An Unforgettable Illustration
One day, Mr. Brown, an expert (专家) in time management, was speaking to a group of students. To drive
home a point, he used an illustration (示例) the students would never forget.First, he pulled out a jar and set it on the table in front of him. He also produced about ten egg-sized rocks and
carefully placed them, one at a time, into the jar. When the jar was filled to the top and no more rocks would fit
inside, he asked, “Is this jar full?
Everyone in the class yelled, “Yes.” The time management expert replied, “Really?” He then dumped some
gravel (碎石) in and shook the jar, causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the spaces between the
big rocks. He then asked the group once more, “Is this jar full?”
By this time the class was on to him. “Probably not,” one of them answered. “Good!” He replied. Then he
started dumping some sand in the jar and it went into all the spaces left between the rocks and the gravel. He asked
the same question, “Is this jar full?”
“No!” the class shouted. Once again he said, “Good.” Then he brought some water and began to pour (倒出) it
in until the jar was filled to the top. Then he looked at the class and asked, “What is the point of this illustration?”
One student raised his hand and said, “The point is, no matter how full your timetable is, if you try really hard you
can always fit some more things in it!”
“No,” the speaker replied, “that’s not the point. The truth this illustration teaches us is if you don’t put the big
rocks in first, you’ll never get them in at all. What are the big rocks in your life? Time with your loved ones, your
study your dreams, teaching or helping others. Remember to put these important things in first or you’ll never get
them in at all.”
24. Who is Mr. Brown?
A. A group leader of the students.
B. A university physics teacher.
C. A time management expert.
.
D A rock and gravel provider.

C. Setting up timetables first before doing things.

Hasna Kourda grew up on an island in Tunisia where her grandmother taught her the strong values of looking
after old things. Clothes were reused and repurposed continuously, Kourda says. A large bag made from old clothes
by her grandmother is still used by her parents today. Kourda has brought these values into a project that she hopes
could change the relationship people have with their clothes—and benefit the environment in the process.
The clothing industry—from material sourcing（来源）to washing and waste is considered to be responsible
for 8-10% of global carbon emissions（碳排放）, according to the UN. As the world races to meet its promises to
limit carbon emissions to net zero by the middle of the century, the clothing industry has a huge job ahead of it to
play its part.
Kourda is among those who hope to help do that. Her way is to encourage people to go looking for new ways
of using the clothing they already have rather than buying something new. Her company, Save Your Wardrobe, uses
technology to help people go shopping in their own wardrobes. The company uses computer software to build a
digital image of a user’s wardrobe people can either take pictures of clothes or allow.
Save Your Wardrobe to check their online shopping history. It then wardrobe advises how to create new
clothes as well as connecting users to repair and alteration（更改）services, and environmentally friendly dry
cleaning.
In October the company began to work with the German company Zalando, which will use Save Your
Wardrobe technology to offer customers aftercare for their clothes.
“The job,” says Kourda, “is to use technology to guide users to reconnect with the clothes of their wardrobe
and make the most out of it, finally encouraging them to buy less and better”.
Save Your Wardrobe is just one of a huge number of companies using new technology and different business
models to try to overhaul（全面改革）the industry. From encouraging new ways of consuming clothes, to making
it possible for clothes to be recycled at the end of their life, the clothing world could look very different by the time
we reach 2045.27. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?
A. Kourda hoped to save money for her project.
B. Kourda’s family has valued old things in life.
C. Kourda’s grandma reused clothes to help others.
D. Kourda’s parents are too poor to buy new clothes.
28. What’s Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. How Kourda’s company helps to limit carbon emissions.
B. Why Kourda runs her company Save Your Wardrobe.
C. Why Kourda’s company works with other companies.
D. How Kourda teaches people to do online shopping.
.
29 What might the writer probably agree?
A. People will stick to old traditions of consuming clothing.
B. Customers might need less aftercare for their clothes soon.
C. Save Your Wardrobe will create more clothes in the future.
D. The clothing industry might be more environmentally friendly.

