Jonathan Drori's interest in plants dates back to his years when growing up in south-
west London. They lived within walking distance of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, home
学科网（北京）股份有限公司to one of the most diverse collections of plants in the world. His parents would take him
and his brother frequently to the gardens, exploring the grounds and discovering new plant
species from around the world.
"My father was trained in botany but worked as an engineer, while my mother was
interest- ed in the beauty of plants, "he says, "She would carry a magnifying glass in her
purse, and we' d go to Kew every week to look at the individual plants. "
Now Drori is a botany expert. He's built a career as an educator, focusing on the en-
vironment and technology, and is also a productive author. His new book explains the his-
torical and cultural significance of different plant species. Using a map as his guide, he
selected about eighty plants from around the world, and each has an interesting backstory.
that focuses on the cultural significance and botanical structure of each species.
For example, amaranth （苋菜）from Peru has almost been forgotten, since it's often
over- shadowed by more readily available whole grains like oats and rye. However, it has
gained popularity in recent years thanks to being highly nutritious and a good source of
beneficial acids. In fact, before the Spanish Conquest in 1519, amaranth was a major food-
stuff of the Inca and Aztec empires. The Aztecs used its seeds for ceremonial purposes,
mixing amaranth flour into figures representing important deities within their culture, such as
Tlaloc, the god of rain.
21. Where did Jonathan Drori's interest in botany mainly come from?
A. His collection B. His teachers C. His books D. His childhood
22. Which of the following is the most possible title for Jonathan Drori's new book?
A. Around the World in 80 Plants B. How Plants Relate to Civiliza-
tion
C. How Plants Tell Stories of History D. A Brief History of Research on
Plants
23. What leads to amaranth becoming more and more popular recently?
A. Its historical value B. Its ceremonial value
C. Its healthy value D. Its cultural value

学科网（北京）股份有限公司Early in my time in China, I. asked a coworker. if she noticed anything Americans do
that is strange. "You're always fighting, even with your best friend, "she said. She had
never. seen me fight with my friend, so I was surprised, until I realized she was referring
to a philosophical de- bate. Though passionate, my friend and I would hardly have consid-
ered it a fight. According to him, many Chinese wouldn't tell their friend to "shut your mouth
when you speak to me" or tell them, "your logic is so dumb- you don't have object perma-
nence", which is opposed to social harmony.
Words are metaphors, serving to comprehend abstract ideas or beliefs. Each language
possesses an inner logic, influencing how its speakers structure sentences and understand
words. This uniqueness extends beyond mere vocabulary; it spreads to the system of ex-
pression, shaping thoughts and ideas. Regardless-of how skilled one becomes at communi-
cating, or how many dictionaries they've read, they cannot guarantee that the listener. un-
derstands them correctly.
Each language barrier exists within speakers of the same language. In 2013, I worked
with a British man who had lived in China for a-decade and spoke Chinese fluently. It
took him about 10 years to fully understand the culture. Either I, 'm silly, or he was kid-
ding me.
I can confidently say that after all' this time, I'm even more confused. than I was
then. . The concepts and ideas I. learn about Chinese culture expand endlessly, and I sus-
pect that will always be true. If I'm lucky, I'll have another 30 years of life, less time than
more intelligent men than I have spent studying culture.
Perhaps I'm not meant to understand China. There is acceptance and peace in that.
With my foreign friends, I will joke and even tease them and with my Chinese friends, I
will ask questions to avoid giving the impression I. am fighting with them. I will embrace
cross-cultural confusion and persist in understanding my Chinese friends, family, coworkers
and neighbors, because that knowledge bears gifts of wisdom and joy. My. life is better for
it.
24. What impression does the author leave on his Chinese friend?
A. He specializes in debating. B. He is kind of rude to friends.
C. He argues with others much. D. He is passionate about philosophy.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司25. What does the author stress about the language in. Paragraph 2?
