When Sonja Detrinidad opened her online shop selling houseplants, she didn't have
high hopes for it.But the opposite happened: She was flooded, shipping out 1,200
orders in June of 2020 alone.In the past year, Detrinidad sent out more than 70,000
plants.Her success is just one example of increased time at home leading to an
explosion in the houseplant industry.
“Plants are in fashion right now，” says Dr.Melinda Knuth, a researcher from the
University of Florida.“People who live in plant-rich environments report a higher
life satisfaction rating，” she says.“Adding more nature to our environment can
change our mood and how we think.” Plants can improve our state of mind in a few
ways but the biggest is by decreasing our level of cortisol, the stress hormone(激素)
in our body.
“Students who are around plants perform better academically than students who are
in a classroom without plants，” says Knuth.“This productivity also translates into
the workplace for adults.Our study showed that there was a 30% decrease in sick
leave for people who were in plant-rich workplaces.”
If you're among the groups of people who are enjoying the mental and physical health
benefits of surrounding yourself with plants, don't beat yourself up if one (or a few！)
doesn't make it.“Doctors practice medicine and lawyers practice law and you should
allow yourself the practice it takes to sustain a plant.Tending to plants is an exercise in
patience and learning.Be invested in taking care of it, but if it dies, go get another
one，” Detrinidad says.
31．What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Time to Replace Houseplants
B．Plants Boost Your Mood
C．Tips on Choosing Houseplants
D．Plants Brighten Your Home
考点2 文章大意题
●辨明题类
文章大意题要求考生在理解全文的基础上，从文中提取有效信息，概括、归纳
出文章的主旨大意、中心思想。此类题目没有明显的解题依据，是对文章深层
次的理解。
设问形式常有：
(1)The general/main idea of the passage is .
(2)What is the main theme/topic/idea of this/the passage/text?
(3)The passage/text is mainly about .
(4)What does the text/passage mainly focus on?
(5)The passage mainly focuses on .
●技法点拨
1．定位主题句确定文章大意
文章由段落组成，段落的中心思想服务于文章的中心思想，因此找到每个段落
的主题句，总结概括后便不难得出文章的主旨大意。
一般情况下，段落的主题句通常在该逻辑段落的首尾，但也有些难度较大的试
题会隐含在段落之中，此时要理解全文结构，找到支撑性细节内容。
以下为快速找到主题句的5 个小窍门：
(1)段落中出现表转折的词语(however, but, in fact, actually, while, on the contrary,
in contrast 等)时，其后的句子通常为主题句。
(2)首段出现疑问句时，对该句的回答很可能就是主题句。
(3)作者有意识地反复强调的观点，通常是主旨；反复出现的词语，一般为体现
文章主旨的关键词(主旨句通常包含关键词)。
(4)首段出现具体例子或假设时，例子或假设后的内容通常为主题句。
(5)表示总结或结论的句子常包含therefore, in short, conclude, conclusion, thus 等
词。
2．根据不同文体的结构和写作方法来定位主题句
(1)议论文主要是论述作者的某个观点，往往采用“总—分”或“总—分—总”
的模式，所以主题句常在第一段或最后一段。
(2)说明文则是说明一个事物的用途或制作过程，主题句一般在首段。
(3)记叙文一般没有明显的主题句，需要根据文中叙述的内容和线索来概括文章
大意，但是如果文章末段出现说理性的句子，则这个句子为主题句。

We all know fresh is best when it comes to food.However, most produce at the store
went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the
table.While farmer's markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey, Babylon Micro-
Farm (BMF) shortens it even more.
BMF is an indoor garden system.It can be set up for a family.Additionally, it could
serve a larger audience such as a hospital, restaurant or school.The innovative design
requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens.
Specifically, it's a farm that relies on new technology.By connecting through the
Cloud, BMF is remotely monitored.Also, there is a convenient app that provides
growing data in real time.Because the system is automated, it significantly reduces the
amount of water needed to grow plants.Rather than watering rows of soil, the system
provides just the right amount to each plant.After harvest, users simply replace the
plants with a new pre-seeded pod (容器) to get the next growth cycle started.
Moreover, having a system in the same building where it's eaten means zero
emissions (排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad.In addition, there's no
need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the
surrounding environment.
BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives.About half of them
walk or bike to work.Inside the office, they encourage recycling and waste reduction
by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic.“We are passionate about
reducing waste, carbon and chemicals in our environment ，” said a BMF
employee.
31．What does the text mainly talk about?
A．BMF's major strengths.
B．BMF's general management.
C．BMF's global influence.
D．BMF's technical standards.

