Heroes come in all shapes and sizes. Some heroes, like Lucca, are not even human. Lucca is a 12-year-old US Marine Crops (海軍陸戰(zhàn)隊) dog. On April 5, Lucca received an award for her brave military service, during which she lost one of her front legs. Lucca is now retired and lives in California.
Lucca was in London, England, to receive the Dickin Medal from the British charity People’s Dispensary for Sick Animals (PDSA). The organization provides free medical care to the sick and injured pets of people in need. The PDSA calls the Dickin Medal “the highest award any animal in the world can achieve while serving in military conflict (軍事沖突)”.
Lucca is the first US Marine Crops dog to receive the medal. She and her owner, Gunnery Willingham, traveled to London, England, for the award ceremony. “Lucca is very intelligent and had an amazing drive for work.” Willingham said.
Lucca was trained to find hidden weapons and explosive devices. She lost one of her legs in an explosion while on patrol (巡邏) in Afghanistan in 2012.
During her six years of active military service in Iraq and Afghanistan, Lucca completed more than 400 missions. She was trained to find hidden weapons and explosive devices. She was so effective on duty that no human troops were killed during any of her patrols.
But Lucca did not escape injury. On March 23, 2012, she was on patrol in Afghanistan’s Helmand province. An explosive device was set off under her. Lucca lost her front left leg right away. She also suffered serious burns on her body.
Lucca is the 66th animals to receive the Dickin Medal since it was introduced in 1943. The award has been given to 30 dogs (including Lucca), 32 World War II messenger pigeons, three horses and one cat.

Getting electricity has always been a problem for the 173 people living in Nuevo Saposoa, a small village in Peru, South America. However, things went worse in March 2017 after heavy rains damaged the only power cables(電纜) in the area. The villagers were forced to use oil lamps, which are not only expensive but also dangerous because of the harmful gases they produce.
Luckily, researchers at the University of Technology (UT) in Lima, Peru heard about their problem and found a wonderful method to solve it. They made a lamp that can be powered by plants and soil, both of which can be easily found in the Amazonian rainforest where the village lies. The lamp takes energy from a plant growing in a wooden box and uses it to light up an LED light bulb.
While that may sound amazing and even impossible, the science behind the idea is quite simple. As plants create their food (using the sun’s energy, water and chemicals from the soil), they also produce waste which they return to the soil. Tiny animals in the soil eat this waste and they produce electrons(電子). The UT team put special sticks inside the soil to get the energy and keep it in the lamp’s batteries for later use. The researchers say a single charge(電荷) can power a 50-walt LED light for two hours-enough time for local villagers to get their evening work done.
The university gave ten Plant Lamps to the villagers of Nuevo Saposoa in October 2017. So far, they have been a huge success! Elmer Ramirez, the UT professor who invented the lamp, believes the Plant Lamp could help improve the lives of many people, especially small rainforest communities, 42% of whom have no electricity.
Topic: A new invention-the Plant Lamp | |
The problem in the small village | The people living in Nuevo Saposoa have much 1. getting electricity. However, things went worse for the only power cables there were destroyed by heavy rains.

An organism’s environment is all the living and nonliving things that surround and influence the organism(生物體). You are living with many things that make your environment suitable for you to live in. Would that be true if you lived in a swamp(沼澤)?
Environments include biotic parts and abiotic parts. Biotic parts are the living things in an environment: plants, animal, and other organisms. Abiotic parts are the nonliving things. Abiotic parts of an environment include climate, water, earth, light, air and nutrients. The abiotic parts of an environment have an important role. Temperature and amount of water influence which plants and animals can live in a place. An ibis(朱鹮) gets used to living in a warm, wet swamp and cannot live in a hot, dry desert.
An ecosystem is all the organisms living in a place together with their environment. An ecosystem can be huge, such as a large forest or desert. Or it can be small, such as a small pool or a single bush. Each ecosystem has its own collection of living and nonliving things.
A swamp ecosystem is made up of both living and nonliving things. The climate, plenty of water, air, muddy soils are all abiotic parts that make swamps different from other environments. Birds, black bears, trees, bushes, and mosquitoes are all biotic parts of a swamp environment.
1.Biotic parts include many things in an environment except _________.
A. snakes B. strawberry C. wheat D. sand
2.The example of an ibis is used to explain the importance of _________.
A. the organisms B. the abiotic parts C. the ecosystem D. the swamp
3.The underlined word “abiotic” probably _____ in Chinese in this passage
A. 環(huán)境的 B. 無生命的 C. 微生物的 D. 自然的
4.Which of the fo1lowing is not true?
A. If all swamps disappear, ibis will be endangered.
B. In an ecosystem, abiotic parts are not connected to the living things.
C. An ecosystem can be very big or very small.
D. An ecosystem includes living things along with nonliving things.
5.The best title of this passage is _________.
A. What is an ecosystem? B. An Organism’s Environment
C. A Swamp Ecosystem D. The Biotic and Abiotic Parts of An Environment
