Doug Falter, an American photographer, returned home, teary-eyed and exhausted. He pouted online that
evening, "I lost my baby." That "baby" referred to a surfboard that had been custom-made for him. Hours earlier, a
big wave had separated Falter from this prized possession.
Months passed with no sign of the surfboard. Falter saved money to buy a new surfboard for $ 1,500. But
Falter never completely forgot the surfboard, which - six months later and more than 5,000 miles away from where
it disappeared-floated to the southern Philippines.The local fisherman who found it didn't have much use of his
unusual catch of the day, so he sold the board for s 40 to Giovanne Branzuela, an elementary school teacher.
Branzuela hoped to leam to surf and one day share the skill with his students,who regularly accompany him on
beach clean-ups.The once-blue board had faded to a pale straw color during its journey, but its distinctive markings were still
there: two elephants, one at either end. Underneath the elephants were the words "Doug Falter Surfboard".
Branzuela couldn't believe it on realizing how far the surfboard had traveled. He reached Falter online and sent
him a photo of the surfboard. Falter was shocked to learn that his "baby"had drifted(漂流) across the world's largest
ocean and survived. He was overjoyed.
But the story was far from over. Falter wanted to thank Branzuela with some surfing supplies for his kind act,
but the teacher asked for school supplies instead, such as backpacks for his students and materials to help them
learn English.
Falter said it made him raise money for the kids. So far, he has collected $ 2,500,which he has used to buy and
ship maps, puzzles, classroom posters, textbooks, and workbooks.

According to a survey, the waste of food on the dining table occupies 10% of the total grain output. Last week
Meituan co-published a proposal with a number of business organizations, calling on restaurants to stop food waste
and help develop new eating habits for customers. “Restaurants should use official accounts on social media and
live-streaming to promote and advocate food-saving actions,” the proposal said.
Meituan and the organizations are advocating that merchants offer guidance for consumers, includingreminding them during the ordering process about the taste of the ingredients, portion sizes and other information
about the dishes, to help them avoid food waste due to misleading information.
Catering associations in more than 18 provinces have also joined the campaign to remove food waste. The
Wuhan Catering Association proposed an “N-1” ordering code for restaurants in which a group of 10 diners would
only order enough for nine people. More food is only brought to the table if required. It has inspired people to
rethink their relationship with food and waste.
On Friday, the China Cuisine Association announced that it had teamed up with Ele. me, a food delivery
platform, to launch a “ half-dish plan", encouraging restaurants to provide customers with the option to order
smaller portions. Besides, customers are encouraged to take their leftovers home.
To reduce food waste on social media platforms, some popular video platforms have stepped up content
reviews of food-related live streams and implemented regulation of online eating shows. Now, if users search
certain keywords, such as “eating show" or “competitive eaters", a cautionary message pops up to remind them to
cherish food and keep a reasonable diet.
8. What is the purpose of the proposal mentioned in the passage?
A. To monitor food sales on social media and live-streaming.
B. To expand the business and competitive ability of Meituan.
C. To encourage restaurants to take measures to reduce food waste.
D. To promote cooperation between Meituan and other organizations.
9. How is Paragraph 3 developed?
A. By doing a survey. B. By offering analysis.
C. By making comparisons. D. By giving an example.
10. What is the suggestion for consumers in the passage?
A. Purchasing their favorite food. B. Buying proper amounts of food.
C. Following some competitive eaters. D. Leaving their leftovers in the restaurant.
11. What does the underlined phrase “pops up” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Appears unexpectedly. B. Spreads widely.
C. Moves quickly. D. Fades slowly.
D
Findings of an international team of researchers from Japan and China suggest that geese might have been the
first poultry species to have been domesticated (驯养) by humans—as far back as 7,000 years ago.
Scientists have long held different opinions on the history of the domestication of birds, with a belief that it
was chickens that were the first to be domesticated. In 2014, Chinese researchers reported ancient DNA taken fromthe earliest archaeological chicken bone discovery in China, suggesting chickens were domesticated in northern
China as early as 10,000 years ago.
But the researchers behind the latest findings say that the 2014 study lacks firm evidence. In the new study, the
team unearthed the archaeological site of Tianluoshan, a 7,000-year-old rice cultivation village in the lower Yangtze
River valley in what is today known as East China’s Zhejiang province. They found a total of 232 goose bones at
the site. The inhabitants of the village were hunter-gatherers.
The researchers used multiple approaches to study the bones, and found evidence of domestication.
Four bones were from goslings (幼鹅) ranging from eight to 16 weeks old, suggesting they hatched near the
site. Geese were domesticated from wild geese. These migratory birds fly to northern Siberia to breed (繁殖) after
the spring and then fly south for the winter, according to researchers from the Zhejiang Provincial Institute of
Cultural Relics and Archaeology. They said the goslings were too young to have flown in from elsewhere. At the
time, Tianluoshan did not have the conditions to be a natural breeding place for wild geese, so it follows that the
goslings were born after domestication.
The researchers also analyzed the chemical makeup of adult goose bones, which contained evidence of the
water they drank. Their analysis indicated that the adult geese also seemed to have been locally bred, for they were
all roughly the same size. Carbon dating also showed that the bones belonged to geese that lived about 7,000 years
ago.
Researchers say ancient DNA analysis is required in further studies to investigate which species were bred to
become local geese populations.
12. Where did the researchers find the goose bones?
A. In Tianluoshan. B. In northern China.
C. In northern Siberia. D. In the upper Yangtze river valley.
13. What can we learn about the goslings from the study?
A. Their parents were wild geese.
B. They were probably raised by humans.
C. They flew to Tianluoshan for winter.
D. They were too young and had to stay.
14. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 5 and Paragraph 6?
A. The result of the study. B. The importance of the study.
C. The process of domestication. D. The evidence of domestication.
15. What’s the purpose of the passage?
A. To show how geese were domesticated by humans.B. To prove that chickens were not the first to be domesticated.
C. To show a new study on the history of the birds’ domestication.
D. To introduce how the geese were domesticated from wild geese.

My teenage son, Jordan, always complained about having to be home earlier than all his friends. He would tell
me that he was already seventeen, but still had a curfew (宵禁). He believed he was practically an adult. I pointed
out that he was not an adult as he was still in high school.
“You don’t trust me!” he yelled. Before I continued, he rolled his eyes, slammed the door and walked away. I
sighed. How could I make Jordan see that I only wanted to keep him safe?
I decided to go for a walk, hoping the December air would clear my head. I opened the front door and nearly
stepped on her: a small black cat, just like a meatball. “Hi, Meatball,” I said, bringing her into my arms. I walked
back in, touching her neck gently. Meatball seemed happy enough to come in the house, but after an hour or two,
she sat by the door, meowing to go back outside.
“Why won’t she just stay in with us all the time?” Nathan, my youngest son asked.
I explained to him that she was happy here but she liked being able to come and go as she pleased.
“That must be nice,” Jordan muttered from the other room, complaining why the cat, not him, could come and
go. He even asked me to give Meatball a curfew.
Meatball became a regular.
One night, temperatures were unusually low. Meatball stood at the door, meowing to go outside.
I shook my head at her, afraid that she might freeze to death. She stared at me and meowed again. I patted her
head, “I know you’re not happy, but it’s for your own good.”
“Mom’s not being mean to you,” Nathan told the cat. “She’s just trying to keep you from turning into a frozen
meatball.” We both laughed at his joke.
The next morning, I couldn’t find Meatball. I asked the kids if anyone had seen her.
