21、   A tiny Alaska village has experienced a boom in tourism in recent years as polar bears spend more time on land than on Arctic sea ice.

More than 2,000 people visited the northern Alaska village of Kaktovik in 2018 to see polar bears in the wild. The far north community lies in an area where increasingly higher temperature has sped up the movement of sea ice, the primary habitat(栖息地)of polar bears. As ice has gradually moved to deep water beyond the continental shelft more bears are remaining on land to look for food.

Polar bears have always been a common sight on sea ice near Kaktovik, but villagers started noticing a change in the mid-1990s and reported to the local government. More bears seemed to stay on land, and researchers began taking note of more female bears making homes in the snow on land instead of on the ice to raise their babies. U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologists began hearing reports of the increasing number of polar bears in the area in the early 2000s. As more attention was given to the plight (困境)of polar bears about a decade ago, more tourists started heading to Kaktovik.

The village had fewer than 50 visitors annually before 2011, said Jennifer Reed, of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. "Today we're talking about hundreds and hundreds of visitors, many from around the world each year," Reed said. Most tourists visit in the fall, when bears are forced toward land because sea ice is farthest away from the shore, Bruce Inglangasak, a local hunter who sometimes offers wildlife-viewing tours, said he had been offering polar bear tours since 2004. Most of his clients(客户)are from China and Europe, as well as from the lower 48 U. S. states. Many tourists stay several days in the village, which has two small hotels. The villagers have benefited a lot from that. In turn, they provide more effective protection for polar bears with financial support from tourism development.

【1】What causes more polar bears to stay on land in Kaktovik?

A.Food shortage. B.Climate change.

C.Habitats' movement to shore. D.Their preference for land.

【2】How did villagers feel about more sights of bears on land?

A.Excited. B.Indifferent. C.Concerned. D.Doubtful.

【3】What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A.Hotels in Kaktovik are in demand in autumn.

B.Kaktovik has about 50 visitors annually.

C.Inglangasak makes a living as a tour guide.

D.Tourism affects the balance of nature.

【4】Which saying can describe the text?

A.The fittest can survive. B.After a storm comes a calm.

C.A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. D.Every coin has two sides.

23、Some hearing loss is a common — and nearly unavoidable — effect of aging. A third of people aged 60 and older have lost some of their ability to hear.

But some research suggests a habit that might help offset the effect of aging on hearing. A study found that among middle-aged adults, being a lifelong musician was connected with better hearing later in life.

“The instrument you play does not seem to be important here,” says Nina Kraus, a biologist. “It is really the act of engagement playing the instrument that matters.”

Participants in the study were between ages 45 and 65. Researchers tested 18 musicians who had been playing an instrument since age nine or younger, and 19 non-musicians who had less than three years of music training.

The musicians had statistically better auditory memory scores and tested better at hearing speech in noisy environments. They also showed better auditory processing abilities, which relate to how people interpret speech sounds.

However, the two groups tied when researchers tested visual working memory skills. “It isn’t as though musical training has a volume knob effect that makes all kinds of sensory processing enhanced in the same manner,” Kraus says. “It focuses on auditory skill.”

The latest findings follow earlier research from Kraus that showed musician in a younger age group had better hearing skills. At the same time, some research has shown that musicians who play in large ensembles (合奏) may face an occupational risk when it comes to their hearing.

Does this effect apply to the guy who plays in a community band one night a week? Kraus says no. To be included in the study, musicians were required to have engaged in musical activities-practicing, teaching or performing-at least three times a week.

“What we do with our time and how we engage our senses and our thinking seems to really shape the people we become in very basic ways — in ways that affect how our series work,” she says.

And, Kraus says, a person doesn’t need to be an Itzhak Perlman or a Yo-Yo Ma to experience the effects. Talent, she says, isn’t a factor.

Kraus says that more research needs to be done to see whether receiving music instruction later in life might have the same benefits.

【1】Your hearing will be improved by ________.

A．what kind of instrument you play

B．what sort of music you play

C．whether you involve yourself with playing the instrument

D．how long you have learned music playing

【2】A musician is not better than others in ________.

A．getting better auditory memory scored

B．hearing speech in noisy environments

C．interpreting speech sounds

D．processing visual work memory

【3】The under lined phrase “an occupational risk” may refer to ________.

A．the danger of hearing loss

B．the possibility of losing a job

C．the trouble of playing music

D．the harm of hearing skills

【4】It can be inferred Perlman and Yo-Yo Ma are the names of ________.

A．instruments

B．musicians

C．songs

D．music

【5】The main idea of the text is about ________.

A．enjoying music will do good to your health

B．learning music may promote your hearing skills

C．playing an instrument may help preserve hearing

D．listening to music can prevent you from aging

24、Japanese archaeologists (考古学家) have uncovered al 7.5-foot-long irons sword and a bronze mirror from an ancient tomb near the city of Nara. Researchers found both artifacts while unearthing a l,600-year-old site called Tomio Maruyama.

The weapon, known as a dako sword, is so large that it was likely never used for self-defense, serving instead as a means of protection against evil after death. Like other dako swords unearthed in the country, this one looks like a snake. Due to the artifact’s size, the researchers initially thought they had found multiple swords lined up next to each other.

Experts said the mirror, which is shaped like a shield (盾), was also likely used to shun evil spirits. It measures 25 inches by 12 inches and weighs more than 12 pounds, making it the largest of its kind discovered in Japan, too.

The finds offer new insights into the Kofun period, which lasted from around the year 250 AD to 538 AD and is named for the distinctive tomb mounds, constructed to bury members of the ruling class. Kosaku Okabayashi, the deputy director for Nara prefecture’s Archaeological Institute of Kashihara, said, “These discoveries indicate that the technology of the Kofun period is beyond what had been imagined, and they are masterpieces in metalwork from that period.”

Japan is home to an estimated 160,000 burial mounds from the Kofun period, though the Tomio Maruyama kofun is particularly large. Measuring 350 feet in diameter and up to 32 feet tall, it dates back to the late fourth century.

Archaeologists think it has some connection to an influential person who supported the rulers of the day, the imperial Yamato family. Based on the presence of the two artifacts, the dead person may have been involved in military and ritualistic matters. So far, the researchers have discovered a coffin but no human remains in the burial chamber.

【1】How did researchers find an irons sword and a bronze mirror?

A．By exploring an old tomb.

B．By asking experienced local villagers.

C．By searching for much information online.

D．By carefully studying historical materials.

【2】What do we know about the iron sword?

A．It is in a very small size.

B．It looks like a sharp shield.

C．It was mainly used for self-defense.

D．It might be used to drive the evil away.

【3】What does the underlined word “shun” in paragraph 3mean?

A．Schedule.

B．Design.

C．Avoid.

D．Express.

【4】What is Kosaku Okabayashi’s attitude towards the two discoveries in paragraph 4?

A．Negative.

B．Appreciative.

C．Unclear.

D．Indifferent.
