While rcas are knwn fr their well-designed jint attacks n unsuspecting ceanic animals, they have never psed a threat t humans. Hwever, since July 2020, the nrmally scial animals have been intentinally attacking sailbats ff the casts f Spain. The unusual hstility is puzzling scientists wrldwide.
The strange behavir first surfaced n July 29, when Victria Mrris, a bilgy graduate, nticed nine rcas circling the 46 ft bat she was crewing near the shres f the Strait f Gibraltar. She was initially cheerful t see the friendly animals, with which she had numerus encunters while teaching sailing in New Zealand. Hwever, that changed when the rcas started striking the bat repeatedly fr almst an hur. “They almst turned the bat ver and the deafening nise was terrifying,” she said.
The cntinuus attacks brke the bat's autmatic rudder, leaving the bat disabled. Spanish bilgist Rci Espada says, “It is crazy. I've seen these whales grw frm babies. I knw their life stries. I've never seen r heard f attacks.”
Since then, ver 30 mre similar incidents have been reprted. Sme researchers believe the rcas' unusual behavir culd be a result f the verfishing f tuna—rcas' primary fd surce—which has left the area's rcas starving and unable t feed their babies. “I saw rcas lk at bats carrying fish. The intelligent animals may knw humans are smehw related t fd shrtages,” says Ken Balcmb, an American scientist.
Hwever, Alfred Lpez a Spanish bilgy prfessr, thinks the attacks were preventative measures the rcas adpted t prtect themselves against bat injuries. The researcher came t this cnclusin after lking at the ftage f a few incidents filmed n the scene and nticing that tw f the yung rcas invlved had serius injuries. The scientist wasn't sure if the rcas were hurt during r befre the recent bat encunters. Lpez said, “Our interpretatin is that they dn't have the slightest intentin f attacking peple.” Hpefully, the experts will find a way t restre the harmny between the animals and humans sn.

Callaghan, father f a teenage girl — Emma, culdn’t understand why he had develped a disease which nrmally affects men twice his age.
“I was by myself,” Callaghan recalled. “I thught it was a kidney stne (肾结石). I was in the dctr’s ffice fr abut 45 minutes that day. I dn’t remember anything mre than ne minute f it.” He believed anyne wh had his cnditin wuld live nly 12 mnths. And he wuld take tablets every day, pssibly fr the rest f his life.
Callaghan began finding hpe in a small act f lve fr Emma: handwriting ntes f lve n a napkin and placing it in her lunch bx; nthing unusual r life-changing, just sme wrds f encuragement t Emma t think f during the day. His numbered days meant numbered napkins. “The reasn why I started writing ntes t her is that I want t matter in her life,” Callaghan said. “I see s many wrking parents tday wh give up a lt f their parenting. I want Emma t be able t lk at me at whatever age she is and say ‘My dad lves me. I need his advice, I need his lve and I trust that my dad’s ging t be there.’”
But what started ut as a father’s way f shwing his daughter his lve quickly grew.

A sheet f transparent new material at a University f Maryland lab lks like it might be plastic. But it’s actually wd—and it culd eventually be used t make energy-efficient windws r even see-thrugh buildings.
"Cmpared t glass, wd has lwer heat cnductivity, and it's lighter, strnger, and mre envirnmentally friendly," says Liangbing Hu, a materials science prfessr at the University f Maryland and ne f the authrs f a new study f the material.
The idea is t emply the material in buildings. With a windw made frm transparent wd instead f glass, fr example, a building wuld take less energy t heat and cl. Because f the structure f the wd, the windws culd als reduce glare frm the sun while allwing in natural light.
Researchers have experimented with transparent wd in the past, but the new methd is mre sustainable.
Other methds usually put the wd in a chemical cmpund Nacl t remve lignin, part f the wd that gives it structure. But this can weaken the wd, and it prduces waste that is hard t recycle. Hu and his team made slight changes t the prcess s it desn't fully remve the lignin. By brushing hydrgen perxide(过氧化物) ver the wd and leaving it under a UV light, they remved nly the parts f the lignin that give it clr. The result is transparent wd that can be cated in epxy(环氧树脂).
It’s just ne f a number f ways scientists and engineers are rethinking hw we can use this renewable resurce in cnstructin. Skyscrapers made entirely ut f wd are gaining ppularity in cities arund the wrld. And scientists recently discvered a technique t grw wd in a lab, pening up the pssibility f using wd withut having t cut dwn a frest.
The transparent wd is 50% strnger than previus transparent wd and culd even be used t build lad-bearing walls in a building. It culd als ptentially be used in ther ways, such as layers used in slar cells. A new cmpany called InventWd is wrking t cmmercialize the technlgy.
12. Why wuld peple like t chse transparent wd in their buildings in preference t glass?
A. It can cnduct heat mre quickly.
B. It is lighter and mre delicate.
C. It can let light in with less heat.
D It has higher energy cnsumptin.
13. Cmpared with the experiment in the past, what is the difference f the new methd?
A. The new methd is less envirnmentally friendly.
B. The new methd can make the wd weaker.
C. Researchers brushed Nacl ver the wd.
D. Researchers nly tk away the lignin related t clr.
14. Which f the fllwing statements may the authr agree with ?
A. This see-thrugh wd can replace glass windws.
B. This see-thrugh wd is in mass prductin.
C. This transparent wd has been grwn in labs.
D. This transparent wd is nly ppular in cities.
15. What des the last paragraph mainly fcus n?
A. The advantages f transparent wd.
B. The prspect f transparent wd.
C. The prductin f transparent wd.
D. The cmpanies f transparent wd.

