It was tiring and time consuming for her but she didn’t have a choice because of her financial situation. Everything changed when something unexpected happened.
She was walking home from work and she decided to stop at the gas station to grab a snack. However, before she could set her foot inside, she noticed something out of the ordinary. She looked down on the ground and found a plastic bag with a large sum of money in it. She was shocked to see how much money was inside the plastic bag but she wouldn’t take it. As a grandmother of two, she knew exactly what to do.
She did what she knew was right and called the police. It didn’t take long for the police officers to find the owners of the money since there were cards with their address. It turned out that the money was owned by a couple who got married earlier that day. The cash Dianne found was a total of $ 14,780 and the police returned it to the couple who owned it.
Dianne’s honesty made a great impact on the police officers as well as their families. A police officer’s wife set up a GoFundMe to help Dianne, hoping that a lot of people would be touched by her kindness. The GoFundMe has raised over $ 60 ,000.
Dianne received a brand-new Jeep as a reward for her good deed. Dianne said she would like to pay it forward so she was going to give her co-workers a ride when they needed one.She also has some advice for everyone: If you find something that doesn’t belong to you, don’t keep it.

The drone (无人机) is flying above the Amazon River in Brazil, but its battery is running low. Andre Coelho, the chief pilot, guides it back to safety with skills perfected by playing video games. Long hours’ practicing has become a surprising benefit in an effort to conserve dolphins that live in the river. Marcelo Oliveira, a conservation specialist, stands on the bow of a boat. He pulls the white drone from the air, changes the battery, and quickly sends it back in the sky.
Later, scientists will examine the video which has recorded for signs of the two species of dolphins that inhabit the river: the pink and bulbous boto (亚马孙河豚), and the smaller, prettier tucuxi (白海豚). Exactly how many live in the basin is a mystery. Some studies have suggested a decline of the pink dolphins in specific areas of the Amazon River, but the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) says there isn’t enough data available for either species of dolphins. .
“We need to base everything on hard data,” says Miriam Marmontel, a scientist. “We need to focus on what’s really critical to help us get to a real situation that can influence policy. We need numbers. We need information on death and reproduction.
Marmontel’s biggest concern is that dolphins are being caught in the nets of local fishermen. Scientists have also given a warning against fishermen’ s killing botos. Pollution from gold mining is also a concern.
The scientists want to use the information they collect to persuade the IUCN to list the boto and the tucuxi as endangered species. Funding agencies and governments want evidence. Without the IUCN’s categorization, it’s difficult to raise the money for protection measures.
They hope their drone monitoring will do the trick. During three trips to the Amazon last year, the team has recorded about 70 samples (样本) that will contribute to a more accurate estimate of dolphin populations in the Amazon basin.
8. What are Coelho and Oliveira doing in the Amazon River
A. Testing the drone they designed for fun. B. Recording the video of the flowing river.
C. Collecting data on dolphins with a drone. D. Playing a video game.
9. What can make Miriam Marmontel worry most according to the text
A. The fishermen’ s living conditions. B. The money for protection measures.
C. The pollution from the gold mining. D. The dolphins being caught by fishermen.
10. What is the purpose of the drone monitoring
A. To raise money to protect the Amazon basin.
B. To find evidence for the need to take measures.
C. To urge governments to record Amazon species.
D. To get an exact number of species in the Amazon.
11. What is the author’s attitude to the drone monitoring in the text
A. Indifferent. B. Negative. C. Approving. D. Unclear.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家们正努力收集亚马孙河里海豚的数据，以促使相关机构采取措施保护海豚。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Long hours’ practicing has become a surprising benefit in an effort to conserve dolphins that live in the river.(长时间的练习已经成为保护生活在河里的海豚的一个惊人的好处)”和第二段中的“Later, scientists will examine the video which has recorded for signs of the two species of dolphins that inhabit the river: the pink and bulbous boto (亚马孙河豚), and the smaller, prettier tucuxi (白海豚).( 随后，科学家们将研究这段录像，以寻找生活在这条河上的两种海豚的踪迹：粉色和球茎的水豚，以及体型更小、更漂亮的土曲豚)”可知，科学家们研究无人机拍摄的录像训中生活在这条河上的两种海豚的踪迹。由此推知，他们正在利用无人机收集海豚的信息。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Marmontel’s biggest concern is that dolphins are being caught in the nets of local fishermen.(Marmontel最担心的是海豚被当地渔民的渔网捕获)”可知，Marmontel最担心的是海豚会被当地渔民的渔网捕获。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The scientists want to use the information they collect to persuade the IUCN to list the boto and the tucuxi as endangered species. Funding agencies and governments want evidence. Without the IUCN’s categorization, it’s difficult to raise the money for protection measures.( 科学家们希望利用他们收集到的信息来说服世界自然保护联盟将狐猴和土兔列为濒危物种。资助机构和政府需要证据。如果没有世界自然保护联盟的分类，就很难筹集到保护措施的资金)”可知，科学家们希望利用他们收集的信息说服IUCN把亚马孙河豚和白海豚列为濒危物种，这样就可以为保护它们筹集资金了。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“They hope their drone monitoring will do the trick. During three trips to the Amazon last year, the team has recorded about 70 samples (样本) that will contribute to a more accurate estimate of dolphin populations in the Amazon basin.(他们希望他们的无人机监控能起到作用。在去年的三次亚马逊之旅中，研究小组记录了大约70个样本，这将有助于更准确地估计亚马逊盆地的海豚数量)”可知，科学家们希望他们的无人机监测能起作用，无人机的记录有助于更准确地估计亚马孙盆地的海豚数量。由此推知，作者对无人机监测应该持赞同的态度。故选C项

