4、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
In the U.S., people eat more protein than they need to, which might not be bad for human health, but does pose a problem for the country's waterways. The nation's wastewater is loaded with the leftovers from protein digestion: nitrogen compounds (氮化合物) that can feed harmful algal blooms (藻华) and pollute the air and drinking water.
Maya Almaraz, a biogeochemist at the University of California, Davis, and her team wanted to see how much of this nitrogen entered into the U.S. wastewater system because of a protein-heavy diet. The researchers found that the majority of nitrogen pollution present in wastewater—some 67 to 100 percent—is a by-product of what people consume.
Once it enters the environment, the nitrogen can have a series of ecological impacts. It helps algae grow much faster than they would normally, which is harmful to humans, other animals and plants. And when the algae eventually die, the problem is not over. Microorganisms (微生物) that feed on dead algae use up oxygen in the water, leading to "dead zones", where many species simply cannot survive, in rivers, lakes and oceans.
Although it is possible to treat algal blooms, many of the current methods are not always effective at getting rid of all of the harmful growth. Some of these methods can even lead to additional pollution. So the best strategy for dealing with the effects of nitrogen pollution is prevention, says Patricia Glibert, an ocean scientist at the University of Maryland. Almaraz and her team state that controlling nitrogen pollution could be approached more quickly with a change in eating habits that could save billions of dollars in the long term.
(1)、Which aspect of Americans' diet does Almaraz's research focus on?A、Its nitrogen compounds. B、Its algal blooms. C、Its amount. D、Its effect.(2)、What causes "dead zones" in the water?A、No oxygen for many species. B、Death of lots of healthy algae. C、Microorganisms' over-consumption of nutrients. D、Poisonous chemicals released by harmful algae.(3)、What can we learn about the current treatments for algal blooms?A、They are costly but inefficiently . B、They may cause secondary pollution. C、They may kill all algae. D、They are slow to take effect.(4)、What is the best title for the text?A、Why the Algae Grow So Rapidly? B、Why Eating Too Much Protein Harms the Planet? C、How to Prevent the Air and Water Pollution? D、How to Solve the Problem of Wastewater? -
5、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
"Red tourism", a new form of tourism in which people visit locations and memorials of historical significance to the Communist Party of China, has given a much-needed shot in the arm of the domestic(国内的)tourism industry in summer. And red tourism will be more popular during the National Day Golden Week holiday.
Ticket bookings for red tourism sites in June increased by five times with local and short trips to red tourism sites being the choice of about 88 percent of such tourists. And the search for the term "red tourism" on Mafengwo, a Chinese travel service and social-networking platform, increased by 300 percent during the summer holidays.
Red tourism is not only about the joy of visiting a new place and taking in the wonderful sights. It is also about gaining knowledge about history and being inspired by the stories of the people who gave their lives to the founding of the People's Republic in 1949 and worked for the wellbeing of the Chinese people. By rediscovering history and passing on the stories of the Chinese revolution and its heroes to the next generations, people can uplift their spirit.
Red tourism can also be used as an opportunity to develop rural(农村的)areas because most of the revolutionary bases and red tourism sites are in the countryside. It can raise the incomes of local people, Since red tourism creates jobs and helps increase farmers' incomes, it can develop local development.
Data show that in the first half of 2022, more than 30 percent of all tourists visited red tourism sites in rural areas, which was 10 percent more than the last year. Yet red tourism faces certain developmental problems, mainly because some local government officials have failed to make the best use of red tourism resources for local development.
(1)、What can we know about red tourism?A、It is a new form of travel in which people visit red places. B、It was not popular during the last National Day Golden Week holiday C、It has brought life to tourism. D、It is about visiting colorful scenery especially with red color.(2)、Why does the author list the numbers in paragraph 2?A、To prove his idea. B、To describe a booming scene. C、To illustrate the story. D、To introduce a platform.(3)、What is the benefit of red tourism for rural areas?A、It can help improve farming facilities and efficiency. B、It can offer job opportunities to both farmers and visitors. C、Local people can develop local development. D、Local income can literally decrease.(4)、What will be mentioned in the following paragraphs?A、More and more people will choose red tourism. B、Many travel companies will benefit from red tourism. C、More red tourism sites should be open to the public. D、Some measures should be taken to solve problems. -

