Our recmmended list f envirnmental bks cvers a brad range f tpics. These must-read envirnmental bks are sure t spark the interest f bkwrms.
Silent Spring
Written by Rachel Carsn, Silent Spring highlights the effects f pesticides (杀虫剂) n the envirnment, especially DDT, which was a very ppular insecticide until it was finally banned in 1972. The bk eventually led t a change in the United States' pesticide plicy and cntributed t the creatin f the Envirnmental Prtectin Agency.
N One Is T Small t Make a Difference.
This bk cllects 11 speeches made by climate activist Greta Thunberg, highlighting the issue f climate change and its impact n future generatins. Greta Thunberg was 15 when she started the Schl Strike fr Climate, als knwn as Fridays fr Future. She inspired prtests wrldwide.
The Uninhabitable Earth
This bk by David Wallace Wells examines the disasters that have already ccurred and lks ahead t the year 2100 and what climate change will d if we cntinue n ur current path. Its pening line is incredibly telling: “It is wrse, much wrse, than yu think.”
The End f Nature
Published in 1989, the bk describes the relatinship between nature and humans. It expresses the idea that nature was previusly independent f humans but has nw been affected by them in every way. Accrding t authr Bill McKibben, the idea f wilderness is lst, and nature is n lnger cmplete.
21. Which bk brught the envirnment t the gvernment's attentin?

Spiders are master builders, expertly turning silk int cmplex 3D webs. that serve as their hme and hunting grund. T gain a deeper understanding f their wrld, scientists have translated the structure f a spider's web int music, which culd have applicatins ranging frm better 3D printers t crss-species cmmunicatin.
“The spider lives in an envirnment f vibrating (振动的) strings,” says Markus Buehler, the prject's principal investigatr. “They dn't see very well, s they perceive (感知) their surrundings by detecting vibratins, which have different frequencies.” Such vibratins ccur, fr example, when the spider stretches a strand (缕) f silk during cnstructin r when the wind r a trapped fly mves the web.
The researchers scanned a natural spider web t capture 2D crss-sectins and recnstructed its 3D netwrk using a mathematical mdel. They assigned different frequencies f sund t strands f the web, creating musical “ntes” that they cmbined in patterns based n the web's 3D structure t generate music. Then they made a harp-like (像竖琴的) virtual instrument and played the spider web music in several live perfrmances arund the wrld, creating an inspiring harmny f art and science.
T gain insights int hw spiders build webs, the researchers als scanned a web during cnstructin, transfrming each stage int music with different sunds. “The spider's way f ‘printing’ the web is remarkable because n supprt material is used, as is ften needed in current 3D printing methds,” Buehler says. This knwledge culd help develp new 3D printers that wrk like spiders, enabling them t cnstruct cmplex structures withut using additinal materials fr supprt.
The team is als interested in learning hw t cmmunicate with spiders in their wn language. They recrded web vibratins prduced when spiders perfrmed different activities, such as building a web, cmmunicating with ther spiders r sending signals t admirers.
“Nw we're trying t generate signals t basically speak the language f the spider,” Buehler says. “If we expse them t certain patterns f vibratins, can we affect what they d r can we begin t cmmunicate with them? Thse are really thrilling ideas, and I believe they culd be achieved in the near future.”
24. What d we knw abut spiders?
A. They have gd eyesight. B. They adapt t surrundings quickly.
C. They weave a web similar t a musical structure. D. They sense the envirnment thrugh vibratins.
25. What is paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. Steps t create spider web music. B. Ways t recreate a web's 3D netwrk.
C. Challenges f cmbining music with science D. The ptential applicatins f 3D printing methds.
26. What des "This knwledge" in paragraph 4 refer t?
A. 3D printers can cnstruct cmplex structures.
B. Spiders vibratin patterns vary with activities.
C. Spiders build webs withut using additinal materials.
D. The web-building prcess can be translated int music.
27. What is Buehler's attitude twards cmmunicating with spiders?
A. Hpeful. B. Dubtful. C. Uncertain. D. Disapprving.

