When Jhn Tdd was a child, he lved t explre the wds arund his huse, bserving hw nature slved prblems. A dirty stream, fr example, ften became clear after flwing thrugh plants and alng rcks where tiny creatures lived. When he gt lder, Jhn started t wnder if this prcess culd be used t clean up the messes peple were making.
After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in cllege, Jhn went back t bserving nature and asking questins. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria (细菌)? Which kinds f fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals? With the right cmbinatin f animals and plants, he figured, maybe he culd clean up waste the way nature did. He decided t build what he wuld later call an ec-machine.
The task Jhn set fr himself was t remve harmful substances frm sme sludge (污泥). First, he cnstructed a series f clear fiberglass tanks cnnected t each ther. Then he went arund t lcal pnds and streams and brught back sme plants and animals. He placed them in the tanks and waited. Little by little, these different kinds f life gt used t ne anther and frmed their wn ecsystem. After a few weeks, Jhn added the sludge.
He was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the ec-machine tk the sludge as fd and began t eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.
Over the years, Jhn has taken n many big jbs. He develped a greenhuse — like facility that treated sewage (污水) frm 1,600 hmes in Suth Burlingtn. He als designed an ec-machine t clean canal water in Fuzhu, a city in sutheast China.
“Eclgical design” is the name Jhn gives t what he des. “Life n Earth is kind f a bx f spare parts fr the inventr,” he says. “Yu put rganisms in new relatinships and bserve what’s happening. Then yu let these new systems develp their wn ways t self-repair.”
4. What can we learn abut Jhn frm the first tw paragraphs?
A. He was fnd f traveling.B. He enjyed being alne.
C. He had an inquiring mind.D. He lnged t be a dctr.
5. Why did Jhn put the sludge int the tanks?

C. T prtect the plants.D. T test the ec-machine.
6. What is the authr’s purpse in mentining Fuzhu?

C. T cmpare Jhn’s different jbs.D. T erase dubts abut Jhn’s inventin.

In shallw castal waters f the Indian cean, Dugng, a kind f sea cw, is in truble. Envirnmental prblems pse such a majr threat t its survival that the Internatinal Unin fr Cnservatin f Nature (IUCN) upgraded the species’ extinctin risk status(地位)t vulnerable (脆弱).
Much wrse, Dugngs are at risk f lsing the prtectin f the Trres Strait Islanders, wh have lked after them histrically, hunting them fr fd sustainably and mnitring their numbers. These native peple keep their bidiversity, and have deep knwledge abut their envirnment. But these peple are als threatened, in part because rising sea levels are making it difficult fr them t live there.
This situatin isn’t unique t Dugngs. A glbal analysis f 385 culturally imprtant plant and animal species fund 68 percent were bth bilgically vulnerable and at risk f lsing their cultural prtectin.
The findings clearly illustrate that bilgy shuldn’t be the primary factr in shaping cnservatin plicy,says anthrplgist Victria Reyes-García.When a culture declines,the species that are imprtant t that culture are als threatened.“Lts f cnservatinists think we need t separate peple frm nature,” says Reyes-García. “But that strategy misses the caring relatinship many cultural grups have with nature.”
One way t help shift cnservatin effrts is t give species a “bi-cultural status,”which wuld prvide a fuller picture f their vulnerability. In the study, the team used a new way t determine a species’ risk f disappearing: the mre a cultural grup’s language use declines, the mre that culture is threatened.The mre a culture is threatened, the mre culturally vulnerable its imprtant species are. Researchers then cmbined a species’ cultural and bilgical vulnerability t arrive at its bi-cultural status. In the Dugng’s case, its bi-cultural status is endangered, meaning it is mre at risk than its IUCN categrizatin suggests.
This new apprach t cnservatin invlves peple that have histrically cared fr them. It can highlight when cmmunities need supprt t cntinue their care. Scientists hpe it will bring mre effrts that recgnize lcal cmmunities’ rights and encurage their participatin-taking advantage f humans’ cnnectin with nature instead f creating mre separatin.
8. What is the relatinship between the native peple and Dugngs?
A. The native peple help cnserve Dugngs.
B. The native peple train Dugngs t survive.
C. Dugngs ruin the native peple’s envirnment.
D Dugngs frce the native peple t leave hme.
9. Which statement will Reyes-García prbably agree with?
A. The prtectin plicy is used incrrectly.
B. Culture is cnnected t species’ existence.
C. Many grups take gd care f each ther.
D. Cnservatinists prefer nature ver peple.
10. Hw is the study methd different frm previus nes?
A. It invlves mre preservatin effrts.
B. It relies n the IUCN’s classificatin.
C. It highlights the effect f human languages.
D It assesses the bilgical influence f a species.
11. What is the authr’s attitude twards the latest apprach?
A. Cnservative.
B. Favurable.
C. Critical.
D. Ambiguus.

