Naval Reserve(海军预备役),where she worked on the first large automatic(自动的)calculator in the U. S. Her team came up with new ways to interact with computer data.
12、 Grace believed the data should be similar to human language. Later, she helped develop a computer language called COBOL, which uses English words.Grace was a pioneer in computer science.

16、 is turning to seaweed(海草) as a possible settlement. Seaweed can play a huge role in fighting climate change. It is used to create natural fuel and renewable plastics. It helps improve oceanic ecosystems.People think of forests as the best defense(防护) against climate change. But some researchers say
17、 seaweed is a better settlement. Unlike trees, seaweed doesnt need fertilizers or fresh water. It grows faster than trees do. And it doesnt require any land. Most importantly, it absorbs carbon from the environment.Seaweed could also become a key global food source. Many worry about the environmenta
18、l influence of eating meat. Could seaweed farms provide enough protein for the world? Carlos Duarte, a professor of oceanic ecology,thinks so. When you look at how we are going to feed the world population by 2050, in a way that doesnt harm the environment, there is only one pathway, he says. “Seawe
19、ed farming.In the past decade or so, global seaweed production has doubled. In British Columbia, seaweed farming is becoming popular.

If it isnt harvested,it can go bad and give off carbon back into the air or water. Growing too much of it could also affect the amount
21、 of light that reaches species living deeper in the water. That would be dangerous for underwater ecosystems. So some scientists think seaweed can be a part of the settlement to climate change, but its not a perfect one on its own.8. What is an advantage of seaweed in fighting climate change compare

24、elD.Seaweed Production in the WorldDCaleb Arnold loves birdsespecially hummingbirds. The 7-year-old boy knows a lot about his favorite animal. “They pollinate(授粉)plants,and theyre pretty and small,” he says. But theres one thing Caleb didnt know: hummingbirds see a wider range(范围)of colors than we d
25、o.It makes sense that Caleb didnt know this. Few people did for sure, until June 15, 2020, when researchers published a report inProceedings of the National Academy ofSciences. It confirmed the fact that scientists have long suspected. Birds are experiencing a more colorful world that is above our o
26、wn. A team of scientists conducted a three-year experiment to find out if hummingbirds are able to tell apart colors that look the same to humans.To understand the experiment, its important to know how color vision works. There are three types of tiny color-sensitive cones(锥细胞)in the human eye. Bird
27、s, and some other animals, have a fourth. This means they can also see ultraviolet(紫外线) colors. The ultraviolet cone type allows birds to see combination colors that humans cant, like ultraviolet green and ultraviolet red. Biologists studying birds have supposed that birds can see these,but its been
28、 challenging to test this idea.Thats exactly what the team did. They put two bird feeders in the wild. One contained ordinary water. The other contained sugar water. Both feeders held a specially designed LED light sticksort of a bird-vision light tubethat changed colors. If we are showed the ultrav
29、iolet green tube and the green tube,theyd both just look green to us. But the hummingbirds saw the difference. They could even tell apart two shades of ultraviolet red. The scientists observed that the birds were able to use the colors of the lights to find the sweet water.Caleb is glad scientists w

What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A.The reason for birds better color vision.B.The types of color-sensitive cones.C.Combination colors unseen by humans.D.The
32、 experiment to test ultraviolet colors.15. How did hummingbirds find the water they liked?A.By tasting the water in the two containers.B.By recognizing the light colors on the feeders.C.By smelling the water in different tubes.D.By telling apart the depth of water in different feeders.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2
