Every year a community in some part of the world is destroyed by flooding. Indeed,

flooding can happen anywhere it rains.There is hope, however. Architects and civil engineers

have developed promising technologies for flood control. And yes, engineering can be beautiful.

The Thames Barrier in England

The Thames Barrier is the second largest flood defence barrier in the world. Made of

steel, water gates on the Thames Barrier are normally left open so ships can pass through. Then,

as needed, the water gates shut to stop water flowing through and to keep the Thames River safe.

The Thames Barrier has 10 steel gates. The main gates stand as high as a 5-storey building.

Each main gate weighs 3,300 tonnes. The Thames Barrier gates were constructed between 1974

and 1984 and have been closed to prevent floods more than 100 times.

Red Sluice Gate in Japan

To protect areas on the coast and along Japan’s rapidly-flowing rivers, the nation’s

engineers have developed a complex system of canals and flood-gate locks(水闸). Red Sluice

Gate was designed in 1924 by a Japanese architect who also worked on the Panama Canal. It is

aren’t affected by power failures that can occur during storms. It contributed greatly to

preventing floods until 1982 when a new sluice gate was completed. The Red Sluice Gate was

no longer used but remains an impressive sight.

The Hagestein Weir in the Netherlands

Completed in about 1960, the Hagestein Weir is one of three movable dams, along the

Rhine River in the Netherlands. The Hagestein Weir has two enormous arched gates to control

water and generate power. Spanning 54 meters, the gates are stored in the up position. Dams

and water barriers like Hagestein Weir have become models for water control engineers around

the world.

MOSE in Venice

With its famous canals, Venice, Italy is a well-known watery city. Global warming

threatens its very existence. Since the 1980s, officials have been pouring money into the MOSE

project, a series of 78 barriers that can rise collectively or independently across the lagoon

opening and curtail the rising waters of the Adriatic Sea.

21. What do we know about the Thames Barrier?

A. It is the largest water barrier in the world.

B. Its water gates are open at a normal time.

C. It took more than 10 years to construct.

D. Its ten water gates weigh 3,300 tonnes.

22. What is a special feature of Red Sluice Gate in Japan?

A. It is still in operation.

B. It still works with power cut.

C. It is the most impressive sight.

D. It was designed by an architect from Panama.

23. What is common function of the 4 constructions?

A. To produce electricity. B. To advance technology.

C. To promote tourism. D. To control flood.

Norwood, a junior High School student, was driving three friends home in St. Petersburg,

when another driver crashed into her from her left and made her car hit the tree. The impact

jammed shut the driver’s side door, so Norwood climbed out the front window. Two of her

friends managed to get out of the car unharmed, but her 16-year-old friend Zarria didn’t. She

run back to the car only to find Zarria was just sitting there reactionless.

A lot of people started to gather around to see what was happening. Norwood started

yelling, “Back up, back up, she needs space.” Norwood pulled Zarria out of the back seat,

avoiding broken glass from the window. “That’s when I checked her pulse on her neck. I put

my head against her chest, and I didn’t really hear nothing. So that’s when I just started doing

CPR on her.” Norwood told the reporter. After the 30 compressions and two rescue breaths,

Zarria regained consciousness. Ambulance quickly arrived and rushed her to the hospital to

receive medical help.

When Miller, Norwood’s high school teacher, learned that Norwood saved a friend just

one day after completing CPR training, she was at a loss of words and so proud. Norwood

participates in the school’s Athletic Lifestyle Management Academy (ALMA). The program

prepares students for various careers in health science. “We do vital signs and they learn how to

take blood pressure and check pulse.” Miller introduced. And another one of the skills learned is

CPR. “There are two components, a hands-on skills component where they have to demonstrate

that they’re able to do CPR well, and then there’s a written test component, showing that they

remember that knowledge.”

Thanks to Norwood’s quick thinking, Zarria is recovering well. She also isn’t surprised by

her friend’s actions. “She will always help any way she can, so I wasn’t really shocked about

that.”

24. What happened to Norwood and her friends on their way home?

A. They lost their way. B. They suffered a car accident.

C. They crashed into another car. D. They were stuck in a traffic jam.

25. What did Norwood do first when finding Zarria reactionless?

A. To give her first aid. B. To ask people for help.

C. To call ambulance at once. D. To send her to hospital immediately.

26. What can we infer about the ALMA?

A. It normally lasts for one day.

B. It is for medical students only.

C. It focuses on both theory and practice.

D. It trains students to live a healthy lifestyle.

27. Which of the following can best describe Norwood?

A. Considerate and flexible. B. Kind and ambitious.

C. Hardworking and clever. D. Brave and calm.

Masks that helped save lives during the coronavirus pandemic are proving a deadly threat

for wildlife.

Macaques (猕猴) have been spotted chewing the straps off old and tossed-aside masks in the

hills outside Malaysia’s capital Kuala Lumpur — a potential choking threat for the diminutive

monkeys. And in an incident that captured headlines in Britain, a gull (海鸥) was rescued by the

RSPCA in the city of Chelmsford after its legs became tangled ( 缠绕 ) in the straps of a

disposable(一次性的) mask for up to a week. The animal welfare charity was alerted after the

bird was spotted, motionless but still alive, and they took it to a wildlife hospital for treatment

before its release.

The biggest impact may be in the water, with green groups alarmed at the flood of used

masks, latex（乳胶） gloves and other protective gear finding their way into already polluted

seas and rivers. Conservationists in Brazil found one inside the stomach of a penguin after its

body washed up on a beach, while a dead pufferfish was discovered caught inside another off

the coast of Miami.
