Six years ag, smething unfrgettable happened. My wife, Liz, and I celebrated ur 50th wedding anniversary that year. It was a lvely event hsted by ur sns fr us.

It was a cld spring day, and the Beartth Highway had pened fr the seasn just days befre. Alngside the rad, there was still a great amunt f snw remaining. The scenery was s impressive that we made numerus stps t recrd memries with my camera. At rughly the highest pint f the highway, I stpped at a lkut t catch the amazing views, with my wife in the centre f my camera lens.
There were nt many vehicles n the rad. Occasinally, cars with energetic yung turists passed by. And then we heard a mtrcycle in the distance. The driver f the mtrcycle, in rags, parked behind ur car. As he apprached us, his nly wrds were, "Give me yur camera and get ver there with yur wife." I must admit I felt nervus that we might be rbbed where we just created sme beautiful memries. Surprisingly, he just tk a picture f us, handed back my camera and rde ff befre we culd express ur gratitude. The pht he tk is ne f the mst cherished and prized f ur trip. I learnt my lessn smewhere I least expected it.

Metal-rganic framewrks（MOFs）are cmpunds（化合物）that are set t slve sme tugh challenges: prducing water in the desert, remving greenhuse gases frm the air and string dangerus gases mre safely.
The desert in Arizna is really dry. Anyne stuck in it withut water wuld die frm dehydratin（脱水）within three days unless he had ne f Omar Yaghi's next-generatin water harvesters, wh is a chemist at University f Califrnia, Berkeley. Althugh daytime humidity（湿度） is nly abut 10 percent, this rises t 40 percent at night, which means there's enugh water in the atmsphere t supprt life——if it can be transfrmed int the liquid frm.
That's exactly what Yaghi's inventin des. It's abut the size f a small micrwave ven, designed t suck water frm the air at night and turn it int drinking water the next day using nly the heat f the sun as its pwer surce. What makes it wrk is a special material called a MOF, which at nrmal temperatures attracts water mlecules（分子）nt the surface f its internal small hles. Warm it up and yu can get the water, and each harvester prduces ne third f a cup f pure drinking water. “A device abut the size f a washing machine culd prduce enugh water fr the basic needs f a husehld，"says Yaghi.
These crystalline（结晶的）grups f metals linked by rganic mlecules can be made int materials with an extremely high absrptin ability, attracting specific mlecules t their surfaces. In this way, MOFs cling t a variety f liquids and gases.
MOFs wrk thanks t their distinctive structures.
In fact, ne MOF abut the size f a sugar cube has s many small hles that they wuld cver an area as large as six ftball fields. MOFs are als extremely stable, light and have many different uses: Their mlecular structures can be varied t attract specific mlecules.
Adding a small amunt f heat r pressure causes the MOF t give what it's hlding. Mre than 70,000 different MOFs have been prduced fr varius applicatins.
Why is the desert in Arizna mentined in the secnd paragraph?
A. T intrduce water harvesters.
B. T stress the imprtance f water.
C.T shw the severity f its cnditin.
D.T express the urgent need fr water there.
29. What plays a vital rle in water harvesters?
A.Slar energy. B.Water mlecules.
C.Metal-rganic framewrks. D.Internal small hles.
30. Which can explain the underlined phrase “cling t” in Paragraph 4?
A. Refer t B. Tend t C.Hld n t D.Turn int
What is the main idea f the passage?
A.The intrductin t the MOF technlgy.
B. The future f the MOF technlgy.
C.The imprvement t the MOF technlgy.
D.The functins f the MOF technlgy.

The Amazn rainfrest, is as undisturbed a place as mst peple can imagine, but even there, the effects f a changing climate are playing ut. Nw, research suggests that many f the regin’s mst sensitive bird species are starting t evlve in respnse t warming.
Birds are ften cnsidered sentinel（哨兵）species — meaning that they indicate the verall health f an ecsystem — s scientists are particularly interested in hw they’re respnding t climate change. In general, the news has nt been gd. Fr instance, a 2019 reprt by the Natinal Audubn Sciety fund that mre than tw-thirds f Nrth America’s bird species will be in danger f extinctin by 2100 if warming trends cntinue n their current curse.
Fr the new study, researchers cllected the biggest dataset s far n the Amazn’s resident birds, representing 77 nn-migratry species and lasting the 40 years frm 1979 t 2019. During the study perid, the average temperature in the regin rse, while the amunt f rainfall declined, making fr a htter, dryer climate verall. Accrding t the reprt n Nvember 12 in the jurnal Science Advances, 36 species have lst substantial weight, as much as 2 percent f their bdy weight per decade since 1980. Meanwhile, all the species shwed sme decrease in average bdy mass, while a third grew lnger wings.
Because f the study's lng time series and large sample sizes, the authrs were able t shw the mrphlgical（形态学的）effects f climate change n resident birds. Hwever, the researchers themselves are unsure and wnder what advantage the wing length changes give the birds, but suppse smaller birds may have an easier time keeping cl. In general, smaller animals have a larger rate f surface area t bdy size, s they dissipate（散发） mre heat faster than a bigger animal. Less available fd, such as fruit r insects, in dryer weather might lead t smaller bdy size.
32. Why are scientists fnd f ding research n birds?
A. They have small bdy sizes.
B. They are sensitive t ht weather.
C. They live in an undisturbed rainfrest.
D. They are eclgical balance indicatrs.
33. What can we learn frm the new study?
A. A third f species have been extinct fr a decade.
B. 36 species lst 2%f their bdy weight every year.
C. Tw-thirds f species shwed a cnsiderable decrease in weight.
D. Abut 26 species respnded t climate change with lnger wings.
34. The passage mst prbably cmes frm?
A. A news reprtB. An autbigraphy
C. An academic articleD. A nature magazine
35. What wuld prbably the researchers further study?
A. Why it is easier fr smaller animals t keep cl.
B. What effects the wing length changes have n birds.
C. Why the Amaznian birds have lst substantial weight.
D. Whether bird species in Nrth America will be extinct in 2100.

