3．（18分）"I was attacked by a tiger shark in October 1997.It was near my home on the island of Kanai.The waves were really good，so nothing was stopping us." That was until large shark came right up under Mike and（1）　 　 his teeth into Mike's lower leg.There'd been no splashing，no noise，and Mike felt no pain，only intense pressure on his（2）　 　 body.

As soon as Mike was given the OK by his doctors，he did what many of us might consider（6）　 　：he started riding the waves again.In fact，his first time back was near the site of his attack.But Mike was unshaken.Instead，he was curious﹣why was he attacked？Mike（7）　 　 that the water had a fishy smell the morning of the attack.Was that what attracted the shark？

"I watched a documentary called Sharkwater，and I learned about the（10）　 　for shark fin soup and the fact that 70 million sharks a year are killed for their fins alone."
His unique situation as a shark survivor empowered him to give sharks a（11）　 　，Mike says.He began working with the Hawaii state legislature（立法机关）to help pass a（12）　 　 on shark﹣related products."

Women Who Changed Science Forever
This International Women's Day，we're celebrating three women who changed the face of science forever.
Ellen Ochoa
Ellen Ochoa is an American engineer and retired astronaut.She was the first Latina woman to fly in space as part of the crew of the shuttle Discovery in 1993.Ochoa attended San Diego State University and then continued her education at Stanford.Ochoa regards her mother，whose passion for learning kept her in part﹣time college courses all through Ochoa's childhood，as an important influence on her career.
At the end of her flying career，Ochoa had traveled nearly 1，000 hours in space.From 2012 to 2018，Ochoa served as the director of Johnson Space Center in Houston，Texas，only the second woman to head up NASA's human spaceflight headquarters.
Mamie Phipps Clark
Mamie Phipps Clark was an American social psychologist（心理学家），who specialized in child development in black children.Born in Arkansas，Clark drew on her early experiences as a black child in the segregated（种族隔离的）American South to help children growing up with the same iniquities.
Clark stated at Howard University in 1934，and went on to complete a PhD in psychology.She and Kenneth，now her husband，were the first two black people to earn PhDs at Columbia.With their funding，she started the famous Doll Test，which showed the negative effects of school segregation on black children.
Anandibai Gopalrao Joshee
Anandibai Jpshee was to become India's first woman physician with a medical degree.When she was young，her father strayed（偏离）from the traditional Hindu belief that women should not receive education and encouraged her to go to school.When she was fifteen，she was determined to study medicine，a choice likely influenced by the loss of an infant son and surviving a serious illness herself.At the Woman's Medical College，Joshee studied devotedly，hoping to return to India to serve other Indian women.
She died in February 1887 at the young age of twenty﹣one.Despite her short life，Joshee's accomplishments were remarkable for an Indian woman，and her achievements were enough to open the door for other Indian women to quickly follow.

