He enjoys the excitement of surfing（冲浪）. And besides, he likes riding his skateboard.Carson is very hard-working, only a 12-year-old boy. He just completed seventh grade. And, school wasclosely connected with the creation of his company. His story is proof that necessity is truly the mother of4.A team of scientists says that playing sounds underwater can get fish to return to areas with severely damaged coral reefs. In an experiment, they found fish returned after hearing recordings of the sounds of a healthy ocean reef.The scientists placed underwater speakers in areas where coral had been dying in Australia's northern Great Barrier Reef. They played the sounds over a period of about six weeks in 2017 and studied the results. The team reported that twice as many fish arrived in areas where the sounds of healthy coral were played. The sounds also led to a 50 percent increase in the number of species present in the area, the researchers found. Among the arriving fish were species that feed on all major food sources.Different species of fish perform many activities that support the ocean environment and sea life. "Damaged reefs have a higher chance of recovery if they have healthy fish populations," the scientists wrote in the report. Healthy coral reefs are remarkably noisy places. They contain the sounds of many kinds of shrimp, fish and other sea creatures. Young fish listen for these sounds when they are looking for a place to settle.Reefs "become ghostly quiet" when they suffer destruction that is usually related to human-caused pollution. Coral damage can cause unappealing smells and sounds that drive shrimp and fish away. But the experiment suggested that the use of underwater loudspeakers was an effective way to get young fish to come back. The return of these fish is the first step to seeing major improvements in reef health. Recovery is supported by fish that clean the reef and create space for corals to regrow. The underwater sounds are a promising way to fight coral reef damage at the local community level. But other threats need to be reduced as well. These include climate change, pollution and overfishing.（1）The final purpose of putting sounds speaker systems underwater is to ________.A.catch more fishB.attract more speciesC.help damaged coralD.cause more fish to return（2）What can we learn from the text?A.Healthy sea life contributes to the ocean environment.B.Healthy corals depend on a variety of sea species.C.Coral reefs become noisy when they suffer pollution.D.Coral damage is caused by unappealing smells and sounds.（3）What's the best title of this passage?e Sounds to Call Fish Back to CoralB.Find Ways to Recover Sea Ecological BalanceC.Coral Reef Damage, Human's ErrorD.Coral Reef Needs Peaceful Environment（4）Where is the passage most likely from?A.A researcher's diary.B.A geographic guidebook.C.An academic report.D.A technological magazine.D.The time management.（2）What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A.Ways to find the precise entry angle.B.Consequences of wrong entry degree.C.Factors to survive "the seven minutes".D.Reasons for the necessity of speed reducing.（3）What does "it" refer to in paragraph 4?A.The spot.B.The area.C.The system.D.The surface.（4）What can be inferred from Lori Glaze's words?A.Instruments aboard the rover are not quite reliable.B.Perseverance is able to collect enough evidence needed.C.Man still has a long way to go to prove life was on Mars.D.Samples of Mars will be returned soon to our labs on the earth.三、书面表达（本题共计 2 小题，每题 5 分，共计10分）6. 假设你是红星中学高三（1）班的学生李华，你校正在招募志愿者，为春节期间中外学生交流活动做准备。
