The distinctive Northerm Bald Ibis (秃头朱鹮) hunted nearly to extinction by the 17th century, was brought back by raising and rewilding efforts over the last two decades. But the birds don’t know which direction to fly to migrate (迁徙) without wild-born elders leading the way. So a team of scientists and conservationists took on the role of parents and flight instructors.
Biologist Johannes Fritz and the Waldrapp team, an Austrian conservation group, have been teaching the birds their migration paths. Since 2002, they’ve increased the Central European population from zero to nearly 300 birds, changing the species’ status from “critically endangered” to “endangered.”
To prepare them for travel, the chicks are taken away, when they are just a few days old, to their human parents in the hope of “imprinting” — when the birds will bond with those humans to finally trust them along the migration route. Then the human parents sit on the back of a super light aircraft, waving and shouting words of support as it flies through the air.
It’s an odd scene: The aircraft looks like a flying car with a huge fan on the back and a yellow parachute keeping it in the air. Still, three dozen birds follow it sailing over the Alps.
Fritz, inspired by “Father Goose” Bill Lishman, who taught geese to fly alongside his ultra-light plane, leads the birds on their migration.
The first successful independent migration was in 2011, and more birds have followed the 550-kilometer route each year. The team hopes to have over 350 birds by 2028, making the population self-sustaining. However, climate change has affected their migration. In response, the team piloted a new route to southern Spain in 2023, which is longer and more challenging.
The entire journey to Spain could take up to 50 days and end in early October. But Fritz says, “The effort is bigger than just the Northern Bald Ibises. It’s about paving the way for other threatened migratory species to fly.”
1. What is the major challenge faced by the Northern Bald Ibises during their migration?
A. Long distances. B. Absence of guidance.
C. Human hunting. D. Limited resting spots.
2. Why are the birds taken away when they are just a few days old?
A. To improve their flying skills. B. To show them the migration route.
C. To build an emotional tie with humans. D. To test their independence from their parents.
3. What do the research team do during their flight?
A. They shout like elder birds. B. They try new migratory routes.
C. They encourage the birds to follow. D. They use an airplane to find the way.
4. What are Fritz’s words in the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The worth of the conservation effort B. The role of technology in the research
C. The need to help other migratory species D. The promising future of wildlife migration
【答案】1. B 2. C 3. C 4. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章围绕北方秃头朱鹮这一濒危物种展开,讲述了它几近灭绝后在科学家和保护主义者团队帮助下恢复种群数量、学习迁徙路线、进行迁徙以及应对气候变化开辟新路线等一系列故事。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“But the birds don’t know which direction to fly to migrate (迁徙)without wild-born elders leading the way. So a team of scientists and conservationists took on the role of parents and flight instructors.(但如果没有野生的成年朱鹮带路,这些鸟根本不知道该朝哪个方向迁徙。于是,一个由科学家和自然资源保护主义者组成的团队承担起了父母和飞行教官的角色。)”可知,北方秃头朱鹮在迁徙过程中面临的主要挑战是没有引导。故选B。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“To prepare them for travel, the chicks are taken away, when they are just a few days old, to their human parents in the hope of “imprinting” — when the birds will bond with those humans to finally trust them along the migration route.(为了让这些雏鸟做好迁徙的准备,在它们出生仅几天的时候就会被带离,送到人类 “父母” 身边,希望能形成 “印随效应”—— 即这些鸟会与人类建立亲密关系,最终在迁徙途中信任他们。)”可知,在雏鸟出生仅几天时就将它们带走,是希望能形成 “印随效应”,让这些鸟与人类建立亲密关系,从而在迁徙途中信任人类。故选C。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Then the human parents sit on the back of a super light aircraft, waving and shouting words of support as it flies through the air.(然后,人类 “父母” 会坐在一架超轻型飞机的后座上,在飞机飞行过程中挥手并大声喊着鼓励的话语。)”可知,人类 “父母” 会坐在超轻型飞机的后座上,在飞机飞行过程中挥手并大声喊着鼓励的话语,这么做的目的就是鼓励鸟儿们跟随飞机飞行,从而引导它们认识迁徙路线。故选C。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But Fritz says, “The effort is bigger than just the Northern Bald Ibises. It’s about paving the way for other threatened migratory species to fly.”(但Fritz表示:“我们所做的努力不仅仅关乎北方秃头朱鹮这一物种。它还关乎为其他受到威胁的迁徙物种的飞行之路铺平道路。”)”可知,这句话强调了他们所做的努力不仅仅关乎北方秃头朱鹮这一物种,更为其他受到威胁的迁徙物种的飞行铺平道路,意在表明他们保护北方秃头朱鹮这种行为的意义和价值,也就是凸显整个保护工作的价值所在。故选A。
C
Arm wrestling (扳手腕) was one of my favorite ways of playing with my brothers growing up. It allowed my younger brother and me to test our strength without getting tackled. I also put up a good fight when arm wresting with my older brother and his friends. Their greater strength and experience made the challenge even more interesting. Every match seemed to end in a good laugh, no matter who won.
