21、Latin America’s first renewable fuel-powered, trash-trapping wheel is cleaning one of Panama’s dirtiest rivers. A local environmental group led the effort.
The wheel is powered by water and sun energy. It pulls waste out of the Juan Diaz River. Most of the waste comes from the capital area of Panama City, where about 2 million people live. Thousands of kilograms of rubbish flow down the river into the ocean each year.
Robert Getman is the leader of the project. “Cleaning beaches is good,” he said, “but it is more effective and cheaper to trap rubbish in rivers because when it reaches the ocean, the environmental and economic cost becomes too high.”
The environmental group Marea Verde created the wheel, which is named Wanda Diaz, in late September. By the middle of October, Wanda had gathered 28. 6 cubic meters of plastic bottles from the water.
The Juan Diaz River is one of the most polluted in Panama. Waste systems in the area are poor, and land development is not well supervised. The river also passes through Panama City, one of Central America’s largest cities.
Over five years, Marea Verde projects have slowed the spread of rubbish along Panama’s rivers and coastline. Earlier, the group introduced its “Barrier or Trash”technology, a floating device. It caught more than 100 metric tons of waste in the Matias Hernandez River between 2019 and 2020.
“We want to raise awareness that we can prevent the death of this very important river,”said Marea Verde member Sandy Watemberg. She expressed her hope that the wheel will help. But she also pointed to the need for those who use single-use plastics to rethink their behavior. “The most important thing is to achieve a change in habits,” she said.
【1】What makes the wheel the first of its kind?
A．Its size.
B．Its power.
C．Its shape.
D．Its color.
【2】Which statement matches Robert Getman’s opinion?
A．We’d better remove rubbish before it enters the sea.
B．We should clean beaches so as not to pollute the sea.
C．It’s cheap for humans to clean up the ocean.
D．It’s better to leave waste in the sea than in the river.
【3】What does the underlined word “supervised” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A．Supposed.
B．Protected.
C．Accepted.
D．Controlled.
【4】What did Sandy Watemberg call on people to do?
A．Support the project.
B．Use single-use plastics more.
C．Change their habits.
D．Realize the danger the river is in.
22、As Easy as 1,2,3
“Uno，dos，tres…”James counted out loud the number of pages in his history report. His older brother，Matt，sat across the kitchen table from him.
“What are you doing now，James？”asked Matt，slightly bothered by James’s loud voice. “I’m trying to study for my math test. I can’t focus on my study if you keep talking.”Matt complained.
“I need to count the number of pages. We need to have at least five pages about the American Revolution. So far I only have three.”
“Why do you have to count out loud？Why does it have to be in Spanish？”Matt asked.
“Because we’re learning our numbers in Spanish class. My Spanish teacher said that speaking to others loudly instead of reading to ourselves will help us with our pronunciation.”
“I’m going to another room，”Matt said as he picked up his books.
“Okay，but you’ll be sorry when the day comes that I know Spanish and you don’t,” James joked.
A few weeks later，James and Matt visited the local grocery store. While they were there，Matt saw a sign written in Spanish.
“James，”Matt said to his brother.“Do you know what this sign says？”Matt asked，expecting James to stare at the sign without understanding.
To Matt’s surprise，James read the sign out loud.“The sign says，‘Hello. Welcome to our store，” James said. Matt was surprised. He knew that James had been practicing Spanish，but he did not realize that his brother was advancing that quickly.
“I can also read that sign over there，”James said，pointing to a sign warning customers about the wet floor.
“Well，James，”Matt said as they walked out of the store.“I’m impressed by how quickly you are learning to speak Spanish.”
“Spanish is easy and fun to learn，”James replied，smiling with confidence.“You should practice with me. We could both speak Spanish at home.”
Matt thought about James’s remark and said，“That’s a great idea！”

23、 Some 15 years ago, Ross Willard volunteered with a food program in Harrisburg, Pa.. He found children riding bicycles with brakes that didn’t work. The retired railroad manager saw the importance of safely riding for children, so he began repairing bicycles on street corners.
