19、s as dreadful, destructive creatures, would you? Rabbits are cute and love-able. However, Australians discovered (21) _ harm these cute creatures can do the hard way.Rabbits were introduced to Australia in 1788 as food animals. By 1827, they were running around large estates, and in 1859, disaster s

But Australia has no predators(捕食者)(23) _ (adapt) to killing rabbits and none of the diseases that kept their populations (24) _ control in Europe. The loose rabbits bred like, well,
21、 rabbits, and began to take over the countryside. Within a few decades, there were millions. By 1950, there were 600 million rabbits in Australia.Six hundred million hungry rabbits could do real harm. They caused more damage than any other species introduced to the continent. They ate native plant s
22、pecies (25) _ they disappeared. They competed for food and shelter with native animals. they caused the extinction or endangerment of numerous plant and animal species. And they were a nightmare for cattle and sheep farmers, (26)_ animals couldnt get enough grass to eat and starved.The rabbits did s
23、ome good, of course. They provided food for poor families. They supported fur industries. But their impact on the environment and major livestock economy was too negative (27)_(ignore). People tried trapping them. They even built a huge wall against them. But (28)_(effective) weapon was a virus.(29)
24、 _(test) multiple times, the deadly myxoma virus was released on Australias rabbits in 1950. The virus had been developed very carefully to affect only rabbits.

Some even use metal detectors to find
27、 buried treasure or other objects. Only the lucky few have _31_ a message in a bottle that was dropped off by the tide. The tradition of putting a letter to an unknown recipient into a bottle and throwing it into the ocean has an interesting past. An early _32_ use for the practice was revealed when
28、 the oldest recorded message in a bottle was found by Tonya on a beach near Wedge Island, Australia.Tonya was on a family outing when she noticed the antique glass bottle in the sand and thought it would make a nice _33_. While she was cleaning the sandy gin bottle, a rolled up paper tied with a _34
29、_ fell out. The damp page was a message written in German and dated June 12, 1886. According to official documents from the German sailing vessels, Paula, a crew member tossed the bottle overboard a(n) _35_ 950 km off the coast of Western Australia. Further research authenticated(验证)the letter, whic
30、h had been sent afloat 132 years ago and is the oldest message in a bottle ever _36_.Historians confirm that thousands of similar bottles were cast overboard by German ships between 1864 and 1933. And _37_ inside were official documents written by the captain of the ship, _38_ routes, coordinates, a
31、nd other information. These early messages in a bottle were an attempt by the German Naval Observatory to map ocean _39_ around the world.On the back of the notes were _40_ to write the time and place the bottles were found and return them to the German Naval Observatory in Hamburg or the nearest Ge
32、rman authorities. Using this information for reference was an early system of studying patterns in nature and the vast ocean in particular.III.

33、th the word or phrase that best fits the context.A star athlete stopped by my office and she was eaten up by self-criticism after committing a few errors during a weekend match. “Im at peak _41_ and I practice hard. How is this happening?” This student, like many I teach, believes she should be able
34、 to _42_ the outcomes of her life by virtue of her hard work.I study and write about resilience (复原力), and Im noticing a(n)_43_ increase in students like this athlete. When they win, they feel powerful and smart. When they fall short of what they imagine they should _44_, however, they are crushed b

But there is something else at play among the most advantaged in particular: a _46_ promise that they can achieve anything if they are willing to work for it.Psychologists have
36、sourced this phenomenon to a misapplication of “mind-set” research, which has found that praising children for _47_ will increase academic performance. Developed by Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck, mind-set education has spread across classrooms worldwide. But a 2018 analysis found that while prai
37、sing hard work over ability may benefit economically disadvantaged students, it does not _48_ help everyone.One possible explanation comes from Nina Kumar, who argued in a research paper last year that for teens in wealthy, pressure-cooker communities, “It is not a _49_ of motivation and perseveranc
38、e that is the big problem. _50_, it is unhealthy perfectionism and difficulty with backing off when they should, when the fierce drive for achievements is over the top.” This can _51_ physical and emotional stress. In a 2007 study, psychologists Gregory Miller determined that adolescent girls who re
39、fused to give up the _52_ goals showed elevated levels of CRP, a protein that serves as a marker of systemic inflammation (炎症) linked to diabetes, heart disease and other medical conditions.The cruel reality is that you can do everything in your power and still fail. This knowledge comes early to un
40、derrepresented minorities whose experience of discrimination (歧视) and inequality teaches them to _53_ what is, for now, largely beyond their control to change. Yet for others, the belief that success is always within their grasp is a setup. Instead of allowing our kids to beat themselves up when thi
41、ngs dont go their way,we should all question a culture that has taught them that how they perform for others is more important than what _54_ inspires them and that where they go to college matters more than the kind of person they are. We should be wise to remind our kids that life has a way of dis
42、appointing us when we least _55_ it. Its often the people who learn to say “stuff happens” who get up the fastest.41. A. coolness B. fitness C. goodness D. readiness42.

46、tor has been accused of cheating desperate farmers by charging up to $50,000 Australian dollars for delivering rain on demand without so much as explaining the technology behind his business.On the official Miles Research website,Miles explains that in the 1990s he realized that it was possible to i
47、nfluence weather patterns by creating a bridge between the present and a near-future event in the physical space-time continuum. He found that by applying small amounts of energy intelligently, even a large, messy weather system approaching from the future could be eased.While somewhat fascinating, Miles explanation does little to explain how he is able to bring rainfall to the lands of farm