Now I’m a scientist who studies animals in the wild. I have seen that playing is a great way to socialize; there is so much more to play than fun and games. When humans and other animals play, they are building trust with siblings and friends. They learn how far they can push their partners before anyone becomes angry or physically hurt. That’s called “testing boundaries.”
Older playmates may self-handicap, appearing to be less competent than they really are to help younger players learn skills and explore their abilities. Play offers a safe space, where everyone knows the rules and can experiment with new ways to move, think, and respond to others.
Over the past 30 years, I’ve learned a lot about play by watching young male elephants test their strength through sparring (拳击) games with their friends and superiors. Group sparring matches are common at sunset, when several different elephant families show up at the water hole to drink.
After the initial excitement of the arrival and a good long drink young males slip away from the sides of their watchful moms and aunts to form sparring rings. An elder sister makes sure that the playing doesn’t get out of hand, so she is ever present with a trunk on the back or over the head to calm the enthusiasm. That way, the younger males don’t end up on the bottom of the pile.
Watching young elephants spar reminds me that play should be part of our everyday schedule — the less structure, the better.
5. What does the author want to say by mentioning his/her childhood experience?
A. Winning is not the true meaning of play. B. Children prefer to play traditional games.
C. Play is essential in children’s development. D. Arm wrestling is a safe way to test strength.
6. What benefit of play does the author emphasize?
A. It brings fun. B. It enables boundary breaking.
C. It settles conflicts. D. It develops socializing skills.
7. How do older playmates help the younger to learn during playtime?
A. By pretending to be weaker. B. By warning them of risks.
C. By testing their competence. D. By teaching necessary skills.
8. How would the author describe the elephant’s sparring games?
A. Safe and fair. B. Not strictly controlled.
C. Well-organized. D. Highly competitive.
【答案】5. C 6. D 7. A 8. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了扳手腕这一游戏在作者成长过程中的意义,以及玩耍对于人类和动物社交、学习技能、建立信任等方面的重要性。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Arm wrestling(扳手腕)was one of my favorite ways of playing with my brothers growing up. It allowed my younger brother and me to test our strength without getting tackled. I also put up a good fight when arm wrestling with my older brother and his friends. Their greater strength and experience made the challenge even more interesting. Every match seemed to end in a good laugh, no matter who won. (扳手腕是我小时候与兄弟们玩耍的最爱之一。它让我和弟弟能够测试我们的力量,而又不会真的动手打架。在与哥哥和他的朋友们扳手腕时,我也会全力以赴。他们更强的力量和丰富的经验使得这场较量更加有趣。无论谁赢,每场比赛似乎都以欢声笑语告终。)”以及第二段“Now I’m a scientist who studies animals in the wild. I have seen that playing is a great way to socialize; there is so much more to play than fun and games.(如今,我是一名研究野生动物的科学家。我发现,玩耍是社交的一种绝佳方式;玩耍的意义远不止于娱乐和游戏。)”可知,文章开头作者先讲述了自己小时候与兄弟们扳手腕的经历,描述了当时玩扳手腕不管谁赢大家最后都会开心大笑的场景。