2.Animal rescuer and cinematographer Douglas Thorn's passion for animals began when he was a little kid. "I started rescuing orphaned baby animals," Thron says. "And I wanted to be a wildlife cinematographer. "
When Thron grew up,he did just that,working for shows like Discovery Channel's Shark Week,filming the great white sharks off the coast of Santa Cruz,California.But Thron says it was the Paradise Fire in California in 2018 that "pushed" him to do animal rescue activism work,putting his aerial cinematography skills to good use.
At the time,Thron was filming a man who was rescuing cats after the fire using an infrared(紅外線)hand-held camera.The camera uses heat to detect the animals at night.Thron and the man talked about how incredible it would be to put one on a drone(無人機)to detect animals more easily. "The animal's body temperature will glow on the screen and you can pick them out among the bricks and stones, " explains Thron.
The first animal Thron ever rescued was n dog in the Bahamas after a category-5 hurricane hit,which wiped out hundreds of houses.Thron tested out putting an infrared scope on a drone and found the dog.
"The drone really shaves off critical time so that the really badly hurt animals are able to be rescued. " Thron says.Once the scope picks up the "heat signature of an animal",Thron turns a spotlight on the animal and zooms in on it,so he and the rescue crews can go and save the animal.
Thron has basically been "going non-stop since then".His TV show,Doug to the Rescue,shows some of his heart-warming animal rescues,including after Hurricane Laura in Louisiana in 2020 and after fires in Northern California and Oregon.Thron also helped rescue koalas after fires damaged parts of Australia in 2020.
(1)What does the underlined word "that" in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Researching rare animals.
B.Rescuing homeless animals.
C.Becoming a disaster rescuer.
D.Working as a cinematographer.
(2)What's Thron's purpose for attaching the infrared camera to the drone?
A.To locate an animal quickly.
B.To shoot more inviting photos.
C.To take animals' body temperature.
D.To give warnings of dangers timely.
(3)What's the fifth paragraph mainly about?
A.The difficulties Thron has to overcome.
B.The skills Thron will need to operate the drone.
C.The way Thron uses the drone to rescue animals.
D.The reason why Thron chooses his present job.
(4)According to the passage,which word can best describe Thron?

3.To fight against the ballooning waistlines among people,several U.S.jye.ai have instituted taxes on drinks with added sugar aiming to reduce consumption,but new research suggests these policies currently have one fundamental flaw.
The study found sugary drink taxes only reduce purchasing if price tags (標(biāo)簽) at stores mention consumers are paying that tax when they buy the drink.
The research included a field study at two convenience stores in San Francisco,which currently has a tax on sugary drinks of I cent per ounce.Researchers varied the price tags placed on the sugary drinks over the eight-week study:one tag that simply said the price for the 12-ounce drink (﹩1.52)and one that had the price and the message "Includes SF Sugary Drink Tax".All non-sugary drinks,which weren't subject to the tax,simply had the price of the drink (﹩1.40).
The researchers compared sales of the drinks during the study period to the two weeks before the study began when the sugary drink tax was in effect but there were no price tags on any drinks.Results showed sales of sugary drinks weren't lower during the two weeks,compared to sales before the tax,indicating the tax itself didn't reduce purchases of sugary drinks.
The researchers then looked at the effects of the two different price tags.Results showed the share of sugary drinks purchased when the tags simply showed the price wasn't significantly different from the two-week period before the study,but did decline slightly when the tags mentioned the price included the added tax.
In a separate online study,the researchers asked participants to estimate what the tax would be on a can of their favorite drink that cost﹩1.52.The average estimate was 40 cents-much higher than the 12 cents actually demanded in San Francisco.When told the tax was only 12 cents,they reported they'd still purchase the drink.
The findings suggest price tags should mention the tax but not the amount,for consumers tend to overestimate how much the tax is. "If cities want these policies to be effective,they need to regulate how sugary drinks are labeled at stores and they currently don't do that, " said Donnelly,lead author of the study.
(1)What does the underlined word "flaw" mean in the first paragraph?
A.Weakness.
B.Solution.
C.Imbalance.
D.Evidence.
(2)What kind of price tags may discourage customers from buying sugary drinks?
A.Price tags bearing sugar content.
B.Price tags with the exact tax on them.
C.Price tags saying added tax included.
D.Price tags just showing the total price.
(3)Which of the following may be Donnelly's suggestion?
A.Stores label sugary drinks at will.
B.Cancel sugary drink taxes at once.
C.Publicize the impacts of sugary drinks.
D.Cities urge stores to use proper price tags.
(4)What might be the best title for the text?
A.A New Way to Prevent Fatness
B.Eating Habits and Food Consumption
C.Sugary Drink Taxes Aren't Working Well
D.Non-sugary Drinkers Benefit from New Policies組卷:5引用:1難度:0.4

9.閱讀下面材料,根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段,使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
The icy wind howled across the empty street and it was an unusually quiet day in the emergency room on December 25th.Quiet,that is,except for the nurses who were standing around the nurses' station complaining about having to work on Christmas Day.
I was a guiding nurse that day and had just done the cleanup in the waiting room.Since there were no patients waiting to be seen at the time,I returned to the nurses' station for a cup of hot coffee that someone had brought in for Christmas.Just then,a colleague came in and told me I had five patients waiting to be evaluated.
I was surprised, "Five?How did I get five?I was just out there and no one was in the waiting room."
"Well,there are five signed in. "
So I went straight out and called the first name.Five bodies showed up at my guiding desk,a pale short woman and four small children in untidy clothing.
"Are you all sick?" I asked. "Yes, " she said weakly and lowered her head.
"Okay, " I replied. "Who's first?" One by one they sat down,and I asked the usual beginning questions.When it came to the description of their symptoms,things got a little vague(含糊的).Two of the children had headaches,but the headaches weren't accompanied by the normal body language of holding the head or trying to keep it still.Two children had headaches,but only one could tell me which ear was affected.The mother complained of a cough,but seemed to work to produce it.
Something was wrong with the picture.Suddenly I knew jye.aimething.So I explained to the mother that it might be a little while before a doctor saw her because there were several more critical patients.jye.ai responded, "Take your time.It's warm here and there is a Christmas tree."
注意:續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為 150 左右。
Then the mother turned and,with a smile,settled her kids in the waiting room._____________
My colleagues,complaining about working Christmas,turned to sympathy for the homeless family._____________組卷:6引用:1難度:0.5
