Ants have the ability t smell cancerus cells in humans， a new study has discvered， suggesting they culd be used fr cancer diagnsis in future. Researchers frm the French Natinal Centre fr Scientific Research (CNRS) discvered that ant species Frmica fusca has a well develped sense f smell. It was able t differentiate (区分) cancerus cells frm healthy cells in humans， thanks t their sense f smell， limited trials revealed.
T cnduct their research， the scientists perfrmed tests with 36 ants， smelling cells under a labratry setting. First， the specialists expsed the ants t the smell f a sample f cancerus human cells. This smell was then assciated with a reward f sugar slutin. In a secnd step， the researchers expsed the ants t tw different smells. One was a new smell and the secnd was the smell f the cancerus cells. Once this test was successful， the researchers expsed the ants t different cancerus cells.
As such， the scientists fund that ants discriminate between cancerus and healthy cells and between tw cancerus lines. After training， Frmica fusca ants are able t detect vlatile rganic cmpunds given ff by cancerus cells. This first study shws that ants have high ptential， are capable f learning very quickly， at lwer cst， and are efficient， CNRS pints ut in a news release.

Hwever， training them t d s requires several mnths t a year. Ants therefre represent a fast， efficient， inexpensive， and highly discriminant detectin tl fr detectin f cancer cell vlatiles，” the team explained， “ur apprach culd ptentially be adapted t a range f ther cmplex smell detectin tasks including the detectin f narctics， explsives， spiled fd， r ther diseases.”
But mre clinical tests must be carried ut befre they culd be used in clinical settings like hspitals， the team said. They suggest that in future， ants culd turn ut t be better than dgs when it cmes t lcating cancerus cells in humans. Wh knws? Let’s wait and see.
12．Hw des the authr intrduce the tpic f ants’ptential use in cancer diagnsis?
A．By cmparing ants t dgs.
B．By presenting the results f a new study.
C．By describing the training prcess f ants.

16．“Oh n， Haley. Why are yu crying?” A questin we ften hear when we’re chpping nins. ①

(我们对客人的建议是，让所有来访的孩子在浅水区进行基本的游泳测试，以判断他们的技能——如果他们没有通过，那么深水区是严格禁止他们进入的，即使有漂浮辅助工具，因为它们可能是危险地不可靠的！)”可知，推荐来访的孩子进行游泳测试是为了确保他们在游泳时的安全。故选A项。
2．答案： B
解析：．细节理解题。根据第四段“Sun Prtectin—The water is nt the nly ptential hazard in a swimming pl， expsure t harmful UV rays can be cmpunded as they reflect ff the water’s surface， and if n measures are taken can deliver a nasty sunburn that may even require a dctr’s care!

4．答案： A
解析：词义猜测题。根据第一段“Let g f the shell yu’re in while yu’re alive(活着的时候，要放开你所处的躯壳)”可知，活着的时候，要放开你所处的躯壳，这样你才能走出困住你的笼子。再根据“All the external parts f yur life are like a dream(生活的所有外部部分都像是一场梦)”可知，生活的所有外部部分都像是一场梦。由此推知，cage指的是生活中的外部压力，故选A。

6．答案： C
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段“After he said thse wrds， I changed my decisin. It was a mment f grace， a mment where I was given anther chance and an pprtunity t start again and live a life I wanted t live.(听了他的话之后，我改变了决定。那是一个恩典的时刻，一个我被赋予重新开始的机会，过上我想要的生活的时刻)”可知，听了亚历克斯的话，作者改变了主意。这是一个恩典的时刻，作者得到了另一个机会和一个重新开始的机会，过自己想要的生活。由此可知，作者在与亚历克斯交谈后，受到了鼓舞，去追求自己的梦想和目标，故选C。
7．答案： B

It was a mment f grace， a mment where I was given anther chance and an pprtunity t start again and live a life I wanted t live.(听了他的话之后，我改变了决定。那是一个恩典的时刻，一个我被赋予重新开始的机会，过上我想要的生活的时刻)”可知，作者是通过描述一个具体的事件以及它对自己生活的影响来展开这篇文章的，故选B。
8．答案： D
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The natinal statistics bdy reprted Wednesday that the birth rate fell t 0.72 in 2023—dwn frm 0.78 the previus year.(国家统计机构周三报告称，2023年的出生率降至0.72——前一年为0.78)”及“In 2022， the cuntry recrded abut 249， 000 births and 372，800 deaths. Meanwhile， Krean wmen are als having children later in life. The average age f childbirth in Suth Krea was 33.5 last year.(2022年，该国记录了约24.9万例出生和37.28万例死亡。与此同时，韩国女性生育年龄也在延后。去年，韩国的平均生育年龄为33.5岁)”可知，数据表明，韩国的出生率严重下降。故选D项。
9．答案： A
解析：词义猜测题。根据文章第三段“Similar ppulatin declines are being seen in several ther Asian cuntries including Japan and China， raising cncern that there will be t few peple f wrking age t supprt(包括日本和中国在内的其他几个亚洲国家也出现了类似的人口下降现象，引发了人们的担忧，对于工作年龄段人口过少而不能支撑)”及“elderly ppulatin.(老年人口)”可推知，随着人口出生率低，工作年龄人口减少不能支撑迅速增加的老年人口，因此划线词ballning与A项“迅速增加”意义相近。故选A项。
10．答案： C
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But experts and residents say mre supprt is needed thrughut a child’s life， as well as change n several deep-rted scial issues.(但专家和居民表示，需要在整个孩子成长过程中提供更多支持，同时在多个根深蒂固的社会问题上做出改变)”可知，未来韩国政府可能会持续关注孩子的生活。故选C项。
11．答案： B
解析：主旨大意题。结合全文及文章第一段“Suth Krea’s birth rate， already the wrld’s lwest， has drpped yet again in the latest setback t the cuntry’s effrts t bst its declining ppulatin.(韩国的出生率已经是世界上最低的，但它再次下降，这是该国为增加不断下降的人口所做努力遭受的最新挫折)”可知，本文主要讲述了韩国出生率严重下降的问题以及可能的原因和未来的应对措施，故B项“韩国的出生率已成为一个紧急情况”适合作为文章的标题。故选B项。

