The Colombia native was never afraid of them when he visited his beloved beach. Instead, he was fascinated by how sharks moved through water using their fins （鳍）.It was no surprise that he became a marine （海洋的） biologist. Concern grew as Cardeñosa learnt about the serious state of sharks worldwide. The International Union for Conservation of Nature reports a shocking rise in the extinction threat to shark species, now affecting 35%, up nearly 50% in a decade. Overfishing stands as the main cause, driven by demand for shark meat and fins. “They are being killed at a rate that cannot survive in the future,” said Cardeñosa.“As soon as I realised they were going through a conservation crisis, I wanted to help what I love the most.” 刷阅读理解 21 Scientists worry the sharks’ dropping numbers could bring an ecological disaster as they play a number of key roles in the ocean. Unlike many fish, sharks take a long time to reproduce. Fisheries kill about 100 million sharks a year, according to the nonprofit Save Our Seas Foundation. Many sharks end up as bycatch when long lines and nets unintentionally catch them. Today, Cardeñosa fights against the illegal shark trade as a Distinguished Postdoctoral Scholar at Florida International University. His innovation—a portable DNA kit like a small red box—plays a key role in identifying shark species and their origins in major ports globally. This breakthrough has greatly improved law enforcement （实施） efforts in ports like Hong Kong, where the amount of seized shark fins has risen from five to a hundred tons annually since the kit’s introduction. 刷阅读理解 22 Cardeñosa’s efforts extend beyond sharks, aiding authorities in stopping trafficking of other endangered species like European eels and South America’s matamata turtles. His commitment earned him recognition from the global agency Directorate of Criminal Investigation and Interpol. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了迭戈·卡德尼奥萨从小热爱鲨鱼，长大后成为海洋生物学家，致力于保护鲨鱼和其他濒危物种的故事。 刷阅读理解 23 1.What led to Diego Cardeñosa’s profession?( ) A A.His great interest in sharks.

Different from conventional methods that can damage ecosystems or require considerable time, labour and resources, AI has the potential to quickly and effectively analyse vast quantities of real-world data. Ecologist Jörg Müller at the University of Würzburg, Germany, and his colleagues have shown that AI tools can help to quantify biodiversity in tropical （热带的） forests by identifying animal species from audio （音频的） recordings.“Our results demonstrate that AI is ready for more comprehensive species identification,” says Müller.“All that is needed now is more training data collected by humans.” 刷阅读理解 29 AI is imperfect, but it could speed up important discoveries, says Nicolas Miailhe, co-founder of The Future Society （TFS）, an international non-profit organisation that aims to better govern AI.“We badly need human specialists to design models, as well as collect, label, check and interpret data,” he says. Researchers at Conservation AI, a UK-based non-profit organisation in Liverpool that uses AI technology for various ecology projects, have developed models that can search through footage and images from drones （无人机） or camera traps to identify wildlife and track animal movements. So far, Conservation AI has processed more than 12.5 million images and detected more than 4 million individual animal appearances across 68 species.“The platform can process tens of thousands of images an hour, in contrast to humans who can do a few thousand at best,” says Paul Fergus, one of Conservation AI’s lead researchers.“The speed at which AI processes data could allow conservationists to protect endangered species from sudden threats,” he adds. 刷阅读理解 30 Miailhe is hopeful that AI can be routinely applied to real-world conservation efforts in the near future.“That’s clearly the way to go,” he says. But he warns that AI consumes computing power, which ultimately has opposite effects on ecosystems.“Environmental impact assessments should be at the centre of AI risk management,” he says. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍科学家们如今正在使用人工智能分析大量生态数据，利用人工智能的强大功能来保护生物多样性。 刷阅读理解 31 1.Which aspect makes AI different from other study methods?( ) B A.Its information accessing speed. B.Its data processing capability. C.Its environmental friendliness. D.Its computing accuracy. 解析 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Different from conventional methods that can damage ecosystems or require considerable time, labour and resources, AI has the potential to quickly and effectively analyse vast quantities of real-world data.”可知，人工智能能够快速且有效地分析大量数据，这是人工智能和传统研究方法的不同之处。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 32 2.What does Müller think is needed for AI to be more helpful?( ) B A.More images of animals. B.More information of audio recordings. C.More complicated tests. D.More data on tropical forests. 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“All that is needed now is more training data collected by humans.”可知，米勒认为，人工智能要想发挥更大的作用，需要更多由人类收集到的数据；根据本段第一句中的“AI tools can help to quantify biodiversity… by identifying animal species from audio recordings”可知，人工智能是通过音频记录来识别动物种类的，所以米勒认为人工智能需要更多的录音信息才能更有帮助。故选B项。 刷阅读理解 33 3.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?( ) C A.Conservation AI’s comment on its AI platform. B.AI platforms’ principle of species identification. C.AI models’ advantages in ecological conservation. D.AI’s potential for providing quick-response measures. 解析 主旨大意题。根据第四段内容可知，非营利组织Conservation AI的研究人员将人工智能技术用于各种生态项目，到目前为止，Conservation AI已经处理了1,250多万张图像，检测到68个物种的400多万只动物的外貌。由此可知，第四段通过列举数据，说明了人工智能模型在生态保护方面的应用和优势。故选C项。 刷阅读理解 34 4.What is Miailhe’s attitude towards using AI for ecological conservation?( ) C A.Optimistic.

