M: So you can decide on your menu.
W: Yes, but obviously the ones I know how to cook. Then I advertise it so people can book a meal. The most amazing thing is that all the advertising is done through websites and because you know how many people you are cooking for, food doesn’t get wasted.
M: Nice.
W: Besides, I could buy all the things without risk because customers pay in advance. The greatest advantage, though, is by having ten customers. At most, I don’t need to hire a waiter.
M: Do you ever run into problems?
W: Yes, I did one meal on a beach. And the wind blew sand into people’s food. Fortunately, I brought a large umbrella to protect myself from the sun, so I put it around their table instead.

Don’t prevent kids and teenagers from using the Internet. It’s important for their education and can help them make friends too. Now let me tell you a bit about some sites we found. Of course, there are a limited number of sites for the very young. But we would suggest one called Playtime Online. It’s designed for children from four to six years old. It’s really colorful and helps children learn skills for games. Children love it, and it helps them when they begin school. Then from five until about ten years of age, there’s a really useful web site called Moving Up. This takes playtime on a step of the and increases the math and language skills of the child. Teachers speak highly of this site for child development. When children get into their teens, the Internet can be a more dangerous place. Net Aware for the twelve to sixteen age group makes young people more aware of online dangers. It’s a good site for children to look at before they start using the Internet on their own. The last site is invaluable for teens studying for exams. Sixteen to eighteen year olds love Test Doctors, which is a site designed to help students study for their exams and is full of handy tips for improving study skills. The site is run by subject specialists, so it’s packed full of information.

When the call came for volunteers to visit local schools, I jumped at the opportunity, which eventually brought me a special experience. Spending the past 3 years with my head down and focusing on my PhD, I liked the idea of getting out and sharing what I was learning. In class, I answered questions raised by students with great passion. Though I returned to normal lab routine the next day, the experience planted a seed, leading me to a new career.
I entered graduate school with the hope of becoming a professor where I could balance research and teaching undergraduates. I was perfectly happy with my life for many years, but after I became a postdoc (博士后) I realized something was off. I felt lost in the fine details of the research papers and desired to offer a more significant contribution.
When I struggled, a career conference was held where scientists described how they had changed the job to positions at museums or research institutes,and how they shared scientific knowledge with children and others. They made me realize that science education could even be a career.
Initially, I wrote about scientific discoveries for the public and worked at a science enrichment center. Eventually I found a job teaching biology to public high school students. The first year was difficult, because I had to learn classroom management and the best teaching practices. But I soon adapted to my new job and became confident in my choice. It’s also pleasant to think I've done my best to guide my students’ lives in new directions, however big or small.
I sometimes look back wistfully (留恋地) on my research career, but when I see the immediate impact that I am making on young people’s lives, I know my new path is a good match for my skills and passions.
24. Why was the volunteer experience special for the author?
A. It introduced her to teaching. B. It freed her from research.
C. It tested her instructional skills. D. It showed her passion for science.

“Big Tree,” an old southern live oak, sits in a park just outside Orlando’s business district. It’s been struck by lightning at least three times and has survived many hurricanes — and it grew from a seed around the same time Juan Ponce de León’s ship first landed on Florida’s eastern coast.
Over 400 years old, the tree is so impressive that members of a Michigan-based nonprofit flew to Orlando in February to climb the tree and cut branches and leaves. The researchers are now in the midst of the process to grow new roots from the cuttings. The reason: To clone the historic tree, store its DNA and plant potentially thousands of cloned trees across the Southeast.
In order to clone an ancient tree, researchers must climb it to find a piece of live tissue. The freshly cut branches and leaves are taken to the group’s lab in Michigan, where, in climate-controlled rooms, researchers work to promote growth from the cuttings.
The most common method is by rooted cuttings. In this method, a tip of a tree’s branch is dipped (蘸) into hormones, placed into a foam plug (泡沫塞) and set inside a mist room. Then, the waiting begins. A sign of life can take several months to a year to show, if one comes at all. In another method called tissue culture, researchers take a quarter-inch of branch, dip it into a mixture made up of a dozen hormones and other chemicals, seal (密封) it in a container and wait to see whether it will grow roots.