Does your soul die a little every time you throw away unused food ？Mine
does.Maybe that feeling comes from growing up in South Africa, where the phrase
“there are children starving in Africa” was more of an uncomfortable reminder of
fact than a prayer at dinner time.
Food waste is a growing concern in the restaurant, supermarket, and supply chain
industries.From technological solutions to educational campaigns, food producers and
sellers are looking for ways to use more of what we're already growing.But last
month, one popular New York City restaurant tried a different way: It changed its
menu to exclusively(专门) offer food that would otherwise be thrown away.
For two weeks in March, Greenwich Village's Blue Hill restaurant was renamed
wastED, and served items like fried skate cartilage, a juice pulp burger, and a
dumpster diver's vegetable salad.Each dish was tailor-made to raise awareness
regarding food waste.
A study by the Food Waste Alliance determined that the average restaurant generates
33 pounds of food waste for every $1,000 in revenue(收入), and of that waste only
15.7% is donated or recycled.Up to 84.3% is simply thrown out.Restaurants like Silo
in the UK have experimented with zero-waste systems, but wastED took the concept
to its logical conclusion.
It should be noted that none of the items on wastED's menu was technically made
from garbage.Instead, all the ingredients(配料) used were examples of meat cuts and
produce that most restaurants would never consider serving.Things like kale ribs, fish
collars, rejected sweet potatoes, and cucumber butts were all re-appropriated and, with
the help of a number of good chefs, turned into excellent cuisine.
Though wastED received enthusiastic reviews, it was designed from the start as a
short-lived experiment; Blue Hill has since returned to its regular menu.Nevertheless,
it serves as a reminder that there are many ways to address problems of sustainability,
and that you can make an amazing meal out of almost anything.
34．What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A．Why the ingredients were used.
B．Which dishes were best liked.
C．What the dishes were made of.
D．Where the ingredients were bought.

Recently, African ports are expected to welcome a unique border-patrol( 巡逻)
“team”—Giant African Pouched Rats wearing small red vests.Relying on their
remarkable sense of smell, they are about to play a crucial role in the fight against
illegal wildlife trade.
In regions such as West Africa, the rich wildlife resources attract enormous
tourists.However, poaching(偷猎) and smuggling(偷运) activities are pushing some
species to the danger of extinction.Poachers, driven by huge profits, either capture
animals for the illegal pet trade or cruelly kill elephants, rhinos, etc.to obtain ivory
and rhino horns.These precious items are then smuggled to other countries for sale,
severely disturbing local biodiversity.
Isabelle Szott, a behavioral ecologist, previously cooperated with the organization
APOPO in Tanzania, which has successfully trained these rats for various tasks
before, like detecting dangerous weapons and some infectious diseases.Given their
excellent olfactory(嗅觉) ability, APOPO believes the rats also have great potential in
port prevention and control.
Szott's team carefully selected and trained 11 rats.In a specially-made training box in
the laboratory, researchers placed different smell samples to teach the rats to identify
the smells of poached animals.Each time a rat accurately detected the target smell and
signaled, it received delicious food as a reward.After training, these rats can not only
recognize the smells of elephant tusks, rhino horns and African blackwood, but also
precisely distinguish them from 146 other smells.
Lab training is just the first step.Some rats then underwent field drills in simulated
warehouses and real ports.When these rats get too old to work, they will “retire”
honorably and enjoy their remaining years surrounded by fruits, vegetables, and dried
fish.The involvement of Giant African Pouched Rats is expected to bring new hope to
tackling wildlife poaching and smuggling.
1．Why are these rats a good choice for border-patrol?
A．They are out of extinction.
B．They are sensitive to the smell.
C．They can maintain local biodiversity.
D．They can distract poachers' attention.
2．What tasks have the African Pouched Rats been trained for before?
A．Detecting threatening arms.
B．Controlling wildlife products.
C．Protecting tourists in West Africa.
D．Identifying different kinds of fruits.
3．How did the researchers train the 11 rats in the laboratory?
A．They satisfy the rats' appetite as bonus.
B．They taught the rats to fit in the real fields.
C．They let the rats play with different samples.
D．They led the rats to track the poachers' smells.
4．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．New Hope Brought by APOPO for the Rats in Red Vests
B．Measures Taken to Prevent Poaching and Smuggling
C．The Remarkable Life of Giant African Pouched Rats
D．A New Force in Fighting Wildlife Smuggling