Metal-rganic framewrks（MOFs）are cmpunds（化合物）that are set t slve sme tugh challenges: prducing water in the desert, remving greenhuse gases frm the air and string dangerus gases mre safely.
The desert in Arizna is really dry. Anyne stuck in it withut water wuld die frm dehydratin（脱水）within three days unless he had ne f Omar Yaghi's next-generatin water harvesters, wh is a chemist at University f Califrnia, Berkeley. Althugh daytime humidity（湿度） is nly abut 10 percent, this rises t 40 percent at night, which means there's enugh water in the atmsphere t supprt life——if it can be transfrmed int the liquid frm.
That's exactly what Yaghi's inventin des. It's abut the size f a small micrwave ven, designed t suck water frm the air at night and turn it int drinking water the next day using nly the heat f the sun as its pwer surce. What makes it wrk is a special material called a MOF, which at nrmal temperatures attracts water mlecules（分子）nt the surface f its internal small hles. Warm it up and yu can get the water, and each harvester prduces ne third f a cup f pure drinking water. “A device abut the size f a washing machine culd prduce enugh water fr the basic needs f a husehld，"says Yaghi.
These crystalline（结晶的）grups f metals linked by rganic mlecules can be made int materials with an extremely high absrptin ability, attracting specific mlecules t their surfaces. In this way, MOFs cling t a variety f liquids and gases.
MOFs wrk thanks t their distinctive structures.
In fact, ne MOF abut the size f a sugar cube has s many small hles that they wuld cver an area as large as six ftball fields. MOFs are als extremely stable, light and have many different uses: Their mlecular structures can be varied t attract specific mlecules.
Adding a small amunt f heat r pressure causes the MOF t give what it's hlding. Mre than 70,000 different MOFs have been prduced fr varius applicatins.
Why is the desert in Arizna mentined in the secnd paragraph?
A. T intrduce water harvesters.
B. T stress the imprtance f water.
C.T shw the severity f its cnditin.
D.T express the urgent need fr water there.
29. What plays a vital rle in water harvesters?
A.Slar energy. B.Water mlecules.
C.Metal-rganic framewrks. D.Internal small hles.
30. Which can explain the underlined phrase “cling t” in Paragraph 4?
A. Refer t B. Tend t C.Hld n t D.Turn int

The Amazn rainfrest, is as undisturbed a place as mst peple can imagine, but even there, the effects f a changing climate are playing ut. Nw, research suggests that many f the regin’s mst sensitive bird species are starting t evlve in respnse t warming.
Birds are ften cnsidered sentinel（哨兵）species — meaning that they indicate the verall health f an ecsystem — s scientists are particularly interested in hw they’re respnding t climate change. In general, the news has nt been gd. Fr instance, a 2019 reprt by the Natinal Audubn Sciety fund that mre than tw-thirds f Nrth America’s bird species will be in danger f extinctin by 2100 if warming trends cntinue n their current curse.
Fr the new study, researchers cllected the biggest dataset s far n the Amazn’s resident birds, representing 77 nn-migratry species and lasting the 40 years frm 1979 t 2019. During the study perid, the average temperature in the regin rse, while the amunt f rainfall declined, making fr a htter, dryer climate verall. Accrding t the reprt n Nvember 12 in the jurnal Science Advances, 36 species have lst substantial weight, as much as 2 percent f their bdy weight per decade since 1980. Meanwhile, all the species shwed sme decrease in average bdy mass, while a third grew lnger wings.
Because f the study's lng time series and large sample sizes, the authrs were able t shw the mrphlgical（形态学的）effects f climate change n resident birds. Hwever, the researchers themselves are unsure and wnder what advantage the wing length changes give the birds, but suppse smaller birds may have an easier time keeping cl. In general, smaller animals have a larger rate f surface area t bdy size, s they dissipate（散发） mre heat faster than a bigger animal. Less available fd, such as fruit r insects, in dryer weather might lead t smaller bdy size.
32. Why are scientists fnd f ding research n birds?
A. They have small bdy sizes.
B. They are sensitive t ht weather.
C. They live in an undisturbed rainfrest.
D. They are eclgical balance indicatrs.
33. What can we learn frm the new study?
A. A third f species have been extinct fr a decade.
B. 36 species lst 2%f their bdy weight every year.
C. Tw-thirds f species shwed a cnsiderable decrease in weight.
D. Abut 26 species respnded t climate change with lnger wings.
34. The passage mst prbably cmes frm?
A. A news reprtB. An autbigraphy
C. An academic articleD. A nature magazine
35. What wuld prbably the researchers further study?
A. Why it is easier fr smaller animals t keep cl.
B. What effects the wing length changes have n birds.
C. Why the Amaznian birds have lst substantial weight.
D. Whether bird species in Nrth America will be extinct in 2100.
