A new reprt warns that Australia’s native wildlife culd see extremely unfrtunate effects frm nnnative plants and animals.
Experts at the natinal science agency, the CSIRO, are predicting much f the cuntry’s native plants and animals are in danger. They believe they culd disappear by 2050 unless immediate actin is taken.
Nnnative species have invaded(侵略) Australia and threaten t verrun(侵占) native plants and animals. Intrduced species are endangering mre than 80 percent f Australia’s threatened species.
Andy Sheppard, the CSIRO’s research directr, said Australia’s clnizatin(殖民) by the British mre than 200 years ag has left harmful envirnmental effects. He added that there were grups set up t intrduce plants and animals by design s the Eurpeans felt mre at hme. Australia just like New Zealand has suffered as a result. “Australia unfrtunately has the wrst recrd internatinally fr mammalian(哺乳动物) disappearance,” he said and nted that this has much t d with the activities f intrduced cats and fxes.
The reprt estimated(估计) the cst f the damage caused by invasive species in Australia at abut $18 billin each year and grwing. The study said that immediate actin was needed t stp the spread f invasive species and prtect Australia’s “irreplaceable native animals and plants”.
Traditinally, chemical and bilgical cntrls have been used t manage wild pest ppulatins.
There are debates abut these methds and sme supprters f animals are against them as inhumane.
Scientists in Australia are wrking n genetic pest cntrl methds. Testing is under way n small labratry animals, but a s-called “wrking system” culd be up t five years away. One pssible bicntrl(生物防治) includes limiting their ability t reprduce.
8.What are threatened in Australia because f the intrduced species nw?
A.Lcal peple.
B.Animals’ habitats.
C.Native animals and plants.
D.Unique mammalian.
9.Why are there s many nnnative species in Australia?
A.Because Eurpeans brught them t Australia.
B.Because Australians lve Eurpean wildlife.
C.Because f the activities f cats and fxes.
D.Because f the disappearance f mammalian.
10.What can be inferred frm the text?
A.Scientists have limited the ppulatins f invasive species successfully.
B.Thse traditinal measures have n effect n intrduced species at all.
C.Sme peple dn’t cnsider the ways t deal with invasive species right.
D.Genetic methds have prven perfect in cntrlling invasive species.
11.Which f the fllwing might be the best title fr the text?
A.Danger frm Nnnative Wildlife in Australia
B.Australian Native Wildlife in Great Danger
C.New Ways t Cntrl Nnnative Wildlife
D.The New finding by Scientists in Australia

