15、borhood, Carl Allamby and his five brothers and sisters were raised by their stay-at-home mother and a father who sold home goods door-to-door. He faced low expectations and numerous barriers to pursuing his dream. His school didnt offer the advanced science classes that might have led him on a prem
16、ed (医学预科班) path, so he set aside thoughts of becoming a doctor.He had started it at the age of 19, working alone out of a rented bay in a friends garage. Over the years, it had grown into two shops with 11 employees, but Allamby had become anxious, longing for something more. So at the age of 34, he
17、 decided to go for his bachelors degree in business management. After taking classes part-time over the next five years, Allamby was told he had to take biology to get his degree. Biology class awakened a childhood dream within himself. With the support of his wife and family, he soon decided to ski
18、p business school in favor of the science classes hed need for a second career as a health-care worker. Becoming a doctor when he would be approaching the age of 50 was clearly crazy. He would instead become a nurse or a physician assistant like his wife, he thought. But Allambys chemistry professor
19、 encouraged him to pursue his dream to be a doctor.And so in 2015, Allamby started at Northeast Ohio Medical University. In 2019, at the age of 47, Carl Allamby became Carl Allamby, MDNow Allamby is a second-year resident. “How many people can do something so brand-new and have so much stimulation a
20、nd responsibility at such a late stage in their life?” he says, “I am told that I shouldnt be a doctor. Whether its because of my age, my race, my upbringing, or my past career, these are all good reasons why I shouldnt be here. And yet, here I am.”24What made Carl fail to become a doctor when he wa
21、s young?ANo social barriers.BParents being jobless.CHigh expectations from his parents.DNo advanced science classes in his school.25What awakened Carls childhood dream?AChemistry class.BBusiness class.CBiology class.DHis professors encouragement.26Why did Carl skip business school?ATo attend science
22、 classes.BTo manage his shops.CTo take part-time classes.DTo support his family.27Which of the following can best describe Carl?ACaring.BDeterminedCHonest.DGood-tempered.For centuries, fishers in Narrangansett have fished in the waters of the northwestern Atlantic for herrings (鲱鱼). But as climate c
23、hange warms the worlds seas, the herrings are disappearing at the southern end of their range and turning up more often at its northern edges. A study shows that concentrations of marine (海洋的) species populations have been shifting away from the equator (赤道) and toward the poles during the course of
24、 the past century. These movements could wreak havoc on food webs and endanger the livelihoods (生计) of fishers. The tropical (热带的) water at the equator is well-known for having the richest diversity of marine life on Earth. The number of marine species naturally decreases gradually as you head towar
25、ds the poles. Ecologists have assumed this global pattern has remained stable over recent centuries until now. Our recent study found the ocean around the equator has already become too hot for many species to survive, and that global warming is responsible. And as species flee to cooler water towar
26、ds the poles, its likely to have deep impacts on marine ecosystems. Losing species in tropical ecosystems means ecological adaptation to environmental changes is reduced, potentially damage ecosystem persistence. In subtropical ecosystems, species richness is increasing. This means therell be specie
27、s invaders, and new competitive relationships. This could result in ecosystem collapse in which species go extinct and ecosystem services (such as food supplies) are permanently changed.One way is to reduce our emissions aggressively. Other opportunities could also help safeguard biodiversity and ho
28、pefully minimize the worst impacts of it shifting away from the equator. Designing climate-smart reserves could further protect biodiversity from future changes. For example, reserves for marine life could be placed where the climate will be stable over the foreseeable future. We should take action
29、without delay.28What does the underlined phrase “wreak havoc on” probably mean in Paragraph 1?AClarifyBClassify.CDestroy.DPurify.29What can be learnt from the second paragraph?ASome species move to water in lower temperature.BMore marine species exist at the poles than the equator.CThe subtropical w
30、ater has the most diverse marine species.DThe global pattern of the ecosystem remains unchanged now.30What is the main idea of the third paragraph?AThe increase of species in subtropical ecosystem.BThe decline of ecological changes in the ocean.CThe temporary changes in ecosystem services.DThe effec
