Kevin Carroll is one of the world’s leading scientists. Besides his work with people, he has designed prosthetics (假肢) for dogs and even a duck. And now he is working on Winter.
Winter, an Atlantic dolphin, is a playful two-year-old. She was found off the coast of Florida, caught in a trap. When she arrived at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium, CEO David Yates said her condition was serious.
“The first few days, we really didn’t think she’d live at all. 24-hour around-the-clock care was provided by our veterinary (兽医) staff, our animal care staff, and our volunteers who literally watched her every second of the day,” Yates said.
Winter survived, but she lost her tail. Without a tail, she can neither swim as fast nor jump as high as a normal dolphin. “She has had to get used to swimming without a tail. We didn’t know if she could do that,” he said.
Winter’s swimming style changed from up and down to side to side. Veterinarians were concerned that this unusual swimming form might change the long-term health of her spine (脊柱). The vets, therefore, began to explore how to design a prosthetic tail for Winter. Carroll called Winter’s caretakers after he got word of the need for a prosthetic tail, and he offered his services.
Designing a prosthesis for a dolphin was a trickier process than Carroll expected. He said, “With a person, when we fit a prosthesis, we have one long, firm bone. We don’t have to have it moving in every direction. With a dolphin, it needs to move along with her whole spine.” Teaching Winter how to use the prosthetic device (设备) also presents a challenge. Carroll will have to help her to learn how to once again swim up and down like a typical dolphin.
“It’s going to be powerful seeing her coming out of the water with that tail,” Carroll said. “I know she’s going to do it. We’re really looking forward to that.”
24. What can we infer about Winter from Yates’ words?
A. She was slightly hurt. B. She recovered sooner than expected.
C. She failed to receive timely medical care. D. She was treated attentively and watchfully.
25. Why did Carroll decide to offer help?
A. To save Winter’s life.
B. To enable Winter to swim normally.
C. To help Winter get back to water.
D. To assist Winter in adapting to a new environment.
26. What does the underlined word “trickier” in Paragraph 6 mean?
A. Smarter. B. Quicker. C. More difficult. D. More valuable.
27. What is Carroll’s attitude to Winter’s new device?
A. He has high hopes for it. B. He has doubts about it.
C. He is uninterested in it. D. He is thankful for it.
C
Jaguar Land Rover has released new technology designed to constantly monitor drivers and passengers in order to adjust settings to match their mood (情绪). The carmaker has tested a special system which uses a camera to film drivers to monitor their facial expressions.
If the system detects a driver who is stressed, it can automatically turn on calming mood lighting. The car could respond to a driver who was tired by lowering the car’s temperature, or by beginning to play a specific playlist of music. The carmaker has also developed headrest cameras to monitor the facial expressions of passengers. If the cameras detect sleepiness, then the car can automatically dim (使变暗) the passenger lighting to help people go to sleep. Jaguar Land Rover said that the system also uses artificial intelligence to learn people’s preferences, so that it could automatically adjust a car’s settings based on their previous interactions with the car.
Dr Steve Iley, Jaguar Land Rover chief medical officer, said, “As we move towards a self-driving future, the focus for us remains as much on the driver as it ever has.”
“By considering the overall behavior of drivers, and using much of what we’ve learned from the advances in research around personal well-being over the last 10 or 15 years, we can make sure our customers remain comfortable, involved and alert behind the wheel in all driving situations, even motorway journeys.”
The system is still being developed and is not yet available in cars, Jaguar Land Rover said.
In 2015, the company released a similar system which monitors drivers to detect signs of sleepiness. The system is now in use in Jaguar cars, and alerts drivers when they become too sleepy.
28. What is Jaguar Land Rover’s new invention?
A. An automatically adjusted headrest. B. An intelligent alarm system.
C. A mood-detection system. D. A self-driving car.
29. How is Paragraph 2 developed?
A. By giving examples. B. By making comparisons.
C. By following time order. D. By analyzing cause and effect.
30. What does Dr Steve Iley think about the new invention?
A. It is customer-friendly. B. It is environmentally friendly.
C. It fails to meet drivers’ need. D. It should focus greatly on passengers.
31. What is the present situation of the new invention?
A. It has already been banned. B. It is doubted by customers.
C. It still needs to be improved. D. It is widely used in Jaguar cars.
D
When we buy something new, we get rid of what’s old. That cycle of consumption has made electronics waste the world’s fastest-growing solid-waste stream, which is expected to grow as the world upgrades to 5G.
While promising faster speeds and other benefits, 5G will result in a dramatic increase in e-waste. That’s good business for ERI, which charges customers to collect their electronics and to securely wipe their data. But less than a quarter of U. S. electronic waste is recycled, the rest ending up as rubbish, posing environmental risks.
Part of the problem concerns regulation (法规). In states without laws banning electronics from the regular trash, electronics often end up in garbage and recycling bins. Even when e-waste rules exist, it’s left to consumers to handle their old devices properly. But recycling them can be a pain. Rather than drop a used phone in a bin, lots of people have to take their electronics to a store, which may pay them for it or charge them to get rid of it. Many consumers simply throw their devices into the trash or throw them in a drawer.
One solution is to make electronics last as long as they once did. Yet, technology companies are speeding the pace of being deserted. “It’s a strategy by producers to force us into shorter upgrade cycles,” said Kyle Wiens, the founder of iFixit, which publishes do-it-yourself repair guides.
Some environmental groups say big companies like Apple and Samsung should pick up the cost of recycling the devices they sell. Lawmakers have passed Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws, which require pro¬ducers to establish and fund systems to recycle or collect abandoned products.
Some companies are increasing their recycling efforts on their own. For instance, Apple in 2018 introduced Daisy, a smartphone-recycling robot that can take apart 200 iPhones every hour. But that’s a drop in the bucket compared with the 50 million tons of e-waste generated globally last year.
32. What’s the problem 5G technology will cause?
A. Failure in some traditional business.
B. Faster and shorter cycle of electronics.
C. Many electronics ending up as waste.
D. Added cost to recycling old electronics.
33. How does Kyle Wiens view the act of technology companies?
A. They design to shorten the life cycle of products.
B. They struggle to provide goods with good quality.
C. They have a short life cycle because of the market.
D. They are trying to collect their abandoned products.
34. What’s the duty that Daisy performs daily?
A. Funding to collect abandoned iPhones. B. Guiding people on do-it-yourself repair.
C. Checking environmental risks of phones. D. Taking apart smartphones automatically.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Choice for Recycled Smartphones B. Dealing with the Mountain of E-waste
C. Bad Effect of 5G on the Environment D. Apple on Its Duty for Nature Protection

