One day in a small town in Missouri, Nema, Joe, and Sandy were driving back to St. Louis when they saw a
fruit market by the road. Joe and Sandy loved markets, so they stopped and hung around. They were looking at
vegetables and fruit when they came across the grape section. There were lots of grapes to choose from. Joe loved
grapes, so he bought a big bushel.
When Sandy and Joe finished shopping, they met Nema at the car with the grapes. There were too many to put
on the back seat because Nema had too many other packages, so Joe put them in the trunk. Joe dropped off Nema
and headed home with Sandy. It was very late when they got home, and Joe forgot to take the grapes out of the
trunk.
The next morning while on his way to work, he heard a buzzing sound and wondered what it was. He turned on
a window and noticed little black and gold things flying out of the vents (通风口). They were bees! Joe’s car was
filled with bees that he had to pull over and roll his windows down. A lot of bees flew out, but there were a lot left.
Joe finally made it to work. He rolled down the windows so the rest of the bees would have a way to escape while he
was working.
On his way home, more bees came out of the vents. He couldn't know where they were from. When he got home,
he told Sandy about that. She asked him if he ever took the grapes out of the trunk. Joe said no. He went to the car,
opened the trunk, and hundreds of bees were flying around! Joe ran inside and Sandy told him the bees must have
come from the grapes. Joe took the grapes out and dumped them on the ground. Then came out a beehive along with
the grapes, which explained why many bees were in Joe’s car.4. Where did Joe put the grapes?
A. On the left front seat. B. On the back seat.
C. In the trunk. D. On the seat.
5. When did Joe begin to find the bees in the car?
A. When he left the market. B. When he arrived home.
C. When he went to work. D. When he opened the trunk.

C. To enjoy the scenery outside. D. To lower the temperature in the car.
7. Who figured out the cause of the incident?
A. Joe. B. Sandy. C. Nema. D. Joe’s family.