Experts lauded the group for its creative methods and reproduction in large numbers, but they doubt whether the clones will grow as the originals do. Scott Merkle, a professor of forest biology at the University of Georgia, said, “There are so many variables that there’s no certainty that they will be able to survive and perform better than other trees that you plant on the same land”. He added that the age of historic trees makes them difficult to study. “I think it’s a great thing that they’ re doing. I just don’t know how realistic it is.”
28. According to the passage, what do the researchers aim to do?
A. To study the reason for the survival of “Big Tree”.
B. To save thousands of trees across the Southeast.
C. To analyse the effects of climate on tree growth.
D. To clone an ancient tree from its original.
29. What do we know about the two methods mentioned in paragraph 4?
A. Tissue culture is the most frequently used method.
B. There is a chance that the branch will fail to grow roots.
C. In the first method the live tissue is sealed in a container.
D. A mixture of hormones and other chemicals is needed in both methods.
30 What does the underlined word “lauded” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Praised. B. Met. C. Joined. D. Contacted.
31. What’s Scott Merkle’s attitude to the group’s work?
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Cautious. D. Unclear.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了研究人员正尝试克隆一棵有400多年历史的南方生命橡树“大树”的过程、方法及专家对此的看法。他们采集了这棵树的枝条和叶子,试图培育出新的根系以克隆这棵树,并大量繁殖,但专家对克隆树能否像原树一样生长持怀疑态度。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The researchers are now in the midst of the process to grow new roots from the cuttings. The reason: To clone the historic tree, store its DNA and plant potentially thousands of cloned trees across the Southeast.(研究人员目前正在从插枝上培育新根。原因是:为了克隆这棵历史悠久的树,储存它的DNA,并在东南部种植数千棵克隆树)”可知,研究人员的目的是从原树中克隆一棵古树。故选D。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The most common method is by rooted cuttings. In this method, a tip of a tree’s branch is dipped (蘸) into hormones, placed into a foam plug (泡沫塞) and set inside a mist room. Then, the waiting begins. A sign of life can take several months to a year to show, if one comes at all. (最常用的方法是插枝。在这种方法中,将树枝的尖端浸入激素中,放入泡沫塞中,并置于雾室中。然后,等待开始了。生命的迹象可能需要几个月到一年的时间才能显现出来,如果有的话。)”以及“ In another method called tissue culture, researchers take a quarter-inch of branch, dip it into a mixture made up of a dozen hormones and other chemicals, seal(密封) it in a container and wait to see whether it will grow roots.(在另一种被称为组织培养的方法中,研究人员取出四分之一英寸的树枝,将其浸入由十几种激素和其他化学物质组成的混合物中,将其密封在容器中,等待它是否会长出根。)”可知,第一种方法中生命的迹象可能需要几个月到一年的时间才能显现出来;第二种方法中,研究人员需要等待它是否会长出根,即表示研究人员不确定其是否会长出根。由此推断,这两种方法中,树枝有可能无法生长出根,存在无法成功克隆的可能性。故选B。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句子“Experts… the group for its creative methods and reproduction in large numbers, but they doubt whether the clones will grow as the originals do. (专家们对该组织的创新方法和大量繁殖表示……,但他们怀疑克隆体是否会像原代植物那样生长。)”中的 but可知,前后是转折关系,虽然专家们对克隆体是否会像原代植物那样生长表示怀疑,但是他们对该组织的创新方法和大量繁殖表示称赞,划线单词表示“称赞”,与A项“Praised.(赞美)”意思相近。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段 Scott Merkle 所说的话“ “There are so many variables that there’s no certainty that they will be able to survive and perform better than other trees that you plant on the same land”(“有太多的变量,无法确定它们是否能够存活下来,并且比你在同一块土地上种植的其他树木表现得更好。”)”以及“He added that the age of historic trees makes them difficult to study. “I think it’s a great thing that they’re doing. I just don’t know how realistic it is.”(他补充说,古树的年龄使得研究它们变得困难。“我认为他们正在做的事情很棒。我只是不知道这有多现实。”)”可知,ScottMerkle对这一团队的工作表示赞美,同时他也表示了自己的担忧即因为有太多的变量,所以不确定该研究的结果,由此可推知,他的态度是谨慎的。故选C。
D
A new groundbreaking study reveals a landmark breakthrough in the field of snakebite treatment. Researchers, led by David Baker from the University of Washington, have designed new proteins — unlike any found in nature — that can inactivate some of the most poisonous components of snake bite toxins (毒素).