Is Society Too Dependent On Technology?
Just think, what would happen if your computer, iPad or laptop crashed today? What if someone took away your phone for some days or perhaps you lost it? If thinking about these incidences makes you stressed, you are not alone. 36
Most of us cannot go for a minute without looking at our phones and the fear of the battery dying is huge. If you happen to work in offices you may be familiar with this trend. 37 Anyway, it’s true. How can work continue if it’s hard to send an email to a colleague or customer? This is common in almost all offices.
38 Those evening games after school are over; watching cartoons on a Sunday or playing with friends are no longer there. Today, most kids remain indoors playing computer games or with a smart phone. Technology has taken all their time.
Society may have gone too far in technology dependence. It has become so huge that doctors have recommended for “technology detox”. 39 If not, according to Oxford Dictionary, Technology Detox is a period during which an individual avoids using any electronic devices including computers, smart phones, etc., as a chance to reduce stress and focus on social interaction in the outside world.
Well, the choice remains in our hands. We must agree that society is being carried away by the increased inventions being introduced in our lives today. 40 Meanwhile, we should have the discipline to turn it off when we are supposed to experience life in reality.
A. Perhaps you may have heard of it.
B. We appreciate technology since it has its benefits.
C. If the Internet is down, all the tasks are over for the day.
D. Technology addiction is sure to cause social problems.
E. Today, most people are becoming dependent on technology.
F. Here are some signs that our generation depends too much on technology.
G. Kids used to spend a lot of time with each other or parents playing or just sharing stories.

To many Chinese，playing traditional Chinese musical 56 (instrument)，such as the guzheng or erhu, may seem a bit old-fashioned. But there are musicians who take these instruments and combine them 57 modern sounds.
One of these artists 58 (be) Brad Seippel. He is a 33-year-old music producer from the US city of New Orleans.
Seippel 59 (play) music since he was just 12 years old. But it was not until he was 24 and living in China 60 he learned to play the pipa.
“When I was young，my father encouraged me to play the bass guitar. A bass guitar has four strings，and so 61 (do) the pipa, so for me it was natural,” he said.
Seippel’s music is 62 (main) electronic and sounds quite modern. But the pipa lets him add 63 unique element to his music.
Chinese musicians are bringing back 64 (tradition) music as well. Nine Treasures is a heavy metal band from Inner Mongolia. They use Mongolian throat-singing (呼麦) and a horsehead fiddle to add a folk flavor to 65 rock songs. I’ve seen them live many times myself—it is truly a powerful mix.

