Lking back at Zheng Qinwen’s perfrmances in this year’s French Open, there’s n dubt that she’s a true fighter. Zheng says she avids being discuraged by higher-ranked ppnents by simply fcusing n the next pint, ne sht at a time. Supprted by her team, she hpes she can ne day win a Grand Slam title.

Called “America’s wlf”, the red wlf is the nly large predatr whse histric range is fund entirely within the United States, stretching frm Texas t New England. But hunting gradually reduced its range, and it was declared extinct in the wild in 1980.
Recvery effrts in the wild began in 1987 n the Alligatr River Natinal Wildlife Refuge. In a grund-breaking successful experiment, eight captive (圈养的) wlves were released this year int Nrth Carlina, eventually grwing int a ppulatin ver 100, reaching a peak f arund 120 wlves in 2012. But illegal hunting and management changes by the Fish and Wildlife Service resulted in their numbers plummeting.
In the spring, cnservatinists celebrated a small bit f gd news when fur captive-brn pups (幼兽) were placed int a cave and successfully adpted by a wild red wlf mther. Meanwhile, anther fur adults were released int the wild. The pups are thught t be still alive and healthy. But the adults didn’t g well. In the mnths after release, three were struck by cars and killed, and the furth was fatally sht n private land.
T bst the ppulatin after these deaths, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service annunced in Nvember that it planned t release nine adult red wlves int their recvery area this winter, land within and surrunding tw wildlife reserves.
The Service als recently annunced it wuld withdraw a 2018 prpsal t shrink (缩小) the red wlves’ prtected area in Nrth Carlina by 90 percent, after a lawsuit accused the agency f ging against the Endangered Species Act. Rn Sutherland f the Wildlands Netwrk says it’s crucial that the agency has abandned this wrng-headed prpsal. And yet the situatin nw is even mre urgent than it was in 2018 — this shuld launch the cnservatin cmmunity in the U. S. int crisis mde t save this species and bring it back frm the extinctin.
28. What des the underlined wrd “plummeting” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Prmising. B. Declining. C. Multiplying. D. Increasing.
29. What can we infer frm paragraph 3?
A. The released wlves lived well.
B. The ppulatin bsted after the release.
C. The red wlf faced greater threat than befre.
D. The released red wlves still needed prtectin.
30. What wuld the Service d t save red wlves?
A. Shrink the red wlves’ reserves.
B. Make a prpsal t prtect the red wlves.
C. Put sme red wlves in sme specific places.
D. Frce the prtected area int the state f emergency.
31. What des the text fcus n?
A. The prtectin f red wlves.B. Challenges faced by red wlves.
C. Reasns fr red wlves extinctin.D. The relatinship between red wlves and humans.

Many animals depend upn sund t find fd r cmmunicate with ne anther. These species understandably suffer when lud mtrways cut thrugh their habitats. Scientists have lng dcumented the eclgical damage caused by nise pllutin. It has always been assumed, hwever, that nise is a prblem unique t animals. But a new study by Ali Akbar Ghtbi-Ravandi, a btanist in Tehran, has revealed that plants fell victim t it t.
Wrking with a team f clleagues, Dr Ghtbi-Ravandi grew tw species in his lab that are cmmnly fund in urban envirnments. The plants were grwn frm seed and allwed t mature fr tw mnths in the same space befre they were divided int tw grups. One grup was expsed t 73 decibels f traffic nise recrded frm a busy mtrway in Tehran fr 16 hurs a day. The ther grup was left t grw in silence. After 15 days had passed, samples were taken frm the yungest fully expanded leaves n every plant in the experiment and studied.
Analysis f their leaves revealed that the chemicals which are indicatrs f stress in plants were fund at much higher levels in the species expsed t the traffic nise. The team als fund that certain chemicals nrmally assciated with healthy grwth in plants were present at significantly reduced levels in the plants expsed t the nise. Even the weight f the freshly-cut leaves differed — leaves frm plants expsed t nise cnsistently weighed less than thse frm plants grwn in silence.
Dr Ghtbi-Ravandi’s findings make it clear that, thugh plants lack ears, the vibratins (震动) generated by the nise f traffic still bthers them enugh t cause strng stress respnses that are nt much different t thse that wuld be fund in plants expsed t extreme cnditins.
The next questin is whether all nise pllutin affects all species in the same way. The natural wrld is by n means silent. Whether sme plant species have evlved t adapt t the nisy envirnment, which might ne day be cllected and transplanted in urban areas, is a mystery wrth explring.
32. What des the authr stress in paragraph 1?
A. The influence f nise n plants. B. Effects mtrways have n animals.
C. The imprtance f sund fr animals. D. Prblems plants have surviving in nature.
33. Hw did Dr Ghtbi-Ravandi cnduct the experiment?
A. By chsing tw rare plant species.
B. By cllecting samples frm ld leaves.
C. By making plants grw alng mtrways.
D. By studying plants grwn in different cnditins.
34. What can we knw frm Dr Ghtbi-Ravandi’s experiment?
A. Plants expsed t nise were less stressful.
B. Changes f chemicals in leaves were unclear.
C. Leaves f plants grwn in silence weighed mre.
D. Plants grew mre slwly when grwn in silence.
35. What might researchers d in the future?
A. T imprve the adapting ability f plants.
B. T develp new species with high survival rate.
C. T set mre restrictins n urban traffic nise.
D. T find plants suitable fr nisy urban areas.
