文章大意：渔民们需要出海多日，如何让船舱内的鱼虾保鲜却成为难题。他们想出了一个办法，存水箱内放入一条鲨鱼，就是这条小鲨鱼帮了他们的大忙。在作者看来，生活也是这样。

1．A．island C．town

B．water D．tank

解析：根据文章中提到的fresh fish等语境可知，此处指靠近日本的海水(water)。 2．A．increase C．reduce

B．satisfy D．feed

解析：联系下文中的fishermen，说明捕鱼是为了养活(feed)日本的人口。其中increase是“增加”之意。

3．A．farther C．slower

B．longer D．faster

解析：结合上文中的“fishing boats got bigger and went a longer way than ever”可知，渔民走得越远(farther)，他们把鱼带回来所花费的时间就越长。

B．spent D．saved

解析：根据上文中的“the longer it took to bring the fish”可知，返回所花费(took)的时间越多，鱼就不新鲜了。

解析：上文中提到，返回的时间长了，鱼就变味，所以此处指为了解决这个问题(problem)，公司安装了制冷机。

6．A．encouraged C．forced

能保持新鲜。

解析：上文中把鱼放到水箱里，现在他们仍然是(still)这样。 14．A．injured C．observed

B．protected D．challenged

(2019·北京卷)

The problem of robocalls has gotten so bad that many people now refuse to pick up calls from numbers they don't know.By next year，half of the calls we receive will be scams (欺诈)．We are finally waking up to the severity of the problem by supporting and developing a group of tools，apps and approaches intended to prevent scammers from getting through.Unfortunately，it's too little，too late.By the time these “solutions”(解决方案) become widely available，scammers will have moved onto cleverer means.In the near future，it's not just going to be the number you see on your screen that will be in doubt.Soon you will also question whether the voice you're hearing is actually real.

That's because there are a number of powerful voice manipulation (处理) and automation technologies that are about to become widely available for anyone to use.