We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude.
Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. Kind and caring, she always seemed to make people comfortable in her presence. For years she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home to help with her until I hit my preteen years. Suddenly, I was too caught up in my adolescent world to worry about helping others.
One particular summer day when I was twelve, Mom came into my room and told me to get up and meet her at the car. I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything? Eventually, I made my way outside. I imagined the lake water cooling my skin. Annoyed, I climbed into the car and slammed the door shut. I sat in silence, too upset to make a conversation.
“Tasha, would you like to know where we are going?” Mom asked calmly.
“I guess. . . ” I murmured under my breath.
“Sweetheart, we are going to a children’s shelter. I have been there before and I think it would benefit you,” she explained.
I felt a knot slowly form in my stomach. How was I supposed to help there?
When we reached the shelter, I was rather surprised. It was a large white Victorian home. As we approached the large front porch, wind bells played a calming tune while trees and blossoms welcomed us. Maybe this wasn’t going to be so bad.
Mom rang the doorbell. The door flew open and we were led to the front room, where all of the children were playing. Toys were spread out across the floor. I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with wounds. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars (伤疤) such as cuts and burns. What a terrible life they had had before they moved here! My heart sank.

Dear Peter,
I’m glad to hear from you. I’m writing to tell you how our school is now going on.
Actually, we are having e-learning at home, studying in the “classroom in the air” all the subjects. The schedule runs from 8:00 am till 4:30 pm on workday, with more and longer breaks for rest than usual.
Personally, I’ve got used to online learning, which I think is a creative form of schooling. But I really miss the days on campus. That’s why I pray for the complete end of the epidemic, and I believe we will return to school soon.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua

Para1：As I was looking around, I felt a gentle pull on my shirt. I looked down to see a little girl with brown eyes looking up at me. I could see there were some scar on her little arms. “Hi. I’m Ashley. You wanna play dolts with me?” she asked. I looked over and saw Mom nodding to me with a smile. I bent toward Ashley and whispered, “Sure. I’d love to.” Her tiny hand reached up and took mine, and we walked toward the doll house. Our time together brought her great joy and fun and she also made my day.
Para 2: I returned to the shelter with Mom several times. During those visits, some of the children including Ashley shared their troubled pasts with me.

M: I just started taking a photography class, and my first assignment is to take photos of my family. Can I take some photos of you right now, or are you busy? (6)

M: The pictures are supposed to be natural. Please?
W: Okay, fine. Do I have to do anything?
M: No, just act like I’m not here.

M: What do you think about pets?
W: Dogs are OK, I guess. But I’d have to say that I’m a cat person. (8) And I’m definitely not a bird person. And…
M: No, I mean, do you think pets are a good idea?
W: Oh! Yes, of course.
M: Why?
W: A pet will always be your best friend.
M: But pets are a lot of work, don’t you think? (9)
W: That’s true. It can be a lot of work to take care of them.
M: My friend has a daughter and he is thinking about buying a pet for her.
W: Oh, that is a great idea. Taking care of a pet will teach her responsibility.

W: No problem, Mr. Bernelli. Please take a seat and fill out these forms. We’ll call you in a few minutes.
M: These are the same forms I filled out last week. Do I have to fill them all out again?

M: Excuse me. May I have some information about the party you’re advertising outside?
W: Well, the party will provide students with a chance to get to know each other. It’s also a chance for the seniors to share their experience with new students to help them graduate successfully. (13)
M: Who’s organizing the event, our department or the whole college? (14)
W: Actually, it is the student union. (14)
M: I hope we don’t have to sit through a lot of boring speeches by some professors. Will we have any time for some fun at this party? (15)
W: Most of the time will be for eating, dancing, and singing, so don’t worry. However, some words from former students should not be missed. And besides that, there’s another reason to go: the pie there will be delicious. I know since I’m the one who will be making it. (16) You will love it if you taste it. It’s even better than those bought from the store.
M: OK, thank you very much.

Hello, and welcome to today’s BBC evening news radio. Our top story is a sad one. Sparky, the famous fire department dog, died today in the line of duty. Sparky and his human partner Joel were walking down Maple Street when they spotted a building on fire. Joel and Sparky ran to the building to help. Joel heard the cries of a woman inside the building, (17) so he ran inside to save her. Sparky followed Joel into the building. Joel could hear the woman crying, but he couldn’t find her because of all the smoke from the fire. (18) It was Sparky who was finally able to find the woman. Sparky led Joel and the woman out, (20) but Sparky suddenly ran back into the building. The fire was too hot for Joel to go back inside, (19) and he shouted at Sparky to come back. A few moments later, Sparky came out of the building pulling something behind him. It was a baby. (20) Sparky was able to save the baby’s life, but the furry hero died from serious injuries just after coming out of the burning building. The whole neighborhood is expected to come to Sparky’s memorial service to be held tomorrow morning.