“I was wondering if Patrick would sing The Power of Love during the service on
Thanks-giving Day，” the community youth director asked in a message left on our
answering machine.
My wife Catherine and I struggled to contain our excitement about our five-year-old
son's first solo( 独唱) ．Catherine carefully explained the possibility, reminding
Patrick how beautifully he sang, telling him how much fun it would be.Patrick
himself seemed less convinced.“You know, Mom，” he said, “sometimes when
I have to do something important, I get kind of scared.”
Grown-ups feel that way, too, we told him, but the decision was left to him.He took
only a few minutes.“Okay，” Patrick said.“I'll do it.” From the time he was a
baby, Patrick has enjoyed an unusual passion for music.By age four, he could pound
out several bars of Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries on the piano.Still, I could hardly
imagine myself, at age five, singing into a microphone before hundreds of
people.When Thanks-giving Day arrived, my expectations were limited.
Catherine, our daughter Melanie and I sat in darkness as a spotlight found my son,
standing alone at the microphone.He was dressed in white, with a pair of angel
wings.Slowly, confidently, Patrick hit every note.As his voice washed over the people,
he seemed a true angel.There was eternity(永恒)in Patrick's voice that night, a beauty
rich enough to bring heavy tears to my eyes.
His song was soon over, and at my side, Catherine brushed away tears and Melanie
sobbed, too.Outside, I received congratulations from fellow community members.I
found my son who looked at me with curiosity.“You're crying？Why, Dad？”
“I have to cry, for nothing else but your singing.”
Patrick smiled proudly and flew into my arms.
“I don't understand，” my son said into my shoulder, “But maybe you do have
your reason to cry.”

Turning used cooking oil into pleasant smelling soap might sound like magic.But
that's what Janetti Francischi has been doing since 2020.Dispensing the soap in her
community, Francischi has not only made residents in her neighbourhood use the
valuable products but also contributed to the environment by repurposing a common
waste item.
Inspired by her mother, who was a druggist, Francischi pursued a bachelor's degree in
biomedical sciences and a master's degree in pharmacology(药理学) at the University
of Sao Paulo.She also earned a PhD there.After 32 years as a professor at the Federal
University of Minas Gerais, where she taught more than 5,000 students, Francischi
retired in 2017.
Seeing the mess of used oil in the kitchen and heavy waste from community oil
pollution, Francischi felt an urge to help her community to change the situation.Based
on what she had learnt, Francischi started producing bars of soap from used cooking
oil.
Francischi tried the soap-making process at her home.The first step was to extract the
oil with a cloth to remove any residues(残渣)．After that, she heated water to near
boiling point and added sodium hydroxide(氢氧化钠), mixing it very well until they
dissolved.Then, she added the cooking oil.This is the most challenging part because
the mixture must be stirred with a stick for 40 minutes.To increase foaming and
fragrance, she also added some washing powder.Then she poured it into a plastic
container, and cut it hours later.
Francischi collected cooking oil first from her family, friends and neighbors and later
from small businesses, such as street food sellers.She distributed the soap in the
community.People came, brought their bottles of oil and returned later for their
soap.She also partnered with the non-governmental organization Seu Vizinho in a
poor neighborhood where even basic items can be considered a luxury.She designed
four workshop sessions last summer to teach more people, where the participants
were provided with all the materials.Francischi did this work as a volunteer.She hopes
to continue with this project for the rest of her life.
9．What does the word “dispensing” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A．Giving out.
B．Taking in.
C．Putting away.
D．Using up.
10．What inspired Francischi to make soap at home?
A．Her mother's influence.
B．Her academic background.
C．Her wish for new career.
D．Her concern for pollution.
11．What is the last but one paragraph mainly about?
A．The inspiration of recycling.
B．The process of making soaps.
C．The way of collecting oil.
D．The plan of helping people.
12．What may Francischi do in the future?
A．Do her design work.
B．Develop new products.

