Every trpical (热带的) frest lks different, particularly in the eyes f an eclgist, and Peter Elli s has been lucky enugh t visit a fair few. One in particular hlds a special place in his heart: the rain frests f Gabn. He first visited as a Peace Crps vlunteer. “It cmpletely changed the way I think abut cnservatin and ur relatinship with nature,” he says.
These days, Ellis is the glbal directr f natural climate slutins science at the US-based cnservatin rganizatin—The Nature Cnservancy, where he’s presently investigating the rle that lgging (cutting dwn trees) can play in trpical frests. Lgging fr frest cnservatin may sund cntradictry, and it ften is. But lgging in a trpical frest lks different t the practices we might expect t see. “We might imagine it as a wasteland f stumps(树桩) after a clear cut,” says Ellis. Instead, nly a few trees are actually remved. A sustainably lgged frest is the ne that remains a breathing, rich, trpical rain frest full f trees and wildlife, thus helping keep a large part f the bidiversity while ensuring that mre damaging industries dn’t take its place. It can als prvide a means f basic livelihd fr the lcal peple.
The tw years that Ellis spent in the Gabn rain frests pened his eyes t a different methd f land management. “The lcals tk me ut int the frest and taught me the names, usages and spiritual significance f all the trees and ther plants in the frest,” he says. “Science is abut exact, designed experiments, but it’s als abut asking the right questins. And the peple wh live in thse places and prtect the ecsystem are mre likely t help us learn what the right questins t ask are.”
Trpical frests are essential t ur planet’s future as they supprt high levels f bidiversity and act as crucial carbn sinks (碳储存器). “We need t hnur, and prtect them s that they can d their jb t help save us all” says Ellis.
24. What des Peter Ellis think f his first visit t the rain frests f Gabn?
A. It was prly arranged. B. It made little difference t his life.
C. It brught him far-reaching influence. D. It was physically challenging fr him.
25. What des Peter Ellis realize after his investigatin in trpical rain frests?
A. Lgging balances the rain frests.
B. Lgging means a cmplete clear-ut.
C. Lgging brings huge prfits t the lcals.
D. Lgging encurages the lcal damaging industries.
26. What des Elli s suggest scientists d in prtecting the rain frests?
A. Cnduct many experiments. B. Cnsult experienced lcal peple.
C. Get invlved in designing prcedures. D. Spread mre knwledge abut wildlife.
27. What is the purpse f the last paragraph?
A. T stress the imprtance f bidiversity.
B. T intrduce Ellis’s ideas abut the future.
C. T prvide further infrmatin abut Ellis.

Museums have been arund fr centuries, with the first knwn museum funded in the 3rd century BC. Fr a lng time, they were used t shwcase traditinal artwrks like paintings, sculptures and drawings.
In recent times, hwever, digital art has started t gain ppularity as an art frm. This has raised the questin f whether r nt museums shuld accept digital art int their cllectins.
Digital art can be defined as an artwrk created using digital technlgy and tls like cmputers, tablets and smartphnes. It includes a variety f mediums such as animatin, 3D mdelling, virtual reality and vide game design. Digital art is increasingly being used by artists t create unique pieces that are unlike anything else seen befre.
The debate ver whether museums shuld accept digital art int their cllectins has been nging fr sme time. On ne hand, many believe that digital art is nt “real” art and des nt deserve t be given the same recgnitin as traditinal artwrks. On the ther hand, supprters f digital art hld the view that museums shuld endrse this new frm f expressin and give it the same respect as any ther type f artwrks.
The truth is that many museums have already begun t accept digital art int their cllectins. In fact, sme museums have even devted entire exhibitins t shwcasing digital artwrks frm arund the wrld. This shws that there is a grwing appreciatin fr this type f expressin and that it is slwly becming mre accepted by mainstream audiences.
In general, while there may still be sme debate ver whether r nt digital art deserves t be accepted int museum cllectins, it is clear that many museums are beginning t welcme this new frm f expressin. As mre peple realize the digital art and its ptential as an artistic medium, it will likely becme even mre ppular in years t cme.

