Australia’s Great Barrier Reef has lost 50% of its corals (珊瑚) within 30 years, with climate change a key
driver of reef disturbance, a new study has found.
Researchers from the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies, inQueensland, northeasternAustralia,
studied coral communities and theirsize along the length of theGreat Barrier Reefbetween 1995 and 2017, finding
all coral populations disappear gradually, they said.
Reefs are important to the health of ocean ecosystems — without them, ecosystems break down and ocean
life dies.
Coral population decreases happened in both shallow and deep water coral species, experts found, but branching
and table-shaped corals — which provide habitats for fish — were worst affected by mass bleaching (漂白) events
in 2016.
Warm ocean temperatures are the main reason of coral bleaching. Bleaching doesn’t kill coral immediately,
but if temperatures remain high, eventually the coral will die, destroying a natural habitat for many species of
ocean life.
“We used to think the Great Barrier Reef is protected by its huge size — but in fact our results show that even the
world’s largest and ly well-protected reef system is increasingly destroyed and in decline,” Terry Hughes, an
outstanding professor at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies, said.
“There is no time to lose — we must sharply decrease greenhouse gas emissions as soon as possible,” the
reporter warned in the paper, published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society journal.
4. What has mainly influenced the coral populations of theGreat Barrier Reef?
A. Destroyed habitats. B. Climate change.
C. Lack of seafood. D. Bleaching events.
5. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Many species has been dying out slowly.
B. The size of reefs contributes to their protection.
C. Ocean ecosystems don’t develop without reefs.
D. Bleaching continually disturbs table-shaped corals.
6. What attitude does the reporter hold to the present situation of theGreat Barrier Reef?
A. Worried. B. Angry. C. Hopeful. D. Surprised.
7. What is probably the best title for the passage?
A. Climate change damages theGreat Barrier Reef
B. The Species of ocean Life Are In Danger
C. Greenhouse Gas Emissions Get Worse
D. Sea Ecosystems Are In Decline
C
Coke was introduced by the Coca Cola company in 1886, making it a rather true andtested favorite of
generations of people in over 200 countries. This list should give you some ideas on how to get more from your
coke than usual.
. Coca Cola is an excellent rust buster (除锈剂). If you have a bunch of small rusty objects, put them in coke
overnight and give them a goodscrubin the morning. Coke helps to break down the rust, making cleaning much
easier. Be sure to throw out the used coke when you are done with it or you might be taking a trip to the doctor.
. Like the previous item, the citric acid (柠檬酸) in coke makes for an excellent window cleaner. This is
especially useful for car windows. Pour a can of coke over the window and rub the window, then wipe it off with a
wet cloth to remove any sugary matter from the sugar in the drink. As coke is fullof sugar, you should clean the
sticky matter off the window glasses, or it will be not a cleaner but a dirt.
. For those of you who live in areas where skunk (臭鼬) smells can be an issue from time to time, one can of
coke added to water with detergent (清洁剂) really helps to break the smell down. If you have been sprayed,
stand in the shower and cover yourself from head to toe with coke — wait for a few minutes, then wash yourself
with a shower. Coke is an excellent hair treatment so you get two tips for the price of one with this item!
. Pots can sometimes get black on the bottom. The black is almost impossible to remove; this is caused by
over-cooking. To remove the black and renew your pot, pour in a can of coke (or as much as you need to cover the
blackened area by an inch) and put it on the stove on a low heat. After an hour or so, wash the pot as normal.
8. What does the underlined word “scrub”in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Start. B. Cleaning.
C. Shake. D. Example.
9. What is important while using coke to clean car windows?
A. Use a dry cloth.
B. Rub the window lightly.
C. Don’t pour too much coke.
D. Clean the sugary matter thoroughly.
10. For which purpose does coke have to be mixed with other material?
A. To get rid of the black on the pot.
B. To breakdown the rust,
C. To remove smells.
D. To clean windows.
11. What type of writing is this text?
A. An advertisement. B. A review.
C. A news report. D. A practical guide.
D
“They’re harming your brain.” “They’re ruining your eyes.” “They’re turning you into a violent person.” The
words said publicly against video games are so common, but are these worries founded on actual science?
Countless studies have offered different opinions on whether video games are bad for you. We’ve rounded up the
most notable reports and studies below, so you can weigh up the evidence for yourself.
In 2013,psychologist(心理学家) Simone Kuhn studied the influences of spending long hours on video games
on the brains of young adults and found that several areas became bigger than before. These areas are connected
with highercognitive functions(认知功能), memory formation andfinemotor(精细运动) function.
Last year, psychologists said that video game players who favour violent games are more likely to be violent
when offline. Dr. Mark Appelbaum of the American Psychological Association said that there was a relation
between violent video game use and increases in violent behaviour.
Dr. Daphne Bavelier is an expert in the field of Brain & Cognitive Sciences. Bavelier presented the audience
with a colour-word test, where non-gamers are easily puzzled by the test, and those who spend long periods
playing on their computers are more likely to pass the test with flying colours.
“Actually, those video game players have many other advantages in terms of attention,” said Bavelier, “and
one part of attention which is also improved for the better is our ability to follow the movements of objects.”
“So, in a sense, when we think about the influence of video games on the brain, it’s very similar to the
influence of wine on the health. There are some very poor uses of wine. There are some very poor uses of video
games. But when drunk in reasonable amounts, and at the right age, wine can be very good for health,” said
Bavelier.
12. What can be learned from Simone Kuhn’s study?
A. Video games make you happier.
B. Video games make your brain grow.
C. Video games play a key role in memory.
D. Video games teach you how to learn fast.
13. What was Dr. Mark Appelbaum’s attitude towards video games?
A. He was against them. B. He was hopeful of them.
was in favour of them. D. He was uncertain about them.
14. Which of the following may Dr. Daphne Bavelier agree with?
A. Video games fix attention problems.
B. Video games make kids do well in exams.
C. Video games encourage violent behaviour.
D. Video games help increase colour knowledge.
15. Why are the uses of wine mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. To remind people to avoid video games.
B. To show the disadvantages of video games.
C. To help people learn more about video games.
ask people to make good use of video games.
