Though that makes the city Europes top ora

19、nge-producing city, the fruit is too sour to be consumed fresh. While some of the produce is used to make orange juice, most of it ends up in Sevilles landfills. However, that may change soon thanks to a creative idea to use the oranges to produce clean energy.In the pilot program, juice from 38. 6

20、tons of oranges will be left to ferment (发酵)in an existing biogas facility. The juice is fructose (果糖)made up of very short carbon chains, and the energetic performance of these carbon chains during the fermentation process is particularly high. The gas released from the fermented liquid will be use

21、d to drive a generator to produce clean power. The officials estimate the test run will generate about 1,500 kWh of energyenough to run a water purification plant. Its not just about saving money. The oranges are a problem for the city, and were producing added value from waste,M said Benigno Lopez,

22、 the head of Emasesas environmental department.If successful, by 2023, the city hopes to recycle all the oranges and add the electricity generated back to its grid (电网). In trial runs, 1,000 kilos (2,200 pounds) of oranges produced 50 kWh of clean energy一enough to meet the daily electricity needs of

23、 five homes. The project team estimates that if all the fruit is recycled, it will produce enough energy to power as many as 73,000 residences.The latest effort is among the many programs implemented in Spain to achieve the countrys goal of switching its electricity system to renewable sources by 20

26、duce a project.D. To comment on an idea.D篇In a new study, shark researchers working off the eastern coast of New Zealand have found that three species of deep-sea shark are bioluminescent （生物性发光的），producing a soft blue-green light with specialized cells in their skin.One of the species, the kitefin

27、shark, grows to a length of nearly six feet, making it the largest known bioluminescent animal. The other two species are somewhat smaller than the kitefin, and all are occasionally caught as unintended by-catch by fishers. None are considered in danger of extinction, but little is known about their

28、 lifestyles and biology.Bioluminescence had previously been documented in only around a dozen shark species, so this discovery significantly adds to our knowledge, says Jerome Mallefet, lead author of the new study.In the deep sea, where scientists estimate three-quarters of all creatures are biolum

29、inescent, having the ability to create light can be extremely advantageous. In the depths of the ocean, which receives minimal amounts of sunlight, bioluminescent animals can hide themselves from enemies by producing enough light to match their surroundings. All three species examined in this study

30、have large concentrations of photocytes （发光细 胞）on their undersides, which suggests that these sharks may hide from enemies in just this way.The discovery that these three species produce light is not surprising, says David Ebert, director of the Pacific Shark Research Center. Thats because researche

31、rs think many more species of sharks are likely capable of producing light-Mallefet estimates that perhaps 10 percent of the 540 known species of sharks are bioluminescent. But Ebert thinks even this is far from the truth. As the deep-sea shark research advances, that number will go even higher, he

32、says.Both Ebert and Mallefet hope that more attention will be paid to deep-sea sharks in the future, as the creatures and their habitat are understudied and under threat. A lot of people know that sharks can bite, says Mallefet, but few people know that they can produce light in the dark. ”12. What

33、do we know about the bioluminescent shark species?A. They were quite difficult to catchB. They preferred to live in the dark.C. They were considered to be endangered.D. They were little known about before the study.13. What does the fourth paragraph focus on?A. The function of bioluminescence.B. The

34、 significance of the discovery.C. The terrible surroundings in the sea.D. The usual activities of sea creatures.14. What does Ebert think of Mallefets guess at the number of bioluminescent sharks?A. Agreeable. B. Scientific. C. Inaccurate. D. Inspirational.15. What is Ebert and Mallefets common wish

35、?A. More people will study sharks.B. Deep-sea sharks will grow in number.C. Deep-sea sharks will receive more attention.D. More bioluminescent animals will be found.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。While you may be avoiding your gym during the pandemic （疫情）due to health
