16、ck from a T-ball game. In our driveway, we spotted two adult geese and a small gosling. The adults were frightened by our return and flew away, but their baby was still too young to fly and couldnt follow. Hours passed and night fell. The tiny little thing was wandering around our yard, unaware of w
17、hat could happen, and it was clear that the gosling needed protection, warmth and food to make it to the morning. At that point, we had to bring him into our backyard. We all pretty much slept with one eye open for several days. Each morning, we would try to rush the goose over to his parents, who k
18、ept coming back to our yard. He wouldnt go to them, though, and they wouldnt come close enough to claim him. The young goose had clearly decided we were his new family, and my twin sister Joanna called the little guy Peeper. Almost a year passed and we settled into a routine filled with feathery hug
19、s and company. One evening my uncle came over, and my dad threw Peeper up into the air to show he could fly around the house, but this time, Peeper just flew off. Everyone was very sad. Twenty years passed, and Peeper became a fond memory for my family. In 2019, an aging adult goose made his way bac
20、k to my home. At first, I assumed it was just another Canada goose. After two weeks of the goose coming back repeatedly, it became clear to me that this wasnt a random goose.

24、lobal warming that causes coral bleaching, in addition to certain human activities without proper control and environmental consciousness. Recently, researchers from Thai university Chulalongkom have created 3D-printed coral reefs modeled on the nature of real corals called Innovareef to accelerate
25、the recovery of the coral reef ecosystem. Innovareef corals are coated with calcium and phosphate nutrients（钙磷营养物）that corals need to thrive and consist of flat surfaces. The reefs holes serve as habitats and hiding placesfor many sea animals. Artificial reefs also make use of hydrodynamics technolo
26、gy to enhance their resistance to tidal forces and ensure that they stay in place. Finally, the pH （level of acidity） of the selected type of cement used for the reefs is close to that of seawater, and the design concept is that of Lego, easily assembled（组 装）and disassembled blocks that are easy to
27、transport and fix. “The Innovareef is not too large. Its light-weighted and can be carried by anyone thus saving transportation costs. You can simply put it at any desired location in the sea and then dive down to put all the units together to complete the Innovareef. Not even five minutes afterward
28、, fish and several ocean creatures start to come in to survey and make it their new habitat, leading to biodiversity around the Innovareef. More importantly, the research data indicates that the settlement and growth rates of planula on the Innovareef are better than those on other artificial reefs,
29、 said Associate Professor Dr. Nantarika Chansue at Chulalongkorn University. Innovareef is the hope for the effective recovery of natural coral reefs. Now the team is focused on adding more details so that the new structures look more like natural reefs. For the future generations of Innovareef, the
30、 team will develop a more specific design for each sea species in the area. 28. What function is expected of the Innovareef?A. To extend the life of corals. B. To monitor the growth of corals. C.

What are Dr. Nantarika Chansues words mainly about?A. The advantages of the Innovareef. B. The inspiratio
32、n for the Innovareef. C. The methods of improving ocean habitats. D. The importance of protecting biodiversity. 31. What will researchers probably do in the future?A. Apply the Innovareef on a large scale. B. Carry out more tests on the Innovareef. C. Make a specific design of the Innovareef. D. Con
33、duct further research on natural coral reefsDA recent study in Japan has revealed that aI wearable soft robot, named Relicbo, can improve the experience of patients in medical treatments, such as injections（注射）and other unpleasant therapies. The purpose of the robot is to help ease pain and defend p
34、eople against anxiety. The study, led by researchers at the University of Tsukuba, was inspired in part by the numerous needles people had to endure while being vaccinated（接种疫苗）against COVID-19. Some people felt an intense dislike for these needles, which led to fewer people getting vaccinated. The
35、robot is soft and covered in fur. It contains small airbags internally that inflate（膨胀）in response to hand movement. Participants in the study who wore the robot while subjected to a medium heat stimulation, experienced less pain in the test than those who did not wear the robot. The test proved tha
36、t the pain and anxiety being felt could be reduced sharply by lessening the experience of pain through using the robot. The research team checked the effectiveness of the wearable robot while being handled by participants under certain conditions, based on the clenching of the hand. The team placed
37、painful heat stimulation on the other arm that was not holding the robot. They then measured cortisol levels from the participants saliva samples, suggesting levels of stress hormones. The pain felt by the patients was given specific ratings and was also recorded using an assessment scale. The peopl
38、e in the study were given a survey test to assess their fear of injections before and after the experiment with the wearable robot was completed. The study proved that holding the robot can case the experience of patients who were receiving injections. The research team hopes to use this study to ad
39、vance the robot for use during painful situations, such as getting medical shots or similar conditions. 32. What is the function of the robot?A. To assist doctors in injecting accurately. B.

41、onducting the experiment on the robot. C. The advantages of the new robot in the medical field. D. The process of reducing peoples fear of injections. 35. What will researchers probably do next?A. Evaluate the risk of the robot. B. Develop other devices for medical treatment. C. Promote the applicat
42、ion of the robot. D. Carry out more tests on the robot. 第二节（共5小题, 每小题2分, 满分10分）根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Have you ever done something that you didnt really want to do, just because other people were doing it?_36_.
