Like the tiger, the American burying beetle has orange and black stripes(条纹);like the tiger, the beetle is declining in number. The tiger is an instantly recognizable symbol of species preservation, but most people aren't familiar with the beetle.答案:1.;2.3.;5.5.;6.7.;8.This difference is an example of the domination of the so-called celebrity species一the fascinating creatures that nonprofits and government agencies use to raise public interest in conservation. Most nonprofit funds for animal protection go to species such as apes, elephants, big cats, rhinoceroses, and giant pandas. Tigers are often rated the most popular animaland India, home to the majority of these big cats, spent more than 49 million on tiger conservation alone in 2019. Meanwhile, many lesser known species of fish, reptiles, amphibians, and birds weaken in namelessness. Worldwide, more than 35, 500 plant and animal species are on the edge of disappearing forever.This leaves us with a tough situation. Conservation is underfunded, so how do we decide which species to save?One potential solution, the debatable idea of conservation triage(检伤分类),holds that experts need to quickly decide which species can be saved while realizing that others can't be saved. Conservationists have developed analytical tools to approach the question in a less emotional, more practical way. Fish and Wildlife Service now uses this knapsack (背包)methodinspired by a hiker's need to fit the most valuable items into a small space-to get the “most bang fbr their buck“ in saving species. The method calculates the most efficient conservation strategies using factors such as costs to recover a species and its likelihood of going extinct.8. What does the first paragraph serve to the whole passage?A. To propose a definition B. To introduce the topicC. To reach a conclusion D. To present an argument9. What is the author's attitude to the lesser known species?A. Concerned. B. Unclear.C. OptimisticD. Indifferent.10. What does the underlined part in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Damage to the environment. B Hard work for a goal.C. Best value for money. D. Most fun from the hike.11. What will the author probably talk about in the following paragraph?A. Causes of some animals9 endangerment.B Other methods of deciding which species to save.C. The authorities9 role in reasonable use of funds.D. An appeal to save the American burying beetle.Passage 2 ( 2023届江西省南昌市高三零模英语试题)Tina Leverton was 62 when she bought her first pair of ballet shoes. She said putting her feet into the soft leather was very emotional. She said: 'Tve waited a long time fbr it.”A few days later, Leverton took her first ballet class after seeing an advertisement in a newspaper. It showed older women dancing in a class near Leverton's house. “As I came in the door, I found a big smile on my face. From the minute I started, I felt like coming home.”Leverton had longed to dance as a child. Sadly, her parents couldn't afford ballet classes, for they were first-generation Indian immigrants, struggling to make a living in the UK. Her father was a train driver on the underground in London and her mother held two cleaning jobs. Nonetheless, she harboured her dream of being a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员).At her present age, a grand plie-lowering to the floor with bent knees-seemed to be out of the question. It took her three months to master the move: leaping and landing on one foot. love the struggle and the challenge of learning something new. People in their 60s have a lot of self-limiting beliefs: I can't do it/ 'I'm not good enough/And maybe they9re not good enough. But it doesn't matter,she said.Ballet has been transformative. At a medical appointment a few months after Leverton's first class, a nurse measured her at 163cm, half an inch taller than she had thought. She attributes (归因)the difference to improved posture. Her muscle tone has improved and her lower back pain has stopped. Dancing has also brought new friends.

At a long table inside a restaurant, some young people sit together over lunch. There is less conversation than you might expect from a typical group of friends: a boy seems to talk only to himself, and a girl looks anxious.These young people met through a program organized by the nonprofit Actionplay, where young people with autism work together to write and stage a musical. Each Sunday, they work and have lunch together. "You meet other people just like you,“ says Lexi SpindeL "That was the first time my daughter had a friend,“ says Lexi's father. "That never happened before Actionplay.”For decades, scientists have supposed people with autism don't have or need friends. A new research is forcing a rethink of those long-held beliefs. Autistic people report they want friends. One significant barrier to friendships is common people's opinion that autistic people are not interested in connecting with them. Appearing uninterested, however, is not always the same as being uninterested. An autistic child looking uninterested in games may in fact be overcome by the noise. And behaviors like clapping hands repeatedly are a way to manage their anxiety and uncertainty, not a sign of their low social interest.For some autistic people, friendships develop through experimental programs. In a program Lerner developed, participants play a game called Gibberish, where teenagers must interpret each other9s intentions without using real language. The point is not to get it right, but to attend to what the other person is doing in a way that creates opportunities to connect.Lerner's ideas were inspired by a moment 16 years ago after he established a small camp fbr children with autism called Spotlight. On the second day an 11 -year-old boy ran up and pulled his clothes. “Lerner, Lerner, where did you find these kids?”