(2025·山西太原高二上期末)Most people tend to think of cities as places lacking nature, but indeed cities aren't just concrete (混凝土) jungles but are actually bustling with wildlife and nature．According to a study in Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, urban landscapes are more than just human habitats; they also provide special opportunities for wildlife conservation．

“As a city kid growing up during the 1980s, I was fascinated with birds nesting on the top of my neighbour's roof, which sparked my interest in birds and nature，” said Frank La Sorte, a researcher at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology．He believes that by observing our feathered friends in the city, we can see nature as an essential part of our well­being．Protecting nature is like giving ourselves a high­five．

To document the value of cities to birds, the research team from Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Auburn University, and Rutgers University, decided to put cities under the microscope．They mixed and matched bird sightings from citizen scientists of eBird program, endangered species lists, critical habitats, and 2020 U．S．census (普查) data．The team found that natural areas within cities could mean increased access to resources, warmer temperatures and shelters from natural disasters for birds．They also suggest that these green spaces should even allow for unique reappearing opportunities for species, which is not possible in their natural habitats．

But, they also caution that cities aren't always the safest choice for wildlife, which means updating our views of cities as places where we can connect with nature is the first step to stop biodiversity loss．So, next time you're taking a walk down the street, look up, and look around．You might just spot a nature scene that's right beside you．Our urban jungles have thrived．Cities are the new frontier for wildlife conservation．

(2025·安徽合肥六校高二上期末)Air pollution is among the biggest threats against humans, which causes seven million early deaths a year．To fight this problem, four friends put their heads together and designed CityTree, which is a mobile structure that can capture as many pollutants as a forest made up of 275 trees．What makes the “tree” special is that it's not a regular tree at all; it is made up of moss cultures (苔藓培养物) that do a great job of absorption．

“Moss cultures have a much larger surface than any other plant，” Zhengliang Wu, co­founder of Green City Solutions, explained to CNN．“That means we can capture more pollutants．” The entire “tree” sustains itself using solar panels that generate electricity so that it can collect rainwater itself．To monitor the health of the moss, the CityTree has sensors which measure temperature and water quality．

Now, about 20 CityTrees can be found in major cities like Oslo, and Paris．The team also has plans to introduce the CityTree to cities in lower­income countries, which may have worse air pollution．

However, Gary Fuller, an expert on air pollution, thinks that the concept of an urban air purifier might be too
