Rescue efforts continue in North Africa, a region that has been hit with two major natural disasters. An earthquake struck Morocco on September 8. Two days later, rain brought devastating（毁灭性的）floods to parts of Libya.
The 6.8-magnitude（震级）quake in Morocco was the strongest the country has seen in a century. Some 300,000 people have been affected, according to the UN. Many people have been sleeping outside, having lost their homes, or in case aftershocks cause more buildings to collapse. At press time（发稿时间）, close to 3,000 people had died.
"It's a major disaster," says Salah Ancheu, who lives in the village of Amizmiz, "We don't know what the future is."
There are some people in Morocco who say their government has been too slow in sending help to these villages. Neighbors have had to take action to help one another. "I was asleep when the earthquake struck," says Fatna Bechar, who lives in Moulay Brahim. "I was saved by my neighbors who cleared the rubble（瓦砾）.”
In Libya, floodwaters broke through dams near the port city of Derna on September. The Wadi Derna river overflowed and swept through the city. Floors in apartment buildings collapsed.

Shen Minggang patrols（巡逻）forests in the Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture（自治州）in Hubei Province.
Nearly every day for the past six years, Shen Minggang has patrolled forests in Qishuya Village of Yezhou Township in Jianshi County, Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture in Hubei Province.
Walking an average of 2,800 kilometers a year in areas near the village, the 53-year-old forest ranger is responsible for the management and protection of forest resources, publicizing forest laws and regulations and forest fire prevention.
Covering a vast area, the village is divided into 14 groups, with mountains separated by a river, so every time Shen goes on patrol, he has to take a boat across the water.
He usually set out for the forest before 8:00 a. m. and returns at about 8:00 p. m., carrying some food and water for lunch.
There are more than 2,000 forest rangers like Shen in the county who make significant contributions to local ecological（生态的）protection.
Currently, the county has a total forest area of more than 200,000 hectares and a forest coverage rate of 67.31 percent. In 2020, Yezhou Township was named a provincial-level ecological town.
"I am glad to see the rapid development of our village and the better ecological environment," Shen said. "I will stick to my position as long as the mountains and my fellow villagers need me."
8. What does the underlined word "ranger" mean in Paragraph 3
A. A person who loves forest.
B. A person who prevents forest fire.
C. A person whose job is to manage and protect forest.
9. What can we know about from Paragraph 4
A. The village is made up of 14 groups.
B. Shen Minggang patrols forests by plane.
C. There is a lake flowing through the village.
10. What does Shen Minggang think of his job
A. Boring. B. Meaningful. C. Challenging.
11. Which word best describes Shen Minggang
A. Dedicated. B. Stubborn. C. Talented.
D
It's getting cold out, the days are shorter and soon it'll be winter! Fall means that more than 4 billion birds will stream（鱼贯而行）overhead on their fall migration（迁徙）to warmer grounds down south, where they will feed and mate.
One of my favorite places to see this migration in action is in New Mexico at Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge（保护区）.
The refuge is famous for being a critical stopover（中途停留）for a number of different migrating species, though for me the Sandhill Cranes and snow geese are a fan favorite. Their numbers are so great that they blot out（遮住）the sky. The refuge is about 2 hours south of Albuquerque, which is the biggest city in the state.
I'm a nature photographer and often go to my favorite spots in New Mexico and Texas to witness these bird migrations.
The best times to visit are mid-November through mid-February, but I usually go in mid-December, during the holidays, as I've made it somewhat of a tradition to go with my father, who is also a photographer and lives nearby. We always bring our cameras, and I look forward to our day trip all year long, but I also love our tradition of stopping at the Buckhorn Tavern for a famous green Chile burger at the end of a long day in the field.
Sandhill Cranes are much larger, standing 3-4 feet tall and have a massive wingspan of 6 feet. They breed in Canada, Alaska and Siberia and although they were once almost extinct, they have recovered dramatically because of places like this National Wildlife Refuge. They also have an incredible sound.
12. Why is the National Wildlife Refuge so famous
A. Because it has beautiful natural scenery.
B. Because many migrating birds can be seen here.
C. Because there are valuable plants growing here.
13. What is the author
A. A reporter. B. A photographer. C. A writer.
14. When does the author often go to watch the birds
A. In February. B. In January. C. In December.
15. What can we know about Sandhill Cranes
A. They are about 6 feet tall.
B. They have an amazing sound.
C. The number of them has reduced dramatically.

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, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Whatever your tastes are, it is likely that many of you are using 3D printers to create your favorite meals. Still, anyone interested in the future of food can find technologists printing out snacks, from steaks to cakes, at the push of a button. 16 .
Trials at Columbia University are revealing food can be prepared using a 3D printer and cooked using blue light lasers（激光）. 17 . So far their experiments with chicken have created laser-cooked samples that have the same flavor profile as traditional cooking. "We need a high-level software that enables people to design the foods they want," group leader Hod Lipson said. " 18 . "
19 . The world's first 3D printing restaurant—Food Ink—has served up（端上）treats to diners direct from printer to plate. Meat substitute（替代品）companies combine digital modeling with printing to create meat made purely from plant proteins and fats.
High on the list of advantages is the fact that printed food can be healthier, lower the environmental impact of food production, and cut waste. 20 .
A. Now laser cooking has arrived
B. Food printing and new preparations are going mainstream
C. All of this could well change the way we think about and eat food
D. And then we need a place where people can share digital recipes like we share music.
E. Columbia's Creative Machines Lab team is hoping to build a digital personal chef to deliver food to suit individual tastes
