China has built in Kunming City, Yunnan Province, Germplasm (種質) Bank of WildSpecies, a comprehensive national database for the collection and preservation of wildlifegermplasm resources. As of the end of 2020, the bank preserved 85,046 copies of 10,601wild plant seeds for protecting wildlife germplasm resources. Preserving dried and frozenseeds, the bank provides technological support for the protection and research, makes useof China's wildlife germplasm resources, and plays a major part in international biodiver?sity conservation.

The importance of science and technology for biodiversity conservation is increasinglyobvious. When remote sensor monitoring was not available, agricultural technicians had nochoice but to go for field studies, which could barely meet the need for large?scale, fast andnondestructive (非破壞性的) monitoring of crop conditions and timely prevention and?control of diseases and pests. Nowadays, remote sensor monitoring has been applied in agri?cultural production in China, allowing agricultural technicians to analyze the movements ofinsect pests and evaluate plant diseases and insect pests by monitoring remotely the vege?tation growth, coverage, surface temperature, humidity and other indicators.

In the Internet era, information technology has made the processing of massive datapossible and created wider and more convenient platforms for biodiversity conservation inChina, including Chinese Virtual Herbarium, Plant Photo Bank of China and NationalAnimal Collection Resource Center. The emergence of databases and digital programs inrecent years is driving China to turn around its seriously threatened biodiversity.

From the collection and storage of information to the management and analysis ofresources, the constantly improving biodiversity information network has realized the explo?ration and use of massive biodiversity data, providing a solid foundation for Chinas bio?diversity conservation and research. Biodiversity conservation and science and technologyare inextricable. Only by making science and technology a strong support for biodiversityconservation can humankind guard the Earth and build a beautiful world of harmony amongall beings on the planet.

A. Its crisis. B. Its administration.

C. Its role. D. Its staff.

9. What do researchers hardly need to do with the help of remote sensor monitoring?

A. Evaluate plant diseases and insect pests.

B. Go to fields to control plant diseases.

C. Analyze the tracks of the pests of plants.

D. Satisfy the need to monitor crop conditions.

10. What does the underlined word“ inextricable” in paragraph 4 probably mean?

A. Linked. B. Competitive.

C. Inadequate. D. Inessential.

11. Which can be a suitable title for the text?

A. The Germplasm Bank of Wild Species develops fast

B. Technologies promote Chinese biodiversity protection

C. China has made great efforts to process massive data

D. Information technology contributes much to many fields

For centuries, bigger brains has been considered as a sign of our species unique intel?ligence. The last two million years of our evolution witnessed a significant four times in?crease in brain volume.

But growing evidence suggests our brains recently changed in an unexpected way.They diminished in size sometime after the end of the last Ice Age. This reduction was notinsignificant. The loss of brain tissue is equal to the volume of an egg.

The precise timing of that brain shrink has remained a mystery until now. Initially,many scientists had believed the change happened with the development of farming and ashift from hunting about 10,000 years ago. But a group of researchers, led by DeSilva, useda mixture of fossil and modern subject data to discover that this loss of gray matter hap?pened between 3000 and 5000 years ago. The more?recent dates from DeSilva's grouppointed to the booming of ancient civilizations in North Africa, the Middle East and SouthAmerica as a potential factor.

Researchers proposed that human societies got so cooperatively organized in the past3000 years that they began relying on collective intelligence.“ It is the idea that a group ofpeople is smarter than the smartest person in the group,” said James Traniello, one ofDeSilva's co?authors. This inspiration came from insects such as ants. Ants form highly co?operative societies in which division of labor has favored smaller?brained individuals due toan advanced level of social organization.

The researchers also suggested that as highly social beings, we no longer needed ex?pansive brains to store all information about food, social relationships and the environment.This reliance on social networks and external sources of information, including books andthe Internet, reduced the demand on individual brains.

While human brain volume had remained roughly constant for the past 150,000 years,it rapidly dropped by around 10% in recent millennia (幾千年). The research said it's cru?cial not to confuse brain size with smarts. Instead, it suggests that our brains became moreefficient with better neural connections in a smaller form.“ Like, computers used to be thesize of a room, and now they fit in your pocket,” said DeSilva.

12. According to the research, when did human brains decrease in size?

A. It still remains a mystery. B. During the end of the last Ice Age.

C. Approximately 10,000 years ago. D. Between 3000 and 5000 years ago.

13. Which of the following best explains the underlined words“ collective intelligence” in paragraph 4?

A. Humans in groups are less intelligent.

B. Groups outperform the smartest individual.

C. Individual smarts beat group intelligence.

D. The smartest person handles all group problems.

14. Which is one reason for the reduction in brain size?

A. Humans learned to hunt for food.

B. Humans became more independent.

C. The natural environment changed greatly.

D. Information could be stored externally.

15. Which of the following views would DeSilva probably support?

A. Bigger brains are more efficient.

B. Bigger brains are a sign of intelligence.

C. Brain size and intelligence are not directly related.

D. The smaller the brain, the higher the intelligence.

Decide what youll see on the day.

It was a chilly autumn evening. Sarah, a tired businesswoman, left her workplace anddrove home. When she turned a corner, she spotted a puppy in the middle of the road. Thedog was muddy and trembling. His eyes held a glimmer of both hope and despair. Sarahcouldnt ignore the poor puppy. Approaching him cautiously, she coaxed (哄) him andbrought him home.

Over the next few days, Sarah tried her best to look for the dog's owner, but in vain. Itseemed that the dog had been abandoned, with no collar or tags to identify its owner.

She determined to take care of the dog, which she named Max. She kept him in thebackyard, feeding him, providing water and watching him chase his tail in the yard. Thepuppy trusted her slowly with Sarah's gentle care and patience. Sarah had a happy feelingshe never had before.

As days passed, Sarah became more comfortable with Max's presence. When she wasworking, Max would sit calmly by her side. When she woke up in the morning, Max wouldsit near her bed with a playful bark, demanding his daily walk. The early morning air wascool, and the rising sun cast a warm glow on them. Sarah realized that Max had been a greatcomfort to her.

Then, she would lovingly prepare Max delicious meals. His eyes, once filled with sad?ness, now sparkled with gratitude. He would eagerly follow her around the house wherevershe went.
