一、阅读理解
A
The number of fish caught just outside a recently expanded marine (海洋) protected area in Hawaii has risen. It is a sign that quadrupling (四倍) the size of the reserve in 2016 may have shored fish populations in the region.
When the Marine National Monument around Hawaii was enlarged to 1,510,000 square kilometers, marine conservationists around the world rejoiced.
Fishers may have felt differently, however, as fishing inside the area is not allowed. Yet by creating a space for dwindling tuna populations to recover, supporters argued, the reserve would benefit fisheries as well.
As populations inside the reserve boundaries steadily increased, they predicted, the fish would spill (溢出) over into the surrounding areas, increasing the amount of tuna available to catch.
Proving that is tricky, however, as tuna can’t be counted directly. Their numbers may rise or fall for a variety of reasons other than the expansion of a reserve. But the new study, published in Science this week, strongly suggests the number of fish caught just outside the MPA is higher now than it used to be.
Alan Friedlander, chief scientist for the National Geographic Society’s Pristine Seas project, calls the study a “very careful and strict test of spillover from marine protected areas.”
Importantly, says John Lynham, an environmental economist at the University of Hawaii and one of the study’s authors, the increase in tuna catches near the reserve held up even when looking at the average numbers caught by particular fishers. This shows the effect is not due to more effective crews now fishing local waters, he explains. To account for effort, catch numbers were divided by the ever-increasing number of fishing hooks in the area.
Lynham and colleagues found the catch per hook increased over the 10 years of the study. Fishers were catching on average six more yellowfin and five more bigeye tuna per year after the expansion than before.
“That last one, especially, was a surprise,” says Lynham, “because it is economically much more important, and there were fewer indications of an increase.”
1. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. The rising number of fish caught is a sign of a well-reserved area.
B. Enlarge the size of reserve may contribute to the increasing of fish population.
C. The number of fish caught has risen to quadrupling (四倍) the size of that in 2016.
D. Fish catching outside the reserve does good to the expanded marine protected area.
2. How did fishers feel when the reserve announced expanded
A. They felt joyful. B. They felt different.
C. They felt unpleasant. D. They felt excited.
3. How do the researchers prove the tuna population has increased
A. By figuring the average catch per hook in the area.
B. By summing up the catch of mare effective crews.
C. By looking at the numbers caught by particular fishers.
D. By detecting the number of tuna population in the surrounding area.
4. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Tuna population embraces a boost
B. Marine Protected Areas Help Fisheries
C. Local fisheries hold a promising future
D. Tuna population can be counted scientifically
B
The motivation for his invention came to Aarrav Anil last year when he saw his uncle Arjun, who has Parkinson’s disease, struggle to eat. Some food spilled (溢出) out of his mouth, the rest splattered (溅) on his clothes. Arjun attempted to keep his dignity but the frustration forced him to give up and call his helper to feed him.
The sight of his uncle’s shaking the spoon so violently inspired Aarrav, 17, from Bengaluru, south India, to turn to robotics. He locked himself in his room with microcontrollers, sensors, motors, and a 3D printer. What emerged was a prototype (原型) of a smart spoon that is now undergoing trials at the RV College of Physiotherapy in Bengaluru.
The sensors in the battery-operated spoon detect shaking on one side and activate movement on the other, effectively cancelling out shaking to keep the spoon stable.
“I’ve been fine tuning the design based on the college’s feedback-that it needs to be waterproof so that it can be washed without damaging all the electronics inside; that it must be removable so it can be cleaned and replaced by a fork, ” Aarrav says.
For Aarrav it is the peak of a 10-year interest in mechanics that began when his mother bought him a Lego set. He has now represented India at more than 20 robotics competitions across the world.
When the blueprint for the smart spoon won first prize in the future innovators category at last year’s World Robot Olympiad in Germany, Aarrav felt encouraged to make the prototype.
More than 7 million people in India are estimated to have Parkinson’s disease, a condition in which parts of the brain become progressively damaged and which mainly affects people over the age of 50. Symptoms (症状) include involuntary shaking and stiff muscles. As the disease progresses, eating can become more difficult, forcing people to rely on help from others.
Aarrav’s ambition is that every family that has someone with Parkinson’s will have the smart spoon. He says his uncle Arjun’s words keep echoing (回响) in his mind: “Who would have thought such a small thing could mean the difference between dignity and indignity ”
5. What can Aarrav’s invention help people with Parkinson’s do
A. Control their physical balance. B. Boost their mood and relieve stress.
C. Maintain a good range of movement. D. Feed themselves more independently.
6. What does the underlined part “fine tuning” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Overturning. B. Reconsidering.
C. Conducting a study of. D. Making minor changes to.
7. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Parkinson’s in India
A. To show prospects of Aarrav’s invention.
B. To reveal the nation’s poor health situation.
C. To popularize general knowledge of the disease.
D. To convince people to volunteer for social causes.
8. What can be learned about Aarrav from the text
A. He enjoys being alone. B. He has an innovative mind.
C. He used to be a health worker. D. He longed to be a businessman.