Snakebites represent a substantial global health issue, affecting millions of people each year. According to the World Health Organization, over 2 million people suffer from snakebites annually, with more than 100,000 deaths and 300,000 cases of permanent disabilities. Current treatment options, mainly obtained from animal blood, often present drawbacks, including high production costs, limited efficiency, and severe side effects, such as causing shock and breathing difficulties.
In light of these challenges, Baker and his team have made effective use of deep learning tools to develop artificial proteins capable of attaching to and inactivating toxins. The study focuses on a specific group of snake proteins known as three-finger toxins. These toxins often bypass the immune (免疫的) system, making conventional treatments ineffective. Notably, the newly designed proteins provide significant protection against deadly amounts of three-finger toxins in mice, achieving survival rates ranging from 80% to 100%.
By avoiding the lengthy and resource-intensive processes associated with conventional antibody development, this approach could lead to more accessible and affordable treatments. Also, the new proteins are smaller, allowing for greater penetration (渗透) into body systems to quickly inactivate the toxins and reduce damage. The efficiency and speed at which these proteins can be designed and produced using AI indicate a transformative shift in drug discovery processes, especially in resource-limited settings.
While the study’s findings are encouraging, the researchers acknowledge that traditional antitoxins will remain central to snakebite treatment for the near future. The newly created computer-designed antitoxins can be integrated into existing treatment as additions, enhancing the overall effectiveness of established treatments. Meanwhile, scientists believe the new methods employed in this study could be beneficial to tackling other diseases, potentially leading to the emergence of less expensive medicines for various health challenges.
32. Which is a shortcoming of the current snakebite treatments?
A. They mainly rely on animal blood. B. They are effective in certain regions.
C. They can lead to serious health risks. D. They may leave toxins in patients’ bodies.
33. How did Baker’s team deal with the current challenges?
A. By inventing deep learning tools. B. By identifying more snake toxins.
C. By enhancing the immune system. D. By designing AI-generated proteins.
34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about concerning Baker’s new study?
A. Its advantages. B. Its strategies. C. Its procedures. D. Its limitations.
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The existing approaches are hard to change.
B. The conventional treatments are out of date.
C. The new methods might enlighten other treatments.
D. The new antitoxins will be the core of future methods.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. A 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要报道了一项科学家利用AI设计新型蛋白质,成功中和蛇毒的突破性研究。

I am most interested in the impact of warming temperatures on snow melting rates, and I have started studying snowmelt since 2009 in Utah and Colorado. When I skied to research sites in Utah to collect snow for my experiment, the mountainous landscapes were covered in dust. ____37____ It’s clear that 2009 was one of the biggest years for dust deposition (沉积) onto snow.
____38____ I usually have to cover several kilometers, carrying a 27-kilogramme pack with a shovel (铲子) to dig a snow hole, tools to cut snow and measure its density, and containers to collect snow for analyses. One year, I hit a dusty area of snow, broke my ski and sliced my leg open.
In areas with heavy dust deposition, such as the southern Rocky Mountains, dust speeds up melting by one or two months. Warming air temperatures affect snow gathering, but dust builds up over time and darkens the surface. ____39____
I’m now exploring different ice and snow landscapes for further research. For example, how black-carbon buildup following forest fires affects melting. ____40____ As we move into a future that is likely to be even dustier, we need them to predict snowmelt for many reasons, including working out how to use water in the western United States efficiently.