A small robot that can change its shape and produce heat shows potential in targeting cancer cells and preventing internal bleeding. It can also be used for delivering drugs directly to tumors (肿瘤) or inaccessible areas within the human body.
Researchers, led by Ren Hao Soon at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart, Germany, developed a centimeter-sized robot inspired by pangolins (穿山甲). It is constructed with soft and magnetic ( 磁性的) materials, allowing the robot to change its shape.
To enable movement, shape shifting, and heat generation, the researchers applied magnetic fields to the robot’s metal parts. By adjusting the frequency of these fields, the robot was able to heat up and give out heat into its surroundings. The team observed that the robot’s body temperature could be over 70℃.
In addition, the researchers used the robot’s heat to deliver substances within a simulated (模拟的) stomach environment. They attached something simulating medicine capsules onto the robot, which dissolved upon heating, thereby releasing the goods. This technique holds promise for targeted drug delivery inside the body.
Soon, his team also tested the robot’s ability to halt bleeding. They created wounds using a dead pig’s stomach. By pumping blood through a small incision using a syringe, they simulated bleeding. Subsequently, the robot extended and covered the area, giving out heat to help stop bleeding.
According to Jake Abbott from the University of Utah, the robot could potentially be employed for targeted destruction of tumor cells, reducing the need for exposing large amounts of tissue to radiation or chemicals. By raising the robot’s temperature to a level unsafe for normal cells and keeping it in place for a few minutes, cancer cells can be killed. Abbott emphasizes the high temperature sensitivity of the human body.
12. What can we infer about the small robot
A. It has been put into use.
B. It is mainly used to deliver goods.
C. It draws inspiration from the natural world.
D. It can’t be used without adding hard elements.
13. How do the researchers make the robot change shape
A. By using heat. B. By using magnets.
C. By using radiation. D. By using chemicals.
14. What does the underlined word“halt” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Stop. B. Challenge. C. Evaluate. D. Explore.
15. Which can be the best title for the text
A. A Tiny Robot Will Be Used In Medicine
B. Scientists Will Make Robots Give Out Heat
C. A Small Robot Was Made To Deliver Goods
D. Doctors Have Used Tiny Robots To Cure Tumors
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. A
【解析】

Jason told him,“Hey, what are you talking about I can’t let you do that. That’s too much.”But the young man insisted on paying for Jason.
Jason wanted to pay the young man back, but he got so excited with the young man’s act of kindness that he did not get the young man’s name. He should have been with his pen and paper asking,“What’s your name What’s your number ”But he didn’t think it proper to do so. As a result, he just asked to take a photo with the stranger and later posted it on the Internet to find him and thank him,
“Much respect for this young gentleman,“ Jason wrote, explaining his experience with the kind stranger.
Jason’s friend recognized the young man, The young man is Kevin Jones. Jason got Kevin’s number and invited him to a gathering. To his joy, Kevin accepted his invitation and took part in the gathering.
They called it Family Day and they cooked a lot of food and invited some of Jason’s friends and cousins.
Kevin told Jason that he helped him because he experienced the same thing. At that time,he experienced having his debit card refused, and he had to return the groceries (食品杂货).He knew the feeling when people experience such things and didn’t want Jason to have to go through that.

