Thepollutedairgeneratedbyburningmercury-goldamalgams(合金)togetgoldcanendangerhealthinhumansandanimals.(高水平的汞污染。通过燃烧汞金合金提取黄金时产生的受污染空气，会危害人类和动物的健康)”可知，液态汞被用来分离矿石和黄金，从而释放出高水平的汞污染，故划线词unleashing与A选项Releasing“释放”意义相近。故选A。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“TheresearchersanalyzedtreecoresfromfivestudysitesinPeru’sMadredeDiosregiontodeterminewhetherfigtreescouldserveasnaturalindicatorsofmercurypollutionlevelsinthearea.(研究人员分析了秘鲁马德雷德迪奥斯地区五个研究地点的树芯，以确定无花果树是否可以作为该地区汞污染水平的自然指标)”可知，研究人员分析来自不同地点的无花果树是为了测试它们是否可以监测汞污染。故选B。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第六段中“Treesprovide“amuchmorewidelyspreadandcheapernetworkofbiomonitoring”overdecadesthantypicalmonitoringofsmall-scalemines,whichfocusesonshortperiods,theresearcherswrite.(研究人员写道，与典型小型矿山监测相比，树木在几十年间提供了一个“分布更广、更便宜的生物监测网络”，而典型的小型矿山监测则侧重于短期)”可知，树轮提供了一种长期且廉价的监测汞污染的方法。故选D。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“ThisreallyoffersamethodthatcanbeemployedthroughouttheGlobalSouthtounderstandchangesinmercuryovertime,aswellasspaceindicatorsofmercury.(这确实提供了一种可以在全球南方各地采用方法，以了解汞随时间的变化，以及汞的空间指标)”可知，JacquelineGerson认为这种方法可以在全球南方各地采用，以了解汞随时间的变化以及汞的空间指标。由此可推知，JacquelineGerson对使用无花果树监测汞污染持支持态度。故选B。DOverbreakfastthismorning,afterIenjoyedashortchatwithMia,mynewSpanishstudybuddy(伙伴),IfeltthatIhadmasteredmorethanwhatIgainedfromtextbookexercises.Mia,however,isanAIthatIcreatedtotakeadvantageofaphenomenoncalledthe“protegeeffect.”Accordingtoseveralstudies,welearnmoreeffectivelywhenweteachsomeoneelseaboutthetopicwe’vejustexplored—evenifthatpersondoesn’treallyexist.LearningthroughteachingwasrelativelyslowtogainpopularityuntilagroupofscientistsintheUnitedStatesbegantotestitseffectiveness.Inoneofthefirstexperiments,CatherineChaseandcolleaguestestedon62eighth-graderswhoweretaskedwithusingacomputerprogramtostudythebiological(生物学的)changesthatoccurwhenwegetafever.Overtwolessons,theyhadtoreadatextandthencreateamind-mapexplainingthedifferentprocessesandtherelationshipsbetweenthem.Forhalftheteens,themind-mappresentedtheresultofself-study.Theothersweretoldthattheirmind-mapwouldhelptoteachavirtualcharacter.Itwasnotabigdifference,butthestudentsintheroleofteacherscoredsignificantlybetter.Thisincreasedparticipationhadabiginfluence:boththeamounttheygotandthedepthoftheirunderstanding.Attheendofthetwoclasses,participantswhohadplayedtheroleofteacherhadkeptmuchmoreofthematerial,withmuchstrongerperformanceontestquestions.Chase’steamnamedthisthe“protegeeffect”andithassincebeenstudiedmanytimes.Theselaterstudiessuggestthatlearningbyteachingismorepowerfulthanothermnemonic(助记符号)techniqueslikeself-testing.Ifweknowthatothersaregoingtolearnfromus,wefeelasenseofresponsibilitytoprovidetherightinformation,sowemakeagreaterefforttofillinthegapsinourunderstandingandcorrectanymistakenthoughts.Sharingourknowledgethenhelpstostrengthenwhatwehavelearned.Whynottrytoapplytheprotegeeffectintopractice?12.WhydoestheauthormentionMiainparagraph1?A.TostresstheimportanceofAI.B.Toshareastoryofastudybuddy.C.Tointroduceaphenomenonaboutstudy.D.Toshowhowtofinishtextbookexercises.13.Whatwasdifferentaboutthetwogroupsintheexperiment?A.Theydifferinlearningtime.