OpenAI, a leading artificial intelligence cmpany, intrduced a grundbreaking tl named Sra, which stands fr “sky” in Japanese, that creates vides frm text descriptins. Sra can craft clips (电影片段) up t 60 secnds lng, matching a user's detailed instructins abut the cntent and visual style. This tl can als animate still phts (静态图像) r extend existing vides with additinal scenes.
Their recent blg pst explains that they aim t equip AI with the ability t cpy the physical wrld in actin, assisting in tasks requiring interactin with reality. One example vide displayed a 30-year-ld astrnaut with a red knitted helmet in a desert, shwcasing the sftware's ability t prduce mvie-like quality and stick clsely t creative prmpts (提示) .
OpenAI has granted a select grup f researchers and cntent creatrs early access t Sra t perfrm in-depth testing and ensure it meets ethical (道德的) standards. CEO Sam Altman even shared AI-created vide samples in respnse t users' requests after the annuncement.
Until nw, OpenAI has released an image generatr, Dall-E, in 2021, and a cnversatinal AI, ChatGPT, in Nvember 2022, the latter attracting ver 100 millin users in recrd time. While ther AI cmpanies have als invested in vide generatin, their results are shrt and less precise cmpared t user inputs.
Industry giants like Ggle and Meta are develping similar technlgies but have yet t make them available publicly. OpenAI als recently enhanced ChatGPT with imprved memry functins fr mre cherent cnversatins.
While OpenAI hasn't revealed the extent f the data used t imprve Sra r the surces f the vides, they mentined using a mix f publicly accessible cntent and ed material fr training their AI. This apprach raises excitement fr Sra's ptential t change vide prductin and the rle f AI in creative industries. OpenAI emphasizes the imprtance f ethical use and respnsible testing as they explre this cutting-edge technlgy's capabilities.
28. Besides creating vides frm the text, what ther functins des Sra have?
A. Translating vides int different languages. B. Capturing still pictures frm the vide clip.
C. Adding extra scenes t the existing vide. D. Editing a clip t a maximum length f 60s.
29. What des the example given in paragraph 2 try t illustrate?
A. It highlights the ethical standards used t train Sra.
B. It shws Sra's imprved memry fr cnversatins.
C. It emphasizes the ppularity f Sra amng similar tls.
D. It stresses Sra's ability t prduce high-quality vides
30. Hw d the prducts f OpenAI differ frm thse f ther cmpanies?

Duble rainbws are ne thing, but a duble aurra (极光) ? They can happen, thugh sme kinds are rare. One particular red-and-green aurra is especially cnfusing. Nw, images taken by amateur astrnmers may help reveal its secrets.
Citizen scientists living in Canada and Finland used cameras t dcument an unusual cmbinatin f aurras in the night sky. Physicists have studied thse images t learn what may have caused the unusual light shw.
Alan Dyer was utside his hme in Strathmre, Canada, when the dancing Nrthem Lights caught his attentin. He grabbed his camera and started filming. “I knew I had smething interesting,” says Dyer. At first glance, the duble aurra lks like a flating slice f watermeln. The green aurra is well-understd. The fruity lking red strip is mre mysterius. Scientists have knwn abut these red aurras fr decades. But there's n agreement n hw they frm. One idea is that Earth's magnetic field can heat up certain areas f the atmsphere. That heat culd knck particles arund, like in prtn (质子) rain.
Researchers had seen these tw types f aurras ccur tgether befre. But it was always mysterius, says Tshi Nishimura, a space physicist at Bstn University. After lking at satellite bservatins alng with the images taken by Dyer and thers, Nishimura and his team cncluded hw the tw phenmena might be related. The key is the thin rays in the red aurra. They mark the paths f electrns falling thrugh the Earth's magnetic field. That means electrn rain appears t cause the red aurra, just as prtn rain causes the green ne. Bth get pwered by the slar wind. But the electrns carry less energy than the prtns, s they make fr a mre reddish clr.
Electrn rain might nt be the nly way t prduce the stable red aurras, thugh. The results shw that what's ging n is mre cmplicated than researchers had thught. The aurras Dyer saw culd be danger znes fr radi cmmunicatin and GPS systems, says Nishimura.
The citizen scientists wh tk the phts were a critical part f the new findings, Nishimura says.
32. Where is the text prbably taken frm?
A. A news reprt n astrnmic discveries. B. A blg abut sky phenmena.
C. A review f aurra research. D. A brchure f aurra turs.
33. What can be inferred abut red aurras?
A. They are fully understd by scientists. B. They were first sptted by Alan Dyer.
C. They are related t Earth's magnetic field. D. They are generated frm prtn rain.
34. What may affect the clr f the aurra?
A. The path it travels alng. B. The energy particles carry.
C. The wavelength f rays. D. The surce f slar wind.
35. What des the authr indicate by mentining Alan Dyer's example?
A. Phtgraphy drives scientific research. B. The duble aurra is a threat t GPS system.
C. Satellite bservatins lead t aurra discveries. D. Citizen scientists help explain the duble aurra.