Last July, my 12-year-old car died on California's Santa Ana Freeway. It was an hour before sunset, and I was 25 miles from home. I couldn't reach anyone to pick me up, so I decided to take a bus. Not knowing the routes, I figured I'd just head east. A bus pulled up, and I asked the driver how far she was going. "Four more lights," she said. There was another bus I could take from there before it was out of service at 8:30pm. This clearly was going to be a long night. She dropped me off at the end of her route and told me which bus to look for.
After waiting 30 minutes, I began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home. Then a bus pulled up. There was no lighted number above its windshield (挡风玻璃). It was out of service. But the door opened, and I was surprised to find that it was the same driver. " I just can't leave you here," she said. " This isn't the nicest place. I'll give you a ride home." "You'll drive me in the bus?" I asked, perplexed(困惑的). "No, I'll take you in my car," she said. " It's a long way," I protested. "Come on," she said. "I have nothing else to do." As we drove from the station in her car, she began telling me a story. A few days earlier, her brother had run out of gas. A good Samaritan picked him up, took him to a service station and then back to his car.
"I'm just passing the favor along," she said. When I offered her money as a thank-you, she wouldn't hear of it. "That wouldn't make it a favor," she said. "Just do something nice for somebody. Pass it along."
(1)、Judging from its context, the time when the writer saw the second bus she waited forwas ____.
A、an hour before sunset B、early at dawn C、in the evening D、late at night(2)、Which of the following statement is true?A、No bus would possibly come at the time when the writer decided to take a taxi home. B、The bus driver decided to drive the writer home in the bus though it was out of service. C、The writer didn't believe what the bus driver said and became a bit worried. D、The bus driver felt sorry because she didn't tell the truth, so she came back.(3)、The bus driver drove the writer home later because ____.A、she happened to go in the same direction B、she wanted to do something good for other people C、she wanted to pass the favor along as her brother D、she wanted to earn more money for her family(4)、The writer wrote this story to ____.A、tell something strange that happened to him B、warn people not to drive old car on California's Santa Ana Freeway C、pass a good virtue along from one to another D、tell passengers that bus drivers were reliable in most cases -

As the world struggles to deal with the climate crisis, some companies are working to remove polluting carbon dioxide from the air. But two US companies have recently made important progress.
Scientists say large amounts of CO2 must be removed from the CO2 atmosphere and stored. But there's so much CO2 in the atmosphere that just planting trees and protecting forests won't solve the problem. And, when plants and trees die, the carbon they've stored gets released again.
That means humans need to come up with ways of removing carbon from the air and storing it. This is called Direct Air Capture (DAC). The science of removing carbon from the air is challenging, and it's still pretty new. So one puzzle for these companies is how to remove carbon without creating more pollution.
A company called Heirloom has just opened the first DAC plant in the United States. The company heats up the limestone to separate out the CO2, which is concrete. The process is extremely expensive. That's a tiny amount compared to how much carbon needs to be removed from the atmosphere, but the company says it hopes to remove a billion tons per year by 2035.
Some people worry that it will take too long for DAC technology to become powerful enough to make a difference. Others worry that focusing on removing carbon could take attention away from more important climate actions, like switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy. But experts say the decision isn't to do one or the other. The world needs to end fossil fuel use and pull carbon out of the air.
A. Plants and trees do this naturally.
B. That's a huge and challenging goal.
C. Not everyone is excited about carbon removal.
D. Graphyte is another US company working on DAC.
E. The new plant can remove 1,000 tons of CO2 a year.
F. Most DAC processes require a large amount of energy.
G. As a matter of fact, CO2 is just a small part of the gases that make up air. -

An increase in a country's working-age population is a blessing. Lots of workers support relatively few children and retired people. So long as the labor market can absorb an increasing number of job-seekers, output per head will rise. That can boost savings and investment, leading to higher economic growth, more productivity gains and developmental speed-up. Yet for countries that fail to seize this opportunity, the results can be tough.
Consider Thailand. It is rapidly aging. In 2021, the share of Thais aged 65 or over hit 14%, a figure that is often used to define an aged society Soon Thailand will, like Japan, South Korea and most Western countries, see a decreasing supply of workers and flagging productivity and growth without extraordinary measures. Yet unlike Japan and the rest Thailand is not a developed country. It has got old before it has got rich.
This is a big barrier to Thailand's future development. To protect its aging citizens, many of whom are poor, Thailand's government will have to spend more on health care and pensions (养老金). This will make it harder to invest in productivity-boosting skills and infrastructure (基础设施). And where Thailand goes, many developing countries will follow.
One conclusion is that countries with a working-age burst need seeking more economic growth out of it. India may never have a better chance than the present. It is widely accepted that privatization and looser foreign-investment rules could raise its growth rate.
Another conclusion is that developing countries need to start planning for old age earlier. They should reform their pension systems, including by raising retirement ages. They should encourage financial markets, providing options for long-term saving and health insurance. And they should try harder to increase female participation in the labor force. Getting more women into jobs would help deal with the fact that women live longer than men, but tend to have less savings and pensions, leaving them in difficult situations in old age.
(1)、What does "opportunity" in the first paragraph refer to?A、Providing more jobs for working-age laborers. B、Reducing support for children and the elderly. C、Encouraging investment for economic growth D、Increasing economic output and labor productivity.(2)、Why is aging considered a barrier to Thailand's future development?A、It causes a shortage of young workers. B、It forces the country to invest in infrastructure. C、It leads to less investment in economic development. D、It increases the burden on the working-age population.(3)、Why is it important for developing countries to involve more women in labor force?A、To extend women's retirement ages. B、To encourage women to be included in health insurance. C、To equalize the number of men and women in the workplace. D、To settle the conflict between women's long lifespan and small pension.(4)、 What is the best title of the passage?A、Aging Problems in Developing Countries B、Planning Ahead for Aging Societies. C、Challenges and Opportunities of Aging Societies. D、The Role of Female Labors in Addressing the Aging Issue -

