    It has always been thught that when it cmes t trnades (龙卷风), the mst peaceful place is the center: the eye f the strm. But a pht taken this week in the small Canadian twn, Three Hills, Alberta, suggests that there is perhaps n place mre peaceful than inside the calm mind f Theunis Wessels.
    It all started when Mr. Wessels’ wife, Cecilia, was warned by their nine-year-ld daughter that he was cutting the grass in their yard while a vilent trnad appeared in the distance. When her husband refused t cme inside, saying it was mving away frm them, Cecilia tk a pht t shw her parents the strm. The pht, which has been shared widely n scial media, is a masterclass in calmness.
    In it, sckless Mr. Wessels, dressed casually in summer shrts and sunglasses, is seen never being upset by the disastrus clumn f clud. “I tk the picture just t shw my mum and dad in Suth Africa, ‘Lk, there’s a trnad,’ and nw everyne is like, ‘why is yur husband cutting the grass?’” Cecilia tld the Times Clnist.
    When asked later abut the trnad’s apprach t him, Mr. Wessels respnded, “I was keeping an eye n it,” seeming as cl as his gardening style and attracting mre than a little respect. “Alberta, Canada,” wrte ne admiring Twitter user, “where men face the elements and d what needs t be dne.” A writer fr Esquire magazine struck a pensive nte: “I can understand Theunis,” Peter Wade admitted, “smetimes when the wrld is raging (肆虐) utside, the nly thing yu can d is keep yur small area inside.”
    Hw is Paragraph 1 develped?
    A. By listing theries.B. By giving examples.
    C. By analyzing causes. D. By making cmparisns.
    25. Why did Cecilia take the pht?
    A. T pst it n scial media. B. T recrd her husband’s heric act.
    C. T infrm her parents f the trnad. D. T prve what is the mst peaceful place.
    26. Which may make Mr. Wessels respected?
    A. His way f gardening. B. His calmness in the face f a trnad.
    C. His bravery in fighting the trnad. D. His rich knwledge abut trnades.
    27. What is the mst suitable title fr the passage?
    A. The main features f trnades B. The man wh ignred a trnad
    C. Surprising ways t survive a trnad D. A picture which caused heated discussin
    C
    3D printing is becming mre and mre ppular. We are nw able t create things we need very quickly and easily using 3D printers. But can yu imagine printing fd?
    Sme scientists are trying t revlutinize the dining experience by ding this. They hpe that having a 3D printer in the kitchen will be as cmmn as the micrwave ven r blender.
    Scientists say that it’ll be quite easy: yu simply have t select a recipe and put the raw fd “inks” int the printer. Yu can als mdify the instructins t make the fd exactly hw yu want it. This means that it wuld be very quick and easy t create tasty and nutritius meals.
    Using 3D printers t create yur meals wuld als be saving the envirnment. There wuld be less need fr traditinal grwing, transprting and packaging prcesses as fd prductin wuld be a lt mre efficient. Fr example, alternative ingredients(原料) such as prteins frm algae, beetrt leaves and insects culd be cnverted int tasty prducts.
    Printing fd culd als help peple wh suffer frm dysphasia (a swallwing disrder). They culd prgram the printer t print sfter versins f their favrite fds s that they wuld nt have truble in swallwing them.
    Hwever, sme peple think that a future f 3D fd printing wuld be a disaster. It culd take away many jbs, including thse frm grwing, transprting and packaging fd. Imagine a wrld where there was n need fr farming r grwing crps and the same tastes culd be printed frm a raw “fd ink”. Likewise, traditinal cafes and restaurants might lse business. Als, there are cncerns abut the nutritinal value f printed fd: is it really pssible t get the nutrients we need frm fd-based inks and gels(凝胶)?
    What’s mre, cking and eating tgether with family and friends has lng been a traditinal and enjyable activity. It is hard t imagine a wrld where the pleasure f cking is dead and meals can be created at the tuch f a buttn.
    28. Which f the fllwing best describes 3D fd printing?
    A. Quick and ppular.B. Sft and cnvenient.
    C. Nutritius and tasty.D. Easy and efficient.
    29. Why d sme think that 3D fd printing wuld be a disaster?
    A. Traditinal fd wuld disappear.B. Many peple culd lse their jbs.
    C. It wuld affect the peple’s health.D. We culd all eat the same fd.
    30. What can we infer frm the passage?
    A. 3D fd printing will replace traditinal cking.B. 3D printing fd can treat dysphasia.
    C. It wuld hurt ur traditin f fd culture. D. 3D fd printing wuld be a failure.
    31. Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the text?