接着引出后文自己作为研究野生动物的科学家,阐述关于玩耍在社交等方面的重要意义。由此可推测,作者提及童年经历是为了引出玩耍这个话题,进而说明玩耍对于成长发展有着诸多重要作用,就像小时候玩耍给自己带来的种种积极影响一样,所以其目的是想表明玩耍在儿童发展中是至关重要的。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Now I’m a scientist who studies animals in the wild. I have seen that playing is a great way to socialize; there is so much more to play than fun and games.(如今,我是一名研究野生动物的科学家。我发现,玩耍是社交的一种绝佳方式;玩耍的意义远不止于娱乐和游戏。)”可知,作者认为玩耍是一种很好的社交方式。故选D。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Older playmates may self-handicap, appearing to be less competent than they really are to help younger players learn skills and explore their abilities.(年长的玩伴可能会自我设限,表现得比自己实际的能力要差,以帮助年轻的玩伴学习技能并探索自己的能力。)”可知,年长玩伴是通过假装自己比较弱来帮助年幼者学习的。故选A。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“An elder sister makes sure that the playing doesn’t get out of hand, so she is ever present with a trunk on the back or over the head to calm the enthusiasm. That way, the younger males don’t end up on the bottom of the pile.(一位年长的姐姐会确保玩耍不会失控,所以她总是用鼻子搭在背上或头上,以平息大家的热情。这样,年轻的雄性大象就不会在打斗中处于下风。)”可知,有年长的姐姐在旁边确保玩耍不会失控,用象鼻放在后背或者头上来平息过于高涨的热情,以防年幼的雄性大象陷入危险境地,但并没有严格的、完整细致的管控体系,整体来说大象的拳击游戏不是严格被控制的。故选B。
D
We all know cacti (仙人掌) store water — but to survive, they also adjust their flower positions to gain more sunlight or shade, and so much more. Scientists have been copying the resilient plants’ methods to help engineer our future.
One of the most exciting advancements involves Copiapoa, a genus of cacti with at least 32 species found in the coastal Atacama Desert, the driest nonpolar desert on Earth. These cacti, typically five to six inches wide, can form gray-green bushes that spread out over an area otherwise empty of vegetation.
Documented by many scientists, Copiapoas probably survive by “drinking” the salty fog that sweeps in from the sea every morning, as well as the dew — tiny bits of water — that forms on their spines (尖刺) and skin. This has inspired researcher Tegwen Malik from Swansea University to think about whether the dew-colleting process might be reproduced in metal structures.
Specifically, Malik took a close look at the one-and-a-quarter-inch spines of Copiapoas and found that their surface has a series of tiny channels that broaden at the base. “This creates a surface roughness that enables dewdrops to move along them even against gravity,” she says.
Starting in 2013, she set out to re-create that structure by engineering a flat metal reproduction of the stems and spines of the Copiapoa, which she began testing under a series of different temperatures and humidities. After several years of experiments — testing indoor and outdoor conditions, and with various cooling methods — she finally got it to work. In 2023, Malik published a study showing that the irregular surface was 8 percent more efficient at harvesting dew than a flat sheet used as a baseline.
Malik imagines desert homes with water-collecting features to provide clean water in dry regions. “The easiest way could be to place dew-harvesting surfaces on roofs, but you could also have these structures in tents in the desert,” she says. “We truly have hidden treasures in the Copiapoa, and we are only just learning some of their secrets.”
