The wrld’s largest whales are mre than just astnishing creatures. Much like the cean, sil and frests, whales can help save humans frm the increasing climate crisis by string carbn. In a paper published recently, climate researchers suggest that whales are imprtant, but ften verlked, carbn sinks.
The enrmus size f these marine mammals, which can reach 150 tns, means they can stre carbn much mre effectively than smaller animals. And because whales live lnger than mst animals, they culd be “ne f the largest stable living carbn pls” in the cean. Even when whales die, their dead bdies fall dwn t the deepest parts f the sea and settle n the seaflr, trapping the carbn they’ve stred in their bdies. An indirect way whales can be critical carbn sinks is thrugh their waste. Whale pp (粪便) is rich in nutrients which can be taken up by phytplanktn — tiny rganisms that suck up carbn dixide as they grw.
The prcess f carbn sequestratin helps reduce climate impact, because it lcks away carbn that therwise wuld have warmed the planet smewhere else fr hundreds, if nt thusands f years.
Yet whales are threatened, with six ut f 13 great whale species classified as endangered r vulnerable due t threats including industrial whaling, as well as trap in fishing equipment, climate change-caused shifts in prey availability, nise pllutin and mre.
Heidi Pearsn, a researcher at the University f Alaska Sutheast, said the research shws that prtecting whales has a duble benefit — helping t stp the bidiversity crisis as well as human-caused climate change. Prtecting whales is a lw risk and lw regret strategy, because there’s really n dwnside. She said there was n risk t this strategy cmpared t ther untested, expensive slutins t capturing and trapping carbn, such as geengineering.
But there remain big gaps in knwledge t fully determine hw whale carbn shuld be used t slw dwn climate changes. Pearsn hpes the current paper pushes plicymakers t cnsider whales as a significant part f climate change slutin.
8. What des paragraph 2 fcus n abut whales?
A. What their life cycles are like.
B. Why their rles are verlked.
C. Why they are called carbn sinks.
D. Where they are n the fd chain.
9. What des the underlined “it” refer t?
A. The waste f whales.B. The carbn trap f whales.
C. The death f whales. D. The carbn cycle in nature.
10. What des Heidi Pearsn want t stress?
A. Geengineering is cstly and untested.
B. The strategy invlving whales carries n risks.
C. Prtecting whales can be a natural climate slutin.
D. Whales’ survival is the key t stpping bidiversity crisis.
11. What is the purpse f the text?
A. T call fr further research n whales.
B. T call n peple t balance the ecsystem.
C. T present a new reasn fr prtecting whales.
D. T stress the need f addressing climate changes.

Cllege and high-schl teachers are expressing cncern abut ChatGPT, an AI prgram that allws peple with limited writing skills t create high-quality texts. It calls int questin hw and why we teach writing at all. If AI can d a fairly gd jb at mst writing tasks, why spend s much time learning writing in schl?
In fact, learning t write ges beynd just mastering grammar, punctuatin, and sentence structure. It invlves much mre. Fr ne thing, it’s abut learning t turn a lse set f thughts int a clear line f reasning — a skill that is useful fr everyne, nt just thse wh enjy writing r need t d a lt f it fr wrk.
Learning t write als trains yur imaginatin t cnstruct the persn wh will read yur wrds. It puts yu in relatin t smene yu may nt knw, smene wh may even nt exist. When yu learn t write, yu learn t meet their needs in an unfamiliar cntext. Even rdinary assignments teach students t predict what anther persn knws and expects.
Writing is never simply self-expressin. It’s expressin t a specific audience fr a specific purpse. In sme cases, like a lve letter, a writer knws their audience very well. In thers, the audience is every bit a wrk f the imaginatin as a nvel’s characters are. Writers, then, shuld give up trying t address the public at large, but shuld imagine that a friend, thugh nt the clsest friend, is listening t ur talk.
When this act f imaginatin is dne well, a reader can feel deeply understd, as if a stranger has tld them sme previusly unknwn truth abut themselves. That’s hw I felt reading “Difference Maker” — an essay abut parenthd. While ur situatins were unique, naming the prblem prvided a deeper understanding.
It seems unavidable that large-language mdels f AI will allw us t fflad sme f the writing tasks that students learn in schl. But we can’t allw urselves t lse the capacity t empathize (共情) with distant strangers at just the mment when we’re mre able than ever t cmmunicate with them.
12. What is teachers’ cncern abut ChatGPT?
A. It’s a challenge t apply it t teaching.
B. It’s hard t grade a paper written by it.
C. It limits students’ imaginatin and creativity.
D. It questins the necessity f teaching writing.
13. What des the authr think f learning t write?
A. It helps with lgical thinking.
B. It is a basic skill fr everyne.
C. It fcuses n crrect expressin.
D. It is clsely related t scial skills.
14. What makes writing effective accrding t the text?
A. Expressing neself.B. Targeting intended readers.
C. Cnveying imaginative ideas.D. Creating attractive characters.
15. What may be a suitable title fr the text?
A. What AI Can’t Teach the Writing Students
B. ChatGPT Writing VS Traditinal Writing
C. Never Lse the Capacity fr Empathy
D. What Is the Future fr AI Writing

10-year-ld Buddy was just an rdinary by but with an extrardinary heart. He had a lt f friends but never really had a “best friend” until he met Simn — a new by in class wh used a wheelchair.
Nbdy shwed any interest in making friends with Simn except fr Buddy. He quickly bnded with Simn because he believed true friends cme in different sizes and shapes...
Buddy lived with his grandma, Dris, in their small hme in the suburbs. He had lst his parents five years ag in a car crash. Dris raised him, and she was all he had. Buddy prmised himself that he wuld d anything t make his grandma prud and happy, and his prayers (祈祷) were sn answered, but in a way he never imagined.
Buddy had always wanted t help Dris with her rent, s during his free time, he cut grass fr neighbrs, walked dgs, and even helped lder peple carry their grceries hme in exchange fr $1. S far, he had saved $70, but that wasn’t enugh t meet their expenses. Nt ne t be discuraged, Buddy kept ging and the nly ther persn wh cmfrted him was Simn.
The tw bys ften ventured (冒险) int the wds near their schl t watch birds during their spare time. It was their favrite hbby.

Mments later, the bys had a prblem mving frward. One f the wheels sank int a branch beneath the mud. The wheelchair brke dwn, making it difficult t mve ahead. Wrse still, it seemed the rain was arund the crner. The bys culd hear rlling thunder acrss the muntains, which scared them. They wanted t run but culd nt leave ne anther. “Wait! I’ve gt a plan,” shuted Buddy, trying t lean (倾斜) ver and lift his friend up frm the wheelchair. His attempt failed because Simn was t heavy fr him.
