Search and rescue teams are ften accmpanied by man’s best friend. A dg’s greater sense f smell can be imprtant t finding survivrs buried under fallen buildings. But nw a new animal is being trained t assist search and rescue teams after an earthquake hits， and it’s the rat.
These rescue rats are being trained by Dr. Dnna Kean， a researcher frm Glasgw， Sctland wh has been wrking with rats fr years. Kean explained why she and her clleagues at the nnprfit APOPO train rats instead f dgs. “The rats have a cmparable sense f smell， and they’re just as trainable as dgs，” she said. “Their size is useful because they will be able t mve thrugh different envirnments that dgs just wuldn’t be able t.”
At the mment， the rats are wearing hmemade prttype backpacks that cntain micrphnes， vide equipment， and lcatin trackers， and then scientists are sending these rats int mck debris(模拟的废墟). Rats wuld be able t get int small spaces t get t victims buried in the ruins. “We have nt been in a real situatin yet， we have gt a mck debris site. When we track the backpack， we will be able t hear frm where the rat is inside the debris，” Kean said. “We have the ptential t speak t victims thrugh the rat.”
Researchers train them n a basic series f behaviur. Training starts ff in a really basic envirnment： a small and empty rm. Then they gradually increase the difficulty in rder t make it like real life. They can start adding in debris and making the training area lk mre like an actual cllapsed (坍塌的) building site.
The training just started， and researchers still have t run training trials utside the research envirnment. They are wrking with a search and rescue grup called GEA， wh are based in Turkey， a cuntry with frequent earthquakes and hping that by next year they’ll be able t take the rats t Turkey fr trials.

四、阅读理解
I remember clearly my first pineapple n ice at a crner deli in New Yrk. It was n the nrth-east crner f Clumbus and 57th Street， a stre filled with flwers and fresh prduce that stayed pen all night. In my first flush f enthusiasm fr the new city， everything abut that deli seemed great. Abundance! Cnvenience! Pineapple， freshly cut and packaged n ice! A lasting memry.
It has been 15 years since then. Crner delis remain， but under pain f cmpetitin frm a new generatin f delivery alternatives like GPuff and Getir that prmise t deliver any item within 15 minutes， getting up ff the sfa t walk half a blck fr sme milk is a lng past. One ingredient dwn fr yur dishes? N need t turn ff yur stve and put n yur shes! Instead， fr a small fee， rder a persn t yur dr bearing a single can f chickpeas. LEGS NO MORE!
The dwnfall f ld services ， and the reversal(反转) f the cnsumptin style are affecting the city landscape at all levels. As a multibillin dllar business， hyper- fast delivery is tearing at breakneck speed t make tiny delivery windws. It nt nly means mre bikes n the streets， large areas f real estate(房地产) are being turned ver t “dark stres” that yu walk past every day but can nly buy via an app nce yu’re hme.
The threat t New Yrk’s symblic delis remains t be seen. Althugh nearly every business， frm diners t bkshps， has clsed their drs ver the last 10 years， nly the New Yrk delis remain largely untuched. Still， the pressure must be intense.
Instant delivery is making us even lazier and mre useless as peple， f which I am nt prud. Last week， when running ut f milk， I rdered the delivery f a single cffee frm Starbucks. I gave myself a pass because it was cffee. But if these things are quicker and mre cnvenient， they’re als sadder and stripped f the bare minimum f human cntact needed t hld neighburhds tgether. And， like s much innvatin in technlgy， they can run cunter t(与…背道而驰) the pint f the very thing they enable.
12．What’s the authr’s first impressin f the crner deli?
A．Impressive.B．Cmfrtable.
C．Disappinting.D．Regretful.
13．What des the secnd paragraph imply?
A．Mre milk is available nwadays.
B．Chickpeas are cheaper t purchase.
C．Peple’s lifestyle has changed a lt.
D．Crner delis still have gd business.
14．What message des the authr cnvey in the last paragraph?
A．New technlgy is putting ld things ut f use.
B．Innvatin in technlgy is benefiting us greatly.
C．Fast delivery is leaving us scially discnnected.
D．Instant delivery is bringing us mre cnvenience.
15．What is the passage mainly abut?
A．A reflectin n the new cnsumptin trend.
B．An unfrgettable life experience in America.
C．An accunt f mdern fast delivery industry.
D．The pressure new technlgy brings t delis.

解析：①a考查冠词。句意：帕特里克·索米尔(Patrick Smmier)，一名法国戏剧导演，致力于将中国戏剧的真谛传递给法国公众。此处泛指“一名法国戏剧导演”，French以辅音音素开头，故填a。
②when考查定语从句。句意：2004年，在庆祝中法建交40周年之际，索米尔受邀参与了一个在法国传播京剧的联合项目。分析句子可知，空处引导定语从句，解释说明2004，从句中作时间状语，用关系副词when，故填when。
③was invited考查时态和语态。句意：2004年，在庆祝中法建交40周年之际，索米尔受邀参与了一个在法国传播京剧的联合项目。分析句子结构可知，invite在句中作谓语动词，主语Smmier与动词invite之间是被动关系，结合“in 2004”可知，谓语动词使用一般过去时的被动语态，并且主语为单数意义，故填was invited。
④Eurpeans考查名词的数。句意：索米尔说，当他到达中国时，像许多其他欧洲人一样，他对中国戏剧表现出极大的兴趣。Eurpean在句子中是可数名词，前有many ther修饰，需要用复数形式，故填Eurpeans。
⑤and考查并列连词。句意：回忆起他与中国团队的第一次合作，索米尔说，演员们的化妆、服装和令人难以置信的力量给他留下了深刻的印象。makeups、cstumes以及“the characters f incredible strength”为并列关系，使用并列连词and。故填and。

⑧largely考查副词。句意：一位教授解释说：“在中国，歌剧是一门需要终身奉献的艺术，演出的效果很大程度上取决于演员的内心力量和演技”。修饰动词用副词作状语，故填largely。
⑨t考查固定搭配。句意：索米尔开始探索不同的表演形式，并建议将中国戏剧介绍给法国观众。：把……介绍给……，填空处填介词t。故填t。
⑩riginal考查形容词。句意：然后，该团队进行了一些原创表演，有些没有化妆或服装，有些学生以传统方式表演经典作品。需填入形容词作定语修饰perfrmances，需要的词义为“原创的”，即riginal，故填riginal。