A tiny, soft, and flexible robot that can crawl through earthquake ruins to find trapped
victims or travel inside the human body to deliver medicine may seem like science
fiction, but an international team led by researchers at the Pennsylvania State
University (Penn State) are pioneering such adaptable robots by integrating flexible
electronics with magnetically(有磁力地) controlled motion.
Soft robotics, unlike traditional rigid robots, are made from flexible materials that
copy the movement of living organisms.This flexibility makes them ideal for
navigating tight spaces, such as debris in a disaster zone or the complicated pathways
of the human body.However, integrating sensors and electronics into these flexible
systems has posed a significant challenge, according to Huanyu Cheng, Jr.Memorial
Associate Professor of Engineering Science and Mechanics at Penn State.
“Even though we designed the electronics to be flexible, their rigidity is still
hundreds to thousands of times greater than the soft robotic material ，” Cheng
said.“To overcome this, we distributed the electronics across the structure, reducing
their impact on movement.”
Another challenge was blocking unwanted electrical interference(电子干扰), which
can disrupt how an electronic device or system works.This interference comes from
outside sources, like other electronics or wireless signals.Such interference would
prevent movement and affect sensor performance.
Magnetic fields are crucial for controlling motion, but they can also disrupt electronic
signals.Researchers had to carefully design the electronic layout to minimize these
interactions, ensuring that the sensors remained functional even in the presence of
strong magnetic fields.
With the magnetic interference minimized, the robots can be guided remotely using
electromagnetic fields.Additionally, integrated sensors allow them to react
autonomously to environmental cues.In search-and-rescue, for example, they are
smart enough to navigate by detecting heat or obstacles.In medical applications, they
might respond to pH changes or pressure, ensuring precise drug delivery or accurate
sample collection.
“If we can make these robots even smaller, they could be injected into blood
vessels( 血管) to treat cardiovascular diseases or deliver medication directly to
affected areas，” Cheng said.“That would open up entirely new possibilities for
non-invasive medical treatments.”
13．In which aspect is Cheng's robot different from traditional ones?
A．Its material.
B．Its design.
C．Its usage.
D．Its structure.
14．Why did researchers distribute flexible electronics across the robot's structure?
A．To improve heat detection.
B．To make robots move smoothly.
C．To reduce impact on robots.
D．To enhance electromagnetic response.
15．What does Cheng stress about the robots in the last paragraph?
A．Their drawback.
B．Their feature.
C．Their potential.
D．Their popularity.
16．What can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Future of Medical Treatments

In southern Utah's rough land, Rebecca Fielding sat on the spot where her brother,
Jonathan, had lost his life at the age of 19.Jonathan, a passionate photographer and
nature explorer from Blue Springs, Missouri, had moved to Orem, Utah, six months
before his untimely death.On January 27, while capturing the beauty of Moonscape
Overlook, a cliff(悬崖) broke beneath him, and he fell more than 200 feet.
Consumed by sorrow, Rebecca drove 15 hours from Missouri to Utah, seeking
comfort at the place where her best friend and constant source of unconditional love
had been taken from her.In her darkest moment, she left a journal at the site with a
heartfelt note about Jonathan, describing him as “a soul too pure for this world, a
kid too fearless for his own good, and a friend whose kindness knew no bounds.”
The journal's journey began when Sherrie Joyce Miller, a hiker who recognized
Jonathan's Dame from the news, found it near Utah's Highway 24.She left her own
note and returned it to its original location.Rebecca, unaware of Sherrie's actions, left
a third journal in June, this time with a photo album, when she revisited the site.
The first journal had been picked up by a traveler who thought it was a random
notebook and left it near the highway, where strangers began adding their tributes(致

