Enric Sala isn’t a medical doctor, but he is regularly writing prescriptions (处方). His patient The ocean. The prescription Marine protected areas (MPAs) — a designated safe zone for ocean life where fishing, mining and other destructive human activities are banned. As news of coral bleaching, overfishing and ocean warming events dominate the headlines, the former university professor quit academia to become a full-time conservationist, advocating finding a cure for an ocean that, at times, can appear on its deathbed.
Since 2008, Sala has built a team of scientists, filmmakers, policy professionals and communicators to form Pristine Seas — an initiative that explores marine ecosystems to help protect the world’s most vital ocean areas. On their expeditions, scientists and filmmakers are invited by governments to spend weeks at a time at sea, collecting films and data to submit to local government leaders so they can determine which parts of their ocean are most important to protect.
Sala, a man who is equally at ease slipping on a wetsuit for a dive as he is donning a suit and tie for fundraising events or meetings with country leaders, understands that to truly inspire people to enact marine protections, you have to bring people close enough to care. “When we take government leaders down hundreds of meters underwater, we can open a window to their world that they’ve never seen before,” Sala says. “You can see the amazement and pride on their faces. ”
Perhaps MPAs’ biggest opponents are industrial fishing lobbyists (说客) keen on keeping oceans open to large-scale fishing efforts. They argue that MPAs would hold back economic development and decrease fisheries’ productivity.
Sala and his colleague demonstrated that within MPAs, not only do target species bounce back, with an increase in fish biomass of more than 500%, but entire ecosystems are also restored. The populations then “spill over” into nearby unprotected fishing grounds. “Ocean protection and fishing have always had the same goal,” Sala says.
24. What is MPAs meant to do according to paragraph 1
A．Stop damaging ocean wildlife.
B．Boost coastal fishing business.
C．Explore unknown deep-sea areas.
D．Seek new habitats for marine life.
25. Why does Sala take government leaders to dive underwater
A．To test the possibility of MPAs.
B．To shoot underwater landscapes.
C．To train them to dive for an ocean project.
D．To touch their hearts and win their support.
26. What is Sala’s attitude to the fishing lobbyists’ idea
A．Supportive.
B．Tolerant.
C．Opposed.
D．Unconcerned.
27. What can be the best title for the text
A．An Opponent of Boosting Ocean Economy
B．An Ocean Doctor Without a Medical Degree
C．An Advocate of Exploring the Deep Ocean in a New Way
D．An Effort to Involve Governments in Oceanic Protection
C
Search online and you will find countless DIYbio trends that promise healthier aging, from using hyperbaric oxygen therapy to sleeping under red lights. But research from Tufts University points to a much simpler lifestyle change that appears to work: eating slightly fewer calories.
The findings come from CALERIE, short for Comprehensive Assessment of Long-term Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy. In the study, 143 participants tried to reduce their calorie intake by 25% for two years, while 75 others continued eating normally as the control group.
Researchers found notable improvements among the participants who reduced calories. Many shifted their diets away from fats and toward more protein and carbohydrates. Although the group achieved only about a 12% calorie reduction instead of the targeted 25%, they still experienced significant declines in blood pressure, LDL cholesterol, and insulin levels compared with the control group. A paper released earlier this year found that lowering calorie intake did not reduce the overall nutritional quality of participants’ diets.
“The most exciting part is that we saw these benefits with only a moderate level of restriction that’s feasible for most people. It doesn’t have to take extreme measures. For some people, just skipping a large daily sugary coffee drink can do the trick,” says Sai Krupa Das, one of the researchers.
Researchers are still unable to understand exactly why calorie restriction boosts health. One theory is that eating less helps the body generate energy more efficiently while producing fewer reactive oxygen species, unstable molecules (分子) that can damage cells and contribute to diseases ranging from cancer to Parkinson’s disease. One test confirmed that the participants in the calorie restriction group had lower levels of these molecules than the control group.
The CALERIE project is still ongoing. Researchers still do not know whether calorie restriction works best as a permanent lifestyle or as a shorter-term intervention. “I think the follow-up was necessary given such promising results in the primary study, and it is crucial to see how things play out over time,” Das says.
28. What is the effective way to slow aging according to the research from Tufts University
A．Receiving oxygen treatment.
B．Using red lights while sleeping.
C．Trying various DIYbio methods.
D．Cutting down food calories a little.
29. What do we know about the calorie-cutting participants
A．They took in much less protein.
B．They quitted before the deadline.
C．Their health indicators turned better generally.
D．Their diets were richer than the control group’s.
30. What does the underlined word “feasible” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Strange.
B．Practical.
C．Suspicious.
D．Predictable.
31. Why do researchers carry out further research
A．To explore long-term effects of calorie restriction.
B．To figure out new approaches to restricting calories.
C．To explain why calorie restriction improves health.
D．To detect how reactive oxygen species harm health.