“Nw,” she said smiling, “we are ging t discver ur prfessins.” The class seemed t gasp (喘气) in chrus. Our prfessins? We stared at each ther in disbelief. After all, we were nly 13 and 14 years ld.
Because Virginia DeView was demanding, mst f us just verlked her brilliance.
“Yes, yu will all be searching fr yur future prfessins,” she said as thugh this was the best thing she did in her classrm every year. “Yu will have t d a research paper n yur upcming career. Each f yu will have t interview smene in yur field, plus give an ral reprt.”
All f us went hme cnfused. Wh knws what they want t d at 13? I had narrwed it dwn, hwever. I liked art, singing and writing. But I was terrible in art, and when I sang, my sisters screamed: “Oh, please shut up.” The nly thing left was writing.

Our recmmended list f envirnmental bks cvers a brad range f tpics. These must-read envirnmental bks are sure t spark the interest f bkwrms.
Silent Spring
Written by Rachel Carsn, Silent Spring highlights the effects f pesticides (杀虫剂) n the envirnment, especially DDT, which was a very ppular insecticide until it was finally banned in 1972. The bk eventually led t a change in the United States' pesticide plicy and cntributed t the creatin f the Envirnmental Prtectin Agency.
N One Is T Small t Make a Difference.
This bk cllects 11 speeches made by climate activist Greta Thunberg, highlighting the issue f climate change and its impact n future generatins. Greta Thunberg was 15 when she started the Schl Strike fr Climate, als knwn as Fridays fr Future. She inspired prtests wrldwide.
The Uninhabitable Earth
This bk by David Wallace Wells examines the disasters that have already ccurred and lks ahead t the year 2100 and what climate change will d if we cntinue n ur current path. Its pening line is incredibly telling: “It is wrse, much wrse, than yu think.”
The End f Nature
Published in 1989, the bk describes the relatinship between nature and humans. It expresses the idea that nature was previusly independent f humans but has nw been affected by them in every way. Accrding t authr Bill McKibben, the idea f wilderness is lst, and nature is n lnger cmplete.

