visitors1 1recently.So many are the hermit crabs（寄居蟹）flooding into the otherwise empty beaches ofKoh Lanta that shells（贝壳）for them to live in have become in short supply.The Thai government moved quickly to ease the housing shortagejaunching a public appealfor empty shells that netted over 200 kg.On December 5 these were distributed around the parkin a ceremony.Hermit crabs rely on shells to protect their soft bodies,moving to larger shells as they grow.OnKoh Lanta and the surrounding smaller islands,their rapid increase seems to be a naturalphenomenon,rather than directly related to the absence of tourists.But the shortage of shellsmay be man-made：pretty ones have long been gathered to be sold as goods.Crabs had begunto make do with potential death-traps such as plastic caps and bottles.The shell drive was part of a government initiative to regain the balance of nature.UI haveinstructed all national parks to do whatever it takes,says Varawut Silpa-archa,the minister fornatural resources.His inspiration comes from the pause in tourism brought on by COVID-19.A ban on international visitors and the closure of national parks have helped naturerecover,bringing endangered leatherback turtles back onto Thai beaches.In the coastalprovinces of Phang Nga and Phuket,turtles have laid the largest number of eggs for 20 years.The government has decided to try to copy the short break forced on it by COVID-19 in future.From now on,all national parks will be required to close for a short period during the off-seasonand to limit the number of tourists through a reservation system when they are open.Althoughsuch restrictions mean reduced earnings from tourism in the short term,in the longer run moreparks may help to keep the tourists coming.8.What happened to the beaches of Koh Lanta recently?A.They got flooded by seawater.B.They became completely empty.C.They were packed with hermit crabs.D.They saw a constant stream of tourists.9.What contributed to the housing shortage for hermit crabs?A.Natural disasters.B.Human activities.C.Their preference for bottles.D.The governments involvement.10.Why are turtles mentioned in paragraph 4?A.To warn turtles are dying out.B.To prove beaches are their ideal habitats.C.To stress ecological diversity of Thailand.D.To illustrate the birth of Varawuts inspiration.11.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Developing Economy or Protecting Animals?B.Closing National Parks or Drawing More Visitors?C.Governments are Responsible for the Balance of NatureD.Authorities Help to Find Shelters for Homeless Hermit CrabsDIf Mars were the popular kid in school,Venus（金星）would be the unwelcome one sitting in thecorner,largely ignored.Venus has nearly the same mass and size as Earth,but being closer to第4 页，共 22页the sun,it gets nearly twice as much heat from the sun.However,instead of having a climate that is just a warmer version of Earths,Venus*s surfaceand atmosphere are unbearable：clouds of sulphuric acid blanket the planet,while at groundlevel,it is hot enough to melt lead.Despite this,there is now a sign that Venus may harbour life.Jane Greaves at Cardiff University,UK,and her colleagues recently detected phosphine（磷化氢）in Venus*s atmosphere,with one potential explanation that it is the by-product of biology.That is because the only way this gas is made on Earth is in laboratories or by microbes（微生物）.Though this doesnt mean it was produced by life on Venus,attempts to find non-biologicalexplanations for its presence have so far failed.Our best way of confirming or rejecting the possibility of life on Venus is to go and have aproper look.While Mars has been the focus of interplanetary exploration efforts lately,thephosphine discovery lets people look at Venus in a new light.As NASA administrator JimBridenstine tweeted：Its time to prioritize Venus.In the months and years to come,computer simulations will be used to further study the possiblechemistries of the atmosphere on Venus.More laboratory experiments will be conducted to tryto identify other ways the phosphine there could be produced.However,there is no guaranteethat these efforts will reveal the true nature of this substance on Venus.A newly-proposedstrategy is to directly sample the atmosphere and surface of Venus.By doing so,we would beable to take direct measurements of phosphine.The discovery of phosphine in Venuss atmosphere is a great accomplishment.The scientificefforts may be just what we need to finally refocus on this neglected world.Possibly,the quietkid in the corner may get the last laugh.12.In theory,whats Venus expected to be like?A.It is almost as large as Earth.B.It has nearly the same mass as Earth.C.It has a warmer Earth-like climate.D.It has the unbearable surface and atmosphere.13.What can the discovery of phosphine on Venus indicate?A.There might exist signs of life.B.This kind of gas is very common.C.Many products can be made with it.D.Experiments were once conducted there.14.What is paragraph 5 mainly about?A.The importance of observations.B.The power of computer simulations.C.The approaches to exploring phosphine.D.The necessity to analyse phosphine.15.Which can best describe the authors attitude to the exploration of Venus?A.Casual.B.Supportive.C.Cautious.D.Doubtful.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5 小题，共 12.5分)Psychologists have long believed that human
