[2023·湖北省四地七校联考]Zhu Dejun's first job after graduating from college was as a road design engineer at an institute in his hometown, Alshaa League, North China's Inner Mongolia autonomous region. In 2011, when Zhu was conducting a road survey along with his colleagues, he saw a plant that he didn't recognize. Later, Zhu learned that the plant was a saxaul tree which is an excellent tree species for sand fixation and afforestation(造林) in desert areas. It's commonly seen, though easily ignored. Known as a desert guardian, a fully grown saxaul tree can hold together a 10 square meter patch of desert land, according to Zhu.
Zhu quit his job at the design institute in 2014 and joined a nonprofit organization, the Society of Entrepreneurs and Ecology Conservation, or SEE, in the same year, concentrating on tackling desertification.
The organization, devoted to ecological protection and social responsibility, was located in the Alshaa League of Inner Mongolia. During the past eight years, Zhu has been leading a team from SEE to plant saxaul trees in sandy areas in Alshaa League and other places of Inner Mongolia.
In 2014, the SEE launched a project titled “one million saxaul trees”， aiming to reach that number from 2014 to 2023, turning the desert of more than 133，330 hectares back into a satisfying ecosystem. By the end of 2018, half of the organization's goal had been achieved.
In 2016, Ant Finance cooperated with SEE to introduce the Ant Forest platform, not only encouraging people to choose “a low carbon way” of shopping, traveling and living, but also to help control desertification.
Through the participation of a greater number of online users, who grow virtual trees, the SEE Foundation, set up in 2008, has been providing subsidies(补助金)for local herdsmen and farmers while also offering technological support to plant saxaul trees in desert areas. Now, Zhu is the head of the foundation's project to fight desertification. He also gives lectures about saxaul trees and the fight against desertification at schools, hoping to raise awareness among young people.
1．What did Zhu Dejun do first after graduation
A．He researched on saxaul trees.
B．He joined a nonprofit organization.
C．He found ways to fight desertification.
D．He focused on road design engineering.
2．Why are saxual trees planted by Zhu's team
A．They are easily taken care of.
B．They can grow fast in deserts.
C．They are perfect for holding water.
D．They can fight desertification effectively.
3．What did SEE do to control desertification
A．They teamed up with Ant Finance.
B．They planted one million saxaul trees.
C．They held online lectures on desertification.
D．They encouraged donation from online users.
4．How can online users help Zhu's team

[2023·临沂高二期中]In an article entitled “Millions of Americans Have Lost Jobs in the Pandemic—And Robots and AI Are Replacing Them Faster Than Ever”， the author Alana Semuels says, “The application of robots as a response to the coronavirus was rapid. They were suddenly cleaning floors at airports and taking people's temperatures. Hospitals and universities used Sally, a salad making robot created by tech company Chowbotics, to replace dining hall employees; malls and stadiums bought Knightscope security guard robots; companies that manufacture in demand supplies turned to industrial robot supplier Yaskawa America to help increase production.”
As Semuels writes, “Now, as automation lets companies do more with fewer people, successful companies don't need as many workers. The most valuable company in the U. S． in 1964, AT & T had 758, 611 employees; while the most valuable company today, Apple, has around 137, 000 employees. Though today's big companies make billions of dollars, they share that income with fewer employees, and more of their profit goes to shareholders.”
In a world where being an employee becomes increasingly less secure, the question you must ask yourself is, “What will be valued in the future when it comes to work？”
My belief is that a core skill set will be in high demand. That skill set is problem solving.
If you want to survive in an increasingly automated world, you must come to terms with the fact that problems will never go away. No matter how many times you find a solution to one problem, another one will appear. But, if you also understand that the process of solving problems is what makes you rich, you'll welcome problems when they come into your life or when you see them in the lives of others. Once you start solving not only your own problems but also the problems of others, you become in high demand.
Today, I encourage you to begin looking at the world as one filled with possibilities of problems to be solved and profited from. Start with the simple question, “What's my problem？” And work from there. Chances are that if you solve your own problems, you'll begin to solve others' problems too.
5．What's the main idea of the first paragraph
A．More work is done by robots.
B．Robots are good at service work.
C．Robots can do the work faster.
D．Humans are totally replaced by robots.
6．What does Alana Semuels intend to show by comparing Apple with AT & T
A．Companies make more money.
B．Fewer employees are needed.
C．Being an employee is more difficult.
D．More people benefit from technology.
7．How should we deal with problems according to the author
A．Ignore them wisely.
B．Avoid them at all costs.
C．Accept them willingly.
D．Predict them in advance.
8．What's the purpose of the last paragraph
A．To give a warning.
B．To offer a comment.
C．To draw a conclusion.
D．To make a suggestion.
