24、heir population has declined from 100,000 a century ago to just 3,500 today.But despite these challenges,Nepals wild tigers have successfully returned from the edge of extinction with a 190 per cent population increase since 2009. According to Nepals National Tiger and Prey Survey 2022,there are now
25、 355 wild tigers in the country, compared to 121 in 2010. This amounts to a 190 per cent increase, meaning that the country nearly tripled its tiger population.Ginette Hemley,Senior Vice President for wildlife conservation at the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), said ,“Tigers in Nepal and everywhere else
26、that they live in Asia,about 10countries, were on a steady decline because of two key reasons. The most immediate reason was poaching for the illegal animal trade. The second reason was loss of habitat.”To achieve this comeback in tiger numbers, Nepal laid ban on poaching, with anti-poaching groups
27、patrolling protected areas. Another factor in the countrys success was the restoration of corridors to promote the safe passage and genetic distribution of tigers in protected areas.Hemley said,“Nepal really does stand out as a leader in conservation,especially for tigers. There is support for conse

32、k: the top performer in that area or someone barely getting by? Most people would choose the top performer. That persons advice, however, may not be any more helpful.“Skillful performance and skillful teaching are not always the same thing, so we shouldnt expect the best performers to necessarily be
33、 the best teachers as well,” said David Levari (Harvard Business School), lead author of a recent Psychological Science article.Across four studies, he and co-authors found that top performers dont give better advice than other performers， at least in some domains（领域）. Rather，they just give more of
34、it.“Our studies suggest that at least in some instances, people may overvalue advice from top performers,”the researchers wrote.“In our experiments, people given advice by top performers thought that it helped them more, even though it usually didnt. Surprisingly, they thought so even though they di
35、dnt know anything about the people who wrote their advice,” said Levari. “Top performers didnt write more helpful advice, but they did write more of it, and people in our experiments mistook quantity for quality,” Levari added.So, why wasnt the advice more helpful? Levari and colleagues have a few i
36、deas. First,skilled performers may overlook fundamental advice because natural talent and extensive practice have made conscious thought unnecessary. Second, top performers may not be skilled communicators. Even when an excellent performer does have explicit information to share,they may not be espe
37、cially good at sharing it. Finally, a large quantity of advice may be more than what can realistically be carried out.“We spend a lot of time and money looking for good advice, whether from coworkers and coaches,teachers and tutors, or friends and family,” said Levari. “The next time you get advice,
38、you should think less about how much of it there was, and more about how much of it you could actually use.”32.How did the author introduce the topic of the text?A.By comparing data.B.By raising a question.C.
