原文
Anna Du was walking along the beach when she noticed plastics there. She reached down to pick them up,and quickly realized there were many more tiny pieces than she could deal with. It seemed i( ) to clean them all up.
Du,12 years old at the time,tried to solve the problem like any good scientist-first,by doing a little r( 2 ). She conducted surveys and searched for information. That's how she learned that 8 million tons of plastics end up in the oceans every year.
Then she got to work building something that could help solve the problem： a remote﹣ operated vehicle （遙控潛水器） ﹣﹣ ROV， Her ROV can move through water and find plastics on the ocean floor.
The actually cool part of Du's ROV is the detection （探測） system. She uses a c( 3 ) amera along with three different kinds of light to find the plastics through pictures. She also uses visible （可見的） light to find unnatural colors that might make the plastics stand out.
"She has a very good engineering sense to break down a problem like this and then go after it，" says engineer Casey Machado， "It sounds s( 4 )， but it's a level of thinking that's really difficult."
Do started attending public events and workshops at a university when she was five years old， and so she picked up the engineering skills necessary to build her ROV. She says actually getting her ROV to move through water well was not easy. She f（5） many times， but she never gave up trying and testing.
When asked about future plans， she said that she wanted to address the effects of climate （氣候） change. "I think there are a lot of problems that could be solved with new i（6）." says Du.
Du thanks her parents， who for years have taken her to student outreach activities， for supporting her interest in science， technology， engineering and math （STEM）. She says she has been able to meet students and scientists there.
"I know I want to be an engineer because I like building things to help solve world problems，" says Du. "But I'm not sure what kind of engineer I want to be yet."
L（ 7 )， she has plenty of time to figure that out at her age.
文章大意
本文講述了年輕科學家Anna Du發現海洋塑膠汙染問題，併發明遙控潛水器（ROV）來解決的故事。她從海灘上的塑膠碎片出發，透過調研和搜尋資訊，認識到每年有數百萬噸塑膠流入海洋。她設計的ROV能夠探測海底塑膠，利用不同光線和相機拍照定位。Du從小培養工程技能，堅持不懈地試驗和改進ROV。她表示希望用新發明解決氣候變化等問題，並感謝父母對她STEM領域的支援。她夢想成為工程師，為世界問題貢獻自己的力量。
解析
1 It seemed i( impossible ) to clean them all up.
翻譯
似乎要清理完所有這些塑膠碎片是不可能的
分析
根據句子分析，此處缺形容詞
上一句說碎片太多，她無法收集完，因此清理完看起來是不可能的，所以填 impossible (不可能的)
2 Du,12 years old at the time,tried to solve the problem like any good scientist-first,by doing a little r( research ).
翻譯
當時年僅12歲的杜像所有優秀的科學家一樣，首先透過進行一些研究來嘗試解決這個問題。
分析
根據句子分析，此處缺名詞
科學家解決問題，要研究、調查 ，因此填 research (研究、調查)
3 She uses a c( camera ) along with three different kinds of light to find the plastics through pictures.
翻譯
她使用相機配合三種不同的光線，透過圖片來尋找塑膠。
分析
根據句子分析，此處缺名詞
根據上下文透過圖片來找塑膠，圖片是拍出來的，因此填 camera (相機)
4 It sounds s( simple ),but it's a level of thinking that's really difficult.
翻譯
這聽起來很簡單，但這是一種真正難以達到的思維水平
分析
根據句子分析，此處缺形容詞
聽起來簡單，做起來難，後面表述是一種難以達到的水平，因此前面填 simple (簡單的)
5 She f( failed ) many times， but she never gave up trying and testing.
翻譯
她失敗了很多次，但她從未放棄嘗試和測試。
分析
根據句子分析，此處缺形容詞
後面說從未放棄嘗試和測試，說明前面失敗了很多次了，過去發生的，因此用過去式所以填 failed (失敗)
6 I think there are a lot of problems that could be solved with new i（ideas/ inventions）.
翻譯
我認為有很多問題可以透過新的想法/發明來解決
分析
根據句子分析，此處缺名詞
很多科學問題的解決，需要有新想法，創新，因此填ideas(想法)/ inventions(發明)
7 L（ Luckily )， she has plenty of time to figure that out at her age.
翻譯
幸運的是，她這個年紀有很多時間去弄清楚這個問題
分析
句首一般放置副詞Luckily。它可以用來修飾整個句子或句子的某一部分，表達一種僥倖或幸運的語氣
這麼多問題，她有很多時間去弄清楚，說明是幸運的
