10、the Caribbean Spotts Beach, Grand Cayman Surrounded by cliffs, this picturesque beach on?Grand Cayman?is excellent for seeing sea turtles, and its location the south coast of the island makes it perfect for watching the sunrise and set. Best of all, theres limited parking and only a few homes nearby
11、, so you wont be climbing over sunbathers, nor will you be competing for space at the picnic tables or grills. Little Bay, Anguilla When you have to climb down a rope along a cliff to get there, you know its a secret beach. But thats precisely the adventure it takes to enjoy the quiet nature of Litt
12、le Bay. While accessing it may be a bit of an upsetting experience, once you get to the white sandy beaches with no crowds, youll be glad you did. We guess we should mention you can take a hired boat here, too. La Sagesse Beach, Grenada Clear water and soft sand are two of the many reasons people se
13、ek out this peaceful, palm tree-dotted slice of the Grenada coastline, which has but a single hotel. You can rent beach chairs and boat, and be sure to explore the tropical gardens of the La Sagesse Nature Center, located less than a mile down the road. Book a private villa right near the beach or c
14、hoose a nearby hotel like?473 Grenada Boutique Resort. Gold?Rock?Beach,?Grand?Bahama Referred to as a “welcome mat” during low tide because you can sit on the sand bar, Gold Rock Beach is part of the Lucayan National Park, which you have to walk through to get to the sandy shores.

B Growing up in a poor African American neighborhood, Carl Allamby and his five brothers and sisters were raised by their stay-at-home mother and a father who sold home goods door-to-door. He fa
18、ced low expectations and numerous barriers to pursuing his dream. His school didnt offer the advanced science classes that might have led him on a premed (医学预科班) path, so he set aside thoughts of becoming a doctor. He had started it at the age of 19, working alone out of a rented bay in a friends ga
19、rage. Over the years, it had grown into two shops with 11 employees, but Allamby had become anxious, longing for something more. So at the age of 34, he decided to go for his bachelors degree in business management. After taking classes part-time over the next five years, Allamby was told he had to
20、take biology to get his degree. Biology class awakened a childhood dream within himself. With the support of his wife and family, he soon decided to skip business school in favor of the science classes hed need for a second career as a health-care worker. Becoming a doctor when he would be approachi
21、ng the age of 50 was clearly crazy. He would instead become a nurse or a physician assistant like his wife, he thought. But Allambys chemistry professor encouraged him to pursue his dream to be a doctor. And so in 2022, Allamby started at Northeast Ohio Medical University. In 2022, at the age of 47,
22、 Carl Allamby became Carl Allamby, MD. Now Allamby is a second-year resident. “How many people can do something so brand-new and have so much stimulation and responsibility at such a late stage in their life?” he says, “I am told that I shouldnt be a doctor. Whether its because of my age, my race, m
23、y upbringing, or my past career, these are all good reasons why I shouldnt be here. And yet, here I am.” 24What made Carl fail to become a doctor when he was young? ANo social barriers. BParents being jobless. CHigh expectations from his parents. DNo advanced science classes in his school. 25What aw
24、akened Carls childhood dream? AChemistry class. BBusiness class. CBiology class. DHis professors encouragement. 26Why did Carl skip business school? ATo attend science classes. BTo manage his shops. CTo take part-time classes.DTo support his family. 27Which of the following can best describe Carl? A
25、Caring.BDetermined CHonest. DGood-tempered. C For centuries, fishers in Narrangansett have fished in the waters of the northwestern Atlantic for herrings (鲱鱼). But as climate change warms the worlds seas, the herrings are disappearing at the southern end of their range and turning up more often at i
26、ts northern edges. A study shows that concentrations of marine (海洋的) species populations have been shifting away from the equator (赤道) and toward the poles during the course of the past century. These movements could wreak havoc on food webs and endanger the livelihoods (生计) of fishers. The tropical
27、 (热带的) water at the equator is well-known for having the richest diversity of marine life on Earth. The number of marine species naturally decreases gradually as you head towards the poles. Ecologists have assumed this global pattern has remained stable over recent centuries until now. Our recent st
28、udy found the ocean around the equator has already become too hot for many species to survive, and that global warming is responsible. And as species flee to cooler water towards the poles, its likely to have deep impacts on marine ecosystems. Losing species in tropical ecosystems means ecological a
