Part 1：
NATURE has many ways f reminding us wh is in charge. Her mst deadly weapns — bacteria, viruses, and parasites (寄生虫) —claim millins f lives every year.
But thanks t the hard wrk f great scientists, mankind culd turn nature against itself. And it is fr exactly this srt f wrk that the Ryal Swedish Academy f Sciences awarded the 2015 Nbel Prize in Physilgy r Medicine n Oct 5.
Half f the prize was awarded t the Irish William Campbell and the Japanese Satshi Ōmura fr discvering avermectin (阿维菌素), a drug that kills the parasitic wrms that cause river blindness and lymphatic filariasis (象皮病). Chinese scientist Tu Yuyu shared the ther half f the prize fr develping Artemisinin, a drug that helps kill the parasite that causes malaria.
Ōmura is a micrbilgist by training. He studied Streptmyces bacteria t find cmpunds (化合物) that wrk against harmful micrbes (微生物). Campbell, wrking in the US, tk bacteria fund by Ōmura and tk ut avermectin, which is effective against parasites in farm animals. An imprved type f avermectin was later prduced fr humans, which greatly reduced the cases f river blindness and lymphatic filariasis.
Avermectin cmes frm bacteria, but artemisinin cmes frm plants. Its discvery was the result f Prject 523, a Chinese gvernment prject t find a new malaria drug in the late 1960s.
Malaria is a msquit-brne disease caused by parasites, which attack red bld cells, causing fever, and smetimes, brain damage and death. Tu and her team made 380 herbal extracts frm 2,000 recipes frm traditinal Chinese medical bks. In 1971, after mre than 190 failures, Tu’s team finally fund an extract that was 100 percent effective against malaria parasites. It was called qinghasu, later renamed artemisinin. In 2001, the Wrld Health Organizatin named artemisinin the first chice in the treatment f malaria.
Millins f peple are still trubled by infectins caused by parasites. But the WHO said that by 2013, malaria deaths had fallen by 47 percent cmpared with 2000. Similarly, river blindness used t be ne f the leading causes f preventable blindness. These days, dctrs are talking abut chances f wiping the disease ff Earth. All f these achievements wuld nt be pssible at all withut the drugs that Campbell, Ōmura and Tu helped t discver.

Part 2：
Yu may have already seen rbt waiters in restaurants: waist-high machines that can greet guests, lead them t their tables, deliver fd and drinks and carry dirty dishes t the kitchen. But are they the future?
Many think they are the slutin t the industry’s labr shrtages. Sales f them have been grwing rapidly in recent years, with tens f thusands nw wrking in dining rms. But thers say they have a lng way t g befre they can replace humans. They can’t take rders, and many restaurants have steps and ther physical challenges they can’t adapt t.
Still, the rbts are increasing. Redwd City, Califmia-based Bear Rbtics, intrduced its service rbt in 2021 and expects t have 10,000 used by the end f this year wrldwide. The lack f labr sped up the adptin f rbts glbally. In the US, the restaurant industry emplyed 15 millin peple in 2022, but that was still 400,000 fewer than befre the pandemic. In a recent survey, 62% f restaurant peratrs tld the Natinal Restaurant Assciatin they dn’t have enugh emplyees t meet custmer demand.
Public recgnitin f rbt servers is already high in Asia. The US was slwer t adpt rbts, but sme chains are nw testing them. But nt all chains have had success with rbts. Chili’s intrduced a rbt server named Rita in 2020 and expanded the test t 61 US restaurants befre abruptly stpping it last August. The chain fund that Rita mved t slwly and gt in the way f human servers. And 58% f guests surveyed said Rita didn’t imprve their verall experience.
It’s expected that abut 30% f restaurants will cntinue t have human servers and be cnsidered mre luxurius (豪华的), while the rest will rely n rbts in the kitchen and in dining rms. Ecnmics are n the side f rbts; the cst f human labr will cntinue t rise, but technlgy csts will fall. But that’s nt a future everyne wants t see. “Humans dn’t g t a full-service restaurant t be served by technlgy,” said Saru Jayaraman, president f One Fair Wage. “They g fr the experience f themselves and the peple they care abut being served by a human.”
4．What can we learn abut the numbers in paragraph 3?

B．Rbts play a mre imprtant rle in restaurants.
C．Human beings are mre likely t be ut f wrk.
D．Restaurant wners prefer rbt waiters t human waiters.
5．Why was Rita abandned by restaurants?
A．It culd nt finish the task crrectly.B．It disturbed the dinners in the restaurant.
C．It added t the expense f the restaurant.D．It caused truble fr its human clleagues.
6．What might Saru Jayaraman prbably agree with?
A．Rbt waiters have becme a scenic spt in the restaurants.
B．Human waiters can’t be actually replaced by rbt waiters.
C．The duties f rbt and human waiters shuld be made clear.
D．Restaurants shuld balance the cst f rbt and human labr.
7．What can be a suitable title fr the text?

C．Where can yu find rbt waiters?D．D rbts bring cnvenience t us?
Part 3：
Diners in Japan may sn be able t cut their salt intake withut needing t sacrifice(牺牲)flavr. Researchers recently annunced they develped electric chpsticks that increase saltiness f fds.
C-develped by Meiji University prfessr Hmei Miyashita and drink prducer Kirin Hldings Cmpany, Limited, the chpsticks imprve tastes using electrical stimulatin and a mini-cmputer attached t a wrist.“The device uses a weak electrical current t send sdium ins (钠离子) frm fd, thrugh the chpsticks, t the muth where they create a sense f saltiness,” said Miyashita.“As a result, the salty taste increases by 1.5 times.”
The taste-imprving chpsticks may have particular relevance t the traditinal diet in Japan, which tends t be high in salt. The average Japanese adult eats abut 10 grams f salt each day. That is almst tw times the amunt suggested by the Wrld Health Organizatin. High sdium intake is linked t increased cases f high bld pressure, strkes and ther cnditins. “T prevent these diseases, we need t reduce the amunt f salt we take,” said Kirin researcher Ai Sat. Sat added that if Japanese peple try t reduce salt intake in the usual ways, they will need t cut many f their favrite fds frm their diet. Otherwise, they wuld have t eat flavrless fd.
“I want t verturn the idea that lw salt means n flavr,” Miyashita declared.“The chpsticks make it pssible t keep enjying the fds we lve, and in a healthier way.”He was cnfident that the chpsticks can help peple make better decisins abut their diet and hped t have them ready t sell as early as next year.
Miyashita and his research team have explred different ways that technlgy can interact with human senses. He has als develped a televisin screen that a persn can lick (舔) t taste different fd flavrs. Meanwhile, research is als underway t develp ther eating tls with special functins like electric spns and frks using technlgy.
8．Wh wuld prbably be interested in the electric chpsticks?
A．Thse sticking t a balanced diet.
B．Thse having eating disrders.
C．Thse preferring hmemade fd.
D．Thse wanting t take in less salt.
9．Why is traditinal Japanese diet mentined?
A．T intrduce what Japanese diet is like.
B．T stress hw imprtant chpsticks are fr it.
C．T shw what influence it has n the Japanese.
D．T explain why electric chpsticks are invented.
10．What des Miyashita expect f the electric chpsticks?
A．They’ll reach cnsumers in the near future.
B．They’ll help change peple’s eating habits.
C．They’ll be develped int varius versins.
D．They’ll inspire a whle new line f research.
11．What is the text mainly abut?
A．Benefits f lw-sdium diets.
