Winning a remarkable science award is really a big deal, especially if yu are 12 years ld. But Shanya Gill, a middle schler frm San Jse, Califrnia, wn the tp award in the Therm Fisher Scientific Junir Innvatrs Challenge fr designing a fire detectin system that is superir t existing nes, as stated in the press release.
“The tp winners have exhibited bundless curisity,” Maya Ajmera president and CEO f Sciety fr Science, said in the press release. “Their remarkable research nt nly reflects their talent but als paves the way fr an exciting new future.”

After she studied fire statistics, Shaya spent ver a year develping a fire detectin system that she believes culd have prevented the fire. Unlike traditinal smke detectrs that sense active fires frm the smke in the air, Shanya’s thermal (热的) imaging device is designed t stp fires frm ccurring.
With a thermal camera and a tiny cmputer, the device detects when a heat surce has been left unattended fr ten minutes and sends a text message warning. Shanya wants t bring the csts dwn t make it even mre cmmn than hardwired smke detectrs.
“Shanya saw a prblem, went after it and tried t slve it, and that’s what we need t encurage with all yung peple,” said Ajmera. She als highlighted the significance f supprting individuals, especially girls and kids f clr, in STEM fields.

In nature, ctpuses (章鱼) hunt mainly with their sense f tuch, using their eight arms t feel ut their envirnment fr hidden creatures. Researchers at the University f Minnesta recently studied a different way ctpuses hunt—when they identify prey (猎物) based n sight. The study findings shw that the marine creatures are quite cnsistent and methdical in hw they apprach prey.
Lead researcher Trevr Wardill and his team placed Califrnia tw-spt ctpuses int water tanks, hiding them in caves where they wuld have ne eye lking ut. They then placed either fiddler crabs r white shrimp in the tanks t see hw the ctpuses wuld try t catch them, capturing the interactins n vide. The crabs and shrimp behave differently when trying t escape frm predatrs (捕猎者), s using bth species gave the researchers an pprtunity t see whether this led the ctpuses t use a different arm fr hunting depending n the prey.
Wardill’s team fund that the ctpuses almst always used the same arm t grab their prey. Specifically, the secnd arm frm the middle f the ctpuses’ bdy, n the same side f their bdy as the eye, caught the prey. If they needed mre arms t grab prey, they wuld use the nes next t the secnd arm.
The ctpuses als attacked differently depending n the prey. When faced with crabs, an ctpus wuld mve suddenly n tp f the crab with its whle bdy. Hwever, when catching shrimp, the ctpuses wuld take ne arm and reach ut very slwly tward the shrimp, then grab it and latch (缠住) nt it with its ther arms t pull it in.
Wardill and his team hpe t d mre research. They want t study the ctpus’s brain as it attacks pre y t develp a better understanding f what rle the creature’s nervus system plays in selecting the arms it uses.
8. What is the recent study mainly abut?
A. Octpuses’ ability t hide itself.B. Octpuses’ way t track prey.
C. Octpuses’ hunting mde via eyes.D. Octpuses’ methd f perceiving the envirnment.
9. What can we learn abut the ctpuses in the study?
A. They adpt different strategies t hunt.B. They stretch arms slwly t catch crabs.
C. They mve suddenly t prey n shrimps.D. They use the secnd arm t catch prey anytime.
10. What des the fllw-up test aim t find ut abut the ctpuses?
A. Whether they’re nervus in hunting.B. Hw their nerves wrk during hunting.
C. Hw they chse their arms in hunting.D. Whether they use their brain during hunting.
11. Which f the fllwing can be a suitable title fr the text?

