The study, published in Nature, shows that coastal sea levels are on average eight inches to a foot higher than many global maps and models suggest. The differences are especially large in Southeast Asia and Pacific nations. Scientists have often been working from the wrong starting point when calculating what land and populations might be affected in the future.

That matters as policymakers turn to science to understand how much land and how many people may be affected as the world warms and oceans rise. The new study has identified far-reaching problems in the method that researchers often use to understand coastlines and how they might change in a warming climate. It checked 385 other papers and found that less than 1 percent had correctly assessed where sea levels are today.

For decades, scientists have used a satellite-based gravitational-field model. However, other instruments can measure real sea level and reveal local differences from factors like currents, winds and tides, which can also influence sea levels but are not included in the gravitational-field model. Scientists can most accurately estimate sea level when both pieces of the puzzle are combined correctly.

But the study found that hasn’t been the case. Some 90 percent of the studies relied only on the gravitational-field method. Another 9 percent used both kinds of data but failed to combine them properly.

It was 10 years ago, on the shores of the Mekong delta in Southern Vietnam, where Dr. Minderhoud, the senior author of the paper, first realized there may be a difference. He said the study shows that methods of studying sea level rise that seemed to work relatively well for coastlines in Europe or the United States led to bigger gaps in other parts of the world.

Torbjorn Tornqvist, a professor at Tulane University who was not involved with the study, said the findings were a real “wake up call” with wide implications.

32. Why is the research finding of great importance?

A. It helps improve technologies of measuring sea levels.

B. It has persuaded scientists to change research methods.

C. It explains why sea levels keep rising around the world.

D. It offers policymakers more reliable scientific evidence.

33. What is the big problem with the commonly used method?

A. It relies on invalid data.

B. It leaves out real local factors.

C. It overestimates the risks.

D. It ignores the effect of global warming.

34. What can be inferred from Dr. Minderhoud’s experience in Vietnam?

A. Local observations are less reliable than satellite data.

B. Methods used in Europe may not apply well globally.

C. The Mekong delta is the most threatened coastal area.

D. Scientists need longer time to detect sea-level changes.

35. What is the best title of the text?

A. Sea Levels are Higher than Assumed

B. Climate Change Threatens Human Survival

C. Global Warming Causes Sea Level Rise

D. Satellite Data Improves Research Accuracy

One person’s trash is another’s treasure. At a recycling centre in north-east London, when a rabbit specimen (标本) arrived, Lisa Charlton knew she had to save it. She was so sure that Tracy, one of her regulars, would want it. 36

Charlton works at the centre’s onsite ReUse shop, and has saved a lot of rubbish from landfill (垃圾填埋场). The centre was built on an old sports field at Kings Road and opened in 1994. Charlton shows me around. It is a cold and rainy Friday morning. 37By 10:30 in the morning, the place is already very busy.

Throughout the day, I meet people getting rid of unwanted stuff: a couple throwing away woodwork and boxes, a woman dropping off pots of unused paint and another donating bird books. I meet production designer Alison Julian. The objects she finds will feature in TV, film, photo and video shoots. 38“I seldom leave with less stuff than I arrived with,” she says.

“This is the future,” says one of the waste management officers. “We live at a time when the climate is becoming crazier. In order to survive on this planet, we have to recycle.”

39North London Waste Authority chair Clyde Loakes wants a push towards reuse and repair as well. “For my father’s generation, reuse was something that they grew up with,” says Loakes. “My dad can still pretty much fix basic electrical items. 40“In the past 12 months, the NLWA has been running a program where residents can get household appliances fixed at a shop at a maximum discount of £50.

“It’s nice,” says Charlton, “not to see things go to waste when they’ve got so much more life in them.”

A. And she did.

B. That’s not a skill I’ve picked up.

C. But not everyone is in favor of recycling.

D. That hasn’t stopped people from coming, anyway.

E. I never thought a dead rabbit could make someone so happy.

F. Others believe that doing so will require more than recycling.

G. But today she is eyeing up a cast-iron log burner for her home.

In 1987, the Mogao Caves became a UNESCO World Heritage site. That same year, Neil Schmid, then 56undergraduate studying Chinese at Georgetown University, first visited the desert city of Dunhuang. He owes his lasting bond with the caves 57“yuanfen” — a special fondness.

Over thirty years later, in 2018, Schmid made history as the first full-time foreign researcher at the Dunhuang Academy. Since then, he has spent thousands of hours58(examine) the caves’ murals (壁画) and sculptures. Each visit, he says, 59(reveal) something new, deepening his appreciation of how these sacred spaces 60(design) to engage body, senses, and mind in acts of devotion and storytelling.

Schmid’s current research highlights Dunhuang as a test of cultural integration. In Cave 25, he identified a hand gesture 61(striking) similar to that in one of Leonardo da Vinci’s works, which was painted over five centuries 62(early). These discoveries show 63cultural exchange generates: new visual languages and devotional forms, making Dunhuang not just a crossroad but a site of innovation.

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。

Last week in biology class, the teacher had the students pair up to care for a plant or a small animal for a month. Alex and Sam became partners. They picked out a little hamster with soft brown fur and shiny black eyes. They named it Peanut and set up a cage for it on the bookshelf next to their desks.

They took turns feeding Peanut, cleaning the cage and giving it water. Alex liked watching Peanut run on the wheel in the cage. Sam liked holding it gently. Peanut soon became the class star. Everyone passing by would stop and say hi. Some even brought vegetable pieces and Peanut would eat them greedily.

One morning, it was Alex’s turn to clean the cage. He took Peanut out and set it on a chair while he cleaned the plastic base. When he finished and looked back, Peanut was gone. Alex’s heart sank. He got down on his hands and knees and searched under the desks, his face pale with worry. At that moment, Sam rushed over, face red, blaming Alex for being careless. Alex felt awful but also angry. “Hey, remember yesterday you left the cage door unlocked? So don’t just blame me.” Sam shook his head. “I didn’t lose him today — you did!” They said no more and searched under every chair, behind the bookshelf, and inside desks. But Peanut was nowhere to be seen. Then the bell rang. They had to stop. Sam walked back to his seat, head down. Alex stood there for a second, then did the same. The empty cage sitting on the bookshelf was like a wall standing between them, right in their hearts.

After school, without a word, they both stayed behind. They searched everywhere again but found nothing. Alex was about to give up when he heard a tiny scratching sound. It came from the corner near the bookshelf.

1. 续写词数应为150左右；

Immediately, Alex rushed to the bookshelf.

Picking Peanut up, Alex and Sam looked at each other, both with a guilty look.

读后续写（官方范文）

Immediately, Alex rushed to the bookshelf. Bending down, he gently moved aside the piled books one by one, his heart pounding with anxiety. There, curling in the narrow space behind the shelf, was Peanut, trembling faintly, its tiny paws still holding a piece of vegetable. Alex let out a long sigh of relief and gently scooped up the little creature into his palms, rubbing his face against its soft fur. At that moment, Sam hurried over, eyes wide with astonishment, and the tense atmosphere between them instantly melted away.

Picking Peanut up, Alex and Sam looked at each other, both with a guilty look. Alex was the first to break the silence, apologizing sincerely for his carelessness. Sam, his face flushed with shame, also apologized for losing his temper and blaming Alex without thinking twice. They carefully placed Peanut back in its cage and secured the door firmly. This small accident taught them a valuable lesson: staying calm and working together. Not only did they regain their lovely little pet, but they also learned to be more responsible and forgiving. Their friendship became deeper and more precious through this experience.