13．答案： A
解析：主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“T cnduct their research， the scientists perfrmed tests with 36 ants， smelling cells under a labratry setting.

In a secnd step， the researchers expsed the ants t tw different smells. One was a new smell and the secnd was the smell f the cancerus cells. Once this test was successful， the researchers expsed the ants t different cancerus cells. (为了进行研究，科学家们在实验室环境下对 36 只蚂蚁进行了细胞嗅探测试。首先，专家们让蚂蚁闻了闻一个人类癌细胞样本的气味。然后，这种气味与糖溶液的奖励联系在一起。在第二步中，研究人员让蚂蚁接触两种不同的气味。一种是新的气味，另一种是癌细胞的气味。一旦这个测试成功，研究人员就会让蚂蚁接触不同的癌细胞)”可知，文章第二段主要介绍了研究人员是如何进行研究的，即研究的过程。故选A。

Ants have the ability t smell cancerus cells in humans， a new study has discvered， suggesting they culd be used fr cancer diagnsis in future. Researchers frm the French Natinal Centre fr Scientific Research (CNRS) discvered that ant species Frmica fusca has a well develped sense f smell. It was able t differentiate (区分) cancerus cells frm healthy cells in humans， thanks t their sense f smell， limited trials revealed.
T cnduct their research， the scientists perfrmed tests with 36 ants， smelling cells under a labratry setting. First， the specialists expsed the ants t the smell f a sample f cancerus human cells. This smell was then assciated with a reward f sugar slutin. In a secnd step， the researchers expsed the ants t tw different smells. One was a new smell and the secnd was the smell f the cancerus cells. Once this test was successful， the researchers expsed the ants t different cancerus cells.
As such， the scientists fund that ants discriminate between cancerus and healthy cells and between tw cancerus lines. After training， Frmica fusca ants are able t detect vlatile rganic cmpunds given ff by cancerus cells. This first study shws that ants have high ptential， are capable f learning very quickly， at lwer cst， and are efficient， CNRS pints ut in a news release.

(我们对客人的建议是，让所有来访的孩子在浅水区进行基本的游泳测试，以判断他们的技能——如果他们没有通过，那么深水区是严格禁止他们进入的，即使有漂浮辅助工具，因为它们可能是危险地不可靠的！)”可知，推荐来访的孩子进行游泳测试是为了确保他们在游泳时的安全。故选A项。
2．答案： B
解析：．细节理解题。根据第四段“Sun Prtectin—The water is nt the nly ptential hazard in a swimming pl， expsure t harmful UV rays can be cmpunded as they reflect ff the water’s surface， and if n measures are taken can deliver a nasty sunburn that may even require a dctr’s care!

(防晒——水不是游泳池中唯一的潜在危险，暴露在有害的紫外线中会加剧，因为它们会在水面反射，如果不采取措施，可能会导致严重的晒伤，甚至需要医生的护理！在身体所有暴露的部位涂抹防水防晒霜。不要使用防水产品，它们的防水时间不长，只会让事情变得更糟！)”可知，在游泳时，应该涂抹防水防晒霜来保护自己免受紫外线的伤害。故选B项。
3．答案： C
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段“A swimming pl is a wnderful additin t a hme that the whle family is sure t enjy!

4．答案： A
解析：词义猜测题。根据第一段“Let g f the shell yu’re in while yu’re alive(活着的时候，要放开你所处的躯壳)”可知，活着的时候，要放开你所处的躯壳，这样你才能走出困住你的笼子。再根据“All the external parts f yur life are like a dream(生活的所有外部部分都像是一场梦)”可知，生活的所有外部部分都像是一场梦。由此推知，cage指的是生活中的外部压力，故选A。

6．答案： C
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段“After he said thse wrds， I changed my decisin. It was a mment f grace， a mment where I was given anther chance and an pprtunity t start again and live a life I wanted t live.(听了他的话之后，我改变了决定。那是一个恩典的时刻，一个我被赋予重新开始的机会，过上我想要的生活的时刻)”可知，听了亚历克斯的话，作者改变了主意。这是一个恩典的时刻，作者得到了另一个机会和一个重新开始的机会，过自己想要的生活。由此可知，作者在与亚历克斯交谈后，受到了鼓舞，去追求自己的梦想和目标，故选C。

10．答案： C
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But experts and residents say mre supprt is needed thrughut a child’s life， as well as change n several deep-rted scial issues.(但专家和居民表示，需要在整个孩子成长过程中提供更多支持，同时在多个根深蒂固的社会问题上做出改变)”可知，未来韩国政府可能会持续关注孩子的生活。故选C项。
