“Strange and yet very real, thusands and thusands f flip-flps (人字拖) are washed up nt the East African cast, creating an envirnmental disaster. Nt nly d they destry the natural beauty f ur beaches and ceans, but they als blck baby turtles’ way back t the sea and are eaten by fish and ther animals,” states Ocean Sle.

Having been wrking here fr six years, I can nw affrd t send my tw children t schl,” says Eric Mwandla, an artist with Ocean Sle.
Nt nly has the cmpany grwn in size, but s has the reach f its message. Ocean Sle nw has prducts displayed in the gift shps f mre than 40 zs and museums. With each piece sld, the message abut plastic pllutin finds its way t a brader audience. “We are cntinuing t call n rganizatins t ffer envirnmentally friendly suvenirs (纪念品) rather than plastic decratins,” says Ocean Sle. The cmpany is all abut cleaning up pllutin, and that further develps their zer-waste guidelines. The waste frm the sculptures (雕塑) is cllected and used as flring fr kids’ playgrunds, and they even cllect rainwater t use in their prductin.

NASA is planning t send a rbt called MIRA t the Internatinal Space Statin (ISS) by 2024. Its creatrs claim that MIRA is capable f perfrming peratins n its wn and if required, it can als be cntrlled remtely. Such a device culd allw dctrs n Earth t perfrm peratins n astrnauts in space while cntrlling the device remtely.
Hwever, befre perfrming surgical (外科的) peratins n humans, MIRA will have t pass several tests n the ISS invlving nn-living bjects. These tests will help MIRA learn t perfrm surgeries in lw-gravity cnditins, which can be quite a challenge. It is believed that in the future, MIRA culd play an imprtant rle in helping ut astrnauts wh face medical emergencies n the mn and Mars r during lng-distance space travel.
The jurney frm the ISS t Earth can be cmpleted in six hurs. Cnsidering the already available medicines and supplies n the ISS, this may sund like a manageable duratin fr many f the medical emergency cases ccurring there. Hwever, if an astrnaut requires immediate medical supprt n a distant planet like Mars, he r she will prbably die by the time help arrives.
Obviusly, it is nt practical t send all kinds f dctrs with astrnauts. Therefre, the best strategy t deal with medical emergencies is t have a rbt surgen that culd perfrm all kinds f surgeries. MIRA culd achieve this gal as it can be remtely cntrlled in uter space by a surgen n Earth. Fr example, if an astrnaut faces bth nerve (神经) and bne injury n Mars, a neursurgen and an rthpedic surgen n Earth can perfrm surgeries remtely n the injured astrnaut using MIRA.
But the rbt surgen culd be very useful here n Earth as well. After receiving safety apprval frm the Fd and Drug Administratin, in the cming years, we might see dctrs using this rbt t perfrm surgeries remtely n Earth. This remarkable device culd make cmplicated (复杂的) surgeries practical in even remte and rural areas, where there culd be a shrtage f dctrs.
28. What is MIRA designed fr?
A. Carrying ut peratins in an emergency.
B. Dcumenting daily activities dne by astrnauts.
C. Ensuring sufficient medicines and supplies n the ISS.
D. Imprving the functining f space peratin equipment.
29. What shuld be dne befre MIRA’s fficial use?
A. MIRA ding tests n animals in lw-gravity cnditins.
B. Scientists bringing dwn the cst f sending MIRA int space.
C. MIRA helping ut astrnauts with medical needs n the mn.
D. Scientists cnducting MIRA experiments n lifeless bjects n the ISS.
30. Why is develping MIRA necessary?
A. It ffers life supprt when help arrives.
B. It ffers up-t-date medical equipment fr space travel.
C. It prvides life-saving assistance fr astrnauts n remte planets.
D. It increases the manageable duratin fr many medical emergencies.
31. What des the underlined part “this gal”in paragraph 4 refer t?
A. Taking remte cntrl frm Earth.B. Sending all kinds f dctrs int space.
C. Making surgeries practical in rural areas.D. Dealing with different types f medical emergencies.

Rbert Frst was brn in 1874 in San Francisc, Califrnia. He spent his first 40 years in relative bscurity (默默无闻). He lived in England fr a while and published his first wrks there. 36 He wn fur Pulitzer Prizes fr his petry and was cnsidered by many t be the unfficial “pet laureate (桂冠诗人)”f the United States.
37 In fact, experts cnsider it t be the mst widely read and remembered American pem f the last century. Its icnic last lines have been repeated s ften that sme peple think the title f the pem is actually “The Rad Less Traveled.”
Petry experts pint ut that it’s als likely the mst misinterpreted pem f all time. 38 Frst describes ne rad as “just as fair” as the ther and ntes that travelers “Had wrn them really abut the same”.
The title als prvides a clue that everything may nt be as it seems with Frst’s pem. Readers tend t fcus n the rad less traveled, since Frst says it “has made all the difference”. 39 It might mean we shuld put ur fcus n the rad that wasn’t taken.
Frst suppsedly wrte the pem fr British pet Edward Thmas as a gentle jke abut Thmas’ tendency t regret whatever path they tk n their walks thrugh the English cuntryside.
Frst apparently didn’t believe in lamenting (感到遗憾) ver what might have been. Perhaps his message t the reader is simply t fcus n the path yu chse and make the mst f it. 40 If s, that’s gd advice fr any decisin yu might need t make!
A. If yu d that, it will make all the difference.
B. Yet he titles his pem “The Rad Nt Taken”.
C. Sme peple chse t take the rad less traveled.
D. “The Rad Nt Taken” is by far Frst’s mst famus wrk.
E. Then he achieved success as a pet after returning t the United States.
F. The pem can nly be crrectly interpreted based n Frst’s inspiratin.
G. Read the pem carefully and yu’ll find there’s nt much difference between the tw rads.
