17、 In a travel magazine.【13题答案】【答案】1. C2. B3. DBAfter being attacked by Hurricane Idas 150 mph winds and torrential rains, hundreds of thousands of Gulf Coast residents were left without power and fresh water this week as a 100-degree heat wave settled over the region. Ida smashed into Louisiana as a

18、Category 4 hurricane, ripping off roofs, knocking out transmission lines, flooding roads, and reducing some brick buildings in downtown New Orleans to rubble. At least eight people died in the storm and the toll is expected to rise as emergency workers search wrecked homes and businesses.One of the

19、most powerful hurricanes to ever hit the U.S. mainland, Ida brought a 5 to 12-foot storm surge that covered low-lying communities in southeastern Louisiana. Grand Isle is now “uninhabitable,” said Parish President Cynthia Lee Sheng, with 3 feet of sand covering the entire barrier island and 40 perce

20、nt of the buildings completely destroyed.The storm caused a citywide blackout in New Orleans, but a Hurricane Katrina-level disaster was avoided there, thanks in part to the $ 14.5 billion spent on new levees, seawalls, and pumps after the 2005 storm. Experts are warning that Ida could worsen the Co

21、vid crisis in the Gulf Coast, as residents crowd together in homes and emergency shelters without immediate access to testing or medical care. ICUs in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama hospitals were already near capacity be- fore the storm hit. Nearly 1 million people are still without power acro

25、f the coast of the Antarctic Peninsula. Below him are several hundred penguins and their children. Forrests job is to count every one of them. Its snowing. There is a big wind, too. And their children wont stay still. Penguins are great climbers. So Forrest and the team members must be too. And peng

26、uins arent always clean.Forrest has been coming to Antarctica every January for six years. Hes helping count the areas penguins. This will help researchers better understand the Antarctic environment. There used to be lots of penguins in Antarctica, “Its all because of climate change,” Heather J. Ly

27、nch says seriously. She is leading the research team. The team member Noah Strycker adds, “We know climate change is hitting the Antarctic Peninsula harder than anywhere else in the world. We are following the situation closely.”Scientists think that warming waters do harm to krill, the tiny animals

28、 that penguins eat. This is bad for the sea life. But krill are hard to study, so researchers pay attention to penguins. Theyre easier to follow. They return to the same place each year to lay eggs. If penguins arent doing well , krill probably arent either. “Penguins give us an idea about what is g

29、oing on in the sea around us,” Forrest says.This year, Lynchs research team uses a drone to help them. They fly it over an area to take pictures to count penguins.Counting penguins is quite necessary. The more we learn, the more we know about krill and the ocean animals that depend on them. When we

30、understand them, we can start fixing them. We should consider carefully what Lynch says: “Whats happening in the Antarctic is happening everywhere.”8. What is required of scientists like Forrest according to Paragraph 1?A. Being clean.B. Being good at math.C. Being cool-headed.D. Being skilled in cl

31、imbing.9. Whats the point of counting penguins in the Antarctie?A. To protect this animal species from extinction.B. To help find out how many krill might be livingC.

DDDNA from fossils (化石) has transformed the study of human and animal evolution, revealing unknown relationships, tracing early migrations, and exposing ancient inter-species mating.

34、 Yet for humans, the entire field depends on just 23 ancient genomes (基因组), 18 of them from Neanderthals. Recently, scientists unlocked a much larger trove (宝库) of ancient DNA: from the soil of cave floors. This year, for the first time, cave dirt yielded DNA once housed in the nucleus of human cell

35、s, and researchers used such “dirt DNA” to reconstruct the identity of cave dwellers around the world.The new work borrows from the study of environmental DNA from living species. To find out which organisms inhabit lakes, forests, and other places, scientists collect the free-floating DNA they shed

36、 into air, water, and soil. By 2003, evolutionary geneticists showed discarded (丢弃的) DNA could exist for thousands of years. It was used by researchers in 2015 to help reconstruct entire ancient ecosystems, even in the absence of fossils. But much of that DNA comes from mitochondria (线粒体), the cells

37、 power plants, which store tiny pieces of information of genetic material. Thanks to new techniques, scientists can now comb ancient soils for nuclear DNA, which carries the fall instructions for life.This year, scientists successfully used nuclear DNA to chart the human and animal occupation of thr

38、ee caves. In Spains Estatuas Cave, nuclear DNA revealed the genetic identity and sex of humans who lived there 80,000 to 113,000 years ago, and suggested one line age of Neanderthals replaced several others after a glacial period that ended 100,000 years ago. In 25,000-year-old soil from Georgias Sa

39、tsurblia Cave, scientists found a female human genome from a previously unknown line of Neanderthals, along with the genetic traces of a bison and a now-extinct wolf. And by comparing 12,000-year-old black bear DNA from Mexicos Chiquihuite Cave with that of modern bears, scientists discovered that a

40、fter the last ice age, the cave bears descendants (后代) migrated as far north as Alaska.Techniques for extracting and sequencing nuclear DNA from ancient soils are still improving. As they do, researchers hope to answer even more questions about the rise and fall of ancient species.12. What does the

41、author think of fossil DNA study?A. It is outdated.B. It is improving.C. It is revolutionary.D. It is challenging.13. What do we know about nuclear DNA?A. It only exists in human cells.B. It can be found on cave floors.C. It contains little information about life.D. It has a short life outside of hu

44、people about climate change, you might always get asked the question: What can you do to help as a consumer? Here are some specific steps you can take:Sign up for a green pricing program with your electric utility. Some utility companies allow homes and businesses to pay extra for power from clean s

45、ources. When you participate in these programs, youre telling your utility company that youre willing to pay more to address climate._16_Without that demand signal, the innovations that governments and businesses invest in will stay in the shelf._17_Depending on how much money and time you can spare

46、, you can replace your incandescent light bulbs with LEDs, install a smart thermostat, insulate your windows, buy efficient appliances, or replace your heating and cooling system with a heat pump.Buy an electric vehicle (EV).