5．（8分）ECycling refers to the recycling of electronic items，which are becoming a common problem in American home and throughout the world.The EPA，or Environmental Protection Agency，has actually started a program to help and motivate the recycling of electronics.
To get the program to the regional and neighborhood levels，the EPA directed "Plug﹣In to eCycling Partners." These partnerships support electronic reusing programs in individual communities.They provide local governments，retailers and manufacturers with opportunities to reuse and recycle their items.Those who make and offer electronic devices then promote programs and opportunities for consumers to reuse their second﹣hand electronic products.One of the EPA's goals is to enlighten customers about why the recycling of electronics is so important.They likewise wish to make eCycling chances easily accessible to specific consumers and their family electronics.According to the EPA，the eCycling program has actually been quite successful.In 2008，the EPA collected 66.5 million pounds of electronic devices through their Plug﹣In Partners.
Local governments have actually likewise got on board and passed laws intended to handle used electronic devices.Huge corporations have actually introduced eCycling programs at their local retail stores.One seller offers customers small，medium and big boxes for sale，which the customers then load with used electronics and go back to the store.Typically，customers bring their recyclable electronics to a location.When the electronic items are gathered by the EPA（typically this is done by the Partners），they are reused or recycled.
Reused items are repaired and refurbished，and passed on to others as a contribution.You can repair or recondition your very own electronic devices too，extending the life of the items and conserving the energy of making new materials.Reusing electronic devices includes making use of the products and pats of the items.These materials and parts are then made use of to produce another item.This is more efficient than making items from new materials.
Some items that are commonly eCycled consist of televisions，computer monitors，printers，notebook computer，keyboards and cable televisions.Less usual items include copying machines，CDplayers，voice mail machines，computer hard drives，mobile telephones，remote controls，radios，batteries，telephones，facsimile machines and computer games.Occasionally，electronic items such as microwaves，fans，vacuums，smoke alarms，and toasters are eCycled.
As the eCycling program continues，you or your organization may want to get involved.Check the EPA's internet site（www.epa.gov）for regional eCycling programs，or for details on how your company can participate.Their website has links to organizations that are taking part in the eCycling program.
（1）The EPA brought about "Plug﹣In to eCycling Partners" to 　 　.
A.make and offer electronic devices to consumers
B.make customers understand the importance of eCycling
C.make the program accessible to local regions and communities
D.make it possible for consumers to reuse their used e﹣products
（2）The Plug﹣In Partners are mainly engaged in 　 　.
A.repairing electronic device
B.gathering recyclable electronics
C.reusing second﹣hand e﹣products
D.offering customers different boxes for sale
（3）What can we infer from the passage？ 　 　
A.People can sell their reused items on the Internet.
B.Individuals can't take part in eCycling programs.
C.Devices of computers are well eCycled.
D.Not every electronic item can be eCycled.
（4）What is the main purpose of this passage？ 　 　
A.To introduce a new way to save costs.
B.To teach customers how to recycle electronics.
C.To attract people to join in the eCycling programs.
D.To call on local governments to support Plug﹣In Partners.
6．（8分）What role might arts play in response to climate change and related economic and ecological crises？
It's often said that a novel，a painting，a song or a motion picture changed how a lot of people thought or felt about the world.Anthropologists（人类学家）and historians rightly argue that major changes in society have sprung up not from the arts，but from﹣our relationship to our environment.Nevertheless，artists' efforts help shape the terms by which society adapts to such changes and their consequences.Think of how Beethoven marked the beginnings of modern democracy and the nascent（初期的）Industrial Revolution.Or how Hollywood writers and directors inspired massive support for the U.S.war effort during the early 1940s.
We have stepped into a century in which the societal systems have been built since the start of the Industrial Revolution.Our food system，transport system，energy system，financial system，and possibly our political and governance systems were designed during an era in which fossil fuels met the great quantity of our fast﹣growing energy demand.But fossil fuels are exhaustible resources，and their reduction will drive evermore desperate methods of extraction（提炼），create evermore environmental risk and require evermore capital﹣even as alternative energy sources they are also costly.Further，burning fossil fuels changes our planet's climate.So，at the same time our economy will need to be redesigned to run on entirely different energy sources，and the natural world will be shifting around us in unprecedented（空前的）ways，with more frequent disastrous storms，floods，droughts etc.
Everything will be up for negotiation，redesign and change.And artists have the opportunity and duty to translate the resulting tumultuous（动荡的）human experience into words，images，and music that help people not just to understand these events mentally，but also to come to grips with them willingly.The economic and environmental shifts described above are currently being detailed in ever﹣greater specificity in hundreds of reports released yearly by climate and energy experts.What's missing in their carefully worded journal articles is the human dimensions of imagination，joy or sorrow，inspiration，and passion.Art can help us cope with the possible effects of our collective challenges.It can help prepare society for a possibly painful future.It can give voice to suffering and loss，helping people deal with life's unavoidable stress.And it
