Pcknett is ne f the peple best knwn fr making indigenus (土著的) fds. Her restaurant, pened in 2021, is her wn way f using her peple’s knwledge t feed Americans tday. And she hpes the menu shws the width and depth f indigenus fds.

Pcknett wrks n a reductin f beach plums (海滨李) t pair with the venisn. T wash it all dwn, there are pts full f iced tea made frm biled sassafras (檫树) rts.

While AI’s influence n varius industries like healthcare is widely discussed, the legal prfessin has received less attentin. In fact, the business f law is well-psitined t achieve the highest ROI (投资回报率) frm using AI.
Law firms (公司) are seen as traditinal but mst have used machine learning fr years. In the business f law, AI-driven time and cst savings are typically very high. The benefits have led t the appearance f a new type f law firm-AI-centric (aka AI-native) law firms. Staff (全体职工) and lawyers at AI-native firms make the mst f AI fr varius tasks such as research. AI-native law firms als use AI t service custmers wh require persnalized treatment.
Every day, junir assciates (初级律师) need t wrk fast and crrectly, yet never miss anything imprtant. The wrk can tire them, leading t mistakes. AI can d in secnds what takes days fr a junir assciate. Speed gives AI a great rle in the legal field, with ROI well beynd the “traditinal” 10 t 20 percent. AI-centric firms can grw withut increasing the supprt staff. Wherever AI reduces csts, it frees up funds fr marketing develpment. AI makes marketing cmmunicatins faster and easier fr law firms, as it des fr ther businesses.
AI’s psitive effect n wrk satisfactin is ften underappreciated. Accrding t a 2023 Thmsn Reuters survey, lawyers at AI-native firms ften send repetitive tasks t AI. Supprt staff and junir assciates becme, in effect, supervisrs (监督人) f AI. This truly imprves wrk satisfactin.
Are law firms jumping n bard and ging AI-native in large numbers? Surprisingly the answer is n. Accrding t anther survey 60% had n plans t use AI. That’s gd news fr the ther 40%. The legal prfessin is amng the industries achieving the best ROI frm the use f AI. Law firms shuld “get it” and enjy greater grwth and prfitability.
8. What makes the new kind f law firm special?
A. The high ROI.B. The effective use f AI.
C. Fcusing n AI cheating cases.D. Prviding persnalized treatment.
9. What is paragraph 3 mainly abut?
A. Why AI is helpful t law firms.B. What high ROI means t law firms.
C. When AI will take ver traditinal law firms.D. Hw law firms deal with marketing challenges.
10. What did the Thmsn Reuters survey find?
A. The legal prfessin ften has high prfitability.
B. Supprt staff are very imprtant t a law firm.
C. AI cntributes t increasing jb satisfactin.
D. Law firms are leading in using AI.
11. Which f the fllwing will the authr prbably agree with?

