When Bella Lin was 12 years ld,she nticed that her guinea pigs(豚鼠) seemed unhappy in their small cage with “prisn-like bars”,Lin tld the CNBC Make It website.Fcusing n finding an alternative t traditinal cages fr her pets,the nw 17-year-ld frm Muntain View,US,began her designs.
Lin experimented with multiple designs and used arund $2,000 frm her savings t start her side business,Guinea Lft,n Amazn in Nvember 2022.It made a big difference and sld nearly 11,000 cages and brught in mre than $410,000 in 2023,accrding t CNBC Make It.
Initially,Lin infrmed her father f her desire t develp an imprved cage.Her father had relatins with a family-wned factry in China thrugh a previus client,and he reached ut t them.
Traditinal guinea pig cages typically cnsist f bars,rfs,and either tarp(防水布) r plastic bttms,making them hard t clean and ften smell bad.Lin’s initial glass,pen-flr cages ffered mre visibility and mbility,with a tw-layered bttm.This design allws fr the easy remval f siled bedding by pushing it int a remvable plastic tray(托盤).Hwever,due t high shipping csts,the glass material was impractical,and the pen flr caused prblems fr her smaller guinea pigs,as their feet wuld get stuck.
Lin and her six-persn team in China devted late nights t researching and testing prducts.Her team handled the surcing,manufacturing,packaging and phtgraphy f the prducts.In the end,they chse acrylic,instead f glass,and crafted replaceable bttms,as Lin described it.The bttms are easy t thrw ut,which is gd fr business:Once custmers run ut f the bttms,they have t visit Lin’s Amazn stre again t restck.
“Witnessing the practical effects f Guinea Lft cages thrugh custmer reviews and emails is empwering,” Lin said.“As smene wh nce placed great emphasis n academic recgnitin,the success f my side business has bsted my cnfidence in explring life beynd high schl.”

Have yu ever had the feeling that yu can’t think when there is t much nise arund? Did yu ever think a fish culd experience that feeling t? A recent paper published in Science titled “Sundscape(聲景) f the Anthrpcene Oceans”,cmbined ver 10,000 scientific papers,cnfirming that undersea life knws that exact same feeling,mre ften than nt.Anthrpgenic(人為的) cean nise,als knwn as underwater nise pllutin,has created a dramatic impact n marine life due t “human-caused” activity within and neighbring ur ceans.
Disney Pixar’s animated film Finding Nem educated us abut the cean,and specifically within the rdinary wrld f a clwn fish.A fact many may nt knw is that clwn fish spend the first part f their lives as larvae,drifting with the current f the cean until they becme strng enugh t swim against it.Once they are pwerful and strng,they head hme in sheltered cral reefs.There is nly ne drawback—the fish can’t physically see the reef,but they can hear it.The nly prblem is,if they can’t hear it,will they ever make it hme?
Our anthrpgenic cean nise,such as carg ships,ship and bat prpellers,surfing,deep sea mining,etc.are causing destructin f marine life.Accrding t Time,sund is the sensry signal that travels the farthest thrugh the cean.Anthrpgenic nise drwns ut the natural sundscapes,putting marine life under immense stress.Altgether,this stress then affects their general health,disrupts their behavir,physilgy,reprductin and,in extreme cases,causes death.Marine life can adapt t nise pllutin,hwever,nly if they can escape it.This nly renders further cmplicatins f straying(使偏離) species frm their traditinal breeding regins r separating them frm their families.
Nw,what if we tld yu there is already a slutin? Multiple remedies,ideas and designs are currently in the wrks r already exist t eliminate and reverse the damage f anthrpgenic cean nise.As Time explains,frm wind-pwered ships t nise-reducing prpellers,flating wind turbines and “bubble curtains” that muffle cnstructin nise,the slutins are already available and in sme cases,cst-effective.The authrs f the paper hpe it will catch the attentin f plicymakers,wh histrically speaking,have ignred the matter still t this day.
Of all the challenges cean creatures are battling,luckily sund pllutin is the easiest cmprmise humans can make.Once the nise has decreased,marine life will be able t better manage everything else it is up against.
【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章講述了人為海洋噪聲對海洋生物造成的影響,以及目前存在的解決方案和對未來政策制定者的呼吁。

A.The beauty f marine ecsystems.
B.The urgent need fr cean cnservatin.
C.The impact f climate change n cean nise.
D.The harmful effects f human-generated cean nise.

Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are indicating that accurate quake frecasting may be attainable,thereby casting dubt n the cnventinal wisdm that such an accmplishment is beynd ur capabilities.Researchers at the University f Texas,Austin,created an AI mdel that,during a test run in China,crrectly frecasted apprximately 70 percent f earthquakes with a ne-week warning and ffered reliable assessments f their ptential intensity.
The researchers attribute their technique’s effectiveness t its reliance n a straightfrward machine learning framewrk.The AI was prvided with a set f statistical features based n the team’s knwledge f earthquake physics,and then instructed t train itself using a five-year database f earthquake recrdings.Once trained,the AI ffered predictins by detecting early indicatrs f quakes hidden within the planet’s lw-frequency rumbles(隆隆聲).
The prject marks a substantial breakthrugh in the explratin f AI fr anticipating seismic(地震) events.Accrding t Alexandrs Savvaidis,a senir researcher heading the Texas Seismlgical Netwrk,“Seismic ccurrences strike withut warning,ften in the blink f an eye.Yur readiness is all yu can influence.Achieving a 70% predictin rate is a cnsiderable achievement that culd significantly restrict the impact f earthquakes,reducing bth the financial burden and lss f life,and the ptential t remarkably imprve earthquake preparatin wrldwide.”
Althugh the effectiveness f this methd in different regins remains uncertain,the researchers believe that their AI mdel has the ptential t enhance predictin accuracy when carried ut in regins equipped with dependable seismic mnitring facilities.Their next step is t test artificial intelligence in Texas,where the University f Texas’s TexNet perates a netwrk f 300 earthquake statins and ver six years’ wrth f cntinuus recrds,making it an ideal lcatin fr these purpses.
Ultimately,the authrs aim t cmbine the system with physics-based mdels.This apprach culd be particularly valuable in areas characterized by limited r inadequate data.“That may be a lng way ff,but many advances such as this ne,taken tgether,are what mves science frward,” cncludes Sctt Tinker,the bureau’s directr.
【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要說明了人工智能可以給出準(zhǔn)確的地震預(yù)測,介紹了其工作原理以及意義。
12.Hw des the AI predict seismic events?
A.It identifies data frm the satellites.

C.It mdels data based n earthquake recrdings.
D.It mnitrs changes in the Earth’s magnetic field.
答案 B

14.What des the subsequent research fcus n?
A.Cnducting tests in different lcatins.
B.Applying the AI apprach t ther fields.
C.Building mre earthquake statins in Texas.
D.Enlarging the database t train the calculatin accuracy.
答案 A
解析 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中“Their next step is t lcatin fr these purpses.”可知,接下來的研究重點(diǎn)是在不同地點(diǎn)進(jìn)行測試。
15.Which wrds can best describe the earthquake-predicting technlgy?
A.Stable but utdated.
B.Effective but cstly.

答案與解析
【語篇導(dǎo)讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要解釋了動物遷移這一行為相關(guān)的問題。
16.C 空前提出了一些與動物遷徙相關(guān)的問題,故C項符合,C項中的“these questins”指代空前提出的這幾個問題。
17.F 空后提到了瞪羚、角馬和斑馬等動物在旱季成群結(jié)隊地遷徙,尋找新鮮的食物和水源,故它們遷徙的目的是尋找食物和水源,故F項符合。
18.G 空后提出它們遷徙是為了尋找配偶,或者尋找產(chǎn)卵的地方,或者尋找養(yǎng)育幼崽的最佳地點(diǎn),故G項符合,繁殖的需求讓一些動物踏上了旅程,它們要么是在尋找配偶,要么在尋找產(chǎn)卵的地方,要么尋找養(yǎng)育幼崽的最佳地點(diǎn)。
19.B 空后提出了另外一個問題,什么時候出發(fā),且上文一直在解釋動物遷徙的原因,故B項符合,承上啟下,總結(jié)上文分析的原因,并引出下文遷徙的時間。
20.D 空前和空后都提出了一些動物如何知道自己該去哪里的方法,故D項符合,空前提出一些動物通過地標(biāo)和星星、太陽來幫助自己導(dǎo)航,而空后則具體舉例牛羚是靠聞雨水的味道,故D項可以引出下文。
