23.(8分) The world’s insects are going down the path of extinction,threatening a“catastrophic collapse of nature’s ecosystems”,according to the first global scientific review.More than 40%of insect species are declining and third are endangered,the analysis found.The rate of extinction is eight times faster than that of mammals,birds and reptiles.
“It should be of huge concern to all of us,for insects are at the heart of every food web.They pollinate(授粉)the large majority of plant species,keep the soil healthy,recycle nutrients,control pests,and much more.Love them or 1oathe them,we humans cannot survive without insects,”said Prof Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex in the UK.
The analysis,published in the journal Biological Conservation,says intensive(集约型)agriculture is the main driver of the declines,particularly the heavy use of pesticides.Urbanisation and climate change are also significant factors.
“If insect species losses cannot be stopped,this will have catastrophic consequences for both the planet’s ecosystems and for the survival of mankind.It is very rapid.In 10 years you will have a quarter less,in 50 years only half left and in 100 years you will have none,”said review author Francisco Sánchez-Bayo,at the University of Sydney,Australia.
One of the biggest impacts of insect loss is on many birds,reptiles,amphibians and fish that eat insects.“If this food source is taken away,all these animals starve to death,”he said.Such effects have already been seen in Puerto Rico,where a recent study revealed a 98%fall in ground insects over 35 years.
Matt Shardlow,at the conservation charity Buglife,said:“It is thoughtful to see this evidence that shows the pitiful state of the world’s insect populations.It is increasingly obvious that the planet’s ecology is breaking and there is a need for a strong and global effort to prevent and change these terrible trends.”
1、Why are people worried about the insect decline?
A.They are vital to ecosystems. B.They provide food for pests.
C.They pollinate all plants. D.They enrich the soil.
2、What is the main cause of insect losses?
A.More and more trees. B.Restrictions on pesticides.
C.Upgrading agriculture. D.Friendly environment.
3、Where can you find the exact time of insect losses?
A.In paragraph 1. B.In paragraph 2.
C.In paragraph 3. D.In paragraph 4.
4、What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Humans can survive the punishment of nature
B.Insect declining is breaking nature’s ecosystems
C.Nature’s ecosystems are influenced by humans
D.Insects and animals are dying out in Puerto Rico
24.(8分)Recycling is essential in today’s world. The most important reason for this is that human progress and industry have made it possible for people to have lots of things, and when people have many material possessions, they are bound to throw some of them away. This creates a lot of garbage which in turn destroys the environment.
Recycling is a way for us to keep the world clean as items are broken down and used again, preventing the littering of the environment. Instead of throwing all your garbage into the trash can, you should separate paper, metal, glass, and plastic into different containers. Compost should also be recycled as this is excellent food for farm animals and also makes for great fertilizer(肥料).
You should try to buy products that have been recycled. You can see if an item has been made from recycled materials by its label; if it’s been recycled, it will say so. Also, instead of always buying new clothes, you can arrange to have a clothing swap with your friends. You bring clothes you don’t want and pick items you want from what other people have brought. Not only does this save the environment, but it also saves your pocketbook. Remember, what is one person’s junk can be someone else’s treasure! The saying can be applied to all sorts of things: books, CDS, furniture, etc. Also, try shopping at second-hand stores, because they often have lots of items still in good shape for you to choose.
Many countries have made it easy for people to recycle, as alongside the normal garbage trucks, special garbage trucks come and pick up recyclables. However, in many countries around the world the responsibility is left up to the individual to recycle. Therefore, it must be made a priority (优先考虑的事) in society so we can continue to make our environment livable.
1、Why is more waste being made in today’s world?
A.People dislike the updated items.
B.People own abundant belongings.
C.People intend to live a simple life.
D.People have made great progress in industry.
2、What does the underlined word“this”in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Exchanging clothes with friends.
B.Shopping at second-hand stores.
C.Throwing away old clothes.
D.Picking up new items.
3、To make the environment enjoyable, we should .
A.always buy new clothes
B.choose recyclable products
C.go shopping at chain stores
D.arrange more garbage trucks
4、What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Governments do nothing in recycling.
B.Normal vehicles can pick up recyclables.
C.The individual seldom cares about recycling.
D.Everyone should feel socially responsible for rcling.
25.(10分)Google, one of the world’s outstanding tech companies, was attacked. It wasn’t its search engine that was attacked or its advertising platform or even its social network. Google+. Instead, it was a building.
Two web security experts hacked (侵入) into its Wharf 7 office in Sydney, Australia, through Google’s building management system (BMS). One of them, Billy Rios, says, “My colleague and I have lot of experience in web security, but it is not something that people couldn’t learn. Once you understand how the system works, it is very simple.”
They found the system on Shodan, a search engine that lists devices connected to the Internet, and then ran it through their own software to identify who owned the building. In the case of the Google hacking, the researchers had no immoral purpose and just informed Google about what they found.
According to Mr Rios, who runs security company Whitescope, there are 50, 000 buildings currently connected to the Internet, including research institutes, churches and hospitals, and 2, 000 of those are online with password protection, Martyn Thomas, a professor of IT at Gresham College in the UK, says, “It is beyond doubt that attempts to attack building management systems are happening all the time.”
Making a building smart generally means connecting the systems that control heating, lighting and security to the Internet and the wider corporate netw
