Everything changed on June 23, 2012 when Kirstie Ennis was in a helicopter crash that finally
led to an above-the-knee leg amputation(截肢). Recovering from the crash nearly destroyed her, but
she refused to let her injuries hold her back.
To prove to herself just how unlimited her possibilities are, Ennis set a goal: become the first
veteran (老兵)amputee to complete the Seven Summits-the highest mountain on each of the seven
continents.
But Ennis' climbing journey isn't just about the mountains. On each climb, she raises money in
support of a different nonprofit.
"I realized that it was a pretty unique platform … whether it's the younger generation, men,
women or wounded veterans, they can look to me in a different way,” Ennis told Connecting Vets.
“It's just the highlight of everything I always wanted to do.”
Ennis has climbed up five of the seven mountains. She's been on Everest for more than a
month, adapting to the altitude and planning routes, and her team plans to summit(登顶)on May 15,
2019. It's a climb she has been preparing for three years, including a trip in 2017.
"Everest is the most important part of everything I have trained for," Ennis told Pensacola News
Journal. "Every mountain teaches me something different. Now I have to use all of those skill sets to
be able to deal with Everest. Should I summit, history will be made as the first woman above knee
amputee to do so. Each individual, especially those with disabilities, should be able to determine
what they're able to do.”Ennis shares detailed updates on her blog, and will post again after the summit attempt.
24. Why did Ennis decide to conquer the Seven Summits?
A. To inspire others. B. To challenge herself.
C. To show her strong will. D. To make her life colorful.
25. What does Ennis do on her climb?
A. She promotes environmental protection. B. She collects money for a nonprofit.
C. She recovers from her injury. D. She communicates with fellows.
26. When did Ennis start to prepare for Everest?
A. In 2016. B. In 2017. C. In 2018. D. In 2019.
27. What can we infer from paragraph 6?
A. Ennis values the experience on every mountain.
B. Ennis is confident that she will summit Everest.
C. Ennis has been well trained due to some experts.
D. Ennis is proud of her upcoming achievement.

With self-driving vehicle technology rapidly advancing, many companies are turning to
autonomous robots for the final leg of the delivery process, from the store or local distribution center
to the customer. The latest to join the trend is e-commerce giant. Amazon. Following a successful
eight-month test run in Snohomish County, Washington, the company's Scout robots have been
making the rounds of Irvine, California, since August 6, 2019.
The six-wheeled Scout is about the size of a large cooler with the capacity to carry small or
medium-sized packages. The battery-powered vehicle, which moves at a regular walking pace, has
been programmed to avoid pedestrians, animals, and unexpected obstacles, such as garbage cans. Its
powerful sensors can also detect the movement of a car backing out of a driveway.
To accelerate Scout's development and bring it nationwide sooner, the company has created
several detailed virtual maps of American suburbs and conducted trial deliveries to homes there.
Though Amazon has not shown how Scout ensures the delivery is picked up by the right
person, it most likely requires the customer to apply a unique code, texted to them prior to the
delivery, to unlock the store box. Also unclear is the number of deliveries Scout can complete before
its battery needs to be recharged. Though the initial tests are being conducted with a human for company, the robot will be autonomous in the future. Its location ,however, will be tracked at all
times-if someone attempts to steal Scout, Amazon employees will be instantly sensed.
However, the eco-friendly robots are unable to climb stairs or open gates, which means that
they can only reach consumers who live on the ground level. Additionally, the robots are unable to
leave packages at the front door if the customers are not home. Whether these problems get resolved
remains to be seen. For now, it appears that humans will still be needed to achieve the ever-growing
demand for home and office deliveries.
28. What are many companies developing autonomous robots for?
A. Final tests. B. The so-called last mile. C. Robots' safety. D. Delivery speed.
29. What can we infer about Scout from paragraph 2?
A. It looks like a cooler. B. It adjusts its speed accordingly.
C. Its sensors play a key role. D. It will be widely used soon.
30. What does the underlined phrase "prior to" in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Before. B. After. C. In front of. D. Due to.
31. From which is the text probably taken?
A. A biology textbook. B. A health magazine. C. A newspaper. D. A travel brochure.
D
Scientists say they have found high levels of small plastic particles(颗粒)in Arctic snow. Their
findings provide more evidence that plastic is entering Earth's atmosphere and traveling great
distances around the planet.
A German-Swiss research team collected snow samples from the Arctic and other areas. They
included northern Germany, the Bavarian and Swiss Alps, and the North Sea island of Heligoland.
When the researchers examined the samples in a lab, they were surprised to find very high levels of
microplastics.
Microplastics are very small pieces of plastic. These plastic particles are generally smaller than
5 millimeters in length. Other studies have found microplastics in the environment. They come from
the disposal and breakdown of man-made plastic products and industrial waste.
The study found the highest levels of microplastics came from the Bavarian Alps. One snow
sample(标本)from the area had 154,000 microplastic particles per liter. Samples collected from the
Arctic had much lower levels. However, even samples from the Arctic contained up to 14,000 particles per liter.
Earlier studies found signs of plastic in Arctic areas. Those microplastics were found in coastal
areas, sea ice, the seafloor and the seawater's surface. The new study attempted to explore how some
of the material could have been carried in the atmosphere. A limited number of earlier studies did
find microplastics in the air of some cities. including Paris, Tehran and Dongguan, China.
The research team discovered many kinds of microplastics. Some were from paints commonly
used to coat the surface of automobiles and ships. A rubber-like substance was also found that could
have come from vehicle or boat parts or packaging materials.
While there is growing concern about the effect of microplastics on the environment, scientists
are still studying their possible harmful effects on humans and animals.
32. How did scientists feel when knowing the levels of microplastics in Arctic?
A. Doubtful. B. Concerned. C. Excited. D. Astonished.
33. Which is right concerning microplastics?
A. Scientists are examining the exact level of microplastics.
B. Scientists are reducing the concerns of microplastics.
C. Microplastics have been discovered in Arctic for the first time.
D. Scientists have researched about the spread of microplastics.
34. What are scientists eager to uncover?
A. The degree of influence on Dongguan.
B. The influence of microplastic on humans.
C. The content of microplastic in the seafloor.
D. The measures to rid microplastic effectively.
35. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Microplastics around the World B. Microplastics, a New Pollution
C. High Levels of Microplastics in Arctic D. Great Concern about Microplastics in Arctic

Beach Camping
Heading to the beach this summer? Ready for a coastal vacation? 36 . Where else can one person relax with a book while another goes fishing, another looks for sand dollars, and yet another
wades(涉水)in the surf? Between the sunshine and water, beaches truly have something for everyone.
If you'll be headed to a rocky beach or a lake that may have underwater hidden sticks and logs,
wading shoes are a great idea. These closed-toed shoes-old tennis shoes or canvas shoes work well
-will protect your feet in the water. Wading shoes need to be inexpensive. 37

after your shower.
For many people, beach camping is all about the toys you bring with you. Whether you're
windsurfers, sailors, or jet skiers, you'll want to come prepared. Check with the room of commerce
of the nearest town to learn about equipment rentals and their policies. 39 .Hats, sunscreen,
and sunglasses are a must on the water.
Once you arrive at your beach of choice, look for signs and postings warning you about local
events or dangers. 40 .Chances are that your beach is safe, but it's always best to keep your
eyes open.
A. Keep it in mind firmly
B. Carry enough money, especially cash
C. Be sure to bring plenty of beach towels
D. Be aware of red tides, and other dangers
