21、

With your support today UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, can step up operations in Ukraine and neighboring countries to help people who are forced to flee their homes to escape the military action. Will you help civilians who are forced to flee? £80 could help provide emergency relief items such as shelter, bedding and tarpaulins.

To give £80 now, visit unrefugees.org. uk/ukraine-economist, call 0800-029-3883 or fill out and return the donation form.

The number of displaced people, both within Ukraine itself and in neighboring countries, is still growing every day. Families fleeing can only take so much with them. They will need support to survive far from home in incredibly difficult and dangerous conditions.

UNHCR's RESPONSE

UNHCR has worked in Ukraine since 1994 and has not left since. There are six UNHCR offices across the country, as well as three warehouses storing humanitarian supplies. Over 100 UNHCR staff are working in Ukraine to get support to families, with a similar number in neighboring countries and more set to follow. UN High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi said:

“Hour by hour, minute by minute, more people are fleeing the terrifying reality of violence. Countless have been displaced inside the country. And unless there is an immediate end to the conflict, millions more are likely to be forced to flee Ukraine. . .

“Inside Ukraine, our staff--and other humanitarians--are working where and when they can in frightening conditions. Our staff stay, even at great risk , because we know the needs in the country are huge. . . UNHCR staff have already moved in throughout the region and are scaling up our protection and assistance programmes for refugees, in support of host governments. ”

YOU CAN HELP NOW

The support of people like you has helped UNHCR send relief items in by land and by air, but the needs are huge, and growing every day. UNHCR urgently needs more resources.

22、Mystery of Evolution

Following the outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia(NCP), also named COVID-19 by WHO, there is a general fear of the unknown virus as its full effects remain to be seen. Fever, coughing, sore throat, difficulty breathing-the NCP's symptoms are similar to the common cold or the flu. but it's potentially more dangerous.

Viruses could be deadly, like HIV and Ebola (埃博拉) . But what are viruses? How can they cause so much trouble? Viruses are non-living organisms (有机体) approximately one-millionth of an inch long. Unlike human cells or bacteria, they can't reproduce on their own. 【1】 

Viruses can infect every living thing-from plants and animals down to the smallest bacteria. For this reason, they always have the potential to be dangerous to human life. Sometimes a virus can cause a disease so serious that it is fatal. Other viral infections cause no noticeable reaction. Viruses lie around our environment all of the time, waiting for a host cell to come along. They can eater our bodies by the nose, mouth, eyes or breaks in the skin. 【2】For example, HIV, which causes AIDS. attacks the T-cells of the immune system.

But the basic question is, where did viruses first come from?【3】"Tracing the origins of viruses is difficult. " Ed Rybicki, a virologist at the University of Cape Town in South Africa, told Scientific American, "because viruses don't leave fossils (化石) and because of the tricks they use to make copies of themselves within the cells they've invaded." 【4】First, viruses started as independent organisms, then became parasites (寄生者) . Second. viruses evolved from pieces of DNA or RNA that "escaped" from larger organisms. Third, viruses co-evolved with their host cells, which means they existed alongside these cells.

For the time being, these are only theories. The technology and evidence we have today cannot be used to test these theories and identify the most plausible explanation. 【5】 Or future studies may reveal that the answer is even murkier (含糊不清的)  than it now appears.

A.Once inside, they try to find a host cell to infect.

B.Until now, no clear explanation for their origin exists.

C.Continuing studies may provide us with clearer answers.

D.There's pretty strong evidence that this is a bat origin coronavirus.

E.However, there are three main hypotheses (假说) to explain the origin of viruses.

F.Instead, they invade the cells of living organisms to reproduce, spread and take over.

G.Bat is a flying mammal with a long lifespan, whose temperature is high, similar to a fever.

23、   Suppose you placed a baby in a room with a snake and a spider. Would he play with these creatures? Researchers in the study of fear are actively looking into it.

A fear of snake is one of the most common and strongest fears in the world, according to fear researcher, Judy Deloache, of the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, the US, who was not involved in the new study.