The air around us contains a powerful solution for making agriculture more
sustainable.Researchers at Stanford University and King Fahd University of
Petroleum and Minerals in Saudi Arabia have developed a device that can produce
ammonia(氨)—a key component of fertilizer—using wind energy.The approach they
developed, if perfected, might remove the need for a century-old method that
produces ammonia by combining nitrogen and hydrogen at high pressures and
temperatures.The older method consumes 2% of global energy and contributes 1% of
annual carbon dioxide release from its reliance on natural gas.
“This breakthrough allows us to use the nitrogen in our air and produce ammonia
sustainably，” said study senior author Richard Zare, professor of chemistry at the
Stanford School of Humanities and Sciences.
To design their device, the researchers studied how different environmental factors,
like wind speed, salt levels, and acidity affect ammonia production, and also looked at
how the size of water droplets, the concentration of the solution, and the contact of
water with materials that don't react with water impact the process.Lastly, they tested
the best mix of iron oxide and an acid polymer to determine the ideal conditions for
producing ammonia.
The Stanford team's process applies the surrounding air to get nitrogen and hydrogen
from water vapor(蒸气)．By passing air through a mesh(网格) coated with chemicals
to facilitate the necessary reaction, the researchers produced enough ammonia with a
sufficiently high concentration to serve as a hydroponic fertilizer in greenhouse
settings.Unlike traditional methods, the new technique operates at room temperature
and standard atmospheric pressure.
In laboratory experiments, the team demonstrated further potential by recycling water,
achieving ammonia concentrations sufficient to fertilize plants grown in a greenhouse
after just two hours.
The device is 2～3 years away from being market-ready, according to study co-author
Chanbasha Basheer of King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals.Meanwhile,
the researchers plan to use increasingly large mesh systems to produce more
ammonia.“There's much room to develop this，” Basheer said.
5．What is the significance of the new ammonia production method?
A．It requires high pressures.
B．It leads to using less fertilizer.
C．It employs fuels extensively.
D．It reduces environmental impacts.
6．What does paragraph 3 talk about?
A．Ways of testing the amount of ammonia.
B．The complexity of the production approach.
C．The preparations for designing the device.
D．Examples of water reaction with materials.
7．How does the new device produce ammonia?
A．By applying natural gas to achieve high temperatures.
B．By using wind energy to draw air through a mesh.

I instruct student teachers during their practicum( 实习课) at Brooklyn College.My
fellow student teaching advisers, student teachers, and I routinely discuss if what we
are teaching future educators is sufficient.We still lose many teachers in their first two
to five years of service.That tells us we need to do more to welcome new teachers into
the profession—so says Tabitha Dell Angelo, dean of the School of Education at the
College of New Jersey.
Dell Angelo believes that it's important for new teachers to have mentors(导师) with
whom they can cooperate and get honest feedback and guidance.She adds that this
shouldn't be a one-way relationship.Mentors and administrators also need to be open
and encourage new ideas that young teachers may bring to the table.
“Technologies, information delivery systems, and what we think we know have
always been changing ，” says Jeremy Glazer, assistant professor at Rowan
University.Yet, what doesn't change, adds Glazer, is that new teachers will continue to
need deep knowledge in their content area, the ability to think critically and
systematically, and the ability to engage students in learning.The need to be a critical
consumer of information, particularly in the era of social media, remains important.
Currently, a team of student teachers in the childhood program at Brooklyn College,
are experimenting regularly with AI tools like MagicSchool and ChatGPT to plan
lessons.Student teachers at Brooklyn College also use online resources such as
Culturally Situated Design Tools to ensure that the lessons they are designing are
culturally situated.This integration of AI and other tech tools is supporting college
students at Brooklyn College to use these instructional planning aids effectively.
For these student teachers, the goal is to gain not only competency and fluency in
these tools, but also the in-demand career skills that they can highlight in their
teaching career.We must prepare teachers for their first year, while preparing new
teachers for a career within a world that is different than it is now.
9．What does Dell Angelo think is essential for new teachers' development?
A．Their relationship with fellow workmates.
B．The job content of their first year of service.
C．Professional support from experienced teachers.
D．The new ideas they have about their new career.
10．What is Glazer's attitude to traditional teaching skills?
A．He thinks they are still important.
B．He believes they are irrelevant today.
C．He thinks of them as secondary to technology.
D．He suggests they need to be replaced by new methods.
11．Why does the author mention AI tools in paragraph 4?
A．To praise student teachers' progress.
B．To highlight student teachers' efforts.
C．To show the difficulties in teaching.
D．To stress the necessity of technology.
12．What is a suitable title for the text?
A．Welcoming Changes in the Classroom
B．Exploring the New Future of Education
C．Supporting New Teachers in Their Careers
D．Introducing Technology to Teacher Training
