Like many of the Indigenous （土著的） communities across the Australian continent, the
remote communities in north-west New South Wales are struggling. Many of the 300 or so residents
rely on welfare. Higher electricity bills—up to $3, 000 a quarter for some households-further worsen
the poverty. They're always at the end of the power line, so the service that is there is quite
extraordinary in terms of cost. It's a real problem that needs to be fixed.
To that end, Anderson and other Indigenous leaders have formed the First Nations Renewable
Energy Alliance （FREA） to push for renewable energy in Indigenous communities. They partner
with private enterprise to support Indigenous communities looking to switch to renewable energy.
Page 4 of 13
We can build a power station where the community exists, Anderson says, so people are able
to successfully live in the environment the way they want to live and have access to power which
enables them to better determine their economic future.
Only a handful of Indigenous communities have set up renewable energy projects in Australia.
The Indigenous-owned and -operated company AllGrid Energy, for instance, has installed solar
panels and battery storage systems to replace diesel（柴油） generators in the communities of
Ngurrara and Kurnturlpara in the Northern Territory's Barkly Tableland. Within two months of the
system being installed in May 2016, people were moving back to their homelands, the communities
growing from just two permanent residents to about 40.
But FREA will go one step further, working with community leaders and acting as a conduit （
纽带） between the communities and the businesses they are dealing with. This is essential, says
Anderson, to avoid predatory （吞并） practices they have seen in the past, with companies playing
on the psychology of poverty to gain advantage. The FREA has drafted terms of agreements that
will guide how companies engage with Indigenous communities for renewable energy projects.
One of the next steps for FREA will be to identify a community that can act as a test case for a
renewables project Our experience is that if we can make it work for one community, it will work
in every other community, Anderson says.
24. What is FREA expected to do for the remote Indigenous communities?
A. Increase power supply to them. B. Help them return to their homelands.
C. Shake them off poverty. D. Reduce their higher power costs.
25. What does the author indicate by mentioning AllGrid Energy?
A. Renewables projects are inaccessible.
B. Renewables projects are quite workable.
C. Renewables projects can increase locals' income.
D. Renewables projects can coexist with diesel power plants.
26. What's paragraph 5 mainly about concerning FREA?
A. Its strategies to win over the businesses.
B. Its cooperation with community leaders.
C. Its potential conflict with energy companies.
D. Its innovation in directing renewables projects.

27. What's FREA going to do next?
A. Consult the experts. B. Select a piloting community.
C. Collect sufficient construction fund. D. Make renewables projects available to all.

The science of why insects gather around lights at night has never been nailed down. Popular
theories propose that moths and other insects navigate （导航） by the moon and mistake lamps for
moonlight, or that the insects fly towards light to escape coming danger. Now researchers believe
they have a more convincing answer: contrary to current theories, insects are not attracted to light
from far away, but become trapped if they fly close to an artificial light source.
According to Dr Sam Fabian, study co-author and Imperial College London entomologist, moths
and many other insects that fly at night evolved to tilt （倾斜） their backs to wherever is brightest.
For hundreds of millions of years, this was the sky rather than the ground. The trick told insects which
way was up and ensured they flew level. But then came artificial lighting. Moths found themselves
tilting their backs to street lamps. This caused them to circle around the lamps endlessly, the insects
trapped by their evolution.
Fabian and his colleagues filmed insect flight paths around lights in the lab. The videos reveal
that time and again, moths and dragonflies turned their backs to artificial lights, which appeared to
greatly change their flight paths. If the light is above them, they might start orbiting it, but if it's
behind them, they start tilting backwards and end up flying in circles or diving toward the ground.
Researchers have long warned that light pollution is a big driving force in the dramatic decline
in insect populations. Moths and other insects that become trapped around lamps become easily
caught by bats. The artificial lighting can also fool them into thinking it is daytime, causing them to
bed down and skip a night's feeding.
There are, Fabian believes, helpful lessons from the research. What this tells us is that the
direction of artificial light matters. Could we change lighting environments to not trap insects? For
we're facing a massive decline in insects around the world, and artificial light at night is one of the
factors that could potentially be leading to this decline, Fabian said.
28. What do the underlined words nailed down in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Popularized widely. B. Discussed openly.
C. Defined accurately. D. Explored academically.
Page 6 of 13
29. Fabian's study found that moths circle around the lamps endlessly because ______.
A. they can't keep their balance.
B. they use improper flight attitude.
C. they lose track of which way is up.
D. they are attracted to lights from far away.
30. What is the significance of the research finding?
A. It may lead to better conservation of insects.
B. Natural enemies of insects will be got rid of.
C. Artificial lighting will be greatly reduced at night.
D. It may raise concerns for insects' eating behavior.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. Why insects lose their ability to fly at night.
B. Why artificial light and evolution trap insects.
C. How artificial light impacts insect populations.
D. How insects evolved distinct strategies of flight.

