16、s in their work. But for more women on the continent to achieve in science, they need policies that help to lower the barriers to their success and that enhance international collaborations. Women in Africa experience greater barriers to developing careers in science, technology, engineering and mat

17、hematics (STEM) than (22) _ in high-income countries do, with lack of funding a particular problem. Africas researchers badly need long-term, stable investment from internal and external funding sources, including venture capital. In the latest poll, 56% of respondents working in science in Africa c

18、ited a lack of funding as their (23) _ (great)career challenge, and it was the top concern for both men and women. If only Africas governments and the international donor community (24) _ do more to help scientists to realize their ambitions: even modest funding increases might go a long way (25) _

19、accelerating nation-building.Worklife balance is the second-most mentioned concern for women. It is clear (26) _ many of the women have made huge personal sacrifices to obtain their PhDs those who study overseas and are mothers, for example, often spend months at a time away from their children, (27

20、) _ (leave) them in the care of others, such as fathers and grandparents.Moreover, some women have not been promoted as quickly as their male counterparts, (28) _ _ they are publishing at the same rate and bringing in as much research funding and equipment to their institutions as men. The reasons v

21、ary, but include (29) _ (evaluate) according to outdated standard. In that case, international collaboration needs to be more common in helping African women scientists.

When the report came out, it naturally (31) _ headlines. But obviously it did not hijac

24、k the news agenda in the manner of a major terrorist attack or (32) _ of war. The report from the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) is clear on whats at stake and what needs to change. IPBES chair Robert Watson says the “overwhelming evidence” (

25、33) _ an “ ominous (凶兆的)picture”. “The health of ecosystems on which we and all other species depend is (34) _more rapidly than ever,” Robert Watson said. “We are biting the very (35) _of our economies, livelihoods, food security, health and quality of life worldwide.” The report says its not too la

26、te if we make “(36) _ changes” -fundamental, system-wide reorganization - at every level from local to global, we need to focus on how to make that happen.

27、ture will improve our (37) _and personal futures and the only action to respond to a threat of this scale is with (38) _action rooted in optimism. Second, we need focus, just like when rescue teams arrive on a scene and use the concept of “triage(伤员鉴别分类)” to ensure the most (39) _cases get treated f

28、irst. Saving the natural world needs that kind of thinking. We dont have the (40) _to do everything at once. We need to make hard choices. III. Reading ComprehensionSection A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank

29、with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

31、ether its part of a 10-minute period of activity or not.The purpose of the study conducted at the University of Utah was to see if moderate to vigorous physical activity in less than 10-minute episodeswas (45) _to weight outcomes.The study, published in theAmerican Journal of Health Promotion, found

32、 that each minute spent(46) _in some kind of moderate to vigorous physical activity be itwalking the dog, vacuuming, or taking the stairs was associatedwith lower BMI and lower weight.“The idea here is, you can do a minute at a time and thats not a problem,” Jessie Fan, lead author of the new paper

33、and a family and consumer studies professor at the University of Utah,told Today.For the women who participated in the study, each minute spent in higher-intensity activity was associated with a 0.7 drop in body mass index (BMI). For a 54 woman, that means a (47) _ of nearly half a pound, which may

34、not sound like much, but thats just for one minute. Little by little, they add up.The authors concluded that the current 10-minute (48) _guideline was based on health benefits other than weight outcomes and that their findings showed that for weight gain (49) _, accumulated higher-intensity physical

35、 activity bouts of less than 10 minutes are quite(50) _, supporting the message that “every minute counts.”When it comes to your brain, it also rings true. An April 2019 study in Jama Network Open looked at how exercise affected the brain, and even short bursts (51) _22% greater brain volume.“Our st

36、udy results dont(52) _moderate or vigorous physical activity as being important for healthy ageing. We are just adding to the science,(53) _that light-intensity physical activity might be important too, especially for the brain,” Dr. Nicole Spartarno, first author of the study from Boston University

37、 said.“I think its easier for people to (54) _that message,” Fan says. “Otherwise, if they dont have a block of time they might be(55) _, and they dont do anything.”41.A. figuresB.burstsC. turnsD. cheers42.A. wonderB. supposeC. believeD. wish43.A. alerted B. subjectedC. requiredD. committed 44.A. re

41、 partial solution for two of Americans persistent problems: garbage and poverty. Its called the Chip Bag Project. The 26-year-old student and environmentalist from Detroit is asking a favor of local snack lovers: Rather than toss your empty chip bags into the trash, donate them so she can turn them

42、into sleeping bags for the homeless.Chip eaters drop off their empty bags from Doritos, Lays, and other favorites at two locations in Detroit: a print shop and a clothing store, where Oleita and her volunteer helpers collect them. After they sanitize the chip bags in soapy hot water, they slice them

43、 open, lay them flat, and iron them together. They use padding and liners from old coats to line the insides. It takes about four hours to sew a sleeping bag, and each takes around 150 to 300 chip bags, depending on whether theyre single-serve or family size. The result is a sleeping bag that is “wa

44、terproof, lightweight, and easy to carry around,” Oleita told the Detroit News. Since its start in 2020, the Chip Bag Project has collected more than 800,000 chip bags and, as of last December, created 110 sleeping bags. Sure, it would be simpler to raise the money to buy new sleeping bags. But that

45、s only half the goal for Oleitawhose family moved to the United States from Nigeria a decade ago with the hope of attaining a better lifeand her fellow volunteers. They are dedicated to making an impact not only socially, but environmentally,” she says. And, of course, theres the symbolism of salvag

46、ing bags that would otherwise land in the trash and using them to help the homeless. Its a powerful reminder that environmental injustice and poverty often go hand in hand. As Oleita told the media: “I think its time to show connections between all of these issues.”56. What does the Chip Bag Project call on people to do? A. To throw empty chip bags into dustbinsB. To bring empty chip bags to appointed locationsC. To