The loss of what travel offers would be unacceptable in today’s world. Here are some tips on making wise decisions to minimize pressure on the places we visit and improve our experience. ●Choose mindfully.

Go somewhere only when the landscape, culture or food deeply draws you.2.___ ●Get creative. The best way to ease pressure on over-touristed destinations is to go somewhere else. Though overtourism is described as a problem affecting the entire world, it’s actually concentrated to a small number of extremely popular spots. B C 刷7选5 37 That means you have tons of less-visited options to choose from.3.___ Why not try a regional alternative or check out a popular destination’s lesser-known sights? ● 4.___ Minimize impact and maximize experience by skipping major holidays or rush hour.

The trouble is, “There’s no ‘away’ for your clothes,” says Maxine Bédat, author of the book Unraveled: The Life and Death of a Garment, and an activist trying to change the industry’s wasteful ways. A few statistics tell the story.Fashion is responsible for about 10% of the carbon emissions （排放物） that are tipping our planet towards climate disaster. It produces 20% of all industrial water pollution. And it creates unimaginable quantities of rubbish, with about a garbage truck of clothes burnt or buried in a landfill every second. 刷阅读理解 61 Although some companies have voluntarily tried to minimise their environmental and social impact, little progress has been made. So, a bill known as the New York Fashion Act was introduced. It would help consumers better understand the impact of their purchases and require every large multinational fashion company operating in the state to map their global supply chains, disclose their environmental and social impacts, and set targets to cut emissions. Failure to meet the targets could bring a 2% fine on annual turnover. However, the bill is pro business, argues Ms Bédat, who worked with the bill’s co-sponsors to craft the measure, because it would level the playing field for companies to operate at the same environmental standards. 刷阅读理解 62 Ms Bédat is looking beyond the “more” of fashion to how people value their clothes. Her book closes with a vision of a future when we will love our clothes because we have seized control of our own attention and removed the noise in our inboxes and on our social media channels that had taken our attention from our true needs and desires. And we bought them not to fill other holes in our lives, but with a clear and informed mindset. That could be just enough to clear out anyone’s “closet of regrets”. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了快速发展的时尚产业带来的资源浪费和环境问题以及消费者和企业可采取的应对措施。 刷阅读理解 63 1.What does the underlined word “story” in paragraph 2 refer to?( ) D A.Regrets left by overconsumption.

