Michael Laffoon has a vivid memory of the day he decided to piece his life back together.“I
literally woke up in my van (小货车) and I thought I can't do this anymore because I'm going to
die，” he says.“It was just a strong feeling that I had come to the end of a chapter.”
For eight years， the Santa Cruz， California resident drifted in and out of homelessness
because of a serious disease.It was a frustrating，impossible lifestyle.In 2009，Laffoon learned
about Homeless Garden Project at a kitchen where he was volunteering.The notforprofit aims to
lift people living on the streets of Santa Cruz out of homelessness through farming.The end goal is
that they will leave the farm with stable housing and a fulltime job.
After a year and a half of being in the program，Laffoon was able to secure employment and
stable housing.He later obtained a degree in horticulture (园艺学).“It was the first step back into
normal society—the first open door，” he says.
Trainees are employed to grow fruit，vegetables，flowers and herbs on the farm.They get paid
a wage，are given basic job skills training and are matched with a social worker to work through
specific goals.The project has helped close to 1，000 people.Over the past five years，96 percent
of graduates have obtained jobs or stable income and 86 percent have found housing.
The project's staffers say that the project has always had a strong element of community，
which is central to the healing process of its trainees，as they often feel like they've lost their sense
of belonging.Laffoon says that while he was homeless，he spent a lot of his time “trying to be
invisible” and felt secluded from the rest of society.The project gave him meaningful work and a
sense of belonging，which helped him get back on his feet.
Ella Fleming， the project's farm manager， has seen how growing food can have a
life changing and inspirational impact on trainees.“We provide a place where it's safe， it's
nurturing，it's healthy and there's an exchange that happens，” she says.“When you're caring for
a plant to try to get it to grow，you're also giving yourself some selfcare to know that you can
grow，”she says.
24.What kind of person is Laffoon described as in the text？
A.A person who fights his disease.
B.A person who has never experienced homelessness.
C.A person who gets stable housing and a fulltime job.
D.A person who benefits from Homeless Garden Project.
共 10 页 第 4页25.What is the purpose of Homeless Garden Project for homeless people？
A.To employ them to work on the farm.
B.To provide them with housing and work.
C.To enable them to make a living in society.
D.To give them opportunities for volunteering.
26.What does the underlined word “secluded” in Paragraph 5 indicate？
A.Laffoon felt alone in the world.
B.Laffoon felt sorry for himself.
C.Laffoon felt different from others.
D.Laffoon felt unsatisfied with society.
27.Which of the following can best describe Homeless Garden Project？
A.It's flexible. B.It's enjoyable.

We grow up going to school and learning about “common core” subjects，along with
others.We are also given information about things from the media， governments， and the
Internet.We are conditioned by all of this information to see reality.But all that learning is not as
important as it's made out to be.In fact，it can be limiting you to a life of mediocrity (平庸).
The more you learn about things，whether they are true or not，the more rigid your reality
becomes.The less possible certain things seem to be limiting your ability to imagine possibilities
as a child does.This goes for information as well as applied activities.
This is not to say that you should not learn anything.The key is，you should be able to learn，
unlearn，and relearn.You should be able to get rid of information that becomes contradicted by
something with more evidence supporting it，and reprogram over things which no longer serve
your continued evolution.
The sooner you allow yourself to go through the process of unlearning，the easier it will be to
unlearn things which are limiting your ability to see things as the limitless possibilities they are.As
Seneca once said，“The mind is slow to unlearn what it learned early.” This is why you see old
people become set in their ways， being imprisoned by the same beliefs they had in their
youth.Once those beliefs are formed in the brain， it will take something extraordinary to
reprogram over them.
You can go about unlearning by making a list of a few beliefs you have about things which
you feel may be holding you back from evolving.Then explore what else is possible in regards to
those areas and take action.When you come across information and receive greater understanding
on something，make it a part of your reality and belief system.
Remind yourself that even though some new information has replaced what you believed was
true and worth continuing to support，it may one day also be replaced by something even more
consistent with truth and more helpful with your evolution.
Learning to unlearn is the highest form of learning.You will begin to notice you are growing
once again.
28.When should you unlearn things？
A.When they become boring.
B.When they are no longer helpful.
C.When they are against your beliefs.
D.When they are difficult to learn.
29.What is the purpose of mentioning old people in Paragraph 4？
A.To prove that the mind is slow to unlearn.
共 10 页 第 5页B.To prove that unlearning should be done early.
C.To show that it is hard for young people to unlearn.
D.To show that it's unnecessary for old people to unlearn.
30.What message does the author intend to get to us in Paragraph 6？
A.Unlearning never ends.
B.Unlearning requires patience.
C.Unlearning is a slow process.
D.Unlearning may be unsuccessful.
31.What advice can be given according to the concept of unlearning？
A.Never learn useless things.
B.Always believe in yourself.
C.Always seek something better.
D.Never try to get too much.