    A. 3D fd “printing”: cming t the kitchen B. Can 3D printing create everything?
    C. 3D printing fd will be in fashin!D. The disadvantage f 3D fd printing
    D
    A new internatinal study published in PLOS Bilgy suggests that the ppularity f tigers, lins, plar bears and thers may actually cntribute t their dwnfall. The researchers used a cmbinatin f nline investigatins, schl questinnaires, z websites and cartn films t identify the 10 mst belved animals. The tp three were tigers, lins and elephants.
    “I was surprised t see that althugh these 10 animals are the mst belved, a majr danger faced by nearly all f the misdirect killing by humans, especially frm hunting,” said William Ripple, a distinguished prfessr f frest eclgy at Oregn State University and a c-authr n the study. “This killing by humans seems sadly irnic (讽刺的) t me, as these are sme f ur mst belved wild animals.”
    Many f these animals are s frequently described in pp culture and marketing materials that they may frm an inaccurate “virtual ppulatin” that is ding better in the media than in nature, nted lead authr Franck Curchamp f the University f Paris. The researchers fund, fr example, that the average French citizen will see mre virtual lins thrugh phts, cartns, lgs and brands in ne mnth than wild lins left in West Africa.
    “Unknwingly, cmpanies using giraffes r plar bears fr marketing purpses maybe actively cntributing t the false belief that these animals are nt at risk f dying ut, and therefre nt in need f cnservatin,” Curchamp said. He suggested in the paper that cmpanies using images f endangered animals fr marketing purpses prvide infrmatin t prmte their cnservatin, and perhaps part f their prfits fr prtectin f the animals.
    Nearly half f the ty animals sld in the United States n Amazn were ne f the 10 belved animals, while in France sme 800,000 “Sphie the giraffe” baby tys were sld last year—mre than eight times the number f giraffes living in Africa.
    “The appearance f these belved animals in stres, in mvies, n televisin, and n a variety f prducts seems t be tricking the public int believing they are ding kay,” Ripple said. “If we dn't wrk tgether t save these animals, that may sn be the nly way anyne will see them.”
    What is the text mainly abut?
    Wild animals are at a high risk f dying ut.
    Animals’ ppularity in life causes their decrease.
    Effrts are made t prtect animals in danger.
    Animal images are used in marketing.
    What shuld cmpanies d accrding t Curchamp?
    Use animals fr marketing purpses.
    Spare sme earnings t prtect animals.
    Avid prviding infrmatin abut animals.
    Cntribute themselves t marketing research.
    Why des the authr mentin “Sphia the giraffe” baby tys?
    T prve these baby tys are a hit in France.
    T advertise fr the baby tys amng readers.
    T shw the difference between virtual and real ppulatin.
    T indicate giraffes rank higher than ther animals in France.
    What des the underlined wrd “that” in the last paragraph refer t?
    Raising animals at hme.
    A clse lk at the animals.
    Expsure t animals in the wild.
    Animals’ appearance in the media.

    Snwflakes dancing in the sky, it was an awfully cld winter. Mary felt as gray as the sky utside. She struggled t get by the tugh winter because her bills went up while her incme went dwn.

As Mary prepared t sit dwn and eat half f her remaining fd, she heard a knck at the dr. Wh culd it be n such a freezing night? Rbbery scenes frm films flashed acrss her mind. Then Mary shk her head and laughed at her flish thught---n rbber wuld chse her as a target. Opening the dr, she saw a stranger standing utside, bdy trembling with cld.
    “Madam, srry t disturb yu, but I'm lst and get stuck in the snw. Culd yu please spare a piece f bread?" the stranger asked cautiusly and plitely in a weak but deep vice.
    “I'm afraid nt,” said Mary, “but I culd make yu a peanut butter and banana sandwich.”
    “That sunds wnderful,” the stranger answered. "Mind if I wait here n the prch?”
    “Yes, I d mind,” Mary replied, "but yu culd cme in and eat it at the table.”
    Nt expecting bth fd and warmth, the stranger entered the huse eagerly. Mary hurried ff t the kitchen fr the last fur pieces f bread, peanut butter, and bananas. In a few minutes, she returned and invited him t sit dwn t eat what she culd ffer. After eating, the man thanked and said gdbye t her.
    Lking utside, Mary hesitated a mment and said, "If yu dn't mind, yu can sleep n the sfa.” "That wuld be gd enugh," respnded the man gratefully.