AI-generated content has recently won big in the literary world. Japanese author Rie Kudan won one of Japan's most famous literary awards, the Akutagawa Prize, with the help of ChatGPT in The Tokyo Tower of Sympathy.
The book is set in future Japan, where AI has become an important part of people's lives. The story centers around an architect who creates a comfortable prison but struggles with a society that she sees as being overly sympathetic to criminals.
Kudan admitted at a news conference that "around 5 percent of the book's text was taken directly from generative AI," reported kyodo News. She added that there is a scene in the book where an AI chatbot answers the main character's questions and she used AI-generated text in the responses given by AI in the story. The word-for-word content generated by AI was applauded by committee members as "practically flawless", said CNN.
This is not the first time that Al-related works have won prizes. In October 2023, The Land of Machine Memorieswas awarded second prize at China's fifth youth popular science and science fiction competition. The fiction was fully created by AI with the prompts (提示) given by Shen Yang, a professor at Tsinghua University. Surprisingly, just one judge among the six of the competition realized that what they were reading was the product of a machine.
So will literature in the future be all about AI? Debates are still ongoing on the matter. Japanese literary critic Akira Okawada told Tyodo News that "it is difficult for AI to create work that addresses ethical themes in depth". However, Chinese writer Luo Ping holds the positive view. "Improvements in technology will not cause human laziness in creating, but rather will only make them involved in more heated competition. With the help of technology, the starting point of human thinking will only grow higher," Luo told Hongxing News.
"I think this is only the beginning for AI in creating literature," Fu Changyi, a member of Jiangsu Popular Science Writers Association, told online news Guancha. "We will wait and see how the future goes," he added.
(1)、What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?A、To lead in the topic of the text. B、To promote an AI-generated book. C、To introduce a famous Japanese writer. D、To show the advancement of ChatGPT.(2)、What do we know about the book The Tokyo Tower of Sympathy?A、It was fully created by AI. B、It is the first AI-created book winning an award. C、Six judges recognized that it was produced by AI. D、The AI-created content in the book was highly spoken of.(3)、What can we infer from Luo Ping's words?A、Al will bring human thinking to a higher level. B、Human authors will be replaced by AI in the future. C、Human will lose the enthusiasm to create because of AI. D、AI doesn't have the capability to deal with ethical issues(4)、What might be the overall tone of the passage towards AI in literature?A、Concerned. B、Negative. C、Optimistic. D、Indifferent. -

In May 2019, a friend who had previously been involved in the Restless Development Sierra Leone Business Brains project encouraged me to apply for the "Saving Lives II" project. Seeing this as an opportunity to move closer to my ambition of working in the medical field in the near future, I eagerly seized the chance. Fortunately, my performance during the interview led to me being awarded the role.
Following the basic training, I was sent to volunteer in Kurubonla, a remote community located in the northern region of Sierra Leone. This assignment presented challenges such as limited road access and communication networks. At first, I felt concerned about being sent there, but with a determined mindset, I set out on the journey, driven by a passion to contribute to my country's development and to push my personal boundaries.
As I got to know the community, I quickly realized that the challenges extended beyond language barriers and cultural differences; there was also a sense of isolation from my peers. However, I refused to allow these challenges to stop me. I threw myself in my duties, working together with local leaders and community members to identify the most pressing needs. Together, we carried out the projects aimed at improving healthcare, education, and infrastructure (基础设施). Additionally, I organized workshops and training courses to share my knowledge and skills with the locals.
Over time, I witnessed the positive impact of our collective efforts. Healthcare facilities improved, the number of students in schools increased, and the overall quality of life in the community showed signs of improvement. These achievements were not solely mine; they were a testament to the cooperative spirit and commitment of the entire community.
