From the concert halls of Europe to the tech industries of the United States , C. J. Santos has created a
story across the globe.
Born in Brazil, Santos moved to Switzerland at the age of 18, and earned degrees in both music
performance and business administration there. During his next 10 years’ “intense” career as a professional
musician, he spent most of his time on the road. “I had the honor to perform in the top concert halls in
Europe,” Santos said. “It really wore me out to be constantly traveling and performing, but it allowed me to
see the world and understand it in its full diversity. This was a unique experience, and I carry its benefits with
me to this day.”
Through these experiences, Santos was able to become fluent in six languages. With these skills under
his belt, Santos worked with his wife, who is also fluent in four languages, to develop a small translation
business.
“Running it with no prior business experience was a challenging but exciting learning-by-doing
experience,” Santos said. “In addition, the translation industry experienced a massive digital transformation
in the last decade.”
This brought Santos to an MBA/M.S. program in business analytics and information management,
where he got rich experience, knowledge and perspectives in different industries. The program provided him
with something he clearly enjoys in life: variety. “It helped me take the most advantage of the translation
industry’s digital transformation. What I gained from the program is more than what I managed in the 15
years in Europe,” he added.
As Santos continues to grow his business, he’s also working as an advisor. “The world’s digital
transformation has advanced at high speed,” he said. “To me, it’s very exciting to be a valuable resource to
those who need help to jump on the digital express.”
24. What did Santos think of his career as a musician?
A. Stable but stressful. B. Demanding and fruitless.
C. Unique and enjoyable. D. Tiring but rewarding.
25. What drove Santos to take up the MBA/M.S. program?
A. His strong desire for a master’s degree. B. The challenge of starting a new business.
C. His lack of education background in business. D. The demand for a learning-by-doing experience.
26. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. The great variety Santos enjoys in life. B. The application of the digital transformation.
C. The benefits Santos got from the program. D. Santos’s viewpoint on the translation industry.
27. In which aspect does Santos probably offer help as an advisor?
A. Digital solutions. B. Business analyses.
C. Translation skills. D. Resources management.
C
To persist, life must reproduce. Scientists at the University of Vermont, Tufts University, and the Wyss
Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University have discovered an entirely new form
of biological reproduction and applied their discovery to create the first-ever, self-replicating(自我复制的)
living robots.
Named Xenobots after the African clawed frog from which scientists take their stem cells, the machines
are less than 0.04 inches wide—small enough to travel inside human bodies. They can walk and swim,
survive for weeks without food, and work together in groups. They even have regenerative capabilities; when
the scientists sliced into one robot, it healed by itself and kept moving.
The Xenobots could potentially be used toward a host of tasks. Xenobots could be used to clean up
radioactive waste and collect microplastics in the oceans. Some Xenobots had holes in their center, which
could potentially be used to transport drugs or medicines. “Traditional robots degrade(降解) over time and
can produce harmful ecological and health side effects,” researchers said in the study, which was published in
the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. As biological machines, Xenobots are more
environmentally friendly and safer for human health. Aside from these immediate practical tasks, Xenobots
could also help researchers to learn more about cell biology—opening the doors to future advancement in
human health and longevity.
While the prospect of self-replicating biotechnology could spark concern, the researchers said that the
living machines were entirely contained in a lab and easily destroyed, as they are biodegradable and
regulated by experts. “There are many things that are possible if we take advantage of this kind of
plasticity(可塑性) and ability of cells to solve problems,” said Joshua Bongard, one of the lead researchers at
the University of Vermont.
28．Which of the following best explains “regenerative” underlined in paragraph 2?
A. Fighting disease. B. Replacing old cells.
C. Recovering and growing again. D. Self-cleaning regularly.
29．What can we learn about Xenobots from paragraph 3?
A. They can be widely applied to curing diseases.
B. They are harmless to the environment by degrading plastics.
C. They are specially designed to collect radioactive waste.
D. They can serve well the research on human health.
30．What is Bongard’s attitude towards the self-replicating biotechnology?
A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Indifferent. D. Negative.
31．What does the text mainly talk about?
A. An application of a machine in medicine.
B. The invention of the first self-reproduction robots.
C. The trend of developing biotechnology.
D. An experiment on African clawed frogs.
D
Seagrass meadows(海草床) are wonder plants growing beneath the sea. They feed and shelter sea life
and are masterful at storing carbon. Thanks to the assistance of tiger sharks, a huge seagrass meadow in the
Bahamas Banks was recently discovered, offering the world a tool to fight climate change.
Seagrass has usually been detected by Earth-orbiting satellites that identify darker patches in the blue
water. In this study, tiger sharks were selected as research tools due to their highly consistent associations
with seagrass ecosystems. They spend 70% of their time in seagrass meadows. The team equipped eight tiger
sharks with satellite tags(跟踪器) , seven sharks with camera tags, and used a 360-degree camera on a shark
for the first time ever.
The data researchers collected was astonishing. The world’s largest seagrass ecosystem, measuring at
least 66,900 square kilometers, has been discovered. This reflects a 41% increase from previous estimates of
global seagrass. Seagrass can capture huge quantities of carbon by photosynthesis(光合作用) and store it on
the seafloor. In terms of climate change, this is excellent news; seagrass is 35 times faster at removing carbon
than tropical rain forests. When it comes to global seagrass carbon stock estimates, the study indicates that
seagrass in the Bahamas may contain 19.2% to 26.3% of all the carbon stored in seagrass meadows on Earth.
Yet seagrass meadows are rapidly disappearing, with over 92% of meadows in the UK gone, according
to the World Wildlife Fund. Scientists are collecting seeds and trying to grow new seagrass meadows
through restoration projects. This new discovery offers optimism and proves the importance of the ocean for
healing.
The sharks led us to the seagrass ecosystem in the Bahamas, which we now know is likely the most
significant blue carbon sink (蓝色碳汇) on the planet. What this discovery shows us is that ocean exploration
and research are essential for a healthy future. The untapped potential of the ocean is limitless. These
meadows can be protected and can be replicated(复制) , offering hope for climate change around the globe.
32. Why were tiger sharks chosen as research tools?
A. They have a strong connection with seagrass ecosystems.
B. They can quickly adjust themselves to the deep sea.
C. They can be easily equipped with experimental devices.
D. They are more flexible than other sea animals.
33. What are the numbers in paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The decline of global seagrass meadows.
B. The impact of climate change on sea life.
C. The rapid increase in the amount of carbon on Earth.
D. The potential value of the world’s largest seagrass ecosystem.
34. What are scientists doing to protect seagrass?
A. Developing new technology to collect seeds.
B. Planting more seagrass meadows.
C. Mapping the distribution of seagrass meadows.
D. Encouraging people to join in restoration projects.
35. Which could be the best title for the text?
A. The New Way of Removing Carbon
B. The Significance of Ocean Exploration
C. Tiger Sharks: Scientists’ Essential Helper to Study Climate
D. A New Discovery: World’s Largest Seagrass Meadow
