【参考译文】
每年的4月22日是地球日。这是为地球做好事的日子。这也是一个思考如何全年帮助地球的时刻。阅读以下四个年轻人为地球母亲采取行动的故事，获得灵感吧！
抗击野火
当 Reshma Ksaraju 12岁时，他们家搬到加利福尼亚州。不久之后，野火爆发了。现年17岁的Reshma 说：“那是加利福尼亚州历史上最大的火灾之一。”她的学校距离火场约200英里。但由于烟雾，学生们不得不戴口罩。“那对我来说是一次可怕的经历。”她说。这让她想要找到解决方案。她发明了一种使用人工智能预测森林火灾的方法。这种方法的准确率接近90%.
回收电力
在10岁生日那天，Sri Nihal Tammana了解了一个可怕的事实。每年有150亿个电池被扔掉。它们污染地下水并危害环境。Nihal的组织“回收我的电池”提供电池回收箱。现在，它是一个由全球250名学生志愿者组成的团队。在过去的三年里，他们帮助回收了26万多个电池。
救援工作
10岁的 Miles Fetherstn-Resch 致力于拯救海洋。当他得知鲨鱼正处于危险之中时，他说服他的妈妈帮助他成立了一个非营利组织。这个组织名为“孩子们拯救海洋”。它的网站销售由海洋中发现的塑料制成的T恤、帽子和贴纸。每一笔销售中的一部分（到目前为止约4万美元）都会捐赠给支持清洁水道的慈善机构。
绿色未来
Mia Price是她所在的学校的Green Team的主席。该组织最近达成了在学校餐厅消除塑料水瓶的目标。为使学校校园更加环保，她向学校提出了自己的想法。她的想法包括安装太阳能电池板和LED灯泡，以及回收旧体育馆的材料。
【语篇解读】
本文主要介绍了四名学生为保护环境所做出的努力和行动，包括使用人工智能预测森林火灾、提供电池回收服务、创建非营利组织拯救海洋以及推动校园更加环保。
【答案解析】
1.A 推理判断题。由第一则新闻的She created a way t use AI t predict frest fires.可知，Reshma Ksaraju
想出用AI预测森林火灾的办法。由此可推断，她在利用科学技术帮助救火。
2.D细节理解题。由第二则新闻的第一、二句可知，Sri Nihal Tammana 了解到的可怕事实是每年大量被扔掉的废旧电池污染了环境。
3.B细节理解题。由第三则新闻的最后一句可知，Kids Saving Oceans 把卖东西得到的一部分钱捐赠给支持清洁水道的事业。由此可推断，他们把一部分钱捐给了慈善机构。
4.B推理判断题。由第四则新闻的第二句可知，Mia和她的团队在学校餐厅消除塑料水瓶。由此可推断，他们在学校停止使用塑料水瓶。
5.A主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了为保护环境做出努力的四名学生。故A项最适合作标题。
【长难句分析】
★Its website sells T-shirts,hats,and stickers made ut f recycled plastic fund in the cean.
它的网站出售用海洋中发现的回收塑料制成的T恤衫、帽子和贴纸。
T-shirts、hats和stickers是并列宾语；made ut f recycled plastic fund in the cean 作三个并列宾语的后置定语；fund in the cean作recycled plastic的后置定语。

