In recent years, there has been a growing focus on the environment and human health. Though chemical
farming is used by over 90 per cent of the world’s farmers, the wide range of damage it has caused to the
environment and human health makes it a bad choice Organic tarming. on the other hand, aims to improve food
quality, reduce farming’s environmental impact and promote consumers’ health. It is therefore the option that
farmers may-choose.
Organic food is very popular. It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as non-organic food,
but new parents and pet owners are willing to pay up to 200% more for organic food. However, there are people
who think it is a waste of money.
There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural
chemicals, such as pesticides. In many countries organic foods have special labels. These guarantee that the
products are natural.
Some people think organic means locally grown. Originally this was true. Over time organic farming became
more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small companies had to sell out to large
companies. There weren’t enough organic ingredients, such as grain and cattle. This made it difficult for many
organic companies to stay in business. Today, many large-companies have an organic line of products.
Is organic food more nutritious? This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumers believe it is. They
学科网（北京）股份有限公司think agricultural chemicals cause health problems such as cancer Many health professionals disagree. Few studies
prove that organic foods prevent health problems. Health specialists worry more about bacteria, such as E. coli and
salmonella. These can get into contact with organic and non-organic food. Doctors recommend washing produce
very carefully. Handling meat carefully is important too.
Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra money? This is a
matter of opinion. Whether it is healthier or not may require more research. However, organic consumers argue it is
better to be safe than sorry.
28．What phenomenon does the author describe at the beginning of the passage?
A．Chemical farming is a wise choice now.
B．The environment and human health draw no attention.
C．Organic farming has taken the place of Chemical farming.
D．The positive effects of organic farming contribute to farmers’ favor.
29．What can we know from the passage?
A．Some organic food costs much more than non-organic food.
B．Organic farms consume quantities of agricultural chemicals.
C．It’s never hard for all organic companies to stay in business.
D．Health specialists pay no attention to E. coli and salmonella.
30．How does the author mainly develop Paragraph5?
A．By following time order. B．By providing some examples.
C．By showing cause and effect. D．By comparing opinions.
31．What is consumers’ major concern about the organic food?
A．Price. B．Safety. C．Freshness. D．Nutrition.

Be honest: how often does your social media scrolling lead to shopping? And how many of those
things that TikTok made you buy did you actually need? Enter de-influencing, the TikTok trend flipping
（颠覆）influencing on its head—and aiming to save our bank balances in the process.
De-influencing is the TikTok trend with hundreds of millions of views that’s challenging the hype
（炒作）around so-called popular products by telling you what you shouldn’t buy, instead of what you
should. It’s a response to a few different things, including a general feeling of overconsumption（you don’t
need more stuff just because TikTok says you do）and the cost of living crisis.
It sounds progressive, but once you scratch the surface, there isn’t a huge difference between influencing and
de-influencing. “De-influencing is a bit of a false product,” says Kendall. “It’s still influence but it’s telling
people what not to buy.”While TikTokers may be warning consumers away from expensive or well-known
products, some continue to influence by telling consumers what they should buy instead. For example, buying a
heated roller set on Amazon over the Dyson Airwrap — this is still suggesting products with sweeping promises.
Ironically speaking, de-influencing is a good strategy for influencers and brands. Rising living costs mean
consumers are less likely to spend a huge amount of money on big-ticket items, which means the influencers
promoting them are less likely to generate income. Turning to promoting cheaper products plays into the so-called
“Lipstick Effect,” where people treat themselves to little luxuries, instead of addictions, during times of economic
学科网（北京）股份有限公司uncertainty.
What is different about de-influencing is encouraging consumers to take a moment to think about whether they
need a product and whether it’s right for them versus whether they’re simply being influenced because it’s new,
popular, or exciting. This is part of a bigger movement in beauty. “There is also the reduction of regimens, the
ingredient diet, the skin minimalism, and the stripping back of excess linked to sustainability and over-
consumption,” says Kendall.“This is a positive approach to marketing.”
32．Why does the author use the questions at the beginning of Paragraph 1?
A To introduce the topic. B．To highlight an opinion.
C．To illustrate an argument. D．To predict the ending.
33．As for de-influencing, which would the author agree with?
A．It’s telling people what to buy to challenge the hype.
B．It is a bit of a true product influencing people.
C．It responds to a general feeling of overconsumption.
D．It’s an unwise strategy for influencers and brands.
34．What does de-influencing encourage consumers to do?
A．Get what is popular. B．Purchase a novel product.
C．Increase consumption in beauty. D．Buy only what is needed.
35．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A．De-influencing: The Trend Killing Influencer Marketing
B．Brands are all Scared of the De-influencing Trend
C．De-influencing Pushes the Shift to Overconsumption
D．De-influencing: The Trend Putting Truthfulness First

Dear Jack.
Learning that you are planning an activity named “Understanding Chinese Tea Culture”, I’m writing to offer
you some advice.
As for the content, I highly recommend a Chinese tea culture exhibition, where varieties of tea from different
regions of China can be displayed so that visitors can gain a further insight into the history of Chinese tea culture.
It’s necessary to hold a tea art performance, during which visitors can be given an opportunity to experience the tea-
making process and taste different types of tea. Thus, they are bound to better understand Chinese tea culture.
I hope these suggestions are helpful. If you prefer to know more, please don’t hesitate to let me know. May
your activity be successful!
Yours,
Li Hua

Tom went into the room and looked at the dog. That’s the lost dog he was looking for. He bent down, touching
the dog’s golden fur gently. Obviously, KiKi was well cared for. Meanwhile, the woman continued to say how
much they loved the dog and how it reminded them of their own beloved pet dog, CiCi. A pang of guilt seized Tom
as he knew he would have to take the dog away from this loving home. He doubted whether it was fair to take
KiKi away, especially when KiKi got the love and the care he deserved.
After a moment of hesitation, he struggled to say that the dog was not his aunt’s. Hearing this, the couple’s
faces lit up at once. “It means we can live with this cute dog?” the lady asked with excitement. Tom nodded,
believing that the kind couple would be more likely to give KiKi a better life, a life full of love, warmth and
company as KiKi was a valuable gift to them. Tom was delighted that he could help the dog and the couple and
make the world more beautiful and harmonious.
