18、ng with the non-profit organization Pangolin. Africa, the documentary was made available on YouTube in May 2019. The intention is to reach communities wherever the Internet is available, especially African communities, who live near the animals habitats.Over two years, the documentary crew traveled

19、to South Africa, Ghana, Central African Republic and Gabon in search of the four unique species of pangolin, which has never been achieved before. Filmmakers Bruce Young and Johan Vermeulen say that they went into the shoot knowing relatively little about pangolins, but grew to respect and appreciat

20、e the animals. Getting close to the creatures over two years was a crash course in these secretive creatures. Johan Vermeulen said, “One thing however that might seem unimportant is that they are actually quite fussy eaters. You would think they would eat any type of ant, but they all prefer a speci

A magazine.DWind farms have been considered as the way to fight global warming, but a new study suggests they could

26、 actually heat the planet up.The study found that the US would get warmer if the number of turbines(涡轮机) were increased markedly. Researchers say theyll require much more land than previously thought, needing five to 20 times more space than earlier studies have suggested. And winds created by vast

27、fields of turbines could mix warm and cool air, which makes the surface quite warm.Despite the potential drawbacks, however, the researchers argue wind energy still makes more sense for the environment than fossil fuels. Study coauthor and Harvard University scientist Professor David Keith argued th

28、at, when it comes to energy production, there is no free lunch. “Wind beats coal by any environmental measure, but that doesnt mean that its effects can be ignored. We must use fewer fossil fuels to stop carbon production. In doing so, we must make choices between various low-carbon technologies, al

29、l of which have some environmental effects,” he said.More than ten previous studies have now observed local warming caused by US wind farms. Researchers suggested that solar power offers a less damaging energy source in the fight against climate change. In terms of temperature difference per unit of

30、 energy generation, solar power has about 10 times less effect than wind, and the solar power energy is mature in a wide range of fields. But there are other considerations. For example, solar farms are dense(密集的), while the land between wind turbines can be co-used for agriculture.Tidal power is an

31、 environmentally-friendly energy source. In addition to being a renewable energy, it does not give off any climate gases and does not take up a lot of space. However, there are currently very few examples from real tidal power plants and their effects on the environment. Also, it is important to rea

32、lize that the methods for generating electricity from tidal energy are relatively new technologies. It is projected that tidal power will be commercially profitable within2030 with better technology and larger scales.32. What is the purpose of the text?A. To introduce a study finding.B. To discuss t

33、he global warming problem.C. To prove the benefits of wind farms.D. To call attention to environmental protection.33. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The effects of global warming.B. The reason for using wind energy.C. The disadvantages of wind farms.D. The working principle of wind farms.34. Wh

34、at do Professor David Keiths words suggest?A. Producing energy is easier than before.B. Consuming energy damages the environment.C. Burning coal should be totally stopped.D. Developing low-carbon technologies is hard.35. Which is recommended considering the environment and practical use?A. Wind ener

35、gy.B. Fossil fuel.C. Tidal power.D. Solar energy.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Will you stop using plastic?If you take a look around your kitchen or office right now, chances are that youll notice youre surrounded by plasticwater bottles, to-go coffee cups, straws(吸管)

39、s Mystic Aquariums chief clinical veterinarian Jennifer Flower, DVM, MS. “Given that we are globally producing over 320 million tons of plastic annually, the marine environment is taking a big hit from our daily disposal of plastic. 38 For example, newborn fish are mistaking tiny bits of plastic was

40、te for food. If they die, there will be fewer big fishand that could damage the food chain. Often our society is so focused on making our lives more convenient in the short term, but in the long run, our health and the health of marine life are at the expense of those everyday conveniences.” 39 A re