9. What does the underlined word “resilient” mean in paragraph 1?
A. Highly adaptable to different soils. B. Able to grow quickly and efficiently
C. Resistant to diseases and harmful insects. D. Capable of surviving difficult conditions
10. What drove Tegwen Malik to study Copiapoas?
A. Their metal-like surface. B. Their mechanism to gather water.
C. Their typical appearance D. Their ability to form water drops.
11. What was the main focus of Malik’s experiment with the Copiapoa?
A. Recreating a flat metal copy of it B. Testing if its metal copy would work
C. Seeing how it survives various climates. D. Finding the most efficient cooling method for it.
12. How may Malik’s metal structure be applied?
A. To secure water supply in dry areas. B. To clean salty water in desert homes.
C. To enable desert explorers to travel light. D. To improve ways to discover hidden treasures.
【答案】9. D 10. B 11. B 12. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了科学家受仙人掌启发,研发出了可以在干旱地区收集露水的金属结构,为干燥地区提供清洁水源。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“Weallknow cacti (仙人掌) store water-but to surive, they also adjust their flower positions to gain more sunlight or shade, andso much more. Scientists have been copying the resilient plants’ methods to help engineer our future. (我们都知道仙人掌能储存水分,但为了生存,它们还会调整花朵的位置以获得更多阳光或阴凉,诸如此类还有很多。科学家们一直在模仿这些resilient的植物的方法,以帮助设计我们的未来)”可知,划线词修饰的plants指代Weallknow cacti (仙人掌),这种植物能在干旱的沙漠中生存下来,所以推断resilient的意思是“能在困难环境中生存下来的”。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Documented by many scientists, Copiapoas probably survive by “drinking” the salty fog that sweeps in from the sea every morning, as well as the dew — tiny bits of water — that forms on their spines (尖刺) and skin. This has inspired researcher Tegwen Malik from Swansea University to think about whether the dew-collecting process might be reproduced in metal structures. (许多科学家记录到,Copiapoas可能通过“饮用”每天早晨从海上席卷而来的咸雾,以及在其尖刺和皮肤上形成的露水——微小的水滴——来生存。这启发了来自斯旺西大学的研究者Tegwen Malik思考露水收集过程是否可以在金属结构中重现)”可知,是仙人掌收集水分的机制启发了Tegwen Malik去研究它。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“Starting in 2013, she set out to re-create that structure by engineering a flat metal reproduction of the stems and spines of the Copiapoa, which she began testing under a series of different temperatures and humidities. (从2013年开始,她开始通过制作Copiapoa茎和刺的平面金属复制品来重现这种结构,并在一系列不同的温度和湿度下开始测试)”以及“In 2023, Malik published a study showing that the irregular surface was 8 percent more efficient at harvesting dew than a flat sheet used as a baseline. (2023年,Malik发表了一项研究,研究表明,这种不规则表面收集露水的效率比用作基准的平面高8%)”可知,Malik关于Copiapoa的实验重点是测试它的金属复制品是否有效。故选B。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Malik imagines desert homes with water-collecting features to provide clean water in dry regions. (Malik设想沙漠中的房屋有集水功能,为干旱地区提供清洁水源)”可知,Malik的金属结构可能被应用于确保干旱地区的水供应。故选A。

(在他三十多岁的时候,许多职业篮球运动员通常都会退役,山姆仍然在国家篮球队。)”可知,此处描述山姆在篮球方面的成就,尽管他少年时没有专注,临近青少年才专注篮球,但这并未阻碍他的长远发展。选项D“但从长远来看,这似乎并没有阻碍他的发展。”恰好说明这个转折和强调。故选D。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Top athletes like Jack at the peak of their abilities do spend more time on focused, deliberate practice than their peers (同龄人). But scientists also find that potential champions typically devote less time to deliberate practice in childhood, but more to “sampling” various activities. (像杰克这样处于巅峰状态的顶尖运动员确实比同龄人花更多的时间进行专注、深思熟虑的练习。但科学家们也发现,潜在的冠军通常在童年时期花更少的时间进行刻意练习,而是更多地“抽样”各种活动。)”可知,科学家发现潜在的冠军通常在童年时花较少时间于刻意练习,而是更多地尝试各种活动。选项E“事实上,山姆的成功之路要普遍得多,但却鲜为人知。”符合语境, 指出实际上像山姆这样的成功之路更为普遍,但却较少被提及。故选E。
【17题详解】
根据上文“In a world that demands people to specialize early, we face a challenge to keep the benefits of diverse experiences and delayed concentration. There’s a need for those with Jack’s early focus. (在一个要求人们尽早专注的世界里,我们面临着一个挑战,即保持多样化体验和延迟专注的好处。需要像杰克那样早期关注的人。)” 可知,这里已经提到了对于早期专注的需求,那么接下来应该会讲到世界对多样性和延迟专注的需求。选项C“世界日益复杂,也需要更多像山姆这样的人”符合语境,衔接下文恰当。故选C。

Susan had a secret: she loved robots. She had helped her dad in his workshop and knew a lot about motors, but her friends didn’t know this.
