Eating jellyfish could save endangered fish
According to the IUCN Red List 32,000 species are threatened with extinction — everything from birds and manunals. Despite national and inteniational efforts beuig gathered to protect tlireatened species, we actively fish for many of them. For tho of us who enjoy the odd fish and chips, tliis isn't great news, (21)the rearchers have come up with an unusual way we can help while still enjoying afood - and it involves eating jellyfish.
Between 2006 and 2014. 92 Aiiliierable or endangered species of afood were being caught, recorded, and sold. When they are sold, it is rare that fish and invertebrate (无脊椎的)species (22) (r
equire) to be labelled according to species, so consumers have no way of knowing (23) theyre eating.
The rearch team stress the fact (24) )this is only a brief view of the real problem. M A lot of die afood catch and import records are listed in groups like 4marine fish'. Here we didn't look at tho vague records, we only looked at records (25)the actual species was listed — so wete made a huge underestmiate of the actual catch of endangered species.H
There are some ways to untie the mess were creating iii the world's oceans, includmg (26)(expand) our idea of afood to include jellyfish. Tliat might soimd a little off die theme, but it*s not the first time scientists have suggested (27)as a food source. It makes a lot of n becau Jellyfish is considered a minor species of wild animals and scientists might thnik its number is mcreasiiig worldwide.
Of cour, there are other ways to help keep endangered species (28)the menu. n We need to improve the labelling of afood (29)the consumers can have all of the mfbnnation to make an informed choice/1UQ conn ation scientist Carissa Klem told ScienceAlert.
元宝馄饨And the informed choice, at least in some places, is (30)(easy) than you might miagiiie. In Australia,
where the rearchers are bad, theres the Sustainable Seafood Guide to provide the best choices for afood. Theres also Seafood Whtch in the US, which is run by the Monterey Bay Aquarium.
Section B
Directions: Fill hi each blank with a proper word chon from the box. Each word can be ud only once. Note that there is one word more than vou need.
NASA says tliere are water molecules (分子)on our neiglibor s sumiy surface. NASA has confirmed the prence of water on the moon*s sunlit surface, a breakthrough that suggests the chemical _31_ that is vital to life on Eartli could be distributed across more parts of the lunar surface than die ice that has _32_ been found in dark and cold areas.
H We don't know yet if we can u it as a resource/* NASA Administrator Jmi Bndenstine said, but he added that learning more about the water is _33_ to U.S. plans to explore the moon.
The discovery comes from the space agencys Stratospheric Obrvatory for Infrared Astronomy, or SOFIA— a(n) _34_ Boeing 747 that can take its large telescope high mto Earths atmosphere, at altitudes up to 45,000 feet. Tlio heiglits allow rearchers to peer at objects in space witli _35_ any visual disturbance from water vapor. To detect the molecules, SOFIA ud a special camera that can distinguish benveen waters specific wavelength of 6.1 microns and that of its clo chemical relative hydroxyL or OH.
The data confirm what experts have _36_. tliat water might exist on the moons sunny surface. But in recent years, rearchers had been able to document only water ice at die moon's poles and other darker and colder areas.
Experts will now try to figure out exactly how die water came to form and why it _37_. NASA scientists published their findmgs in the latest issue of Nature Astronomy.
"Data from tliis location reveal water in _38_ of 100 to 412 parts per million — roughly _39_ to a 12-oiuice bottle of water —trapped in a cubic meter of soil spread across the lunar surface/ NASA said in a relea about the discovery.
"Without a thick atmosphere, water on the sunlit lunar surface should jiist be lost to space/1 said Cas画画素描
ey HoiinibalL the lead author of a study about die discovery. "Yet somehow were eing it. Something is producing die water, and sometlung must be trappmg it there.H
There are veral possible explanations for the waters prence, mcludmg the possibility that it was delivered to the surface by stony microobjects _40_ the moon. Small balls of glass from that process could trap water according to the rearchers* paper.
ID. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phras marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phra that best fits the context.
For students chasmg lasting wealth, the best choice of a college major is less obvious than you might tliiiik.
The conventional wisdom is that computer science and engineering majors have better employment
_41_ and higher eanimgs than their peers who choo liberal arts.
This is true for the firstjob, but die long-term story is more _42_. Tlie advantage for STEM (science, technology、engmeeruig and matlieinatics) majors _43_ steadily after their first jobs, and by age 40、the eamuigs of people who majored in fields like social science or history have reached die same level.
Tliis happens for two reasons. First, many of the latest teclmical skills that are in high _44_ today become out-dated when technology progress. Older workers must learn tlie new skills on the fly, _45_ younger workers may have learned them in school. Skill undesirability and the incread _46_ from yoimger graduates work together to lower the earnmgs advantage for STEM degree-holders as they age.
Second, althougli liberal arts majors start low, they _47_ catch up to tlieir peers in STEM fields. This is by design. A liberal arts education _48_ valuable "soft skills M like problem-solving, critical tluiikmg and adaptability. Such skills are hard to quantify, and they don't create clear _49_ to high-paying first jobs. But tliey have _50_ in a wide variety of careers in the long run.
According to the Census Bureau's American Community Survey, computer science and engineermg majors benveen tlie ages of23 and 25 earned 37% higher than the average startmg salary of tho
majoring in history or social sciences. _51_, the average salary of tho majoring in computer science or engineermg by age 40 was S111,870, and social science and history majors earned $131,154, ail average that is _52_ in part, by high-paying jobs in management, business and law.
Why did that happen? Accordmg to a 2018 survey, the tliree _53_ of college graduates that employers considered most important were written coniinunication. problem-solving and the ability to work in a team. In the liberal arts tradition, the skills are built tlirougli tlie _54_ between instructors and students, and tlirough clo readmg and analysis of a broad range of subjects and texts.
I'm not suggesting tliat students should avoid niajoring in STEM fields, but I do think we should be careful of the urge to make college curricula ever more _55_ and career-focud. A four-year college degree should prepare students for the next 40 years of working life, and for a ftiture tliat none of us can miagiiie.

(A)
Alex Ehnan runs a big business — somethmg hard to imaguie after she lost her sight in her twenties. But Elman says that losing her sight helped her focus on finding success.
Elmans fatlier planted a hillside vineyard in western Massachutts in 1981. Its where Elman fled durmg the darkest period of her life. When she was 27 years old. she went blind due to complications from Juvenile diabetes (青少年糖尿病)17 years ago. She recalled, "I lud in my home. I hid in the place, to me, that was the safest place in the world. °
Elman is now the founder of Alex Ehnan Wines, a growing collection of organic wines from all around the world: Chianti from Italy, Torrontes from Argentina. Elman doesnt work alone. Her assista
nt, a guide dog named Hanley is somethmg of a wine taster and quite a beggar. Hanley travels to all of the wineries that Ehnan does, from South America to Europe.
At first, Elman resisted the idea of a eing-eye dog. Now if s hard to iniagme her life, or her business, without him. She said, "When someone tells me sometlimg is organic and I don't really believe it becau I taste something fiimiy on it. Fil put it in front of his face and if he likes the wine, he'll actually go in and sniff it. If it's not right, he'll Umi his head away ... He gets in the dirt with me. He scratches around. He makes sure that we e earthwonns and butterflies. Thafs how we know tliat the soil is actually organic, that there are no chemicals.H
Elman told CBS News she believes die loss of her vision was a gift. She said. H It allowed me to pay attention to what I thought was important and also to be able to teach people that the broken hang nail is not a big deal, you know what I mean? Dont sweat the small sniff. Don't sweat the big sniff either/* 56. From Para.2, we know tliat Elman.