I'm a layperson with a love of science who occasionally reads science magazines. My approach
was from an author's angle, spending months on research before writing a single word for Pig Heart
Boy.
So where did I get the idea? Whenever I attend a school event, that question is asked. The answer
is simple. Back in the mid 1990s, I read a newspaper article written by a doctor who guessed that we
would eventually have to turn to xenotransplantation （异种器官移植）as a possible solution to the
lack of human organ donors. It left my mind filled with questions. What are the consequences? Do
we really have the right to treat animals as mere organ sources for humans? So I headed to my nearest
bookshop and bought all the books I could on heart transplants in particular.
I've found questions are one of the best places to start from when writing a novel. In my story
Cameron, who needs a heart transplant, knows he is unlikely to see his next birthday unless he
receives one, but he is a long way down the waiting list. When a genetically modified（GM）pig's
heart is offered by a pioneering doctor, Cameron decides to go for it -and his new heart completely
changes his life in unexpected ways.
Page 7 of 13
Now some people think that the subject matter is not suitable for children, criticizing the cruel
and inhuman ways of xenotransplantation. I completely disagree. As a children's author, it never
ceases to amaze me how some adults underestimate what subject matter will interest and stimulate
children. I wanted to write a story that provided no right or wrong answers, a story that would allow
the reader to walk in Cameron's shoes for a while and think about what decisions they would make
and how they would react if they too were faced with his situation.
Fictional stories that explore new ideas when it comes to STEM （ science, technology,
engineering and mathematics）subjects also have a part to play in enriching our children's reading
and learning. Various studies have shown that reading fiction enhances our children's ability to grasp
new concepts. Pig Heart Boy was my attempt to incorporate science possible into a believable,
thought-provoking （令人深思的） story.
32. Where did the author get inspiration from to write Pig Heart Boy?
A. A school event. B. A news item.
C. Science magazines. D. Books on heart transplants.
33. What might be a major concern of those who disagree with Pig Heart Boy?
A. Animal rights. B. GM technology.
C. Organ transplant risks. D. Organ shortage crisis.
34. What are the last two paragraphs of the text mainly about?
A. Ways of tapping children's intelligence.
B. Potential application of fictional stories.
C. Supporting evidence for justifying the book.
D. Influence of fictional stories on STEM subjects.
35. What is Pig Heart Boy?
A. An author profile. B. A science fiction novel.
C. A guidebook to xenotransplantation. D. An essay on writing children's literature.

As a first-generation Asian immigrant （移民） who had grown up in poverty, I knew I was
beyond 41 to be admitted into Harvard. I loved books, but it never crossed my mind to become
a（n） 42 of any sort. I didn't 43 to have unrealistic dreams.
Still, something 44 me. My deskmate had 45 our friendship recently. There wasn't a

and from that moment on, it was all I 50 to do. So I changed my field of study to English. I 51

believed that immigrants couldn't afford to be 54 , I understood then that we had always been the
ultimate artists, 55 ourselves again and again as we try to adapt to a new landscape.