Tagging (贴标签) a shark requires quick action and good timing, according to Jon Dodd, director of the
Atlantic Shark Institute. This South Kingstown-based nonprofit organization, co-founded by a lifelong Rhode
Islander, attaches various types of tags to sharks to track and study them. The process, conducted by a team of four
to six people, involves attaching the tag, taking blood samples, and measuring the shark, all within a maximum of
12 minutes. If the shark shows any signs of pain, it is immediately released back into the sea, regardless of whether
all data has been collected.
Tagging helps researchers track sharks’ movements and gather valuable data about their behavior and habitat.
Given the vulnerability (脆弱) of many shark species, the institute follows strict rules for handling the animals.
Traditional J hooks (钩子), which can cause deadly injuries, have been replaced with safer circle hooks to increase
the chances of a shark's survival if the hook cannot be removed.
The type of tag used depends on the species and the study’s objectives. National fisheries tags, the least
expensive, are provided for free by NOAA Fisheries. These tags contain index (索引) cards that provide
information when retrieved. Acoustic tags, costing $425 each, last about a decade and track sharks’ movements via
signals picked up by acoustic receivers along the East Coast. The most advanced tags, pop-up satellite archival tags,
cost up to$4,000 and provide detailed data such as water depth and temperature for about two years.
Dodd, who has spent over 45 years studying sharks, expresses deep concern about their declining populations.
He highlights the slow growth and maturation rates of many species, such as the great white shark, which takes
many years to reach an adult. This slow reproduction rate, combined with high death rates from bycatch (误捕),
finning, and recreational fishing, has led to a 71% decline in global shark populations since 1975. Dodd emphasizes
that healthy shark populations are crucial for maintaining ocean health, which in turn affects human health.8. Which best describes the tagging process?
A. Demanding. B. Dangerous. C. Time-consuming. D. Well-paid.
9. What does paragraph 2 talk about?
A. Approaches to choose hooks. B. Ways to collect data.
C. Hooks for safer tagging. D. Reasons for injuries.
10. What does the underlined word “retrieved” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Attached. B. Searched. C. Released. D. Achieved.
11. What does Dodd imply about sharks?
A. They have high survival rates. B. They are easy to tag.
C. They reproduce quickly. D. They play an important role.
D
Federal regulators gave a strong push to electric-powered air taxis Wednesday by issuing a final rule for operating
the aircraft and how pilots will be trained to fly them. The head of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Mike
Whitaker, said the rule recognizes air taxis as an entirely new type of aircraft that will soon join airplanes and
helicopters in the sky.
These aircraft take off and land vertically (垂直地), like helicopters, but fly like fixed-wing planes. Many
companies are working to get them on the market, but they have been held back by the lack of clarity (清晰) over
regulations to govern their use. Whitaker said the FAA is stressing safety as it works to fold the new aircraft into the
nation's airspace. He said “powered-lift aircraft” are the first new category of aircraft in nearly 80 years, since the
dawn of helicopters, and the rule will allow for their widespread operation.
Air taxi supporters call them a cleaner alternative to passenger planes that burn jet fuel. So far, however, current
technology limits their size and likely means that they will be used most often in urban areas. One of the companies
in the new field praised the FAA regulation. CEO Joe Ben Bevirt said, “The rules are necessary and will certainly
play a positive role in the healthy development and adoption of clean flight.”
Airlines see air taxis as a way to deliver passengers to airports. Delta Air Lines said in2022 it would invest $60
million, and this month a Japanese company announced a $500 million investment. United Airlines is backing another
California-based company, with an order for 200 aircraft that Archer said could be worth $1 billion with an option
for $500million more.
12. What does the air taxi refer to in the text?
A. An electric-powered taxi. B. A new, kind of plane.
C. A new type of large bus. D. A taxi as big as a helicopter.
13. What keeps the air taxi from being put to the market?A. Lack of clear regulations. B. No large investments.
C. Shortage of official approval. D. High costs.
14. Why are some people in favor of the air taxi?
A. For its perfect technology. B. For its low prices.
C. For its clean energy. D. For its comfort and convenience.
15. What is the attitude of the Japanese company to the air taxi?
A. Doubtful. B. Cautious. C. Favorable. D. Unconcerned.

Anika pulled her wheeled suitcase behind her when following her parents through the airport. She looked all
around her in the huge building that seemed to be filled with thousands of people. It was going to be her first time on
an airplane. She was very excited, or rather just a little nervous. She hugged her favorite doll tight. That made her
feel better.
She walked down the narrow aisle of the plane to find her seat with her parents. The tall flight attendant smiled at
,
her and asked where they were going. “A world-famous entertainment resort ” Anika said with a smile.
“I think so,” replied the flight attendant. “Most of the families on this flight are headed that way.” She pointed
to her name tag. “I'm Leanne. Let me know if you and your pretty doll friend need anything.”
“Thanks. I'm Anika, and this is Pansy,” said Anika, holding the doll up to show her. “Nice to meet you both,”
replied Leanne. The flight was a few hours so she read a book with Pansy and did some puzzles her mother had
packed for the trip. Soon she was getting a little tired and bored too.
Anika’s mom suggested she get some sleep, asking for a pillow and a blanket. Anika tucked Pansy under the
blanket and fell asleep quickly. In no time, it seemed, she was being woken up again because it was time to land.
They had arrived!
She wasn’t quite awake yet. Her mother and father were busy packing up. They picked up their bags and jackets,
ready to leave the plane. Leanne walked past them, collecting the pillows and blankets from the passengers.
“Bye, maybe I will see you next week on your return flight home,” Leanne said and waved goodbye to Anika
and the other passengers as they left the plane.
As Leanne shook out the blankets she had gathered from the seats, the flight attendant was surprised when a doll
fell out onto the floor. She picked it up and recognized it as the doll young Anika had shown her.
