Gabe was taking the steps two at a time. “Come on!” he called to Simon.
Simon started up. He was both sweating and freezing. Should he turn back? But the crowd behind him meant
he had to keep climbing.
At the top, Simon stamped his feet to stay warm while the kids were waiting for their turn. Was he the only
one who felt nervous? His brother stopped and looked at Simon. “Do you want me to go down with you?” he
asked.
Seeing his older brother’s face calmed Simon. Gabe had helped Simon learn to ride a scooter. The first day
Simon was at his new school, Gabe had drawn a map that showed where to find the lunchroom, the gym, and the
bus area.
Simon knew Gabe wanted to fly down the sledding hill without his little brother.
“Are you two going or not?” a girl behind him said.
Simon took a deep breath. “I’m going. By myself.”
“Good for you,” Gabe said.
Simon sat on the saucer. His heart was doing leapfrogs. Gabe gave him a small push on his back. Suddenly, he
was sledding down. Faster and faster, he went and he couldn’t stop. He couldn’t even scream until his saucer
slowed to a stop.

From strawberries to tomatoes, some of the UK’s favorite fruit and vegetables are high in ‘forever chemicals
(化学物质)’. But can we give up buying them? Pesticide Action Network (PAN) has found that many common
fruits and vegetables has harmful ‘forever chemicals’.
So-called ‘forever chemicals’ are made up of 10,000 chemicals; a group known as poly-and perfluoroalkyl
substances (PFAS), and branded ‘forever’ for their ability to remain in the environment and accumulate (积累) in
the body.
PAN analyzed results from the UK government testing, finding that ten different PFAS pesticides (农药) were
present in the common fruits and vegetables including grapes, cherries, strawberries, cabbages and
tomatoes.Strawberries were found to be most impacted (受影响) —95% of the 120 strawberries tested in 2022
contained PFAS pesticides. This was followed by 61% of 109 grapes and 56% of 121 cherries. The data makes
people more anxious and worried about food safety.
,
According to a research these chemicals are doing unknown harm to our health. “They’ve been linked to
increased rates of cancer,” says Evans, a researcher at the environmental charity Fidra. “We don’t have all that
information just yet. We have increasing research and evidence-building, but there are still so many chemicals that
we don’t understand the full health impacts of.” Considering their health, more and more people prefer buying the
food without ‘forever chemicals’.
The findings from PAN serve as an important wake-up call. The bad influence of PFAS on our fruits and
vegetables needs immediate attention and action, not just from governments but from all people involved in
bringing food from the farm to our tables.
PFAS are a group of human-made chemicals that didn’t exist on the planet a century ago and have now
polluted every single corner. No one wants to live with these harmful chemicals. So the very least we can do is to
ban (禁止) the use of PFAS.
PFAS pesticides are absolutely unnecessary for growing food. PAN is pushing the government to stop the use
第6页/共11页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司of 25 PFAS pesticides in the UK and increase support for farmers. It’s time to help them to use safer ways instead
of using these PFAS pesticides.
With some plastic food packaging also polluted with PFAS, and PFASpresent in UK drinking water and soil,
we need to develop a better understanding of the health risks associated with taking these ‘forever chemicals’ and
do everything we can to take them out of the food chain. And that would be a great win for shoppers, farmers and
the environment.
27. According to the research, what is the possible result of ‘forever chemicals’?
A. A zero increase in cancer rates. B. The change of government testing.
C. The unknown effects on human health. D. A big sale for the food with ‘forever chemical’.
28. What can we know from the passage?
A. PFAS can break down quickly in the environment.
B. The effect of PFAS on strawberries was less than on grapes.
C. Banning the use of PFAS is recommended to the UK government.
D. Plastic food packaging can help avoid the pollution caused by PFAS.
29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Forever Chemicals: More Actions Should Be Taken to Ban Them
.
B Forever Chemicals: The Ways to Protect the Environment
C. Forever Chemicals: Reducing Them in Growing Food
D. Forever Chemicals: How to Avoid Eating Them