D
To the untrained eye, there is very little difference between the three known versions of the artwork The Lute Player. Almost identical in composition, the paintings all portray a young subject, in white clothes and with an instrument in hand, turning slightly away from the viewer. Each appears to carry Italian painter Caravaggio’s distinctive mastery of light and shadow.
To art historians, however, there has long been broad agreement: The versions held by Russia’s Hermitage Museum and France’s Wildenstein Collection were created by Caravaggio, while the one at Britain’s Badminton House is merely a copy.
A Swiss tech company begged to differ, and it claimed there was an almost 86% chance that Badminton House’s version is authentic. The company’s AI model, which was trained to recognize markers of Caravaggio’s style, including shapes, color palettes and compositional structures, also declared (though with less statistical certainty) that Wildenstein’s version was likely a copy. Its analysis found “a significant difference” between the latter painting’s “visual characteristics” and those of Caravaggio’s other works.
The company’s declarations have not always contradicted the established scholarship. It claimed that a long-debated painting of Vincent van Gogh at the National Museum in Oslo had a 97% chance of being genuine. The Vincent van Gogh authorship was later matched by more conventional research, including technical analyses and studies of the artist’s letters.
The company’s authentication approach combines machine learning, deep neural networks and computer vision algorithms (算法). To date, the company has produced models for over 200 artists. In each, the AI is trained on two photographic datasets: a “positive” one, containing images of recognized paintings by the artist mentioned, and a “negative” one comprising similar but inauthentic works. The company emphasized that having a “high degree of similarity” between the two datasets to learn the difference is crucial.
“I have reservations about it. Authentication is rarely just about surface style,” said art historian Sharon Hecker. “You have to know about the workshop, practices, materials, the condition of the work, the restoration history, and how a particular artist’s work evolved over time. ”
32. What do we know about the three versions of The Lute Player
A．They are recognized as Caravaggio’s artworks.
B．They are refused by famous European museums.
C．They look almost the same to non-professionals.
D．They differ greatly in composition and light use.
33. Why is the Vincent van Gogh’s painting mentioned in paragraph 4
A．To prove AI research has its reliability.
B．To show the limits of traditional art study.
C．To compare different creating styles of art.
D．To stress the difficulty in painting creation.
34. What is Sharon Hecker’s attitude to the AI authentication method
A．Supportive.
B．Curious.
C．Indifferent.
D．Doubtful.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A．Conflicts of Caravaggio’s Artworks
B．AI Joins in the Artwork Identification
C．AI represents Traditional Art Appreciation
D．Approaches to Preserving Old Masterpieces

In a quiet hospital room, the air was heavy with the sharp smell of medicine. Crystal sat frozen in a chair, her eyes fixed on the clear plastic incubator (恒温箱). Inside lay her newborn son, Brantley, a tiny figure connected to a web of tubes and wires. Diagnosed with severe heart issues at birth, the baby was fighting for his life. For weeks, Crystal had barely left his side, with her heart torn. The medical bills were piling up like a dark storm cloud, and the weight of helplessness pressed down on the family. They were desperate, praying for a miracle.
Meanwhile, in the auction (拍卖) market of their town, the atmosphere was typically noisy and routine. That was until Tom Harris, a local farmer with a rough look but a kind heart, walked in carrying a potted orchid (兰花). Tom had spent years planting this rare orchid, tending to it with care day after day to help it bloom into a graceful plant. Having heard about the struggle of Crystal’s family, he knew he couldn’t solve the medical crisis, but he wanted to help.
Then he took his beloved orchid to the auction market in the town. Approaching the auctioneer, he made an unexpected request: He didn’t want to sell the orchid for himself. Instead, he wanted to donate the money he earned, with every penny going directly to Crystal’s family.
The auctioneer announced the cause, and a silence fell over the crowd before the bidding (竞价) began. The well-tended orchid was displayed for everyone to see, its beauty drawing great praise, and the auctioneer started the bidding. A local buyer made the winning bid at $70. But then, something magical happened.
The buyer shouted, “Put it up for auction again! I’ll donate the money, too!”
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
By the time the auction ended, the potted orchid had raised an astonishing sum of money.

The buyer shouted, “Put it up for auction again! I’ll donate the money, too!” His generous decision instantly warmed everyone present. Another buyer soon offered a higher price and followed suit to donate all the money. More and more people joined the warm activity. The beautiful orchid was auctioned repeatedly, and every winning bid was donated without hesitation. The whole market was filled with warmth and kindness instead of noisy trading. Everyone hoped their small efforts could help the poor family get through the difficulty.
By the time the auction ended, the potted orchid had raised an astonishing sum of money. The auctioneer immediately sent all the money to the hospital to cover Brantley’s medical fees. With enough funds, the baby received timely and effective treatment. Gradually, the little baby recovered and returned home healthy. Crystal and her husband were extremely grateful to Tom and all the kind people. The precious orchid, though auctioned many times, became a symbol of love and kindness in the small town, reminding people that kindness can always light up others’ darkest moments.