Since 2012,remte sensing(遥感）scientist Liu Shachuang has led a team in tracking and studying wild camels using satellite remte sensing technlgy. Liu has studied the relatinship between endangered animals and their envirnment,which he believes will help develp better prtectin plicies in the face f climate change.
In the run-up t Wrld Wildlife Day n March 3,2023,Liu's research came under the sptlight, as it was held up as a successful example f hw develped space technlgy can benefit animal prtectin effrts n Earth. Liu wrks at the Aerspace Infrmatin Research Institute f the Chinese Academy f Sciences.His interest in wild camels began when his team tested a design f the lunar rver Yutu in the desert.
Living in the deserts in nrthwestern China and suthwestern Mnglia,the even-ted camel is listed as critically endangered by the Internatinal Unin fr Cnservatin f Nature.Experts believe that the ppulatin f this species is currently less than 1,000,f which arund 650 are in China.
＂Ten years ag,the research depended n human bservatin,which was very primitive(原始的），”Liu says.Because wild Bactrian camels are fully migratry and can travel ver lng distances,scientists used t learn their habits by studying ftprints and drppings.It was hard t find ne camel in the desert,let alne track it.Hwever,Liu thught his skills in remte sensing might cme in useful in the study f wild camels.
It was nt easy at first. Liu had t learn zlgy frm scratch. His team had t spend several weeks each year lking fr camels. “The mst exciting mment was attaching trackers t the wild camels,”
Liu recalls.On May 6,2012, Liu's team, fr the first time,succeeded in putting a satellite psitining cllar（颈圈）n a wild camel in Xinjiang's Lp Nur Desert.
His latest discvery is that the suitable living hme has becme much smaller because f climate change,and that wild camels have mved t the clder Altun Muntain Range in China, and higher-altitude areas in Mnglia as a result.
1.Hw lng has Liu's team tracked wild camels?
A. Fr abut five years.
B.Fr abut nine years.
C.Fr abut eleven years.

自2012年以来，遥感科学家刘少创带领团队利用卫星遥感技术跟踪和研究野生骆驼。刘少创研究濒危动物与环境之间的关系，他认为，面临气候变化，这将有助于制定更好的保护政策。
在2023年3月3日世界野生动物日前夕，刘少创的研究受到了关注，因为这被认为是一个成功的例子，说明发达的太空技术如何有利于地球上的动物保护工作。刘少创在中国科学院航天信息研究所工作。他对野生骆驼的兴趣始于他的团队在沙漠中测试月球车玉兔的设计。
平头骆驼生活在中国西北部和蒙古西南部的沙漠中，被国际自然保护联盟列为极度濒危物种。专家认为，目前该物种的数量不足1000头，其中约650头生活在中国。
刘少创说：“十年前，这项研究依赖于人类的观察，这种方法很原始。”由于野生双峰驼是迁徙的，可以长途跋涉，科学家们过去常常通过研究它们的足迹和粪便来了解它们的习性。在沙漠中很难找到一头
骆驼，更不用说跟踪它了。然而，刘少创认为他的遥感技术可能在野生骆驼的研究中派上用场。
一开始并不容易。刘少创不得不从头学习动物学。他的团队每年都不得不花几个星期的时间寻找骆驼。“最激动人心的时刻是给野生骆驼系上追踪器。”刘少创回忆道。2012年5月6日，他的团队首次在新疆罗布泊沙漠的一头野生骆驼身上成功放置了卫星定位颈圈。
他的最新发现是，由于气候变化，适宜居住的地方变得小得多，因此，野生骆驼已经迁徙到更寒冷的中国阿尔金山脉，以及蒙古的高海拔地区。

自2012年以来，遥感科学家刘少创带领团队利用卫星遥感技术跟踪和研究野生骆驼。刘少创研究濒危动物与环境之间的关系，他认为，面对气候变化，这有助于制定更好的保护政策。
【答案解析】
1.C推理判断题。由第一段的Since 2012,remte sensing scientist Liu Shachuang has leda team...和第二段的．．．n March 3,2023,Liu's research came under the sptlight...可知，刘少创的团队跟踪骆驼已有约11年。
2.C推理判断题。由第三段的 listed as critically ppulatin f this species is currently less than 1,000...可推断，第三段表明骆驼濒临灭绝。
3.D 词义猜测题。下文提及“可以长途旅行”，上文对应表示：由于野生双峰驼是迁徙动物。
4.B 推理判断题。由第五段可知，刘少创从头开始学习动物学，他的团队每年都要花几个星期的时间寻找骆驼，给新疆罗布泊沙漠的一头野生骆驼成功戴上了卫星定位颈圈，这说明刘少创全身心地投入到科研工作中。
【长难句分析】
★ Experts believe that the ppulatin f this species is currently less than 1,000, f which arund 650 are in China.专家认为，目前该物种的数量不足1000头，其中约650头生活在中国。
that引导宾语从句；f which...是介词提前，关系代词which引导的定语从句，which指代less than 1,000.