The Teenager Brain
Teenagers have always been known to do unusual, even dangerous things. This was thought to be because of
the “foolishness of youth.” Now, scientists have studied the physical development of the brain in more detail. Their
discoveries have led to a new theory（理论）of why teens act this way.
A Work in Progress
Recently scientists discovered that only during adolescence（青春期）do our brains truly “grow up”. During
this time, they go through great changes. These “changes” were once thought to be finished by about age 12. Now,
scientists have found that our brains continue to change until age 25. Such changes make us better at balancing
impulses（平衡冲动）with following rules. But a still-developing brain can hardly do this well. The result,
scientists claim, is the unpredictable behavior seen in teenagers.
________
The studies show that teens are more likely to take risks（冒险）and behave in extreme ways. Luckily, the
news isn't all negative. As brain scientist B. J. Casey points out, the teen brain inspires such behavior in order to
help teens prepare for adult life.
One way the brain does this is by changing the way teens look at risks and rewards. Researchers found that
when teens think about rewards, their brains create more pleasure than an adult brain would. Researchers believethis makes the rewards seem more important than the risks, and makes teens feel the excitement of new experiences
more keenly than adults do.
Research into the teen brain also found that it makes social connections seem especially rewarding. As such,
teens have a strong need to meet new people. Scientists suggest this is because as teens, we begin to realize our
friends may one day control the world we live in. Because it is still developing, a teen brain can change to deal with
new situations. So, it connects social rewards with more pleasure. In this way, the brain encourages teens to have a
wide circle of friends, which is believed to make us more successful in life.
A Finished Brain
Unluckily, this search for greater rewards can sometimes lead teens to make bad decisions. However, it also
means that teens are more likely, and less afraid, to try new things or to be independent. The scientists’ findings
suggest that in the long run, the impulses of the teen brain are what help teens leave their parents’ care and live their
own lives successfully.
30. Which of the following about adolescent’s brain is true?
A. It stops growing almost at twelve.
B. It is going through a lot of changes.
C. It does many things in a perfect way.
D. It is better than an adult brain with rules.
31. Which could be the best heading for Paragraph 3, 4 & 5?
A. Pleasure Explorers. B. Brain Researchers.
C. Decision Makers. D. Future Planners.
32. What does the word “keenly” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Calmly. B. Slowly. C. Strongly. D. Strangely.
33. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The teenager brains are more likely to be dependent.
B. The impulses of the teen brain may benefit teens’ growth.
C. The effect of teens’ behavior in extreme ways is negative.
D. The hope to control the world leads teens to meet new people.

阅读短文, 根据短文内容回答问题。
Bob Smith, a National Teacher Award WinnerWhat does it take to win the hearts and minds of Grade 10 students? Ask Jenny Fitchette, Grade 10 student at
Lester Pearson High, and you will get a warm reply: “The number one thing is a good teacher.”
Jenny should know this well. Look at her timetable and you will find that she is studying the usual subjects of
maths, English, biology and art this term. It’s not so much the subjects that keep her coining to school each day. It’s
her biology teacher, Mr. Smith, who keeps her eager and ready to learn. So Jenny recently found time to finish a
1000-word paper in which she nominated （提名）her teacher, Mr. Bob Smith for the Teacher of the Year Award.
Only students may nominate someone for the award.
“I can’t really say why Mr. Smith is such a good teacher.” says Jenny. “But we always enjoy the time when
Mr. Smith stays with us. I mean, the little fish really help us in our biology studies. We can actually watch the fish
growing and study them in the classroom. It’s hands-on, which makes his class special. Mr. Smith always tells us
that we learn best when we get in there and work with things.”
Mr. Smith says he was very surprised and honoured when he heard that Jenny had nominated him for the
award. “It’s really the students who should be getting the award,” he says. “It’s my job to bring meaningful and
interesting things for them to study. It’s not I, but the students who are showing excellence.”
When asked what makes his students love school so much, Mr. Smith stops and thinks deeply. I think it comes
down to respect. I respect my students and I see my job as serving them in a way. I work for them to help them
open up their minds and discover things that matter to them.”
Jenny says that you never know what to expect from day to day in her biology class. One day, Mr. Smith
might bring his electric guitar, and for the whole class, explain and show the effects of music on plant growth. He
never allows anyone any time to be lazy.
34. What does Jenny think is the number one thing to win the hearts of students?
