21、The immense and forbidding Southern Ocean is famous for howling winds and strange waves that have tested mariners for centuries.
But its true strength lies beneath the waves.
The ocean’s dominant feature, extending up to two miles deep and as much as 1.200 miles wide, is the Antarctic Circumpolar (极地附近的) Current, by far the largest current in the world.
It is the world’s climate engine, and it has kept the world from warming even more by drawing deep water from the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans, much of which has been in the deep ocean for hundreds of years, and pulling it to the surface. There, it exchanges heat and carbon dioxide with the atmosphere before being pushed again on its endless round trip.
Without this action, which scientists call upwelling, the world would be even hotter than it has become as a result of human-caused emissions of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases. “From no perspective is there any place more important than the Southern Ocean,” said Joellen L. Russell, an oceanographer at the University of Arizona. “There’s nothing like it on Planet Earth.”
For centuries this ocean was largely unknown, and its conditions were so extreme that only a relative handful of sailors went to its waters with lots of icebergs.
What fragmentary scientific knowledge was available came from measurements taken by explorers, naval ships, the occasional research expeditions or whaling ships.
But more recently, a new generation of floating, autonomous probes (探测仪) that can collect temperature, density and other data for years—diving deep underwater, and even exploring beneath the Antarctic sea ice, before rising to the surface to phone home—has enabled scientists to learn much more. They have discovered that global warming is affecting the Antarctic current in complex ways, and these shifts could complicate the ability to fight climate change in the future.
【1】Why docs the true strength lie beneath the waves in the Southern Ocean?
A.There is the deepest current in the world.
B.There is the world’s largest current.
C.There is severe cold climate in the South Pole.
D.There are the strongest winds and strangest waves.
【2】How docs the Southern Ocean keep the world from warming even more?
A.By pushing severe cold water to the other oceans.
B.By cooling the warmer water from the other oceans.
C.By drawing cold water from other oceans and pulling it to the surface.
D.By keeping cold water in the other oceans for hundreds of years.
【3】What does the underlined word "fragmentary" mean in paragraph 7?
A.Advanced.
B.Abstract.
C.Incomplete.
D.Concrete.
【4】What do scientists discover according to the last paragraph?
A.The current there is in normal condition despite global warming.
B.The current there is under the complicated influence of global warming.
C.The autonomous probes have found solutions to global warming.
D.Nothing can be done for global warming due to severe cold climate.
22、We all want to do our part in reducing waste and improving the well-being of our planet. And it does require some mindfulness and effort. Below are ways to reduce waste in and out of the home.
Prepare now, eat later.
Preparing food in advance can save money and reduce waste. Spending a few hours at the beginning of the week can really make your week run smoother because each day your food is already ready to go. Also, by preparing meals in advance, we’re better able to use all the groceries we’ve bought without leaving them so long in the fridge that they go bad.
Use a reusable water bottle.
Using a reusable water bottle can cut down on plastic consumption (消耗). A reusable water bottle can also help keep you properly hydrated (补充水分) because you’ll have it on hand.
Reusable food containers are your friend.
Using reusable food containers will pair nicely with preparing food in advance. These containers can be used and washed over and over again so you won’t need to buy additional options.
Order small portions (份额) when eating out.
Starting small when eating out is a great way to prevent food waste! We understand that eating out is enjoyable, and this way ensures that you only order what you’ll eat. Also, you’re always able to order more if you’re still hungry. If you do happen to order too much, box it up and take it home for later.
One or two of these tips can help reduce the amount of resources and food that go to waste in your daily life. Every step is positive for the planet.
【1】What can help you reduce food waste in the text?
A.Cooking at home.
B.Preparing food in advance.

It can cause the affected person to suffer greatly and function poorly at work, at school and in the family. 【3】 , looked at 15 studies involving over 190,000 people to determine how much exercise was needed to reduce depression. Adults who did activities equivalent to 1.25 hours of brisk walking per week had an 18% lower risk of depression compared with those who did not exercise, the study said. Moving up to an "activity volume equivalent to 2.5 hours of brisk walking per week was associated with 25% lower risk of depression," the study authors said. The benefits were strongest when a person transitioned from being a couch potato to adding movement to the day, the study said. 【4】 . "Our findings therefore have important new implications for health practitioners making lifestyle recommendations . 【5】 ," the authors wrote.

26、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jose was a devoted teacher for a local high school in California. Unfortunately, with the money he earned, he couldn’t support his family and extended family in Mexico and rent an apartment in California at the same time. Therefore, having failed to afford the rental of even a shoebox apartment, he had no choice but to live in his old car occasionally to make ends meet until he could find another place to live.
To make matters worse, he found himself living this unfortunate lifestyle after Covid-19 swept the world when California schools closed their doors following the outbreak. This left Jose with little means for making money. So at age 77, Jose ended up living inside of his car. For about two years he was homeless. Home was his car, and his car sat in a grocery store parking lot. During daytime he drove to different locations, looking for job opportunities while he spent most of his nights at the same parking lot, which gave him a sense of belonging.
At day time, he would lean his seat all the way back, so no one would see him because he knew he wasn’t supposed to be there and worried the manager of the grocery store would drive him away. He was a man of self-respect and didn’t want to turn to charity.
When Maggie, the manager of the grocery store did see Jose, she felt he looked familiar because she used to be in his class many years ago. She could still remember how Jose encouraged her to finish her education when she was struggling with her learning. She noticed Jose spent a considerable amount of time in his car, she suspected her teacher had fallen on hard times. She became determined to help her former teacher in his time of need. So, the former student decided to repay the favor and help her homeless teacher.
