Banff Natinal Park is hme t an amazing wildlife ppulatin. But the busy Trans Canada Highway that cuts thrugh the park is a hazard t the lvely animals. T address the prblem, Banff first put-up wildlife fencing n either side f the highway t discurage animals frm entering the busy rad. Then, since 1996, they’ve pened six wildlife verpasses and 38 underpasses t help the animals crss the highway in safety. I was frtunate t visit Banff’s Red Earth Overpass with Trevr Kinley, the prject manager with Parks Canada. He tld me that s far, they have dcumented 10, 000 safe animal crssings n this verpass alne. “ Sme animals have learned hw t use the crssings much mre quickly than thers. Black bears are the fastest learners, fllwed by deer. Wlves and lins take the lngest t wrk ut hw t use them, ” Kinley said, laughing. “ But thse animals that are slwer t adapt are usually mre capable and determined at figuring ut the safest way t crss thse verpasses and underpasses. ”
There is sme criticism (批评) that channeling s much wildlife int a few bridges and tunnels is like making a trap fr the animals, ffering big animals an easy meal n either side. “ But research has shwn that this is nt the case, ” Kinley assured me. “ There are n mre killings arund the crssings than there are anywhere else in the park. ”
Walking ver the Trans Canada and then walking underneath thrugh ne f the tunnels, I was amazed t see the fresh tracks f black bears, wlves, deer and many kinds f smaller animals. Smehw, all these animal ftprints made me s happy, knwing that all this wildlife was passing safely under and ver the lngest rad in Canada.
Hpefully, the success f the wildlife crssings in Banff will cntinue t inspire similar slutins arund the wrld, where human pressure n wildlife cntinues t grw.

C. Mre killings might happen at the crssings.D. Illegal hunting might be encuraged in the park.

Biluminescence (生物发光) is a natural phenmenn wherein a chemical reactin within an rganism’s bdy prduces light. It can be fund in many places in nature — fireflies sme mushrms — but mstly in the deep sea.
Recently, Rambuillet, a small histric French twn, has teamed up with a cmpany called Glwee t turn the city int a full-scale biluminescence labratry. The gal is t change the way in which cities use light. The cmpany uses marine (海的) bacteria harvested frm the cast f France. It makes sme f the twn’s public light up in the cl blue f biluminescence.
These biluminescent bacteria are stred in a seawater filled tube, giving the bacteria rm t flat arund and light up. The light prvided by the bacteria is part f their natural metablism, s prducing the light requires n energy ther than that which is needed t feed the rganisms. This makes it much mre envirnmentally friendly and sustainable than electric light, which cnsumes a huge amunt f nn-renewable energy.
“On the way t lighting up the wrld with biluminescence, yu have t feed the bacteria and add water as they grw. That’s nt s easy. The phenmenn will be very temperature-dependent and I dubt that it will wrk in the winter. Als, biluminescence is nt very bright cmpared t electrical lighting, thugh they have imprved the light intensity,” Carl Jhnsn, a prfessr frm Vanderbilt University said.
One ptential slutin t these issues — and ne that Glwee is lking int — is t remve the bilgical aspect f the whle prcess. Theretically, luciferase (荧光素酶) can be remved frm the bacteria and used t create light instead f the bacteria itself. Because luciferase is nn-living, it desn’t need t be fed. Creating new means f sustainable lighting is a way f being envirnmentally friendly withut plunging the earth back int darkness.
8. What d we knw abut Glwee?
A. It is an ancient labratry in France.
B. It slves pwer shrtages in castal cities.
C. It adpts biluminescence as a light surce.
D. It feeds marine rganisms t prduce chemicals.
9. What des Paragraph 3 mainly fcus n?
A. The reasns fr energy waste.
B. The advantages f the marine bacteria as light.
C. The living cnditins f the biluminescent bacteria.
D. The difficulties f string biluminescent rganisms.
10. What des Carl Jhnsn cnvey in his wrds?
A. The bacteria wrk mre efficiently under lw temperatures.
B. It will cst t much t imprve the luminescence intensity.
C. The applicatin f biluminescence enjys a bright prspect.
D. The develpment f biluminescence faces many challenges.
11. What culd be the best title f this text?
A. A Histric Twn Lit up by Nature
B. The First Zer-carbn City in the Wrld
C. A Refrm f Prducing Electricity in Cities
D. The Discvery f Luciferase in Marine Bacteria

Althugh it is a business nt many are aware f, sidewalk rbts are set t becme an industry with annual sales f $1 billin within a decade. These fur-r six-wheeled autnmus machines, usually the size f a suitcase, are already delivering grceries in America, China and Eurpe, which puts them ahead f many driverless cars and lrries being develped.
Thse bigger vehicles are held back nt by technlgy but regulatin. This means having a “safety driver” n bard ready t take ver if there is a prblem, which is hardly labur-saving. Fr these larger vehicles, regulatrs want t see safety systems thrughly prved. In January 2022, Britain’s Law Cmmissin, which reviews lawmaking, recmmended that it shuld nt be the persn in the driver’s seat wh faces prsecutin if a vehicle in autnmus mde crashes, but the manufacturer r the bdy that sught apprval fr its use.
Hwever, sidewalk rbts are getting n with the jb. Fr example, Starship Technlgies, based in San Francisc, estimates it has already clcked up mre than 2.5 millin deliveries with rbts in a number f cities, universities and business parks in Eurpe and America. Amazn is carrying ut trials with a similar srt f machine. Kiwibt, a Clmbian startup, is making sidewalk deliveries in Califrnia. Udelv, a Califrnian firm, is develping a larger type called Transprter t perate at highway speeds.
Sidewalk rbts carry a few bags f grceries using a variety f sensrs, including cameras, radar and GPS t navigate and avid bstacles and peple. Their prgress can be mnitred n a phne app, which als unlcks them fr gds t be remved. As they are small, mve slwly and are “telemnitred” by peple in a cntrl rm wh can take ver, authrities seem mre willing t give them a green light.
Such rbts are becming mre autnmus. Being much further alng the rad in earning their keep, these delivery rbts are helping t pave the way fr the time when bigger autnmus vehicles can jin them.
12. What is paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A. Prblems caused by autnmus cars.B. Suggestins fr prducing intelligent rbts.
C. Challenges faced by large driverless vehicles.D. The innvative technlgy f delivery vehicles.
13. Why des the authr give sme examples in paragraph 3?
A. T prve the safety f autnmus machines.
B. T present the develpment f sidewalk rbts.
C. T encurage the public t create mre rbts.
D. T shw the advantages f self-driving technlgy.
14. What can we knw abut sidewalk rbts?
A. They are envirnmentally friendly.
B. They can distinguish traffic lights n the rad.
C They make deliveries faster than rdinary trucks.
D. They make it easy fr peple t track the delivery prcess.
15. Which sectin f a magazine is this text prbably taken frm?
A. Sprts and music.B. Business and culture.
C. Science and technlgy.D. Nature and gegraphy.