The Muntain Bng (a type f antelpe) has been driven t near extinctin, accrding t the IUCN (Internatinal Unin fr Cnservatin f Nature). Eclgist Mrdecai Ogada says, “It can nly be fund in the wild in Kenya, highly endangered, and that is why prtecting this species is imprtant.”
The ppulatins f the animals have been greatly reduced. The animals have been hunted fr their meat and their prized cat, skulls, and hrns. Human-wildlife activities, especially the sharing f grunds with livestck (家畜), als led t the spread f diseases.
Sme were traded t zs in the United States and effrts t save the animals have depended n returning them t Kenya. At ne time, there were nly 18 f these creatures left in captivity (圈养) there. They were sent back t Kenya in 2004 t breed (繁殖) them and re-establish the Muntain Bng in their natural area. But it has been a slw prcess.
“S, the bngs that are cming back frm zs need a very lng time t be able t get used t the wild envirnment again and it takes several generatins,” explains Philippe Cauviere, chief executive fficer at Munt Kenya Wildlife Cnservancy. “And that is why it has taken such a lng time t get where we are tday. We’ve had mre than 70 births.”
T supprt the recvery f the species in the wild, the gvernment agency, Kenya Wildlife Service, tgether with Munt Kenya Wildlife Cnservancy, set up the Mawingu Bng Sanctuary as part f the Natinal Muntain Bng Recvery and Actin Plan 2019-2023. The sanctuary is n the slpes (坡地) f Munt Kenya. There are plans t set free 25 Muntain Bngs in this prtected area. This will help the rewilding f the animals as well as reintrducing them int their riginal habitats.
“Finally what needs t be dne t save the Muntain Bng is their habitat has t be prtected-these are the highland frests. I think the gal here is nt captivity but t increase wild ppulatins and rewild them and reintrduce them int this cuntry,” Ogada says.
12. What is discussed in paragraph 2?
A. Suggestins n hw t prtect the Muntain Bng.
B. Great prgress n saving the Muntain Bng.
C. Reasns why the Muntain Bng is imprtant.
D. The reductin in Muntain Bng ppulatins.
13. Why has the rewilding prcess f the Muntain Bng been slw?
A. There is the prblem f habitat lss.B. There are nt enugh research funds.
C. They need time t adapt t the wild again.D. They are under threat frm ther species.
14. What shuld be dne t save the Muntain Bng accrding t Ogada?
A. Making the Mawingu Bng Sanctuary larger.B. Prtecting their highland frest habitats.
C. Making mre laws t prevent hunting.D. Keeping them in zs.
15. What is the best title fr the text?
A. Kenya rushes t prtect endangered antelpe.
B. Rewilding the Muntain Bng seems impssible.
C. Zs are getting mre effective at wildlife prtectin.
D. The changing envirnment is challenging the Muntain Bng.

And she hpes the menu shws the width and depth f indigenus fds.
Pcknett’s menu is based n a simple idea: “The fd I grew up with,” she says. She cks what’s lcal and what’s in seasn. I watch Pcknett prepare venisn (鹿肉) tpped with nin (洋葱) rings, which, she admits, aren’t exactly a deep-rted traditin; they’re “frm a mix” , she says, “but I just lve them.”
Pcknett wrks n a reductin f beach plums (海滨李) t pair with the venisn. T wash it all dwn, there are pts full f iced tea made frm biled sassafras (檫树) rts.

The ppulatins f the animals have been greatly reduced. The animals have been hunted fr their meat and their prized cat, skulls, and hrns. Human-wildlife activities, especially the sharing f grunds with livestck (家畜), als led t the spread f diseases.

“S, the bngs that are cming back frm zs need a very lng time t be able t get used t the wild envirnment again and it takes several generatins,” explains Philippe Cauviere, chief executive fficer at Munt Kenya Wildlife Cnservancy. “And that is why it has taken such a lng time t get where we are tday. We’ve had mre than 70 births.”
T supprt the recvery f the species in the wild, the gvernment agency, Kenya Wildlife Service, tgether with Munt Kenya Wildlife Cnservancy, set up the Mawingu Bng Sanctuary as part f the Natinal Muntain Bng Recvery and Actin Plan 2019-2023. The sanctuary is n the slpes (坡地) f Munt Kenya. There are plans t set free 25 Muntain Bngs in this prtected area. This will help the rewilding f the animals as well as reintrducing them int their riginal habitats.
“Finally what needs t be dne t save the Muntain Bng is their habitat has t be prtected-these are the highland frests. I think the gal here is nt captivity but t increase wild ppulatins and rewild them and reintrduce them int this cuntry,” Ogada says.

A. Suggestins n hw t prtect the Muntain Bng.
B. Great prgress n saving the Muntain Bng.
C. Reasns why the Muntain Bng is imprtant.

C. They need time t adapt t the wild again.D. They are under threat frm ther species.
14. What shuld be dne t save the Muntain Bng accrding t Ogada?
A. Making the Mawingu Bng Sanctuary larger.B. Prtecting their highland frest habitats.
C. Making mre laws t prevent hunting.D. Keeping them in zs.
15. What is the best title fr the text?
A. Kenya rushes t prtect endangered antelpe.
B Rewilding the Muntain Bng seems impssible.
C. Zs are getting mre effective at wildlife prtectin.
D. The changing envirnment is challenging the Muntain Bng.