Spiders are master builders, expertly turning silk int cmplex 3D webs. that serve as their hme and hunting grund. T gain a deeper understanding f their wrld, scientists have translated the structure f a spider's web int music, which culd have applicatins ranging frm better 3D printers t crss-species cmmunicatin.
“The spider lives in an envirnment f vibrating (振动的) strings,” says Markus Buehler, the prject's principal investigatr. “They dn't see very well, s they perceive (感知) their surrundings by detecting vibratins, which have different frequencies.” Such vibratins ccur, fr example, when the spider stretches a strand (缕) f silk during cnstructin r when the wind r a trapped fly mves the web.
The researchers scanned a natural spider web t capture 2D crss-sectins and recnstructed its 3D netwrk using a mathematical mdel. They assigned different frequencies f sund t strands f the web, creating musical “ntes” that they cmbined in patterns based n the web's 3D structure t generate music. Then they made a harp-like (像竖琴的) virtual instrument and played the spider web music in several live perfrmances arund the wrld, creating an inspiring harmny f art and science.
T gain insights int hw spiders build webs, the researchers als scanned a web during cnstructin, transfrming each stage int music with different sunds. “The spider's way f ‘printing’ the web is remarkable because n supprt material is used, as is ften needed in current 3D printing methds,” Buehler says. This knwledge culd help develp new 3D printers that wrk like spiders, enabling them t cnstruct cmplex structures withut using additinal materials fr supprt.
The team is als interested in learning hw t cmmunicate with spiders in their wn language. They recrded web vibratins prduced when spiders perfrmed different activities, such as building a web, cmmunicating with ther spiders r sending signals t admirers.
“Nw we're trying t generate signals t basically speak the language f the spider,” Buehler says. “If we expse them t certain patterns f vibratins, can we affect what they d r can we begin t cmmunicate with them? Thse are really thrilling ideas, and I believe they culd be achieved in the near future.”
24. What d we knw abut spiders?
A. They have gd eyesight. B. They adapt t surrundings quickly.
C. They weave a web similar t a musical structure. D. They sense the envirnment thrugh vibratins.
25. What is paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. Steps t create spider web music. B. Ways t recreate a web's 3D netwrk.
C. Challenges f cmbining music with science D. The ptential applicatins f 3D printing methds.
26. What des "This knwledge" in paragraph 4 refer t?
A. 3D printers can cnstruct cmplex structures.
B. Spiders vibratin patterns vary with activities.
C. Spiders build webs withut using additinal materials.
D. The web-building prcess can be translated int music.
27. What is Buehler's attitude twards cmmunicating with spiders?
A. Hpeful. B. Dubtful. C. Uncertain. D. Disapprving.

OpenAI, a leading artificial intelligence cmpany, intrduced a grundbreaking tl named Sra, which stands fr “sky” in Japanese, that creates vides frm text descriptins. Sra can craft clips (电影片段) up t 60 secnds lng, matching a user's detailed instructins abut the cntent and visual style. This tl can als animate still phts (静态图像) r extend existing vides with additinal scenes.
Their recent blg pst explains that they aim t equip AI with the ability t cpy the physical wrld in actin, assisting in tasks requiring interactin with reality. One example vide displayed a 30-year-ld astrnaut with a red knitted helmet in a desert, shwcasing the sftware's ability t prduce mvie-like quality and stick clsely t creative prmpts (提示) .
OpenAI has granted a select grup f researchers and cntent creatrs early access t Sra t perfrm in-depth testing and ensure it meets ethical (道德的) standards. CEO Sam Altman even shared AI-created vide samples in respnse t users' requests after the annuncement.
Until nw, OpenAI has released an image generatr, Dall-E, in 2021, and a cnversatinal AI, ChatGPT, in Nvember 2022, the latter attracting ver 100 millin users in recrd time. While ther AI cmpanies have als invested in vide generatin, their results are shrt and less precise cmpared t user inputs.
Industry giants like Ggle and Meta are develping similar technlgies but have yet t make them available publicly. OpenAI als recently enhanced ChatGPT with imprved memry functins fr mre cherent cnversatins.
While OpenAI hasn't revealed the extent f the data used t imprve Sra r the surces f the vides, they mentined using a mix f publicly accessible cntent and ed material fr training their AI. This apprach raises excitement fr Sra's ptential t change vide prductin and the rle f AI in creative industries.

