28、ers in recent decades, but its four in particular-bighead, black, grass and silver-that worry ecologists, biologists, fishers and policymakers alike. Introduced in the southeast to help control weeds and parasites in aquaculture (水产养殖 ) operations, these fish soon spread up the Mississippi River sys
29、tem where they have been crowding out native fish populations not used to competing with such aggressive invaders. The carps presence in such numbers is also harming water quality and killing off sensitive species. Asian carp are strong to jump over barriers such as low dams. They lay hundreds of th
30、ousands of eggs at a time and spread into new habitat quickly and easily. Also, flooding has helped the fish expand into previously unattainable water bodies. And fishers using young carp as live bait have also helped the fishs spread, as they have boats going through locks up and down the Mississip
31、pi. The federal government considers the Asian carps to be annoying species and encourages and supports “active control” by natural resources management agencies. Federal and state governments have spent millions in tax dollars to prevent the carp from making their way into the Great Lakes, but an u
32、nderwater electric fence constructed to keep them out has not worked as well as hoped, and policymakers are reviewing other options now. In the meantime, state and federal agencies are monitoring the Mississippi and its branches for Asian carp and testing various barrier technologies to prevent thei
33、r further spread. For instance, the National Park Service is cooperating with the state of Minnesotas Department of Natural Resources to construct new dams that are high enough to prevent Asian carp from jumping over. The Asian Carp Regional Coordinating Committee has funded DNA monitoring in potent
34、ially affected water bodies whereby researchers can determine whether the troublesome fish are present just by the biological footprints they leave behind. Individuals can do their part by not transporting fish, bait or even water from one water body to another, and by emptying and washing boats bef
35、ore moving them between different water bodies. 【小题 1】 Asian carp have been introduced to the USA in order to _. A improve water quality B help sensitive species C control the number of native fishes D control the ecosystem in aquaculture 【小题 2】 The measure to keep Asian carp out of the Great Lake b
36、ut proved not good is _. A testing various barrier technologies B construction of an underwater electric fence C Emptying and washing boats before using them. D monitoring the Mississippi and its branches for Asian carp 【小题 3】 It is suggested from the passage that _. A aquaculture operations are dan
37、gerous to the water bodies B scientific technology is useless in preventing Asian carp spreading C both the state and the individuals can make efforts to keep out Asian carp D Asian carp have successfully invaded the Mississippi and the Great Lakes 答案： 【小题 1】 D 【小题 2】 B 【小题 3】 C 文章大意：为控制水产养殖的杂草和寄生虫，
38、亚洲鲤鱼被引进到美国，结果引发了一场生物灾难。密西西比河水生物已崩溃，为防止它们进入五大湖，美国政府决定立即采取行动。 【小题 1】 D 细节理解题。由第一段第二句话 “Introduced in the southeast to help control weeds and parasites in aquaculture (水产养殖 ) operations.”可知，引进亚洲鲤鱼的目的是控制水产养殖的杂草和寄生虫。 【小题 2】 B 细节理解题。由第三段最后一句话 “Federal and state governments have spent millions in tax dolla
39、rs to prevent the carp from making their way into the Great Lakes, but an underwater electric fence constructed to keep them out has not worked as well as hoped, and policymakers are reviewing other options now.”可知。 【小题 3】 C 推理判断题。由最后一段可知，各州政府和个人都在努力赶走亚洲鲤鱼。 In her new book, “The Smartest Kids in the
40、 World”， Amanda Ripley, an investigative journalist, tells the story of Tom, a high-school student from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, who decides to spend his senior year in Wroclaw, Poland. Poland is a surprising educational success story: in the past decade, the country raised students test scores fro
41、m significantly below average to well above it. Polish kids have now outscored American kids in math and science, even though Poland spends, on average, less than half as much per student as the United States does. One of the most striking differences between the high school Tom attended in Gettysbu
42、rg and the one he ends up at in Wroclaw is that the latter has no football team or teams of any kind. That American high schools spend more time and money on sports than on math is an old complaint. In December, when the latest Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) results are announce
43、d, its safe to predict that American high-school students will once again show their limited skills in math and reading, outscored not just by students in Poland but also by students in places like China, Finland, Singapore, and Japan. Meanwhile, they will have played some very exciting football gam
44、es, which will have been breathlessly written up in their hometown papers. Why does this situation continue Well, for one thing, kids like it. And for another, according to Ripley, parents seem to like the arrangement, too. She describes a tour she took of a school in Washington D C., which costs th
45、irty thousand dollars a year. The tour leader - a mother with three children in the school - was asked about the schools flaws (瑕疵 ). When she said that the math program was weak, none of the parents taking the tour reacted. When she said that the football program was weak, the parents suddenly beca
46、me concerned. “Really？ ” one of them asked worriedly, “What do you mean？ ” One of the ironies of the situation is that sports show what is possible. American kids performance on the field shows just how well they can do when expectations are high. Its too bad that their_test_scores_show_the_same_thi
47、ng._ 【小题 1】 Tom decides to spend his senior year in Poland because _. A he intends to improve his scores B Polish kids are better at learning C sports are not supported at schools in Gettysburg D he wants to be the smartest kid in the world 【小题 2】 According to Paragraph 2, we know that _. A PISA pla
48、ys a very important role in America B little time is spent on sports in Japanese schools C American students do better in both math and sports D too much importance is placed on sports in America 【小题 3】 The underlined sentence in the last paragraph means _. A low expectations result in American students poor PISA performance B high expectations push up American students academic performance C American students academic performance worries their parents a lot D lacking practice contributes to American students average performance 【小题 4】 The purp