Advertisers often use special techniques to get consumers (消费者) to buy products, services and ideas. Very
often, we are persuaded (劝说) to buy a product or service because of what we see on the television, hear on the
radio, or read on social media.
Advertising has encouraged the shift from needs-based to wants-based production. Advertising techniques that
get consumers to buy more to get greater discount (折扣), often attract consumers to buy what they do not need to
enjoy more benefits. For one, tech companies are constantly producing new products and their advertisements
highlight the positive features of the latest models, persuading consumers to throw away their old devices and buy
new ones. Similarly, advertising constantly promotes (推广) new trends and styles, encouraging people to discard
第7页/共11页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司their out-of-fashion items for trendier ones.
Advertising also encourages an addictive behaviour that results in repetitive buying. To persuade buyers to
,
repeat their purchase (购买) companies often use some attractive methods such as limited-time discounts,
promotions and coupons.Buyers who do not want to miss out on a good deal,would buy again even if they have no
need for the product.
Some may argue that advertising can play an important role in persuading people towards lasting living, and
leading a less wasteful lifestyle, such as in the case of advertising second-hand clothes. Advertising has also
successfully changed buyers’ opinions of second-hand clothes as “cheap” and “dirty”, promoting them as eco-
friendly and stylish. However, the promise of companies towards sustainability (可持续发展) remains low.
Advertising is still the main tool for companies to promote their brands, and ultimately make more money.
Still, many believe that effective advertising is the key driving force that enables mass-produced products to
be sold quickly, with even social media sales relying heavily on persuasive techniques to attract the users of social
media.However, some people believe that FOMO (fear of missing out) is an even more powerful force to persuade
buyers to spend on things they do not need. It is FOMOthat persuades people to join a long line to buy something
they probably have no need for, based on social media posts of purchases that friends have made.
Nowadays, people are spending more on things they do not need. However, advertising does not necessarily
result in us being more wasteful. It is a matter of personal choice. After all, there is just so much we can eat, wear
or use. Although advertisements may appear in front of us anytime and anywhere, we should need to correctly tell
the differences between what we need and what we want. Just keep a clear mind.
30. How has advertising encouraged the shift from needs-based to wants-based production?
A. By increasing the amount of advertising.
B. By providing more attractions to the consumers.
C. By highlighting the price of the latest products.
D. By telling companies to throw away out-of-fashion products.
31. The underlined word “addictive” in Paragraph 3 probably means “making people ________ something”
A. interested in trying B. unable to stop doing
C. worried about missing D. happy to throw away
32. The writer probably agrees that ________.
A. the misleading of advertising is the main reason for more waste
B. advertising fails to change buyers’ opinions about second-hand items
C. social media has more powerful force to persuade buyers than FOMO
D. FOMO can lead people to buy something that they might have no need for
第8页/共11页
学科网（北京）股份有限公司33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To introduce some useful advertising techniques.
B. To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of advertising.
C. To explain why advertising brings buyers a wasteful lifestyle.
D. To advise people to make right choices when facing advertisements.

The Surprising Benefits of Reading Aloud
Did your parents use to read a story to you at bed time? Have you read anything aloud to your friends? When
you recall those memories, do you feel a certain sense of closeness? For me, the answer is yes. After reading aloud,
I also feel my reading is so attractive to audiences.
There are two common reading habits: reading silently and reading aloud. Personally, I prefer reading aloud.
Last school year, I read aloud to some of my students. Soon I found they were fully involved in the story. When I
read to them with vocal variety (声音变化) and emotion, students were able to understand the personality of
characters.
Reading aloud allows others to hear the content (内容). It can improve our understanding of the text. This is
why in ancient Iraq and Syria more than 4,000 years ago, reading means “to cry out” or “to listen”.
Reading aloud can bring other benefits to us. According to a research, reading aloud can help us to remember
10% more vocabulary than silent reading. If readers have speech difficulties and cannot fully remember the words
they read aloud, reading aloud can help those readers to improve their memory. It was said that reading the words
to another person resulted in the highest verbal (言语) memory recall. By contrast, reading silently produced the
lowest verbal memory recall. Reading aloud can also help doctors to detect (测出) Alzheimer’s disease at an early
stage if the reading includes specific mistakes.
Someone may ask: If there are so many benefits, why do we still read silently? According to a study on the
effect of writing on the human brain and behaviours by Karenleigh Overmann, a professor at the University of
Bergen, Norway, she discovered that silent reading keeps up with the speed of thought much better when people
read while writing. Reading aloud will slow down the ability to read quickly because producing a sound needs
more time.
Reading silently and reading aloud both have their own advantages and disadvantages. We can choose the
suitable reading habit according to our different needs and situations.