One day, she heard Alex and Jacob talking about their robot, Robbie. They were preparing for a big competition but Robbie wasn’t working properly. Susan was surprised by their courage, as they always seemed unpopular among the boys. She felt bad for them and wanted to help.
On the school bus home, Susan sat behind Alex and Jacob, who were still trying to fix their robot. “This is impossible! The legs move before you press the switch and stop after you press the switch!” Alex said, looking at Robbie’s legs, which were not moving right. “The competition is only eight days away!” Jacob looked sad. He thought they were going to lose.
“Umm, how did you connect the wires from the switch?” Susan asked quietly over their shoulders. Alex turned and gave her a cautious look. Susan smiled and asked, “Did you connect the NO wire or the NC wire to the motor?” The boys stared at her as if she had just landed from Mars.
Susan gently took the robot and pointed out the wire connected to the motor. “Here’s the problem!” She explained that it was the NC wire. It means the circuit (电路) is Normally Closed. She then pulled a loose wire out of the robot and explained that it was the NO wire, which means Normally Open. “If you connect this wire instead, Robbie will walk when you press the switch.” Susan handed the robot back to Alex, who was staring at her with his mouth open.
“Change the wires and see,” she said before getting off the bus. Ten minutes later, her phone rang. It was Jacob: “Your idea worked, and we're wondering if you could come over and help improve our Robbie.” Susan smiled. She knew she had made the right choice.

第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2. 5分,满分37. 5分)
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。
A
B
The distinctive Northerm Bald Ibis (秃头朱鹮), hunted nearly to extinction by the 17th century, was brought back by raising and rewilding efforts over the last two decades. But the birds don’t know which direction to fly to migrate (迁徙) without wild-born elders leading the way. So a team of scientists and conservationists took on the role of parents and flight instructors.
Biologist Johannes Fritz and the Waldrapp team, an Austrian conservation group, have been teaching the birds their migration paths. Since 2002, they’ve increased the Central European population from zero to nearly 300 birds, changing the species’ status from “critically endangered” to “endangered.”
To prepare them for travel, the chicks are taken away, when they are just a few days old, to their human parents in the hope of “imprinting” — when the birds will bond with those humans to finally trust them along the migration route. Then the human parents sit on the back of a super light aircraft, waving and shouting words of support as it flies through the air.
It’s an odd scene: The aircraft looks like a flying car with a huge fan on the back and a yellow parachute keeping it in the air. Still, three dozen birds follow it sailing over the Alps.
Fritz, inspired by “Father Goose” Bill Lishman, who taught geese to fly alongside his ultra-light plane, leads the birds on their migration.
The first successful independent migration was in 2011, and more birds have followed the 550-kilometer route each year. The team hopes to have over 350 birds by 2028, making the population self-sustaining. However, climate change has affected their migration. In response, the team piloted a new route to southern Spain in 2023, which is longer and more challenging.
The entire journey to Spain could take up to 50 days and end in early October. But Fritz says, “The effort is bigger than just the Northern Bald Ibises. It’s about paving the way for other threatened migratory species to fly.”
1. What is the major challenge faced by the Northern Bald Ibises during their migration?
A. Long distances. B. Absence of guidance.
C. Human hunting. D. Limited resting spots.
2. Why are the birds taken away when they are just a few days old?
A. To improve their flying skills. B. To show them the migration route.
C. To build an emotional tie with humans. D. To test their independence from their parents.
3. What do the research team do during their flight?
A. They shout like elder birds. B. They try new migratory routes.
C. They encourage the birds to follow. D. They use an airplane to find the way.
4 What are Fritz’s words in the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The worth of the conservation effort B. The role of technology in the research
C. The need to help other migratory species D. The promising future of wildlife migration
C
Arm wrestling (扳手腕) was one of my favorite ways of playing with my brothers growing up. It allowed my younger brother and me to test our strength without getting tackled. I also put up a good fight when arm wresting with my older brother and his friends. Their greater strength and experience made the challenge even more interesting. Every match seemed to end in a good laugh, no matter who won.
