21、The deadly bush fires in 2019 and 2020 — which burnt millions of acres over several months. Some 60, 000 koalas were “killed, injured or affected in some way” by the fires, according to a report by the World Wildlife Fund Australia.
“The bushfires were the final straw (稻草),” Josey Sharrad, a campaign manager with the International Fund for Animal Welfare, said in a statement issued Friday. “This must be a wake-up call to Australia and the government to move much faster to protect important habitat from development.”
The country lost 30％ of its total koala population between 2018 and 2021, according to a report from the Australian Koala Foundation. That loss was particularly stark in New South Wales, which saw a 41％ decline.
While the bush fires contributed to the population drop, AKF Chair Deborah Tabart said last year that they were far from the only driver. “We have witnessed a sharp decrease of Koalas because of drought, heat waves, and lack of water for Koalas to drink,”
Government officials have declared koalas endangered across much of eastern Australia. Sharrad, with the International Fund for Animal Welfare, praised the decision but also described it as a “double-edged sword (双刃剑).” “We should never have allowed things to get to the point where we are at risk of losing a national icon (图标),” she said. “If we can’t protect an iconic species, what chance do less important species have?” She also added, “What I admire the most about young people is their power to bring things back. They give me hope!”
【1】What may the decrease of koalas result in?
A．More bushfires.
B．More drinking water.
C．An alarm of environment protection.
D．A campaign for creating new habitat for koalas.
【2】What does the underlined word “stark” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A．Slow.
B．Special.
C．Obvious.
D．Rich.
【3】What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?
A．The causes of fewer Koalas.
B．The severe result of the bushfires.
C．The shortage of water in the areas.
D．The need for a safe habitat for Koalas.
【4】What is the attitude of Sharrad towards the government’s decision?
A．Approved completely.
B．Still doubtful.
C．Hopeful.
D．Negative.
22、No one can deny China’s efforts to reach for the sky.
At one kilometer high, the two Phoenix Towers planned for Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province in central China, will be the tallest in the world if completed on schedule in 2017.
The towers will also be pink, crazily futuristic and environmentally friendly.
Designed to sit on an island in a lake, the largest of the towers will stand 172 meters taller than Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
“We were asked to create an iconic building for Wuhan, which embodies a strong environmental and social content as well as reflecting Chinese tradition,” Laurie Chetwood of UK-based design firm Chetwoods Architects told CNN.
The design is inspired by dualism(二元论) in Chinese culture-the traditional Chinese phoenix symbol of the two birds, Feng and Huang, as well as the idea of yin and yang.
Feng and Huang, or phoenix, are a pair of mythical birds in Chinese culture traditionally used to denote royalty.
Three large spheres containing restaurants will be accessible via suspended “skywalks” between the two towers.
The spheres “represent planets orbiting the towers”, according to the designers.
The larger building will also have the unlikely boast of housing the world’s tallest kaleidoscope(万花筒) driven by a wind turbine(涡轮机).
A commercial square at the towers’ base will meet China’s growing demand for cultural tourism.
“You’ll have a French street, a Japanese street, a Turkish street, and so forth… to allow people to see the world without necessarily having to leave China,” Chetwood told the Guardian.
The towers are designed to have green features such as pollution-absorbing surfaces to filter the city’s air as well as technology to filter the water.
The towers are designed to be able to produce enough power to fulfill their own needs and those of neighboring areas.
“If you work in the UK, if you come up with anything that’s off the wall ( 有点出格的) or slightly out there, you sort of get kicked back,” Chetwood said. “ In China it goes the other way- they ask for a bit more. That’s a stimulating experience for a designer.”
【1】Which of the following about the two Phoenix Towers is TRUE?
A. Their inspiration comes from Chinese culture.
B. At present they are the tallest in the world.
C. They will be surrounded by three ground-level spheres.
D. People will have a taste of foreign flavors inside the spheres.
【2】According to Laurie Chetwood in the last paragraph, China’s response to new ideas is _________.
