andomithologist(鸟类学家-naturalistetc."He is known as the Father of American National Parks..
Famed documentary filmmaker Ken Burs recently said,"As we got to know him...he was among the highest
individuals n America:Im talking about the level of Abraham Lincoln.Martin Luther Thomas Jefferson
-people who have had a transformational effect on who we are."
So where is the quote from?Well,John Muir was a productive writer.Whether he was writing poetry or simply
family ohn Muir was always putting pen topaper.The quote is from within one of his many letters written
to his sister:
September 3rd,1873
Yosemite Valley
Dear sister Sarah.
I have just retumed from the longest and hardest trip I have ever made in the mountains,having been gone over five
weeks.I am weary.but resting fast:sleepy,but sleeping deep and fast:hungry,but eating much.For two weeks I explored
the glaciers of the summits east of here,sleeping among the snowy mountains without blankets and with little to eat on
climate.
I will soon be off again,determined to use all the season in carrying through my work-will go next to Kings River
ahundred miles south,then to Lake Tahoe and mountains,and in winter work in Oakland with my pen
Though slow,someday I will have the results of my mountain studies in a form in which you all will be able to read
and judge them.The mountains are calling and I must go,and I will work on while I can.studying ceaselessly.
I will write again when I return from Kings River Canyon.
Farewell,with love everlasting.
Yours,
John

Thousands of tons of plastic escape into the environment every year from our mouths.This is because most
chewing gum on sale is made from oil-based synthetic (rubbers,similar to the material used in car tyres.Many
consumers are surprised to leam they have been chewing on plastic.Manufacturers rarely advertise what gum is actually
made of,instead listing"gum base"in the ingredients,some claiming it as sugar-free chewing gum to improve or
health and some stating it as a consistent and safe base.
Like other plastics,chewing gum does not biodegrade.Discarded gum can be found under benches,on pavements,
and in oter publie spaces persists in the environment for many years,hardening,cracking.and breaking
down into microplastics.Cleaning up this pollution is labour-intensive and costly in the UK alone,councils spend around
E7 million each year on gum removal.
Some efforts have been made to address the issue,such as recycling schemes and campaigns encouraging
responsible disposal.In 2021,the environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy launched a chewing gum task force,with
major manufacturers to clean up"historic gum staining"and change publie bebaviour.
However,this approach misses the point.Cleaning up gum does not solve the problem of plastic pollution-it
merely treats the symptom.Calling it a litter issue frames it as a matter of individual ignorance,when it should be seen as
corporate responsibility.Moreover,likeall plastic pollution,the solution requires more than just binning it.Addressing
gum pollution must involve reduction,innovation,producer responsibility,and legislation.
Education about gum's contents and the environmental consequences those ingredients have will reduce
consumption and encourage better disposal habits.More transparent labelling on packaging would empower shoppers to
make informed choices.Stricter regulations can hold manufacturers to account-a tax on synthetic gum can help pay
28.What challenges the common perception of chewing gum?
A.Its sugarless flavor.
C.Its unconfirmed safety
D.Its dental health benefits
29.What does the underlined word"discarded"in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Recycled.
B.Manufactured.
C.Abandoned
D.Removed
30.What isa workable solution to chewing gum pollution?
A.Regular clean-ups
B.Government funding
C.Recycling campaigns.
D.Sustainable altematives
31.Which of the following would be a suitable title for the text?
A.Gum Cheat:A Corporate Fault.
B.Gum Secret:A Hidden Pollutant.
C.Gum Clean-up:A Costly Challenge.
D.Gum Disaster:An Environmental Crisis.

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().
Snakebites represent a substantial global health issue,affecting millions of people each year.According to the World
Health Organization,over2 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 leaming 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 (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 (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
processesespecially in resource-limited settings.
While the study's findings are encouraging.the researchers acknowledge that traditional antitoxins will remain
central tosnakebite 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
mergence of ess expensive medicines for various health challenges.
32.What 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 Al-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 cor of future methods.
