Mney Daniels spends several hurs every week cleaning up cans and bttles in the rivers near his hme with ther teen envirnmentalists in Chattanga, TN. Tgether, they have cllected mre than 1 tn f aluminum cans, nearly 1,000 cans a week fr a year. In January, he c-funded a club called the Cleanup Kids with his best friend. The prject’s missin: t encurage kids t pick up 1 millin punds f trash acrss the glbe befre the end f the year.
Daniels says he first develped a passin fr wildlife when he was 3. “As far back as I can remember, I’ve always lved animals,” Daniels says. Marine life especially interests him. When he began discvering trash n walks alng the river with his family, he immediately thught f his favrite sea creatures.
His missin nw is saving the earth’s rivers, which he pints ut are even mre plluted than the wrld’s ceans. “Eighty percent f the cean’s trash cmes frm rivers,” he says. In 2019, he adpted the name Cnservatin Kid n Instagram, and started psting abut things like hw smething as simple as a deserted face mask can entangle (缠住), chke, and kill turtles, birds, and fish. Mask waste has increased an estimated 9,000% since the pandemic(疫情) began.
Althugh he mstly speaks t ther teens, Daniels has fund that adults are ften persuaded by his argument that cleaning up, recycling, and ridding plastic ught t be a selfish act fr humanity: when plastics break dwn, they can wind up in ur drinking water. He has met with the mayr f his city, and his experiences speaking with influential grwnups has cnvinced him that adults can change their habits.
But, in truth, the burden t save the planet has landed n children like him. “Kids may be a small percent f the ppulatin, but we’re 100% f the future,” he says. “And we can save the wrld.”
4. What led t the birth f Daniel’s prject?
A. The inspiratin frm his best friend.

B. The river pllutin requires less attentin.
C. Many animals are infected in the pandemic.
D. River waste cntributes mst t the cean’s trash.
6. Which f the fllwing can best describe Mney Daniels?
A. Optimistic and creative.
B. Caring and respnsible.
C. Cnsiderate and generus.
D. Curageus and devted.
7. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. Grwnups’ selfish behavirs fr humanity.

Desperately ill and seeking a miracle David Bennett Sr. tk the last bet n Jan. 7. when be became the first human t be successfully transplanted with the heart f a pig. “It creates the beat; it creates the pressure; it is his heart,” declared Bartley Griffith, directr f the surgical team that perfrmed the peratin at the University f Maryland Medical Center.
Bennett, 57, held n thrugh 60 tmrrws, far lnger than any previus patient wh’d received a heart frm anther species. His remarkable run ffered new hpe that such prcedures, knwn as xentransplantatin (异种移植), culd help relieve the shrtage f replacement rgans, saving thusands f lives each year.
The earliest attempts at xentransplantatin f rgans, invlving kidneys frm rabbits, gats, and ther animals, ccurred in the early 20th century, decades befre the first successful human-t-human transplants. Rejectin, which ccurs when the recipient’s bdy system recgnizes the dnr rgan as a freign bject and attacks it, fllwed within hurs r days. Results imprved after sme special drugs arrived in the 1960s, but mst recipients still died after a few weeks. The recrd fr a heart xentransplant was set in 1983, when an infant named Baby Fae survived fr 20 days with an rgan frm a babn (狒狒).
In recent years, hwever, advances in gene editing have pened a new pssibility: re-edit sme genes in animals t prvide user-friendly spare parts. Pigs culd be ideal fr this purpse, because they’re easy t raise and reach adult human size in mnths. Sme bitech cmpanies. including Revivicr, are investing heavily in the field. The dnr pig was ffered by Revivicr frm a line f animals in which 10 genes had been re-edited t imprve the heart’s cnditin. Beynd that, the pig was raised in islatin and tested regularly fr viruses that culd infect humans r damage the rgan itself.
This medical breakthrugh prvided an alternative fr the 20% f patients n the heart transplant waiting list wh die while waiting r becme t sick t be a gd candidate.
8. What des the underlined wrd “run” in paragraph 2 refer t?
A. Dnating his heart t a patient.
B. Perfrming the heart peratin.
C. Living fr 60 days after the peratin.
D. Receiving a new heart frm a pig.
9. Which aspect f xentransplantatin des paragraph 3 mainly fcus n?
A. Its histry.B. Its prcedure.C. Its cnsequence.D. Its significance.
10. What makes pigs ideal fr prviding spare parts in xentransplantatin?
A. Their grwth rate and health cnditin.
B. Their life pattern and resistance t viruses.
C. Their easiness f keeping and rapid grwth.
D Their investment value and natural qualities.
11. Why was Bennett’s peratin regarded as a breakthrugh?
A. It intrduced new medicatins t prevent rgan rejectin.
B. It prved the ptential fr using rgans frm varius animals.
C. It guaranteed a sufficient supply f dnr pigs fr transplants.
D. It ffered a prspect f replacement rgans thrugh gene editing.

In the animal kingdm, mimics (模仿) are nt rare. Stick insects pretend t be twigs. Hawk mth caterpillars resemble pisnus snakes. The examples, thugh, are visual. Auditry mimicry is rarer. Danil Russ f the University f Naples Federic II thinks he has fund a nvel case f it, as he describes in Current Bilgy. Sme bats, he believes, mimic angry bees in rder t scare away wls that might therwise eat them.
Dr. Russ first nticed bat buzzing a few years ag. The nise struck him as similar t the sund f sme bees. He wndered whether bat buzzing was a frm f mimicry which helped t scare ff wuld-be predatrs.
T test this idea, he and his clleagues first recrded the buzzing that captured bats made. Then, with prtective clthing, they began the mre dangerus task f recrding the buzzing made by different bees. Cmputer analysis revealed that bees’ and bats’ buzzing were, indeed, similar.
Then the researchers recruited several wls. They put the wls, ne at a time, in an enclsure with branches fr them t stay n, and tw bxes with hles in them. They placed a ludspeaker alngside ne f the bxes and, after the birds had settled in, bradcast thrugh it five secnds f uninterrupted bat buzzing and a similar amunt f insect buzzing three times in a rw fr each nise. As a cntrl, they bradcast in like manner several nn-buzzing sunds made by bats.
During the bradcasts and fr five minutes thereafter, they videed the wls. After analysis, the results were unequivcal. When they heard bth the bat buzzing and the bee buzzing, the wls mved as far frm the speakers as they culd. In cntrast, when the nn-buzzing bat sunds were played, they crept clser.
Dr. Russ believes this is the first reprted case f a mammal using auditry mimicry t scare away a predatr. They strngly suspect, hwever, that it is nt unique. Anecdtes suggest several birds als make buzzing nises when their nests are disturbed. And with the result f the experiment, he therefre predicts that auditry mimicry is far mre widespread than currently realized.
12. What was Dr. Russ’s assumptin f the study?
A. Bats imitate the vice f angry bees t frighten away enemies.
B. The buzzing f bats is similar t the sund f sme bees.
C. Auditry mimicry is rather cmmn in the animal kingdm.
D. Only sme bats have the capacity f auditry mimicry.
13. Hw did Dr. Russ test his idea?
A. By cnsulting experts in this field.B. By referring t ther schlars’ analysis.
C By cllecting cmputer data.D. By cnducting series f scientific experiments.
14. What des the underlined wrd “unequivcal” in paragraph 5 pssibly mean?
A. Disappinting.B. Cntrversial.C. Definite.D. Uncertain.
15. What is a suitable title fr the text?
A. A New Trick t Scare Away OwlsB. Animal Mimicry: Buzz ff
C. A Self-prtectin Behavir amng AnimalsD. Bats: N Mre Victim t Owls
