It also tends to collect in shellfish. And, according to a study published Tuesday, it may become more common as oceans warm, threatening birds and humans alike.Researchers have studied the rate of poisonous acid over the past 20 years in the Pacific Northwest, and found it strongly related to water temperatures that are warmer than normal.For now, warmer waters typically comes from events like EL Nino and a decades -long climate cycle called Pacific decadal oscillation, the study found. It isnt yet clear how climate change, which also warms the oceans, might affect the rate of the poison.When waters unusually warm off our coast, its because the circulation and patterns in the atmosphere has changed, bringing warm water from elsewhere - and this is happening at the same time that we also see high poisonous acid in shellfish, Morgaine McKibben, the study s lead author said.The poison is produced during warm domoic blooms, and gets passed up the food chain by animals that eat it. Sea lions, dolphins and humans are at risk. While some animals can eventually clean themselves of the poison, the threat can last a long time after the warm water decreases.Animals poisoned by poisonous acid tend to become weak, and experience death. Symptoms in humans include headache, confusion, loss of short - term memory, weakness and unconsciousness.It isnt just a health risk. An Oregon State University statement notes that officials have to shut down shellfish harvests when poisonous acid levels are high, causing economic harm.Since health officials first regarded poison acid as a health threat in 1987, Pacific Northwest shellfish harvests have been stopped in 2005, 2017, and 2018. The West Coast crab（蟹）industry took an estimated$100 million hit in 2017 alone.1、Why did the birds lose their mind in the summer of 1961?AThey maybe had a bad memory.BThey maybe ate poisonous fish.CThey maybe collected the shellfish.DThey maybe drank warm water.2、What is the connection between the rate of poisonous acid and water temperatures?AWhen atmosphere has changed, it warms off the coast.BWhen circulation comes, the oceans get warmer.CWhen climate has changed, the oceans get colder.DWhen water becomes warmer, high poisonous acid appears.3、What result will poisonous acid cause to humans?AMaking humans conscious.BMaking humans dead.CMaking humans temporarily lose memory.DMaking humans suffer heart attack.4、Whats the best title of this passage?AHigh Poisonous Acid Appears in the AnimalsBThe West Coast Crab Industry Suffer Great LossCClimate Change Warms the Oceans in the WorldDWarmer Oceans Increase Likelihood of Poisonous Shellfish22（8分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。W is the UKs biggest and best online guide to the performing arts including theatre, opera, classical music, dance and so on.

It also was short, lasting for only 10 minutes. Immediately after each session of the sitting or slow pedaling, the people completed a computerized memory test during which they would see a brief picture of, for instance, a tree, followed by a variety of other images and then a new image of either the same tree or a similar one. The people would press buttons to show whether they thought each image was new or the same as an earlier shot. The test is difficult, since many of the images closely resemble one another. It requires rapid, skillful scanning recent memories to decide whether a picture is new or known. Next, the scientists had each people repeat this process-riding or sitting on the bike for 10 minutes and then completing memory testing-but the testing now took place inside an M. R. I. machine(磁共振成像仪)that scanned the peoples brains while they responded to the images.Then the researchers compared results. The effects of the exercise were clear. The people were better at remembering images after they had ridden the bike, especially when the images most closely resembled one another. In other words, the harder their memories had to do their best, the better they performed after the exercise. The M. R. I. scans showed that memory parts of each peoples brain lit up at the same time with parts of the brain associated with learning, indicating that these physically separate parts of the brain were better connected now than when the people had not first exercised.1、How did the researchers conduct the study?ABy filling up questionnaires.BBy interviewing many people.CBy comparing experiment data.DBy referring to historical reports.2、Who might benefit most from the study result?AThe marketers promoting fixed bicycles.BThe young people crazy about body building.CThe white collars doing long-term mental work.DThe blue-collars doing heavy physical labor work.3、Which of the following statements agrees with the study result?AThe light exercise is only good for young people.BThe more the exercise is, the better the brain works.CThe exercise can coordinate different parts of the body.DThe exercise has more positive effect when the brain works harder.4、What can be the best title for the text?AEven ten minutes exercise may be good for the brainBThere is no need for humans doing exercise every dayCOnly ten minutes light exercise benefits the young mostDExercise can change peoples brains and minds in a long time24（8分） Do you want to read some new books? Here are a few of Bill Gates favorites in 2018.21 Lessons for the 21st CenturyAuthor: Yuval Noah HarariPrice: $20.2The author, who is a really strong thinker, makes it clear that big problems are not solvable by a single country. He finds that human mind wants to worry about the dilemmas we face today. The book is a better framework for all the problems that people are worrying about.Meditation and MindfulnessAuthor: Andy PuddicombePrice: $18.5When you meditate, they sometimes say you should empty your mind, but that really never happens. So the authors analogy (比喻) is ideas that are like clouds coming across your head. You should just push away gently. If the book can get people doing 10 minutes daily meditation, that is fantastic for relaxing your mind.Army of NoneAuthor: Paul ScharrePrice: $46.1It is about what armies are going to look like in the future. Should a drone (无人机) be able to go out and find enemies and attack them? Should the software be letting the humans make the decisions or not? The author is warning that we need to hold back and not go all the way to robotic warfare. The author thinks we should not give up human involvement in these weapons.Bad BloodAuthor: John CarreyrouPrice: $43.4It is a story of secrets and lies in a Silicon Valley start-up. Theranos, the founders were doing diagnostics (诊断) that can be very cheap, not need as much blood, read out even your DNABut when it all was revealed, they really didnt have what they were talking about. In fact, they had been giving patients diagnoses, which were actually dangerous because they were so wrong. It is a thriller with a tragic ending.1、Which book is suitable for a person who wants to find a way to get relaxed?A21 Lessons for the 21st Century.BMeditation and Mindfulness.CArmy of None.DBad Blood.2、Who wrote a thriller in 2018?AYuval Noah Harari.BAndy Puddicombe.CPaul Scharre.DJohn Carreyrou.3、How much will you pay for Army of None?A$20.2.B$18.5.C$46.1.D$43.4.25（10分） Back in 2009, China was wrongly accused by the West of controlling the Copenhagen talks on climate change. By then China had truly carried out strict policies to reduce the energy consumption of economic activities and at the international level, the top Chinese leaders participated in round-clock efforts to cooperate with the major players to build a united front for efforts to solve global warming. But China was finally misjudged.This misjudgment caused Chinas scholars to rethink Chinas climate change communicative ways. Among them was Zheng Baowei, journalism professor of Renmin University of China, who realized China had to better shape its communication on its environmental protection.Delightfully, the efforts have paid off. Zheng set up a top-level international group advising his research team. He is in charge of doctoral candidates on climate change communication. Climate awareness surveys have been conducted, and a package of communication tools has been designed. Many seminars have been arranged.Recently, he arranged a seminar on climate change and health communication on the changing situation both in China and the world. First of all, this stressed that Chinas policy has developed from reducing its energy consumption and pollution prevention to the important goals of achieving a Beautiful China and Healthy China, while coming up with plans to realize an ecological civilization since late 2012. With such goals, China played a leading role in securing the Paris c
