While many animal ppulatins seem t be dwindling, ne species that is mving in the ppsite directin is America’s native wd strk (林鹳).
The wd strk is the nly strk that breeds in Nrth America. In 1984, it was declared an endangered species after its ppulatin fell t just 5,000 mating pairs. At the time, scientists predicted that the bird wuld be cmpletely wiped ut by 2000．Tday, it numbers 10,000 mating pairs, and US Fish and Wildlife Service is prpsing a deletin f the wd strk as an endangered species.
S hw did the ppulatin bunce back? The success is in part dwn t the resurcefulness (智谋) f the wd strk. The wd strk’s native hme was in the Everglades in Flrida, but it migrated nrth as the Everglades were being destryed by develpment. In 1987, frmer Savannah Natinal Wildlife Refuge bilgist Jhn Rbinette nticed strk nests in Gergia as strk ppulatins mved t safer wetlands.
Accrding t Stephanie Kurse, a senir plicy specialist at the Centre fr Bilgical Diversity, the Endangered Species Act is als the key factr t this recvery. In an email t Natinal Public Radi, she said, “The act saved the wd strk and it helped preserve and rebuild vital habitats thrughut the sutheast, which has imprved water quality and benefited cuntless ther species that call the area hme.”
The Endangered Species Act has saved many f the species that were n the list since 1973. A hundred types f plants and animals have been delisted (从表上剔除) as their ppulatins becme stable again.
Accrding t sme lcal envirnmentalists, if the wd strk is delisted in the future, it will remain prtected by ther laws and a mnitring plan will be put in place t ensure the ppulatin remains stable.

9. Hw did the scientists find wd strk’s situatin in 1984?
A. Amazing.B. Satisfying.C. Wrrying.D. Bring.
10. Hw many reasns fr the increase f wd strk are mentined in the text?
A. One.B. Tw.C. Three.D. Fur.
11. What can we knw abut the Endangered Species Act?
A. It is harmful.B. It is cstly.C. It is riginal.D. It is effective.

Tw f the biggest challenges faced by new and ptential electric vehicle (EV) drivers are range anxiety and the speed f charging. Hwever, these shuldn’t have t be challenges at all. That is accrding t a study by Chalmers University f Technlgy, Sweden, and the University f Delaware, USA. Researchers discvered that a change in refuelling mindset (观念模式), rather than imprving the size r perfrmance f the battery, culd be the answer t these cncerns.
Researchers have nw identified three different types f behaviur arund refuelling a car. The first mdel is the mnitring fuel gauge (测量仪器) mdel — the driver refuels when the fuel is running ut. The secnd mdel is the planning a trip mdel — the driver plans when and where they will stp t refuel their vehicle alng a jurney. The third mdel is the event-triggered mdel — the driver autmatically plugs in (接通电源) as sn as arriving hme r wrk. The first mdel represents hw mst peple refuel a petrl car, and the third mdel is the best fr EV usage.
Experienced EV users have chsen an event r lcatin t trigger their plug-in; fr example, they will autmatically plug in when they cme hme r get t wrk, s it becmes part f their mrning r evening rutine, which makes it less f a chre t think abut charging. There is a lt f emphasis n the time it takes t charge an EV, but if yu d it vernight, it is just the time it takes t plug it in.
In cnclusin, fr mst peple’s everyday driving, the new study shws that yu dn’t have t think t much abut charging at all. In terms f cst, it is als a lt cheaper t charge slwly vernight r at wrk than fast charging n the g, and it is better fr the health f the battery.
12. In which part f a newspaper can yu mst likely t read the text?
A. Culture.B. Technlgy.C. Fashin.D. Health.
13. What des the text advise EV drivers t d?
A. Mnitr fuel gauge ccasinally.B. Think abut the speed f charging.
C. Charge EVs at night r during wrk.D. Plan their trips accrding t their cars.
14. What can be inferred frm the text?
A. A bigger battery is the best slutin t range anxiety.
B. It’s difficult fr drivers t remember t charge EVs.
C. Fast charging is much cheaper than slw charging.
D. Charging is nt a cncern fr thse wanting t buy EVs.
15. What may be the best title fr the text?
A. Chsing a better EVB. Petrl cars r electric cars?
C. Slw charging r fast charging?D. Changing yur refuelling mindset
