Now, a Dutch company named TechTics has found a 4 to solve this problem. It has 5 a beach-cleaning robot named BeachBot, or BB.

Using an app called Trove, anyone with a smartphone can send BB photos of cigarette butts to help the robot learn to recognize them. BB was tried out in September 2020. It 9 20 cigarette butts in 30 minutes. TechTics is also building two smaller robots to help BB. They find cigarette butts and make maps for BB to 10 .

Sperm whales live in every ocean on the planet. Their large heads help them stand out from other whales. Here are some fun facts about them.
Sperm whales have the biggest brains of all the animals on Earth. Our brains weigh about 1.4 kilograms, but a sperm whale's brain can weigh up to 9 kilograms.
Sperm whales are amazing divers. These huge animals can dive to around 2,000 metres and can go over 60 minutes between breaths.
Sperm whales are the loudest animals alive. They make special high sounds to send information to one another from hundreds of kilometres away. The sounds are even louder than those made by planes. What's more, each whale makes its own sound. Scientists believe this is how they recognize(认出) one another.
Sperm whales sleep up straight near the surface of the water. It looks like they're standing in the ocean. And scientists have found that they sleep for less than two hours every day.
Ambergris(龙涎香) is a thing that forms in the stomach of a sperm whale. It is thought to protect the whale's stomach. Sperm whales release(释放) ambergris into the sea as a sweet-smelling, egg-shaped ball. Ambergris is often used in fine perfumes(香水). A kilogram of it can sell for up to $50,000.
Sperm whales appear in a novel. In 1820, a ship called Essex was hit by an angry 26-metre-long sperm whale. American writer Herman Melville later wrote about this event in his novel Moby-Dick.
Sperm whales are truly great animals. Learning about them may not be worth as much as a piece of ambergris, but it is certainly worth your while!
（ ）1. The writer develops Paragraphs 2 and 3 by __________.
A.telling stories B.showing steps C.listing numbers D.giving examples
（ ）2. Which of the following sentences can be put in the “ ▲ ”
It produces something that is worth as much as gold!
Ambergris is most often white, grey, black or brown in colour.
This makes ambergris one of the most valuable things on Earth!
Millions of sperm whales were found in the oceans in North America.
（ ）3. Which of the following is TRUE about sperm whales
They often hit ships in the sea. B. They have a good smell like perfume.
C. They sleep at the bottom of the ocean. D. They can make sounds that travel very far.
（ ）4. What is the correct structure of the passage （①=Paragraph 1, ②=Paragraph 2, ···)
①②/③④/⑤⑥⑦⑧ B. ①/②③④⑤⑥⑦/⑧
C. ①/②③/④⑤/⑥⑦⑧ D. ①/②/③④⑤⑥/⑦⑧

参考范文
Polar bears mostly live on see ice. They are good at swimming. At birth, they weigh only a few hundred grams. But when they become adults, they may weigh as as much as 900 kilograms. They can live for up to 25 years. They eat some animals in the sea.
Nowadays, polar bears are in danger. There are many reasons for this. First, it’s because the Earth is becoming warmer and warmer and there is less and less ice. Polar bears are losing their homes. Second, people kill polar bears for their fur and meat, because their fur is thick enough to keep people warm in cold winter.
It is important for people to protect polar bears. We must stop people from killing them.