It is clear to me, as it will no doubt be clear to readers, that ecosystem restoration is crucial. As we seek to mitigate （缓解） and adapt to climate change, and work to reverse （扭转） biodiversity losses, restoration is an important part of the global solution. But while it is widely understood that ecosystem restoration is the right thing to do, there is far less understanding about what exactly it means, and how it is to be achieved. One of the most obvious misunderstandings about ecosystem restoration is that it is all about action, especially planting trees. It is important to understand that forest and woodland ecosystems are not the only crucial environments to restore the ecosystem. Ecosystem restoration relates directly to a huge range of different systems—to farmland soils, to grassland systems—and of course, to our seas and oceans. 刷阅读理解 69 Ecosystem restoration is not always about actively intervening. In many instances, passive intervention can be just as effective, if not more so, as active intervention. This involves simply letting nature take the reins （掌管）.But there are situations in which humans have damaged the environment to such a degree that natural regeneration is impossible. This is when carefully designed action is required. Another key thing to remember is that we cannot succeed in ecosystem restoration without local people’s involvement and, ideally, their leadership. When a community feels a sense of belonging and a deep connection with the land, this provides a firm foundation for future conservation and restoration work. 刷阅读理解 70 While I dislike taking an overly human-centred view, environmental issues cannot be separated in our complex modern world from socio-economic ones. We need to look at people and the planet as a whole and appreciate the complex web of human life and humans’ interaction with the natural world in order to form practical restoration solutions. It is only when we consider the natural environment and human society as interconnected parts that we can really continue to make progress. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了修复生态系统是一个复杂的问题，既要考虑环境的因素，也要考虑社会经济等各方面的因素。只有把自然环境和人类社会看作是相互关联的，我们才能取得真正的进步。 刷阅读理解 71 1.Which shows the proper understanding of ecosystem restoration?( ) B A.Community-led efforts should be reduced. B.Ecosystem restoration involves a variety of systems. C.Direct action on forest ecosystems should be avoided. D.The more trees we plant, the better the ecosystems will be. 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It is important to understand that forest and woodland ecosystems are not the only crucial environments to restore the ecosystem.Ecosystem restoration relates directly to a huge range of different systems—to farmland soils, to grassland systems—and of course, to our seas and oceans.”可知，生态系统的修复涉及不同的生态系统。 刷阅读理解 72 2.In what case is active intervention a must?( ) A A.Nature fails to restore itself to health. B.The cost of passive intervention is high. C.A large population relies on natural resources. D.Active intervention can improve the local economy. 解析 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But there are situations in which humans have damaged the environment to such a degree that natural regeneration is impossible.This is when carefully designed action is required.”可知，当环境无法自然再生时，主动干预是必要的。 刷阅读理解 73 3.According to the last paragraph, what should be done to make practical restoration plans?( ) D A.Focusing on the interests of humans.

Researchers are currently manufacturing glowing flowers and decorative plants that can cast a green light onto our living rooms. Observing a plant’s health via its glow can be a way to instantly measure its health, and the side effect is anybody who wants a healthy glowing plant in their living room can have one. A study published in Nature Biotechnology shows that this goal is well on its way to being a reality. The study authors announce they’ve created a method that causes plants to glow much brighter, and for a longer period of time, than previous efforts. Plants improved by this method should be available for purchase within a few years. 刷阅读理解 84 The research was conducted through teamwork between three scientific institutions and Planta, a biotech start-up in Moscow. When this team examined a poisonous mushroom, they discovered that caffeic acid is responsible for its bioluminescence. In this new study, the team used that information and inserted （放进） enzymes （酶）—which are specific to the mushroom—into the DNA of tobacco plants. In turn, the enzymes were able to interact with the caffeic acid in the tobacco plants, and cause them to glow both in the dark and in the daylight. This method, the scientists claimed, made the plants 10 times brighter than previous efforts and the continuous light production didn’t harm the health of the plants. Interestingly, the light decreased as the leaves aged—but it also increased when the leaves were damaged. In turn, the team suggested this method could also help other researchers monitor plant responses to various pressures and changes in the environment. If a drought or a hungry sheep is harming a plant, bioluminescence could warn of this damage before it’s too late. 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员目前正在利用生物发光技术创造发光的家庭植物。 刷阅读理解 85 1.How can people quickly identify a glowing flower’s health condition?( ) A A.By monitoring its glow.
