The distinctive Northerm Bald Ibis( ),hunted nearly to extinction by the 17th century, was brought
back by raising and rewilding efforts over the last two decades.But the birds don't
know which direction to fly to migrate()without wild-born elders leading the way.So a team of scientists and
conservationists took on the role of parents and flight instructors.
Biologist Johannes Fritz and the Waldrapp team,an Austrian conservation group,have been teaching the birds
their migration paths.Since 2002,they've increased the Central European population from zero to nearly 300
birds,changing the species' status from"critically endangered" to"endangered."
To prepare them for travel,the chicks are taken away,when they are just a few days old,to their human parents
in the hope of"imprinting"-when the birds will bond with those humans to
finally trust them along the migration route.Then the human parents sit on the back of a super light aircraft,waving
and shouting words of support as it flies through the air.
It's an odd scene:The aircraft looks like a flying car with a huge fan on the back and a yellow parachute
keeping it in the air.Still,three dozen birds follow it sailing over the Alps.
Fritz,inspired by"Father Goose"Bill Lishman,who taught geese to fly alongside his ultra- light plane,leads the
birds on their migration.
The first successful independent migration was in 2011,and more birds have followed the 550- kilometer route
each year.The team hopes to have over 350 birds by 2028,making the population self-sustaining. However,climate
change has affected their migration. In response,the team piloted a new route to southern Spain in 2023,which is
longer and more challenging.
The entire journey to Spain could take up to 50 days and end in early October.But Fritz says, "The effort is
bigger than just the Northern Bald Ibises. It's about paving the way for other threatened migratory species to fly."
24.What is the major challenge faced by the Northern Bald Ibises during their migration?
A.Long distances. B.Absence of guidance.
C.Human hunting. D.Limited resting spots.
25.Why are the birds taken away when they are just a few days old?
A.To improve their flying skills. B.To show them the migration route.
C.To build an emotional tie with humans. D.To test their independence from their parents.
26.What do the research team do during their flight?
A.They shout like elder birds. B.They try new migratory routes.
C.They encourage the birds to follow. D.They use an airplane to find the way.
27.What are Fritz's words in the last paragraph mainly about?
A.The worth of the conservation effort B.The role of technology in the research
C.The need to help other migratory species D.The promising future of wildlife migration

Arm wrestling()was one ofmy favorite ways of playing with my brothers growing up. It allowed my
younger brother and me to test our strength without getting tackled.I also put up a good fight when arm wresting
with my older brother and his friends.Their greater strength and experience made the challenge even more
interesting.Every match seemed to end in a good laugh, no matter who won.
Now I'm a scientist who studies animals in the wild.I have seen that playing is a great way to socialize;there is
so much more to play than fun and games.When humans and other animals play, they are building trust with
siblings and friends.They learn how far they can push their partners before anyone becomes angry or physically
hurt.That's called"testing boundaries.”
Older playmates may self-handicap,appearing to be less competent than they really are to help younger players
learn skills and explore their abilities.Play offers a safe space,where everyone knows the rules and can experiment
with new ways to move,think,and respond to others.
Over the past 30 years,I've learned a lot about play by watching young male elephants test their strength
through sparring()games with their friends and superiors.Group sparring matches are common at sunset,when
several different elephant families show up at the water hole to drink.
After the initial excitement of the arrival and a good long drink,young males slip away from the sides of their
watchful moms and aunts to form sparring rings.An elder sister makes sure that the playing doesn't get out of
hand,so she is ever present with a trunk on the back or over the head to calm the enthusiasm.That way,the younger
males don't end up on the bottom of the pile.
Watching young elephants spar reminds me that play should be part of our everyday schedule—the less
structure,the better.
28.What does the author want to say by mentioning his/her childhood experience?
A.Winning is not the true meaning of play. B.Children prefer to play traditional games.
C.Play is essential in children's development. D.Arm wrestling is a safe way to test strength.
29.What benefit of play does the author emphasize?
A.It brings fun. B.It enables boundary breaking.
C.It settles conflicts. D.It develops socializing skills.
30.How do older playmates help the younger to learn during playtime?
A.By pretending to be weaker. B.By warning them of risks.
C.By testing their competence. D.By teaching necessary skills.
31.How would the author describe the elephant's sparring games?
A.Safe and fair. B.Not strictly controlled.
C.Well-organized. D.Highly competitive.

Weallknow cacti(仙人掌)store water-but to surive,they also adjust their flower positions to gain more sunlight
or shade,andso much more.Scientists have ben copying the resilient plants' methods to help engineer our future.
One of the most exciting advancements involves Copiapoa,a genus of cacti with at least 32 species found in
the coastal Atacama Desert,the driest nonpolar desert on Earth.These cacti,
typicall five to six inches wide,can form gray-green bushes that spread out over an area otherwise empty of
vegetation
Documented by many scientists, Copiapoas probably survive by"drinking"the salty fog that sweepsin from the
sea every morning,as well as the dew-tiny bits of water—that forms on their spines(尖刺)and skin.This has inspired
researcher Tegwen Malik from Swansea University to think about whether the dew-colleting process might be
reproduced in metal structures.
Specifically,Malik took a close look at the one-and-a-quarter-inch spines of Copiapoas and found that their
surface has a series of tiny channels that broaden at the base."This creates a surface roughness that enables
dewdrops to move along them even against gravity,"she says.
Starting in 2013,she set out to re-create that structure by engineering a flat metal reproduction of the stems and
spines of the Copiapoa,which she began testing under a series of different temperatures and humidities.After
several years of experiments—testing indoor and outdoor conditions,and with various cooling methods—she finally
got it to work.In 2023,Malik published a study showing that the irregular surface was 8 percent more efficient at
harvesting dew than a flat sheet used as a baseline.
Malik imagines desert homes with water-collecting features to provide clean water in dry regions." The easiest
way could be to place dew-harvesting surfaces on roofs,but you could also have these structures in tents in the
desert,"she says." We truly have hidden treasures in the Copiapoa,and we are only just learning some of their
secrets.”
32.What does the underlined word "resilient"mean in paragraph 1?
A.Highly adaptable to different soils. B.Able to grow quickly and efficiently
C.Resistant to diseases and harmful insects. D.Capable of surviving difficult conditions
33.What drove Tegwen Malik to study Copiapoas?
A.Their metal-like surface. B.Their mechanism to gather water.
C.Their typical appearance D.Their ability to form water drops.
34.What was the main focus of Malik's experiment with the Copiapoa?
A.Recreating a flat metal copy of it B.Testing if its metal copy would work
C.Seeing how it survives various climates. D.Finding the most efficient cooling method for it.
35.How may Malik's metal structure be applied?
A.To secure water supply in dry areas. B.To clean salty water in desert homes.
C.To enable desert explorers to travel light. D.To improve ways to discover hidden treasures.