31、ts of species immigration on marine ecosystem.31What is the authors purpose in writing this article?ATo inform readers of the reduction of marine species.BTo appeal to readers to protect marine biodiversity.CTo predict the future of the marine ecosystem.DTo explain the reasons for global warming.Art
32、ificial intelligence (AI) might be able to spot the next virus to jump from animals to humans, Scottish researchers report.Identifying diseases before they become a threat to humans is challenging, because only a few of the nearly 2 million animal viruses can infect humans. By developing machine lea
33、rning models, researchers can analyze genetic patterns of viruses that might infect people. “Our findings show that the zoonotic (动物传染人的) potential of viruses can be inferred to a surprisingly large extent from their genome sequence (基因组序列).” the researchers at the University of Glasgow reported. “B
34、y highlighting viruses with the greatest potential to become zoonotic, genome-based ranking allows further ecological and virological characterization to be targeted more effectively.”The researchers said the models are only a first step in identifying animal viruses with the potential to infect hum
35、ans, however. Viruses flagged by the models will need laboratory test confirmation before researchers pursue funding for further study. Although these models may predict if viruses might infect humans, thats only one part of the broader risk. Zoonotic risk is also influenced by how destructive a vir
36、us is in humans, as well as its ability to transmit between people, and ecological conditions at the time of human exposure.The findings were published online in the journal PLoS Biology. Co-author Simon Babayan saidthese findingsadd important information to that collected from genetic sequencing of
37、 viruses using AI techniques. “The more viruses are characterized, the more effective our machine learning models will become at identifying the rare viruses that ought to be closely monitored and prioritized for vaccine development.” Babayan added.32What is the significance of genome-based ranking?
38、ATo identify viruses which have threatened humans.BTo discover human viruses that can infect animals.CTo highlight viruses with the slightest chances to become zoonotic.DTo target ecological and virological characterization more effectively.33What can be inferred from the third paragraph?AThe fund f
39、or further study has been put in place.BThere is still a long way to go for AI models to function ideally.CViruses flagged by the models have been confirmed by researchers.DViruses transmission ability is the most influential factor for zoonotic risk.34What is Simon Bybayans attitude towards the fin
40、dings?APositive.BAmbiguous.CIndifferent.DDoubtful.35What is the best title for this text?AAI Models Spot Various Viruses in Nature.BAI Models Monitor Vaccine Development.CAI Models Predict Potential Zoonotic Viruses.DAI Models Cure Potential Zoonotic Diseases.五、七选五Five years ago, my husband and I bo
41、ught a former farm. Its a short ride from our Vancouver home but a world away. As we restore the land, I feel my well-being returning, but I think the farm is also working its magic on our sons growing resilience (适应能力). Since Dev was 20, he has lived with mental illness. We have been on this journe
42、y with him from crisis to recovery. _36_ We found the farm. It has taken a couple of years to clear the land, seed the lawn (草坪) and build garden beds. But we did it even as other parts of our life had come undone. The farm was holding our family together. We come over on weekends and holidays and h
43、ave been planting. _37_Before he went to treatment, we planted a “guild” in the old apple farm. _38_ We dug around the weaker trees and placed in garlic, wildflowers and bone meal. It keeps the moisture (水分) and nutrients in, and the garden seems to thrive (茁壮成长) as a result._39_ The land needed cle
44、aring, and Doug, our workman, worked steadily and helped whenever I asked. Asking for help is a principle in the recovery community, a lesson my son is learning. It truly does take a village to restore a farm and rebuild a life.The desire to recover this land has grown in me. _40_ Hes found his own
45、kind of guild that supports him. Owning a farm was never our plan but it came when our family needed a meaningful project. When my hands are in the dirt, I remember that intervention (干预) is necessary and so is allowing nature to take its course. Digging is an act of faith, hope and anticipation of
46、what will appear next.AWe helped ourselves by helping others.BWe also learned how to depend on others.CMy son had great difficulty making a recovery.DI have seen this drive toward restoration in my son as well.EJust when it couldnt get any worse, an unexpected light occurred.FDuring this time, Dev i