29、daptation to environmental changes is reduced, potentially damage ecosystem persistence. In subtropical ecosystems, species richness is increasing. This means therell be species invaders, and new competitive relationships. This could result in ecosystem collapse in which species go extinct and ecosy
30、stem services (such as food supplies) are permanently changed. One way is to reduce our emissions aggressively. Other opportunities could also help safeguard biodiversity and hopefully minimize the worst impacts of it shifting away from the equator. Designing climate-smart reserves could further pro
31、tect biodiversity from future changes. For example, reserves for marine life could be placed where the climate will be stable over the foreseeable future. We should take action without delay. 28What does the underlined phrase “wreak havoc on” probably mean in Paragraph 1? AClarifyBClassify. CDestroy
32、.DPurify. 29What can be learnt from the second paragraph? ASome species move to water in lower temperature. BMore marine species exist at the poles than the equator. CThe subtropical water has the most diverse marine species. DThe global pattern of the ecosystem remains unchanged now. 30What is the
33、main idea of the third paragraph? AThe increase of species in subtropical ecosystem. BThe decline of ecological changes in the ocean. CThe temporary changes in ecosystem services. DThe effects of species immigration on marine ecosystem. 31What is the authors purpose in writing this article? ATo info
34、rm readers of the reduction of marine species. BTo appeal to readers to protect marine biodiversity. CTo predict the future of the marine ecosystem. DTo explain the reasons for global warming. D Artificial intelligence (AI) might be able to spot the next virus to jump from animals to humans, Scottis
35、h researchers report. Identifying diseases before they become a threat to humans is challenging, because only a few of the nearly 2 million animal viruses can infect humans. By developing machine learning models, researchers can analyze genetic patterns of viruses that might infect people. “Our find
36、ings show that the zoonotic (动物传染人的) potential of viruses can be inferred to a surprisingly large extent from their genome sequence (基因组序列).” the researchers at the University of Glasgow reported. “By highlighting viruses with the greatest potential to become zoonotic, genome-based ranking allows fu
37、rther ecological and virological characterization to be targeted more effectively.” The researchers said the models are only a first step in identifying animal viruses with the potential to infect humans, however. Viruses flagged by the models will need laboratory test confirmation before researcher
38、s pursue funding for further study. Although these models may predict if viruses might infect humans, thats only one part of the broader risk. Zoonotic risk is also influenced by how destructive a virus is in humans, as well as its ability to transmit between people, and ecological conditions at the
39、 time of human exposure. The findings were published online in the journal PLoS Biology. Co-author Simon Babayan said?these findings?add important information to that collected from genetic sequencing of viruses using AI techniques. “The more viruses are characterized, the more effective our machine
40、 learning models will become at identifying the rare viruses that ought to be closely monitored and prioritized for vaccine development.” Babayan added. 32What is the significance of genome-based ranking? ATo identify viruses which have threatened humans. BTo discover human viruses that can infect a
41、nimals. CTo highlight viruses with the slightest chances to become zoonotic. DTo target ecological and virological characterization more effectively. 33What can be inferred from the third paragraph? AThe fund for further study has been put in place. BThere is still a long way to go for AI models to
42、function ideally. CViruses flagged by the models have been confirmed by researchers. DViruses transmission ability is the most influential factor for zoonotic risk. 34What is Simon Bybayans attitude towards the findings? APositive.BAmbiguous. CIndifferent. DDoubtful. 35What is the best title for thi
43、s text? AAI Models Spot Various Viruses in Nature. BAI Models Monitor Vaccine Development. CAI Models Predict Potential Zoonotic Viruses. DAI Models Cure Potential Zoonotic Diseases. 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Five years ago, my husband and I bought a former
44、 farm. Its a short ride from our Vancouver home but a world away. As we restore the land, I feel my well-being returning, but I think the farm is also working its magic on our sons growing resilience (适应能力). Since Dev was 20, he has lived with mental illness. We have been on this journey with him fr
45、om crisis to recovery. 36We found the farm. It has taken a couple of years to clear the land, seed the lawn (草坪) and build garden beds. But we did it even as other parts of our life had come undone. The farm was holding our family together. We come over on weekends and holidays and have been planting.37 Before he went to treatment, we planted a “guild” in the old apple farm.38We dug around the weaker trees and placed in garlic, wildflowers and