A. The dust caused a lot of trouble.
B. I went for miles in the wilderness.
C. Doing my research is no easy task.
D. One of the goals is to develop snowmelt models.
E. In Colorado, the red dust from desert soils had also blown in.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了雪水文学家McKenzie Skiles的研究工作及其意义。
【36题详解】
根据上文“My name is McKenzie Skiles and I’m a snow hydrologist (水文学家) at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City.(我叫McKenzie Skiles,是盐湖城犹他大学的雪水文学家)”以及下文“Actually, the purpose is to track dust’s impact on water resources.(实际上,目的是追踪灰尘对水资源的影响)”可知,这里介绍了自己的身份和职业并指出实际上工作的目的是追踪灰尘对水资源的影响。因此,这里需要一个句子来衔接上下文,并解释自己的工作具体是什么,与G项“My job is to ski in the wilderness to measure dust on top of snow each spring.( 我的工作是每年春天在野外滑雪,测量雪上的灰尘)”表达的含义一致,故选G项。
【37题详解】
根据上文“When I skied to research sites in Utah to collect snow for my experiment, the mountainous landscapes were covered in dust.(当我滑雪到犹他州的研究地点为我的实验收集雪时,山区景观被灰尘覆盖)”以及下文“It’s clear that 2009 was one of the biggest years for dust deposition (沉积) onto snow.( 很明显,2009年是雪上灰尘沉积最多的年份之一)”可知,这句话描述了在犹他州的研究地点滑雪收集雪样时,山区景观被灰尘覆盖的情景。接下来,需要找到一个句子,它既能与上句中的描述相联系,又能为下句提供背景或证据,E项“In Colorado, the red dust from desert soils had also blown in.(在科罗拉多州,沙漠土壤中的红色灰尘也被吹进来了)”表达的含义符合语境,故选E项。
【38题详解】
根据下文“I usually have to cover several kilometers, carrying a 27-kilogramme pack with a shovel (铲子) to dig a snow hole, tools to cut snow and measure its density, and containers to collect snow for analyses.(我通常要走几公里,带着一个27公斤重的包和一把铲子挖雪洞,带着削雪和测量雪密度的工具,带着收集雪进行分析的容器)”可知,此处表达的是作者的研究工作不是一件容易的事,与C项“Doing my research is no easy task.(做我的研究绝非易事)”表达的含义一致,故选C项。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Warming air temperatures affect snow gathering, but dust builds up over time and darkens the surface.(气温升高会影响积雪,但随着时间的推移,灰尘会堆积起来,使地表变暗)”这句话表明了两个事实:一是空气温度的升高会影响雪的积聚,二是随着时间的推移,灰尘会不断积累并使雪的表面变黑。接下来,需要找到一个合适的句子来承接这个描述,并解释灰尘使雪的表面变黑之后可能产生的后果,与F项“As a result, the snow will absorb more sunlight and quicken melting.(因此,雪会吸收更多的阳光,加速融化)”表达的含义一致,故选F项。
【40题详解】
根据上文“I’m now exploring different ice and snow landscapes for further research. For example, how black-carbon buildup following forest fires affects melting.( 我现在正在探索不同的冰雪景观,以便进一步研究。例如,森林火灾后黑碳的积累如何影响融化)”以及下文“As we move into a future that is likely to be even dustier, we need them to predict snowmelt for many reasons, including working out how to use water in the western United States efficiently(随着我们进入一个可能更加尘土飞扬的未来,我们需要他们预测融雪,原因有很多,包括研究如何有效利用美国西部的水)”可知,此处表示的是作者正在探索不同的冰雪景观以进行进一步的研究,并给出了一个具体的例子,即森林火灾后黑色碳的积累如何影响融化。接下来,作者谈到了未来可能会更加多尘的环境,并强调了预测雪融化的重要性,包括如何在美国西部有效利用水资源,在这个背景下,需要找到一个句子来连接上文中关于雪融化的研究与下文中对未来环境的预测以及水资源利用的讨论,D项“One of the goals is to develop snowmelt models.(目标之一是开发融雪模型)”表达的含义一致,故选D项。

【56题详解】

【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:1996年,创建于南京城,南京先锋书店是一个在中国众所周知的书店品牌。分析句子可知,Librairie Avant-Garde为句子主语,is为句子谓语,设空处需用非谓语动词,再根据句意“(被)创建于南京城”可知,动词found与主语为动宾关系,需用过去分词作状语,表示被动意义。因为放于句首,故首字母需大写。故填Founded。

【63题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意:陈家铺的这家书店已经成为一个必看景点。根据句意“一个必看景点”可知,设空处需用不定冠词修饰名词景点,根据下文must第一个音节为辅音,故需用不定冠词a。故填a。
【64题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:陈家铺本身也被誉为一个缩小城乡发展和共同繁荣示范区。分析句子可知,Chenjiapu为句子主语,is being praised为句子谓语,再根据句意“陈家铺本身”可知,设空处需用反身代词作名词Chenjiapu的同位语,因为名词为物的单数形式,故用反身代词单数形式。故填itself。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When Mary entered the south Pole Penguin Research Lab, she saw her friend Tom gently stroking (轻抚) a penguin in his arms. As children of the lab scientists, Mary and Tom often observed the emperor penguins that were studied to understand how they adapted to extreme temperatures —insights that could aid human survival.