A. Its inner logic B. Its significant complexity
C. Its abstract origin D. Its changing structure
26. What makes the author more puzzled when living longer in China?
A. Profound Chinese culture B. His British friend's, experience
C. Little time spent with family D. Different understanding of humor
27. Which is the author's plan for future life?
A. He will take China as it is. B. He will return to his motherland.
C. He will be more serious in China. D. He will persist in academic study.

In recent years, the popular idea of reducing carbon footprints by eating locally to cut
down food miles has come under close examination. However, a recent study published in
Nature Food indicates that global food miles might account for as much as 20 percent of
food-related emissions, a significantly higher percentage than previous estimations. This
statement begs the question: Are food miles more significant than we initially believed?
Food miles represent the distance food travels from production to consumption, with
previous studies suggesting that the emissions from these miles are tiny compared to the
emissions produced during the food growing process. For instance, producing one kilogram
of beef generates almost 99 kg of CO2, while apples only produce 0. 4 kg per kilogram.
If the goal is to minimize dietary carbon footprints, it would be more beneficial to choose
foods with lower overall carbon footprints, even if they have to travel a distance. There-
fore, reducing meat and dairy intake could prove to be a more effective strategy.
The recent study doesn’t contradict （相矛盾）this conclusion. The reason why the re-
ported proportion is higher is that the calculation includes all transport involved, including the
transportation of fertilizers, farm equipment, and pesticides （杀虫剂）. Hannah Ritchie, a
researcher at the University of Oxford, suggests that a term other than "food miles" would be
more appropriate to avoid any confusion. If the study had followed the standard definition of
food miles, the per- centage would drop to 9 percent, which corresponds more closely with
the 4 to 6 percent found in prior research.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司Moreover, the study theorizes that even if all food was produced in the countries
where it is consumed, the reduction in emissions would only be 1. 7 percent. overall. This
is due to the fact that a larger proportion of food would be transported by road rather than
by sea, with trucks producing higher emissions per ton of cargo than ships.
"So, overall, the bottom line is still that what you eat has a much bigger impact on
emissions than the distance that food has to travel to reach you, said Ritchie.
28. What has the recent study found?
A. Food production has caused a lot of carbon emissions.
B. Carbon emissions from food miles are increasing rapidly.
C. Carbon emission reduction largely depends on eating locally.
D. Global food miles lead to more carbon emissions than expected.
29. Why does the author mention "beef" and "apples" in paragraph. 2?
A. To explain the benefits of apples
B. To highlight food production's effect
C. To compare beef and apple production
D. To advocate short-distance transportation
30. Which of the following is the best solution to food-related carbon footprints?
A. Supplying. high-calory foods
B. Upgrading food delivery systems
C. Reducing meat and dairy consumption
D. Avoiding chemical pesticides for plants
31. What is the Ritchie's attitude toward the recent study finding?
A. Unfavourable B. Supportive C. Tolerant D. Uncertain
D
Traditionally, many decisions about medical treatment were left up to doctors: They
decided, and patients agreed. Today, health care professionals are embracing the idea of
shared decision-making, where patients become informed partners in their choices. Health
care professionals now focus on placing the patient at the center of care, informing them
about their options, and engaging them in treatment decisions. For example, they engage
学科网（北京）股份有限公司patients by asking, "What' s important to you? And what are your priorities and goals as
we. talk about a treatment plan?"
"I think there's a strong recognition in American medicine, of the importance of patient
engagement not only. in their care, but in deciding what types of care and types of proce-
dures they're going to get, "said Dr. Allen, a professor of medicine at the University of
Colorado School of Medicine in Aurora.
A 2017 study, published in the journal Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Out-
comes found that people with heart disease who went through-shared decision-making had
better physical and mental health, better obedience to medication and lower rates of staying
in hospital and emergency department use. Patients also reported better communication with
their doctors. When people are more engaged in decision-making, they understand the pros
and cons of various treatment options, and they're more likely to stick to the treatment plan
and to continue that communication.