Not only do we humans enjoy talking—and talking a lot—we also do so in very different
ways： about 6， 000 languages are spoken today worldwide.How this wealth of expression
developed，however，largely remains unknown.A group of researchers at the Max Planck
Institute for Psycholinguistics have now found that wordorders in languages from different
language
families develop differently.
This contradicts the common understanding that wordorder develops in accordance with a
set of universal rules，applicable to all languages.The researchers have concluded that languages
do not primarily follow innate (固有的) rules of language processing in the brain.Rather，sentence
structure is determined by the historical context in which a language develops.
The researchers analysed 301 languages from four major language families：Austronesian，
IndoEuropean，Bantu and UtoAztecan.They focused on the order of the different sentence parts，
such as “verbobject”，“prepositionnoun”，or “relative clausenoun”，and whether their
position in the sentence influenced the other parts of the sentence.In this way，the researchers
wanted to find out whether the position of the verb has other syntactic (句法的) consequences：if
the verb is placed before the object，for example，“The player kicks the ball”，is the preposition
also placed before the noun (“into the goal”)？ Such a pattern is observed in many languages，
but is it a common feature of how languages develop？
“ Our study shows that different processes occur in different language families，” says
Michael Dunn，the lead researcher.“The evolution of language does not follow one universal set
of rules.” For example，the “verbobject” pattern influences the “prepositionnoun” pattern
in the Austronesian and IndoEuropean languages，but not in the same way，and not in the other
two language families.
“ Cultural evolution has much more influence on language development than universal
factors.Language structure is apparently not so much biologically determined as it is shaped by its
ancestry，” says Michael Dunn.
32.What does the underlined “This” in Paragraph 2 refer to？
A.People enjoy talking a lot in different ways.
B.About 6，000 languages are spoken today worldwide.
C.The group of researchers at the Max Planck Institute.
D.Wordorders in different languages develop differently.
33.Why did the researchers analyse the 301 languages？
A.To find out which language family they belonged to.
共 10 页 第 6页B.To find out whether they had an influence on sports.
C.To find out how sentences in them were formed.
D.To find out whether they developed the same way or
not.
34.What can be known from the study about the
language development？
A.It's a natural process. B.It's a cultural process. C.It's
a universal process. D.It's a biological process.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text？
A.How Languages Changed in History
B.What Rules Language Development Obeys
C.Historical Context Guides Language
Development
D.Sentence Structure Determines Language Development

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多
余选项。
Dreaming big doesn't mean we suddenly want to be a millionaire or become famous.That's
because “bigger” is a relative term.If we currently have no dreams，dreaming bigger might just
mean a small goal that we want to reach.But even that is not always easy.So how do you start
dreaming bigger？
Cultivate Confidence.To achieve big things，you have to believe that you can.Therefore，
the first thing we need to dream big is to get a confidence boost.Try to remember a time when
you
succeeded in doing something you set your mind to. 36
Face Fear of Failure.The fear of doing something big can be intense.What if we fail？
What then？ If this sounds like you，it may be helpful to develop the belief that growth and
learning are more important than success or other people's opinions. 37 That way we can
better enjoy the pursuit，even if it ultimately does result in failure.
Face Fear of Success.Success can mean different things to different people.For example，
success might mean feeling like the odd one out in your family or friend group. 38 Or，it
could lead to jealousy from others.But taking a closer outlook at these fears and thinking about
how you might deal with them can help you move through them.
Use Your Imagination. 39 Maybe you imagine yourself owning your own business，
having a big family，or traveling all over the world.Then does living this life feel good or authentic
？ Use this exercise to better understand which big dreams are a good fit for you.
Enjoy the Process.Sometimes we end up spending so much time focusing on big dreams that
we forget to enjoy the process.Indeed，big dreams can help us imagine a life or a future we've
never known. 40 If we don't enjoy the process，it's going to be tough to get there.
A.But big dreams take time.
B.We are taking control of our lives.
C.Striving towards dreams can decrease wellbeing.
D.It might mean more responsibility than you really want.
E.Use your experiences as inspiration and selfmotivation.
F.Start by visualizing a variety of different possible exciting outcomes.
G.It can help you shift your focus to the journey instead of the end goal.

It was a rather crowded day at the subway station.Seeing the busy passersby stopped by his
performance，Eric，a music lover who just graduated from college，wore a big smile on his
face.With deep passion for music，he showed up in the station in his spare time，singing and
playing the guitar to people travelling to and from the subway station.
With the melodious (悦耳的) song coming to an end，hearty applause burst out.As usual，Eric
expressed his gratitude， nodding his head with a smile.“ Man， awesome！ An outstanding
performance！” Approached a man，holding the hand of a little girl in a ponytail (马尾辫)，aged
about four.
“Park，a producer of a record company，” The man introduced himself，holding out his
hand.“Would you like to give it a try in my company？” Out of politeness，Eric shook hands
with him in amazement.
“I haven't seen somebody this good in a long time！ You are a beautiful scenery of this city，
with such a beautiful voice！” Park admired.Suddenly， a phone call interrupted their
conversation.Park briefly invited Eric to meet later in the same place and walked away to answer
the call.Seeing Park off，Eric did realize what had happened，with warm current flowing from his
head to toes.It was the first time that he had earned such kind of recognition，which was totally out
of his expectation.
“A beautiful scenery of the city，with a beautiful voice！” Eric repeated the words，cleaning
his guitar and preparing for the next performance.At that time，he caught sight of a little girl in a
ponytail standing in a corner，weeping and looking around.Carrying his guitar，Eric approached
her and squatted (蹲) down，“What's wrong with you，honey？”