“We’re thirteen, Tom. It’s time to grow up and stop playing with the lab penguins,” said Mary as she started cleaning. “They’re research animals, not pets.”
“But the birds listen to me.” insisted Tom, his breath forming a cloud in the freezing air. “You’re just trying to be a penguin whisperer again,” Mary replied, shaking her head with a gentle smile. The penguins seemed playful as they walked, dove, swam and chased their live fish for sport before eating.
Suddenly , an alarm rang out and red lights flashed , signaling a problem. The kids rushed over to look into it. “It’s colder than before —there’s ice forming on the water,” noted Tom. Though always cold, Mary had never seen ice here before. She checked the habitat monitor and found that the temperature had gone down a lot. “The heater must be broken!”
Mary quickly sent a message to their parents’ research team, who were conducting outdoor studies. With the adults away, the kids would have to deal with the freezing conditions until help arrived.
Time dragged as Mary and Tom anxiously waited. The increasing cold caused them to shake. “I wonder what emperor penguins do in extreme cold, since they stay in the Pole all winter instead of going somewhere warmer,” asked Mary. “They huddle (挤作一团), ” Tom answered. “They huddle together tightly so that the birds in the middle will be warm enough.” “What about the ones on the edge?” Mary asked. “They push their way towards the center, and then move back out to the edge, and struggle back again. Scientists in the early 21st century recorded it.” He replied as he stared at the large crowd of the penguins in the lab.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150 左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
”I have an idea to stay warm1" Tom shouted excitedly.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Two and a half hours later , the parents returned with help.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】“I have an idea to stay warm!” Tom shouted excitedly. Spreading his arms, he suggested joining the penguin huddles. Worried that the penguins wouldn’t let them, Mary hesitated but was soon persuaded by Tom’s assuring grin. He slowly approached the crowded penguins, crouching down. Gently stroking them with care, he whispered softly. Though startled at first, the penguins recognized Tom and let him into their group. Mary quickly followed. The children squeezed into the huddle’s edge with the penguins. Just as the birds did, they moved toward the middle and back out as the group shifted.
Two and a half hours later, the parents returned with help. Rushing in calling for the kids, they were surprised. The children were safely surrounded by Emperors in a large bundle. When asked how they stayed warm, the kids looked at each other proudly. “We used what the Emperor Penguins do,” they told their parents. Mary patted Tom’s shoulder with admiration, calling him a penguin whisperer. With a big smile, Tom gave credit to the penguins who taught them a lot. Their teamwork had seen them through the difficult cold with the penguins’ aid.

