A

　　解析:行文方法题。根据第一段可知,作者将鸟叫和人唱歌以及吹口哨作了类比,故选A项。

　　B

　　Your dilemma(进退两难) has two aspects:your employer demands loyalty,but you want to help another working woman.The question is whether you can act properly towards both.Your personal view about the unfair maternity policy makes it complicated.In the United States,paid maternity leave(带薪产假) is not an automatic benefit guaranteed by the government.Even unpaid leave is only permitted for a limited period with certain working hours.

　　It’s understandable that you feel such divided loyalties,said Gretchen Zetoony,a licensed clinical expert in Virginia.“On the one hand,you want to be careful not to provide information that might discomfort your employer in a negotiation;on the other hand,it’s natural to feel sympathetic toward someone in a similar situation,particularly if you see the company’s policy as unfair,”she said.

　　Before you give advice on negotiating a better maternity-leave package,remember to be careful with what you say.“If you are nervous that your employer could learn you had advised her,that should be a guide for you that you may wander into a questionable area,”Zetoony said.