A sheet f transparent new material at a University f Maryland lab lks like it might be plastic. But it’s actually wd—and it culd eventually be used t make energy-efficient windws r even see-thrugh buildings.
"Cmpared t glass, wd has lwer heat cnductivity, and it's lighter, strnger, and mre envirnmentally friendly," says Liangbing Hu, a materials science prfessr at the University f Maryland and ne f the authrs f a new study f the material.
The idea is t emply the material in buildings. With a windw made frm transparent wd instead f glass, fr example, a building wuld take less energy t heat and cl. Because f the structure f the wd, the windws culd als reduce glare frm the sun while allwing in natural light.
Researchers have experimented with transparent wd in the past, but the new methd is mre sustainable.
Other methds usually put the wd in a chemical cmpund Nacl t remve lignin, part f the wd that gives it structure. But this can weaken the wd, and it prduces waste that is hard t recycle. Hu and his team made slight changes t the prcess s it desn't fully remve the lignin. By brushing hydrgen perxide(过氧化物) ver the wd and leaving it under a UV light, they remved nly the parts f the lignin that give it clr. The result is transparent wd that can be cated in epxy(环氧树脂).
It’s just ne f a number f ways scientists and engineers are rethinking hw we can use this renewable resurce in cnstructin. Skyscrapers made entirely ut f wd are gaining ppularity in cities arund the wrld. And scientists recently discvered a technique t grw wd in a lab, pening up the pssibility f using wd withut having t cut dwn a frest.
The transparent wd is 50% strnger than previus transparent wd and culd even be used t build lad-bearing walls in a building. It culd als ptentially be used in ther ways, such as layers used in slar cells. A new cmpany called InventWd is wrking t cmmercialize the technlgy.
12. Why wuld peple like t chse transparent wd in their buildings in preference t glass?
A. It can cnduct heat mre quickly.
B. It is lighter and mre delicate.
C. It can let light in with less heat.
D. It has higher energy cnsumptin.
13. Cmpared with the experiment in the past, what is the difference f the new methd?
A. The new methd is less envirnmentally friendly.
B. The new methd can make the wd weaker.
C Researchers brushed Nacl ver the wd.
D. Researchers nly tk away the lignin related t clr.
14. Which f the fllwing statements may the authr agree with ?
A. This see-thrugh wd can replace glass windws.
B. This see-thrugh wd is in mass prductin.
C. This transparent wd has been grwn in labs.
D. This transparent wd is nly ppular in cities.
15. What des the last paragraph mainly fcus n?
A. The advantages f transparent wd.
B. The prspect f transparent wd.
C. The prductin f transparent wd.
D. The cmpanies f transparent wd.

【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“they remved nly the parts f the lignin that give it clr(他们只移除了部分的让木头有颜色的木质素)”可知，跟之前的实验不一样的地方在于，这些研究者只移除了赋予木头颜色的木质素，故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章首段“But it’s actually wd—and it culd eventually be used t make energy-efficient windws r even see-thrugh buildings (但事实上，它是木头，并且它可以被用于制作节能型的窗户或者透视大楼)”可知，作者认为透明木头有可能取代现在的玻璃窗户。故选A。
