23、The Australian environment department has not finalised a single recovery plan for threatened species in nearly 18 months. The last time the department completed a recovery plan was in June last year. And the department says it has no time frame for addressing the other requests for recovery plans, which include the critically endangered animal Leadbeater’s possum (澳洲负鼠).

Recovery plans are documents that outline key facts about endangered animals and plants, threats to their survival, and what should be done to prevent their extinction. Under national laws, it is the environment minister who decides whether a species requires a recovery plan. Once a plan is adopted, the minister cannot make any changes that might harm the plan. It has been previously reported that less than 40% of the listed threatened species have a recovery plan. A further 10% have been identified as requiring a recovery plan but those plans haven’t been developed.

The Australian Conservation Foundation said the exposure was “shocking” and accused the department of prioritizing the economic development over environmental protection. “The fact that iconic (最具代表性的) species like the possum still don’t have a recovery plan highlights how broken the system is,” James Trezise, a policy analyst at the Foundation, said. “It is a critical issue that the development and implementation of these plans seem to be optional. These plans should be developed, as required by law, and their implementation should be funded.”

Trezise said the significant delay in developing the plans stood “in sharp contrast” to the government’s rush to carry out environmental assessments for major projects like the one for the mining company Rio Tinto. “The department’s priorities are all wrong,” he said. “They can bring bills before the congress for mining projects that harm the environment, but they can’t get just one recovery plan for a threatened species completed.”

He said the delays would push more species closer to extinction. He called on the government to urgently address the issue and commit more resources to recovery planning. But for now, officials could not tell when the delays would be addressed, saying it would “take a very long time”. Emma Campbell, a senior official, said the department was working with an independent scientific committee to “reevaluate” which species should have a recovery plan.

【1】The underlined phrase “the exposure” (Line 1, Para 3) refers to ______________.

A．the coming extinction of many endangered animals

B．the lack of funding for the implementation of the plan

C．the denial of the critical situtaion facing some species

D．the government’s delay in developing recovery plans

【2】Which of the following is TRUE about recovery plans?

A．They can be changed as the environment minister likes.

B．They can help prevent endangered animals from going extinct.

C．They document how endangered animals interact with humans.

D．They cover more than half of the threatened species.

【3】What can be inferred from the passage?

A．The government has not done enough about the recovery plans.

B．The endangered animal possum will be extinct in 18 months.

C．The government prioritizes Rio Tinto over mining projects.

D．The independent committee is vital to addressing the issue.

【4】What might be the best title of the passage?

A．Environment department accepting bribes

B．Endangered animal protection with no funding

C．Threatened species at risk with no recovery plans

D．Government forming tense relationship with the public

24、   China’s Ministry of Water Resources and the National Development and Reform Commission announced the official full completion of its construction, saying the Three Gorges project has met all design requirements, has a good overall performance, and fulfills the key roles of flood control, electricity generation, shipping and water-resource utilization (利用).

By the end of August, the dam had held back 180 billion cubic meters of water during flood seasons. It saw inflows of over 70,000 cubic meters per second in 2010, 2012 and 2020 and reduced flood peaks by about 40 percent, the review said, greatly easing flood-control pressure in downstream rice-growing areas.

During dry seasons, discharges have been raised to more than 5,500 cubic meters per second, providing more than 20 billion cubic meters of water a year for the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. By the end of August, the reservoir had provided replenishment (补水) for 2,267 days, with a total water supply of 289.4 billion cubic meters, improving production, living conditions and the ecology of the river’s middle and lower reaches, the review said.

The world’s largest hydropower station, the dam had generated over 1.35 trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity by August, contributing to electricity supply in Central and East China and in Guangdong province. The project has also significantly improved navigation (航运) conditions and strengthened shipping capacity in the Yangtze. By August, some 1.48 billion tons of cargo had passed through the Three Gorges Dam, boosting development in the Yangtze’s economic belt. The production and living environments of the 1.31 million people who were relocated to make way for the Three Gorges project have been greatly improved, and the basic facilities and public service facilities in the reservoir area have developed rapidly, it said.

D．1.31 million people have lost their homes to make way for the dam.