Now I’m a scientist who studies animals in the wild. I have seen that playing is a great way to socialize; there is so much more to play than fun and games. When humans and other animals play, they are building trust with siblings and friends. They learn how far they can push their partners before anyone becomes angry or physically hurt. That’s called “testing boundaries.”
Older playmates may self-handicap, appearing to be less competent than they really are to help younger players learn skills and explore their abilities. Play offers a safe space, where everyone knows the rules and can experiment with new ways to move, think, and respond to others.
Over the past 30 years, I’ve learned a lot about play by watching young male elephants test their strength through sparring (拳击) games with their friends and superiors. Group sparring matches are common at sunset, when several different elephant families show up at the water hole to drink.
After the initial excitement of the arrival and a good long drink, young males slip away from the sides of their watchful moms and aunts to form sparring rings. An elder sister makes sure that the playing doesn’t get out of hand, so she is ever present with a trunk on the back or over the head to calm the enthusiasm. That way, the younger males don’t end up on the bottom of the pile.
Watching young elephants spar reminds me that play should be part of our everyday schedule — the less structure, the better.
5. What does the author want to say by mentioning his/her childhood experience?
A. Winning is not the true meaning of play. B. Children prefer to play traditional games.
C. Play is essential in children’s development. D. Arm wrestling is a safe way to test strength.
6. What benefit of play does the author emphasize?
A. It brings fun. B. It enables boundary breaking.
C. It settles conflicts. D. It develops socializing skills.
7. How do older playmates help the younger to learn during playtime?
A. By pretending to be weaker. B. By warning them of risks.
C. By testing their competence. D. By teaching necessary skills.
8. How would the author describe the elephant’s sparring games?
A. Safe and fair. B. Not strictly controlled.
C. Well-organized. D. Highly competitive.
D
We all know cacti (仙人掌) store water — but to survive, they also adjust their flower positions to gain more sunlight or shade, and so much more. Scientists have been copying the resilient plants’ methods to help engineer our future.
One of the most exciting advancements involves Copiapoa, a genus of cacti with at least 32 species found in the coastal Atacama Desert, the driest nonpolar desert on Earth. These cacti, typically five to six inches wide, can form gray-green bushes that spread out over an area otherwise empty of vegetation.
Documented by many scientists, Copiapoas probably survive by “drinking” the salty fog that sweeps in from the sea every morning, as well as the dew — tiny bits of water — that forms on their spines (尖刺) and skin. This has inspired researcher Tegwen Malik from Swansea University to think about whether the dew-colleting process might be reproduced in metal structures.
Specifically, Malik took a close look at the one-and-a-quarter-inch spines of Copiapoas and found that their surface has a series of tiny channels that broaden at the base. “This creates a surface roughness that enables dewdrops to move along them even against gravity,” she says.
Starting in 2013, she set out to re-create that structure by engineering a flat metal reproduction of the stems and spines of the Copiapoa, which she began testing under a series of different temperatures and humidities. After several years of experiments — testing indoor and outdoor conditions, and with various cooling methods — she finally got it to work. In 2023, Malik published a study showing that the irregular surface was 8 percent more efficient at harvesting dew than a flat sheet used as a baseline.
Malik imagines desert homes with water-collecting features to provide clean water in dry regions. “The easiest way could be to place dew-harvesting surfaces on roofs, but you could also have these structures in tents in the desert,” she says. “We truly have hidden treasures in the Copiapoa, and we are only just learning some of their secrets.”
9. What does the underlined word “resilient” mean in paragraph 1?
A. Highly adaptable to different soils. B. Able to grow quickly and efficiently
C. Resistant to diseases and harmful insects. D. Capable of surviving difficult conditions
10. What drove Tegwen Malik to study Copiapoas?
A. Their metal-like surface. B. Their mechanism to gather water.
C. Their typical appearance D. Their ability to form water drops.
11. What was the main focus of Malik’s experiment with the Copiapoa?
A. Recreating a flat metal copy of it B. Testing if its metal copy would work
C. Seeing how it survives various climates. D. Finding the most efficient cooling method for it.
12 How may Malik’s metal structure be applied?
A. To secure water supply in dry areas. B. To clean salty water in desert homes.
C. To enable desert explorers to travel light. D. To improve ways to discover hidden treasures.
