The Cold War, a tense global condlict between the U.S and the Soviet Union, affected today’s world in many major ways. And one of its results was The Space Race: a historical period during which both countries constantly demonstrated new technologies to prove that they are better at space exploration The beginning of the Space Race was marked with the launch of the Soviet satellite Sputnik 1 in 1957. The public in the U.S was shocked when they saw that the Soviet Union, whose economy was still recovering after World War II. achieved this milestone first, especially when the U.S. government had already formed a plan to launch its own artificial satellite. something they did not manage to do until 1958 with the Explorer 1. That same yeas, NASA was officially founded and publicly announced the creation of a program to send human passengers into space. In the first half of the space race, the Soviet Union was considered to be ahead. Its engineers accomplished many firsts, including the first probe to reach the moon, Luna 2. In April 1961, the Soviets obtained another spectacular victory with the successful flight of Yuri Gagarin, the first person to fly in space. Upon his safe return to Earth, Gagarin was hailed 2s an international hero. Then, in 1969, the Space Race reached its peak with the Apollo 11 mission, in which Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon and walked on its surface. Even though the race did not officially reach its conclusion after this historic event, it was widely believed to have been won by the US at this point. Eventually, as the Cold War was slowly coming to an end, both sides agreed to stop theRace and cooperate in space. and this led to the construction of the International Space Station (ISS). which officially began in 1998 (Adapted from space.com) Question 39: What is the passage mainly about?

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions Many people may be surprised to hear that poaching - the illegal bunting of wild animals - is still one of the biggest drivers of extinction, despite efforts from governments around the world. From figuring out where illegal hunting is taking place to identifying the source of an animal product, conservationists still face many challenges. That being said, developments in technology are putting new tools into the hands of the law enforcement officials and conservation biologists who desperately need them One difficulty faced when illegal bones, horns and skin are seized is knowing where they came that artificial intelligence can help. For example, every tiger has a from. Fortunately, there are w unique stripe pattern, like a fingerprint. With this knowledge in mind, scientists in India have created a database powered by AI containing images of tigers and their specific stripe pattern, which has been successfully implemented to determine that a piece of tiger skin came from a protected area and thus had been poached rather than farmed. Information like this is hugely valuable for officials, since it allows them to pimpoint areas where there is poaching activity. Currently. efforts are being made to expand the database with images from other countries and regions worldwide Taking a different approach is Professor Fritz Vollrath of the University of Oxford, who spent decades studying the properties of various biological materials before tuming his attention to ivory. He is now working with researchers in China to develop a man-made version of natural ivory. “Ivory is a nice material that people like to handle — but does it have to come from a dead elephant? What if we can create a mixture of collagen and minerals that has the same qualities?” he says. Likewise, startup company Pembient is trying to produce a synthetic form of rhino hora. They've created a few prototypes aad expect their final product to be ready for sale in 2022 at oaly $2.61 per gram. Meanwhile, Professor Milind Tambe in California, using 14 years of data on poaching activities in Queen Elizabeth National Park, were able to create a system that would predict likely hotspots for poaching and direct patrols there to remove traps before they can kill any animals, plus generate new routes (0 areas Where patrols were often sparse in the past. Perfecting the program day by day, Tambe is now partnering with many wildlife agencies to integrate it into their software. “My job is to support conservationists, and to see what I can do for them,” says Tambe.

The Cold War, a tense global conflict between the U.S and the Soviet Union, affected today’s world in many major ways. And one of its results was The Space Race: a historical period during which both countries constantly demonstiated new technologies to prove that they ase better at space exploration. The beginning of the Space Race was marked with the launch of the Soviet satellite Sputnik 1 ia 1957.The public in the U.S was shocked when they saw that the Soviet Union, whose economy was still recovering after World War Il, achieved this milestone first, especially when the US. government had already formed 2 plan to launch its own artificial satellite something they did not manage to do umil 1958 with the Explorer 1. That same year, NASA was officially founded and publicly announced the creation of a program to send human passengers into space In the first half of the space race, the Soviet Union was considered to be ahead. Is engineers accomplished maay firsts, including the first probe to reach the moon, Luna 2. In April 1961, the Soviets obtained another spectacular victory with the successful flight of Yuri Gagarin, the first person to fly in space. Upon his safe return to Earth, Gagarin was hailed as an intemational hero Then, in 1969, the Space Race reached its peak with the Apollo I] mission, in which Neil Anmstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon and walked on its surface. Even though the race did not officially reach its conclusion after this historic event, it was widely believed to have been won by the U.S at this point. Eventually, as the Cold War wes slowly coming to an end, both sides agreed to stop the Race and cooperate im space aad this Ied to the construction of the Interaational Space Station (ISS), which officially began in 1998 (Adapted from space.com) Ch ‘rank Lan, mét cudc sung dét toin thang gitta Hoa Ky va Liga XS, 48 aah huéng dén thé gidi ngay nay theo nhiéu khia can.

From figuring out where illegal lnunting is taking place to identifying the cousce of an animal product. conservationists still face many challenges. That being said, developments in technology are putting new tools into the hands the Inw enforcement officials and conservation biologists who desperately need them One difficulty faced when illegal bones, horns and skin are seized is knowing where they came from. Fortunately. ways artificial intelligence can help. For example, every tiger has a unique stripe patter, like a fingerprint With this knowledge in mund, scientists m India have created a database powered by Al containing images of tigers and their specific stripe pattem. which has been successfully implemented to determine that a piece of tiger skin came from a protected area and thus had been poached rather than farmed. Information like this is hugely valuable for officials, since it allows them to pinpoint areas where there is poaching activity Currently, efforts are being made to expand the database with images regions worldwide. Taking a different approach is Professor Fritz Vollrath of the University of Oxford, who spent decades studying the properties of biological materials before mming his attention to ivory. He is now working with researchers in China to develop a man-made version of natural ivory. “Ivory is a nice material that people like to handle — but does it have to come from a dead elephant? What if we can create a mixture collagen and minerals that has the same qualities?” he says. Likewise, startup company Pembient is trying to produce a synthetic form shino hom. They've created a few prototypes and expect their final product to be ready for sale in there are that from other countries and Bia Nhiéu ngudi cé thé ngac nhiém khi biét rng nan san trom - sn bat trai phép déng vat hoang da - van 1a mét trong abimg nguyén nhan lon nbat din dén sv tuyét ching, bat chap nhtng 6 lve ciia cae chinh phu trén khap thé gioi.
