Down there, its normal to happen on unheard-of never-seen-before animals and their interesting behavior. Sometimes, sources for precious new medicines are collectedand many more are almost cer
16、tainly waiting to be discovered.What marine scientists didnt expect to find, however, was a three-foot-long tusk (长牙) from an extinct mammoth (猛犸象) about 10, 000 feet beneath the ocean. Researchers collected the sample off the California coast in July 2021. “You start to expect the unexpected when e
17、xploring the deep sea, but Im still stunned that we came on the ancient tusk of a mammoth,” Steven Haddock, a marine scientist at Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, said in a statement. Columbian mammoths, giant ice age mammals that stood some 14 feet tall, marched around what is now Californ
18、ia as recently as some 11, 000 years ago. Paleontologists (古生物学者) are still pulling their well-preserved bones out of tar in Los Angeles. How did a tusk find its way to the deep sea? Its unknown, and likely will remain unknown. But land-dwelling creatures are sometimes washed out into deeper ocean r
19、egions, perhaps during great floods. The intense cold and pressure in the deep sea excellently preserved the tusk. The research team plans to examine the fossil carefully and even determine the long-dead creatures age. They suspect its over 100,000 years old. “This deep-sea environment is different
20、from those we have seen elsewhere,” mammoth paleontologist Daniel Fisher said in a statement, noting that most mammoth finds in the ocean are in much shallower waters. “We know so little about the deep ocean that pretty much anyone can find something new if they were doing something unique down ther

24、e meaning of finding a mammoth tusk in the deep seaIn the near future, instead of going to your wardrobe (衣柜) to choose something to throw on for your next video call, you might turn to your virtual wardrobe to pick out a 3D digital dress to wear. At least, thats what a number of people in the fashi
25、on and tech space are relying on as more businesses look to the promise of digital fashion. Moreover, those virtual clothes wont just be for your video calls, but could eventually be worn all over the virtual world, and eventually, perhaps, viewed on your body in the real world through the Augmented
26、 Reality (AR) glasses. “There are more and more second worlds where you can express yourself. But there is probably an underestimation of the value being attached to individuals who want to express themselves in a virtual world with a virtual product, through a virtual image,”a marketing officer Rob
27、ert said. As the field develops, there are two ways of using digital clotheswearing them yourself through AR and providing digital clothes for your virtual body. But why should we replace our physical clothes? Supporters say theres unlimited creative expression through digital clothes, which now loo
28、k increasingly more elegant thanks to developments in 3D and AR technology. “Clothing represents an expression of a personality. It always exists in the physical world, and it will exist in the virtual world,” said Simon Whitehouse, a designer. He explained, “From the brand side, its incredibly prof
29、itable to sell clothes without producing physical clothes. Its reinventing an entire supply chain. Theres no water usage, theres very limited CO2 emission. There are no samples being sent out or returned. There are no show rooms, and theres no physical prototype (实物模型).”12What can you probably do in
30、 the near future according to paragraph 1?AOpen a virtual fashion clothing store.BDesign 3D digital clothes for yourself.CBuy a bigger wardrobe for your bedroom.DWear virtual clothes made by digital technology.13What can we infer from Simons words in paragraph 3?AAR technology will bring a challenge
31、 to people.BOnes character will be seen in the virtual world.CDigital clothes will be more convenient for people.DOnes expression only can be seen in the physical world.14What is Simons attitude to digital clothing?AApproving.BDoubtful.CUnclear.DGrateful.15What is the text mainly about?AThe increase
32、 in AR glasses.BThe digital fashion in the future.CThe virtual body in digital clothes.DAR glasses made by new technology.二、七选五When we think of Antarctica, the first thing that comes to our mind is a picture of penguins and large areas covered with snow. Large amounts of white snow spreading over th
33、ousands of kilometers is a pretty good description of Antarctica. _16_ Research and observations conducted over the past few years have led to the conclusion that the Antarctic Peninsulas snow is turning green. _17_ These algae (藻), even though they are individually incapable of being seen by eyes,
34、are visible from space. These algae produce colonies called algal blooms, which spread over large areas. _18_ As a result, Antarctica is visible as many patches of green algae are on white snow from space. Algae are green because of the presence of the pigment chlorophyll, which helps in photosynthe
35、sis (光合作用). Not just green though, red algae have also been found on Antarcticas snow, leaving the snow painted red. These green and red algae are not just present on the surface of the snow. _19_ When the upper layer of snow melts, the algal bloom remains visible in the layers below. Scientists fea
36、r that such profound growth of algae can set off more global warming, causing even more snow to melt. To better understand that, we must consider that white snow reflects most of the sunlight that falls on it. However, as the surface of the snow darkens, it absorbs more and reflects less of the sunl
37、ight. _20_ This will cause warming of the surrounding area at a faster rate, melting more snow day by day.AThis is due to algal growth.BBut, that legendary snow is not completely white anymore.CSometimes, they can be present below the surface of the snow.DThe algae grow so quickly that they occupy g
38、reat areas of the snow.EThe Antarctic is the area of the continent with the most vegetation.FMore sunlight implies more heat trapped on the surface of the Earth.GScientists are estimating the area covered by these green snow algae.三、完形填空As a young man, I wanted to see the world and be inspired by ne