Over time, more and more people came to have their bicycles repaired. Mr. Willard opened his first shop in 2007 and three years later he founded his own company Recycle Bicycle Harrisburg. The all-volunteer nonprofit organization has been offering service for residents in the community. Regular visitors include children and their parents, as well as halfway house residents seeking to perform community service hours while also building their own bikes.
The organization has a do-it-yourself philosophy: Although there is no charge for any repairs, or even bicycles, most visitors (except young children) are tasked with making their own repairs with the assistance of volunteer trainers.
Since its founding, Recycle Bicycle has distributed thousands of donated bikes to the Harrisburg community-averaging about 900 per year in the past decade. He’s known as “Mr. Bicycle,” around the Pennsylvania capital. He estimates that the organization repairs some 3,000 bikes a year.
Sitting in the organization’s shop space, he discusses the volunteerism and sense of service that were imprinted on him as a child by his parents. This led to a strong belief about fixing problems that one finds in the community.
【1】Why did Willard begin repairing bicycles on street corners?
A.He felt bored with the food program. B.He decided to set up his own business.
C.He needed to make some extra money. D.He wanted to ensure the safety of cyclists.
【2】What does “do-it-yourself philosophy” aim at?
A.Visitors. B.Volunteer trainers.
C.Shoppers. D.Young children.
【3】Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “imprinted”?
A.depended. B.realized.
C.ignored. D.impressed.
【4】What is the main idea of the text?
A.How to repair a bicycle.
B.Community needs bicycle repair service.
C.The organization offers service for the community.
D.Repairing a bicycle yourself can save time and money.
24、Rising ocean temperatures killed about 14% of the world's coral reefs in just under a decade, according to a new analysis from the Global Coral Reef Monitoring Network. In other words, the amount of coral lost between 2008 and 2019 equals more than all of the living corals in Australia. The report — the first of its kind since 2008 — found that warming caused by climate change has placed coral reefs under "continuous stress."
But it also found signs of hope, noting that many of these reefs may be able to recover if immediate action is taken to fight future warming. "People around the world depend on healthy coral reefs and the services they provide for food, entertainment, and protection from storms," said Jennifer Koss, director of the NOAA's Coral Reef Conservation Program. "It is possible to reduce the losses we are seeing and save these reefs, but doing so relies on us as a global community making more environmentally friendly decisions in our everyday lives."
NOAA calls this the largest global analysis of coral reef health ever made: "The analysis used data from nearly two million observations from more than 12,000 collection sites in 73 countries over 40 years (1978 to 2019), representing the work over 300 scientists. " The study identifies" coral bleaching (褪色) events caused by rising sea surface temperatures" as the biggest cause of coral loss.
They also observed some recovery in 2019, with coral reefs regaining 2% of their coral cover. "This suggests that if pressures on these critical ecosystems ease, then coral reefs have the ability to recover, potentially within a decade, to the healthy reefs that were common pre-1998," reads a GCRMN release. On the other hand, continued warming could cause greater damage. Sharp decreases in coral cover agreed with increases in sea surface temperature, which experts say shows coral's vulnerability (易受伤害) to the sudden large increases — a phenomenon they say could happen more frequently as the planet continues to warm.
【1】What does Jennifer Koss say about the situation of coral reefs?
A．They are dying out.
B．They are sensitive to warming.
C．They have a chance of recovery
D．They have benefited from human beings.
【2】Why are lots of data listed in paragraph 3?
A．To show the result of the study.
B．To present the size of the study.
C．To highlight the difficulty of the study
D．To explain the importance of the study.
【3】What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A．Constant planet warming damages coral reefs entirely.
B．Coral reefs will recover to the healthy ones within ten years.
C．The phenomenon of coral loss was common before 1998
D．The level of coral cover is a sign of reef health.
【4】Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Coral reef protection is being ignored.
B．Climate change is killing the world's coral reefs.
C．Australia is seeing a rapid loss of coral reefs.
D．Rising ocean temperature is destroying land creatures.