Duble rainbws are ne thing, but a duble aurra (极光) ? They can happen, thugh sme kinds are rare. One particular red-and-green aurra is especially cnfusing. Nw, images taken by amateur astrnmers may help reveal its secrets.
Citizen scientists living in Canada and Finland used cameras t dcument an unusual cmbinatin f aurras in the night sky. Physicists have studied thse images t learn what may have caused the unusual light shw.
Alan Dyer was utside his hme in Strathmre, Canada, when the dancing Nrthem Lights caught his attentin. He grabbed his camera and started filming. “I knew I had smething interesting,” says Dyer. At first glance, the duble aurra lks like a flating slice f watermeln. The green aurra is well-understd. The fruity lking red strip is mre mysterius. Scientists have knwn abut these red aurras fr decades. But there's n agreement n hw they frm. One idea is that Earth's magnetic field can heat up certain areas f the atmsphere. That heat culd knck particles arund, like in prtn (质子) rain.
Researchers had seen these tw types f aurras ccur tgether befre. But it was always mysterius, says Tshi Nishimura, a space physicist at Bstn University. After lking at satellite bservatins alng with the images taken by Dyer and thers, Nishimura and his team cncluded hw the tw phenmena might be related. The key is the thin rays in the red aurra. They mark the paths f electrns falling thrugh the Earth's magnetic field. That means electrn rain appears t cause the red aurra, just as prtn rain causes the green ne. Bth get pwered by the slar wind. But the electrns carry less energy than the prtns, s they make fr a mre reddish clr.
Electrn rain might nt be the nly way t prduce the stable red aurras, thugh. The results shw that what's ging n is mre cmplicated than researchers had thught. The aurras Dyer saw culd be danger znes fr radi cmmunicatin and GPS systems, says Nishimura.
The citizen scientists wh tk the phts were a critical part f the new findings, Nishimura says.
32. Where is the text prbably taken frm?
A. A news reprt n astrnmic discveries. B. A blg abut sky phenmena.
C. A review f aurra research. D. A brchure f aurra turs.
33. What can be inferred abut red aurras?
A. They are fully understd by scientists. B. They were first sptted by Alan Dyer.
C. They are related t Earth's magnetic field. D. They are generated frm prtn rain.
34. What may affect the clr f the aurra?
A. The path it travels alng. B. The energy particles carry.
C. The wavelength f rays. D. The surce f slar wind.
35. What des the authr indicate by mentining Alan Dyer's example?
A. Phtgraphy drives scientific research. B. The duble aurra is a threat t GPS system.
C. Satellite bservatins lead t aurra discveries. D. Citizen scientists help explain the duble aurra.

We were sitting in her classrm, giggling, playing tricks n each ther and talking abut the latest infrmatin f the day. Mrs. Virginia DeView cleared her thrat and asked us t be quiet.
“Nw,” she said smiling, “we are ging t discver ur prfessins.” The class seemed t gasp (喘气) in chrus. Our prfessins? We stared at each ther in disbelief. After all, we were nly 13 and 14 years ld.
Because Virginia DeView was demanding, mst f us just verlked her brilliance.
“Yes, yu will all be searching fr yur future prfessins,” she said as thugh this was the best thing she did in her classrm every year. “Yu will have t d a research paper n yur upcming career. Each f yu will have t interview smene in yur field, plus give an ral reprt.”
All f us went hme cnfused. Wh knws what they want t d at 13? I had narrwed it dwn, hwever. I liked art, singing and writing. But I was terrible in art, and when I sang, my sisters screamed: “Oh, please shut up.” The nly thing left was writing.
Every day in her class, Virginia DeView mnitred us. Finally, mst f us had selected smething: I picked print jurnalism (新闻工作) . This meant I had t interview a devted newspaper reprter in persn, and I was terrified. Sensing this, fr the next 90 minutes, Mrs. Virginia DeView filled me with stries abut print jurnalism.
