22、It was the phone number, 212-263-8134, at which people can contact the NYU Langone Transplant Institute to begin the process of register to donate a kidney (肾) or part of a liver.
If the right person begins the process, gets through the screening and donates, McCabe will likely live. If that never happens, he’ll probably die. Though knowing I’m probably not his answer, I called and started the screening process. I’ll happily donate a kidney to McCabe or anyone else in similar need if approved.
My organs are well-rested, and have legendary resumes, but they have high miles, too. For the 20 years before I quit drinking in 2003, my liver (肝) and kidneys processed liquor (酒) like Amazon ships books: efficiently, at high volume, with little concern for the broader consequences.
When I called Patricia Tabamo, the living donor coordinator at NYU Langone Health. She emailed paperwork which I was able to complete by auto-filling “yes” under family history for any known disease. Tabamo answered my many questions. There are about 107, 000 people waiting for transplants, and according to Tabamo, about one-fifth of the people who approach her office about donating are approved.
Such donations are not entirely without risk. But 10 years after surgery, a liver or kidney donor is 15% less likely to have died in that decade than the general population. If you give part of your liver, it grows back in eight weeks. If you give one of your two healthy kidneys, you’re unlikely to ever miss it.
However, if enough of us agree to donate organs, we could save the vast majority of the 107,000 candidates, including McCabe.
【1】Who is McCabe?
A．A patient requiring organ transplantation.
B．A friend knowing much about the author.
C．A colleague working with Tabamo.
D．A professor working in the NYU Langone Health.
【2】What can we know about the author?
A．He had to make a replacement liver.
B．He drank too much before 2003.
C．He has ever worked in Amazon.
D．He was told to wait for the donator.
【3】What does the author think of organ donations?
A．They are valueless but supported by the majority.
B．They are not completely safe for donators.
C．They are unbearable for donators.
D．They are fascinating to donators.
【4】What’s the author’s main purpose of writing the text?
A．To inspire people to donate organs.
B．To urge people to do some exercise.
C．To encourage people to quit drinking.
D．To tell people the risk of organ donations.
23、 Shanghai residents passing through the city's eastern Huangpu district in October might have astonished at an unusual sight: a “walking” building. An 85-year-old primary school has been lifted off the ground and relocated using new technology named the “walking machine.”
In the city's latest effort to preserve historic structures, engineers attached nearly 200 mobile supports under the five-story building, according to Lan Wuji, chief technical supervisor (技术总监) of the project. The supports act like robotic legs. They're divided into two groups which alternately rise up and down, imitating the human pace. Attached sensors help control how the building moves forward, said Lan.
In recent decades, China's rapid modernization has seen many historic buildings razed to clear land for high-rise buildings. But there has been growing concern about the architectural heritage lost as a result of destruction across the country. Some cities have launched new preservation and conservation campaigns including, on occasion, the use of advanced technologies that allow old buildings to be relocated rather than destroyed.
Shanghai has possibly been China's most progressive city when it comes to heritage preservation. The survival of a number of 1930s buildings in the famous Bund district and 19th-century “Shikumen” houses in the rebuilt Xintiandi neighborhood have offered examples of how to give old buildings new life. The city also has a satisfying record of relocating old buildings. In 2018, the city relocated a 90-year-old building in Hongkou district, in what was then considered to be Shanghai's most complex relocation project to date.
The Lagena Primary School, which weighs 7,600 tons, posed a new challenge-it's T-shaped, while previously relocated structures were square or four-sided. Experts met to discuss possibilities and test a number of different technologies before deciding on the “walking machine”, Lan said. However, he couldn't share the exact cost of the project, and that relocation costs will differ case by case. “It can't be used as a reference, because we have to preserve the historical building no matter what,” he said. “But in general, it's cheaper than destroying and then rebuilding something in a new location.”
【1】How does the “walking” machine work?
A.It uses hundreds of ropes to lift up the entire building.
B.It uses many wheels to roll the building to the new place.
C.It lifts off the building story by story with the robotic legs.
D.It uses sensors to control the movement of mobile supports.
【2】What does the underlined word “razed” probably mean in Paragraph 3?
A.replaced B.burnt C.protected D.destroyed
【3】According to paragraph 3-4, what can we infer about the heritage preservation in China?
A.The use of advanced technology leads to growing concern.
B.Shanghai is the pioneer in preserving architectural heritage.
C.The local government has already taken action since the 1930s.
D.It consequently holds back the progress of modernization.
【4】Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.New preservation campaigns are launched in China.
B.Modernization poses threats to historic buildings.
C.A building in Shanghai “walks” to a new location.
D.“Walking machine” makes heritage protection cheaper.
24、Using the power of artificial intelligence (AI), scientists have revealed new insights into the creation and destruction of mass extinction. Contrary to conventional knowledge, their study suggests that larger extinctions are not always a form of “creative destruction” that allows new organisms to radiate (向周围辐射出去) and evolve. Instead, it suggests that mass extinction is rarely associated with new species of radiation.
Dr. Hoyal Cuthill, the lead study author from the University of Essex in the UK and the Tokyo Institute of Technology, said in a statement, “Some of the most challenging things to understand the history of life are the vast timelines involved and the number of species. New machine learning applications can help us understand the information in human-readable form. This means that we can, so to speak, hold the evolution of half a billion years in the palm of our hand and gain new insights from what we see.”
They concluded that mass extinction and later radiation were not connected as previously thought. Within 5 percent of the most significant periods of disruption (中断), AI detected “big five mass extinctions, seven more mass extinctions, two mass extinction-radiation events and 15 mass radiations. Most importantly, it discovers that massive radiation and extinction rarely occurred with each other, changing the view that greater extinction leads to a kind of deep cycle-like species radiation of nature. It appears that larger extinctions are certainly not the engine of evolutionary radiation. Take the Cambrian Explosion for example and it was about 41 million years ago when a large group of animals first appeared on the first fossil record and the dawn of a high mobile animal equipped with modern physical features.
This new study found that a handful of other notable explosions of biodiversity, including the Cambrian Explosion, usually occurred at a time when they were largely isolated (孤立的) from extinction. Dr. Nicholas Guttenberg, a study co-author from the Tokyo Institute of Technology explained, “Ecosystems are dynamic and you don’t need anything to exist to allow something new to appear.”
【1】What’s the function of the first paragraph?
A．To analyze the cause of creative destruction.
B．To tell us the result of the new study.
C．To explain the power of artificial intelligence
D．To present the conventional idea of mass extinction.
【2】What do Dr. Hoyal Cuthill’s words imply?
A．New AI machines learn applications better.
B．It’s difficult to understand the history of life.
C．New species appear before mass extinction.
D．AI contributes a lot to the study of evolution.
【3】Why is the Cambrian Explosion mentioned in the text?
A．To provide knowledge of history.
B．To highlight the importance of AI.
C．To support the new study.
D．To prove the previous view is right.
【4】What is the text mainly about?
A．A new understanding of mass extinction.
B．The processes of biological evolution.
C．Animal species with modern physical features
D．The relationship between mass extinction and radiation