【语篇导读】：本文的语篇类型是说明文，主题语境为人与自我。文章介绍了随着夏威夷海洋保护区的扩大，区域外捕获的鱼类数量有所增加，以及扩大保护区所带来的好处。
1. B 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The number of fish caught just outside a recently expanded marine (海洋) protected area in Hawaii has risen. It is a sign that quadrupling (四倍) the size of the reserve in 2016 may have shored fish populations in the region.(最近在夏威夷扩大的海洋保护区外捕获的鱼类数量有所增加。这表明，2016年保护区的规模翻了两番，可能已经增加了该地区的鱼类数量)”可知，第一段主要是关于扩大保护区的规模可能有助于鱼类种群的增加。
2. C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“When the Marine National Monument around Hawaii was enlarged to 1,510,000 square kilometers, marine conservationists around the world rejoiced (当夏威夷附近的海洋国家纪念碑扩大到151万平方公里时，全世界的海洋保护主义者都欢欣鼓舞)”及第三段中的“Fishers may have felt differently, however, as fishing inside the area is not allowed.(然而，渔民们可能会有不同的感受，因为在该地区捕鱼是不允许的)”可知，渔民对于保护区的扩张并不觉得开心，因为保护区内无法捕捞。
3. A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Lynham and colleagues found the catch per hook increased over the 10 years of the study. Fishers were catching on average six more yellowfin and five more bigeye tuna per year after the expansion than before.(林纳姆和同事们发现，在10年的研究中，每个鱼钩的渔获量有所增加。在扩张之后，渔民平均每年多捕获6条黄鳍金枪鱼和5条大眼金枪鱼)”可知，研究人员是通过每个鱼钩上的增加的渔获量来判断金枪鱼的数量是增长的。
4. B主旨大意题。根据第一段“The number of fish caught just outside a recently expanded marine (海洋) protected area in Hawaii has risen.

6. D 词句猜测题。由文章划线词后“the design based on the college’s feedback-that it needs to be waterproof so that it can be washed without damaging all the electronics inside; that it must be removable so it can be cleaned and replaced by a fork (根据学院的反馈，它需要防水，这样在清洗时不会损坏里面的所有电子设备；它必须是可拆卸的，这样就可以清洁和更换叉子)”可知，Aarrav根据学院的反馈对智能勺子进行调整，所以划线词的意思是“调整”。A. Overturning倾覆；B. Reconsidering重新考虑；C. Conducting a study of进行研究； D. Making minor changes to对进行微小更改。

The number of fish caught just outside a recently expanded marine (海洋) protected area in Hawaii has risen. It is a sign that quadrupling (四倍) the size of the reserve in 2016 may have shored fish populations in the region.
When the Marine National Monument around Hawaii was enlarged to 1,510,000 square kilometers, marine conservationists around the world rejoiced.
Fishers may have felt differently, however, as fishing inside the area is not allowed. Yet by creating a space for dwindling tuna populations to recover, supporters argued, the reserve would benefit fisheries as well.
As populations inside the reserve boundaries steadily increased, they predicted, the fish would spill (溢出) over into the surrounding areas, increasing the amount of tuna available to catch.
Proving that is tricky, however, as tuna can’t be counted directly. Their numbers may rise or fall for a variety of reasons other than the expansion of a reserve. But the new study, published in Science this week, strongly suggests the number of fish caught just outside the MPA is higher now than it used to be.
Alan Friedlander, chief scientist for the National Geographic Society’s Pristine Seas project, calls the study a “very careful and strict test of spillover from marine protected areas.”
Importantly, says John Lynham, an environmental economist at the University of Hawaii and one of the study’s authors, the increase in tuna catches near the reserve held up even when looking at the average numbers caught by particular fishers. This shows the effect is not due to more effective crews now fishing local waters, he explains. To account for effort, catch numbers were divided by the ever-increasing number of fishing hooks in the area.
Lynham and colleagues found the catch per hook increased over the 10 years of the study. Fishers were catching on average six more yellowfin and five more bigeye tuna per year after the expansion than before.