When the call came for volunteers to visit local schools, I jumped at the opportunity, which eventually brought me a special experience. Spending the past 3 years with my head down and focusing on my PhD, I liked the idea of getting out and sharing what I was learning. In class, I answered questions raised by students with great passion. Though I returned to normal lab routine the next day, the experience planted a seed, leading me to a new career.
I entered graduate school with the hope of becoming a professor, where I could balance research and teaching undergraduates. I was perfectly happy with my life for many years, but after I became a postdoc (博士后) I realized something was off. I felt lost in the fine details of the research papers and desired to offer a more significant contribution.
When I struggled a career conference was held where scientists described how they had changed the job to positions at museums or research institutes,and how they shared scientific knowledge with children and others. They made me realize that science education could even be a career.
Initially, I wrote about scientific discoveries for the public and worked at a science enrichment center. Eventually I found a job teaching biology to public high school students. The first year was difficult, because I had to learn classroom management and the best teaching practices. But I soon adapted to my new job and became confident in my choice. It’s also pleasant to think I've done my best to guide my students’ lives in new directions, however big or small.
I sometimes look back wistfully (留恋地) on my research career, but when I see the immediate impact that I am making on young people’s lives, I know my new path is a good match for my skills and passions.

“Big Tree,” an old southern live oak, sits in a park just outside Orlando’s business district. It’s been struck by lightning at least three times and has survived many hurricanes — and it grew from a seed around the same time Juan Ponce de León’s ship first landed on Florida’s eastern coast.
Over 400 years old, the tree is so impressive that members of a Michigan-based nonprofit flew to Orlando in February to climb the tree and cut branches and leaves. The researchers are now in the midst of the process to grow new roots from the cuttings. The reason: To clone the historic tree, store its DNA and plant potentially thousands of cloned trees across the Southeast.
In order to clone an ancient tree, researchers must climb it to find a piece of live tissue. The freshly cut branches and leaves are taken to the group’s lab in Michigan, where, in climate-controlled rooms, researchers work to promote growth from the cuttings.
The most common method is by rooted cuttings. In this method, a tip of a tree’s branch is dipped (蘸) into hormones, placed into a foam plug (泡沫塞) and set inside a mist room. Then, the waiting begins. A sign of life can take several months to a year to show, if one comes at all. In another method called tissue culture, researchers take a quarter-inch of branch, dip it into a mixture made up of a dozen hormones and other chemicals, seal (密封) it in a container and wait to see whether it will grow roots.
Experts lauded the group for its creative methods and reproduction in large numbers, but they doubt whether the clones will grow as the originals do. Scott Merkle, a professor of forest biology at the University of Georgia, said, “There are so many variables that there’s no certainty that they will be able to survive and perform better than other trees that you plant on the same land”. He added that the age of historic trees makes them difficult to study. “I think it’s a great thing that they’ re doing. I just don’t know how realistic it is.”
28. According to the passage what do the researchers aim to do?
A. To study the reason for the survival of “Big Tree”.
B. To save thousands of trees across the Southeast.
C. To analyse the effects of climate on tree growth.
D. To clone an ancient tree from its original.
29. What do we know about the two methods mentioned in paragraph 4?
A. Tissue culture is the most frequently used method.
B. There is a chance that the branch will fail to grow roots.
C. In the first method the live tissue is sealed in a container.
D. A mixture of hormones and other chemicals is needed in both methods.
30. What does the underlined word “lauded” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Praised. B. Met. C. Joined. D. Contacted.
31. What’s Scott Merkle’s attitude to the group’s work?
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Cautious. D. Unclear.
D
A new groundbreaking study reveals a landmark breakthrough in the field of snakebite treatment. Researchers, led by David Baker from the University of Washington, have designed new proteins — unlike any found in nature — that can inactivate some of the most poisonous components of snake bite toxins (毒素).