But research on how to best approach different, cultural groups is lacking. Many doc-
tors cite limited time as a barrier, although research shows that shared decision-making can
be accomplished even within short clinic visits. Also, current models of payment for doc-
tors' visits do not always agree with the goals of shared decision-making. But underlying all
that is that medical decisions can be "incredibly. complicated"
Making the practice work. on a wider scale is an evolving process. But in the long
run, Allen said: "shared decision-making can ensure that with all the amazing new tech-
nologies and treatments that we will have in medicine, they really can be applied to more
patients in a tailored, meaningful way that meets their own values, goals and preferences. "
32. What role do doctors play in shared decision-making?
A. They are at the center of care. B. They ask questions to patients:
C. They follow patients' opinions. D. They present suggestions to patients.
33. Which can be a benefit to patients from shared decision-making?
A. Shortened time in hospital B. Improved healthy awareness
C. Reduced mental problems D. Enhanced communication skills
34. What is the biggest challenge to shared decision-making?
A. Lack of family support
学科网（北京）股份有限公司B. Limited time and money
C. Uniqueness of medical treatment
D. Complicated medicine production process
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Shared Decision Making: More than Technology?
B. Shared Decision Making: an Ideal Way for Patients
C. Shared Decision Making: a Future Model of Hospitals?
D. Shared Decision Making: Advantages and Disadvantages

Your alarm goes off on January 1. You force yourself out of bed and drag your feet
toward the bathroom, where you glimpse a pale-faced stranger in the mirror. 36 Af-
ter a moment, however, you think, "Wait, it's okay because today is New Year's Day;
there's time to get back in shape!"
For many people, the start of a new year signals the end of a period of overindul-
gence （放 纵） in diet. 3 7 . They often revolve around turning oneself into a fit and
healthy human being. However, the fact is that approximately 80% of them are abandoned
before February. How does that happen? 3 8 . While we may have good intentions when
making resolutions, we are not actually making enough determination to live in a more
controlled way. Change involves a degree of stress, and someone not mentally equipped to
handle that stress will struggle to change.
So, what can you do to achieve your healthy goals in the new year? One idea is to
think small rather than the opposite. 39 But in reality change is likely easier in
smaller steps, which allows for greater success. Another helpful strategy is to design a per-
sonal reward system. Finally, set concrete goals. Instead of making a vague resolution like
"I'm going to get in better shape this year, make a specific one. For example, "I'm going to
run for 30 minutes every day" would be far more powerful. Most importantly, remember that
despite their name, New Year's resolutions should be for life. 40 but with suitable
学科网（北京）股份有限公司strategies, there is no reason why you cannot stick to your resolutions permanently or at
least until March.
A. Change takes time and effort
B. Instinctively, you step back in horror
C. It's probably related to self-discipline
D. Many people's plans involve grand measures
E. The answer is likely that we should be confident
F. New Year is a great time to be with family and friends
G. In December it's often justified by planning New Year's resolutions

In a house far from the city lived John and his mother. John's only hobby was wan-
dering in the nearby picturesque forest. In its center was a shiny clear lake with schools of
fish dancing in it. Fascinated by the beauty and liveliness of nature, he desired to become a
great artist and present all the breathtaking scenes to the world.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司John studied in the local primary school. Life was not easy for John and his mom af-
ter his father died. Knowing what hard work his mother did to' make ends meet, John. re-
ally didn't want his mother to worry. His mother knew the significance of education in life
but she was against his dream of becoming an artist. "The profession of artist can't aid a
person in meeting his daily expenses, "she would say. But as each day passed, John's.
dream: became more passionate.
Due to the living circumstances, even buying some new colors would be a luxury.
John only used the worn drawing file and limited colors for his daily practice. He never
gave up drawing. He spent a significant amount of time staying in-the forest, secretly per-
fecting his craft. With continuous hard work and a distinct gift for art, he drew beautifully.
One day John read about a competition being held in the town, whose deadline was
only two days away. He got the perfect opportunity to fulfill his desire but he was in a
dilemma as for the competition he needed special paints and some brushes. He didn't have
the courage to ask his mother for money as he knew her prejudice against art.
That evening his mom returned from work and handed him a few paper notes, saying,
"This is for your lunch at school next four days. "He worked up the courage hoping to
ask his mother if she could give him some more money so that he could -participate in
the competition, but finally, considering the family's financial difficulties, he swallowed the
words.
