1.C　段落大意题。根据第一段中“As a self-taught hummingbird caretaker, she devotes most of her free time and resources to nursing the tiny birds back to health.”和第二段中“She managed to nurse Gucci back to health, but she said it was Gucci that saved her. Why Because the hummingbird managed to pull her out of the sadness and loneliness that had taken over her life.”可知,Catia Lattouf de Arida救了蜂鸟,同时蜂鸟也把她从悲伤和孤独中拯救出来,由此可知,帮助别人就是在帮助我们自己,故选C。

3.C　细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In order to raise awareness of the difficult situation of hummingbirds in Mexico, Catia Lattouf de Arida started posting videos of the patients in her Mexico City apartment on social media, and many of them became popular.

Hummingbirds (蜂鸟) are a very important part of Mexico’s ecosystem, but because of the ever-spreading city landscape, they face all sorts of serious dangers. That’s where 73-year-old Catia Lattouf de Arida comes in. As a self-taught hummingbird caretaker, she devotes most of her free time and resources to nursing the tiny birds back to health. Her home in Mexico City has become known as a hummingbird hospital.
Catia’s story as a hummingbird nurse began in 2011, at a very difficult moment in her life. At that time, she focused on her battle with cancer and fell into a depression (抑郁). She was walking on the street one day when she noticed a hummingbird that had suffered a serious eye injury. The kind-hearted woman took it home and named it Gucci. She managed to nurse Gucci back to health, but she said it was Gucci that saved her. Why Because the hummingbird managed to pull her out of the sadness and loneliness that had taken over her life.

She began to study the bird and their habits in order to better take care of them, and after 11 years of experience, the 73-year-old woman is considered an expert on hummingbirds.
In order to raise awareness of the difficult situation of hummingbirds in Mexico, Catia Lattouf de Arida started posting videos of the patients in her Mexico City apartment on social media, and many of them became popular. That’s when the need for her nursing services really blew up. She has cared for hundreds of hummingbirds in her 11-year career, when she has had as many as 50 of them in her apartment at any one time. She spends pretty much all her time looking after the tiny birds.

Harvard researchers have created a tough, low-cost and biodegradable (可生物降解的) material inspired by insects’ hard outer shells. The material’s inventors say it has a number of possible uses and someday could provide a more environmentally friendly alternative to plastic. The material, made from shrimp (虾) shells and proteins produced from silk, is called “shrilk”. It is thin, clear, flexible and strong.
A major benefit of the material is its biodegradability. Plastic’s toughness and flexibility represented a revolution in materials science during the 1950s and 1960s. Decades later, however, plastic’s very durability (耐用性) is raising questions about how appropriate it is for one-time products such as plastic bags, or short-lived consumer goods, used in the home for a few years and then thrown into a landfill where they will stay for centuries. What is the point of making something that lasts 1,000 years
Shrilk not only will degrade in a landfill, but its basic components are used as fertilizer (肥料), and so will enrich the soil.
Shrilk has great potential, the inventors said. Materials from which it is made are plentiful in nature, found in everything ranging from shrimp shells, insect bodies to living plants. That makes shrilk low cost, and its mass production possible if it is used for products demanding a lot of materials.
Work on shrilk is continuing in the lab. The inventors said the material becomes flexible when wet, so they’re exploring ways to use it in wet environments. They’re also developing simpler production processes, which could be used for non-medical products, like for computer cases and other products inside the home. They’re even exploring combining it with other materials, like carbon fibres, to give it new properties.
(　)5.What’s Paragraph 1 mainly about
A.Shrilk’s remarkable design.
B.Shrilk’s major features.
C.Shrilk’s interesting name.
D.Shrilk’s smart inventors.
(　)6.What has become a concern about plastic
A.Using it properly.
B.Producing it cheaply.
C.Developing its properties quickly.
D.Evaluating its contributions fairly.
(　)7.Why does shrilk have great potential according to the inventors
A.Because it can help plastic last longer.
B.Because it can be found in living things.
C.Because its mass production has been realized.
D.Because its raw materials are abundant in nature.
(　)8.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage
A.Recent progress in environmental protection
B.Benefits of insects in scientific research
C.A possible alternative to plastic
D.The harm of one-time products

A[2024·江苏省苏州市高一期末]
Hummingbirds (蜂鸟) are a very important part of Mexico's
ecosystem, but because of the ever-spreading city landscape, they
face all sorts of serious dangers. That's where 73-year-old Catia
Lattouf de Arida comes in. As a self-taught hummingbird caretaker,
she devotes most of her free time and resources to nursing the
tiny birds back to health. Her home in Mexico City has become
known as a hummingbird hospital.

Catia's story as a hummingbird nurse began in 2011, at a very
difficult moment in her life. At that time, she focused on her battle
with cancer and fell into a depression (抑郁). She was walking on
the street one day when she noticed a hummingbird that had
suffered a serious eye injury. The kind-hearted woman took it
home and named it Gucci. She managed to nurse Gucci back to
health, but she said it was Gucci that saved her. Why Because the
hummingbird managed to pull her out of the sadness and
loneliness that had taken over her life.

Word of her success spread among Catia's friends, and before
long some of them began bringing her injured hummingbirds. She
didn't repulse them at all. She began to study the bird and their
habits in order to better take care of them, and after 11 years of
experience, the 73-year-old woman is considered an expert on
hummingbirds.
In order to raise awareness of the difficult situation of
hummingbirds in Mexico, Catia Lattouf de Arida started posting
videos of the patients in her Mexico City apartment on social
media, and many of them became popular.

That's when the need for her nursing services really blew up. She
has cared for hundreds of hummingbirds in her 11-year career,
when she has had as many as 50 of them in her apartment at any
one time. She spends pretty much all her time looking after the
tiny birds.

B[2024·辽宁省锦州市高一期末]
Harvard researchers have created a tough, low-cost and
biodegradable (可生物降解的) material inspired by insects' hard
outer shells. The material's inventors say it has a number of
possible uses and someday could provide a more environmentally
friendly alternative to plastic. The material, made from shrimp (虾)
shells and proteins produced from silk, is called “shrilk”. It is thin,
clear, flexible and strong.

A major benefit of the material is its biodegradability. Plastic's
toughness and flexibility represented a revolution in materials
science during the 1950s and 1960s. Decades later, however,
plastic's very durability (耐用性) is raising questions about how
appropriate it is for one-time products such as plastic bags, or
short-lived consumer goods, used in the home for a few years and
then thrown into a landfill where they will stay for centuries. What
is the point of making something that lasts 1,000 years

Shrilk not only will degrade in a landfill, but its basic
components are used as fertilizer (肥料), and so will enrich the soil.
Shrilk has great potential, the inventors said. Materials from
which it is made are plentiful in nature, found in everything
ranging from shrimp shells, insect bodies to living plants. That
makes shrilk low cost, and its mass production possible if it is
used for products demanding a lot of materials.
Work on shrilk is continuing in the lab. The inventors said the
material becomes flexible when wet, so they're exploring ways to

use it in wet environments. They're also developing simpler
production processes, which could be used for non-medical
products, like for computer cases and other products inside the
home. They're even exploring combining it with other materials,
like carbon fibres, to give it new properties.
