I don’t think I can recall a time whenI wasn’t aware of the beauty of the ocean. Growing up inAustralia, I had the good fortune of having the sea at my side. The first time I went toHalfmoonBay,I suddenly had the feeling of not being able to feel the ground with my feet anymore.

For my 10th birthday, my sister and I were taken out to theGreat Barrier Reef. There were fish in different color1 s, caves and layers of coral. They made such an impression on me. When I learned that only one percent ofAustralia’sCoral Seawas protected, I was shocked. Australian marine (海洋的) life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than any other country on earth. But sadly, only 45% of the world’s reefs are considered healthy.

This statistic is depressing, so it’s important for usto do everything to protect them. The hope that theCoral Searemains a complete ecosystem has led me to take action. I’ve become involved with the Protect Our Coral Sea activity, which aims to create the largest marine park in the world. It would serve as a place where the ocean’s species will all have a safe place forever.

Together, Angus and I created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be part of the movement. Angus also shares many beautiful childhood memories of the ocean as a young boy, who grew up sailing, admiring the beauty of the ocean, and trying to find the secrets of ocean species. 4. What can we learn about the author from the underlined sentence inPara. 1? A. He seldom went surfing at the sea. B. He forgot his experiences about the ocean. C. He never went back to his hometown.

D. He had a wonderful impression ofHalfmoonBay.

5. What is Australian marine life like according to the second paragraph? A. It is escaping from theCoral Seagradually.

B. It depends on reefs for living greatly. C. It may be faced with danger.

D. It is protected better than that in other oceans.

6. What’s the purpose of The Protect Our Coral Sea activity? A. It is intended to contribute to a complete ecosystem.

B. It is intended to prevent more marine species being endangered. C. It is intended to set up a large nature reserve for reefs.

D. It is intended to raise more teenagers’ environmental awareness. 7. Why do Angus and the author create a little video?

A. To urge more people to take action toprotect the marine species. B. To inspire more people to explore the secret of the ocean. C. To share their childhood experiences about the ocean. D. To bring back to people their memory of ocean species.

A Virginia teen is doing his part to make sure frontline health care workers are getting the meals they need to help them take care of themselves and others.

Arul Nigam, 17, of Tyson's Corner, Va. , has had to make several adjustments since his school year ended abruptly in mid-March due to the coronavirus pandemic(新冠疫情).“We didn'thave any classes for like over a month and then after that there were a lot of technical difficulties. So I started to have a lot more free time,” he tells Yahoo Life. “It was really saddening, but it was also something that really surprised me, that our health care workers are facing something like that,” Nigam says. “So I wanted to see what I could do to help them because obviously, they're sacrificing so much and giving so much for all of us. ”

In late March, the teen started fundraising efforts with the help of friends and family to help these health care workers receive much-needed meals.

So far, Nigam has delivered over 1,000 meals to 22 hospitals in 13 states, including New York, Massachusetts and Maryland.

Nigam's efforts have not only helped health care workers, but restaurants as well. With quarantine restrictionstaking a toll onthe food industry, places like Best Coast Burrito in Oakland, Calif. , have lost business over the last few weeks.

Getting drunk on ice cream used to be the stuff of dreams, but thanks to Will Rogers, inventor and owner of WDS Dessert Stations in Hinkley, Illinois, it has become a delicious reality. The Below Zero icecream machine uses a unique technique to freeze alcohol, which allows you to turn beers, cocktails and even spirits (烈酒) into delicious soft —serve ice cream.

Rogers was trying to create a highly — caffeinated espresso ice cream flavor when he realized hecould use the same technique with alcoholic beverages. He started experimenting with various gums and stabilizers commonly used in the ice cream industry and eventually patented something called the NEA gel. It’s this magical concoction (调制品) that allows the alcohol to freeze to a near solid inside the Below Zero ice cream machine.

Even though Below Zero changes the texture (质地) of beer, cocktails and even spirits, essentially turning them into soft —serve ice cream, it does not affect the alcohol contentat all. The ABV (酒精度) remains exactly the same, which means you can get drunk on ice — cream just as you would on the same concoctions in liquid form.

Will Rogers claims that it takes around 30 minutes for beer to go from liquid to ice cream form, but higher alcohol content drinks take longer. Essentially, the higher the alcohol level, the longer the wait.

The American inventor plans to sell Below Zero ice cream machines to bars and breweries wanting to surprise their patrons. Metro reports that machines will sell for about 6,000.

12. What’s the name of the machine which can change beer and spirits into ice cream? A. Will Rogers B. WDS Dessert Stations C. Hinkley D. Below Zero

13. What makes alcohol to freeze to a near solid inside the machine?

A. gums. B. stabilizers. C. NEA gel. D. ABV. 14. What can we know from the passage?

A. The machine can change all liquids into ice cream. B. It takes 20 minutes for beer to change into ice cream. C. The higher the alcohol level, the shorter the wait will be.

D. The machine changes the texture of beer, cocktails and even spirits. 15. What can we infer from the passage? A. The machine affects the alcohol content.

B. You can get drunk if you have ice—creams made from spirits. C. The American inventor doesn’t want to sell themagical machine. D. Bars and breweries will not become potential buyers of the machine. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