Many people believe that we are innately (天生) scared of them, because some snakes are deadly. Seemingly in line with that, 11-month-old babies were shown images of a snake paired with either a fearful or a happy voice. The babies looked at the snakes for longer when a fearful voice was presented than when a happy voice was head. However, the study was not hard proof.

Now, a new study is re-assessing how babies react to snakes. The team measured babies physiological responses (生理反应) as they watched videos of snakes and elephants, paired with both fearful and happy voices. They then set out to startle the babies to see how they would react. They presented them with a “startle research”, which in this case was an unexpected bright flash of light as they watched a video.

“What we found is that their startle responses were not bigger when watching a video of a snake than watching a video of an elephant, even when paired with a fearful voice,” says co-author, Vansessa Lobue, at Rutgers University in New Jersey, the US. Instead, the babies’ startle response was actually lower. Their heart response was also lower, which also indicates that babies were not scared. In other words, though the babies paid more attention to the snakes, this did not cause fear.

Children do not have an innate fear of snakes, agrees Deloache. “It’s not proper to have any hard-wired (硬连线的) fear,” she says, because it would limit a baby’s desire to explore new things.

【1】The study mentioned in the third paragraph was designed to test whether________.

A．snakes are deadly to people

B．people have an innate fear of snakes

C．babies are more interested in living things

D．a fear of snakes is the most common fear in the world

【2】What can we learn about the first study from the text?

A．Babies would cry when they heard a fearful voice

B．Judy was one of the researchers in the study.

C．The study cannot be regarded as hard proof.

D．Babies prefer happy voices to fearful ones.

【3】The underlined word “startle” in the fourth paragraph means “________”.

A．scare

B．call

C．ask

D．hit

【4】What were the babies’ responses in the second study?

A．They were very afraid of the snakes.

B．Their startle responses became bigger.

C．They were more interested in the light than in the snakes.

D．Their heart response became lower when watching a video of a snake.

24、We have heard some interesting ways that 5G wireless technology might change our lives in the future.

5G short for the 5th generation mobile communication technology, promises Internet speeds between 50 to 100 times faster than current 4G systems. While 5G is set to be used in some limited areas of America this year, much of the world is not expected to receive widely available service until 2023.

One project in Britain, however, is already testing this super fast technology on an unlikely group of Internet users—cows. The project was developed by American technology company Cisco Systems. It also receives money from the British government. Cisco says the program seeks to explore the future of 5G connectivity in rural areas around the world.

Testing areas were set up at farms in three rural areas of England. The cows are equipped with 5G-connected devices (装置) that link up to a robotic milking system, which uses sensors (传感器) and machine learning to fully automate the process. System designers say technology takes over after a cow feels ready to be milked and walks toward an automatic gate. The device is designed to recognize each individual cow. It then positions equipment to the right body position for milking. During the process, machines release food for the cow as a reward.

Other 5G technology tools include automated brushes that turn on when the cow rubs up against them. Sensors also control the amount of light to the cows’ living areas depending on the weather. And an automatic feeding system makes sure the animals always get enough to eat.

Duncan Forbes, head of the project, told Reuters that the project shows the farm’s cow operations can be greatly improved with 5G technology and that the experiment provides strong evidence that 5G technology can be widely used in the future, not just on farms in Britain, but in rural communities across the world.

【1】What is the purpose of Cisco Systems’ program?

A．To win financial support from British government.

B．To test the effects of 5G technology on animals.

C．To promote its technological development in Britain.

D．To expand the future use of 5G in rural communities.

【2】What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?

A．The company.

B．The project.

C．The technology.

D．The group.

【3】What can we learn about 5G according to the text?

A．It is no worse than 4G in terms of speed.

B．It enables cows to control their own milking.

C．It is already widely available in the world.

D．It makes cows eat less and milk more than before.

【4】In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?

A．Entertainment.

B．Lifestyle.

C．Technology.

D．Education.
