Jenner showed that healthy children vaccinated with cowpox, a mild infection of cattle, could not catch smallpox. He was supposedly inspired by a comment from a local milkmaid, but there is evidence that the idea came from a medical friend. John Fester, who had experimented with cowpox. Nevertheless, Jenner deserves credit for introducing vaccination into the medical mainstream with his paper published in 1798.In 1966, 160 years after (he prediction that vaccination would clean off the disease, the World Health Organization launched its Smallpox Eradication Programme. This heroic I -year drive was directed by two American public health doctors, DA Henderson and Bill Forge. Their hardships were enormous: One WHO official even promised to eat a tyre if smallpox was removed: Henderson promised to send him the lyre and wished him good appetite. But Henderson and Foege's hard work paid off-three years after the last smallpox case was informed (to make sure no outbreaks had been missed) Target Zero Day was declared.40 years on, shy should we remember Target Zero Day? First, to celebrate victory of preventative medicine and freedom from a cruel disease. Then, we must remember the victims of smallpox. It had previously killed 1 in 12 worldwide. In 1914, a Canadian professor warned against forgetting smallpox, which was fast disappearing from North America. It went on to kill at least another 250 million people three times more than both world wars combined.

Wildlife such as whales and geese learn migration （迁移） paths by following heir parents. Others, including small songbirds, gain the distance and direction of their migration within their genetic （遗传 的）code. And some animals use a combination of genetics and culture to guide their migration.Another group of migrators does not quite fit either model, and researchers have only recently started to figure out how they find their way. Take the Cory's shearwater, an oceangoing sea bird that migrates over the Atlantic every year. The young do not migrate with their parents, so culture cannot explain their journeys. And the exact paths vary wildly from individual to individual, making genetics equally unlikely.Cory's shearwaters are long-lived, rarely producing young successfully before age nine. TAL#NBSPThis leaves an opening for learning and practice to develop their migration patterns. Researchers call this the "exploration-refinement", and until now it has been hypothetical （假设的） because of difficulties in tracking migratory animals' movements.But a team of researchers has done that by attaching small geolocators to more than 150 of the birds aged four to nine. They found that younger birds traveled longer distances, for longer periods, and had more diverse paths than older birds. "We finally have evidence of the 'exploration-refinement' for migratory birds, " says Letizia Campioni. who led the study. Younger Cory's shearwaters are able to fly just as fast as the adultsbut they do not, suggesting that the young do more exploring, which gradually fades as they mature and settle into a preferred course.Although it may seem less efficient than other strategics, "exploration refinement could be beneficial to birds and other organisms in a rapidly changing world due to unpredictable man-made changes," saysBarbara Frei. "It might be safer to repeat a behavior that was recently successful than to rely on patterns that were perfected long ago but might no longer be safe."(1) The first paragraph mainly .A. describes animals' habitatstalks about migration modelsB. compares different speciesI), introduces a tracking technology(2) What docs the underlined word "his" in paragraph 3 refer to?A. The long life of Cory, s shearwaters.B. The way Cory* s shearwaters form their migration patterns.C. The opening for learning and practice.D. The process scientists track Cory's shearwaters, movements.(3) What does Letizia Campioni's study find about the younger Cory's shearwaters?A. They travel as much as adult birds.B. They move in a predictable manner.C. They lower the speed for exploration.D. They look for a course with their parents.(4) What can we conclude from the last paragraph?A. Man-made changes make migration easier.B. Animals make a safer journey via a fixed track.C. Course exploration contributes to birds' adaptability.D. A combination of strategies assures migration success.二、七选五(本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分)5、【来源】2020年福建厦门高三二模第1620题10分Supporting OthersWe're always being told （hat the secret to happiness lies in helping others. Indeed, it's natural to want to support those we care about, especially if we are in a position to do so. 1When we offer support, it may not always be wanted. 2 In this case, offering support in the manner of "if I were you, 1 would-*-" can feci like a scolding rather than support. If our support feels conditional it can feel burdensome.3 When someone is trying to manage illness or a house move, just saying, "What would help you today? " can be amazingly supportive. Or, suggest what you can do for them: picking up some shopping, taking the dog for a walk. Even if it's not needed, just knowing you've been thought of can be supportive in itself.Try to be mindful of offering support that is disabling, rather than enabling. My son, when aged five, wanted to make a cup of tea. I could see how inspiring it was to him to be able to do this. So I filled the kettle and took him through the safety measures. It felt like a huge risk but it worked. His pleasure was immeasurable. The same principle applies when we offer support that increases someone else's capacity. 4Sometimes the only support that's needed is to listen without judgement. 5 This reassures （使安心）them that someone cares enough to listen while they ground
