In a world simultaneously on fire and underwater thanks to climate change, scientists have announced some good news: Several important tuna (金枪鱼) species have stepped back from the edge of extinction.
The unexpectedly fast recovery speaks to the success of efforts over the past decade to end overfishing. But tuna are not the only species scientists are discussing at the 2021 World Conservation Congress in Marseille, France, which is organized by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Researchers caution that many other marine species remainimperiled. For instance, more than a third of the world's sharks remain threatened with extinction due to overfishing, habitat loss, and climate change.
“I think the good news is that sustainable fisheries are possible,” says Beth Polidoro, a marine biologist at Arizona State University. “We can eat fish in a proper way and without driving the population to the point where it is on the road to collapse or extinction.\"At the same time, she warned that the changes in status should not be an reason to catch as many fish as we want.
The IUCN, which ranks the world's most endangered species on its Red List of Threatened Species and is backed by 16,000 experts across the globe, also announced at the meeting that some animals are moving in the other direction, onto the Red List. One notable example is the Komodo dragon, an island-living lizard at particular risk from climate change.
For the better part of two decades, Polidoro has been part of a specialist group tasked with assessing the statuses of more than 60 species of tuna and billfishes for the IUCN.Her team announced its first comprehensive findings in 2011, mentioning that a number of commercially fished tuna species were dangerously close to disappearing.According to the new data, the Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus), once listed as endangered, now qualifies for a status of least concern. As does the yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) and albacore tuna (Thunnus alalunga), which were both considered near-threatened the last time they were assessed. 8. What does the underlined word “imperiled” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Endangered B. Conserved
C. Extinct D. Safe
9. What can we infer from Polidoro's words? A. Too many fish are being eaten by human beings. B. Eating fish does not necessarily lead to its extinction. C. Fish species are on the edge of dying out if no action is taken. D. The situation of underwater species are changing for the better. 10. Which of following statement is true according to the passage? A. Some Tuna species are wiped out by overfishing. B. Tuna are ranked as the world's most endangered species.
C. Climate change poses a threat to most species in water and on land. D. Three tuna species have been saved from extinction according to the data. 11. What's the main idea of the passage?
A. Some tuna species are reported endangered recently. B. IUCN has helped saved a great many marine species. C. Improvement has been made in saving marine species. D. Great efforts should be made to conserve species underwater.
D
When I was a boy, there was but one permanent ambition among my comrades in our village on the west bank of Mississippi River. That was, to be a steamboat man. We had temporary ambitions of other sorts, but they were only temporary.
My father was a justice of the peace, and I supposed he possessed the power of life and death over all men and could hang anybody that offended him. This was distinction enough for me as a general thing；butthe desire to be a steamboat man kept intruding, nevertheless. One of our boys in town, who went away and was not heard of for-a long time, turned up as apprentice engineer on a steamboat. This thing shook the bottom out of all my Sunday—school teachings. That boy was notoriously worldly, and I was just the opposite. There was nothing generous about this fellow in his greatness. He would always manage to have a rusty nail to scrub while his boat stopped at our town, and he would sit on the inside guard and scrub it, where we could all see him. And wherever his boat was laid up he would come home and show off in the town in his blackest and greasiest clothes, so that nobody could help remembering that he was a steamboat man; and he used all sorts of steamboat technical terms in his talk, as if he were so used to them that he forgot common people could not understand them.
This creature's career could produce but one result, and it was speedily followed. Boy after boy managed to get on the river. Despite many choices, pilot was the grandest position of all. The pilot, even in those days of trivial wages, had a princely salary—from 150—250 dollars a month, and no board payment.But our parents would not let us and our worry was the next year would find us hunting for jobs with low pay again. So by and by I ran away. I said I never would come home again till I was a pilot and could come in glory. 12. Why does the writer mention his father's job in Paragraph 2?
A. To show that his father was in power. B. To show that his father is cruel. C. To emphasize the job he prefers. D. To emphasize his love for his father. 13. Which of the following can best conclude the writer's attitude toward the boy? A. He thought the boy was material but pitiful.
B. He thought the boy was annoying but still envied him. C. He thought the boy was shallow but knowledgeable. D. He thought the boy was disrespectful but still liked him. 14. Which of the following statements is Not True? A. The boy talked in a way to make others feel jealous. B. The boy's experience made other boys follow suit. C. The pilot's salary was ly high but without meals covered.
D. The writer was ambitious to make his childhood dream come true. 15. What rhetorical method does the underlined sentence have?
A. Simile. B. Personification. C. Parallelism. D. Irony. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

I said “Hi” to him, extending his hand and he came up to me and kissed me on the cheek, not once, and three times, going from one cheek with the other!
