It's part of a wider possibility across the insect group. In 2017, scientists in Germany raised alarm bells after finding that insects had fallen by more than 70% in 30 years.For farmers, monarch butterflies pollinate (授粉)a very large percentage of food crops. It is very important t protect them because their disappearance could have a huge economic influence. Butterflies are also helpftil in the coal mine for other insects, as it is easier for them to feel the environmental change, and relatively easy to record.Leading environmental organizations have been working hard to find new ways of recording the number of butterflies. As of now, there is no long-term data to develop good protection methods. The scientists wanted to address the challenge that long term recording programs worldwide have faced: they are focusing on training locals as insect experts, which requires much money. They came up with a new method to the problem. In Yasuni National Park, they hired park rangers (护林员)who were trained and then carried out recording. The rangers were able to recognize butterflies with an 85% success rate, which is important fbr these kinds of recording programs to be succcssfiil.Compared with other recording projects, this study represents a long-term solution. t4Our method increases the chance of recording in the long term by reducing the money spent on itsuch as wages,“ said lead author Maria Checa. "Furthermore, it also offers opportunities for public organizations to achieve their environmental goals.”8.

IIow are butterflies different from other insects in feeling the environmental change?A.They arc quicker.B.They arc lazier.C.They are slower.D.They are more inactive.10. What does the underlined word “address“ in paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Discover.B. Solve.C. Invent.D.Balance.11. What's Maria Checa's attitude towards the new method?A.Uncaring.B. Disapproving.C. Positive.D.Doubtful.Charles Darwin's notebooks were first reported missing to the public in 2020. An anonymous (匿名的)person has returned Darwin's two notebooks to the Cambridge University library.

Objects like these help with our understanding of the history of humans,“ said Stephen Toopc, a professor at Cambridge.The library said the notebooks were first removed in 2000 from the Special Collections Strong Rooms, home to the rarest and most valuable things. A usual check in January 200 i found that the small box having the notebooks was not returned to its right place, After a number of searches throughout the library over the years, the notebooks were not found. Gardner arranged a more careful search in 2020, led by experts who conducted fingertip examinations. The team searched the whole Darwin Archive, which includes more than 180 boxes. After these efforts failed, they had the result that the notebooks had been stolen.试卷第4页,共9页Local police are pleased that the notebooks have finally been found.44We share the university's delight that these priceless notebooks are now back where they belong," a Cambridge police spokesman said. t4Our investigation (调查)remains open and we are following up some lines of questions.12.