Researchers have designed a hand-held device that can btain and change water mlecules (分子) frm the air int drinkable water using nly surrunding sunlight as its energy surce.
This atmspheric water harvester (大气层水分收集器) used an ultra-prus (超多孔的) material, knwn as a metal-rganic framewrk (MOF). It can btain water repeatedly in the httest and driest place in Nrth America, Death Valley Natinal Park. The tests shwed the device culd prvide clean water anywhere, addressing an urgent prblem, as climate change speeds up drught cnditins.
“Almst ne-third f the wrld’s ppulatin lives in water-stressed areas. The UN predicts that almst 5 billin peple n ur planet will experience sme kind f water stress fr a significant part f the year 2050,”said Omar Yaghi. He is the Berkeley chemistry prfessr wh invented MOFs and is leading this study. “It is very imprtant t take advantage f a new surce fr water.”
Other kinds f materials, such as salts r hydrgels (水凝胶), cannt perate in extreme weather cnditins in an energy-efficient manner. The new MOF-pwered harvesters can be a pwerful tl t address water shrtage issues related t anything frm drinking water t agriculture. This technlgy can als be used t btain pure water in areas where water is plentiful but nt clean.
It’s als extremely efficient at harvesting water, releasing 85 t 90 percent f the water it btains. It harvested up t 285 grams f water per kilgram f the metal-rganic framewrk in a day, the amunt f a cup f water. It’s als smaller than the earlier type but it is even mre energy-efficient. It prduced 200 grams f clean water per square meter f water vapr, mre than three times the water prductivity rate f the earlier type.
There will likely be further develpments in efficiency and size fr this device. Yaghi said, “He can see ne day the widespread adptin f husehld-based MOF-pwered water harvesters and cmmunity-scale (社区规模的) water harvesters with the help f data science and machine learning. Thse can be in kitchens r even next t air cnditiners t supply hmes with clean water fr cking and cleaning. And sme cmpanies are already wrking n this.”
32. What can we say abut the new hand-held device?
A. It helps clean the air. B. It can handle water pllutin.
C. It is nly suitable in dry areas. D. It can run withut additinal pwer surces.
33. What des the authr intend t d in the third paragraph?
A. T stress the fact f water shrtage.
B. T shw the necessity f the harvester.
C. T shw the increasing ppulatin in water-stressed areas.
D. T warn against the harm caused by climate change.
34. Hw much water can we get using a harvester with tw kilgrams f the MOF daily?
A. Abut 570 grams. B. Abut 513 grams.
C. Abut 400 grams. D. Abut 360 grams.
35. Which f the fllwing statements abut the MOF-pwered harvester may Yaghi agree with?
A. It will be easier t use in the future. B. It will functin best in the kitchen.
C. It will have huge market ptential. D. It will help prmte technlgies in AI.

Many years passed until ne day, at 25 years ld, I heard that a new pian studi had pened in my neighbrhd. The teacher was recruiting (招收) new students. My childhd dream came flding back.
I remembered I had initially feared becming a teacher after graduatin. Hwever, I vercame thse dubts. I refused t let fear hld me back any lnger, s I walked int the studi.
The teacher, Deb, welcmed me warmly. I was relieved t find we were cntempraries (同时代的人) and expressed my desire t play the wrks f Bach and Beethven if I culd vercme my fear. Deb understd and seemed sincere, s I signed up fr 3 mnths f classes. Still dubtful abut my cmmitment, I bught a small, tabletp electric rgan t practice with at hme. It wasn’t the same as a real pian, but enabled me t learn sme basics.
Week by week, I attended lessns in Deb’s studi. I ften passed yung students n their way ut frm their lessns befre mine. One day, nticing the textbks in my bag, a child stpped me and asked, “Where’s yur by?” After sme hesitatin, I finally answered I was the student. The children then welcmed me and I sat in the studi and listened t a piece a child was wrking n.
Sn, I gained cnfidence and upgraded t a full-size pian at hme fr daily practice. After three rewarding years f lessns with Deb, she annunced it was time fr me and ther students t prepare fr a recital(钢琴演奏会) n stage. I was thrilled at the chance t finally fulfill my childhd dream, yet als anxius at the thught f perfrming befre the audience. But Deb believed in me. “Lk hw far yu’ve cme,” she encuraged. “It’s time t share yur gift with thers.”