The motivation for his invention came to Aarrav Anil last year when he saw his uncle Arjun, who has Parkinson’s disease, struggle to eat. Some food spilled (溢出) out of his mouth, the rest splattered (溅) on his clothes. Arjun attempted to keep his dignity but the frustration forced him to give up and call his helper to feed him.
The sight of his uncle’s shaking the spoon so violently inspired Aarrav, 17, from Bengaluru, south India, to turn to robotics. He locked himself in his room with microcontrollers, sensors, motors, and a 3D printer. What emerged was a prototype (原型) of a smart spoon that is now undergoing trials at the RV College of Physiotherapy in Bengaluru.
The sensors in the battery-operated spoon detect shaking on one side and activate movement on the other, effectively cancelling out shaking to keep the spoon stable.
“I’ve been fine tuning the design based on the college’s feedback-that it needs to be waterproof so that it can be washed without damaging all the electronics inside; that it must be removable so it can be cleaned and replaced by a fork, ” Aarrav says.
For Aarrav it is the peak of a 10-year interest in mechanics that began when his mother bought him a Lego set. He has now represented India at more than 20 robotics competitions across the world.
When the blueprint for the smart spoon won first prize in the future innovators category at last year’s World Robot Olympiad in Germany, Aarrav felt encouraged to make the prototype.
More than 7 million people in India are estimated to have Parkinson’s disease, a condition in which parts of the brain become progressively damaged and which mainly affects people over the age of 50. Symptoms (症状) include involuntary shaking and stiff muscles. As the disease progresses, eating can become more difficult, forcing people to rely on help from others.
Aarrav’s ambition is that every family that has someone with Parkinson’s will have the smart spoon. He says his uncle Arjun’s words keep echoing (回响) in his mind: “Who would have thought such a small thing could mean the difference between dignity and indignity ”
5. What can Aarrav’s invention help people with Parkinson’s do
A. Control their physical balance. B. Boost their mood and relieve stress.
C. Maintain a good range of movement. D. Feed themselves more independently.
6. What does the underlined part “fine tuning” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Overturning. B. Reconsidering.
C. Conducting a study of. D. Making minor changes to.
7. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Parkinson’s in India
A. To show prospects of Aarrav’s invention.
B. To reveal the nation’s poor health situation.
C. To popularize general knowledge of the disease.
D. To convince people to volunteer for social causes.
8. What can be learned about Aarrav from the text
A. He enjoys being alone. B. He has an innovative mind.
C. He used to be a health worker. D. He longed to be a businessman.

【A篇】
【语篇导读】：本文的语篇类型是说明文，主题语境为人与自我。文章介绍了随着夏威夷海洋保护区的扩大，区域外捕获的鱼类数量有所增加，以及扩大保护区所带来的好处。
1. B 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The number of fish caught just outside a recently expanded marine (海洋) protected area in Hawaii has risen. It is a sign that quadrupling (四倍) the size of the reserve in 2016 may have shored fish populations in the region.(最近在夏威夷扩大的海洋保护区外捕获的鱼类数量有所增加。这表明，2016年保护区的规模翻了两番，可能已经增加了该地区的鱼类数量)”可知，第一段主要是关于扩大保护区的规模可能有助于鱼类种群的增加。
2. C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“When the Marine National Monument around Hawaii was enlarged to 1,510,000 square kilometers, marine conservationists around the world rejoiced (当夏威夷附近的海洋国家纪念碑扩大到151万平方公里时，全世界的海洋保护主义者都欢欣鼓舞)”及第三段中的“Fishers may have felt differently, however, as fishing inside the area is not allowed.(然而，渔民们可能会有不同的感受，因为在该地区捕鱼是不允许的)”可知，渔民对于保护区的扩张并不觉得开心，因为保护区内无法捕捞。
3. A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Lynham and colleagues found the catch per hook increased over the 10 years of the study. Fishers were catching on average six more yellowfin and five more bigeye tuna per year after the expansion than before.(林纳姆和同事们发现，在10年的研究中，每个鱼钩的渔获量有所增加。在扩张之后，渔民平均每年多捕获6条黄鳍金枪鱼和5条大眼金枪鱼)”可知，研究人员是通过每个鱼钩上的增加的渔获量来判断金枪鱼的数量是增长的。
4. B主旨大意题。根据第一段“The number of fish caught just outside a recently expanded marine (海洋) protected area in Hawaii has risen. It is a sign that quadrupling (四倍) the size of the reserve in 2016 may have shored fish populations in the region.(最近在夏威夷扩大的海洋保护区外捕获的鱼类数量有所增加。这表明，2016年保护区的规模翻了两番，可能已经增加了该地区的鱼类数量)”及下文内容可知，文章主要介绍了海洋保护区的扩大会使得周边区域的渔获量增长。由此可知，B项“Marine Protected Areas Help Fisheries.(海洋保护区有助于渔业)”适合作本文最佳标题。