Ancient builders acrss the wrld created structures that are still standing tday, thusands f years later. Yet the cncrete that makes up much f ur mdern wrld has a lifespan f arund 50 t 100 years. A grwing number f scientists have been studying materials frm lng-ag eras, hping t uncver hw they’ve held up fr millennia.
Many researchers have turned t the Rmans fr inspiratin. Starting arund 200 BCE, the architects f the Rman Empire were building impressive cncrete structures that have std the test f time. Even in harbrs, where seawater has been battering structures fr ages, yu’ll find cncrete basically the way it was when it was pured 2,000 years ag. Mst mdern cncrete starts with Prtland cement, a pwder made by heating limestne and clay t super-high temperatures and crushing them. That cement is mixed with water t create a chemically reactive paste. Then, blcks f material like rck and gravel are added, and the cement paste mixes them int a cncrete mass. Accrding t recrds frm ancient architects, the Rman prcess was similar. The ancient builders mixed materials like burnt limestne and vlcanic sand with water and gravel, creating chemical reactins t stick everything tgether.
In a study published earlier this year, Admir Masic, a civil and envirnmental engineer, prpsed that this pwer cmes frm blcks f lime that are scattered thrughut the Rman material instead f being mixed in evenly. Researchers used t think these blcks were a sign that the Rmans weren’t mixing up their materials well enugh. Instead, after analyzing cncrete samples frm Privernum—an ancient city utside f Rme — the scientists fund that the blcks culd fuel the material’s “self-healing” abilities. When cracks frm, water is able t flw int the cncrete, Masic explained. That water activates the leftver lime, leading t new chemical reactins that can fill in the damaged sectins.
The ancient architectures suggested using extracts frm lcal chukum and jite trees in the lime mix. When researchers tested ut the recipe, they fund the resulting plaster was especially durable against physical and chemical damage.
Studies have fund all kinds f natural materials mixed int structures frm lng ag: fruit extracts, milk, cheese curd, beer, even dung and urine. The paste that hlds tgether sme f China’s mst famus structures—including the Great Wall and the Frbidden City — includes traces f sticky rice.
“Sme f these ancient builders might have just gtten lucky”, said Cecilia Pesce, a materials scientist at the University f Sheffield in England, “They’d thrw just abut anything int their mixes, as lng as it was cheap and available.”
Tday’s builders can’t just cpy the ancient recipes. Even thugh Rman cncrete lasted a lngtime, it culdn’t hld up heavy lads: “Yu culdn’t build a mdern skyscraper with Rman cncrete,” Cecilia said. “It wuld cllapse.” Instead, researchers are trying t take sme f the ancient material’s specialties and add them int mdern mixes.
12.Which f the fllwing statements is TRUE accrding t the passage?
A.Lime blcks in Rman cncrete indicate pr mixing f materials.
B.Ancient Rman cncrete structures have witnessed a lng histry.
C.Mdern builders are cnfused abut the Rman methd f cnstructin.
D.The cncrete used in mdern structures has a lifespan f ver 200 years.
13.What is prpsed as a pssible explanatin fr the self-healing abilities f Rman cncrete?
A.The unifrm mixing f lime in the cncrete.
B.The use f extracts frm chukum and jite trees.
C.The additin f whatever was within reach in the mix.
D.The scattering f blcks f lime thrughut the material.
14.The passage mentins that tday’s builders can’t simply cpy ancient recipes because ______.
A.ancient recipes were nt well-dcumented
B.ancient materials were t expensive
C.ancient materials culdn’t hld up heavy lads
D.ancient builders used materials that are n lnger available
15.Accrding t the passage, why d sme researchers believe ancient builders included varius natural materials in their mixes?
A.T enhance the beauty f the structures.
B.T make the cnstructin prcess mre cst-effective.
C.T create structures that were resistant t chemical damage.
D.T fllw ancient traditins withut cnsidering effectiveness.

请阅读下面短文,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
Much is unknwn abut hw Cvid-19, a new crnavirus, spreads. Current knwledge is largely based n what is knwn abut similar crnaviruses. Crnaviruses are a large family f viruses that are cmmn in many different species f animals, including camels, cattle, cats, and bats. Rarely, animal crnaviruses can infect peple and then spread between peple such as with MERS, SARS, and nw with Cvid-19.
Mst ften, spread frm persn-t-persn happens amng clse cntacts (abut 6 feet). Persn-t-persn spread is thught t ccur mainly via respiratry drplets (呼吸飞沫) prduced when an infected persn cughs r sneezes, similar t hw influenza and ther respiratry pathgens (病原体) spread. These drplets can land in the muths r nses f peple wh are nearby r pssibly be inhaled int the lungs. It's currently unclear if a persn can get Cvid-19 by tuching a surface r bject that has the virus n it and then tuching their wn muth, nse, r pssibly their eyes.
It's imprtant t nte that hw easily a virus spreads persn-t-persn can vary. Sme viruses are highly cntagius (传染性) (like measles), while ther viruses are less s. There is much mre t learn abut the transmissibility severity, and ther features assciated with Cvid-19.

While crnaviruses inhabiting in wild animals rarely spread between peple,Cvid-19 actually has persin-t-persn transmissibility,mainly thrugh clse cntacts with an in fected persn,especially his respiratry drplets.
In a bid t cntain the spread f Cvid-19bth the gvernment and individuals shuld pay clse attentin t it. Besides putting strict restrictiin n travelling everywhere,the gvernment shuld educate peple n hw t prevent the virus. Fr individuals, it's necessary t bey the regulatinsr eleased by the gvernment.