A. doubtful B. negative
C. cautious D. enthusiastic
【3】This article focuses on the _________ of the two Phoenix Towers.
A. appearances B. construction
C. features D. height
【4】 Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Phoenix Towers: Pink and controversial.
B. The Phoenix Towers: Super tall and green.
C. The Phoenix Towers: Work of a Great Architect.
D. The Phoenix Towers: Work of China-UK cooperation.
23、 Facebook has developed a kind of Al (人工智能), translating between any pair of 100 languages without depending on first translating to English.
Facebook 's system was trained on a data (数据)set of 7. 5 billion sentence pairs collected from the web across 100 languages though not all the languages had an equal number of sentence pairs. "What I was really interested in was cutting out English as a middle man. Globally there are plenty of countries where they speak two languages that aren't English,“ says Angela Fan of Facebook Al who led the work.
For some language pairs， the new system shows obvious improvements in translation quality. For example, translating from Spanish to Portuguese is extremely strong because Spanish is the second-most spoken first language worldwide, meaning the researchers can get a lot of data. Translation between English and Belarusian also is improved because the Al can translate Russian into English, which shares similarities with Belarusian.
While the system isn’t in use on the social network site. Facebook plans to put it to work soon to manage the 20 billion translations made every day when people click “Translate" on posts (帖子))written in more than 160 languages. "Future work will be done on other language,” says Fan "especially for languages where we don't have a lot of data, like South-East Asian and African languages. "
The work “breaks away from the English-centric models and tries to build more different models"， says Sheila Castilho of the ADAPT Centre at Dublin City University. Ireland. “Thai's pretty new and different. But it's hard to know if the Al does a right translation work，” says Castilho. "The users may not know the other language, so they cannot judge the correctness of the translation. "
【1】What's Angela Fan's purpose of making the research?
A.To collect data of all kinds of people.
B.To avoid using English as a middle man in translation.
C.To achieve her dream of becoming a translator.
D.To make learning different languages easier.
【2】Why is it easy to translate from Spanish to Portuguese by Al?
A.Portuguese is similar to Spanish.
B.Spanish is spoken by the largest number of people.
C.Researchers have a good knowledge of the two languages.
D.There is much data on Spanish.
【3】What is Castilho worried about?
A.The safety of Al translation. B.The way of using Facebook.
C.The correctness of Al translation. D.The number of posts on the website.
【4】What is the text mainly about?
A.Facebook Al can translate any pair of 100 languages.
B.Facebook wants to buy a new system.
C.Facebook Al can talk with the users.
D.Face book has lost many users.
24、 Castropignano, a hilltop town in Italy, is following in the footsteps of places like Cinquefrondi and Salemi, becoming the latest place to try to repopulate by attracting newcomers to buy empty buildings. The village is located inland between Rome and Naples, near mountains and delightful countryside. It’s topped by the ruins of an ancient castle, and has a sleepy atmosphere with just one restaurant and one bar—though that could all change depending on who buys the €1 buildings.
The new owners can turn the buildings into whatever they wish, from homes to shops. Instead of selling to the highest bidder (出价者), the locals are keen to match potential buyers with a building proper for their purposes. They welcome anyone who would like to buy a new home here and has a detailed plan of how they intend to restyle and what they would like to do with the building—make it a home, hotel, store or shop. They could also list any requirements they may have, like access for people in wheelchairs. The village is tiny and cars can’t run in the narrow alleys and on steps.
There are around 100 buildings in Castropignano that are in need of renovation (翻修), and the locals hope this plan will both make the village safer and ensure its future. Many younger people have left in search of work, meaning around 60 percent of villagers are over the age of 70. The locals said that they had got nothing great to offer except peacefulness, silence, original nature, oxygen-rich air, great views and fantastic food, perfect to get rid of the daily stress.
The deal is that buyers must renovate their old buildings within three years of buy, and a payment of €2,000 is required, which will be returned after the work has been completed. All you have to do is email at castropignano @ me. com with your plans, and a sweet Italian life could be yours.
