The vast area f Patagnia remains mstly unaffected by men, but il pllutin, lng-time climate change and lcal fisheries still pse many risks t the millins f Magellanic penguins (企鹅) that return there t breed (繁殖) and nest each year.
“They are the lrds f this place,” says Pabl Brbrglu, the funder and president f the Glbal Penguin Sciety. “Mst peple think that there are nly three r fur species f penguins and they all live n ice because f mvies r cartns,” he says, but these assumptins are far frm true. Of 18 species f penguins, nly fur are limited t Antarctica. “The penguins that are facing mre prblems are the nes that have t cexist with the humans,” he ntes.
Brbrglu thinks that mutually beneficial cexistence between humans and animals is essential fr the penguins’ survival. His team prmtes ec-turism and fsters cnversatins with gvernments and entrepreneurs (企业家) . In many develping cuntries, leaders want t help save species, but hard financial realities smetimes get in the way.
Still, there are victries. Ten years ag, Brbrglu and his team discvered a new grup f penguins. There were nly six pairs. S, his team made a plan t reward lcals. They pushed t establish an ecturism peratin, and wrked with lcals n management plans. The effrt created jbs fr peple and generated lcal interest in the penguins. Ten years later, they cunted almst 2,600 pairs, and the number cntinues t grw.

In recent years, gene editing has appeared as ne f the mst grundbreaking and argue-abut fields in mdern science. At its cre, gene editing invlves the strict peratin f an rganism’s DNA, allwing scientists t add, remve, r mdify genetic material.
The ptential benefits f gene editing are vast. In the medical field, it hlds the prmise f treating and even curing genetic diseases, ffering hpe t patients wh previusly had few treatment ptins. Beynd treating diseases, gene editing culd als play a crucial rle in agriculture. Scientists culd ptentially edit the genes f crps t make them mre resistant t pests, drughts, r extreme temperatures. This wuld nt nly increase fd prductin but als reduce the need fr harmful pesticides and herbicides. Crps culd be engineered t have higher nutritinal value, addressing issues f malnutritin in many parts f the wrld.
Hwever, gene editing is nt withut its risks. One f the majr cncerns is the issue f “ff-target effects.” When using tls like CRISPR-Cas9, there is a pssibility that they may cut DNA at unintended lcatins. These ff-target cuts culd lead t unfreseen genetic changes, ptentially causing new health prblems, such as an increased risk f cancer.
Anther significant cncern is the cncept f “designer babies.” There is a fear that gene editing culd be used nt just t treat diseases but als t imprve certain characteristics in humans. Parents might be able t select fr characteristics such as intelligence, height, r eye clr. This raises questins abut the fairness f access t such technlgy.
Furthermre, there are lng-term eclgical risks assciated with gene editing. If gene-edited rganisms are released int the envirnment, they culd ptentially interact with wild ppulatins in unpredictable ways. Fr instance, a gene-edited pest-resistant plant might have unfreseen effects n the insects that rely n it fr fd, destrying entire ecsystems.
As gene editing technlgy cntinues t develp, it is essential that scientists, plicymakers, and sciety as a whle engage in a cmprehensive and nging discussin. Striking the right balance between using the ptential benefits f gene editing and reducing its risks will be crucial fr the future f this pwerful technlgy.
12. What des the underlined wrd “malnutritin” in Paragraph 2 prbably mean?
A. pr nutritinB. cancerC. fldD. educatin quality
13. Which is a ptential benefit f gene editing?
A. Causing ff-target effects in human genes.
B. Treating genetic diseases and imprving crp quality.
C. Creating “designer babies” with selected characteristics.
D. Destrying ecsystems when gene-edited rganisms are released.
14. What des the authr think abut the future f gene editing?
A. It shuld be cmpletely banned due t its risks.
B. Scientists shuld develp it withut any restrictins.
C. Sciety needs t discuss t balance its benefits and risks.
D. Only wealthy cuntries shuld be allwed t use this technlgy.
15. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. The Risks f Gene Editing
B. The Wnders f Gene Editing
C Gene Editing: Benefits and Risks
D. Gene Editing in Agriculture and Medicine

At the pening ceremny f the campus basketball cultural festival, the sptlight was flashing and the music was exciting. The entire gym was immersed in a warm and lively atmsphere. The members f the schl basketball team, dressed in brand-new unifrms, made a brilliant entrance in the cheers f the crwd. Hwever, nly the team captain, Liam, had a slightly heavy step and his eyes were filled with wrry. He was well aware that the upcming city-wide high schl basketball league was a huge challenge fr this team, which had been in decline recently.
After the pening ceremny, with anxiety verwhelming him, Liam dragged his heavy feet twards the cach’s ffice. Cach Jhnsn sat in his ffice, the dim light casting shadws acrss the walls decrated with medals and phtgraphs f his basketball-winning teams. Liam, stepped inside, his eyes filled with uncertainty. “Cach, I need yur advice. The team’s been struggling, and I dn’t knw hw t bring them tgether.”
Cach Jhnsn smiled, mtining (示意) fr Liam t take a seat. “Let me tell yu a stry,” he began, his vice sft and reliable. “When I was abut yur age, I was part f a basketball team that faced challenges similar t yurs,” he said, his eyes distant with memry. “We were talented, but we lacked the trust that true teamwrk requires. We played fr individual glry, nt fr each ther. As a result, we fund urselves lsing basketball games we shuld have wn, ur ptential unrealized. One day, ur cach pulled us aside and shared a prfund (深刻的) truth: ‘The heart f team wrk lies nt in the screbard, but in the bnds with ne anther. When yu play fr each ther, when yu lift each ther up, yu becme unstppable. ‘Frm that mment n, we shifted ur fcus. We started playing fr each ther, celebrating ur teammates’ successes as if they were ur wn. We picked each ther up when we stumbled, and we faced challenges as a united grup.”
Liam’s eyes widened with understanding, a glimmer f hpe sparking within him.

Even under pressure, they stayed calm and fcused n supprting each ther. In the final minutes, they faced a tugh lead change, but instead f panicking, they stayed united. With ne last play, Liam passed the ball t the right teammate, and the crwd cheered nt just fr the win, but fr the team spirit that made it pssible.