Adapting t technlgical advances is a defining part f the 21st-century life. Just tw mnths after being launched in Nvember 2022, OpenAI’s ChatGPT has already reached an audience f ver 100 millin peple. While ChatGPT threatens t change writing and writing-related wrk, the Mesptamians, wh lived 4,000 years ag in a gegraphical area centered in mdern-day Iraq, went thrugh this kind f far-reaching change befre us.
Ancient Mesptamia was hme t many f civilizatin’s early develpments. Its peple were wrld leaders in adapting t technlgical and cultural changes. They invented the wheel and agriculture, and pineered advances in mathematics and urbanizatin. These breakthrughs are reflected in cuneifrm(楔形文字)literature,ne f the ldest knwn frms f writing.
In its literature, Mesptamians dn’t present cultural and technlgical advances as cnsistently beneficial.They ften represent new technlgies being cntrlled in the service f human cnflict and mstly serving the interests f thse with high scial psitins. In sme ways,the representatin f new technlgies in its literature eches(映现)cntemprary cncerns abut AI: fears f increasing scial inequalities and its ptential use in infrmatin war.
In recent years,AI—the newest frm f writing—has been used t decipher(破译)the ldest: cuneifrm literature.In brader fields,the bundaries f hw AI may be used haven’t been clearly explained.In January,fr example, a tp internatinal AI cnference banned the use f AI tls fr writing scientific papers.
Humans have been struggling t invent, use and adapt t technlgy since ur earliest civilizatins. But the technlgy and resulting knwledge are nt always evenly distributed. Knwing hw we adapted t changing technlgy in the past helps us mre fully understand the human cnditin and may even help us prepare fr the future.
12. What des paragraph 2 mainly talk abut cncerning Mesptamians?
A. Their adaptatin t threats.
B. Their influences n writing.
C. Their cntributin t literature.
D. Their achievements in civilizatin.
13. What can be inferred abut technlgical advances frm paragraph 3?
A. They prevent human cnflict.
B. They bring abut hidden dangers.
C. They take away peple’s cncerns.
D. They lwer peple’s scial status.
14. What is the current situatin f AI accrding t paragraph 4?
A. Its use in literature is ppular.
B. It is nt allwed t finish papers.
C. Its range f applicatin is undefined.
D. It is nt accepted in brader fields.
15. Which f the fllwing is a suitable title fr the text?
A. Hw Peple Can Use the Latest Technlgy
B. Hw ChatGPT Will Threaten Writing and Wrk
C. What AI Will D by Learning Cuneifrm Literature
D. What Histry Can Teach Us Abut New Tech’s Impact

When I was in middle schl, my scial studies teacher asked me t enter a writing cntest. I said n withut thinking. I did nt lve writing. My family came frm Brazil, s English was nly my secnd language. Writing was s difficult and painful fr me that my teacher had allwed me t present my paper n the sinking f the Titanic by acting ut a play, where I played all the parts. N ne laughed harder than he did.
S, why did he suddenly frce me t d smething at which I was sure t fail? His reply: “Because I lve yur stries. If yu’re willing t apply yurself, I think yu have a gd sht at this.” Encuraged by his wrds, I agreed t give it a try.
I chse Paul Revere’s hrse as my subject. Paul Revere was a silversmith (银匠) in Bstn wh rde a hrse at night n April 18, 1775 t Lexingtn t warn peple that British sldiers were cming. My stry wuld cme straight frm the hrse’s muth. Nt a brilliant idea, but funny; and unlikely t be anyne else’s chice.
What did the hrse think, as he sped thrugh the night? Did he get tired? Have dubts? Did he want t quit? I sympathized immediately. I gt tired. I had dubts. I wanted t quit. But, like Revere’s hrse, I kept ging. I wrked hard. I checked my spelling. I asked my lder sister t crrect my grammar. I checked ut a half dzen bks n Paul Revere frm the library. I even read a few f them.
When I handed in the essay t my teacher, he read it, laughed ut lud, and said, “Great. Nw, write it again.” I wrte it again, and again and again. When I finally finished it, the thught f winning had given way t the enjyment f writing. If I didn’t win, I wuldn’t care.