For the past year, Dianne has been walking 2. 7 miles to the marketplace down Highland Road where she works. She used to do it five times a week since her car broke down last year.

The drone (无人机) is flying above the Amazon River in Brazil, but its battery is running low. Andre Coelho, the chief pilot, guides it back to safety with skills perfected by playing video games. Long hours’ practicing has become a surprising benefit in an effort to conserve dolphins that live in the river. Marcelo Oliveira, a conservation specialist, stands on the bow of a boat. He pulls the white drone from the air, changes the battery, and quickly sends it back in the sky.
Later, scientists will examine the video which has recorded for signs of the two species of dolphins that inhabit the river: the pink and bulbous boto (亚马孙河豚), and the smaller, prettier tucuxi (白海豚). Exactly how many live in the basin is a mystery. Some studies have suggested a decline of the pink dolphins in specific areas of the Amazon River, but the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) says there isn’t enough data available for either species of dolphins. .
“We need to base everything on hard data,” says Miriam Marmontel, a scientist. “We need to focus on what’s really critical to help us get to a real situation that can influence policy. We need numbers. We need information on death and reproduction.
Marmontel’s biggest concern is that dolphins are being caught in the nets of local fishermen. Scientists have also given a warning against fishermen’ s killing botos. Pollution from gold mining is also a concern.
The scientists want to use the information they collect to persuade the IUCN to list the boto and the tucuxi as endangered species. Funding agencies and governments want evidence. Without the IUCN’s categorization, it’s difficult to raise the money for protection measures.
They hope their drone monitoring will do the trick. During three trips to the Amazon last year, the team has recorded about 70 samples (样本) that will contribute to a more accurate estimate of dolphin populations in the Amazon basin.
8 What are Coelho and Oliveira doing in the Amazon River
A. Testing the drone they designed for fun. B. Recording the video of the flowing river.
C. Collecting data on dolphins with a drone. D. Playing a video game.
9. What can make Miriam Marmontel worry most according to the text
A. The fishermen’ s living conditions. B. The money for protection measures.
C. The pollution from the gold mining. D. The dolphins being caught by fishermen.
10. What is the purpose of the drone monitoring
A. To raise money to protect the Amazon basin.
B. To find evidence for the need to take measures.
C. To urge governments to record Amazon species.
D. To get an exact number of species in the Amazon.
11. What is the author’s attitude to the drone monitoring in the text
A. Indifferent. B. Negative. C. Approving. D. Unclear.
D
A small robot that can change its shape and produce heat shows potential in targeting cancer cells and preventing internal bleeding. It can also be used for delivering drugs directly to tumors (肿瘤) or inaccessible areas within the human body.
Researchers, led by Ren Hao Soon at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart, Germany, developed a centimeter-sized robot inspired by pangolins (穿山甲). It is constructed with soft and magnetic ( 磁性的) materials, allowing the robot to change its shape.
To enable movement, shape shifting, and heat generation, the researchers applied magnetic fields to the robot’s metal parts. By adjusting the frequency of these fields, the robot was able to heat up and give out heat into its surroundings. The team observed that the robot’s body temperature could be over 70℃.
In addition, the researchers used the robot’s heat to deliver substances within a simulated (模拟的) stomach environment. They attached something simulating medicine capsules onto the robot, which dissolved upon heating, thereby releasing the goods. This technique holds promise for targeted drug delivery inside the body.
Soon, his team also tested the robot’s ability to halt bleeding. They created wounds using a dead pig’s stomach. By pumping blood through a small incision using a syringe, they simulated bleeding. Subsequently, the robot extended and covered the area, giving out heat to help stop bleeding.
According to Jake Abbott from the University of Utah, the robot could potentially be employed for targeted destruction of tumor cells, reducing the need for exposing large amounts of tissue to radiation or chemicals. By raising the robot’s temperature to a level unsafe for normal cells and keeping it in place for a few minutes, cancer cells can be killed. Abbott emphasizes the high temperature sensitivity of the human body.
12. What can we infer about the small robot
A It has been put into use.
B. It is mainly used to deliver goods.
C. It draws inspiration from the natural world.
