When he saw the five-figure number,he was confused,Soon,it all made sense,Michael's credit card number started with four and one.Clearly,he accidentally began typing his credit card information while his cursor(光标)was still in the donation box.

C Have you ever had the feeling that you can't think when there is too much noise around?Did you ever think a fish could experience that feeling too?A recent paper published in Science titled "Soundscape of the Anthropocene Oceans",combined over 10,000 scientific papers,confirms that undersea life knows that exact same feeling,more often than not.Anthropogcnic ocean noise,also known as underwater noise pollution,has created a dramatic impact on marine life due to"human-caused"activity within and neighboring our oceans. 高一葵语统练二第2页 Disney Pixar's animated film Finding Nemo educated us about the ocean,and specifically within the ordinary world of a clown fish.A fact many may not know.is that.clowu fish spend the first part of their lives as larvae ()drifting with the current of the ocean until they become strong enough to swim against it.Once they are powerful and strong,they head home in sheltered coral reefs.There is only one drawback-the fish can't physically see the reef,but they can hear it.The only problem is,if they can't hear it,will they ever make it home? Our anthropogenic ocean noise,such as-cargo ships,ship and boat propellers ()surfing,deep sea mining,etc.are causing destruction of marine life.According to Time,sound is the sensory signal that travels the farthest through the ocean.Anthropogenic noise drowns out the tiatural soundscapes,putting marinc life under immense stress.Altogether,this stress then'affects their general health;disrupts,their behavior,physiology,reproduction and,in extreme cases,causes'death.Marine life.can adapt to noise pollution,however,only if they can'escape it.This only renders further complexities of forcing species to leave their traditional breeding regions or their families. Of all the challenges ocean creatures are battling,luckily sound pollution is the easiest compromise (humans can make.Once the noise has decreased,marine life will be able to better manage everything else it is up against. 28.What do we know about"Soundscape of the Anthropocene Oceans"? A.It analyses how sound travels in the ocean. B.It discusses different types of occan pollution. C.It explores the effects of noise pollution on sea life. D.It studies how sea animals communicate with each other. 29.The author mentions clown fisb in Paragraph 2 to A.present their life cycles B.show how terrible their living conditions are C.introduce a famous animation about the ocean world D.stress the importance of natural soundscapes to sea life 30.What docs the underlined word "renders"probably mcan in Paragraph 3? A.Reduces. B.Causes. C.Solves! D.Prevents. 31.The author writes the article to A.publicize the knowledge of soundscape B.regulate human's activities on the ocean C.emphasize the importance of animal protcction D.draw people's attention to anthropogenic ocean noise 0 Though shark attacks can be a rare occurrence,there have been 46 publicly reported shark attacks so far this year.Then why do sharks attack humans?Here's everything we know. Shark attacks are often put into different categories:provoked (and unprovoked. "Unprovoked bites"are defined as incidents in which a bite on a human occurs in the shark's natural habitat 高一英语统练二第3页 with no human provocution of the shark."Provoked bites"occur when a humun sturts interacting with a shark in some wny.For instancc,when divers are bitten after attacking or trying to touch sharks. Roger Tabor,a biologist and naturalist,says,"There is no evidencc that shurks spccificully hunt people."Nowudays,a thcory called the Mistaken Identity Hypothosis()explaing shark bites on surfers, swimmcrs and divers as "mistakes,"which typically means that sharks might confuse humans with their typical prey()Mr.Tabor says surfing has previously been linked to shark attacks because the sudden movement,similar to an nnimal suddenly moving back,or bright parts of wetsuits reflecting looking like a fish,can cause a responsc in the visually oriented(great white", In a paper published by Eric Clua,a marine biologist and Carl Meyer,a biologist at the University of Hawaii,in the Brill Joumal,they look at the MIH theory.The paper says that although MIFI may now be "widcly"accepted by the gencral public and the scientific community,therc are still some unknown gaps. This hypothesis ignorcs the important role of other senses(e.g.hcaring)in discriminating potential prey," the paper says.The authors also note that shark bites which occur in clear water cannot always be explained by MIH.It adds,"To put it simply,sharks don't make 'mistakes'but instead continually cxplorc their environments and routinely investigatc novel objects as potential prcy by biting them." Climate change may be another reason for seeing an incrcase in shark attacks.Mr.Tabor says,"Global warming and habitat damage can move marine species including seals and sharks.That can bring larger sharks more into contact with beaches,with people." 32.What can we learn about sharks from paragraph 2? A.They tend to bite bumans,purposcly. B.They are frequcntly targeted at divers. C.They are potentially risky to interact with D.They don't attack people unless disturbed. 33.Why do sharks attack people according to Mr.Tabor? A.Bright wetsuits damage sharks'vision.

A.Supportive. B.Doubtful. C.Carefree. D.Tolerant, 35.What do the authors think aecounts for sharks'bitcs on peoplc? A.Desire to seek new food sources. B.Lack of underwater creatures as prey.

This is hard both technjcally and politically,though.38 And the world hasn't yet reached a consensus (on why we should clear the space junk and there are no real rules that govern how we work out there. First why should we keep things clean in orbit?We use satellites to check the weather,find our way around,and for financial purposes.Space data gives us not just beautiful pictures of the earth,but also information about.climate change,natural disasters and other things that can help humans with earthbound challenges.39 Then how can we humans think as one big community?Governments should make powerful regulations. Companies ought to engage in shared practices and scicntists are expectcd to think up practical methods. 40 Only in this way can we keep thosc orbital highways open for the next generation and beyond before they are deadly blocked by space junk. A.They provide services closely related to our life. B.So space sustainability has become a big concern. C.Space is gctting incrcasingly crowded and dangerous. D.Operating a robot from hundreds of miles away is tough E.Anyway,we should quicken the pace of clearing up. F.So we depend largely on space and it needs to be tidied up.
