25、 program-Mobile Market, felt a sense of accomplishment.He had once witnessed a wasteful and unfortunate reality. At that time,countless pounds of food had to be thrown away by farmers due to the interruption in the supply chain. Meanwhile, millions of people were struggling to afford enough food to
26、feed their families. Kornegay didnt want to stand by.With much working experience in food industry and background about how food system was designed. Kornegay decided to use his company* s vast network of farmer and food industry relationships to address the issue. His team used buses to bridge the
27、farmers, the food industries and communities that needed food most. Thousands of pounds of food that was sourced from local partners was placed into homes.Kornegay still remembered how the first Mobile Market came into being. His team made a detailed plan and chose the colors and images they preferr
28、ed. Then they purchased a retired0 school bus and renovated it, giving it a new different look and equipping it with refrigerators and freezers. Thus was bom the first Mobile Market.To date, the project has partnered with dozens of local farmers and food producers and has already served an estimated

33、 way to explore the ocean.As a shelter for many sea creatures, sea grasses are flowering plants that normally grow in shallow waters near coasts.They grow in thick fields , known as seagrass meadows （海草床）, which help clean the ocean water.More importantly,they are called nocean lung.They help in the
34、 fight against the climate crisis. Thats because they store huge amounts of carbon-the major source of global warming. Damaging these seagrass meadows can release this pollutant again, making things worse.Considering the urgent need to protect seagrass meadows. Scientists are eager to know about the
35、ir size and number. However. The meadows can be hard to spot from above. either because the water is too deep or not clear enough. And the ocean is so huge that its hard to study them by diving. So scientists decided to have tiger sharks help the research.Tiger sharks are inborn fast swimmers. And s
36、pend a lot of time in seagrass meadows. Between 2016 and 2020,the researchers attached cameras and other trackers to the fins of seven tiger sharks,and then let them go again. The cameras were designed to fall off after hours and float to the surface.Tracking signals helped find the floating cameras
37、 and collect the videos the sharks had taken while traveling for miles.Moreover,other tools were used,including satellite images,as well as images taken by divers and boats.Putting all this information together,the scientists learned that the waters around the Bahamas are home to the largest seagras
38、s meadow ever discovered.And the meadows cover at least 25,500 square miles, and could be as large as 35,500 square miles.Different from previous studies,the program discovers how useful large underwater animals can be in helping to learn more about life under the sea. Oliver Shipley, a scientist fr
39、om the team, says animals like tiger sharks are going to take us to new places that we didnt know existed.28 .Why do seagrass meadows urgently need protection?A.Damaging them will worsen climate crisis.B.They determine the cleanliness of ocean water.C.Sea creatures cant survive without their shelter
40、.D.Their existence balances the underwater ecosystem.29 .How did tiger sharks help the scientific research?A.By tracking signals scientists sent. fB.By bringing back cameras with videos.C.By carrying the recording equipment around.D.By spending a lot of time in seagrass meadows.30 .What is the highl

42、 Lung Measured by Natural ExplorersDThe Roman Colosseum （罗马圆形大剧场），built around two thousand years ago z survived a 14th century earthquake and most of the 150-some foot high building is still standing. It has seen the rise and fall of enormous structures as well as the Roman Empire. Why could the an
43、cient structure stand the test of time while many modern constructions fall apart after a few decades? Scientists believe the ancient Romans used a specific concrete which may account for its super-long existence.Previous discoveries have confirmed the components of the Roman concrete: volcanic mate
44、rial , limestone （石灰石）and water. Architects suppose the volcanic material is what makes the building strong-which it does. But this is not enough to explain the architectures durability. A team of researchers recently discovered a magical power of the Roman concrete: self-healing. And the key actual
45、ly lies in the tiny pieces of limestone. Worth mentioning is that researchers had taken them as impurities （杂质）due to the limitation of ancient technology.But it turned out that ancient Romans seemed to have discovered the secret.When the Romans made the mixture, they heated up the limestone to turn
46、 it into quicklime,a very reactive chemical. Quicklime reacted with water and produced heat that set up a chemical foundation to strengthen the building material.Meanwhile,it would wear a hard shell”, forming limestone pieces.lt was these pieces that stopped the cracks （裂缝）from becoming bigger.When
47、there was rain,the pieces reacted with water again,quickly filling the cracks.For material scientist Ainissa Ramirez, this new understanding of ancient Roman concrete is a welcome discovery.nThis is one way that the material can be greener,says Ramirez“The Romans made the material.We had to kind of
48、figure out how they did it so that we can make better materials-and then, you know, in turn, be better guards of our environment.n32 .Why could Roman Colosseum still exist according to the text?A.It was rebuilt constantly.Bit met few natural disasters.C.It contained a special material.D.Its shape increased the stability.33 .What is the function of the limestone pieces?A.To purify the concrete.B.To react with volcanic ma
