21、The COVID-19 vaccination（接种疫苗） rate in the US has fallen to new lows in recent weeks, threatening President Joe Biden’s goal of having 70 percent of American adults with at least one shot by July 4.
With just less than one month from July 4, the current vaccination rate will put the US at somewhere between 67 percent and 68 percent of the adult population with at least one dose（剂量） by Independence Day. To reach 70 percent by July 4, around 1.6 percent of the population needs to get their first dose per week from now until July 4.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention（CDC） reported last week that 63 percent of adults had received their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine. That was up slightly from 62 percent from the report a week before. The additional 1 percent of adults completing their first dose is the lowest since the CDC started tracking the vaccination rate in mid-February.
On average, fewer than 1 million shots are given out per day, a decline of more than two-thirds from the peak of 3.4 million in April, The Washington Post reported. In South Carolina, about 71,000 residents got a shot in the week leading up to June 3, compared to a high of nearly 300,000 in one week in early April, according to data from the CDC.
The slowdown is more prominent across the South and Midwest. Twelve states have seen vaccinations fall to 15 daily shots per 10,000 residents. Less than a quarter of black Americans had received their first COVID-19 shot as of June 7.
James Hildreth, CEO of Meharry Medical College, told Politico, “We need to make a stronger effort to bring the vaccine to the communities, rather than relying on the communities to come to vaccination centers.”
The sharp decline in vaccination began in mid-April when federal officials temporarily stopped the use of the Johnson＆Johnson vaccine while they investigated rare blood-clotting（凝血） reactions.
The “low-hanging fruit—those people who absolutely want to get vaccinated without you telling them anything” have already been vaccinated, which has led to the slowdown, Dr Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said on a White House-organized call with community leaders last week, according to the Post.
【1】What can we learn from the text?
A．Dr Anthony Fauci is in charge of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
B．In South Carolina, about 300,000 residents got a shot in the week leading up to June 3
C．In mid-April federal officials temporarily suspended the Johnson＆Johnson vaccine.
D．Less than one fourth of Americans had received their first COVID-19 shot by June 7.
【2】Which of the following can replace the underlined word “prominent” in Para. 5?
A．Meaningful.
B．Obvious.
C．Inspiring.
D．Complex.
【3】How can America increase the COVID-19 vaccination rate according to James Hildreth?
A．By giving the vaccine shot at the communities.
B．By offering the vaccine to the public for free.
C．By frequently informing the public of the vaccine.
D．By urging the communities to come to vaccination centers.
【4】What can be the best title for the text?
A．Biden wishes to have 70% of adults with one shot by July 4
B．CDC has been tracking the vaccination rate since mid-February
C．Some Americans need to get vaccinated without telling them to
D．Biden’s July 4th vaccine goal may be missed
22、Lizards that once resided in forests but now hang around urban areas of Puerto Rico have genetically morphed (变化) to survive life in the city, researchers have found.
The Puerto Rican crested anole, a brown lizard with a bright orange throat fan, has sprouted special scales (鳞片) to better cling to smooth surfaces such as walls and windows, scientists say. “We are watching evolution as it’s unfolding,” said Kristin Winchel, a biology professor. As urbanization intensifies around the world, it’s important to understand how organisms adapt and humans can design cities in ways that support all species, Winchell said.
The study analyzed 96 Anolis lizards, comparing the genetic makeup of forest-dwellers to those living in Puerto Rico’s capital. Scientists found that 33 genes within the lizard genome were repeatedly associated with urbanization.
“You can hardly get closer to a smoking gun,” said Wouter Halfwerk, an evolutionary ecologist who was not involved in the study. He said he was impressed that the scientists were able to detect such a clear genomic signature of adaptation: “The ultimate goal within the field of urban adaptive evolution is to find evidence for heritable traits and their genomic architecture.”
The changes in these lizards, whose life spans are roughly seven years, can occur quickly, within 30 to 80 generations, enabling them to escape from predators and survive in urban areas, Winchell added. The larger limbs, for example, enable them to run more quickly across a hot parking lot, and the special scales to hold onto surfaces far more smooth than trees.
The study focused on adult male lizards, so it’s unclear whether females are changing in the same way or at the same rate as males, and at which point in a lizard’s life the changes are occurring. Halfwerk, whose own research showed how one frog species changed its mating call in urban areas, said scientists should look next for possible constraints (限制) on the evolutionary response and how morphology relates to mating behavior.
【1】What do researchers find about lizards in the study?
A．Lizards evolve to adapt to the human cities.
B．Lizards are not capable of surviving in the urban areas.
C．Lizards have a negative impact on smooth surfaces of modern buildings.
D．Lizards no longer have natural habitat in forests as a result of urbanization
【2】How did the researchers conduct the study?
A．By analyzing previous research data.
B．By comparing different lizard species.
C．By citing the famous scientists’ words.
D．By studying Anolis lizards in urban and natural areas.
【3】What was Wouter Halfwerk’s attitude towards the study?
A．Favorable.
B．Tolerant.
C．Indifferent.
D．Doubtful.
【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．All frog species have changed its mating call in urban areas.
B．Only adult male lizards evolve to have larger limbs and special scales.
C．Halfwerk will continue to study how morphology relates to mating behavior
D．The future study might focus on the limitations on the evolutionary response.

24、When you garden, you get sunshine, fresh air and exercise. 【1】 . If you do not have enough space, time or money for a large garden, you can try little container gardens.
Pick the right plants. In your containers, you can control the soil and the amount of water, but not the sunlight. 【2】 . Avoid plants that need deep soil. For example, potatoes and carrots are not suitable for container gardening since they need deep soil to grow well.
【3】 . This saves room and some plants may grow better when paired with another plant. However, not all plants grow well together. Some plants have very different water and soil needs. Also, do not grow plants in the same pot if they compete for the same nutrients.
Protect the plants from wind. Wind can damage parts of the plants. It can also dry them out. Choose a location for your garden that has shelter from a building or make your own wind protection. 【4】 .
Water your plants regularly and put the water directly on the soil. It is best to water early in the morning. If you can’t water the plants in the morning, water them in the late afternoon or early evening. 【5】 . The water may dry up too fast and water droplets on leaves can burn them.
A．Get the right type of soil
B．Grow different plants in the same pot
C．Find out which plants can grow in the light conditions you have
D．Try not to water the plants during the hottest part of the day
E．Working with soil and plants can bring health benefits, too
F．Gardening can also produce healthy fruits and vegetables for your family
G．Or grouping plants together can protect your plants from being blown off
