The wmen jumped int the back seat, cughing. Nearby, flames that climbed 30 meters burned their neighbrs’ hmes. Sn theirs wuld fall, as well.
“I’ll lead yu ut,” Raley yelled t Kumar. “Take yur car.”
Debris(碎片) attacked the truck, cracking Raley’s windshield and breaking the ther windws as the wind blew the vehicle ff the rad. The captain threw himself acrss the passenger seat, prtecting his face as the fire passed ver them. Yasda and Sushma screamed.

Never has there been a primate as big as Gigantpithecus blacki. Adults f this ancient ape(猿) std abut 10 feet tail and culd weigh mre than 500 punds, wandering the thick frests f ancient China during the last Ice Age.
Why this impressive animal went extinct has puzzled scientists since the ape was discvered nearly a century ag. But nw, a new analysis suggests that the primate’s unique lifestyle left it vulnerable
The new study cmbines gelgical dates, pllen recrds, and clues preserved inside fssil teeth t present a detailed timeline f when, and hw, Gigantpithecus blacki went extinct. The results reveal the creature’s decline and ultimate demise in fine detail
Kira Westaway, lead authr f the new study and a gechrnlgist at Macquarie University in Sydney, wrked t cme up with mre accurate dates fr the sediments(沉积物) that Gigantpithecus fssils have been fund in. Studies f fssil pllen frm the Gigantpithecus sites als allwed researchers t study hw the animal’s habitat was changing. Prir t 700,000 years ag, bth Gigantpithecus and Png weidenreichi, anther ancient ape, lived in frests where they ate leaves, fruits, and flwers available much f the year rund. Due t the envirnmental changes, dense frests f pines, birches and chestnut relatives gave way t mre pen habitats with larger patches f grassland Hwever, Gigantpithecus had a difficult time finding preferred fds. Meanwhile Png weidenreichi changed its diet t live n-fibrus-plants that were mre readily available.
“It was the respnse f G, blacki t these changes that sealed its fate, " Westaway says. The giant apes were s big that they had t mve n the grund and were limited in hw far they culd venture, trying t make the mst f twigs, bark, and ther tugh fds that were still accessible. It wasn’t enugh.
Yet knwing the ending f the ape’s stry hardly clses the case n the giant primate. Did these huge primates fllw the same path t extinctin, r did the stry vary by lcatin? This research pens new questins even as it explains the disappearance f Earth’s mst huge ape.
28. What des the new research aim t d?
A. T study the climate changes f ancient China.
B. T analyze the gelgical features f the last Ice Age.
C. T slve the mystery f the Gigantpithecus blacki’s extinctin.
D. T present sme detailed findings f the Gigantpithecus blacki’s habitat.
29. What des the underlined wrd “demise” in the third paragraph mean?
A. Change.B. Remval.C. Adaptatin.D. Extinctin.
30. What d we knw abut the study?
A. The timing f the giant ape’s disappearance was wrked ut.
B. Anther ape was included t shw their cmmn habitat.
C. The envirnmental shift had little impact n the giant ape’s habitat.
D. Sme fssil pllen were studied t reveal the giant ape’s diet preference.
31. What can be suggested frm Westaway ‘ s wrds abut the giant ape?
A. The giant ape respnded t the change f its habitat easily.
B. The inability t adapt quickly caused its disappearance.
C. The giant ape had sufficient fd resurces n the grassland.
D. The frested habitat was still accessible t the giant ape.
D
Nuclear bmbs. That’s the g-t answer fr incming space bjects like asterids(小行星) and cmets, as far as Hllywd is cncerned. Mvies like Deep Impact and Armageddn rely n nuclear weapns, delivered by stars like Bruce Willis, t save the wrld and deliver the drama. But planetary defense experts say in reality, if astrnmers sptted a dangerus incming space rck, the safest and best answer might be smething mre subtle, like simply pushing it ff curse by crashing it with a small spacecraft.
That’s just what NASA did n Mnday evening, when a spacecraft headed straight int an asterid called Dimrphus, which is arund 7 millin miles away and pses n threat t Earth. It’s abut 525 feet acrss and rbits anther larger asterid. In images streamed as the impact neared. the egg-shaped asterid grew in size frm a little spt n screen t have its full rcky surface cme quickly int fcus befre the signal went dead as the craft hit right n target.
Events happened exactly as engineers had planned, they said, with nthing ging wrng. " As far as we can tell, ur first planetary defense test was a success, said Elena Adams, the missin systems engineer wh added that scientists lked n with bth terrr and jy as the spacecraft neared its final destinatin.
The impact was the peak f NASA’s Duble Asterid Redirectin Test (DART), a 7-year and mre than $300 millin effrt which launched a space vehicle in Nvember f 2021 t perfrm humanity’s first ever test f planetary defense technlgy. It will be abut tw mnths, scientists said, befre they will be able t determine if the impact was enugh t drive the asterid slightly ff curse, prbably shrtening its riginal rbit.
NASA plans t launch an asterid-hunting space telescpe named NEO Surveyr in 2026. We’ve tracked lts f space rcks, especially the larger nes that culd cause extinctin-level events. Thankfully, nne currently threaten Earth, But many asterids the size f Dimrphus haven’t yet been discvered, and thse culd ptentially take ut a city if they came crashing dwn, explains Lindley Jhnsn, NASA’s Planetary Defense Officer.
32. Hw did scientists knw the craft hit the asterid successfully?
A. The little spt n the screen suddenly disappeared.
B. They recrded the whle prcess with a telescpe.
C. The signal frm the craft was lst as it hit the target.
D. They mnitred the craft with satellites in space.
33. What is the purpse f launching the spacecraft?
A. T search fr evidence f alien life.
B. T end the asterid’s threat t earth.
C. T save the wrld and deliver a drama.
D. T test technlgy fr defending Earth.
34. What can be inferred abut Dimrphus?
A. It is a dangerus incming space rck.
B. It is an egg-shaped asterid arund Earth.
C. It may rbit the same asterid after the hit.
D. It is expected t blw up after the impact.
35. Which statement will Lindley Jhnsn prbably agree with?
A. Asterids are equally destructive whatever the size.
B. NEO Surveyr is aimed t track smaller asterids.
C. Larger asterids will n lnger threaten Earth.
D. NASA has tackled the threat frm space rcks.
