9、ake people upBAs skies are filled with millions of migrating(迁徙) birds，European scientists say the seasonal wonder appears to be strange：The fatter the bird，the better it flies.The results of their study led to a theory opposite to a central one of aerodynamics(空气动力学)，which says that the power neede
10、d to fly increases with weight. For birds，obviously，the cost of flying with heavy fat is much smaller than we used to think. Researchers found that red knot wading birds double their normal body weight of 100 grams before making their twice-a-year nonstop flight between the British Isles and the Rus
11、sian Arctic. Distance：5,000 kilometers.Another study in the magazine Nature measured the advantage of flying in an aerodynamics group which allows birds to save energy by flying smoothly and quietly in the lead birds air stream. Flying in groups，their heart rates were 14.5 percent lower than flying
12、alone, according to Henri, a French scientist. The findings help explain how birds complete difficult migrations. Researchers had thought that thinner, stronger birds would have the best chance to survive. The first study suggests that building up fat to be burnt as fuel during the migration is wort
13、h more than the energy it takes to carry the additional weight. In the study，researchers said their team studied the birds flown at different body weights during 28 simulated(模拟的) flights. They forced a small amount of special water into the birds bodies so that they could measure the amount of ener