Snakebites represent a substantial global health issue, affecting millions of people each year. According to the World Health Organization, over 2 million people suffer from snakebites annually, with more than 100,000 deaths and 300,000 cases of permanent disabilities. Current treatment options, mainly obtained from animal blood, often present drawbacks, including high production costs, limited efficiency, and severe side effects, such as causing shock and breathing difficulties.
In light of these challenges, Baker and his team have made effective use of deep learning tools to develop artificial proteins capable of attaching to and inactivating toxins. The study focuses on a specific group of snake proteins known as three-finger toxins. These toxins often bypass the immune (免疫的) system, making conventional treatments ineffective. Notably, the newly designed proteins provide significant protection against deadly amounts of three-finger toxins in mice, achieving survival rates ranging from 80% to 100%.
By avoiding the lengthy and resource-intensive processes associated with conventional antibody development, this approach could lead to more accessible and affordable treatments. Also, the new proteins are smaller, allowing for greater penetration (渗透) into body systems to quickly inactivate the toxins and reduce damage. The efficiency and speed at which these proteins can be designed and produced using AI indicate a transformative shift in drug discovery processes, especially in resource-limited settings.
While the study’s findings are encouraging, the researchers acknowledge that traditional antitoxins will remain central to snakebite treatment for the near future. The newly created computer-designed antitoxins can be integrated into existing treatment as additions, enhancing the overall effectiveness of established treatments. Meanwhile, scientists believe the new methods employed in this study could be beneficial to tackling other diseases, potentially leading to the emergence of less expensive medicines for various health challenges.
32. Which is a shortcoming of the current snakebite treatments?
A. They mainly rely on animal blood. B. They are effective in certain regions.
C. They can lead to serious health risks. D. They may leave toxins in patients’ bodies.
33. How did Baker’s team deal with the current challenges?
A. By inventing deep learning tools. B. By identifying more snake toxins.
C. By enhancing the immune system. D. By designing AI-generated proteins.
34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about concerning Baker’s new study?
A. Its advantages. B. Its strategies. C. Its procedures. D. Its limitations.
35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The existing approaches are hard to change.
B. The conventional treatments are out of date.
C. The new methods might enlighten other treatments.
D. The new antitoxins will be the core of future methods.

When Mary entered the south Pole Penguin Research Lab, she saw her friend Tom gently stroking (轻抚) a penguin in his arms. As children of the lab scientists, Mary and Tom often observed the emperor penguins that were studied to understand how they adapted to extreme temperatures —insights that could aid human survival.
“We’re thirteen, Tom. It’s time to grow up and stop playing with the lab penguins,” said Mary as she started cleaning. “They’re research animals, not pets.”
“But the birds listen to me.” insisted Tom, his breath forming a cloud in the freezing air. “You’re just trying to be a penguin whisperer again,” Mary replied, shaking her head with a gentle smile. The penguins seemed playful as they walked, dove, swam and chased their live fish for sport before eating.
Suddenly , an alarm rang out and red lights flashed , signaling a problem. The kids rushed over to look into it. “It’s colder than before —there’s ice forming on the water,” noted Tom. Though always cold, Mary had never seen ice here before. She checked the habitat monitor and found that the temperature had gone down a lot. “The heater must be broken!”
Mary quickly sent a message to their parents’ research team, who were conducting outdoor studies. With the adults away, the kids would have to deal with the freezing conditions until help arrived.
Time dragged as Mary and Tom anxiously waited. The increasing cold caused them to shake. “I wonder what emperor penguins do in extreme cold, since they stay in the Pole all winter instead of going somewhere warmer,” asked Mary. “They huddle (挤作一团), ” Tom answered. “They huddle together tightly so that the birds in the middle will be warm enough.” “What about the ones on the edge?” Mary asked. “They push their way towards the center, and then move back out to the edge, and struggle back again. Scientists in the early 21st century recorded it.” He replied as he stared at the large crowd of the penguins in the lab.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150 左右;