The Glbal Fd Dnatin Plicy Atlas has issued a recent reprt in rder t recmmend ways t increase fd dnatins, reduce fd waste, and fight hunger, which may help Kenyan leaders meet 2030 fd waste reductin gals.
Fd dnatin can rerute eatable fd—that wuld therwise give ff greenhuse gasses in a landfill—t thse experiencing hunger. Accrding t the Famine Early Warning Systems Netwrk, 3.5 millin Kenyans, rughly 37 percent f the ppulatin, face severe hunger. At the same time, the Plicy Atlas reprts rughly 40 percent f fd prduced within Kenya ges t waste. But Brad Leib, Deputy Directr f Harvard Law Schl Fd Law and Plicy Clinic (FLPC), sees sme prmising changes. “While prgress is nt happening as quickly as needed, Kenya’s fd lss index has been steadily reduced frm 1,744 metric tns in 2017, t 1,531 in 2018, t 1,446 metric tns in 2019, indicating a steady imprvement and natinal cmmitment t fd lss reductin,” reprts Brad Leib.
Accrding t the Plicy Atlas, mtivating fd dnatin with rewards is particularly imprtant, which helps fd dnrs and fd recvery rganizatins make up fr csts necessary fr recvery, string, prcessing, and transprting fd fr dnatin.
“A majr driver f fd waste is incnsistent r unclear date labels that cause cnfusin amng all actrs alng the value chain and limit the ability f businesses t dnate fd. This increases the likelihd that much safe fd will g t waste,” Brad Leib tells Fd Tank. Hwever, he acknwledges Kenya’s current dual (双的) date labeling laws. While fd may lse its freshness ver time, it is still eatable befre expiratin (到期). Dual date labeling n packaged fds reduces bewilderment by defining dates fr bth safety and quality. This helps reduce cnsiderable waste and respnsibility fr dnrs.
Brad Leib believes that the private sectr can als play a significant rle in decreasing fd waste in Kenya. It is vital fr cnsumer educatin campaigns. FLPC’s research shws that public-private initiatives can help raise awareness amng cnsumers and dnrs arund issues f fd waste and fd dnatin.
12. What changes des Brad Leib see?
A. Peple in Kenya n lnger suffer hunger.
B. Kenya has gradually reduced its fd waste.
C. Kenya is nt cmmitted t reducing fd lss.
D. Prgress in reducing fd waste is happening quickly.
13. What des the underlined wrd “bewilderment” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Sadness.B. Cnvenience.C. Cnfusin.D. Emtin.
14. Hw can Kenya reduce fd waste accrding t Brad Leib?
A By increasing strehuses.
B. By fighting hunger with rewards.
C. By reducing fd prduced within the cuntry.
D. By using duble date labeling n packaged fd.
15. What can we learn frm the last paragraph?
A. Cnsumer educatin campaigns are the mst imprtant.
B. Only the private sectr is helpful in reducing fd waste.
C. Private and public jint effrts matter arund fd issues.
D. Brad Leib desn’t agree with FLPC n fd waste reductin.

47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
When starting my sixth-grade year, I was nervus abut many things. But nthing cmpared t the prblem that I gt t the age where my vice started changing. At first, the vice getting deep excited me. But then I learned befre getting deeper, it can crack (变嘶哑).
The first time it happened I was s embarrassed. Surprisingly, my friends didn’t make fun f me. In fact, they didn’t even mentin it. But in my self-cnscius sixth-grade mind I was certain they made fun f me behind my back. They weren’t having the same prblem.
After my first vice crack experience, I was determined t make sure it wuldn’t happen again. At least nt in public. S, except fr strategic times I said, “cl” and “yeah”, I didn’t talk. My lgic was, “If I dn’t use my vice, it cannt crack.” Hwever, I culdn’t g withut talking frever. I needed a new slutin.
I began clearing my thrat befre speaking, which actually seemed t help. Limiting hw much I spke and clearing my vice made me much less stressful. This was great but there was a larger prblem. I was much mre scared abut having a vice crack during class. My class had many new kids I’d never spken with. I didn’t want their first impressins f me t be based n a vice crack.
Unfrtunately, ne day my cncern came true. It was abut tw mnths after the beginning f the term. On the day it happened everything was the same as always until I gt int the classrm. I nticed that we had a substitute teacher (代课老师) and immediately started thinking abut hw he wuld take attendance. My permanent teacher never had t, since he already knew each student, I panicked. S many thughts rushed thrugh my mind that I culdn’t think straight. I calmed myself dwn by telling myself that I nly had t say ne wrd “Here”. “Easy enugh, right?” I thught s until my name was called. I did my rutine — cleared my thrat, tk a breath, and said, “Here.” The nly prblem was that while saying this, I had the wrst vice crack in the histry f vice cracks.