“All over the place J Lerner answered. "Everyone wants to come to camp, just like you.”“This is the first normal group of kids I have never met." the boy said.12. The scene in paragraph 1 is described to.A. reveal the lack of an interpersonal conversationB prove the difficulty in reducing teenage anxietyC stress the great necessity of forming friendshipsD. show the different behavior of a particular group13. What is Actionplay aimed at?A. Curing young people of autism. B. Developing autistic people's taste in art.C. Offering autistic people a social platform. D. Improving young people's family relationship.14. What can we infer from paragraph 3?A. Autistic people have no intention to make friends.B. Noise sets barriers to autistic people's views on games.C. Repetitive movements make autistic people feel secure.D. Common beliefs cause autistic people's low social interest.15 . What does the underlined sentence imply?A. He feels at ease with his autistic fellows.B. He no longer regards himself as an autistic kid.C. Lerner's guidance helps him get out of autism.D. Autistic kids don't long to socialize with normal ones.Passage 4 (2023届浙江省杭州第二中学新高三上学期适应性测试英语试题)Although it is a business not many are aware of, sidewalk robots are set to become an industry with annual sales of $Ibn within a decade, reckons IDTechEx, a British firm of analysts. These four-or six-wheeled autonomous machines, usually the size of a suitcase, are already delivering groceries and other goods in America, China and Europe.That puts them ahead of many driverless cars, vans and lorries being developed. Those bigger vehicles are held back not by technology but regulation, says Zehao Li of IDTechEx. So having a "safety driver" on board ready to take over if there is a problem, which is hardly labor-saving.For these larger contraptions regulators want to see safety systems thoroughly proved. But there are legal hurdles, too. In January Britain's Law Commission, which reviews legislation, recommended that it should not be the person in the driver's seat who faces prosecution if a vehicle in autonomous mode crashes, but the manufacturer or body that sought approval for its use.Meanwhile, sidewalk robots are getting on with the job. Among them, Star ship Technologies, based in San Francisco, reckons it has already clocked up more than 2.5m deliveries with bots in a number of cities, university campuses and business parks in Europe and America. Amazon is carrying out trials with a similar sort of machine it calls Scout. Kiwibot, a Colombian startup, is making sidewalk deliveries in California.Typically, these robots carry a few bags of groceries using a variety of sensors, including cameras, radar and GPS to navigate and avoid obstacles and people. Their progress can be monitored on a phone app, which also unlocks them for goods to be retrieved. As they are small, move slowly (Starship's bots might reach a heady 6kph) and are “telemonitored" by people in a control room who can take over, authorities seem more willing to give them a green light.Such robots are also becoming more autonomous. In January Serve Robotics, another San Franciscan firm whose backers include Uber, a ride-hailing giant, said it had deployed a new sidewalk bot with "level4"autonomy, which means it can operate without telemonitoring in some predesignated areas.Robotic versions which operate on roads but have no driver's cab are also appearing. Nuro, a Silicon Valley firm, makes one about the size of a small car that can carry 24 bags of groceries. It has chilled and heated compartments for food and drinks. Further along the road in earning their keep, these delivery bots are helping to pave the way for the time when bigger autonomous vehicles can join them.8 . What can we learn from paragraph one?A. Sidewalk robots are portable like a suitcase.B In the past decade, Ibn dollars have been invested into industry.C. The delivery industries of the US, China and Europe are dependent on sidewalk robots.D. The industry of sidewalk robot is expanding unknowingly.9. According to the passage, who should be responsible for automatic driving car accidents?A. Safety drivers seated in the driver's seat.B Every passenger except the driver.C. Organizations supportive of autonomous mode.D. Manufacturers and bodies seeking approval for using safety drivers.10. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph four mean?A. reached B. designedC. boughtD. invented11. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. Amazon is using Scout to deliver groceries for people.B. If groceries are wrongly delivered, robots can take them back.C. Some robots may deliver groceries with no one telemonitoring them.D. Both cold and hot food can be preserved inside a sidewalk robot developed by Nuro.Passage 5(北京市第八十中学2022-2023学年高三上学期10月月考英语试题)When Kirk Alexander went missing for 11 days, an unlikely savior came to his rescue: his neighborhood pizza store.Almost every night for more than ten years, Kirk Alexander, 48, of Salem, Oregon ordered a late dinner from his local Domino's pizza store. He had no signature order. Sometimes he would call for a salad, sometimes a pie, sometimes chicken wings. The only sure thing for the staff of the Silverton Road Domino's was that they would see Alexander's name show up on their online ordering site sometime between 11 p. m. and midnight several times a week.Until suddenly, for nearly two weeks at the end of April 2016, they didn't.It was a slow Saturday night on May 7th when Domino's general manager Sarah Fuller felt she could no longer ignore Alexander's recent absence.“I went and looked up to see how long it had been since he last ordered,“ Fuller told KATU com. "It was 11 days, which was not like him at all.”Fuller knew Alexander worked from home, and neighbors said he rarely left. She also knew that he had suffered some health issues in the past.
