1、Unit 3Careers and skills.阅读理解A2022武汉市高三供题As a child, Paolo Fanciulli was attracted by underwater abandoned ships, particularly the fish and seagrass that lived in them. But in the past decade, his job as a fisherman has grown harder, as trawling (用拖网捕鱼) near the coast has been destroying the Mediter
2、ranean ecosystem. “The nets are weighed down with heavy chains to be dragged on the sea bottom, so they uproot the seagrass that is key to the Mediterranean ecosystem，” he said.While Italian law bans trawling within 5.5 kilometres of the coast, its so profitable that its not uncommon for boats to ca
3、rry on illegally at night.In 2006, a desperate Tuscan government dropped concrete blocks into the sea to interrupt the trawlers. Fanciulli said they didnt work as they were too far apart and the nets simply dragged between them. He then began to wonder: what if, instead of dropping concrete blocks i
4、nto the water, he dropped art? He asked a mine in nearby Carrara to donate two marble (大理石) blocks to make sculptures. They donated 100 instead.Through word of mouth, contributions and online crowdfunding, Fanciulli persuaded artists including Giorgia Butini and Beverly Pepper to carve sculptures fr
5、om the marble. Then he took them to sea and lowered them in. The underwater sculptures create both a physical barrier for nets and a unique underwater museum.The “museum” appears to be having some effects gradually. Although 10 years ago the seagrass was disappearing, it is now growing back. The sta

All kinds of undersea life appears to be returning. Seagrass covers the statues, shellfish has taken up residence,
7、and more dolphins have been seen.Fanciulli hopes to build on the museums success. “We put in the first statues in 2007 but our goal is to reach 100，” he said, sensing an opportunity.1What has made Fanciullis job grow harder?AAn illegal fishing practice.BThe declining fishing industry.CThe concrete b

10、eet in 2010, he was expecting to see a primitive white environment. What he found was a “colorful mix” from black and gray to green, purple and brown, with neon (霓虹) blue melt streams cutting through the ice. The rainbow colours Cook encountered are created by a collection of tiny life forms that re
11、produce on the surface of the ice sheet. Biodiversity is usually considered a good thing, but in this case the abundance of tiny life is speeding up ice melting, and likely causing global sea level to rise faster than scientists have predicted.Cook says the tiny life forms he studies are contributin
12、g to the problem. One of these organisms is an alga (海藻) that grows in the thin layer of water on the surface of the ice. It produces a purplebrown pigment (色素) which acts “like a natural sunscreen”， says Cook, protecting the algae from the full force of the Arctic sunlight. The pigment also causes
13、the ice to heat up and melt.“If you go out on a hot day wearing a black Tshirt, you get warmer than if you go out on a hot day wearing a white Tshirt. The same thing happens on the ice，” says Cook. “These algae, like the black Tshirt for the glacier, are causing it to warm up in the sun and melt fas
14、ter.”Cooks research on a part of the Greenland ice sheet covering 3,900 square miles revealed that algae are responsible for up to 13% of the ice melting. In some localized areas, the algae boosted melting by up to 26%.Glacier algae are not a new phenomenon there are records of them in the diaries o

Whats becoming clear is that ice sheets are surprisingly dynamic and complex environments. “There are so many questions to answer，” says Cook. “Its kind of like a theme park for a scientist because theres just so much to do.”5What is quickening th
